to pypi

[slate swan]

oh, great!

manage_channels

lemme check 1 moment

[final iron]

Ew

Why do people use pycord anyway

It's one of the worst forks

[slate swan]

highly advertised and the name is pretty decent

cant talk about features cause there's nothing too amazing there

[slate swan]

I think the name is just too shit

!pip pycord , imagine installing this instead of pycord

[unkempt canyon]

pycord v0.1.1

Convenient wrapper on top of FFmpeg

[slate swan]

lmfao

anyways, its always me who is working with a module built upon good intentions

[slate swan]

sad dpy noises

[final iron]

How do you even install pycord

[slate swan]

!pip py-cord

[unkempt canyon]

py-cord v1.7.3

A Python wrapper for the Discord API

[slate swan]

wao

[final iron]

Huh

Were they too lazy to edit the pypi?

[slate swan]

for everyone role?

!d discord.abc.GuildChannel.permissions_for

[unkempt canyon]

discord.abc.GuildChannel.permissions\_for

permissions_for(obj, /)```
Handles permission resolution for the [`Member`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/api.html#discord.Member "discord.Member") or [`Role`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/api.html#discord.Role "discord.Role").

This function takes into consideration the following cases...

[slate swan]

no

[final iron]

Nobody is going to spoonfeed you code

[limber isle]

What you mean good intnetions

What is wrong with Pycord? xD

[slate swan]

i said it because

!pypi hikari

[unkempt canyon]

hikari v2.0.0.dev105

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

[slate swan]

read the description

[slate swan]

slow development/other better forks existing

!d asyncio.sleep would be better

[unkempt canyon]

asyncio.sleep

coroutine asyncio.sleep(delay, result=None)```
Block for *delay* seconds.

If *result* is provided, it is returned to the caller when the coroutine completes.

`sleep()` always suspends the current task, allowing other tasks to run.

Setting the delay to 0 provides an optimized path to allow other tasks to run. This can be used by long-running functions to avoid blocking the event loop for the full duration of the function call.

Deprecated since version 3.8, removed in version 3.10: The `loop` parameter. This function has been implicitly getting the current running loop since 3.7. See [What’s New in 3.10’s Removed section](https://docs.python.org/3/whatsnew/3.10.html#whatsnew310-removed) for more information.

Example of coroutine displaying the current date every second for 5 seconds:

[final iron]

No features and their slash command implementation is bad imo

[limber isle]

Well, hikari is not a fork so it uses very different implementation. interactions.py is nice but lacking on their discord data models. last I checked pycord and disnake were almost the same but pycord seemed to move faster so I went with pycord

[slate swan]

pycord initially started well

[limber isle]

There is also nextcord which I also thought seemed like pycord but at slower development

[slate swan]

member.created_at.timestamp()

Is this in seconds?

[keen talon]

Yeah 😆

[final iron]

...

[final iron]

It's in Unix time

[slate swan]

How do I make it so it's Days?

[final iron]

!e
import datetime
print(datetime.datetime.now().timestamp())

[unkempt canyon]

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

1643562077.934694

[final iron]

Convert the timestamp to days

[slate swan]

How?

[final iron]

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

[slate swan]

-_-

Does anyone know how to convert unix time to days?

!e
import datetime
import time
print(time.time() - timestamp() // 86400)

[unkempt canyon]

@slate swan :x: Your eval job has completed with return code 1.

[final iron]

#python-discussion

[slate swan]

nvm it's seconds -_-

time.time() - member.created_at.timestamp() // 86400

Will this work?

[final iron]

You tell me

[slate swan]

!e
import time
print(time.time())

[unkempt canyon]

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

1643562606.7080872

[final iron]

You might be able to use strftime

[slate swan]

!e
import time
print(time.time() // 84600)

[unkempt canyon]

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

[unkempt canyon]

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

2022/01/01/30/22

[final iron]

Okay what did I do wrong

Doesn't matter

[slate swan]

!e
import time
print(time.time().strftime("%Y/%m/%D"))

[unkempt canyon]

@slate swan :x: Your eval job has completed with return code 1.

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Try it

[slate swan]

Do you want to not allow those perms?

@slate swan

permoverwrite = member:discord.PermissionOverwrite(view_channel=True, connect=True, move_members=True, manage_channels=True, mute_members=True, deafen_members=True, manage_permissions=True, use_voice_activation=True)

I use this

@slate swan

@bot.command()
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(‘vouches.txt')

   user = (f"{ctx.author.mention} vouched {user} reason: {vouchs} ")
vouchs += 1
print(f"{user} | {vouchs}")
o.write(f"{user}\n")``` I’m kinda dumb and bad at py

[quaint epoch]

guys quick how can i download an attachment from a message to my device?

[maiden fable]

!d discord.Attachment.save

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Attachment.save

await save(fp, *, seek_begin=True, use_cached=False)```
This function is a [*coroutine*](https://docs.python.org/3/library/asyncio-task.html#coroutine).

Saves this attachment into a file-like object.

[quaint epoch]

thnx

[slate swan]

How can i set if arg3 not "123" or "abc":

[slim ibex]

!or

[unkempt canyon]

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

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

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

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

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

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

[solid crypt]

Yo ppl

i need some help anyone here

[slate swan]

isnt...

[solid crypt]

guys

i need help

pls i beg u

https://tenor.com/view/tn-j-gif-23950225

damn

def check(r: discord.Reaction, u: Union[discord.Member, discord.User]):
return u.id == ctx.author.id and r.message.channel.id == ctx.channel.id and
str(r.emoji) in [""]

uh bruh how do i do the code thingy

[slim ibex]

What do you need help with? Don’t say you need help and not say what the issue is

[solid crypt]

uh true mb

well i need help with this code Below. so basically its for a message being sent. user types $RR and the game starts. Message with the reaction appears. When this appears i want 7 memebers to react to it and all those 7 to be put into a list

def check(r: discord.Reaction, u: Union[discord.Member, discord.User]):
return u.id == ctx.author.id and r.message.channel.id == ctx.channel.id and
str(r.emoji) in [""]

i have put the unicode for the cat emoji dont worry about it. it just transforms into it in discord

[slim ibex]

why are you doing Union for the member and user objects

[solid crypt]

i used this of a doc in github. wanted to pick up the union but wasnt sure if it makes a diff

[slate swan]

@slim ibex i have
if arg3 == 'free': and
if arg3 == 'free1':
how can i check
if arg3 not 'free' or 'free1':

[solid crypt]

should i remove like one of them and leave one in there?

[quaint epoch]

does os.rename return the edited file

[slim ibex]

!d os.rename

[unkempt canyon]

os.rename

os.rename(src, dst, *, src_dir_fd=None, dst_dir_fd=None)```
Rename the file or directory *src* to *dst*. If *dst* exists, the operation will fail with an [`OSError`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/exceptions.html#OSError "OSError") subclass in a number of cases:

On Windows, if *dst* exists a [`FileExistsError`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/exceptions.html#FileExistsError "FileExistsError") is always raised.

On Unix, if *src* is a file and *dst* is a directory or vice-versa, an [`IsADirectoryError`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/exceptions.html#IsADirectoryError "IsADirectoryError") or a [`NotADirectoryError`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/exceptions.html#NotADirectoryError "NotADirectoryError") will be raised respectively. If both are directories and *dst* is empty, *dst* will be silently replaced. If *dst* is a non-empty directory, an [`OSError`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/exceptions.html#OSError "OSError") is raised. If both are files, *dst* it will be replaced silently if the user has permission. The operation may fail on some Unix flavors if *src* and *dst* are on different filesystems. If successful, the renaming will be an atomic operation (this is a POSIX requirement).

[slim ibex]

you want to check if the arg isn’t free or free1?

[slate swan]

yes

[slim ibex]

try if (“free”, “free1”) not in arg3:

Can I see the function where this arg3 is

[solid crypt]

yo @slim ibex u mind helping me with the code after u helped others? i also need a second person to try out the code with but if you cant its fine i totally understand

[slate swan]

dont work

[slim ibex]

can I see more code?

and I don’t think this is the right channel if it isn’t related to discord bots @slate swan

But I’ll help

[slim ibex]

ok

[solid crypt]

tq

whenever u are ready

i can invite u to my server so we test it out there

if u comfortable with that

[tidal hawk]

Does anyone know how to respond nothing to a interaction in disnake?
I could create interaction.send_message(content=''), but i think there's more proper way for it

[slim ibex]

do you not want the interaction to do anything? What do you mean by respond nothing

[slate swan]

if arg3 == 'free':
free = discord.Embed(title=f"McBott")
await ctx.channel.send(embed=free)
if arg3 == 'free1':
free1 = discord.Embed(title=f"McBott")
await ctx.channel.send(embed=free1)
@slim ibex

[tidal hawk]

i want the user to press multiple buttons before bot starting to respond

Right now bot starts to think for 5 seconds, and gives interaction failure

[slate swan]

all work but i cant check if (“free”, “free1”) not in arg3:

[slim ibex]

An else statement should be fine

Because if the first two if’s aren’t true then it will run the else

and replace the second if with elif

[tidal hawk]

I'm sure i need to respond with something here

[slate swan]

if fixed

[tidal hawk]

in other library, i had to respond with type 6,

[slate swan]

(“free”, “free1”) not in arg3:
(“free” or “free1”) not in arg3:

Xd

[slim ibex]

!d disnake.ui.Select.min_values

[unkempt canyon]

disnake.ui.Select.min\_values

property min_values: int```
The minimum number of items that must be chosen for this select menu.

[slim ibex]

@tidal hawk

[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('vouches.txt')

  user = (f"{ctx.author.mention} vouched {user} reason: {vouchs} ")
  vouchs += 1
  print(f"{user} | {vouchs}")
  o.write(f"{user}\n")```


It’s not sending vouches to file

[solid crypt]

@slim ibex yo btw i cant send you a message in dms to invite u to my server. accept my friend req

nvm u have to add me as friend cause i cant send u a req

[slate swan]

because you arent opening the file in append/write mode and also, time.sleep may break your bot

[slate swan]

Sleep doesn’t affect it + write should work

[slate swan]

but you are opening the file in read mode

[slate swan]

sleep does affect it

[tidal hawk]

Can disnake respond to context command with ephemeral true?

[slate swan]

time.sleep isnt async and will stop your whole code

[slate swan]

no you can only send ephemeral msgs on interactions

[tidal hawk]

:(

[slate swan]

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

[tidal hawk]

going to use slash commands then

Damn whoever recommended disnake to me.. I love you.

[slate swan]

👁️ 👁️

[quick gust]

welcome to the disnake gang, we will turn every pycord user to a disnake lover

[slate swan]

lmao

[slate swan]

lmao😂

[marsh kestrel]

how do i code in jobs to my discord bot? im very new to python and i only watched a 1 hour tutorial

[echo wasp]

I would recommend learning python before you tackle discord.py

[abstract wave]

!code

!code

[slate swan]

youll need to have intermediate python, oop and asynchronous programming knowledge

[tidal hawk]

What's the best reliable bot hosting service out there?

And why everybody hatin' Heroku

[hybrid fjord]

how do i do this?

could someone link the docs for it?

[full lily]

I think this interaction is brand new

[hybrid fjord]

i know, is there a library for it yet?

[tidal hawk]

Look's like Select but not sure how those keywords are in Computer Science

[limber isle]

Pycord has them, it is a select with multiple select options

[slim ibex]

Vultr

[limber isle]

I top that, I have been using Vultr for a long time now

although I have heard about them being a little overpriced

I recommend their 5 dollar plan either way

[slate swan]

it isnt just made for hosting bots

[slim ibex]

Vultr does require some setup and minimal Linux knowledge if you deploy to a Linux server

[slate swan]

you can get a decent vps for 3 dollars too

[marsh kestrel]

can i dm someone my code and the problem that pops up cuz im over the character limit

[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.

[marsh kestrel]

ok

[final iron]

No clue how to get those things in computer science

[slate swan]

Where? You just send those whole class.

[teal plank]

i need help with something

[slate swan]

do not ask to ask

[cloud dawn]

Refer to that same message.

You are giving me a whole class, do you got something specific?

nvm i found it.

I was asking about the multiple options section.

[teal plank]

[tidal hawk]

Can you run multiple bots on 1 plan?

@slim ibex

[slim ibex]

yes
i believe so

i got a free $100 dollar credit which is more than enouugh for many bots

[potent spear]

what site?

like most sites have "starts credit" to work with, but this expires within a set period of time ofc

[limber isle]

Yea I also got those $100, it expired after 30 days, so about over half a year ago

x)

and yes you can

[potent spear]

I have 6 months left on the free AWS EC2 trial

but my bot is private, so I don't have to worry about usage etc

[limber isle]

although I am not sure about scaling up

I only make bots for my servers, I have about 4/5 bots running at the same time together with a radis db

this is what you get with 5 dollars

[potent spear]

I'll only ever pay for a hosting service if it generates income for me

[potent spear]

what's the download speed like?

[solemn holly]

Does anyone know why my image is being sent separate while it should be in the embed as a thumbnail?

import instaloader
import discord
from discord.ext import commands
import os

client = commands.Bot(command_prefix='.')

@client.event
async def on_ready():
    print('bot ready')

@client.command(name='user')
async def get(ctx, username):
    l = instaloader.Instaloader()
    profile = instaloader.Profile.from_username(l.context, username)

    l.download_profile(username, profile_pic_only=True)
    for filename in os.listdir(username):
        f = os.path.join(username, filename)
        if f.endswith('.jpg'):
            break

    print(f)

    embed = discord.Embed(
        title = f'@{username}',
        color = discord.Color.purple()
    )

    file = discord.File(f, filename=f)

    embed.add_field(name='User ID', value=profile.userid, inline=True)
    embed.add_field(name='Followers', value=profile.followers, inline=False)
    embed.add_field(name='Following', value=profile.followees, inline=False)
    embed.add_field(name='Posts', value=profile.mediacount, inline=False)
    embed.set_thumbnail(url=f'attachment://{f}')

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

It should look like this

[final iron]

Use the thumbnail method

!d discord.Embed.set_thumbnail

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Embed.set\_thumbnail

set_thumbnail(*, url)```
Sets the thumbnail for the embed content.

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

Changed in version 1.4: Passing [`Empty`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/api.html#discord.Embed.Empty "discord.Embed.Empty") removes the thumbnail.

[solemn holly]

I am right

[potent spear]

you are indeed

[solemn holly]

So I don't know what's going on haha

[quaint epoch]

does disnake.FFmpegOpusAudio.from_probe accept file paths?

[potent spear]

besides whatever is going on, your download code is blocking
and it's also not that useful to save that image, as you only have to send it...

[limber isle]

Eh, it is alright, never had it be an issue

[limber isle]

5 dollars is cheaper then Netflix, but I get more out of running my bots then watching Netflix

so to each their own

¯_(ツ)_/¯

[potent spear]

what has that have to do with each other?

[solemn holly]

Yeah ur right

But scraping the image url from an instagram page seems kinda complicated lol, but I'll try

[potent spear]

just look for an async wrapper or run the blocking code in executor

[limber isle]

As in I enjoy minor devops and bot coding as hobby, and I get fun out of it

[potent spear]

I get that, you just rather code and spend money on that than do nothing and spend money on a streaming service

[limber isle]

Yup, pretty much x)

[tidal hawk]

Do you guys earn money by creating bots?

[vale wing]

Some work at freelance

Some add purchasable stuff and earn money from it

[tidal hawk]

mhm

Thinking about learning bots in nodejs, so I can integrate websites with them 🤔

[vale wing]

You can integrate websites with python bots as well why not

[slim ibex]

you can do thesame with python

flask exists

[vale wing]

API generally

[slim ibex]

mhmmh

[tidal hawk]

I mean if the website & bot is in same language, it's bit easier to integrate them with eachother

[vale wing]

Maybe you are right in some terms

But imo python bots are more convenient to write than nodejs

[tidal hawk]

Mhm

[vale wing]

What site

[vale wing]

Totally, there are different options for that. Personally I use screen multiplexer which is really easy

[slim ibex]

vultr

[vale wing]

Ok ima check it out

Need some free server

[tidal hawk]

Heroku 😋

[final iron]

Oracle free tier

You get like 4 cores and 24gb of ram

[vale wing]

What the heck

I just got 8gb ram server on digital ocean for free xdxdxdxd

Rules

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

[plucky shoal]

It's very much against discord tos

[dry kelp]

i do this on my own risk

i know they are against tos

but is not for something bad

i just tryna create a loop

[plucky shoal]

We still don't help with them here

[slim ibex]

remove bot = False

[cold sonnet]

you don't get it, do you

[potent spear]

selfbots are against ToS and pretty useless if you'd ask me

[cold sonnet]

they could be useful

even too useful

[limber isle]

Yep, that is how everyone keeps getting scam messages

[potent spear]

The only thing they could "exploit" is other bots systems

[cold sonnet]

and you could bump your server with it every 2 hours on disboard

[potent spear]

still not useful

[cold sonnet]

I find that useful

[limber isle]

They can scrape member lists

I mean, to someone with good intentions they are useless

imo

[vale wing]

Selfbot with AI chatbot embedded is interesting tho 😏

[potent spear]

scamming or free advertisement isn't useful

and a chatBOT... what's in a name?

[limber isle]

lmao

You know something I have always wanted to find but every time I looked for it I would only find SelfBots

BotSelfs

[vale wing]

The only fun thing about selfbots is you can send embeds from non bot account

[potent spear]

still not useful

[limber isle]

that is sometime I would like to find on github

[cold sonnet]

if you're famous and you wanna answer everyone without answering anyone

[vale wing]

I never said it's useful 🙄

[potent spear]

in that case, you have managers lol

[cold sonnet]

u give them your account?

[potent spear]

why would you even want to answer everyone if it isn't coming from you?

[vale wing]

I once made a simple AI responder for a bot but it went aids

[cold sonnet]

tell them to speak to someone else

[potent spear]

happens all the time, especially with posting content to prevent getting "cancelled"

[potent spear]

lmao, that's pretty much a voicemail

[cold sonnet]

but on your own account cuz people are dumb enough to message you

[potent spear]

you can always try

[cold sonnet]

why are we talking about the priorities of something illegal

[limber isle]

I agree, we should talk about this

x)

[cold sonnet]

what's that

what are those lmao

[limber isle]

Like where people make interfaces to talk through a bot

[cold sonnet]

oh

well I've seen one of those but idk how he did it

and I think it's just as much against ToS as selfbots

[limber isle]

I never found anyone saying that it is against ToS

[cold sonnet]

did you find anyone talking about it

[limber isle]

also It doesnt make much sense for it to be against ToS, because there is nothing privileged about a bot

[cold sonnet]

it's free nitro

[limber isle]

yep, free nitro in all the servers you are admin sure

You cant even join servers without people adding you

Would be a pretty pathetic nitro experience xD

[cold sonnet]

well

[cold sonnet]

sending embeds

oops

got his account terminated in a day

I think

not sure, his name still appears

[limber isle]

Can't you do that with also tos breaking alternative clients?

[cold sonnet]

no, his account still exists

[limber isle]

Like better discord

[cold sonnet]

did you say that cuz of my screenshot

[limber isle]

Yeah

[cold sonnet]

damnit

[limber isle]

What? xD

[cold sonnet]

nobody has to know

[velvet tinsel]

can't discord sue betterdiscord?

[cold sonnet]

yeah they can

but they don't

it's like youtube and ytdl

[velvet tinsel]

ok

there is a YouTube API, don't know why they use ytdl

[cold sonnet]

don't you need an API key for that

[velvet tinsel]

idk

ytdl breaks youtube TOS

I think pydis is trying to strain the use of ytdl as much as possible

!ytdl

[unkempt canyon]

[wicked atlas]

you can't download videos with the youtube api

[velvet tinsel]

ytdl breaches ToS

[wicked atlas]

yeah, i know

[velvet tinsel]

why do people even use it

[wicked atlas]

because it lets them download videos

[limber isle]

😂

what am i doing wrong ://

[cold sonnet]

there's no such thing as a channel for a member

maybe after.voice.id?

[vale wing]

I thought you can eval async code can't you 🤨

Or I did something wrong

[cold sonnet]

you can't

[vale wing]

You need to provide a string into the title param, not a whole new embed lol

[rare saddle]

Then the private channel is not created

[cold sonnet]

whaaaat

what lib are you using?

[vale wing]

Um what args does that event even accept

[solemn holly]

What do you mean? Sorry I'm confused

embed = discord.Embed(
        title = discord.Embed(title='(google)[https://google.com]', description='Sample text'),
        color = discord.Color.purple()

Is this still wrong?

[rare saddle]

When a person enters the voice channel, the bot should create a voice channel with the name of the author and move it there

[cold sonnet]

after and before

[cold sonnet]

as in dpy, they are both member objects

in disnake, they are VoiceStates

Is there a way to code a discord bot to search a website for somethin? For example Im coding a bot for an equestrian server, and one of the things we want is have a command where we put the name of the racehorse we want searched, and it comes up with information or a link to that horses page on the website equibase

[cold sonnet]

I see, I thought you used dpy

[vale wing]

[cold sonnet]

no bass kwarg or anything

[rocky trench]

I see

[cold sonnet]

the module

you have to get the audio boosted before playing it

[rocky trench]

I found this on google: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/39607741/ffmpeg-how-to-reduce-bass-and-increase-treble-like-audacity

[cold sonnet]

oh well ask that somewhere else now

[rocky trench]

Yh indeed

[cold sonnet]

we are specialised of discord bots

[cosmic flume]

so I tired following a youtube tutorial to make a bot but it doesn't want to run at all and won't let me name the secondary file .env

[rocky trench]

Pretty much same. I got a public discord bot almost ready for launch

[cold sonnet]

seems like a youtube tutorial of 2014

[cold sonnet]

url kwarg, not file

youtube tutorials suck

i'm screaming at the screen because of the lack of PEP8

[green bluff]

how to attatch a file then

[cold sonnet]

well I don't use pep8 either, I've got my own habits

[green bluff]

how to set image as a file

[slim ibex]

🗿

[cold sonnet]

!local-file

[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.

[cold sonnet]

SORRY

[slim ibex]

don't be sorry. moai is here

[cold sonnet]

I'm a beginner with a year of experience

[slate swan]

Ffmpeg is a tool for working with audio files

[green bluff]

what if my file is made

like my bot has made the image

[cold sonnet]

save it

[green bluff]

it doesnt have a path

how would i save it

[cosmic flume]

so what should I input?

[cold sonnet]

first of all, don't use repl.it

[green bluff]

i already have this

[cold sonnet]

and no env file is required

only if you wanna post it on github publicly

[green bluff]

mc.save

[cold sonnet]

add a filename kwarg to the discord.File()

file = discord.File("/this/is/path/to/my/file.png", filename="file.png")
embed.set_image(url="attachment://file.png")

[green bluff]

ohhh ok

[cold sonnet]

and your send needs a file kwarg too

it's kinda weird

[green bluff]

like this

[cosmic flume]

github would have it work properly I assume if this other site isn't going run it
the .env was to keep the token private ^^

[cold sonnet]

this seems exactly like it

[green bluff]

perfect thanks

[cold sonnet]

👍🏿

[green bluff]

how to mention in embeds

i tried {member.mention}

but it just shows the @ plus the id

ripppppp

[vocal snow]

Mentions will render in the embed description or field values but they won't actually ping

[green bluff]

oh no this a test , in the actual one its on an on_member_join event

also i get this error

[potent spear]

what's not clear about the error?

ctrl+f on that, people who have seeked help previously about this topic probably do

[green bluff]

uh i dont know how to display the number of members in the guild

isnt it member.guild_count

[potent spear]

where would the logic be in that? the attribute name makes no sense

close

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Guild.members

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

[green bluff]

no it used to work

[potent spear]

it's because you forgot something

[green bluff]

this was my old imasge

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Guild.member\_count

property member_count: int```
Returns the true member count regardless of it being loaded fully or not.

Warning

Due to a Discord limitation, in order for this attribute to remain up-to-date and accurate, it requires [`Intents.members`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/api.html#discord.Intents.members "discord.Intents.members") to be specified.

[potent spear]

member.guild**.member**_count

[green bluff]

oh

[potent spear]

makes more sense, right?

[green bluff]

yea

perfect ty

[green bluff]

just a test command why isnt this formatted

nvm

Hi, a quick question, how can i async my youtube downloads in pytube?
like i am trying to download a couple of videos from a playlist but it keeps blocking my bot from responding to other commands

[unkempt canyon]

Per Python Discord's Rule 5, we are unable to assist with questions related to youtube-dl, pytube, or other YouTube video downloaders, as their usage violates YouTube's Terms of Service.

how can I check a user for a sertain role in a role list? But also return the sertain role?

I tried doing

if author.roles in info.roleList:

but when I have role names in roleList, it doesnt work. But if I have role objects, I just get a syntac error.

[final iron]

Loop through the list and compare

!e

author_roles = ["a", "b", "c", "1"]
roles = ["j", "1", "b"]
for i in author_roles:
    if i in roles:
        print(i)

[unkempt canyon]

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

001 | b
002 | 1

[pliant gulch]

!e ```py
roles1 = set([1, 2, 3])
roles2 = set([2, 3])

print(roles1.intersection(roles2))

[unkempt canyon]

@pliant gulch :white_check_mark: Your eval job has completed with return code 0.

{2, 3}

[pliant gulch]

You can use set here because it's 100% that a member does not have the same role twice

[final iron]

Oh interesting

You learn something new every day

[gentle badger]

How to mention a role in a message

In the bot's message

someone?

[limber isle]

What code is responsible for sending the message?

@gentle badger

[gentle badger]

in line 35

[limber isle]

alright, so where are you getting the role from

are you just hardcoding?

if so

role_id = ...
await message.channel.send(f'<@{role_id}>')

[gentle badger]

OK thanks

[slate swan]

!d discord.Role.mention

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Role.mention

property mention: str```
Returns a string that allows you to mention a role.

[slate swan]

Another way to do it is <@&role_id>

[frank tartan]

im confused on how i can apply sets to my code

[pliant gulch]

I construct the set's with a list for each one. You can imagine the lists instead has the roleList and roles in your situation

[limber isle]

OH yeah my bad, it would be f'<@&{role_id}>'

[frank tartan]

still confused ;/

[pliant gulch]

Same thing up here, just construct the sets with your list of roles, e.g author.roles and info.roleLIst

[frank tartan]

so would roles1 be author.roles? or info.roleList?

[pliant gulch]

You'd check the intersection on the info.roleList to author.roles

[frank tartan]

so like

returnedRole = info.roleList.intersection(author.roles)

?

[pliant gulch]

you need to actually construct the sets

[frank tartan]

so

authorRoles = set(author.roles)
roleList = set(["member", "moderator", "verified"])

returnedRole = info.roleList.intersection(authorRoles)

[pliant gulch]

Your checking the intersection on info.roleList, not the newly created set roleList and your roleList is a set of strs, not a set of discord.Role objects which is what author.roles is

Once you fix those two it will capture the intersection of the two sets into returnedRole

[frank tartan]

so returnedRole will have any roles that are in both lists?

[frank tartan]

also, i get a syntac error when i try to put role objects in a list

[pliant gulch]

Yes.

[pliant gulch]

Can you show what info.roleList is

[frank tartan]

alr, ty for the help 🙂

[frank tartan]

sure

roleList = [<Role id=926477597355962401 name='member', <Role id=926477597372727374 name="mod"]

it looks like that. I got this stuff from this command

@client.command()
@commands.has_permissions(administrator=True)
async def roleINFORMATION(ctx, type=None):
    client.memberList = []

    await ctx.reply("Working...")

    amount = len(info.roleList)
    i = 0
    for i in range(0, amount):
        try:
            role = discord.utils.get(ctx.guild.roles, name=info.roleList[i])
        except:
            await ctx.reply("You are missing some roles... Please fix them, then redo the command.")
            return
        client.memberList.append(role)
        i = i+1

    await ctx.reply(client.memberList)

[pliant gulch]

Ok, so info.roleList is a list of role objects. Just construct your set with info.roleList like how you did with the author.roles

then check the intersection of info.roleList to the other

[frank tartan]

but i cant even run my code...

when I try to run it says that the line that roleList is on has a syntac error

[pliant gulch]

Can you show the error

[frank tartan]

SyntaxError: invalid syntax

[pliant gulch]

Not a very helpful snippet

hey, could someone explain to me why my code cant load the file commands.py?
this is my main.py file

        pass
# a lot of code and commands... 
# ... 


def setup(bot):
    bot.add_cog(c_cog(bot))

[slim ibex]

first off, follow naming conventions

[final iron]

^

[slim ibex]

class names should be in PascalCase

[final iron]

pep8 is coming to get you

[surreal sierra]

but all the other cogs/files works perfect, just having problem with this one

[slim ibex]

the officer is here!

[final iron]

Don't use bare exceptions!

[slim ibex]

^

[final iron]

pep8 says thats a nono

[slim ibex]

its

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

[surreal sierra]

I have tried that also but it didnt work either

[slim ibex]

your init method isn't even dunder

[slate swan]

or magic method

[atomic zealot]

I have the code for an API, but im confused on how I make the command to search using the API?

[slate swan]

youll have to make a request to the api

[slim ibex]

GET request

[slate swan]

you can use aiohttp for it

[surreal sierra]

and Im using this same way in all my other files for different commands, it works perfect at all those places...

[final iron]

Then you're developing bad habits which is very very bad

[slim ibex]

holy the whole squad showed up

[slate swan]

things working perfectly doesnt mean it can be good

[slim ibex]

code that works isn't always code that is good

[slate swan]

^ theres always something better you can do with it

depends on the commands even if your the owner of the guild it wont affect any command only if theres something in it that will

[surreal sierra]

yeah of course there will always be something better, this was just the way I was learned to do it and that's the reason why I did it in this way. but if this is wrong I will try to change it

[final iron]

It is wrong

[frank tartan]

ok so cuz i couldnt send the whole list, here is just one of them in a variable

C:\Users\toren\OneDrive\Desktop\newCode>python main.py

!pep8 check it out

[unkempt canyon]

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.

[frank tartan]

?

[signal slate]

hi

[pliant gulch]

I'm so confused as to what you are doing here. Just construct your set with the info.roleList variable you have

[frank tartan]

but i cant even run my code, due to the error

[pliant gulch]

Delete that line??

I don't even know what you are trying to do with that

[frank tartan]

so delete roleList?

[pliant gulch]

that's not roleLIst... thats role1

role1

[frank tartan]

i get same error with roleList

[pliant gulch]

Can you show your roleList again

Cause for whatever reason, it changed from the one you showed me before apparently

[frank tartan]

roleList = [<Role id=926477597355962401 name='member', <Role id=926477597372727374 name="mod"]

[frank tartan]

how?

[pliant gulch]

Oh wait that isn't the repr of the role

You copy pasted the repr in roleList instead of having actual role objects.

You need to make roleList have ACTUAL role objects

Once you do that, construct the set then check the intersection

[frank tartan]

??? they are the actual role objects... at least i think so, i get them from this cmd

@client.command()
@commands.has_permissions(administrator=True)
async def roleINFORMATION(ctx, type=None):
    client.memberList = []

    await ctx.reply("Working...")

    amount = len(info.roleList)
    i = 0
    for i in range(0, amount):
        try:
            role = discord.utils.get(ctx.guild.roles, name=info.roleList[i])
        except:
            await ctx.reply("You are missing some roles... Please fix them, then redo the command.")
            return
        client.memberList.append(role)
        i = i+1

    await ctx.reply(client.memberList)

[final iron]

Please read over pep8

[frank tartan]

ok

[final iron]

Function names should not be in camelCase, they should be in snake_case

[slate swan]

use the name kwarg if you want to name your commands that way

[final iron]

Same thing for variables

[pliant gulch]

Wdym they are role objects... Look at this snippet you sent

[frank tartan]

i dont fucking care, dont tell me that

[frank tartan]

now im confused

[final iron]

It's improper

And bad practice

[frank tartan]

i dont fucking care, i prefer camel case

its faster tto type

[slate swan]

they just said that in a normal way, why do you need to be so toxic

[pliant gulch]

Whats to be confused about? You just need to make roleList have actual role objects. You did something weird and copy pasted the repr's of some roles into the list.

reprs are representations of an object. Not the object itself

[frank tartan]

1. your making me confused about the role object stuff
2. so i need to do role = ~~~~~ that stuff?

and if so, how do i hard code that in?

[slim ibex]

don't make the pep8 officer mad

[final iron]

When a user has a default avatar it returns None

[pliant gulch]

For an example, role = guild.get_role(123) here, role has captured an ACTUAL role object. not <Role, ...>

[slate swan]

Member does not have a avatar , use member.display_avatar maybe

[final iron]

Consider using display_avatar instead as it will always return an avatar

[frank tartan]

so then why when i print role i get the <Role, stuff?

[final iron]

!d disnake.Member.display_avatar

[unkempt canyon]

disnake.Member.display\_avatar

property display_avatar: disnake.asset.Asset```
Returns the member’s display avatar.

For regular members this is just their avatar, but if they have a guild specific avatar then that is returned instead.

New in version 2.0.

[pliant gulch]

That's the representation, print will send the return of __str__ or __repr__ in that order. Again > reprs are representations of an object. Not the object itself

[final iron]

andy is so smart smh

[frank tartan]

now im even more confused ;-;

[slate swan]

https://github.com/DisnakeDev/disnake/blob/master/disnake/role.py#L211-L213

[unkempt canyon]

disnake/role.py lines 211 to 213

def __repr__(self) -> str:
    return f"<Role id={self.id} name={self.name!r}>"```

[pliant gulch]

Have you learned the basics of object oriented programming?

[frank tartan]

i dont use disnake

[final iron]

It's the same

[slate swan]

Doesn't matter ,it's same.

[frank tartan]

no idea what that is

[final iron]

...

[frank tartan]

what? i was never told i needed to learn it

[final iron]

It's one of the fundamentals needed for discord.py

[slate swan]

It's basic python, not limited to discord.py

[slim ibex]

^

[slate swan]

python is based on objects ...

[frank tartan]

well i never learned that stuff in my python class, my online or in person classes

[slate swan]

did you learn classes?

everything in python is an object

[frank tartan]

-_-

[slate swan]

....

[final iron]

!e

print(type("a"))

[slate swan]

what was that even supposed to imply?

[unkempt canyon]

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

<class 'str'>

[frank tartan]

nvm, goodbyue

[final iron]

See, object

[slim ibex]

this dude

[final iron]

I don't think he learned the fundamentals

[slate swan]

Atleast they may try to learn it after being asked to :)

[final iron]

I doubt it, barely anyone actually does. I understand why, you don't want to go back to learning basics after you tasted the sweet nectar of an interesting project

It's understandable but people should actually try

[slate swan]

its ok if they dont master it, but having a basic idea is always good

I have downloaded dotenv multiple time
can someone help me here

[final iron]

Why do you need it?

[slate swan]

I was taking code from a website

I'm new to this

[final iron]

You don't need it

[slate swan]

oh

okay

only replit does since its public

and you should use the bot framework

meh you dont require that even in replit

just use os.getenv

or os.environ

yeah

[final iron]

Why do people even use replit

Just use the oracle free tier

Boom, free hosting

[echo wasp]

How do I help this person?

I can,xt fix it without an error code

[final iron]

Tell them to join this channel

[echo wasp]

@silk lynx

There

[final iron]

State your issue, any errors and what you need

[slate swan]

and your code

[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.

[final iron]

Channel is dead

Give me code to troubleshoot

I'm bored af

[slate swan]

do homework like me

[final iron]

I only have a group project

And my group members are being (redacted) and not working

[pliant gulch]

Refactor my discord APIs event parsers, they are kind of bland

[final iron]

I think thats a bit too complicated for me

[slate swan]

Can someone please help me

[final iron]

Don't ask to ask, just ask

[slate swan]

So I have this error in my bot project it says couldn’t find module when i literally put the module as what I should put

@final iron

[final iron]

Wrong server

We only help with Python code

!guilds

[unkempt canyon]

Communities

The communities page on our website contains a number of communities we have partnered with as well as a curated list of other communities relating to programming and technology.

[slate swan]

Oh

[final iron]

Check in here, they might have a server for js

discord.gg/djs

@slate swan

Here

[final iron]

Both

[final iron]

This channel died hard

[slate swan]

always does at this time

[maiden fable]

Mind helping me?

[slate swan]

feel free to facepalm but I'm new at discord.py and I want to make a command which reads values, how do I do it?

[spring flax]

!d discord.ext.commands.Bot.wait_for

[unkempt canyon]

discord.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 v3.9)"). 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 v3.9)") 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 v3.9)") containing those arguments is returned instead. Please check the [documentation](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/api.html#discord-api-events) for a list of events and their parameters.

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

[spring flax]

You'd have to use that ^, input() won't work for a discord bot

[slate swan]

thanks

[brave ravine]

Cannot have install fields on a private application what does that mean

its on the discord dev/app portal for my bot

[maiden fable]

Mind showing?

[brave ravine]

it pops up when i try to change my bot from public to private

[pliant gulch]

You have to remove your “add server” first before setting to private

[brave ravine]

thank you

[karmic lintel]

my buttons are not arranged in row the are arranged in columns

@slate swan

[slate swan]

which library

[karmic lintel]

discord-components

[slate swan]

user discord.py beta and use views

that library will stop working soon

as discord.py will be dead

[karmic lintel]

i just wanna know can i increase width of my embed?

[karmic lintel]

why?

[green bluff]

@client.command()
async def pdoubles(ctx):
    mc = Image.open("teamcard.png")
    
    font = ImageFont.truetype("playfair-font.ttf", 55)
    channel = ctx.author.voice.channel

    members = channel.members


    memberlist = [] 
    for member in members:
        memberlist.append(member.mention)

    random.shuffle(memberlist)
    team11 = memberlist[0:1]
    team12 = memberlist[1:2]
    team21 = memberlist[2:3]
    team22 = memberlist[3:4]
 

    

    draw = ImageDraw.Draw(mc)
    draw.text((48,106),f"{team11}",(220,20,60),font=font)
    draw.text((290,313),f"#",(220,20,60),font=font)

    
    
    




    
    mc.save("profile.png")
    

    file = discord.File("profile.png", filename="nice.png")


    embed = discord.Embed(title=f'Welcome',description=f'{ctx.author}', colour = discord.Colour.green())
    embed.set_image(url="attachment://nice.png")
    await ctx.send(file=file, embed=embed)

why doesnt this send the embed

[slate swan]

How come this no work? I wanna announce a gg message everytime we get 100 members.

So 1000, 1100, etc.

[spring flax]

First of all
[member.mention for member in channel.members]

[green bluff]

so

for member in channel.members:

member.mention?

[green bluff]

?

[slate swan]

is it possible to have to prefixes ?
for one bot
like +one, -one

[maiden fable]

U can pass in a list to command_prefix

[slate swan]

How good are you with bot code?

[maiden fable]

You can ask yr question directly (:

[slate swan]

Well I was trying to make a command like when I invoke it, the bot sends a dm to the owner of every guild my bot is in containing my message and I’ve tried so many things and none of them worked and now I’m just looking to see if anyone knows code for one…

[maiden fable]

I won't code directly but I can help u do so

!d discord.Client.guilds

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Client.guilds

property guilds: List[discord.guild.Guild]```
The guilds that the connected client is a member of.

[maiden fable]

!d discord.Guild.owner

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Guild.owner

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

[burnt heath]

i need help w this

[maiden fable]

If the owner is returning None, then that means that y need members intent

[maiden fable]

The token is wrong

[burnt heath]

i regened

[maiden fable]

!pypi python_dotenv

[unkempt canyon]

python-dotenv v0.19.2

Read key-value pairs from a .env file and set them as environment variables

[burnt heath]

copied

[maiden fable]

Use the load_dotenv() method

[slate swan]

This is what i got ```py
@commands.is_owner()
async def broadcast(ctx, message):
for guild in client.guilds:
# get the owner of guild
owner = guild.owner

    # check if dm exists, if not create it
    if owner.dm_channel is None:
        await owner.create_dm()
  
    # if creation of dm successful
    if owner.dm_channel is not None:
        await owner.dm_channel.send(message)

    for channel in guild.channels:             
        if channel.name == 'general':                 
            await channel.send(message)

[burnt heath]

i install module?

[maiden fable]

Just do

for g in bot.guilds:
    await g.owner.send(...) 

[maiden fable]

Yea, the python_dotenv one

[burnt heath]

k

[slate swan]

Do you have them defined?

[maiden fable]

It takes about an hour for them to get registered

[slate swan]

What program you using?

[maiden fable]

Then what's the issue

[burnt heath]

i installed the module but when i import, it shows eror

[slate swan]

The is_me func isnt checking any condition?

[slate swan]

Nope still won't work

Of course, it has to, dude

[burnt heath]

also can u tell me how to use python_dotenv, i dont really understand, like am i just supposed to add load_dotenv to my code?

[maiden fable]

members intent?

[burnt heath]

i tried to import, results in an error

[slate swan]

!pypi dotenv

[unkempt canyon]

dotenv v0.0.5

Handle .env files

[slate swan]

Yeah, check the ids

[maiden fable]

from dotenv import load_dotenv
load_dotenv()

[maiden fable]

As long as it's returning True, no need to add any other thing tbh

If he doesn't wanna check anything

Might as well remove the check

[slate swan]

Yeah

Check the perms then

[slate swan]

Still won't work

[maiden fable]

Yea changed the code

[maiden fable]

mind printing g.owner?

[slate swan]

what if the dms are closed or the bot isnt in any server

[slate swan]

its not about the guilds

its about the client/bot

[maiden fable]

he is looping through bot.guilds, so only the first part applies

[maiden fable]

wym

[silk lynx]

from dotenv import load_dotenv this is the correct usage

[maiden fable]

Yups

My bad, got confused

[slate swan]

all i can say is most of my code is kind of messy and rn it says bot is not defined when it is

[burnt heath]

still shows

[slate swan]

Sad

[maiden fable]

@burnt heath restart VSCode

It doesn't detect new modules while running

[burnt heath]

ok

[silk lynx]

Restart Vs Code

[maiden fable]

Uhh, self.bot.guilds then

Since u r in a cog

[slate swan]

now it says self is not defind when it is :/ I'm just unlucky

[burnt heath]

i uninstalled, reinstalled, restarted still.

[silk lynx]

Thats strange .... it works fine for me

[burnt heath]

ye it probs is

[grim oar]

Are you using some virtual environment

[burnt heath]

i had the same problem with requests

[burnt heath]

do u mean vm?

[grim oar]

No

[burnt heath]

then'?

[grim oar]

!d venv

[unkempt canyon]

venv

New in version 3.3.

Source code: Lib/venv/

The venv module provides support for creating lightweight “virtual environments” with their own site directories, optionally isolated from system site directories. Each virtual environment has its own Python binary (which matches the version of the binary that was used to create this environment) and can have its own independent set of installed Python packages in its site directories.

See PEP 405 for more information about Python virtual environments.

[burnt heath]

p sure im not using that

[grim oar]

Have you tried running it? Maybe it's the ide's bug

[burnt heath]

guess it isnt

[slate swan]

What code do u have?

[burnt heath]

should i share main.py here?

[grim oar]

No need

[slate swan]

Just DM me it bc that happened to me before

[grim oar]

can you try using pip list and see if dotenv is in there?

[burnt heath]

k wait

yea it isnt

[grim oar]

install it then

[burnt heath]

also im using discord.py, should i just change to pycord

[grim oar]

pip install -U dotenv

discord py is not maintained anymore so yeah use some other lib/fork

[burnt heath]

mmm

that gives error

[grim oar]

Huh

[burnt heath]

ok wait now dot env is there

[grim oar]

and it's working?

[burnt heath]

nope

dont understand this anymore, pip list shows python_dotenv and this shows no module named python_dotenv

[tawdry perch]

Are you in venv by any change?

[burnt heath]

no

[tawdry perch]

Correct python version?

[burnt heath]

3.9?

[tawdry perch]

Have you restarted the vsc?

[burnt heath]

yep

[tawdry perch]

Weird

[slate swan]

You have the dotenv in the wrong place then bc when i had this i just kept moving the dotenv file till i got it right

[burnt heath]

have it in same dir as main.py

wait do u mean the dotenv file? where am i supposed to check that

or the env file where the token is

[slate swan]

Show the latest code

And make sure your bot has the permissions to delete messages

[grim oar]

Well, the error says that dotenv is not installed, it doesn't have anything to do with the env file you have

[burnt heath]

pip list shows dot env is there

[tawdry perch]

And what did you install?

!pypi python-dotenv

[unkempt canyon]

python-dotenv v0.19.2

Read key-value pairs from a .env file and set them as environment variables

[tawdry perch]

This one?

[burnt heath]

yep

[slate swan]

Try doing it again

Installing*

[burnt heath]

done it 2 times

[slate swan]

And restart vsc

[maiden fable]

@burnt heath

[slate swan]

Oh

[burnt heath]

yes

[maiden fable]

You got more than one Python versions?

[burnt heath]

how can i check that

because i think i do

[maiden fable]

Control Panel

[burnt heath]

yeah i hve 3.7

[maiden fable]

Programs and Features

And?

[burnt heath]

3.9

[maiden fable]

There the issue is

[slate swan]

Does it fail to respond?

[maiden fable]

Try running python -V in the cmd prompt

[burnt heath]

oh frick

[maiden fable]

There (:

[burnt heath]

ahhhhh

[maiden fable]

Now do py -3.9 -m pip install python_dotenv

[slate swan]

Hmm, try using dummy prints and see where the error is

[maiden fable]

Who would have guessed about two Python versions

[burnt heath]

tysm @maiden fable

[maiden fable]

(:

[slate swan]

The Hunter

[maiden fable]

BTW uninstall Python 3.7 since its more or less dead (according to me at least)

[maiden fable]

Just a usual thing 🤷‍♀️

[burnt heath]

yep that works yet my final issue isnt resolved, still got about 200more errors to fix

[tawdry perch]

Painful

[slate swan]

Its now saying Self is not defined when it is

[maiden fable]

At least the token issue is fixed

[keen talon]

Sup everyone

[maiden fable]

Lmao Python got a stroke ig

Show a screenshot of the whole cog

[keen talon]

self*

[burnt heath]

idt u can help with this?

[maiden fable]

the token is wrong

[burnt heath]

regen token and put it?

[maiden fable]

Still

I would advise u to put it directly

No need to regen

[maiden fable]

Google uses robots to make sure you are not a robot

[keen talon]

[oblique cobalt]

true

[burnt heath]

ok

[maiden fable]

You buy a better GPU for yr laptop/computer just to see the colors on yr screen sharper and faster

[burnt heath]

the token error got fixed but this.

[maiden fable]

tf?

Lmao

u sure u put the correct token?

[burnt heath]

p sure

[oblique cobalt]

it gives Unauthorized,so i bet he didnt even pass it

[maiden fable]

there must be 2 periods in it

[maiden fable]

He did, its a required arg

[burnt heath]

there arent

[maiden fable]

Then its wrong

The token format is like stuff.stuff.stuff

[burnt heath]

how am i supposed to get it right, i put what regened token gave

[maiden fable]

From where u regened

Mind showing a pic?

[grim oar]

that's client secret most likely

[maiden fable]

Yea

That's what am thinking too

[maiden fable]

Ah thought so

[burnt heath]

wait

[maiden fable]

Hahaha

[burnt heath]

im not supposed to do from there lmao

[maiden fable]

No

Go to the bot tab

Create Bot

Then copy the token

[burnt heath]

ty

[slate swan]

Whole code was the link sent to you which leads to codeshare:/ .......

[maiden fable]
