[slate swan]

did you save and rerun the code>

[rare saddle]

Yes, but the warning didn't go away

[slate swan]

show current code

[slate swan]

and the error that it prints?

[rare saddle]

Everything that outputs

[slate swan]

bot = commands.Bot(stuff_you_have_already , sync_permissions=True)

[slate swan]

thats your issue now, old error has been fixed

no wait

[slate swan]

how long ago did you install disnake?

[novel bolt]

hey , if i use prefix and then type some words separated with space, on using on_command_error i was only able to get the first arg , So
if i use > hi hello ,so it possible to get the whole thing , hi hello

[rare saddle]

I do not remember exactly, I think a month and a half

[slate swan]

update it.

pip install -U disnake

[slate swan]

you want to take multiple words in a single argument for a command>

[rare saddle]

updated

[slate swan]

now rerun it

[rare saddle]

Together with that - bot = commands.Bot(stuff_you_have_already , sync_permissions=True) ?

[slate swan]

yep

[novel bolt]

no i mean , its not for command, like it was for a tts purpose so i want to make it like after prefix the whole sentence i need to get , so...

[rare saddle]

Still the same error

[slate swan]

any code you have currently?

[slate swan]

ill suggest you to ask about it in the disnake server

since it comes from library internals

[novel bolt]

i have made code for tts command, not for error

should i sent?

[slate swan]

yea , and
are you using on_message to construct that command?

[novel bolt]

nop

using commands.command

[slate swan]

great. show the current code

[novel bolt]

ok

[slate swan]

cool

[novel bolt]

    @commands.command('tts')
    async def tts(self,ctx,*,message):      

        is_added= check_guild(ctx)
        
        if not is_added:
            value = {f"{ctx.guild.id}": "en"}
            with open("langs.json", "r+") as file:
                data = json.load(file)
                data.update(value)
                file.seek(0)
                json.dump(data, file)

            myobj = gTTS(text=message, lang=language,tld='com.au', slow=False)
            myobj.save(r"moosik/message.mp3")

            try:
                await ctx.author.voice.channel.connect()
            except:
                pass        

            if ctx.author.voice is None:
                return await ctx.send('Pls join a voice channel')           

            guild = ctx.guild
            voice_client: discord.VoiceClient = discord.utils.get(self.bot.voice_clients, guild=guild)
            audio_source = discord.FFmpegPCMAudio(r'moosik/message.mp3')
            if not voice_client.is_playing():
                voice_client.play(audio_source, after=None)
            else:
                await ctx.reply('Command not done')
                        
        except Exception as e:
            await ctx.send(e) 

!paste

[unkempt canyon]

Pasting large amounts of code

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

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

[novel bolt]

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

[slate swan]

and what error do you want to deal with?

since you already use try/except there

[novel bolt]

i am not trying to deal with error, if i use > hi how r you i want to make the tts command run

i was only ablt to get hi out of it , so

[boreal ravine]

use * before the parameter to pass every argument after that into one parameter

[slate swan]

thats weird since you already have * before message kwarg

[novel bolt]

like this?

[slate swan]

yea

[novel bolt]

but it gave an error b4, lemme try again

[slate swan]

oh i get it, shouldnt you use >tts hi how r you?

if you want it to work as > hi how r you , you'll need to go for on_message listener

[novel bolt]

means?

[novel bolt]

will it work with this?

[novel bolt]

oh tat

i completely forgot abt it

then i will use tat method

[novel bolt]

using * here gives error anyways

[slate swan]

dont do that

remove that *

[novel bolt]

ok

btw thanks , i will do with on_message

[steady ember]

webhook = await ctx.channel.create_webhook(name="ubBot",avatar="https://images.unsplash.com/photo-1494253109108-2e30c049369b?ixlib=rb-1.2.1&ixid=MnwxMjA3fDB8MHxzZWFyY2h8Mnx8cmFuZG9tJTIwZm9vZCUyMHN0b3JlfGVufDB8fDB8fA%3D%3D&w=1000&q=80")```

is it correct way to use?

[cobalt jacinth]

how can i not let the user use the command twice in a row till current is timeout or completed

[mystic carbon]

Can you help?discord.ext.commands.errors.ExtensionNotFound: Extension 'Cogs.Code' could not be loaded.

There is a bot that is salvaged and they shared the code to the public and I want to start it myself and I got the zip file

And it gives this error

[steel kindle]

Hey how can we use slash commands in discord.py

bot

[plush crypt]

discord.py is no longer updated and doesn't support slash commands.

[steel kindle]

ok

does pycord or nextcord work

[cobalt jacinth]

help me pls

[cobalt jacinth]

how to close this when user uses the command again

[slate swan]

why dont you just use a cooldown?

[twilit ocean]

if he used cooldown
the cooldown will be on all the members

not for the command user

[slate swan]

no?

cooldowns provide buckets

[cobalt jacinth]

this worked

[slate swan]

Bad indents though

[split minnow]

async def on_reaction_add(message,user):
  await message.delete()```

Hey, I want that my bot deletes messages when there is a reaction on it. It doesnt work with my code. I know this is very basic but I'm new and i couldn't find a answer on stckoverflow or on reddit. So thank you

[slate swan]

its a reaction_add event, so the parameters are reaction and user

you can do reaction.message.delete()

!d discord.Reaction.message

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Reaction.message

Message this reaction is for.

[split minnow]

if I use reaction and user as parameters, the message. is underlined and i can't run the code either

it works thanks to you both

[exotic patrol]

I believe there are error handlers about it, UserMissingPermissions something...

let me search it on my bot

so wait, you want to check whether the bot has permissions or the user using that commend have permissions?

so it was BotMissingPermissions, but it didn't worked for me when I used it

@cedar smelt
https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/stable/ext/commands/api.html?highlight=botmissingpermission#discord.ext.commands.BotMissingPermissions
this one was I saw last time

[flint steeple]

Which one should I use nextcord or disnake to easily add new features to my bot ?

[outer flint]

import disnake
from disnake.ext import commands
from disnake import Embed
import json


class ASE(commands.Cog):
    """Ages and Splendor Expanded"""
    def __init__(self, bot):
        self.bot = bot

    @commands.group(case_insensitive=True)
    async def ase(self, ctx):
        """Returns the ASE steam page"""
        if ctx.invoked_subcommand is None:
            ase_embed = Embed(title='Ages and Splendor Expanded',
                                url='https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2172666098',

            await ctx.send(embeds=ase_embed)

is there anything wrong here?

[slate swan]

I'll suggest Disnake , it's completely your choice though
Go thru their docs and see whats better for you

[flint steeple]

OK thx

[rancid stump]

Hy guys how i can means my personal account can join a discord server using python??

Where should i look to solve this problem

[slate swan]

!rule 5 , automating user account violates tos

[unkempt canyon]

Rules

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

[red sundial]

it'll get you banned from discord

[rancid stump]

😅

I didn't know that

Means that something is not possible with discord ??? Api??

[fervent shard]

discord.ext.commands.errors.CommandInvokeError: Command raised an exception: AttributeError: type object 'Colour' has no attribute 'pink'```
?????

[final iron]

We've cannot help with this

Leave

[final iron]

Send the code

[rancid stump]

Ok thx for replying

[fervent shard]

@bot.command()
async def cba (ctx):
  embed=discord.Embed(title="2. trolling, baiting & harassment", description="behaviors to intentionally start conflict or elicit negative reactions is considered trolling. \nthis includes but is not limited to sending abusive direct messages (DMs) to other users or players, purposely trying to bait a user into an argument, name calling, and actively trying to upset or cause arguments.", colour= discord.Colour.pink())
  await ctx.send(embed=embed)```

[pastel lake]

lmao cba

[fervent shard]

i did random letters :D

[pastel lake]

oh, you did, cba is cant be arsed, uk slang xD
yk how you come accross some repos and thier commit messages are like "fuck this im done" or "test" or just "asf"

i thought thats what you did xD

[fervent shard]

oh

[pastel lake]

lmao

[final iron]

Fuck

[pastel lake]

L

just google fam

[final iron]

I don't think it has a pink attribute

!d discord.Colour

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Colour

class discord.Colour(value)```
Represents a Discord role colour. This class is similar to a (red, green, blue) [`tuple`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/stdtypes.html#tuple "(in Python v3.9)").

There is an alias for this called Color...

[final iron]

Just enter in the hex

Or

Use another color

[honest vessel]

u can use any hex color

[trim moss]

Is there a new library similar to discord.py?

[honest vessel]

this is how i do

[final iron]

Well there are forks of discord.py now

I would recommend disnake

[honest vessel]

afile.py

colors = {"blurple" : 0x7289DA, "green" : 0x33ff57, "yellow" : 0xFFD300, "red" : 0xB22222}

acog.py

from cogs import afile
...
em = discord.Embed(title="", description="", colour=afile.colors["blurple"])

could prob place em in a better folder

[boreal ravine]

https://github.com/nestcord/nestcord/ what do you guys think

[slim ibex]

interesting

[modern fiber]

It pings role like this... how do I fix it?

await message.channel.send(f"Hey @half iron! Make sure to check this server out!")

Help?

[boreal ravine]

role or member

[modern fiber]

role

[honest vessel]

"The best API wrapper for discord you will ever need." kek right

@modern fiberformat is wrong, <@&id_of_role_here>

@cedar smeltcan u show ur parameters?

try msg = await ctx.response.send_message()

oh wait u using disnake or?

cause that is disnake i gave ^^

[maiden fable]

👀

[honest vessel]

well it dosnt have that attributes

[maiden fable]

Show yr code

Seems like msg.author is None

await ctx.response.send_message wil return None

!d disnake.Interaction.original_message

[unkempt canyon]

disnake.Interaction.original\_message

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

Fetches the original interaction response message associated with the interaction.

Here is a table with response types and their associated original message...

[honest vessel]

https://docs.disnake.dev/en/latest/api.html?highlight=send_message#disnake.Interaction

slashcommands uses interaction not ctx like normal messages

"This function is a coroutine."

[final iron]

When I get home from school I think I'm going to work on creating a welcome card feature

[honest vessel]

@cedar smelthere,

so instead of response.send_message() use the followup.send caue it returns a msg object

[maiden fable]

Sure

[honest vessel]

or that, both will get u a messageobject

that will use a webhook (for ur info)

just fetch it like u had

np

@cedar smeltbut u also have this what i see

https://docs.disnake.dev/en/latest/api.html?highlight=send_message#disnake.MessageInteraction.message

aka ctx.message

ctx.message.id

so seems like no need of fetching orginal message

[slate swan]

what is .flatten() in this line: ** await ctx.channel.history(limit=num).flatten()**

[glacial zealot]

!d discord.AsyncIterator.flatten

[unkempt canyon]

discord.AsyncIterator.flatten

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

Flattens the async iterator into a [`list`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/stdtypes.html#list "(in Python v3.9)") with all the elements.

[glacial zealot]

Basically, it will fetch all of the messages up to that limit and put it in a list

[slate swan]

join my server😜

[tidal hawk]

Can somebody recommend database for storing XP (gaining xp by chatting)
is just using JSON okay?

[honest vessel]

aiosqlite

[daring olive]

!warn 933338635720351814 don't advertise or self-promote on our server as per our #rules

[unkempt canyon]

:incoming_envelope: :ok_hand: applied warning to @slate swan.

[slate swan]

no you should not, it seems like a good idea but json is meant for configuration purpose and not databases
Use some local db like aiosqlite instead

or if you want to keep it like json, use mongodb

!pip motor

[unkempt canyon]

motor v2.5.1

Non-blocking MongoDB driver for Tornado or asyncio

[slate swan]

!pip aiosqlite

[unkempt canyon]

aiosqlite v0.17.0

asyncio bridge to the standard sqlite3 module

[tidal hawk]

Thanks! Just asking, what are the downsides of using JSON as a database?

[slate swan]

1. It's not a database
2. Frequently reading and writing can corrupt it
3. Cant handle large size data

[maiden fable]

4. Used by Hunter

[tidal hawk]

Thanks again

[slate swan]

5. He caches stuff too

[crystal comet]

Nice

[fresh iron]

RuntimeWarning: coroutine 'ClientSession.close' was never awaited

whats this

[final iron]

Code?

[fresh iron]

classified

[maiden fable]

So is the answer (:

[final iron]

We can't help if we don't see the code...

Are you seriously paranoid someone is going to steal it?

Or is it something to breaks tos?

I'm leaning towards the latter

[honest vessel]

that error is self explained

no need for code but intressting he scared of showing it, but answer is ||was never awaited||

[fresh iron]

yh cause its extremely creative

[final iron]

Nobody is going to steal your code

[fresh iron]

i know i already solved it

[honest vessel]

am not sure - but why not use specific errorhandlers for specific commands?

    @commands.command(aliases=["b"])
    @commands.has_permissions(ban_members=True)
    async def ban(self, ctx, user:discord.User):
        ...
        await ctx.guild.ban(user, reason=reason)

    @ban.error
    async def ban_error(self, ctx, error):
        if isinstance(error, commands.MissingPermissions):
            await ctx.send(f"{ctx.author.mention} *You Missing Permissions.*")
        elif isinstance(error, commands.MissingRequiredArgument):
            await ctx.send(f"{ctx.author.mention} *You didnt mention {error.param}*")
``` kinda like this

@cedar smelti just know error.param dont know how to grab what command it was but that is an example of a command specific error

[cold sonnet]

okay the missing permissions one why

[honest vessel]

@cold sonnetjust example

[cold sonnet]

just do it in a global one

can you check for the typehint of a param?

[honest vessel]

ah then u better use global 😄 (thanks for letting us know when u find the answers of ur own questions)

damn 100 slashcommands....

is that max allowed or ?

[pallid mango]

@commands.command('role')

discord.ext.commands.errors.CommandInvokeError: Command raised an exception: TypeError: role_error() takes 2 positional arguments but 3 were given and im getting this error, its in a cog and everything else in the cog works

oops i sent the code wrong

[honest vessel]

u forgot self

@role.error
  async def role_error(ctx, error):
    if isinstance(error, MissingPermissions):
      await ctx.send('**:x: | You do not have permission to use this command!**')```

[pallid mango]

wdym i forgot self, idk what that means

[honest vessel]

if cog == class, u need self

as first parameter

def test(self, "just a string"):

[pallid mango]

where would i put that

[honest vessel]

async def role_error(self, ctx, error):

like that on all ur functions

[oblique adder]

What could be disadvantages of using rasp pi rahter than a vps to host a discord bot (8gb to be exact)

[pallid mango]

oooh

let me try that

[honest vessel]

nothing?

[split minnow]

idk what I should do, my bot isnt working anymore

[oblique adder]

like compare to vps

[oblique adder]

replit ?

[split minnow]

yes

[honest vessel]

uptime or memory, but your with 8GB is fine

[oblique adder]

kill container and restart

[split minnow]

ok thanks

[oblique adder]

type kill 1 in shell

[honest vessel]

i use 512MB ram for my bots

its enough for me

[pallid mango]

the command isnt even working at all

and its not giving an error

[honest vessel]

@pallid mangodid u put self on the command too

[oblique adder]

1 gb is not enough anymore for meso I am planning to either upgrade vps plan or just use rasp pi
but im not sure abou uptime

[pallid mango]

no it works now

thank you

[honest vessel]

😛

[pallid mango]

  @commands.command(pass_context=True, help = 'Delete messages!')

    if isinstance(error, commands.MissingPermissions):
      await ctx.send('**:x: | You do not have permission to use this command!**')

and now im getting the same error

[honest vessel]

self...

[pallid mango]

but do i put self here too

[honest vessel]

i told u to put self on all ur commands if they are in a cog

[pallid mango]

oh, i didnt know because it was a purge command

[honest vessel]

it dosnt matter what function it is

@pallid mangoif u learned how to make a basic class in python you would know this 🙂

[pallid mango]

i just watched randoms on youtube

[honest vessel]

self, is instance of a class so u can reach methods n attributes in a class

[cold sonnet]

this me when youtube

[pallid mango]

i learn best by fixing mistakes and customizing commands

[honest vessel]

well u learn best with knowing basic python 😛

[timid wagon]

Knowing how subclassing works will help you learn better then

[honest vessel]

and then start do little more advanced python

Its not even that much of reading to learn the basics of python

!resources

[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.

[honest vessel]

@pallid mangotake ur time n read throu like those https://python.swaroopch.com/basics.html easy written stuff

[pallid mango]

okay

thank you

[honest vessel]

but if u still like watching youtube, theres plenty of PYTHON learning videos - not just some guy with outdated discord.py showing little codes without explaining much

that will just make u copy pasta n dont know much

[unkempt canyon]

Hey @earnest ingot!

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

[earnest ingot]

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

Who can help me with this code? Somehow it gets error, but everything is fine

[honest vessel]

show error

and also why this imports

[earnest ingot]

Wait

[honest vessel]

import random

from random import choice

use either one of em 😛

[earnest ingot]

Are you sure, that I need to specially extract one choice for that?

[honest vessel]

you can remove import random

and keep the other but then u have to change one part

{random.choice(responses)} to choice(responses)

choice(status)

you using both, probally copy pasta n no clue 🙂

import random
random.choice()

# OR
from random import choice
choice()

i would recommend use last cause that saves u from import unneccesary functions you dont need from random lib

[earnest ingot]

Ok, I'll try

[honest vessel]

@earnest ingotbut wat was yor error?

[earnest ingot]

RuntimeError: Event loop is closed

[earnest ingot]

Didn't help

[earnest ingot]

But it worked before

[slate swan]

what things i should master in discord py to build discord bots

[velvet tinsel]

asyncio, functions, some classes, variables and decorators

[slate swan]

no i mean things to build discord bots

@velvet tinsel

[velvet tinsel]

uhh…

they are?

[earnest ingot]

discord

random

[velvet tinsel]

you need to know some stuff about these to build a discord bot

[velvet tinsel]

LOLLLL

[earnest ingot]

But it's an addon in Python bro

Try "pip install discord"

[slate swan]

what kind of stuff

[velvet tinsel]

Yeah Ik

[velvet tinsel]

…

[velvet tinsel]

I….

Idk actually, maybe the above comment?

[earnest ingot]

Okay, asyncio may be

But because of one error I'm in JavaScript, so that's why I am on this server

[slate swan]

no what discord py library components

[honest vessel]

@earnest ingotwell i tried help u with the most fundamental import of python modules, but that was too hard 🙂

[earnest ingot]

I kno

Maybe try become helper or failed?

[honest vessel]

yeah its my fault, not yours.

[earnest ingot]

?

Why

[honest vessel]

and language barrier 😄

[earnest ingot]

Wdym

[honest vessel]

import random
random.choice()

# OR
from random import choice
choice()

you use both of those instead of 1.

import random
from random import choice
await ctx.send(f'Question: {question}\nAnswer: {random.choice(responses)}')

    await client.change_presence(activity=discord.Game(choice(status)))

[earnest ingot]

Wrong code I sent to you, but now worked

[honest vessel]

well do u understand what i even mean?

[earnest ingot]

Ye, that when I type one addon twice, Python says: "Get the f||or||k out"

[honest vessel]

ok, good luck with your coding 🙂

[rustic onyx]

I wanna code a welcome cog that sends something like this when someone joins the server, any idea on how can I code it? I guess I'll need extra modules/packages and some other stuff

Thanks in advance

[slate swan]

use on_member_join events and use pillow to make those images

!pip pillow

[unkempt canyon]

Pillow v9.0.0

Python Imaging Library (Fork)

[rustic onyx]

does await disnake.VoiceClient.play(source) use await asyncio.sleep()? and if not how do i check when the bot is done playing the source?

[maiden fable]

!d discord.VoiceClient.is_playing

[unkempt canyon]

discord.VoiceClient.is\_playing

is_playing()```
Indicates if we’re currently playing audio.

[tidal hawk]

Anyone know what's rate limiter for changing Voice channel name?

1 after every 15 minutes?

[maiden fable]

it is dynamic

[tidal hawk]

So it means, changing the name in 5 minute intervals is okay?

[maiden fable]

Sure

[tidal hawk]

Why does guild.approximate_presence_count return None?

[maiden fable]

U got presence intent?

Ah u mean Invite.approx presence count?

!d discord.Invite.approximate_presence_count

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Invite.approximate\_presence\_count

The approximate number of members currently active in the guild. This includes idle, dnd, online, and invisible members. Offline members are excluded.

[final iron]

What

[slate swan]

!d disnake.Guild.approximate_member_count

[unkempt canyon]

disnake.Guild.approximate\_member\_count

The approximate number of members in the guild. Only available for manually fetched guilds.

New in version 2.3.

[quaint epoch]

!d tracemalloc

[unkempt canyon]

tracemalloc

New in version 3.4.

Source code: Lib/tracemalloc.py

The tracemalloc module is a debug tool to trace memory blocks allocated by Python. It provides the following information...

[quaint epoch]

does anyone else have to do py import tracemalloc tramalloc.start() at the beginning of their code?

[slate swan]

what for

it just checks if something is blocking

[quaint epoch]

idk, without it my program just gives me some error that tells me to enable traceback in tracemalloc

[final iron]

To see the full traceback

[slate swan]

you arent awaiting coros

[quaint epoch]

oh alr

[final iron]

Happens when something isnt awaited

[quaint epoch]

i am

[final iron]

You're not

[quaint epoch]

i await everything

[slate swan]

your missing something then

show tb

[final iron]

That error happens all the time. You're forgetting to await something

[slate swan]

^

[quaint epoch]

no i missed to await smth before, fixed it tho

when you make an API call, you have to await the line right?

[slate swan]

depends

what are you using?

[quaint epoch]

like, fork?

[slate swan]

no to make request

[quaint epoch]

disnake, usually fetching members and stuff

[slate swan]

oh yes fetch is a coro

get isnt

[quaint epoch]

i know that

but it gives me errors like that anyway sometimes

[slate swan]

show tb

[quaint epoch]

no errors now, working smoothly

thanks stackoverflow

[slate swan]

thar error is raised whenever you don't await a coroutine

[quaint epoch]

alr

[slate swan]

Hello I’m making discord bot that scrapes tiktok api for follows on the account I am not sure the best way to scrape tiktok anyone know how

By doing the tracemalloc.start() you ain't fixing the issue but just suppressing the error.

[quaint epoch]

oh

well that ain't good

[slate swan]

!e

import asyncio
async def coro():
    print("lol")

async def function():
    coro()

asyncio.run(function())

[final iron]

Does tiktok allow it?

[unkempt canyon]

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

001 | <string>:6: RuntimeWarning: coroutine 'coro' was never awaited
002 | RuntimeWarning: Enable tracemalloc to get the object allocation traceback

[slate swan]

lol

[slate swan]

Tiktok allows scrapping as long as it’s not malicious

[quaint epoch]

is it malicious?

[final iron]

You don't need to scrape it. It has an open api

[slate swan]

No it’s just scrapping follows that the account has

[quaint epoch]

which account?

[slate swan]

most social medias have rest apis

[slate swan]

Can you give link

[quaint epoch]

do they know abt it?

did you try googling tiktok api

[final iron]

Google it

[slate swan]

A command that does !follows @user

[quaint epoch]

hmmm

alr kinda sussy baka but i'll allow it

[slate swan]

Yes but I’m gonna use web api as I heard it’s better

Well tiktok's banned in my country so I have no idea about its API

[quaint epoch]

should be everywhere

[slate swan]

It’s not sus it’s just a fun command to check follows an account has

[quaint epoch]

alr

idk the tiktok api, don't use tiktok but stack should help

anyway gtg cya

[slate swan]

Kk thx

[slate swan]

https://developers.tiktok.com/

the tiktok api lol

[slate swan]

Ty

yw

@slate swan I think unofficial tiktok package will work better tbh

[slate swan]

why so?

[slate swan]

They made package for things I want to do so it will work better

I was gonna use selium but I don’t think it would work well

just make a wrapper for the api

like me with the twitter api👀

O

I’m not good with wrappers

So I’ll just use ones available to me

lol

Actually I got better idea

I’ll use this websites api: https://tokcount.com/?user=gtm

@slate swan low-key smart bc less work

Bc website scrapes data for me

ig so

[blazing beacon]

how do i get the last 10 members who sent a message in a channel( also i havent used discord.py in a while so be kind ;-;)

[tidal hawk]

Iterate through channel* history and append 10 members into a list

[blazing beacon]

using get channel history?

[manic wing]

Good question, and theres not an easy method to do it as far as I am aware. This method may take a while;

How to:
You will need an instance of discord.TextChannel - I will call it channel here

-> You’re going to want to iterate through channel.history (or use the .flatten() method which I will demonstrate here.
-> You will need to iterate through a large amount of messages in case a couple people have been texting for a while - ill use 1000 messages; bearing in mind it will only take as long as it takes to find the 10 members, and if there are only 3 members who have sent messages it will take a long time and then return nothing

messages = await channel.history(limit=1000).flatten() # this holds a list of the last 1000 messages
members = []
for msg in messages:
     if msg.author not in members:
         members.append(msg.author)
        if len(members) == 10: return
``` once it has finished iterating, `members` will contain the members (instance of `discord.Member`)

[blazing beacon]

OH WHAT

[slate swan]

caeden with the help tho

[tidal hawk]

Sweaty answer

[blazing beacon]

omg tysm like damn 💀

[slate swan]

nah professional

[blazing beacon]

ong

[tidal hawk]

& sweaty

[slate swan]

love caeden hes the goat

[blazing beacon]

im gonna modify some of the code but thanks so much @manic wing

[stone moon]

how can i assign the display roles above everyone permission to a role

how do i fetch the message link of a message

[manic wing]

np

ask all your questions now, ill be banned soon probably

[blazing beacon]

why though

[slate swan]

👀

[manic wing]

1) wdym?
2) message.jump_url where message is an instance of discord.Message

[stone moon]

bro.

[blazing beacon]

this only returns 1 when there are 5 people

[stone moon]

roles can be displayed above everyone like how Owners in this discord is above Admins and everyting below

if u go to roles settings in display

how do i assign it to arole

[manic wing]

hm, odd

[blazing beacon]

that 1 is me

because in your code it says is message.author not in members append it

[manic wing]

did it stop early?

[tidal hawk]

Did you use it on correct channel?

[manic wing]

?

[blazing beacon]

yep

[blazing beacon]

i dont think it did

[manic wing]

ill try

[blazing beacon]

although i did reduce the message get size to 100

but that still shouldnt have affected anything

wait do i need some o auth scope?

[manic wing]

nope, just message intents

[wild comet]

how would i go about turning 120000 seconds into like days, hours, minutes, seconds

[blazing beacon]

that explains it

[manic wing]

timedelta

[wild comet]

aight

lemme see

[blazing beacon]

it still doesnt work ( as in it still brings up 1 when there are multiple people in the chat )

[manic wing]

try printing msg

print is a useful debugger

you can figure out where shit goes wrong

[blazing beacon]

doing it

[wild comet]

ok i can not figure that outw

what in the world

[manic wing]

dude took it seriously 😢

[blazing beacon]

odd

it works?

[manic wing]

not timedelta lol, you just /60, /60, /24

[manic wing]

[blazing beacon]

hmmm

[wild comet]

what

i know that but then i just couldnt figure out how to do it to the rest

[manic wing]

#python-discussion

[tidal hawk]

messages = await ctx.channel.history(limit=100).flatten()
message_authors = list(dict.fromkeys([message.author.name for message in messages]))

[arctic wraith]

man's trying to fit a novel on one line

[cold sonnet]

then he should put await ctx.message.channel.history

[slate swan]

guys what is that?

[tidal hawk]

Gateaway connection error ig

[slate swan]

what can i do about it?

[tidal hawk]

It happens every time you run it?

[slate swan]

only when the loop calls this line

[flat solstice]

So I'm getting this errorpy Ignoring exception in on_message Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/local/lib/python3.8/dist-packages/discord/client.py", line 343, in _run_event await coro(*args, **kwargs) File "/home/modmail/cogs/events.py", line 487, in on_message if message.author.has_any_role(data[3]) or message.author.has_guild_permissions(self.bot.config.moderator_permissions): AttributeError: 'Member' object has no attribute 'has_any_role'and I'm not too sure why, ik has_any_role exists bc I found it in the docs so maybe it's something wrong with what I'm providing it? I'm giving data[3]an array of roles from my db

[tidal hawk]

Member object doesn't have has_any_role

Are you trying to check, if a user has a certain role?

[cold sonnet]

obviously

[tidal hawk]

He could try if role in member.roles

[cold sonnet]

or decorators

commands.has_any_role

commands.has_guild_permissions

[flat solstice]

yeah, checking if a user/member has a role from my array of roles, I can't do command.has_any_role or command.has_guild_permissions bc this isn't a command, it's a on_message event which also handles other messages

[cold sonnet]

[slate swan]

what is that indentation

[cold sonnet]

what

it's perfect

[slate swan]

yeah its discord

[tidal hawk]

All my bots look like it

[slate swan]

say what now

[cold sonnet]

yeah it's discord

[slate swan]

lol

[tidal hawk]

Does your array of roles, consist of role names or ids

[flat solstice]

ID's

[tidal hawk]

hold up'

Try this ```py
if len(set(roles) & set([role.id for role in member.roles])) > 0: print('Your role is in list')

[flat solstice]

tweaked it slightly to work with my code and it printed Your role is in list py if len(set(data[3]) & set([role.id for role in message.author.roles])) > 0: print('Your role is in list')

[tidal hawk]

sheesh

[flat solstice]

so should I use this py if len(set(data[3]) & set([role.id for role in message.author.roles])) > 0: print('Your role is in list') instead of thispy if message.author.has_any_role(data[3]) or message.author.has_guild_permissions(self.bot.config.moderator_permissions):also sorry about the pings, I keep forgetting to turn them off

[tidal hawk]

Does it work?

If it does, then you should use it, because the other method didn't

[full lily]

don't use &, use and

[tidal hawk]

why not

oh

[full lily]

it's bad practice

[tidal hawk]

But it doesn't work that way

[full lily]

look here

#set([role.id for role in message.author.roles]))
set(role.id for role in message.author.roles)

You should be able to throw all of that into a set without the list

little things

[tidal hawk]

We are trying to compare two list.. right?

and print out the same occuring elems

[full lily]

oh im not sure I didn't read up

[quiet coral]

I was reading this piece of code :

import discord
from discord.ext import commands
bot = commands.Bot(command_prefix="uwu ")

class MyHelp(commands.HelpCommand):
    async def send_bot_help(self, mapping):
        embed = discord.Embed(title="Help")
        for cog, commands in mapping.items():
           command_signatures = [self.get_command_signature(c) for c in commands]
           if command_signatures:
                cog_name = getattr(cog, "qualified_name", "No Category")
                embed.add_field(name=cog_name, value="\n".join(command_signatures), inline=False)

        channel = self.get_destination()
        await channel.send(embed=embed)

bot.help_command = MyHelp()

I don't understand what a command signature is can someone help?
I looked it up in the discord.py documentation it says:
Returns a POSIX-like signature useful for help command output.
what the hell is this??

[slate swan]

How do i make a mute command

[slate swan]

idk

hi

[tidal hawk]

Create role which can't type/speak and then create function which adds the role to a person

[slate swan]

i tried running my python project

and it just plain black

then it closes

help

Do you have VScode?

ye

Ok

Open the project in VScode

i did

and when it is go to your main python file and hit f5

it aint running

[slate swan]

This is not the appropriate channel to ask such questions, thanks

i think there is something wrong with my pc or some

DM me

[slate swan]

?

Oh ok

[slate swan]

Which api wrapper you're using?

[slate swan]

You can ask in #python-discussion or claim a help channel #❓｜how-to-get-help

[flat solstice]

yeah it seems to be working, the bots responding to me again at least which it wasn't doing before when it was erroring, if I tweaked it to bepy if [len(set(data[3]) & set([role.id for role in message.author.roles])) > 0] or message.author.has_guild_permissions(self.bot.config.moderator_permissions):do you think it would still work? i'm not quite sure how to combine these two if statements correctly

[arctic wraith]

I'd change that first part to

if set(data[3]).intersection(role.id for role in message.author.roles)

just a bit more legible imo, other way around works too

[slate swan]

Is making a token logger aloud here? like where you have it made and it works and you come here saying its not working and wait for someone to respond?

[slate swan]

token logger by?

login a discord bots token?

No

then what?

Like a token stealer

nope

if not then i got to report someone

against tos to steal tokens

^^

Welp now where do i report someone in this discord

Visit their website

Also, this isnt the right channel to discuss about it

[tidal hawk]

Yeah it should

[arctic wraith]

will it though?
[len(set(data[3]) & set([role.id for role in message.author.roles])) > 0]
will be either [True] or [False] because they wrapped it in a list

both of which equate to True when cast to bool, as the list isn't empty

[tidal hawk]

Bro modified my original code, now it doesn\t work

mine was this```py
if len(set(roles) & set([role.id for role in member.roles])) > 0: print('Your role is in list')

not sure why he put brackets there

[slate swan]

from bs4 import BeautifulSoup

url = "https://www.tiktok.com/@gtm"
response = requests.get(url)
soup =  BeautifulSoup(response.text, "html.parser")


follow_wrapper = soup.find(id="app")
follows = follow_wrapper.find(class_ ="tiktok-xeexlu-DivNumber e1awr0pt1")
title = follows.find(class_="followers-count")
``` idk what channel to post this so lol

itsa sayin 0

[tidal hawk]

Mmm bs4

my favorite

[slate swan]

lol

[flat solstice]

oh yeah i'm using that rn, the reason i added the [ ] in was so that I could add in a the or message.author.has_guild_permissions(self.bot.config.moderator_permissions bit (which didn't work so i reverted that)

[tidal hawk]

if (len(set(roles) & set([role.id for role in member.roles])) > 0) or (message.author.has_guild_permissions(self.bot.config.moderator_permissions)

Should work

unless the right side is broken

[flat solstice]

oh okay, i had the weird idea that bc it was thing1 & thing2 I couldn't then make it thing1 & thing2 or thing3 without wrapping the first bit in [ ]

[tidal hawk]

xd

& just found the same elements from two sets

[vocal snow]

Could also use set comprehension directly: {role.id for role in member.roles}

[tidal hawk]

jep

[flat solstice]

did you mean for the ( to be in front of message.author.has_guild_perms()? bc there's not a closing one on the end to match it

[tidal hawk]

oh

add ) to the end of the line

[flat solstice]

👍

okay so next question, can someone remind how to strip list things from around my final result? (ik that probs makes no sense). My code is py await message.author.send(f'Your message had `{bad}` in it, This word is considered a "bad" word on this server so your message was removed.') but the bots sending me @SparseSpace ['b2b'] is considered a "bad" word on this server. and i can't rember how to remove the [' '] from the word, i think i need to format it or strip it right?

[tidal hawk]

can there be multiple bad words in the list? if so: ' '.join(list)

If there's only one for sure, then: list[0]

[flat solstice]

theoretically there could be multiple but chances are there will only be one, i'll migrate any future errors by using the first one

[desert ice]

any1 knows why this doesn't work

client.say is from a very old version of discord.py

[final iron]

Define ctx in the functions arguments and use ctx.send() instead of client.say

[tidal hawk]

Where do people with these ancient syntexs

[final iron]

Because they copy code from old tutorials

so something like this?py await message.author.send(f'Your message had `{bad}` in it, This word is conssidered a "bad" word on this server so your message was removed.'.join(bad))I've never been great at formatting strings

[kindred epoch]

how do i set an option in a slash command as Greedy?

[robust rain]

HI

HRU

[kindred epoch]

[slate swan]

Is it possible to do when a person leaves the server, it was written how long he was there?

[tidal hawk]

Replace {bad} with {" ".join(bad)}

@flat solstice

[tidal hawk]

@slate swan Yeah, you can calculate time between Member.joined_at() and leaving time

[kindred epoch]

!d disnake.Member.joined_at

[unkempt canyon]

disnake.Member.joined\_at

An aware datetime object that specifies the date and time in UTC that the member joined the guild. If the member left and rejoined the guild, this will be the latest date. In certain cases, this can be None.

[kindred epoch]

@slate swan

[tidal hawk]

@kindred epoch I believe it's here: https://docs.disnake.dev/en/latest/ext/commands/slash_commands.html#autocompleters

[flat solstice]

so more like this?py await message.author.send(f'Your message had `{"".join(bad)}` in it, This word is conssidered a "bad" word on this server so your message was removed.'). also I'm now getting this error py Ignoring exception in on_message Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/local/lib/python3.8/dist-packages/discord/client.py", line 343, in _run_event await coro(*args, **kwargs) File "/home/modmail/cogs/events.py", line 494, in on_message if (len(set(data[3]) & set([role.id for role in message.author.roles])) > 0) or (message.author.has_guild_permissions(self.bot.config.moderator_permissions)): AttributeError: 'Member' object has no attribute 'has_guild_permissions' so obviously something's not right with my if statement logic, one of the reasons I thought i might need to warp the thing1 & thing2 bit in [ ]

[slate swan]

Okay

[tidal hawk]

Uh it's because Discordpy-s Member object, doesn't have 'has_guild_permissions'

[flat solstice]

oh right, that's a attribute of commands , is there a member equivalent

[tidal hawk]

Not sure bud

It's actually a decorator lol

[flat solstice]

okay thanks the help, guess i've gotta wade into the docs again

[tidal hawk]

Dude you can make your code 10x easier lmao

You could use commands.has_any_role(role.ids)

So it will check automatically, if the author has one of those roles

And then you could also add commands.bot_has_guild_permissions(**perms)

  embed.add_field(name='Field Name', value='Field Value', inline=True)

  await ctx.send(embed=embed)

try it

[tidal hawk]

What's the error

[upbeat flower]

his not written ctx

[flat solstice]

i could do, if I was using a command. i'm using a on_message event since this is a auto mod thing and the event is also handling some other on message things so even if events can take decorators (i have no idea if they can or not) I couldn't use the decorators anyway without making a whole new on message event for this auto mod

[tidal hawk]

Ah yeah

Then it's a bit difficult to find solution to that

[tidal hawk]

what

[flat solstice]

so other than me not being able to use the has_guild_permissions like i wanted to, is this the correct way to be using .join() ```py
await message.author.send(f'Your message had {"".join(bad)} in it, This word is conssidered a "bad" word on this server so your message was removed.')

[tidal hawk]

put space between " "

[upbeat flower]

Are you about blank pictures?

[tidal hawk]

There's no url in pictures

[zinc reef]

If I have a subcommand setup like this, will the check from the parent command (fct) apply to the subcommand (foo)?

@commands.group(invoke_without_command=True)

    ...

@fct.command()
async def foo(self, ctx):
    ...

[tidal hawk]

not sure, try it

[cloud dawn]

Most likely not since you don't invoke the base as well. Best is to test indeed.

[zinc reef]

alright, I'll setup a custom check with some prints, since being owner of the test server I have all permissions 😬

[cloud dawn]

Just remove your ID from the owner list or string

is_owner() checks for the bot owner not the server owner.

[zinc reef]

yeah I know about is_owner, wasn't sure if I could remove my ID at all

[cloud dawn]

Yeah just remove it and restart the bot. Not too much trouble.

Haha, that is nice :3
But only the staff can nominate users.

Did you name a function random?

[karmic totem]

make sure random is not defined anywhere else?

[tacit token]

no im not

[cloud dawn]

Could you show how you defined random?

[tacit token]

im not, jst import random and yeah. this code

so far it has worked, for some reason the commands have not worked for 2 days

[karmic totem]

Can you show us your whole 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.

[karmic totem]

damn I was just about to

[tacit token]

this code is about 3000 lines

Doesn't matter we got ctrl+f

[karmic totem]

and I am stalling from doing hw so take as much time as you want

        await ctx.send(f"**{ctx.author.name}** has paid their respect {reason}{random.choice(hearts)}")

That's the top of the code.
It was not defined anywhere.

[karmic totem]

ahh

just import random

[cloud dawn]

Well then it's just choice

{choice(hearts)}

[karmic totem]

oh

[cloud dawn]

You import everything

!e ```py
from random import *

print(choice(range(10)))

[unkempt canyon]

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

[karmic totem]

but if you change it to import random

[tacit token]

omg ty

[cloud dawn]

With 3k lines changing an import could break a lot

[karmic totem]

ye ig

[cloud dawn]

Best is to indeed avoid using the *

But for standard libs or if you are really familiar with it it's fine.

[karmic totem]

!e py import random print(random.choice(1,2,3)) print("vs") from random import * print(choice(1,2,3))

ahah

forgot the []

[cloud dawn]

from random import (

If you really want it shorter but do keep it clear what you are doing.

how do i make a guild

[boreal ravine]

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ext.commands.Bot.create\_guild

await create_guild(*, name, region=<VoiceRegion.us_west: 'us-west'>, icon=..., code=...)```
This function is a [*coroutine*](https://docs.python.org/3/library/asyncio-task.html#coroutine).

[slate swan]

discord.ext I think

[flat solstice]

i don't know what I'm doing wrong but this command just doesn't seem to be working and I don't seem to be getting any errorspy @commands.has_permissions(administrator = True) @commands.guild_only() @commands.command(description = "Sets the bad words that aren't allowed to said on the server..") async def badwords(self, ctx, *, words: str): data = await self.bot.get_data(ctx.guild.id) print(f"Input: {words}") bad_words = [] bad_words.append(data[28]) for word in words: bad_words.append(word) print(f"Bad Words: {bad_words}") async with self.bot.pool.acquire() as conn: await conn.execute("UPDATE data SET badwords=$1 WHERE guild=$2", [word for word in bad_words], ctx.guild.id,) await ctx.send(embed = discord.Embed(description = f"The bad words list has been update to be `{', '.join(data[28])}`.", colour = self.bot.primary_colour))

[slate swan]

When you type the command what does it say?

[flat solstice]

nothing, it just doesn't respond and it also isn't printing me any error's

but it's responding to other commands

[slate swan]

When you type it does something pop up on the console from where ur hosting ur bot

[flat solstice]

nope

[paper snow]

Does hikari have a method to see if a user is pinging themselves in a message? Like when I ping @paper snow (me). I tried comparing the event.author.mention to the mention string in the message, but '@paper snow' and '@paper snow' are not the same.

[flat solstice]

and the command i'm using is ,badwords act2 b2b "act 2" "act 2 b2b" glitch

[full lily]

are your prints printing?

[flat solstice]

nope 😭 I'm thinking it could be related to this error with one of my on_message events but I'm not sure why it would be, only reason I think it might be related is whenver I've had issues with on_message events in the past it's always locked up my bot but it's not locking up the bot this time, only this one command. the error on the on_message ispy Ignoring exception in on_message Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/local/lib/python3.8/dist-packages/discord/client.py", line 343, in _run_event await coro(*args, **kwargs) File "/home/modmail/cogs/events.py", line 485, in on_message data = await self.bot.get_data(message.guild.id) AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'id'

[magic ore]

message.guild is None if the message was sent in direct messages

you want to check for that before accessing its id attribute

[flat solstice]

would this work or do I have to do isinstance(DMChannel) py if message.channel != DMChannel: data = await self.bot.get_data(message.guild.id)

[final iron]

!d discord.Message.channel

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Message.channel

The TextChannel or Thread that the message was sent from. Could be a DMChannel or GroupChannel if it’s a private message.

[magic ore]

better to just check if message.guild is None

and no that wouldn't work how you're doing it

[flat solstice]

okay well that fixes my on_message errors but I'm still not getting a response from this commandpy @commands.has_permissions(administrator = True) @commands.guild_only() @commands.command(description = "Sets the bad words that aren't allowed to be said on the server.") async def badwords(self, ctx, *, words: str): data = await self.bot.get_data(ctx.guild.id) print(f"Input: {words}") bad_words = [] bad_words.append(data[28]) for word in words: bad_words.append(word) print(f"Bad Words: {bad_words}") async with self.bot.pool.acquire() as conn: await conn.execute("UPDATE data SET badwords=$1 WHERE guild=$2", [word for word in bad_words], ctx.guild.id,) await ctx.send(embed = discord.Embed(description = f"The bad words list has been update to be `{', '.join(data[28])}`.", colour = self.bot.primary_colour))which as far as I can tell should be working with this command ,badwords act2 b2b "act 2" "act 2 b2b" glitch

[final iron]

Enable member intents

Also check out pep8

Variables should be named in snake_case

[spark wigeon]

too bad

[final iron]

Why are people so opposed to making semi readable code

[spark wigeon]

fine

[slate swan]

probably since its new and their lazy

[final iron]

their

[slate swan]

?

[final iron]

Nice edit

Hows the api wrapper going

[slate swan]

pretty good

cache is good ratelimit is good need to add more endpoints

[final iron]

Oh the github is empty

[slate swan]

yes😳

ill add it when it has more endpoints or not

[slate swan]

if i do an on_message(message): and take that message variable and send the whole thing through a webhook? how can i do that if i even can?

[left crater]

how do i make my mute command ignore the bot

can i do something like this if member ==bot.get_user(bot_id): await ctx.send('cannot mute the bot')

[bold surge]

well the pep8 in that code is terrible but yea

just make sure to return the message so the command stops at that

[cloud dawn]

Better to compare id's

if member.id == bot.user.id:
    return await ctx.send('Cannot mute the bot')

[left crater]

ok thanks

[spark wigeon]

if someone sends a link in a channel, anyway to extract the link from the message into a string?

[slate swan]

yes

just split the string on the start of the url lol

[spark wigeon]

and end

but that sounds hard, may i have an example

[left crater]

just use message.content

[cloud dawn]

Best is to use regex for this

[slate swan]

s = message.content
for y in s.split(‘ ‘):
    if y.startswith(“http”):
       print(y)

that should get the job done

[spark wigeon]

thank u

[cloud dawn]

!e ```py
import re

url_regex = re.compile("http[s]?://(?:[a-zA-Z]|[0-9]|[$-_@.&+]|[!*(),]|(?:%[0-9a-fA-F][0-9a-fA-F]))+")
sample_text = "haha check this out https://google.com lol"

if res := re.search(url_regex, sample_text):
print(res.group(0))

[unkempt canyon]

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

https://google.com

[slate swan]

that works better ^

[cloud dawn]

This is really limited also would break very easily.

[left crater]

thanks it works

[slate swan]

@cloud dawn your right, it was just a way to get it done

[slate swan]

have any solution to this @cloud dawn

[cloud dawn]

Don't think webhooks can send objects.

They send json like data iirc

[slate swan]

i should learn re

😦 off to filtering and extracting data i go

[cloud dawn]

That's my regex for url's :3

[slate swan]

lol

[slate swan]

mine looks esoteric

!e

print("stringhttps://www.youtube.com/".split('https', 1)[1].split('.com/', 1))

[unkempt canyon]

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

['://www.youtube', '']

[slate swan]

[spark wigeon]

thank u dude it works

[slate swan]

panda is probably the god of regex

[cloud dawn]

Where did the https go

[slate swan]

no need for the protocol🏃

[cloud dawn]

idk if all urls work since discord has some weird ones but this should get a lot.

[spark wigeon]

it works

[cloud dawn]

I almost found the best regex ever

[slate swan]

where

[cloud dawn]

_^(?:(?:https?|ftp)://)(?:\S+(?::\S*)?@)?(?:(?!10(?:\.\d{1,3}){3})(?!127(?:\.\d{1,3}){3})(?!169\.254(?:\.\d{1,3}){2})(?!192\.168(?:\.\d{1,3}){2})(?!172\.(?:1[6-9]|2\d|3[0-1])(?:\.\d{1,3}){2})(?:[1-9]\d?|1\d\d|2[01]\d|22[0-3])(?:\.(?:1?\d{1,2}|2[0-4]\d|25[0-5])){2}(?:\.(?:[1-9]\d?|1\d\d|2[0-4]\d|25[0-4]))|(?:(?:[a-z\x{00a1}-\x{ffff}0-9]+-?)*[a-z\x{00a1}-\x{ffff}0-9]+)(?:\.(?:[a-z\x{00a1}-\x{ffff}0-9]+-?)*[a-z\x{00a1}-\x{ffff}0-9]+)*(?:\.(?:[a-z\x{00a1}-\x{ffff}]{2,})))(?::\d{2,5})?(?:/[^\s]*)?$_iuS

[slate swan]

that looks so esoteric

#esoteric-python

[slim ibex]

holy fucking shit

[cloud dawn]

Mine is shit compared to this lol

[slate swan]

lmaoo

[cloud dawn]

https://mathiasbynens.be/demo/url-regex

pretty interesting website

This regex beats most build-in url checks lmfao

@(https?|ftp)://(-\.)?([^\s/?\.#-]+\.?)+(/[^\s]*)?$@iS
``` this one is pretty clean.

[quaint forum]

import discord
@discord.Client().event

Does this just detect when the bot is actually logged in to itself, if you know what I mean?

[bold surge]

?

just use on_ready function

[fervent shoal]

so i recently added the snipe command, and now no other command is working

the snipe command works fine, but the others dont, and no error message either

[slate swan]

make it a listener

[fervent shoal]

pardon?

[slate swan]

from

@client.event

turn it to

@client.listen()

[flat solstice]

Can anyone find any error's in this code? I'm not seeing anything wrong here but my bot's not responding to the command and I'm not getting any error's or print outs and it's really confusing mepy @commands.has_permissions(administrator = True) #@commands.guild_only() @commands.command(description = "Sets the bad words that aren't allowed to be said on the server.") async def badwords(self, ctx, *, words: str): data = await self.bot.get_data(ctx.guild.id) print(f"Input: {words}") bad_words = [] bad_words.append(data[28]) for word in words: bad_words.append(word) print(f"Bad Words: {bad_words}") async with self.bot.pool.acquire() as conn: await conn.execute("UPDATE data SET badwords=$1 WHERE guild=$2", [word for word in bad_words], ctx.guild.id,) await ctx.send(embed = discord.Embed(description = f"The bad words list has been update to be `{', '.join(data[28])}`.", colour = self.bot.primary_colour))but the bot is responding fine to other commands

[fervent shoal]

thank you so much, will try to see if it works now

[slate swan]

yw

[fervent shoal]

uh oh

[glacial zealot]

It’s a Bot only method

[fervent shoal]

?

[slate swan]

hes using commands tho?

[glacial zealot]

You probably meant to do @bot.listen(). Don’t use client and bot in the same file

[fervent shoal]

thanks

[slate swan]

no need for client when Bot is a subclass of the client class

!d discord.ext.commands.Bot

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ext.commands.Bot

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

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

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

[slate swan]

This class is a subclass of discord.Client and as a result anything that you can do with a discord.Client you can do with this bot.

[onyx viper]

the commands extension is there for a reason, use it
if you really don't want to, you need to bot.process_commands(message)

[slate swan]

no

[onyx viper]

!d discord.ext.commands.Bot.process_commands

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ext.commands.Bot.process\_commands

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

This function processes the commands that have been registered to the bot and other groups. Without this coroutine, none of the commands will be triggered.

By default, this coroutine is called inside the [`on_message()`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/api.html#discord.on_message "discord.on_message") event. If you choose to override the [`on_message()`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/api.html#discord.on_message "discord.on_message") event, then you should invoke this coroutine as well.

This is built using other low level tools, and is equivalent to a call to [`get_context()`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.Bot.get_context "discord.ext.commands.Bot.get_context") followed by a call to [`invoke()`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.Bot.invoke "discord.ext.commands.Bot.invoke").

This also checks if the message’s author is a bot and doesn’t call [`get_context()`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.Bot.get_context "discord.ext.commands.Bot.get_context") or [`invoke()`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.Bot.invoke "discord.ext.commands.Bot.invoke") if so.

[slate swan]

a listener is better

so you wont need to process it

[onyx viper]

actually, the commands extension is better

[fervent shoal]

anything to change here or no

[onyx viper]

no

[fervent shoal]

cuz its still not working

[slate swan]

show all your code

!paste

[unkempt canyon]

Pasting large amounts of code

If your code is too long to fit in a codeblock in discord, you can paste your code here:

[fervent shoal]

ive pasted

it

[slate swan]

send the url

[fervent shoal]

do i put the link her

[slate swan]

yes

[fervent shoal]

https://paste.pythondiscord.com/

uh

[slate swan]

no your link

[fervent shoal]

that is my link

[slate swan]

its not

[fervent shoal]

nothing else ther

[slate swan]

you have to add the code and press the save button

[onyx viper]

there should be a id at the end of the link

[fervent shoal]

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

[slate swan]

yes

remove your client

only use the Bot class

[onyx viper]

you haven't changed this?

[fervent shoal]

the snipe command works

[slate swan]

remove client

and use the class

[fervent shoal]

huh

[onyx viper]

why are you instantiating two different bots

[slate swan]

remove client

[fervent shoal]

change client to bot

[slate swan]

no remove the whole client var

[onyx viper]

and replace all instances of client with bot

[fervent shoal]

which line is it

[onyx viper]

17

[slate swan]

on top?

[fervent shoal]

you mean 18? or am i looking atthe wrong place

[onyx viper]

yeah 18

[slate swan]

yes 18

[onyx viper]

it's 17 on the haste 😕

[fervent shoal]

remove it?

[slate swan]

yes

[fervent shoal]

done

anything else?

[slate swan]

and make all the instances to bot

[fervent shoal]

also done

[onyx viper]

and change line 81 to @bot.listen()

[fervent shoal]

this to bot as well?

[slate swan]

yes

only have your bot constructor

and make all events to listeners

[fervent shoal]

remove it or delete

[slate swan]

its the same thing?

[fervent shoal]

so i remove it

[onyx viper]

and i'd highly recommend using the commands extension because you're already using commands.Bot
don't go through the pain of using on_message commands

[fervent shoal]

so that would be?

[slate swan]

!traceback

[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.

provide something to argv

!d sys.argv

[unkempt canyon]

sys.argv

sys.argv```
The list of command line arguments passed to a Python script. `argv[0]` is the script name (it is operating system dependent whether this is a full pathname or not). If the command was executed using the [`-c`](https://docs.python.org/3/using/cmdline.html#cmdoption-c) command line option to the interpreter, `argv[0]` is set to the string `'-c'`. If no script name was passed to the Python interpreter, `argv[0]` is the empty string.

To loop over the standard input, or the list of files given on the command line, see the [`fileinput`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/fileinput.html#module-fileinput "fileinput: Loop over standard input or a list of files.") module.

See also [`sys.orig_argv`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/sys.html#sys.orig_argv "sys.orig_argv").

Note

On Unix, command line arguments are passed by bytes from OS. Python decodes them with filesystem encoding and “surrogateescape” error handler. When you need original bytes, you can get it by `[os.fsencode(arg) for arg in sys.argv]`.

remember that python counts from 0

[fervent shoal]

uhuh

[onyx viper]

how did you run your script

you're probably missing command line arguments

[slate swan]

!e

example_list = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5]
print(example_list[0])

[fervent shoal]

run without debug

is that what u mean

[unkempt canyon]

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

[onyx viper]

i mean what command did you type into terminal

[fervent shoal]

i didnt type it out into termial

typed it out in discord

cuz this a discord bot

[onyx viper]

you need to somehow run the bot

either through your IDE or through terminal

[fervent shoal]

it detects the messages

[onyx viper]

what command did you use (e.g. python3 main.py) to start the script?

[slate swan]

not only that

[fervent shoal]

shows up in terminal

[slate swan]

why even use sys?

i see no command that needs it

[onyx viper]

to retrieve command line arguments

[fervent shoal]

how would i make this better then

[slate swan]

just why

if you want to get args of a command just print them?

im not sure what you want

[fervent shoal]

the bot to respond to the command

which it did earlier, jus not sure why not now

[slate swan]

then why have it?

[onyx viper]

sys.argv retrieves arguments when you run it through terminal, for example python3 main.py 1 2 3 would make sys.argv ["1", "2", "3"]

you can't get the user's timezone

yes

[slate swan]

an argument?

just make a converter

[fervent shoal]

wdym

[onyx viper]

you need to pass arguments while running your script to populate sys.argv
for example python3 main.py 1 2 3
i don't even get why you are using sys.argv here

[fervent shoal]

would i remove it

[onyx viper]

you can remove it

not sure what that piece of code is doing anyways

[fervent shoal]

that line has been removed, anything else?

[onyx viper]

that whole listener is messed up, cause msg and regexGroups isn't defined
don't know what you want msg and regexGroups to be, so you need to somehow define it

[fervent shoal]

would i delete that entire line?

[onyx viper]

delete the whole listener if you don't know what you're doing with it

25

[fervent shoal]

member is not defined

[onyx viper]

show traceback

[fervent shoal]

there is none

[onyx viper]

nothing we can do about it :/

[fervent shoal]

tf?

[onyx viper]

then where are you getting member is not defined

[fervent shoal]

shows this now

[onyx viper]

yeah it's defined, but you're not using it anywhere

[fervent shoal]

do i remove that line then?

[onyx viper]

you can

what is new_func for

[fervent shoal]

just showed up

[onyx viper]

wdym

[fervent shoal]

quick fix ig

[onyx viper]

for what

[fervent shoal]

the mem

[onyx viper]

the what?

[fervent shoal]

it was "mem" before

[slate swan]

Did discord.py receive an update?

[onyx viper]

nope
