discord-bots

[slate swan]

if you subclass the bot class just make a run method that connects to the db and inherits the run method from the Bot class so it only gets triggered once as you have only ran the bot once, and just run that method which runs your bot and the other method

[slim ibex]

i also have an overridden run method that loads the cogs

[slate swan]

that as well can also be done

[slim ibex]

you are saying I should move the db connection to run?

[slate swan]

no no

async def run(token: str) -> None:
    await connection()
    cog_setup_method()
    super().run(token, reconnect=bool)

async def botrun() -> None:
    await SubclassName().run("token")

if __name__ == "__main__":
    asyncio.run(botrun())

[supple crescent]

how would i make it so when the bot sees !help, it would paste text, ex: for help, contact the owner!

[slate swan]

something like this i forgot how its done

[slim ibex]

all good, thanks for the help. I'll try it when I wake up tomorrow.

[slate swan]

anytime

[slim ibex]

sometimes the helpers need the help🗿

[slate swan]

😌

[slate swan]

if youre trying to learn how to make bots i recommend you use this tutorial
https://vcokltfre.dev

[supple crescent]

oh cool thx

ill take a look

[slate swan]

no problem!

[tidal hawk]

Why 5 people out of 100, cant see my slash commands?

[sick birch]

if it's a global slash command, it takes time to roll out, they say ~ 1 hour

so perhaps those are in a server that hasn't gotten the slash command yet

[tidal hawk]

So new members need to wait like 1 hour until they get slash commands?

[sick birch]

you mean the embed shows 1?

are you counting the amount of bots?

[tidal hawk]

Why can't users see slash commands in certain channels? if these are global channels, these should pop out from every channel, correct?

[sick birch]

You can just do if member.bot: count += 1 just to simplify things

Can we see your intents?

both

ah

that would explain it

on the ddp yeah

and on discord use .all() for testing

Can i see the updated intents?

and in the code?

!d discord.Intents

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Intents

class discord.Intents(**kwargs)```
Wraps up a Discord gateway intent flag.

Similar to [`Permissions`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/api.html#discord.Permissions "discord.Permissions"), the properties provided are two way. You can set and retrieve individual bits using the properties as if they were regular bools.

To construct an object you can pass keyword arguments denoting the flags to enable or disable.

This is used to disable certain gateway features that are unnecessary to run your bot. To make use of this, it is passed to the `intents` keyword argument of [`Client`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/api.html#discord.Client "discord.Client").

New in version 1.5...

[sick birch]

bot = commands.Bot(..., intents=discord.Intents.all(), ...)

there you are

🤷

doubtful

[final iron]

Def no

Why would they

[slate swan]

Obviously they do, it's just not available to the public

Unless you mess around with session cookies and perform tomfoolery with the help of requests

[sick birch]

Lot of bots employ the use of a private API, mine included

i personally find it easier to do seperation of concerns, such as have interact with a database using an api rather than messing with connectors

[final iron]

Their API is not public

A wrapper is just something that makes it easier to work with an api

If an API isn't public there will not be a wrapper

Link me that

[slate swan]

Yikes is that even allowed?

Then don't do it.

[final iron]

I mean the API is public

I don't see any trickery going on in the package

I don't see why it wouldn't be allowed

Mee6's website is mee6.xyz right

So they do have a public api

[sick birch]

i don't think they do but perhaps someone managed to find the endpoints?

[slate swan]

Their API is not public.

[sick birch]

yet there are these "wrappers"? curious

[final iron]

How do you know?

I'm looking at the GitHub right now

[slate swan]

GitHub for the...?

[leaden dragon]

guys help
in #help-donut

[final iron]

For the wrapper

What tells you the API isn't public

[slate swan]

Exactly, the wrapper. Please point me to where the API is publicly documented and the usage of it is encouraged.

[final iron]

Just because the API isn't documented doesnt mean it's not public

If it wasnt public they would require some sort of verification header

[slate swan]

That's not hard to figure out, you can just head over to /levels/... and check Network tab

[leaden dragon]

anyone?

[slate swan]

Authorization isn't required, but that still doesn't make it public

How is that so hard to understand?

[final iron]

Because if it was meant to be private they would require some sort of verification

It's quite simple

[sick birch]

I mean it's undocumented and they haven't said they even have one so yeah it's not really public

[slate swan]

It's equally as simple to just perform a Google search and try to see the rationale behind what I'm saying.

[final iron]

If they didn't want it to be used they would just add a verification header. Extremely simple

[slate swan]

This isn't an argument, you don't need to defend your claims.

[final iron]

I'm seeing it as such

[slate swan]

Then I'm not continuing this conversation.

[sick birch]

does have a point, it's sort of confusing how they have an api that basically looks like it has public endpoints

at least that's what i'm gathering from looking at these wrappers

[final iron]

Maybe they just don't want a lot of traffic

[slate swan]

Well, viewing server xp leaderboards would be more painful if the user had go through the whole OAuth2 process.

Especially on mobile.

[final iron]

How about someone just contacts them

[leaden dragon]

😔

[stiff anvil]

Is there a way to turn on 2 bots, With one python file?

And how do I print {client} is now online

And instead of client, It should show the bot name

anyone?

ping me please...

[sick birch]

you're looking for on_ready

[stiff anvil]

yes and?

[sage otter]

you can use multiprocessing.

[stiff anvil]

Is it hard? And are you sure it's gonna work on discord bots?

I'm tryna cheat my Hosting Service and run 2 bots at the same timey

[upbeat vigil]

hey, my bot wont start and i dont understand the console error

[stiff anvil]

change your main.py to setup.py

[sage otter]

The concept itself isn’t that complex but I’ve used it before to start multiple processes at the same time and it works fine. I wouldn’t imagine it being different with discord bots since they're basically processes.

[upbeat vigil]

oh

[upbeat vigil]

ill try that thank you

[stiff anvil]

keep me updated :)

[alpine furnace]

Yeah, just run each bot.run() task in an asyncio.create_task

And then gather them at the end, when you want to block

[stiff anvil]

I've never used asyncios

[upbeat vigil]

the same thing happened, do you have anythign else in mind?

[alpine furnace]

Well, you should learn it, because the library you are using is async-enabled 😃

[stiff anvil]

I will try it, ty :)

[alpine furnace]

Np

[stiff anvil]

Send me the new error

with full screen please

or just copy it and send it as a code block

!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.

[upbeat vigil]

oh sorry

[stiff anvil]

no?

Send it...

[stiff anvil]

ty

[slate swan]

@stiff anvil why do you want to run it with one python file?

[stiff anvil]

do you have a requirements.txt ?

[upbeat vigil]

i do not

[stiff anvil]

I'm tryna cheat my Hosting Service and run 2 bots at the same time

[stiff anvil]

That's probably the issue

[final iron]

So apparently the MEE6 endpoints are not for public use and apparently there is a verification system

[alpine furnace]

Just curious, what provider is this exactly?

[stiff anvil]

I never used repl.it

[slate swan]

That's a pretty terrible solution.

[stiff anvil]

Plox Host

[upbeat vigil]

I see

[slate swan]

@stiff anvil You should run each process as a daemon with a process manager, try out pm2

[alpine furnace]

Oh, I see, I recently found a deal for a 90c per month 768mb vps but you have to pay yearly

Infinitely better than random services

And what's up @slate swan

[stiff anvil]

add a requirements.txt to your host, And put

disocrd
discord.py

[slate swan]

Why both discord and discord.py?

[stiff anvil]

idk, I just do it everytime

[slate swan]

They're the same thing..

[final iron]

Can you make requests with the python bot?

[stiff anvil]

yeah, I just do it

[slate swan]

try going into packages, search for discord.py and add it

[slate swan]

No

[stiff anvil]

Yeah, this works too

[slate swan]

Yes, you can use aiohttp (this is already installed if you're using discord.py or a fork)

or really any asynchronous library of your choice

[final iron]

With the bot

[stiff anvil]

?

[slate swan]

What do you mean "with the bot"?

[slate swan]

They are taking about @unkempt canyon

Oh

My bad

[final iron]

I don't have access to my computer and I'm too lazy to make a repl.it account

[slate swan]

Don't you guys add Jishaku to your bots

[final iron]

I don't develop bots anymore

[slate swan]

ah

I don't understand people that use Jishaku, just code your own Cog

[stiff anvil]

How do I print {client} is now online? So it shows the bot's name

[final iron]

Has a ton of useful features apparently

[slate swan]

client.user.name (might also want to include client.user.discriminator)

use on_ready , and client.user.name would be the username

[stiff anvil]

ty :)

[slate swan]

Pep nightmare

[alpine furnace]

🤷‍♂️ That's not really the issue here, it's that whatever python-template is, pip has fucked it over as usual

[final iron]

I'll verify if mee6's endpoints actually have a verification system tomorrow

[slate swan]

They do

[final iron]

You tested it?

[slate swan]

It's not even using pip

I checked, you need some form of authentication (Probably a session cookie)

That's poetry

[alpine furnace]

Well, shit

I usually just fork it if it's on github, change the dependencies and then pull from that

[stiff anvil]

@upbeat vigil is it working?

[final iron]

So do all the wrappers just not work?

[slate swan]

Probably not anymore, though that's just from what I know.

[slate swan]

Custom evals , debugging, the eval hides your token automatically, helpful with dealing with cogs, terminal Commands, source command and much, which would be quite hard for a beginner to work with

[stiff anvil]

Any challengers?

[slate swan]

What is a beginner doing trying to create discord bots lmao

[stiff anvil]

that's 0.00003 seconds

[slate swan]

Literally all of that is simple Python.

[slate swan]

Multiply it with with 1000 and it's your ping

[alpine furnace]

Discord.py, right?

[stiff anvil]

Yeah, I already got it ty

[alpine furnace]

str(client.user) is a shortcut for client.user.name + client.user.discriminator

[stiff anvil]

Pings are measured in milliseconds tho

[slate swan]

No, the library returns them to you in seconds

[stiff anvil]

@client.command()
async def ping(ctx):
    await ctx.send(f'Pong! I response in {round(client.latency, 2)} milliseconds!')
    

So this whole time I've been thinking I was cool?

fuck man

[alpine furnace]

[stiff anvil]

:"(

?take_an_easy_way_out << GTA

[slate swan]

What do you consider yourself to be?

[alpine furnace]

Hey, 30ms ping isn't bad either way

[stiff anvil]

yeah, I know lol

[slate swan]

True,on replit

[stiff anvil]

!ping

[unkempt canyon]

You are not allowed to use that command here. Please use the #bot-commands channel instead.

[slate swan]

An idiot

But not a Python beginner, for sure.

Um

[stiff anvil]

That's sad

[slate swan]

I didn't mean as a python developer, someone who just began with discord.py library

[alpine furnace]

Come on, when you waste hours upon hours on Discord every day, 100ms isn't much

[stiff anvil]

30ms is cooler tho :)

[slate swan]

Replit is bad lol

very weak machines

[stiff anvil]

It's free, That's why...

[alpine furnace]

I mean, they're on datacenters, so their networking is very strong either way

[slate swan]

As for the python bot . The bot is already dealing with like 2-3 eval and more than 10 commands per second in a server with 315k members, so more than the latency things like cache and memory matters

[stiff anvil]

!eval

[unkempt canyon]

Command Help

!eval [code]
Can also use: e

*Run Python code and get the results.

This command supports multiple lines of code, including code wrapped inside a formatted code block. Code can be re-evaluated by editing the original message within 10 seconds and clicking the reaction that subsequently appears.

We've done our best to make this sandboxed, but do let us know if you manage to find an issue with it!*

[stiff anvil]

!evel print("I'm gae")

?

[slate swan]

evel huh?

[stiff anvil]

print gay

!evel print("Im gae")

!eval print("Im gae")

[unkempt canyon]

@stiff anvil :white_check_mark: Your eval job has completed with return code 0.

Im gae

[slate swan]

eval

[stiff anvil]

oh

i'm blind, It's okay

[slate swan]

A custom eval is as simple as doing eval() on some greedy string command argument with a bit of magic using the io module to capture stdout
Eval hiding your token automatically... I mean just use ''.replace(bot.http.token, '') and that's good enough.
Terminal commands.. Just use subprocess.run()
Source command is simple too, just use inspect.getsourcelines() and then create a link to GitHub page with line highlighting

[slate swan]

I've used it for a while and know some stuff, but I'll still get things wrong. When I'm unsure about something, I just read up on it again and keep my mouth shut at the same time to avoid giving bad info.

[hasty axle]

hey guys so i want to make a command that takes the args in replies. Whenever someone calls the command the bot says smth and whatever the person says next is taken as an arg. Any idea how that can be done?

[calm temple]

even im trying to understand that

[slate swan]

Not sure why you would want to do that

!d discord.Client.wait_for

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Client.wait\_for

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

Waits for a WebSocket event to be dispatched.

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

The `timeout` parameter is passed onto [`asyncio.wait_for()`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/asyncio-task.html#asyncio.wait_for "(in Python v3.9)"). By default, it does not timeout. Note that this does propagate the [`asyncio.TimeoutError`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/asyncio-exceptions.html#asyncio.TimeoutError "(in Python v3.9)") for you in case of timeout and is provided for ease of use.

In case the event returns multiple arguments, a [`tuple`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/stdtypes.html#tuple "(in Python v3.9)") containing those arguments is returned instead. Please check the [documentation](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/api.html#discord-api-events) for a list of events and their parameters.

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

[slate swan]

use this to wait for a message

[stiff anvil]

How can I make an uptime command

I searched google and none of them work

[vocal snow]

store the time when you login, subtract it from when the command is invoked

you can use time.time/perf_counter if you just want it in seconds, otherwise check out the datetime package

[stiff anvil]

ty

[slate swan]

what option type i should use here?

[stiff anvil]

Are you here?

@client.command()
async def uptime(ctx):
    uptime = starttime - datetime.datetime.now()
    await ctx.send(uptime)

@client.event
async def on_ready():
    global starttime
    starttime = datetime.datetime.now()

discord.ext.commands.errors.CommandInvokeError: Command raised an exception: NameError: name 'starttime' is not defined

I get this error

@vocal snow

[vocal snow]

make it an attribute of client instead; ```py

client.starttime = ...

[stiff anvil]

and?

[vocal snow]

?

and use it?

[stiff anvil]

okay wait

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/home/container/.local/lib/python3.9/site-packages/discord/ext/commands/core.py", line 85, in wrapped
    ret = await coro(*args, **kwargs)
  File "/home/container/setup.py", line 29, in uptime
    uptime = starttime - datetime.datetime.now()
NameError: name 'starttime' is not defined

should I add client.starttime here too?

@vocal snow

'Bot' object has no attribute 'starttime'

urgh

[vocal snow]

that means that the command is being invoked before the on_ready callback

[stiff anvil]

How do I fix it?

[vocal snow]

set client.starttime somewhere else i guess

[stiff anvil]

okay...

[royal oar]

Can Someone pls help me? When i use this code here right it shows the status of those using spotify what song and what not but the code is only working for certain people and not all people when they are not using spotify the only to work was the try and except. But that doesnt work for everyone.

    @commands.command()
    async def spotify(self, ctx, user:nextcord.Member = None):
        try:
            if user == None:
                user = ctx.author
                pass
            if user.activities:
                for activity in user.activities:
                    if isinstance(activity, Spotify):
                        embed = nextcord.Embed(title = f"{user.name}'s Spotify", description = "Listening to {}".format(activity.title), color = 0xC902FF)
                        embed.set_thumbnail(url=activity.album_cover_url)
                        embed.add_field(name="Artist", value=activity.artist)
                        embed.add_field(name="Album", value=activity.album)
                        embed.set_footer(text="Song started at {}".format(activity.created_at.strftime("%H:%M")))
                        await ctx.send(embed=embed)
                        return
                    if user.activity is not Spotify:
                        await ctx.send("Hello")
                    if user.mention.activity is not Spotify:
                        await ctx.send("Hello")
        except:
            em = nextcord.Embed(title = f"{user.name} isnt using spotify thou?", description = "They are currently using a different application <3", color = 0xC902FF)
            await ctx.send(embed=em)
            return

It may look like its not indented properly but it is.
the suppose output is meant to be:
https://gyazo.com/d75959b7de37a17383170eee27569798

[slate swan]

Make sure you have presence intents

I changed the hex color to an int but it didnt work, i dont know y

oh , that just doesn't work as expected

[royal oar]

It has all intents enabled

[slate swan]

Utilise the any function to check if the user has a Spotify activity using instance

That would be faster, and easier to handle

[boreal ravine]

Copied code

[slate swan]

Instead of a try/expect

[royal oar]

ill try it

[vivid marsh]

@commands.command(aliases=['Ban'])
    @commands.has_permissions(ban_members=True, administrator=True)
    async def ban(self, ctx, member: discord.Member, *, reason=None):
        if reason==None:
            reason="No reason provided"
        await ctx.guild.ban(member)
        await ctx.send(f'{member.mention} has been Banned from the server for: {reason}')
        if self.user.dm_channel == None:
            await self.user.create_dm()
            await self.user.dm_channel.send(
            content=f"You have been banned from {ctx.guild} by {ctx.message.author}\nReason: {reason} ")```

For some reason it’s not dming the user when they are banned am I missing something?

[slate swan]

Nope, just the bot doesnt have mutual servers with the user no more and maybe their dms are closed

Send the message first

Then ban the user

[vivid marsh]

I was using my other acc and it’s in another server with the bot

[vivid marsh]

I want the bot to dm the user lol

[slate swan]

What's the error

Ah

[slate swan]

Do that b4 await ctx.guild.ban

Move your last sentence outside the if

And you an just await user.send

[slate swan]

If the user's dms are closed it will return an error

Also, it's not self.user

[slate swan]

True

[vivid marsh]

I’m In cogs

Is it not correct with self?

[slate swan]

No

[vivid marsh]

If I keep it as just user I get the user is not defined so would it be ctx.user?

[slate swan]

Why do you use user when in the function you have a member?

[vivid marsh]

Would it work if member i thought it would be like the member who made the action? And the user affected

I got it fixed thanks

[small igloo]

ok, is there any way to make my bot shows all the commands cooldown at once

[heavy harbor]

Guys I need

Help

Can you tell the basic code for a discord bot

Pls

[small igloo]

what

[heavy harbor]

I just started coding a discord bot

so I need help

[small igloo]

use ur search skill, too much type hint not gud

[heavy harbor]

Oh ok

I'm actually new to coding discord bots

[small igloo]

me 2 tbh xd

[heavy harbor]

So I want the basic code to make it coem

Online

[small igloo]

1st tip: dont use replit

[heavy harbor]

Idk what's that

[small igloo]

ok, good

better not know

[heavy harbor]

Why

[small igloo]

1. it suck
2. fking visible to everyone with ur link

[heavy harbor]

Oh ok

Just tell the basic code please

[umbral night]

is it possible to make a bot add a slowmode to a channel that is less than 5 seconds?

or is 5 seconds the lowest.

[small igloo]

ok'

[small igloo]

import discord
from discord.ext import commands
bot = commands.Bot(command_prefix="prefix", help_command=None, case_insensitive=True)
@bot.command()
async def ping(ctx):
await ctx.send("pong")
bot.run("token")

[heavy harbor]

Oh ok thanks

[small igloo]

ok, np

[placid skiff]

bro that code is written in the documentation of the package that you are using...

[small igloo]

1 sec

[placid skiff]

if you go to the github of the package you can find a lot of examples

[small igloo]

?

[placid skiff]

you want to show all the commands that has a cooldown?

[small igloo]

no, i mean like show all comands cooldown

[placid skiff]

all the commands that are in cooldown?

[small igloo]

yes, and their own cooldown timer

[placid skiff]

mhh

slash commands or normal commands?

[small igloo]

normal

[placid skiff]

ok

[rancid stump]

how do i send a embedd text using discord bot ???

like text with image ?

[placid skiff]

ok so

[small igloo]

[umbral night]

ty

[small igloo]

and 3 sec also exist

[small igloo]

so?

[placid skiff]

you have to get the list of your commands doing bot.commands)

[umbral night]

not for me?

but i'd like to set it to one second

just to make sure noone can spam

[small igloo]

ok

[small igloo]

mmm, ok?

[rancid stump]

didn't understand

[placid skiff]

commands has a parameter to check if a command has a cooldown, which is command.cooldown_after_parsing

[small igloo]

ooh i see

[placid skiff]

then you can use the method get_cooldown_retry_after which requires the context as argument to get the time remaining before the command can be invoked again

[small igloo]

ok :V

and in code use?

[placid skiff]

well there are many, you want to make something like an help menu?

[small igloo]

mmm, more likely into command cooldown list

[placid skiff]

then you can try something like this:

async def get_cooldown(ctx: Context):
  message = ""
  for command in bot.commands:
    if command.cooldown_after_parsing:
      message += f"times before invoking {command.name}: {command.get_cooldown_retry_after()}\n"
  await ctx.send(message)

get_cooldown_retry_after return a float, probably is the time remains in seconds

and maybe you have to check if that value is greater than 0 too before adding it to the message

[small igloo]

ok, wait

[small igloo]

@bot.command()
async def get_cooldown(ctx):
    message = ""
    for command in bot.commands:
        if command.cooldown_after_parsing:
            message += f"times before invoking {command.name}: {command.get_cooldown_retry_after()}\n"
    await ctx.send(message)```400 Bad Request (error code: 50006): Cannot send an empty message

[placid skiff]

probably no commands are in cooldown

[small igloo]

litteraly a command in cooldown for 10 minutes ;-;

[maiden fable]

Why doing this

Just do if command.get_cooldown_retry_after():

[small igloo]

doing what

[placid skiff]

it's the same thing, btw it founds no commands on cooldown

[small igloo]

HTTPException: 400 Bad Request (error code: 50006): Cannot send an empty message

[placid skiff]

What bucket type has the cooldown?

[small igloo]

wut

[placid skiff]

copy the @vale junco decorator function

[small igloo]

lol @vale junco

[small igloo]

this ig?

@commands.cooldown(1, 600, commands.BucketType.user)```

[placid skiff]

lol it is written too, try to set it to None

[small igloo]

the what

[umbral night]

u know how?

[small igloo]

same way as u set the 5sec cooldown

[umbral night]

no?

it doesnt have an option for 1 second.

[small igloo]

then 3 sec

[placid skiff]

the bucket type

[umbral night]

doesnt have that either

[small igloo]

oh ok, command.BucketType.None?

[small igloo]

b r u h

[umbral night]

i thought u knew what u were doing

[placid skiff]

Nope, BucketType.default

[small igloo]

oh ok

[small igloo]

same thing

[placid skiff]

wait you are not sending the ctx as the argument of the get_cooldown_retry_after

i even said to you that it needs the context as argument

[small igloo]

???

[placid skiff]

do you know what the context is?

[small igloo]

yes ig?

(dat ctx : Context maybe?)

[placid skiff]

yes, get_cooldown_retry_after needs it as argument

[small igloo]

anger

[placid skiff]

you have to import context

D_D

[small igloo]

b r u h, ok

[small igloo]

from where :V

[placid skiff]

it is in the commands folder, so..?

[small igloo]

oh, from discord.ext.commands import context?

[placid skiff]

yup

with C capital

[small igloo]

ok :V

[small igloo]

i hate liiiife
HTTPException: 400 Bad Request (error code: 50006): Cannot send an empty message

[placid skiff]

you have to PASS the CONTEXT in the get_cooldown_retry_after() method

[small igloo]

ctx or Context

[placid skiff]

ctx is your context .-.

[small igloo]

oh ok

[small igloo]

@bot.command()
async def get_cooldown(ctx : Context):
    message = ""
    for command in bot.commands:
        if command.cooldown_after_parsing:
            message += f"times before invoking {command.name}: {command.get_cooldown_retry_after(ctx)}\n"
    await ctx.send(message)```

still cant send empty message error and ukr that i alr use dat farm command

[placid skiff]

what?

[small igloo]

still HTTPException: 400 Bad Request (error code: 50006): Cannot send an empty message error

[placid skiff]

print bot.commands in the console

[small igloo]

ok wait

[small igloo]

<bound method GroupMixin.command of <discord.ext.commands.bot.Bot object at 0x00000246BAB68D30>>

[placid skiff]

send me where you declared the bot

[small igloo]

bot = commands.Bot(command_prefix=["sal! ", "Sal! ", "SAL! "], help_command=None, case_insensitive=True)

[placid skiff]

and bot.commands gave this?

[small igloo]

yep ;-;

[small igloo]

oh, no "s"

[placid skiff]

...

[unkempt canyon]

Hey @small igloo!

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

[small igloo]

bruh

[small igloo]

https://paste.pythondiscord.com/yequripevi

[honest vessel]

@small igloodont u want is_on_cooldown?

[small igloo]

what?

[honest vessel]

you gonna check if you have any cooldowns right?

[small igloo]

send a list of command's cooldowns

[honest vessel]

oh not the actual users cooldown

[small igloo]

yep

[placid skiff]

my vpn doesn't let me join the page

[small igloo]

then turn it off :D

[placid skiff]

i need it to work 😄

[supple thorn]

Why

[small igloo]

ok, just examples
{<discord.ext.commands.core.Command object at 0x000001EC3CFA7820>, <discord.ext.commands.core.Command object at 0x000001EC3A918070>}

[small igloo]

helo

[small igloo]

most of VPN users wont admit what their true intention of using VPN...

[heavy folio]

list comprehension

[placid skiff]

cuz to join some pages of the docs of my company i need the company vpn and my credentials

[heavy folio]

[c.name for c in bot.commands] or whatever attribute you wanna use @small igloo

[placid skiff]

that should work

[honest vessel]

@small iglooi can tell your code dosnt show anything with cooldowns

[small igloo]

ok

[honest vessel]

uptime #commandname
False #bool-> command.cooldown_after_parsing
0.0 #how much time till command can be used again
this is what you checking

[heavy folio]

i dont think you can get the cooldown of a command

[honest vessel]

    async def testing(self, ctx):
        for command in self.bot.commands:
            print(command)
            print(command.cooldown_after_parsing)
            print(command.get_cooldown_retry_after(ctx))```

[quasi stag]

my bot has 2 commands, createbackup and applybackup, createbackup basically gets every channel and role and compiles them into a single file. and applybackup it takes the file the user uploaded and reads it. now my problem is to convert my key "type" thats a string into a channeltype object. how do i do that

[honest vessel]

ye cant find anything about it either

[honest vessel]

why not use build in discord templates?

[heavy folio]

mhm

[quasi stag]

irrelevant

[hoary cargo]

[honest vessel]

well to make string to channelobject should be selfdescribed

[quasi stag]

theres channel.type.name

[honest vessel]

thats just a string of the channels name

[quasi stag]

smartass

[honest vessel]

but you said u didnt want strings and actual objects

[placid skiff]

when you need to convert a discord object from a raw data type (python builtin types) then the best way is to use the id of the object

[quasi stag]

yes?

[honest vessel]

he dont even need to do that

[quasi stag]

and if that object gets deleted?

[placid skiff]

it returns None

cuz the bot can't find it

[honest vessel]

you can just get the channelobjects from the guild

[quasi stag]

congrats, purpose of backup destroyed

[placid skiff]

didn't know that you are makin a backup .-.

[honest vessel]

show how far you came with your backup functin

[quasi stag]

maybe try reading the message i sent?

[placid skiff]

btw you can't get the istance of an object which doesn't exists anymore

you have to recreate that object from the data that you have

[honest vessel]

yeah u will need to save permissions n all, and then create new channel with them permissions

[rain olive]

what?

[honest vessel]

you cant just copy objects

[placid skiff]

when they doesn't exists .-.

[rain olive]

thats the name of the type of channel

[quasi stag]

thats what im trying :|

[placid skiff]

then what is your problem? D_D

[unkempt canyon]

Hey @quasi stag!

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

[quasi stag]

br

[honest vessel]

... its still a string

[quasi stag]

https://paste.pythondiscord.com/leruxacoko

[placid skiff]

i can't open paste bin .-.

[heavy harbor]

I need help again

[quasi stag]

okay if for example chocolate cake and strawberry cake are both cakes, and you think both of them has the the same flavor

[heavy harbor]

Why am I getting this error

[quasi stag]

its discord.Client()

[heavy harbor]

Oh ok

It's case sensitive

?

[quasi stag]

yes

[placid skiff]

of course .-.

[heavy harbor]

Oh ok thanks guys

[placid skiff]

everything you code is case sensitive

[quasi stag]

please learn that functions like abc() and Abc() are not the same

[heavy harbor]

Oh ok

[north whale]

didn't I recommend getattr

[quasi stag]

and what does that return?

[north whale]

the attribute you requested

[quasi stag]

exactly

[honest vessel]

@quasi stagchannel.type.name so what u want? this e.q will be "text" if a simple textchannel etc

[quasi stag]

i would have to do getattr(discord.channeltype, "news") == discord.channeltype.news like 8 times

[north whale]

you use it to convert the string back into a channel type

then compare that channel type to the other channel types

[quasi stag]

and?

[north whale]

or just use the string and don't bother with channel types

[quasi stag]

how do i create a channel using a channeltype argument

[north whale]

you can't

do you have a different idea

[quasi stag]

you cant just do await ctx.create.channeltype.channel

[honest vessel]

you can make your own dict

[quasi stag]

what?

[north whale]

I also recommended this earlier

[placid skiff]

he can't get an attribute that doesn't exists, doesn't change nothing .-.

[honest vessel]

t = {"text": Guild.create_text_channel()} etc maybe

[north whale]

who said it doesn't exist

[honest vessel]

something that aproach

[placid skiff]

he is makin a backup command

[north whale]

yeah

pretty sure ChannelType has the text attribute no matter what

[quasi stag]

hm wait how do you run the function

[placid skiff]

yes but he will not have the argument of that attrivute

[north whale]

are you high

[quasi stag]

[north whale]

Index the dict and call it normally

t[thing](...)

[placid skiff]

bro here, if "news" doesn't exists getattr returns None

[quasi stag]

cool

bot.channels = {
    "text": 
}

[north whale]

your dict would look something like

{
    "text": guild.create_text_channel,
    "voice": guild.create_voice_channel,
    ...
}

[quasi stag]

already stuck

how do i get the guild bro

[north whale]

recreate the dict on each command

[honest vessel]

t = {"text": ctx.guild.create_text_channel, "voice": ctx.guild.create_voice_channel}
test = "voice"
await t[test](name="test")
``` something like this

[quasi stag]

breh

[north whale]

and access guild from the context

[quasi stag]

okay ill try

[heavy harbor]

So uh is it problem with a script that I'm facing a issue of my code not running

[north whale]

you leaked your token

reset it

[quasi stag]

lmao

youre

[honest vessel]

free token!

[quasi stag]

coding in mobile!??!!?

[north whale]

anyways client.run shouldn't be indented

[quasi stag]

yoo it worked!

thanks guys

[slate swan]

it works for now
Maybe you wont see your server in 5 minutes

:)

[placid skiff]

lol

[quasi stag]

why tho

[north whale]

I would watch ratelimits though

large amount of channels might not end well with discord

[quasi stag]

why would i try to ratelimit?

oh

[honest vessel]

np

[quasi stag]

where?

[north whale]

that was a different person

[slate swan]

oh lol

nvm

[quasi stag]

shes dumb

[slate swan]

indeed

[north whale]

the whole last 3 characters are hidden

[honest vessel]

#saved

[slate swan]

lol

[north whale]

@heavy harbor

wake up

[quasi stag]

okay i just realized i would need to place the channels in the correct categories and permissions

[slate swan]

Which Basically are just a permutation of around 40 characters

[quasi stag]

ill work in this later

[north whale]

could brute force it in a few seconds probably

[quasi stag]

you didnt mention how slow bots logging in

[north whale]

doesn't take that long to test a bot token

[honest vessel]

when you invite bot with permission code like 8 for admin or what it is but lets say u skip "can cfreate channels" can u edit permissions inside server for bot so that he can create_channels?

[quasi stag]

i would say like 20 channels

[honest vessel]

or u need to reinvite bot with correct permissions

[quasi stag]

admin overrides every permission

[north whale]

yeah just find the bot's role and smack the permission toggle

[honest vessel]

i have given bot all rights still cant create a channel

permissions missing

[north whale]

give it administrator permissions and see what happens

[quasi stag]

give it manage channels

[honest vessel]

it has all i just said 😄

[quasi stag]

discord issue

[north whale]

if it still doesn't work it might be something to do with creating permission overwrites for a higher role

[honest vessel]

wait

i think i looked at wrong bot

too early in morning 😄 my bad ignore me

[north whale]

this apparently works

[quasi stag]

will my memory give up if i cache it with like

a thousand channels

[slate swan]

any idea abt this error? py Traceback (most recent call last): File "C:\Users\Saad\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python310\lib\site-packages\discord\ext\commands\bot.py", line 939, in invoke await ctx.command.invoke(ctx) File "C:\Users\Saad\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python310\lib\site-packages\discord\ext\commands\core.py", line 863, in invoke await injected(*ctx.args, **ctx.kwargs) File "C:\Users\Saad\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python310\lib\site-packages\discord\ext\commands\core.py", line 94, in wrapped raise CommandInvokeError(exc) from exc discord.ext.commands.errors.CommandInvokeError: Command raised an exception: HTTPException: 400 Bad Request (error code: 50035): Invalid Form Body In embed.fields.1.value: Must be 1024 or fewer in length.

[honest vessel]

In embed.fields.1.value: Must be 1024 or fewer in length.

[maiden fable]

The value of the second field

It's longer than 1024 chars

[slate swan]

oh

ty

[honest vessel]

selfexplained errors 🙂

[slate swan]

im slow so :P

[honest vessel]

read errors from below to top ^^

[slate swan]

tnx for the advice ^^

[honest vessel]

me2 i need cofee but too lazy to make xD

@slate swan i want an advanced bot 😛

[slate swan]

btw does wait_for("message") needs a message intent or nah

[honest vessel]

can be a reaction

[slate swan]

[honest vessel]

docs wait_for(event, *, check=None, timeout=None

[slate swan]

but does it need message intent?

the "message" event

[honest vessel]

it can be a reaction i said 😄

[slate swan]

wym by that 🦥

[honest vessel]

@client.event
async def on_message(message):
    if message.content.startswith('$thumb'):
        channel = message.channel
        await channel.send('Send me that 👍 reaction, mate')

        def check(reaction, user):
            return user == message.author and str(reaction.emoji) == '👍'

        try:
            reaction, user = await client.wait_for('reaction_add', timeout=60.0, check=check)
        except asyncio.TimeoutError:
            await channel.send('👎')
        else:
            await channel.send('👍')

[slate swan]

no like im talking abt the wait_for on a command

nvm imma just try it without the message intent

[honest vessel]

yes

you can have it in a command

[slate swan]

ik but the question is

does it require the message intent?

[honest vessel]

no

[visual island]

message content intents, no

[slate swan]

alr tnx alot

[honest vessel]

reaction, user = await client.wait_for('reaction_add', timeout=60.0, check=check)

as u see here no message needed

[slate swan]

idk wut u talking abt

im lost-

[honest vessel]

ok np

[hasty axle]

can someone tell me how i can get member id using discord.py??

[maiden fable]

!d discord.Member.id

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Member.id

property id```
Equivalent to [`User.id`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/api.html#discord.User.id "discord.User.id")

[boreal ravine]

https://github.com/sifte/bonbons rate code

[maiden fable]

will I get a cookie? Sure!

[boreal ravine]

God willing

[heavy folio]

why mongo tho, asqlite/asyncpg is better for bots

[hoary cargo]

Kinda messy imo

[strong vessel]

do discord bot users get banned easily? like i'm wondering what is the risk involved of making a bot and then getting banned from discord for example because of trolls. do i have to make it so the user that supports the bot is separate so that the bot owner is a secret just to avoid getting banned or something like that?

[honest vessel]

@boreal ravine for ext in os.listdir("./cogs"): self.load_extension(f"cogs.{ext.replace('.py', '')}")

wat if a file gets there that has maybe .txt

[strong vessel]

i don't want to become like this bot https://www.reddit.com/r/discordapp/comments/lgozmy/eli_bot/

[honest vessel]

n u dont check if even failed or successed load cog

@strong vessel code ur bot well

n use alot of decorations n cooldowns

[strong vessel]

the bot owner got perm banned, so the bot died forever

nvm i guess its unavoidable

[boreal ravine]

nope

[boreal ravine]

why would I need that?

[boreal ravine]

I needed a quick and easy database to use

[slim ibex]

sqlite

[boreal ravine]

🤷‍♀️

[slim ibex]

lmao i just got here

idk what happened before🗿

[slate swan]

anyhelp #databases

[heavy folio]

ah

[tacit token]

guys mongodb vs json?

[slim ibex]

MongoDB any fucking day

Pls don’t use json as a database

[tacit token]

ok but i how to use it

[slim ibex]

?

[tacit token]

I need someone to show me how to handle channels and prefixes because it went in json, but I want to switch to a regular database.

[slim ibex]

use SQLite because Mongo is relatively hard

[heavy folio]

asqlite/asyncpg

please, dont use json at all

[slim ibex]

^

unless you are serializing API data

[heavy folio]

mongo is not recommended for discord bots

[tacit token]

And someone can help me? not here, but privately with sqlite

[slim ibex]

^

[tacit token]

I want to save channels and prefixes in it.

[vocal snow]

that doesn't make sense lol

[tacit token]

but i need normal database

[shut axle]

What should I type in my code: client.run(???)
If I saved my token in Heroku as TOKEN. ??????????????

[tacit token]

someone help me switch to sqlite? I still have one of these commands and a prefix.

[slim ibex]

don’t use heroku for discord bots

[shut axle]

Why?

[slim ibex]

it’s made for web services

[shut axle]

But can you help me?

[slim ibex]

it’s probably in your environment variables somewhere

[shut axle]

I got you, but I wanna know what should I type in client.run. Because I saved my token as TOKEN

[slim ibex]

os.getenv(“TOKEN”)?

[tacit token]

so anybody? everybody say use sqllite but if i try nobody help

[native wedge]

If you want help with SQLite #databases

[shut axle]

Thanks!

[tacit token]

thanks Ben

[slim ibex]

you have to use the sqlite3 module or aiosqlite

[tacit token]

I would like my bot (about 10,000) on a lot of servers which database do you recommend? report system & log system & welcomerre should be the database.

[slim ibex]

SQLite can hold a lot so you should be fine

but you prolly shouldn’t have a table for each guild

[tacit token]

ok thanks

[honest vessel]

@strong vesseland uhm yeah owner of bot got permbanned not the bot itself

he probally did something against ToS and stupid he was used bot owner account

[jovial cave]

is there something wrong with my code? help me?

[slim ibex]

uhh the fuck

why are you doing everything in on_ready

[fresh iron]

is user.guilds a thing

[slim ibex]

And that’s not how if name main is used

[jovial cave]

ops my bot token

[slim ibex]

yeah LMAO

[native wedge]

Put it atleast in an ENV or something

[fresh iron]

is this a valid thing

[jovial cave]

yes so how do i fix it

[fresh iron]

user.guilds

[slim ibex]

bot.guilds

!d discord.ext.commands.Bot.guilds

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ext.commands.Bot.guilds

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

[slim ibex]

but user does have a mutual_guilds property

!d discord.User.mutual_guilds

[unkempt canyon]

discord.User.mutual\_guilds

property mutual_guilds: List[Guild]```
The guilds that the user shares with the client.

Note

This will only return mutual guilds within the client’s internal cache.

New in version 1.7.

[jovial cave]

like this or what?

sorry if i'm stupid

[slim ibex]

That wasn’t for you…

He was asking a question about his code

[jovial cave]

ohhh sorry, means how do I fix it

don't mix the code?

[slim ibex]

!d discord.Client.event

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Client.event

@event```
A decorator that registers an event to listen to.

You can find more info about the events on the [documentation below](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/api.html#discord-api-events).

The events must be a [coroutine](https://docs.python.org/3/library/asyncio-task.html#coroutine "(in Python v3.9)"), if not, [`TypeError`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/exceptions.html#TypeError "(in Python v3.9)") is raised.

Example

```py
@client.event
async def on_ready():
    print('Ready!')

[slate swan]

How do I listen for commands in DMs

[slim ibex]

wdym listen for

Commands should work in dms unless they have a @guild_only() decorator

[fresh iron]

i don't get it

my code is literally the example and it still gives the same error

[boreal ravine]

read your code

[slim ibex]

show the code

[boreal ravine]

and read what the command says

[boreal ravine]

god

[slim ibex]

oh shit bro

oh shitty shit

[stone beacon]

🤣 lmao

Use discord.ext.commands.Bot m8

[slim ibex]

first off, use commands.Bot not client

!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.

there are some security measures you can take
So even if you get perma banned you still have acces to the bot

@slim ibex Finally i can

[silent ermine]

Why does this happen?

I dont even use abc or what ever it is

[slim ibex]

abstract base class

some of the classes derive from abs

!d discord.abc.User

[unkempt canyon]

discord.abc.User

class discord.abc.User```
An ABC that details the common operations on a Discord user.

The following implement this ABC:

• [`User`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/api.html#discord.User "discord.User")

• [`ClientUser`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/api.html#discord.ClientUser "discord.ClientUser")

• [`Member`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/api.html#discord.Member "discord.Member")...

[silent ermine]

I’m confused what

[slim ibex]

doesn’t matter, what’s the code that raises it

ABCs are base classes that define members that must be implemented by classes that derive from it

[slate swan]

That's only because of sharding, which big bots need to have. And yea when the bot got removed from discord it stopped working in all the servers.

[maiden fable]

!d exit

[unkempt canyon]

exit

quit(code=None)``````py

exit(code=None)```
Objects that when printed, print a message like “Use quit() or Ctrl-D (i.e. EOF) to exit”, and when called, raise [`SystemExit`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/exceptions.html#SystemExit "SystemExit") with the specified exit code.

[maiden fable]

Sorry not sorry

[silent ermine]

but my code exits

[slim ibex]

[maiden fable]

Hm?

[pliant gulch]

It's seems you have done pip install typing or something

Uninstall it and it should be fine?

[maiden fable]

Wait what?

[jagged root]

How can i get user that was mentioned in a embed

[maiden fable]

U forgot to call it

[pliant gulch]

This is just here for versions of python that do not have typing builtin

[maiden fable]

It's a method

[pliant gulch]

Same with asyncio

[pliant gulch]

!pip asyncio

[unkempt canyon]

Bruhhh

Just call that. It's a method

[manic wing]

bro

literally tells you what to do in the error

[maiden fable]

I'm out

[manic wing]

it could not be more clear

[jagged root]

How can i get user that was mentioned in a embed please help

[manic wing]

do you want them to stick a massive youtube tutorial saying exactly what to do?

[slim ibex]

bro

[manic wing]

its a bit complicated

[slim ibex]

@slate swan the error tells you to add await

[maiden fable]

!d discord.Message.embeds

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Message.embeds

A list of embeds the message has.

[maiden fable]

!d discord.Embed.description

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Embed.description

The description of the embed. This can be set during initialisation.

[maiden fable]

And then, u gotta use regex or smth

[manic wing]

you would have to check each part of the embed

[jagged root]

hm

[slate swan]

😔 you can just if user.mention in description

[jagged root]

i mean

i just want to get user that was mentioned on a command

[maiden fable]

Sarthak 👀

[jagged root]

and then put it ona embed

[slate swan]

dont you use command parameters?

[manic wing]

there are 2 ways to ping

[slate swan]

yo, rare sight

[slate swan]

do you mean the !?

[manic wing]

mhm

[slate swan]

danny is smart, must say https://github.com/Rapptz/discord.py/blob/45d498c1b76deaf3b394d17ccf56112fa691d160/discord/member.py#L489-L494

[manic wing]

but

what if the user has a nick and they use the non-nick version to mention

[slate swan]

the api always returns the correct mention type, i moment

[fresh iron]

so im trying to list a specific guild members but idk how to do that properly

[buoyant quail]

indentation...

[manic wing]

[slim ibex]

why in on connect?

[manic wing]

on_connect doesnt pass guild

[slim ibex]

on connect takes in reconnect param

[manic wing]

idk wtf you're trying to conjure

[slim ibex]

^ some wizardry shit

[manic wing]

!d discord.on_connect

[unkempt canyon]

discord.on\_connect

discord.on_connect()```
Called when the client has successfully connected to Discord. This is not the same as the client being fully prepared, see [`on_ready()`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/api.html#discord.on_ready "discord.on_ready") for that.

The warnings on [`on_ready()`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/api.html#discord.on_ready "discord.on_ready") also apply.

[manic wing]

takes nothin

[slim ibex]

oh I was thinking of just connect

[keen talon]

Avada Kedavra

[fresh iron]

there changed it to on_ready

[silent ermine]

ok

[slim ibex]

That doesn’t make any difference?

on_ready doesn’t take in anything either

!d discord.on_ready

[unkempt canyon]

discord.on\_ready

discord.on_ready()```
Called when the client is done preparing the data received from Discord. Usually after login is successful and the [`Client.guilds`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/api.html#discord.Client.guilds "discord.Client.guilds") and co. are filled up.

Warning

This function is not guaranteed to be the first event called. Likewise, this function is **not** guaranteed to only be called once. This library implements reconnection logic and thus will end up calling this event whenever a RESUME request fails.

[fresh iron]

oh

[brittle axle]

there is a difference between on_ready and on_connect. on_ready is when the bot is ready to be used. on_connect means that it is only connected to discord

[manic wing]

mm ok

[brittle axle]

your indentation sucks man

thats why it dosent work

if there are more errors please print it out

[quick gust]

!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

[brittle axle]

and there is no parameters to on_connect

[fresh iron]

i still haven't tested im just asking if im doing it properly

[quick gust]

except should be un-indented once more

[quick gust]

() in the event

[potent spear]

no, it won't work that way

[brittle axle]

there is no guild inside the brackets it is supposed to be empty

[fresh iron]

right...

[potent spear]

you can't pass a guild as argument, you'll have to pass the id or whatever and get_guild

[quick gust]

also pass ctx

discord.on_connect

[potent spear]

he also needs member intents for this

[quick gust]

yep

bro

[brittle axle]

rip my spelling

[quick gust]

..

are you trolling

[brittle axle]

no

[quick gust]

go to #bot-commands

please, its without the ()

!d discord.on_connect

[potent spear]

why would you uninstall this? also, isn't this preinstalled with python?

[unkempt canyon]

discord.on\_connect

discord.on_connect()```
Called when the client has successfully connected to Discord. This is not the same as the client being fully prepared, see [`on_ready()`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/api.html#discord.on_ready "discord.on_ready") for that.

[silent ermine]

well andy said to

just the same error keeps popping up

[slim ibex]

Andy said something about uninstalling it for an ABC callable error, but I said the same thing

[silent ermine]

So then is it ssomething i installed?

[slate swan]

its just replit being weird, it installed another library named typing and now he's unable to delete it

!pip typing

[unkempt canyon]

typing v3.10.0.0

Type Hints for Python

[slim ibex]

replit moment

[slate swan]

just try making a new repl

[silent ermine]

found where its hidden

[silent ermine]

did that 3 times

[slate swan]

e thats typing extensions and is important

[silent ermine]

imma delete this and see how it goes

[slate swan]

thats not it

nononono, discord.py library works on it

[brittle axle]

if you delete that then the whole thing wont work

[silent ermine]

oops

[manic wing]

he installed some whack 3rd party typing which fucked with some abc class

[silent ermine]

i didnt though

[naive spoke]

there is an error for this

await message.add_reaction(':thumbsup:')

it says
discord.ext.commands.errors.CommandInvokeError: Command raised an exception: HTTPException: 400 Bad Request (error code: 10014): Unknown Emoji

[silent ermine]

the fuq now everything inst running

[manic wing]

you need the unicode/emoji instance

[brittle axle]

you need to put an actual emoji

or unicode

[naive spoke]

ok

[brittle axle]

just move to something like vs code and then once everything is solved make a new repl

[silent ermine]

alright

also if i delete these, these would create back again?

[naive spoke]

unicode?

[pliant gulch]

Can you send the insides of the pyproject.toml

[brittle axle]

that will also work

[naive spoke]

what is that

[silent ermine]

alright

!code

not that uhm the thing where i can paste it

[naive spoke]

oh

nvm

[silent ermine]

!pastebin

[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.

[silent ermine]

https://paste.pythondiscord.com/ufilihiruj

[pliant gulch]

Something is wrong with your repl

People get that error by having the pypi version of typing installed

But here it says you don't have it

[silent ermine]

can i delete these: https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/343944376055103488/945332805351661588/Screen_Shot_2022-02-21_at_9.54.54_AM.png

and then run it?would it create it back?

[pliant gulch]

Sure

[silent ermine]

alright lemme try that

now the replit wont run!

[slate swan]

poetry init

in shell ,and configure it yourself

[silent ermine]

alright thank you

what does this mean btw?

[brittle axle]

@fresh iron

[slate swan]

write yes

[silent ermine]

k

yooo it works now

well runnning

bebop

[slate swan]

wait what

dont you use discord?

[silent ermine]

nope

[slim ibex]

oh no not pycord

[silent ermine]

going to pycord

[slate swan]

because in the poetry it was discord

[pliant gulch]

poetry install

[slate swan]

you have better choices tho

[silent ermine]

i like pycord though

[slim ibex]

disnake pls

[silent ermine]

no :)

[slate swan]

*someone said its cool and best

[slim ibex]

their docs are shit they kept the discord namespace for some reason

and it just makes it harder for people to transfer to it

[silent ermine]

wait i dont need to import pycord

on my code?

[slim ibex]

?

[pliant gulch]

They kept the namespace lol?

[slate swan]

no, the library takes discord's namespace

yea, that aint even optional

[slim ibex]

pycord docs have like discord.discord.ext

[pliant gulch]

This is gonna be like client vs bot all over again

[slate swan]

    console.log("Waiter Is Online, Just Checking: \n :heavy_check_mark: Means Working \n ✘ Means Not Working \n")
});```
nothing showing in terminal after this
**Making a discord bot btw** - node.js

yea, discord.Client vs discord.Bot

idky they did that

[pliant gulch]

You should ask in one of the javascript servers, this is a python server

[silent ermine]

this is python server lol ccheck out discord.js

[slate swan]

may u give link to discord.js

in dms

discord.gg/djs

[silent ermine]

alright community

i need your help, pycord or disnake

or nextcord

[slim ibex]

Disnake

[worthy helm]

No

[slate swan]

um?

[slate swan]

🏃‍♂️ im a hikari user, but yea i find disnake cool

[pliant gulch]

I like neither of the forks 👁️ 👁️

[slim ibex]

I’m a pincer watcher but a Rin lover

[silent ermine]

see discord is making me send invalid api requests

so its foquing up my bots

[pliant gulch]

Must be becus of collectors 😼

[silent ermine]

yep thank you

[slim ibex]

^ we can’t see the line of code where the error was raised

[supple crescent]

[slim ibex]

Yes

[supple crescent]

oh

idk my code isnt 94 lines

idk whats triggering it

but its smthn in here

bucause this error comes up when i use the !contact
