[slate swan]

they were talking about mentions being prefix

[quick gust]

uhuh

[slate swan]

[neat tartan]

Can you send a screenshot of the code in the ide so i can see how its currently formated

[quick gust]

exactly

[quick gust]

meaning you can do @unkempt canyon help and it will respond

[slate swan]

go to sleep bro😭

[slate swan]

yes?

[quick gust]

12 PM not AM

[cyan ermine]

!d discord.Message.mentions

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Message.mentions

A list of Member that were mentioned. If the message is in a private message then the list will be of User instead. For messages that are not of type MessageType.default, this array can be used to aid in system messages. For more information, see system_content.

Warning

The order of the mentions list is not in any particular order so you should not rely on it. This is a Discord limitation, not one with the library.

[quick gust]

Dw

[slate swan]

yeah?

and

[cyan ermine]

@slate swan Can you help me?

[quick gust]

Ok yeah he's definitely high

I don't get the error

[quick gust]

exactly, get off discord

[slate swan]

!indents

[unkempt canyon]

Indentation

Indentation is leading whitespace (spaces and tabs) at the beginning of a line of code. In the case of Python, they are used to determine the grouping of statements.

Spaces should be preferred over tabs. To be clear, this is in reference to the character itself, not the keys on a keyboard. Your editor/IDE should be configured to insert spaces when the TAB key is pressed. The amount of spaces should be a multiple of 4, except optionally in the case of continuation lines.

Example

def foo():
    bar = 'baz'  # indented one level
    if bar == 'baz':
        print('ham')  # indented two levels
    return bar  # indented one level

The first line is not indented. The next two lines are indented to be inside of the function definition. They will only run when the function is called. The fourth line is indented to be inside the if statement, and will only run if the if statement evaluates to True. The fifth and last line is like the 2nd and 3rd and will always run when the function is called. It effectively closes the if statement above as no more lines can be inside the if statement below that line.

Indentation is used after:
1. Compound statements (eg. if, while, for, try, with, def, class, and their counterparts)
2. Continuation lines

More Info
1. Indentation style guide
2. Tabs or Spaces?
3. Official docs on indentation

[quick gust]

lmao

[slate swan]

or what

[quick gust]

teacher schold

[cyan ermine]

So what should i do?

[quick gust]

scold

[cyan ermine]

I dont know stuff

[slate swan]

turns off

[quick gust]

good

[neat tartan]

It looks like things are double indented?

[cyan ermine]

wdym

[slate swan]

i cant leave tho

your help is bad😔

[cyan ermine]

Wdym dude?

I'm a beginner and learn from source code

[slate swan]

not you

infernum

[neat tartan]

There should be 1 line under each try: not 2. It looks like its double indented

[cyan ermine]

so i didnt learn about indentation till now

[slate swan]

👀

[quick gust]

bro

[quick gust]

i hope you're joking because you make no sense 😭😭

[slate swan]

like bro what😭

[quick gust]

..

[neat tartan]

I hate being on mobile because i cant give examples aaaaa

[quick gust]

Im not gonna argue because it's 2 am for you and I understand how your brain works at 2 am

[slate swan]

[quick gust]

satisfied?

[neat tartan]

Try just indenting the bottom exception and see if it accepts it

[quick gust]

https://support-dev.discord.com/hc/en-us/articles/4404772028055-Message-Content-Privileged-Intent-for-Verified-Bots

A bot will also always be able to get this information from:

[slate swan]

Add, *

[mild harbor]

me?

or no

[slate swan]

He deleted

[mild harbor]

u mean that

@slate swan this?

[slate swan]

No

[mild harbor]

oof

ight sorry

[pliant gulch]

Without message intents, is the gateway event still dispatched but with a partial message object, or is it not dispatched at all like with how member intents and GUILD_MEMBER_ADD works?

[quick gust]

not sure, but I'm guessing yeah

[slate swan]

async def msg(ctx, user, discord.User,*,msg)```

[quick gust]

you can check this link

[slate swan]

good luck infernum

andy is gonna send a whole paragraph on how youre wrong😭

[quick gust]

?

I dont mind it

[slate swan]

🏃

[slate swan]

async def msg(ctx, user, discord.User,*,msg)```

Add *

[pliant gulch]

Ok that article answered my question

[slate swan]

you cant add a class as params?

[pliant gulch]

I remember hearing about it but I forgot

[strong vessel]

it looks like it sends the event but without the message content etc

[pliant gulch]

Yea

[strong vessel]

If your bot or app is not approved for message content, the following fields of the message object in Gateway and API payloads will be empty—either an empty string or empty array, depending on the data type—when you receive a message:

content
embeds
attachments
components

[slate swan]

yeah since the intent isnt on why would it

[pliant gulch]

Guess I need to fix my typehints now

[slate swan]

LMAOOO

[quick gust]

If I am wrong, I'll be very glad to be corrected

[slate swan]

yeah

[quick gust]

great

[slate swan]

lucky

[grim oar]

L

[quick gust]

go sleep

[pliant gulch]

Because I’m similar cases it outright doesn’t dispatch the event. Take presence intents, without it PRESENCE_UPDATE is NOT dispatched, you do not receive a partial presence object

[slate swan]

this reply is a W

[grim oar]

I refuse

[slate swan]

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

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

[slate swan]

mhmmm

thats odd

[slate swan]

Off I am at phone so I skip whole code lmao

😅

I am sry abt that

happens i sometimes forget define on mobile

🧑‍🦯

😅

@bot.command()
async def msg(context, user:discord.User,*,message)
  await user.send(message) ```

[slate swan]

capital await lol

Ik that

indents are off

and forgot a colon

Lmao mob problem

so you know each indentation level should be 4 spaces or a tab to follow pep8

Hmm

tab == 4 spaces

Ik or a tab space

each colon adds a indentation level btw

Hmm

[quick gust]

u can "turn on indents" on discord?

[slate swan]

Yah

[quick gust]

or are u just talking about 4 spaces

[slate swan]

okimii has been disconnected from the gateway

Lmao

[slate swan]

spaces😭

Hmm

indents != intents

[quick gust]

ah ok

[quick gust]

i know lol

[slate swan]

and you have members intents on?

cause i dont

Yes my bot on

[quick gust]

we were talking about indents right?

[slate swan]

my client doesnt cache members

^

[quick gust]

but yes i do

[slate swan]

i disabled it 🧠

[quick gust]

why does this say 100 servers?

but article says 75

[slate swan]

its 75

[quick gust]

why 100 then

[strong vessel]

the actual system kicks off at 75 though

[slate swan]

when you get a message from the system it says 75 and if you check the length of the guilds your bot is in its 75

[quick gust]

confusion

[quick gust]

okay

[strong vessel]

my guess is maybe discord's idea is that when a bot hits 75 servers it would get the warning, and at 100 servers the messages would become blank

[slate swan]

not only messages

[strong vessel]

since even the application process only becomes available on hitting the threshold (75 ig)

[slate swan]

PRESENCE INTENT
Required for your bot to receive Presence Update events.

NOTE: Once your bot reaches 100 or more servers, this will require verification and approval. Read more here

SERVER MEMBERS INTENT
Required for your bot to receive events listed under GUILD_MEMBERS.

NOTE: Once your bot reaches 100 or more servers, this will require verification and approval. Read more here

MESSAGE CONTENT INTENT
This intent will not be enforced until after April 30, 2022. Read more here.
Will be required for your bot to receive message content in most messages.

lol

[strong vessel]

jfl i just got my bot working too, i feel so silly now

but oh well at least i have the chance to do it right from the start

[quick gust]

im not even gonna bother tbh, i dont like slash commands

[slate swan]

bro.

[quick gust]

so if I get denied then boom goes my bot

lmfao

[slate swan]

how do you not like slash commands

[quick gust]

idk

[slate swan]

how do you not know

[quick gust]

good question

i dont have an answer

[strong vessel]

prefix is easier to understand than mentions, but slash commands seem really complex

[slate swan]

slash commands arent hard?

its a whole ui for them how are they hard?

[quick gust]

they're a mess from a user's POV, imagine 15 bots in a server, all have all their commands as / commands

[slate swan]

no?

[quick gust]

what

ok sure, that's just preference

[strong vessel]

idk i never used slash commands much myself

[quick gust]

*imo

[slate swan]

one of the reasons / commands are better is bots to overwrite each other and if you dont know a command or you dont know the prefix of the bot you should go straight to slash commands because its like a default prefix

[strong vessel]

but is it easy to make the same command many times though

[slate swan]

just like any command

[strong vessel]

i guess its good actually

[slate swan]

it just takes interaction and not Context and a new decorator

[strong vessel]

good for users, but complex for me

[slate swan]

and other stuff you have to add

[slate swan]

well not for me🏃

[strong vessel]

i like that i don't have to build my own UI to list all the stuff the bot can do

[slate swan]

what are you talking about slash commands?

or dropdowns?

[strong vessel]

i mean i was trying to figure out how to make a lot of commands for my bot but in a way that users could navigate easily, and the slash commands does a really good job for that

[slate swan]

yeah

dropdowns are good for help commands as well

[strong vessel]

discord bot development is so involved ngl

[slate swan]

ig so

[strong vessel]

i mean its great it has all these things though

[opaque tiger]

Hello Everyone!! Help needed here!!
#1: For how long is a button usable
#2: How can I make it usable after I have restarted the bot

[slate swan]

1.forever until a reset or you stop listening to it
2.persistent views

[opaque tiger]

thanks, whats persistent views

[slate swan]

!d discord.Client.persistent_views

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Client.persistent\_views

A sequence of persistent views added to the client.

New in version 2.0.

[slate swan]

yeah

[opaque tiger]

thanks will look into it 🙏

hi dek

[maiden fable]

No thanks

[slate swan]

bro

[velvet tinsel]

?

[velvet tinsel]

nice puppy

[velvet tinsel]

change your profile picture

[slate swan]

thx

gn

[maiden fable]

Calm down

[slate swan]

• Use AsyncIOScheduler (coz your bot is async.. right? And you need to run coros)
• apscheduler isn't an extension to discord related libraries, so you don't need to pass bot in init, instead do ```py
  from apscheduler.schedulers.asyncio import AsyncIOScheduler
  bot.scheduler = AsyncIOScheduler(event_loop=bot.loop)

- Make your `remind_user` async, and either make `create_reminder` and `cancel_reminder` async or remove await while executing them
- The `id` param..? If you want to cancel reminders later, create a random unique id, store it somewhere, and while cancelling the reminder use that id. Don't do `id="same_unique_id_which_you_used_while_adding_job"` this

[maiden fable]

Uhhhh?

[placid skiff]

I already saw doing this but i never found an explaination of what it does xD

[slate swan]

Ohh shit I forgot to reply mention lol

[slate swan]

@flat solstice ^ Reply to your last message

btw i want a trigger command to execute only 1/4 of the times

so like

if there's an event there's a 1/4 chance the bot will trigger

[slate swan]

Possibility?

Yes

I want to use a copy pasta

Use the random module, generate random numbers, use conditionals

hmm

How would that work

[slate swan]

Dude

Use random.randint, and then use conditionals

sure

If random_num == 2: return

Like this

Or just use random.choice and use bools, your wish

Yeah wait lemme try

Oki

[slate swan]

hey would you suggest me to learn js to make a music bot or use python as i know it (for making music bot)

[slate swan]

None

Music bots break youtube's TOS

[slate swan]

Spotify?

[slate swan]

And how do you plan to retrieve audio?

[quick gust]

spotify_dl

[slate swan]

Hm, I dont think thats a good idea though ;-;

Lemme see

!pypi spotify_dl

[unkempt canyon]

spotify-dl v8.1.0

Downloads songs from a Spotify Playlist/Track/Album that you provide

[slate swan]

Okay currently I'm working on slash commands so i thought i should learn more coz many of things are now copy/pasta

[nimble plume]

what is this

[nimble plume]

folder name music if link is not in music send import by !import link
!play music

[green bluff]

what is wrong with this

[nimble plume]

permissiomn

of the user

is not true

[slate swan]

The bot does not have the permission to kick users

[slate swan]

Huh?

[vocal snow]

full traceback?

[green bluff]

dw i got it

[slate swan]

Check bots permission

[green bluff]

yea fixed it

[slate swan]

Okay

[green bluff]

ty do

[frozen elk]

Pls read the error carefully before posting it here

[quick gust]

that will raise BotMissingPermissions, and not MissingPermissions

[flat solstice]

Oh thanks for the explanation. And yeah I wasn't going to keep "same unique I'd" bit, I just haven't figured out what I'm going to make the ID be. I was thinking about making it be a auto incrementing column of my db but I can't find any docs for adyncpg related to incrementing columns

[slate swan]

Make the ID a combination of str(user_id) + datetime.now().isoformat(). It'll always be unique unless the user is so fast to create two reminders in a nanosecond

[flat solstice]

Huh, that's not a bad idea, no wonder I didn't think of it

[slate swan]

it was working before, but then how come after i changed the bot token and bot app, it doesnt work anymore

eol while scanning literal

pls help thx

[snow ibex]

The indent seems off i don't know tho

[slate swan]

?

[snow ibex]

Are you using on message to make commands

[slate swan]

yeah

[snow ibex]

Hmm can you show the whole on message

[slate swan]

import discord
from discord.ext import commands
from discord.ext import tasks

import time
import random
import asyncio
import json
import os

class MyClient(discord.Client):
async def on_ready(self):
print('Logged on as', self.user)
version = discord.Activity(type=discord.ActivityType.watching, name=f"{len(client.guilds)} servers!")
await client.change_presence(status=discord.Status.online, activity=version)

#chatbot
async def on_message(self, message):
# don't respond to ourselves
if message.author == self.user:
return

client = MyClient()
client.run('bot token')

[slate swan]

its too long, thousands of lines of code

[snow ibex]

Ah i see

[slate swan]

cuz my discord accct recently got disabled so i had to create a new bot application

[snow ibex]

You should probably make actual commands instead of using on message

[slate swan]

nah it would take too long

[snow ibex]

Oh wait

I'm stupid

Hmm

Have you tried removing the #bot command comment

Don't know if it will fix it

[slate swan]

?

[snow ibex]

But that indent seems off to em

[snow ibex]

#bot command

[slate swan]

hmm ok

still error

help for server unlock

[slate swan]

You probably forgot an " somewhere

Maybe where you replaced the bot token??

[slate swan]

help

stop spamming

[slate swan]

[slate swan]

Sorry I don't use discord.py 🛐

[slate swan]

[velvet tinsel]

I mean

I am a PEP8 regulator

[slate swan]

this is where it came from

[visual island]

it's optional

[slate swan]

[visual island]

you dont really need it

[visual island]

by that I mean "what's wrong with that code"

[slate swan]

not working no changes in channels

[slate swan]

problem?

[velvet tinsel]

Ah

[visual island]

try set it to True not None

[velvet tinsel]

I thought you said the profile picture was js

I was scared for a second

[slate swan]

bruh but i dont want everyone to send msgs only roles linke family or verified should be able to do it

[visual island]

ah

ctx.channels doesn't exist

[slate swan]

if i set it to true bro then even one which have muted will got burrrrrrrrrrrrr

[slate swan]

so what should i do

[visual island]

use the channel var you defined in the loop

[twilit merlin]

Hey all

I want to learn python

[slate swan]

go watch a tutorial and start no one is going to spoonfeed

lets check

[twilit merlin]

!resources

[visual island]

but, are you sure you didn't get any error before?

[slate swan]

should work

show code

[slate swan]

changed for 1 channel

[visual island]

you probably forgot to close a quote or something on the lines above

[slate swan]

not all

Find this line in your code and check the syntax

changed only for 1 channel

bad indentation, you cannot use await outside the function

[visual island]

you forgot one )

[slate swan]

anyone

[slate swan]

check for errors

if you dont get one, maybe your error handler is blocking it

[slate swan]

no error

hm then you miss the closing bracket for send

he wanted to say bracket

[slate swan]

.

[frozen elk]

[slate swan]

You added an extra bracket in first line

all hardwork

[gusty hatch]

can someone send discord components link

[slate swan]

!pip discord-components

[unkempt canyon]

An unofficial library for discord components.

[maiden fable]

true = True

[slate swan]

hmm ill check

[vale wing]

😳 this again

Pretty sure it is commands.Bot

[gusty hatch]

oh

[slate swan]

eol while scanning literal error /discord.py/ pls help me thx

[gusty hatch]

i knew that

[slate swan]

my discord accct recently got disabled so i had to create a new bot application, it was working before, but then how come after i changed the bot token and bot app, it doesnt work anymore

[vale wing]

Why making commands like this..

[slate swan]

its from long time ago

[vale wing]

Migrate then, it is not a good method

[slate swan]

what methods are ppl using for discord.py?

currently

[vale wing]

And I doubt the error is in those strings

[slate swan]

how to fix?

[vale wing]

Check this out https://tutorial.vcokltfre.dev/

[slate swan]

k

thx

[vale wing]

You are probably missing a closing bracket or a quote somewhere

But not in the strings you sent here

[slate swan]

oh ok

its thousands of lines of code :/

[slate swan]

i hope i find it, thxs

whats a redirect url?

i need to add my discord.py bot in my server.

[visual island]

make your website, then make a path like https://mydomain.com/invite then add the link to Redirects

[slate swan]

so i need to buy a domain?

before i didnt need to...

[visual island]

what are you trying to accomplish

[slate swan]

before this i can add the bot directly to servers

[visual island]

you forgot the required parameter when registering a slash command

[slate swan]

why now cannot? need own domain?

[visual island]

use the invite url

[slate swan]

how do i find the invite url?

[visual island]

Your app -> OAuth2 -> URL Generator -> select scopes (usually Bot and Application Commands) & perms you need -> Copy Link (on the button of the page)

[slate swan]

ok let me try it

@bot.command()

Not working embed, why?

Guys guys, how do I get all the commands inside one cog after a command is invoked in another cog ;-;

[visual island]

bot.get_cog() then cog.get_commands()

[slate swan]

ah oki, thankss

[visual island]

"Not working" isn't really helping

[slate swan]

🤔

[visual island]

any error?

[placid skiff]

fixed

[visual island]

👍

[slate swan]

No, the participant kicks, but the embed does not work, there is nothing in the console

[crisp haven]

Guys, I was able to run my bot for three months and then now somehow its not working

[visual island]

it doesn't send?

[crisp haven]

is this possible to happen

how to let my bot display "add to server" button?

pls help thx, how to let my bot display "add to server" button?

[visual island]

How to get the Add to server button to your bot's profile:

• Go to https://discord.com/developers/applications/ and select your bot.
• From the side menu click on Oauth2 -> General
• Modify the Default Authorization Link section with a Custom URL or In-App authorization

[slate swan]

ok thanks it works

[slate swan]

Not work

ing

[visual island]

firstly time.sleep() is blocking, use asyncio.sleep() instead, second, what do you mean by "it skips the question"?

[visual island]

doesn't print?

[slate swan]

Yes

There is nothing in the console

[visual island]

did the member got kicked?

[slate swan]

Yes

[visual island]

do you have an error handler?

[slate swan]

No

[light violet]

client.add_cog(Antinuke(client))

The above exception was the direct cause of the following exception:

wht to do

class Antinuke(commands.Cog):
def init(self, client, headers):
self.client = client
self.color = 0x2f3136
self.headers = headers

[visual island]

now try putting debug prints before .kick() and after it, and see where it stops

[light violet]

pls help

[visual island]

you can make so headers has a default value

[slate swan]

Okay

[light violet]

how

[slim ibex]

hello everyone I am back

[visual island]

headers=None or something

[light violet]

ok

[light violet]

def init(self, client, headers=None):
self.client = client
self.color = 0x2f3136
self.headers = headers

this?

[slim ibex]

move self.headers above self.color

[visual island]

sure

[light violet]

lemme try

[slim ibex]

and the error seems like it’s from your setup function

[visual island]

not really needed, but okay

[slim ibex]

which means you need to pass headers into the setup function

cog_name(bot, headers)

[light violet]

actully i wanted to make this work

@commands.Cog.listener()
    async def on_member_ban(self, guild, user):
        start = datetime.datetime.now().timestamp()
        reason = "R Anti-Nuke | Banning Members"
        async with aiohttp.ClientSession(headers=self.headers) as session:
                    
                async with session.put("https://discord.com/api/v9/guilds/%s/bans/%s" % (guild.id, user), json={"reason": reason}) as r:
                            took = round((datetime.datetime.now().timestamp() - start), 3)
                            
                            if r.status in (200, 201, 204):
                                logging.info("Successfully banned %s" % (user))
                                c = self.bot.get_channel(940206336824737804)
                                await c.send(f"Banned %s, took: {took}" % (user))
                            else:
                                logging.error(f"Could not ban %s" % (user))   ```

@slim ibex@visual island

[slim ibex]

you probably should only use this self.headers in the function it is needed so the constructor isn’t fucked

[dry junco]

A wats that suppose to do?
Im curious

[visual island]

why making requests by your own?

[crisp haven]

At the Linux section of my repl

[light violet]

to make ban more fast cuz threaded nukers can nuke easily so i want to ban them faster , btw this doesnt ban the intruder what to do

[serene mantle]

Why don’t use you just use the discord api wrapper

[light violet]

idk how to

[serene mantle]

Trust me.

[light violet]

i got this faster

[serene mantle]

Learn

[visual island]

its probably just a ratelimit message but in raw html format

[serene mantle]

The api wrapper is so much simpler

[velvet tinsel]

it’s not?

[light violet]

coudnt find docs provide link

[serene mantle]

You don’t need docs

[crisp haven]

And I somehow also read this

[serene mantle]

There’s this YouTube series it’s super helpful

[visual island]

!d discord.Member.ban why not use this?

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Member.ban

await ban(*, delete_message_days=1, reason=None)```
This function is a [*coroutine*](https://docs.python.org/3/library/asyncio-task.html#coroutine).

Bans this member. Equivalent to [`Guild.ban()`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/api.html#discord.Guild.ban "discord.Guild.ban").

[light violet]

slower bro intruder makes 50 bans easily and then gets ban using threade nuker

[visual island]

what did you do?

[slate swan]

how much field can i add to the embed

[serene mantle]

This is a wrapper function

[serene mantle]

https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLW3GfRiBCHOhfVoiDZpSz8SM_HybXRPzZ

[crisp haven]

nothing much, I accidentally deleted the code but then was able to restore everything back to normal and then clicked run

[serene mantle]

https:// youtube.com/playlist?list=PLW3GfRiBCHOhfVoiDZpSz8SM_HybXRPzZ

[crisp haven]

it was ok from yesterday until few hours ago

[visual island]

It's slower? No.

[light violet]

i dont want member.ban()

[light violet]

yes indeed from my self experience

[crisp haven]

it was running fine for three months straight tho

[slate swan]

^^

[serene mantle]

Ah okay, well that playlist will teach you discord.py

[visual island]

discord API has it's own latency, so it doesn't really depends on your code

[slate swan]

i need answer fast

[serene mantle]

As many as you like I believe

[visual island]

25

[slate swan]

ok thanks

[sage otter]

Playlist from Lucas? Nice. Totally the best thing to learn from.

[light violet]

so i ma using api is discord v9 api the fastest?

till

[flat solstice]

okay so this is where I'm at so far```py

[final iron]

That is a very bad series

[slim ibex]

💀

[visual island]

shouldn't be, but the latest API should fit the best

[light violet]

i ws serching or it only pls provide me tht

keybord rip

+_+

[slim ibex]

Unless I’m blind, why do you import typing and not use it

[visual island]

anyways ```py
headers = { 'Authorization': f'Bot {self.bot.http.token}', 'Content-Type': 'application/json' }

[light violet]

is this fast

[flat solstice]

because a repurposed a template cog which includes it bc I use it quite often and I just hadn't got round to removing it yet bc i'm lazy

[visual island]

it really depends on the API latency as I said

[slim ibex]

you should remove unused imports. It populates the namespace with unneeded stuff

[visual island]

nothing to do with your code

[light violet]

class Antinuke(commands.Cog):
def init(self, client, headers = { 'Authorization': f'Bot {self.bot.http.token}', 'Content-Type': 'application/json' }):
self.client = client
self.headers = headers
self.color = 0x2f3136

self isnt identiied

[crisp haven]

And also what does this mean?

[slim ibex]

Don’t push a localhost server to production

it’s just for development

[visual island]

show full error

[slim ibex]

It’s running on your local machine

[visual island]

wait

[crisp haven]

and how do I do that?

[visual island]

not there

[flat solstice]

good to know

[light violet]

unidentified name self

[slim ibex]

It’s already running in development when you run a flask or Django app

[crisp haven]

ouh but then I didnt push it to production at all

[visual island]

pass it in headers inside async with aiohttp.ClientSession()

[light violet]

ok

[slim ibex]

deploying it entails uploading all the code to a hosting service, getting SSL certificates, getting a domain, etc

[light violet]

lemme try

[slim ibex]

it’s just a warning saying to never push a localhost to production

[light violet]

shoudl i do self.client.?

[crisp haven]

ahh ok, but then somehow its not running and its saying I got temporarily banned somehow by doing nothing

[visual island]

depends on your var

[slim ibex]

What are you even doing?

[light violet]

ok

[crisp haven]

tbh at this point, I also dont know

[gusty hatch]

why do i keep getting interaction failed on my dropdown/select menu

[slim ibex]

Show code

[gusty hatch]

theres literally nothing wrong with my code

[slim ibex]

!code

[unkempt canyon]

Here's how to format Python code on Discord:

```py
print('Hello world!')
```

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

[gusty hatch]

one monute it works the other it doesnt

[slim ibex]

maybe it timed out

[light violet]

@slim ibex@visual islandthanks 4 ur helps it worked thanks a lot

[slim ibex]

np

[gusty hatch]

theres no timeout

[slim ibex]

maybe the api is being stupid

idk

[light violet]

api v6 is slower than v9 maybe

i think so

[final iron]

Why are you going through the bare api anyway

[light violet]

to make fast response

[final iron]

The difference is most likely a matter of 10s of milliseconds

It does not matter

[light violet]

yes i need that diff only

i want to make the fastest

[slim ibex]

🗿

[final iron]

Then don't use python

[slim ibex]

Speed isn’t everything

[slim ibex]

^

[final iron]

Its extremely slow compared to other languages

[light violet]

it matters like in threaded antinuke even the fastest nuker can bypass it with 5 bans btw normal antinuke it bypasses with 50 bans

[light violet]

everything in certain situations

[slim ibex]

yeah when ur making a fucking OS

[light violet]

bruh no

i cant make u understand

actually

[random sleet]

it skips the question but takes all the others

[slate swan]

Looks good to me. One thing in remind command is, reply to the user after creating the reminder, so in case if some error occurs, user won't get a fake message about their reminder being set

[lost vine]

Someone help me with this error please. I'm using discord.py v2.0

https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.Emoji.url_as wait wha-

[slate swan]

Removed in 2.0

This link is of 1.7

[lost vine]

Then what should I use

[slate swan]

emoji.url?

[lost vine]

It doesn't accept str

It needs the Asset type

[slate swan]

iirc 2.0 has some (a lot?) changes related to Asset and stuff

[lost vine]

Yeah

[sage otter]

!d discord.Asset.with_static_format

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Asset.with\_static\_format

with_static_format(format, /)```
Returns a new asset with the specified static format.

This only changes the format if the underlying asset is not animated. Otherwise, the asset is not changed.

[sage otter]

there’s also Asset.with_format

[slate swan]

Is Emoji also an asset?

[lost vine]

uhmm

[slate swan]

It's a property not callable

[sage otter]

Excuse me my bad.

[lost vine]

then how can I convert it into an asset

[flat solstice]

👍 And if I wanted to log the IDs for each task, what would be the best way to do that. I currently have a SQL database but would a nosql database be better suited to this type of use?

[sage otter]

What’s the implementation again. If you mind me asking.

[lost vine]

Ughh what

[sage otter]

Like what’s your goal?

[lost vine]

I want to make an addemoji command

And I want to convert the emoji into an asset url

[sage otter]

you're using Guild.create_custom_emoji()

That takes bytes.

So you could use Emoji.read()

[slate swan]

emoji.url will also return you the url of emoji.. I guess it should work for your application? Can you just share more code please?

[sage otter]

if you have an emoji object already.

[lost vine]

Uhmm wdym tbh this is the codeline
emoji = await ctx.guild.create_custom_emoji(image=await asset.read(), name=name)

[lost vine]

    @commands.has_permissions(manage_emojis=True)
    async def addemoji(self, ctx, emoji: discord.Emoji,*, name=None):
        asset = emoji.url()
        if not name:
            name = emoji.name
        emoji = await ctx.guild.create_custom_emoji(image=await asset.read(), name=name)
        await ctx.send(f"Emoji <:{emoji.name}:{emoji.id}> was added!")

[slate swan]

url is not a callable

Just do emoji.read() and remove asset

[lost vine]

Oh ok

let me have a try

@slate swan thank you so much bro

[slate swan]

Np 👍

[boreal ravine]

why are you guys spoonfeeding them

you gave no description on what emoji.read() does

.

[pale turtle]

Not sure if this is the place to ask, but does someone have any API's for currency? Like bitcoin, dogecoin and all of that?

[sage otter]

Coinbase

[sage otter]

Obviously if I said Guild.create_custom_emoji takes bytes and I told him to use emoji.read() where you’d pass image. He could more than likely infer that emoji.read() returns the emojis representation in bytes.

[pale turtle]

Does it require an API key or something?

[slate swan]

Kick command, embed doesn't work, why?

@bot.command()
@commands.has_any_role(692760082085183519, 940008547993927691)

@final iron its ok clicking but if u trade it gonna steal all ur items but gonna look like u get items

[final iron]

Yeah I know...

I pinged moderators for a reason...

[slate swan]

I would like to convert this bot command into a function that i can call from another python file. When I call the function that the function sends the embeded message to a specific channel

    # Embded message command shows the embded info
    @commands.command(name="hello")
    @commands.has_role("Admin")
    async def hello(self, ctx: commands.Context):
        
        embed = discord.Embed(title="productname", url="https://test.com", colour=0x87CEEB, timestamp=datetime.utcnow())
        embed.set_author(name="retailer", icon_url="https://avatars.githubusercontent.com/u/16879430")
        embed.add_field(name="test", value="test", inline=False)
        embed.add_field(name="test", value="An inline field!", inline=True)
        embed.add_field(name="Field 3", value="Look I'm inline with field 2!", inline=True)
        embed.set_footer(text="Some footer!", icon_url="https://cdn.discordapp.com/emojis/754736642761424986.png")
        await ctx.send(embed=embed)

[final iron]

Just fetch the channel then

Or make ctx a parameter in the function

[honest vessel]

or send as webhook

[slate swan]

By using a webhook you can't send an embeded message right?

[slate swan]

I'm pretty new to discord py. By fetching do you mean define the channel like this?

channel = commands.get_channel(channel_id)
await channel.ctx.send(embed=embed)

[neon ruin]

yes

[honest vessel]

u can send embeds as webhooks to

[slate swan]

i guess that's much easier to do it. couldn't find any info how to do this

[honest vessel]

@slate swan do u mean u wanna send embed wen u run a python script, or u want same embed in another cog?

[placid skiff]

get a user with only his mention without using converters?

[slate swan]

Just want to send embed when running from another pythons script

[honest vessel]

if i understand u correct, then i would check webhooks u need like 2lines of code

[slate swan]

I was using webhooks but couldn't sent embeds that why i changed to discord py. but if its possible i will for sure use webhooks again

[honest vessel]

aight hold on one sec

@slate swanhttps://pypi.org/project/discord-webhook/#basic-webhook

from discord_webhook import DiscordWebhook, DiscordEmbed

webhook = DiscordWebhook(url='your webhook url')

# create embed object for webhook
# you can set the color as a decimal (color=242424) or hex (color='03b2f8') number
embed = DiscordEmbed(title='Your Title', description='Lorem ipsum dolor sit', color='03b2f8')

# add embed object to webhook
webhook.add_embed(embed)

response = webhook.execute()
``` an example of embed

[slate swan]

Niceee

[slate swan]

Thanks this is where i was looking for. Well at least learned a lot about discord bots 😄

[honest vessel]

whats cool with webhooks is you can change avatar and names like it would look like diffrent bots etc

[slate swan]

going to play with it

[compact ruin]

Guys how do i format the cooldown for commands in minutes and not seconds

i cant find it in API or im just blind

[honest vessel]

msg = "Hello WOrld"
nick = "This is a bot!"
thumb = "https://url_to_an_avatar_here"

webhook = DiscordWebhook(url="https://discord.com/api/webhooks/....",
content=msg,
username=nick,
avatar_url=thumb,
rate_limit_retry=True
)
``` @slate swan

if you want diffrent names n avatars

[honest vessel]

i think you will need to make ur own function for that

@compact ruinhttps://stackoverflow.com/questions/775049/how-do-i-convert-seconds-to-hours-minutes-and-seconds here are few examplpes

i think most common is like those

def sec_to_hours(seconds):

    b=str((seconds%3600)//60)
    c=str((seconds%3600)%60)
    d=["{} hours {} mins {} seconds".format(a, b, c)]
    return d


print(sec_to_hours(10000))
# ['2 hours 46 mins 40 seconds']

print(sec_to_hours(60*60*24+105))
# ['24 hours 1 mins 45 seconds']

  def time_format(seconds: int):
    if seconds is not None:
        seconds = int(seconds)
        d = seconds // (3600 * 24)
        h = seconds // 3600 % 24
        m = seconds % 3600 // 60
        s = seconds % 3600 % 60
        if d > 0:
            return '{:02d}D {:02d}H {:02d}m {:02d}s'.format(d, h, m, s)

[flat solstice]

isn't there a way to code idents like /n? I keep doing >>> text in my code but I'm pretty sure there's a easer way right?

[maiden fable]

!d discord.ext.commands.Bot.change_presence @velvet haven

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ext.commands.Bot.change\_presence

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

Changes the client’s presence.

Example

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

[maiden fable]

Mind giving an example?

[serene mantle]

Anyone know a way to check if a user is marked as a spammer?

But with discord.py not disnake

[maiden fable]

Not possible

[flat solstice]

>>> text would be

text
and i thought i saw someone mention here the other day that there's a way to code that with something like /n newline but I can't remember what it was, if they even gave a example

[serene mantle]

Damn

[slate swan]

you cannot do anything new with discord.py

[serene mantle]

I guess I’m gonna import a whole another api wrapper

Just for one feature

[slate swan]

just change all discord s to Disnake?

everything's same

[serene mantle]

Eh

I heard there are issues with disnake

[maiden fable]

Nope?

BTW there's hikari and rin too

[serene mantle]

Disnake works fine right now?

[maiden fable]

!pypi rin is also a great choice

[unkempt canyon]

rin v0.1.1

A successor to the Lefi project

[slate swan]

you heard wrong

[serene mantle]

Yes I’ve heard about hikari

[slate swan]

It always did

[serene mantle]

What do you guys think I should migrate to?

Hikari or disnake

[maiden fable]

I would like u to check out rin too

[slate swan]

hikari if you're able to rewrite your complete bot
Disnake if you don't want to

[serene mantle]

Why Rin?

[serene mantle]

When you say rewrite

Are we talking like

Change some variables or re do everything

[slate swan]

You would have to change literally everything

[maiden fable]

It got some good non mainstream API implementations which I like tbh. No harm in checking it out at least haha

[slate swan]

Hikari is not a fork, it's a complete different library

[serene mantle]

Ohh

I see

[slate swan]

and so is rin

[serene mantle]

So I’d have to re do everything if I go with either

If I do decide to migrate

Which would you guys recommend?

Hikari or rin

[maiden fable]

I would prefer u to checkout both of them. Rin is still a WIP, but can be used for some bots, hikari is a complete framework

[slate swan]

my name's biased

[serene mantle]

Lol

[serene mantle]

I see

I think Il just move to disnake

For what I’m doing it doesn’t seem like there’s enough reason to rewrite

[slate swan]

Sure, Disnake is a good choice as well

[bitter field]

Is it possible to add a hook to all commands in discord.py? Essentially i just want to log how often each command gets called.

[serene mantle]

You could just make a variable called count

Then another command that will return all those variables for each command

[slate swan]

when coding a bot, how do i reference a user?

or mention one

[ebon island]

ctx.author will get the user that sent the message for example

and you can do ctx.author.mention and it will mention them

How expensive is calling get_server or get_channel to get the respective Guild or Channel objects from an ID? I have IDs stored in my Redis DB but I can't serialize the objects nor do I really "need" to serialize them either, I'm trying to think of alternative methods of storage, perhaps even something like a nested in memory dictionary as I imagine that will be my most lightweight and performant option. Any ideas?

[vale wing]

I created a custom exec command and it works, but it eats all the errors if there are any for some reason, which means it does nothing when there's an error
https://pastebin.com/BXtzvn6B

[vale wing]

It just gets an object from cache, so not very expensive

[quick gust]

*get_guild btw

[ebon island]

Okay 🙂 So it isn't making an API call to do that? Excellent!

I have another question as well

regarding the use of a get_prefix function, take for example the following:

async def get_prefix(client, message):
    if not message.guild:
        return commands.when_mentioned_or(client.default_prefix)(client, message)
    curr_server = await helpers.get_local_server_object(message)
    prefix = curr_server.prefix
    return commands.when_mentioned_or(prefix)(client, message)

Is this get prefix called every time a command is sent? My reason for asking is if I were accessing a Database to get prefix it might be expensive to call, is that the case or is it in memory?

[quick gust]

every time a message is sent

see the message param?

[ebon island]

Hmm, okay, that could potentially get expensive

[quick gust]

yep

[ebon island]

I'm going to have to think about how to do it in that case 🙂 Thank you!

However, I can take advantage of that as well, I could have some logic that gets just the prefix from say redis db but if the server isn't already in the redis DB it can do that work so that I can guarantee elsewhere that any server sending commands has a server reference in Redis DB, and can also use that to do initial setup for in memory storage stuff

so it might be a blessing in disguise 🙂

That way I don't have to check for that anywhere else since it is guaranteed to be handled before any command is even registered

Thank you 🙂

[prime ibex]

a simple way would be create a simple empty dictionary with ur bot variable ie bot.prefix_cache = {} and store prefixes in that, so what u need to do next is check for this dict if it has data related to that guild then send it else fetch from ur db and add it to that dict. This is a nice and easy implementation of caching which many people use

[pliant gulch]

Databases are built to be queried a lot so it’s fine, if you still want to save processing power you may cache previous queried prefixes in-memory via a mapping of guild id to prefix key pair

Another good choice is having a redis caching layer which many large companies do

[ebon island]

I was considering that, but it could get outdated as well

I am using Redis as my primary DB so I imagine it will be relatively expensive since it can make atomic requests and just get the intended value

[pliant gulch]

How would it get outdated?

[ebon island]

I will use caching anyway to track tasks either way

[pliant gulch]

Just make sure to update the cache when a user uses a command to set the prefix

[ebon island]

I will eventually have other applications that are able to change the prefix though

but maybe I could set up something like a redis stream and have a listener for changes to the prefix so that it updates

so I could work around that as well

[pliant gulch]

If your other applications are able to access the in-memory cache that would be ideal, but you could probably also do that

[ebon island]

They will all access my API which will access the Redis DB datastore but I can make it so that when the API writes to the Redis DB it also creates an item in the redis stream and the other apps can react to that or not if not needed

[hollow plank]

not working autorole?

[ebon island]

What is it doing when you attempt this?

[slate swan]

can someone help me get this 🇾 into a reaction?

I keep getting an error of "emoji argument must be str, Emoji, or Reaction not NoneType."

[hollow plank]

asking me?

[ebon island]

Looks like add_roles wants a list

[slate swan]

emoji = client.get_emoji(940273239920377896)
emoji = discord.utils.get(client.emojis, name=':regional_indicator_y: ')

ive tried those two

[ebon island]

so try [role]

[hollow plank]

okayy

[ebon island]

https://docs.disnake.dev/en/latest/api.html?highlight=add_role#disnake.Member.add_roles

[slate swan]

nvm ill just use this 👍

[ebon island]

Actually, I might be mistaken, I think the *roles just makes it into a list

[hollow plank]

still not working

[ebon island]

per a little searching, this appears to be a potential solution

instead of passing in role pass in the following:

discord.utils.get(user.guild.roles, name=role)

async def addrole(ctx):
    user = ctx.message.author 
    role = 'role' #change the role here
    try:
        await user.add_roles(discord.utils.get(user.guild.roles, name=role)) 
    except Exception as e:
        await ctx.send('Cannot assign role. Error: ' + str(e))

ctx.message.author is probably not necessary, ctx.author I think suffices in current dpy

but give that a try and see if that works for you 🙂

[hollow plank]

👍

wait

still not working

[quick gust]

simply just

Message.add_reaction(":regional_indicator_y:")

should work

[hollow plank]

Ignoring exception in on_member_join Traceback (most recent call last): File "C:\Users\Atk\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python38\lib\site-packages\discord\client.py", line 343, in _run_event await coro(*args, **kwargs) TypeError: on_member_join() missing 1 required positional argument: 'user'

but

[quick gust]

you're inside a cog

pass in self before member

[tender estuary]

not user.mention but self.user.mention?

[quick gust]

no..?

[tender estuary]

was a question

[quick gust]

also @hollow plank you have 2 on_member_join events, just combine them

[quick gust]

ah ok, it should be user.mention if you are mentioning a user

[hollow plank]

im trying but

i tried something but still not working

this is my first time with cogs

can somebody help me bros

[kindred epoch]

whats not working

[hollow plank]

autorole

but no errors

[kindred epoch]

try using get_role

[hollow plank]

ha?

[kindred epoch]

!d discord.Guild.get_role

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Guild.get\_role

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

[honest vessel]

@hollow plankkinda fun you have long await with send() in same lines, but defines member_role = "member" instead of name="member"

[hollow plank]

man i tried hundred times, hundred different variations

[maiden fable]

👀

[hollow plank]

cogs

[slate swan]

Help plss

[cold sonnet]

try not converting user to User

a discord.User doesn't have a guild

[hollow plank]

still not working

[maiden fable]

u know...

[cold sonnet]

does it launch

[hollow plank]

yes

[cold sonnet]

how you know

[hollow plank]

maybe its not problem in code

[maiden fable]

you cannot convert an arg to something in an event

It only happens in commands

[cold sonnet]

how do you know it launches

[maiden fable]

What happened tho

[hollow plank]

no errors just nothing bro

[cold sonnet]

then it don't launch

[hollow plank]

:c

[cold sonnet]

add a print statement to the start of the listener

[maiden fable]

intents?

👀

[hollow plank]

print working :c

[cold sonnet]

or make sure you have all of these:
init with every requirement
setup function outside of cog
load the cog

[hollow plank]

yes

[cold sonnet]

bruh

then surely an error happened mid-code and your error handler ate it up

[maiden fable]

not possible

[cold sonnet]

how

[maiden fable]

As long as u don't override on_error, errors are not eatable in events

What's the issue tho

[hollow plank]

._.

[cold sonnet]

got an error handler?

[hollow plank]

no error

[cold sonnet]

[hollow plank]

ahh

[cold sonnet]

.

[hollow plank]

no

[cold sonnet]

damnit

[hollow plank]

idk what to do

[slate swan]

Kick command, embed doesn't work, why?

@bot.command()
@commands.has_any_role(692760082085183519, 940008547993927691)
async def kick(ctx, member: discord.Member, *, reason=None):
    await member.kick(reason=reason)
    emb=discord.Embed(title="Кик пользователя", description="**__Информация:__**", color=discord.Color.from_rgb(0, 255, 0), timestamp=ctx.message.created_at)
    emb.set_footer(text="© Все права защищены The Greatest", icon_url=ctx.author.avatar_url)
    emb.add_field(name="**Участник:**", value=f"**{member.name}** ({member.mention})", inline=False)
    emb.add_field(name="**ID:**", value=f"**{member.id}**", inline=False)
    emb.add_field(name="**Кикнул:**", value=f"**{ctx.author.name}**", inline=False)
    emb.add_field(name="**Причина:**", value=f"Скоро", inline=False)
    emb.add_field(name="**Канал:**", value=f"**<#{message.channel.id}>**", inline=False)

    await ctx.reply(embed=emb)

[quick gust]

firstly, any error?

[slate swan]

There is no error, the person kicks, but there is no embed

[quick gust]

do u have an on_command_error event?

[slate swan]

No

[honest vessel]

can u even reply with embed?

i mean is that even possible overall

[slate swan]

why not

[honest vessel]

i dont know just asking

maybe reply is blocking embeds

[slate swan]

🤔

[honest vessel]

@slate swantry your reply with just a simple string

[slate swan]

should not

[honest vessel]

ah ok

thanks for clearify tho

[quick gust]

ofc

[slate swan]

I did and with await ctx.send the embed was not displayed either

[quick gust]

how do I hide the jishaku cog from displaying in my help command?

[slate swan]

Helpp

[honest vessel]

name="**Участник:**" dosnt this get bold anyway?

without *

[slate swan]

you can just ignore the jishaku cog while adding the embed fields

[quick gust]

I haven't subclassed Jishaku ^

[quick gust]

hmm

[slate swan]

🤔

[quick gust]

okay

[honest vessel]

@slate swanone error that happens with embes can usally be urls, but would't know why it cant show avatar url

are you sue it prints a correct url?

[slate swan]

Remove url?

[honest vessel]

you can basicly just do

@bot.command()
@commands.has_any_role(692760082085183519, 940008547993927691)
async def kick(ctx, member: discord.Member, *, reason=None):
    print(ctx.author.avatar_url)
    return

to see if it gives a valid url

[slate swan]

Ok

[honest vessel]

i dont know correct but i know some always confuse avatar_url, and avatar.url

i think the later is correct tho

[slate swan]

SyntaxError: invalid non-printable character U+200A

[honest vessel]

what lol

[slate swan]

🤔

[honest vessel]

nvr copypasta from discord!

just write it as i show not copy it

but i start think its cause avatar_url is wrong its avatar.url

[slate swan]

Console:

@honest vessel

[honest vessel]

ah ok then u got the url, i cant see any errors else

weird

[slate swan]

Error in another?

[honest vessel]

@slate swanmy eyes cant spot any errors, hard without errors helping what to look for

[slate swan]

Ok

🤔

[neat tartan]

If your dealing with urls couldnt you just throw this into the browser and if it brings up the image it should be correct

[slate swan]

image came out ok

[neat tartan]

Then the url should be ok

[slate swan]

Then the url should be ok

🤔

[neat tartan]

Sorry im kinda jumping in the middle, whats the overall issue? Or a message link to the start to play catchup

[slate swan]

.

[neat tartan]

My suggestion would be to just go through emb and slowly add each embed 1 at a time and trying it until it stops working. And whichever you add that stops it from working is the problem

[slate swan]

🤔

[neat tartan]

When something works and doesnt throw an error but also isnt working as a person intends its very difficult to just be able to provide why it isnt working. The best thing to do is just manually troubleshoot /test the code to see where and then why its not doing what it should

[vast gale]

heck yeah, https://discord.gg/disnake we just got our vanity :3

[sacred reef]

hi im trying to get all members in a role using role.members and im certain the name is correct. however when printed it will just return a empty list

[]

this is my code
tried using a for loop on it but that didnt work either, is there anything wrong

@bot.command()
async def test(ctx):
  role1 = discord.utils.get(ctx.guild.roles,name="telescience")
  print(role1.members)

[neat tartan]

roles,name

It should be .

[sacred reef]

no no that parts correct, i just removed the space because it looks better for me but ill try it

expression cannot contain assignment

thats what it says when i do that

so im pretty sure thats ok but it wont return anyone from the telescience role and im in that role

[neat tartan]

Gimme a moment to check the docs

[neat tartan]

If this how it is returns an empty list. Try moving the .members to the end of "rolel =" line and just print rolel

[sacred reef]

ok

printed telescience

[neat tartan]

Looking at the docs guild.roles returns a list of all the server roles. Try getting rid of the ,name="telescience"
And see if it still prints it

[sacred reef]

it printed @~everyone

hold on

i think i know what the problem is

[neat tartan]

Everyone as in all the people that have it or litterally just @ everyone

[sacred reef]

yea i got it working now

turned out i forgot to turn on member intents since this is a seperate test bot i used for experimenting new stuff with my friend

thanks for the help anyway

[neat tartan]

Ah, sorry i wasnt much help. Im still learning some of these things 😅

[brave moth]

ok, i need someone to review this code for me. this is a calculator code for my bot and i am using eval. however, someone is scaring me that people can exploit it, even if i put float or int. pls let me know how it is. i am using nextcord

Yo! anyone know how I would add overwrites to a channel? e.g. there are already specific ones but I want a new member to be able to view the channel
How would I add them to the channel while remembering the old overwrites

[slate swan]

is there slash commands in the 2.0 d.py?

[green bluff]

client not defined?

[slate swan]

self.client

[green bluff]

ohh okay

[green bluff]

i tried it

and also i have a variable

self.client = client

[slate swan]

I have no idea sorry

[cold sonnet]

self.client

have you like

oop

and pass self to your function

@green bluff

[green bluff]

so

what

i dont understand

[cold sonnet]

pass self to your function

[slate swan]

it wont work for me like the tutorial in the docs

[green bluff]

how

[cold sonnet]

every function of a class
