[cold sonnet]

I'm starting to think he's not trolling

[slate swan]

[south brook]

look, this one is bigger

[slate swan]

the id is wrong

since it returns None

[south brook]

Now it returns this

so it has an channel

and it has the right name

@slate swan

ow sorry

[cold sonnet]

we got no code

[south brook]

[cold sonnet]

please send it again then

[south brook]

it isnt a nuker

i swear

[slate swan]

[south brook]

?

ye true

[cold sonnet]

[slate swan]

[weary birch]

hey i got question how can i make smth like this? did research but its no help

how i add it, other i know iguess

[cold sonnet]

just make a title and description with that text

[south brook]

can you help further

[cold sonnet]

add fields

!d discord.Embed.add_field

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Embed.add\_field

add_field(*, name, value, inline=True)```
Adds a field to the embed object.

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

[cold sonnet]

the name is a mention there, and values are just texts

[weary birch]

8+

ok*

[cold sonnet]

set the thumbnail with

!d discord.Embed.set_thumbnail

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Embed.set\_thumbnail

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

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

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

[cold sonnet]

takes a url

[weary birch]

thanks

[quaint epoch]

read the traceback

and this doesn't seem like the whole error

what's the following exception?

okay

it says that there is no key called 1 in seq

[manic wing]

nitrogen | legit

[quaint epoch]

so, you tried to pick a key from this json { "hey": 1, "bye": 1 }?

send a more detailed json structure, what part specifically you want to take

@slate swan , do you want to pick a random key, or random value from this? { "hey": 1, "bye": 1 }

or are the keys member_ids?

[flat solstice]

A few hikari questions bc I've had a look at the docs but I found the layout a bit confusing

• does hikari have something similar to discord.abc? if so what is it and if not what would be hikari's equivalent
• hikari has a guildtextchannel, is this a sub thing of hikari.channel(i.e. hikari.channel.guildtextchannel) is is it just a subset of hikari (i.e. hikari.guildtextchannel)
• hikari doesn't have something like discord.ext.commands so is it just hikari.commands? Looking for hikari's equivalentof Bot, AutoShardedBot and Context
• is discord.errors just hikari.errors in hikari
• is discord.role just hikari.role in hikari
• whats the thing to import for buttonstyle, creation of a action row, creation of a button, creation of a select option and the waiting for components in hikari

[quaint epoch]

so, from json { "hey": 1, "bye": 1 } you want to take either hey or bye?

[cold sonnet]

"hey" and "bye" are keys here

the ones are values

so in order to be able to random.choice, you might wanna make a list out of the keys

[quaint epoch]

so then why are you using a dict there? use smth like json { "944912530298527765": ("hey", "bye") }

[cold sonnet]

so use .keys() on this object, which returns a list of these

[quaint epoch]

make a tuple?

or pull data from it?

[slate swan]

[unkempt canyon]

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

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

[slate swan]

No?

[cold sonnet]

try it

[quaint epoch]

random_key = random.choice(guilds_dict[str(ctx.guild.id)].keys()) should work idk

[slate swan]

Imagine using random.randint and simply using indexes

[cold sonnet]

no, he wants to get it only from that id

[quaint epoch]

oh alr

[cold sonnet]

ig

I did not mean to send no iq

question mark

[quaint epoch]

but srsly switch to a list or tuple

don't use dict keys lol

[potent sundial]

Hello I need help with my bot.

I do not know where to place the token.

[slate swan]

can anyone help me with my issue pls?

[slate swan]

import discord

from discord.ext import commands

TOKEN = 'ur token'

client = commands.Bot(command_prefix = '$')
client.remove_command('help') #removes original help command from python file so u can make a costume help command
@client.event
async def on_ready():
print('We have logged in as {0.user}'.format(client))

#ur code commands goes here

@client.event run(TOKE)

[potent sundial]

Ok

[slate swan]

put ur code and at the end put thi

@client.event run(TOKEN)

[potent sundial]

Ok

@slate swan Do I need to put “”

[slate swan]

yes

[potent sundial]

For token.

Ok.

[slate swan]

for the TOKEN = ' '

but at the end no just (TOKEN)

[potent sundial]

Ok.

It’s wrong.

[slate swan]

no lmao

whats wrong

[potent sundial]

Syntax error.

[slate swan]

here da code

[slate swan]

after all the code is done

[potent sundial]

Not.

[slate swan]

maybe thats what is cuasing my issue

[potent sundial]

Error still.

I am using replit.

[slate swan]

but the bot is still working with what i said

[full lily]

you have the context object there. Do ctx.guild.name

[vestal mist]

Im so stupid

[slate swan]

why not

[potent sundial]

I fixed code.

[slate swan]

could u give a bit of a help in sum

[full lily]

no worries. Having a look through the docs when you're looking for something often helps

[vestal mist]

new errors lol

[potent sundial]

Ok bot is online.

Imma add commands.

But I need the basic respond command.

Ok.

No.

@slate swan Check dm

[slate swan]

We all are (:

[vestal mist]

that doesnt make me feel any better lol

[slate swan]

Okay then feel bad stupido /s

Error : ImportError: cannot import name 'Enum' from 'discord' (unknown location)

[final iron]

What are you trying to do?

[lyric tusk]

i can't run a extension

[final iron]

A cog or an actual extension?

[lyric tusk]

a cog

[south jetty]

How can I make roblox discord commands

[lyric tusk]

Extension 'cogs.Musik' raised an error: ImportError: cannot import name 'Enum' from 'discord' (unknown location)

[neat tartan]

Wdym?

[slate swan]

why do you want to import Enum

and it doesnt seem like you're using discord.py

[neat tartan]

I dont even think enum is a discord import 🤔

[slate swan]

it is a part of discord.py

[neat tartan]

Ah, i thought it was part of the numpy or base lib of python

[slate swan]

https://github.com/Rapptz/discord.py/blob/45d498c1b76deaf3b394d17ccf56112fa691d160/discord/enums.py#L165-L171

[slate swan]

tho there's no reason someone would import it

[vestal mist]

im stuck again, please help.
so I have nearly the exact same code and I am getting issues with 'str' not being callable and I have no clue why

I should explain to everybody else

[full lily]

send the code please and the traceback

[vestal mist]

        await member.ban()

with line 104

which is the print, though it is the same with every line

[buoyant quail]

name()

[full lily]

I'm confused

[buoyant quail]

why you call it with ()

[full lily]

why are you doing @client.listen("on_message")

[buoyant quail]

ye, it's also a question

[full lily]

rather than a command

[vestal mist]

good point

also client isnt client

client is bot in this case

[buoyant quail]

about error you need to delete brackets after ctx.guild.name

[slate swan]

1. why command with on_message events
2. you cannot use checks in an event/listener
3. on_message takes only 1 argument

there's no way a Context would pop up in an event

[potent sundial]

He is waiting for a command such as “!ban” in this case he was attempting to make a ban command by using the start function.

Idk how I know that.

[vestal mist]

so how am I supposed to listen with a command? (sorry if Im stupid Im new to quite a lot of this)

[potent sundial]

;-;

[potent sundial]

Same.

[full lily]

as long as you use the right decorator, discord.py will take care of that for you

[potent sundial]

I want to make a ban command but I am afraid it will mess up the whole code lol.

[haughty quartz]

best library for slash commands?

[vestal mist]

so "on_message"?

[buoyant quail]

....

[vestal mist]

I guess not

[slate swan]

Disnake & hikari-lightbulb is something I prefer

[alpine furnace]

Pycord by far. Full integration

[slate swan]

there's no "best" library

[haughty quartz]

its in one package right?

[alpine furnace]

Yes

Drop in replacement for dpy

[haughty quartz]

can u give me the docs as its kinda confusing with there being v1 and v2

[potent sundial]

I have a bot that is written in Node.js it has some errors but the bot is abandon.

[slate swan]

it's not a replacement of discord.py , is just a fork like 10+ others

[haughty quartz]

join the discord.js server

[potent sundial]

Ok.

[haughty quartz]

isnt it by some guys that made discord py

[slate swan]

No

[haughty quartz]

i currently use disnake

[slate swan]

discord py was developed by Danny as the sole core maintainer

[potent sundial]

Where.

[slate swan]

Do you face any issue with it?

[haughty quartz]

but i really need these slash commands

[slate swan]

Disnake has slash commands

It always did

[haughty quartz]

wasnt it disslash

huh im confused

[slate swan]

https://github.com/DisnakeDev/disnake/tree/master/examples%2Fslash_commands

[haughty quartz]

damn

thats awesome

[slate swan]

it's not like only pycord and dislash can have slash commands

[buoyant quail]

xd

[slate swan]

And fyi, Disnake is developed by the developer of dislash.py

[haughty quartz]

thanks !

[slate swan]

So if you every used dislash you can just shift it easily to disnake

The syntax is same

[haughty quartz]

and i dont need to change to another library

[supple crescent]

here is my current channel creator. I want it to also ping the person that created the chat inside that new chat, is that possible?

@bot.command(name="contact")
async def contact(ctx):
    guild = ctx.guild
    admin_role =  guild.get_role(945325312533729311)
    
    overwrites = {
        guild.default_role: discord.PermissionOverwrite(view_channel=False),
        ctx.author: discord.PermissionOverwrite(view_channel=True),
        admin_role: discord.PermissionOverwrite(view_channel=True),
        guild.me: discord.PermissionOverwrite(view_channel=True)
    }

    await guild.create_text_channel("private-channel", overwrites=overwrites)

[haughty quartz]

thats a huge advantage lmao

[buoyant quail]

await channel.send(ctx.author.mention)

channel = await guild.create_text_channel("private-channel", overwrites=overwrites)

[supple crescent]

but the bot created the channell, would that ping the bot

[buoyant quail]

ctx.author is author of the command

[supple crescent]

ohhh

[vestal mist]

Im still really confused

[buoyant quail]

first create than send

[supple crescent]

@buoyant quail like this?

@bot.command(name="contact")
async def contact(ctx):
    guild = ctx.guild
    admin_role =  guild.get_role(945325312533729311)
    
    overwrites = {
        guild.default_role: discord.PermissionOverwrite(view_channel=False),
        ctx.author: discord.PermissionOverwrite(view_channel=True),
        admin_role: discord.PermissionOverwrite(view_channel=True),
        guild.me: discord.PermissionOverwrite(view_channel=True)
    }
await channel.send(ctx.author.mention)
channel = await guild.create_text_channel("private-channel", overwrites=overwrites)

[buoyant quail]

channel = await guild.create_text_channel("private-channel", overwrites=overwrites)
await channel.send(ctx.author.mention)

[supple crescent]

gotcha

[supple crescent]

so like this?

bot.command(name="contact")
async def contact(ctx):
    guild = ctx.guild
    admin_role =  guild.get_role(945325312533729311)
    
    overwrites = {
        guild.default_role: discord.PermissionOverwrite(view_channel=False),
        ctx.author: discord.PermissionOverwrite(view_channel=True),
        admin_role: discord.PermissionOverwrite(view_channel=True),
        guild.me: discord.PermissionOverwrite(view_channel=True)
    }

channel = await guild.create_text_channel("private-channel", overwrites=overwrites)  
await channel.send(ctx.author.mention)

wait no isidle the loop

[buoyant quail]

ye. but remember about indentation

[vestal mist]

please help, I dont know what you mean by the correct decorator and the docs dont really explain it to me very well, help?

@client.command()
@commands.has_permissions(kick_members=True, ban_members=True, manage_roles=True)
async def ban_listener (ctx, member = discord.Member, reason=None):

  if msg.startswith('Ban'):

    # if member.guild_permissions.administrator():
    #   await ctx.channel.send('Err: User is administrator')
    
      print(member)
      print(ctx)
      print(ctx.guild.name())

    # else:
      if reason is None:
        await member.send(f'Hello, you have been banned from {ctx.guild.name}. There was no specified reason for this ban.')
        await ctx.channel.send(f'user {member.name} has been banned by {ctx.author.name} for no specified reason.')
        await member.ban()

      else:
        await member.send(f'Hello {member.name} , you have been banned from {ctx.guild.name()}. The reason specified for this was {reason}.')
        await ctx.channel.send(f'user {member.name} has been banned by {ctx.author.name} the reason specified was {reason}.')
        await member.ban()

[buoyant quail]

you don't need check message. command will be used like the name of function

async def ban_listener mean that you call it like !ban_listener

[vestal mist]

ohhhhhhhhhhhhh

tysm

[potent sundial]

@vestal mist Can I have a kick code.

[vestal mist]

with the command prefix being ?, it should be ?ban, right? I am still not getting anything

[vestal mist]

uhhh

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Member.kick

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

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

Help me

[pliant gulch]

!json

[unkempt canyon]

When using JSON, you might run into the following error:

JSONDecodeError: Expecting value: line 1 column 1 (char 0)

This error could have appeared because you just created the JSON file and there is nothing in it at the moment.

Whilst having empty data is no problem, the file itself may never be completely empty.

You most likely wanted to structure your JSON as a dictionary. To do this, edit your empty JSON file so that it instead contains {}.

Different data types are also supported. If you wish to read more on these, please refer to this article.

[slow fog]

you can even use a text file instead of json

[slate swan]

why do i get this error help Command raised an exception: AttributeError: 'generator' object has no attribute 'to_dict'

[vestal mist]

I dont think its being called as the print functions dont display anything

[slate swan]

🤔

[vestal mist]

@buoyant quail any ideas?

[unkempt yacht]

Is it possible to do it so that if you run a command in one server, it unbans in another

[potent sundial]

Do not understands

[final iron]

Don't recommend that

[potent sundial]

await edit(*, nick=..., mute=..., deafen=..., suppress=..., roles=..., voice_channel=..., reason=None)

[buoyant quail]

i launched this code by me. it workes. but with errors ofc

[slow fog]

i didnt recommended it i just said its available

[final iron]

Why would you want to do that?

[final iron]

Which is recommending it

[vestal mist]

but if you do ?ban does anything happen?

[slate swan]

what is happening

[final iron]

Nothing

[unkempt yacht]

so if someone was banned and they are appealing that ban in another server, you unban them from the main server in the appeal

[buoyant quail]

yes

[vestal mist]

what

how

[buoyant quail]

<class 'discord.member.Member'>
<discord.ext.commands.context.Context object at 0x0000015D7FA81FD0>
Bot tester serv

and then errors

[slate swan]

well youre trying to print an obj

[vestal mist]

by doing ?ban ?

[slate swan]

!e

print(str)

[buoyant quail]

yes. !ban by me, but does not matter

[unkempt canyon]

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

<class 'str'>

[slate swan]

same thing lol

[final iron]

Code?

where is @ before bot.command

[slate swan]

its a deco

[final iron]

You're making member default to discord.Member

You sure you didnt mean to type hint?

[buoyant quail]

he said command even doesn't run

[supple crescent]

😭 🔫

[slate swan]

allot of flaws in that code

[unkempt yacht]

Could someone help me with this

[potent sundial]

Does anyone know how to make a command where the bot changes your name like the !afk command.

[slate swan]

yeah just get the guild and unban the member

[final iron]

!d discord.Member.edit

[supple crescent]

que?

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Member.edit

await edit(*, nick=..., mute=..., deafen=..., suppress=..., roles=..., voice_channel=..., reason=None)```
This function is a [*coroutine*](https://docs.python.org/3/library/asyncio-task.html#coroutine).

Edits the member’s data.

Depending on the parameter passed, this requires different permissions listed below...

[slate swan]

!d discord.Guild.unban

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Guild.unban

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

Unbans a user from the guild.

The user must meet the [`abc.Snowflake`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/api.html#discord.abc.Snowflake "discord.abc.Snowflake") abc.

You must have the [`ban_members`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/api.html#discord.Permissions.ban_members "discord.Permissions.ban_members") permission to do this.

[buoyant quail]

why not. just get server by id

[vestal mist]

@final iron it runs but if I do ?ban nothing happens

[slate swan]

es un decorador

its a decorator

[supple crescent]

bruh lamens turn pls

terms

[slate swan]

wut

[final iron]

Do you have an error handler?

[vestal mist]

no

[final iron]

That is in lamens terms

[potent sundial]

I do not understand…

[slate swan]

1. do you have members intents
2. you cant ban a member higher than the bots role
3. can your bot ban members?

[final iron]

If you don't know what a decorator is you're not ready for discord.py

[final iron]

Which part

[vestal mist]

what are member intents

[slate swan]

!intents

[unkempt canyon]

Using intents in discord.py

Intents are a feature of Discord that tells the gateway exactly which events to send your bot. By default, discord.py has all intents enabled, except for the Members and Presences intents, which are needed for events such as on_member and to get members' statuses.

To enable one of these intents, you need to first go to the Discord developer portal, then to the bot page of your bot's application. Scroll down to the Privileged Gateway Intents section, then enable the intents that you need.

Next, in your bot you need to set the intents you want to connect with in the bot's constructor using the intents keyword argument, like this:

from discord import Intents
from discord.ext import commands

intents = Intents.default()
intents.members = True

bot = commands.Bot(command_prefix="!", intents=intents)

For more info about using intents, see the discord.py docs on intents, and for general information about them, see the Discord developer documentation on intents.

[supple crescent]

dude ive known this library for 32 hours please stop dude

[final iron]

!intents

[slate swan]

lol

[potent sundial]

I do not know how to create the command.

[buoyant quail]

chat is moving fast :p

[potent sundial]

Not experienced in PY.

[final iron]

Decorators are not just for discord.py

[supple crescent]

fr

[vestal mist]

no do I need them?

[final iron]

Decorators are used in python code all the time

[slate swan]

which sucks

[supple crescent]

ik i tought i was something else for dis.py

[final iron]

Which is very bad

[slate swan]

so basic yet no one knows about it

[final iron]

Mhm

[potent sundial]

How do I create the command.

[vestal mist]

do I need intents?

[buoyant quail]

check examples https://github.com/Rapptz/discord.py

[final iron]

Check this out:
https://vcokltfre.dev

[slate swan]

[vestal mist]

ok I have enabled intents and stuff, it is still not working

[slate swan]

show code

!paste

[unkempt canyon]

Pasting large amounts of code

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

[slate swan]

why do i get this error? Command raised an exception: AttributeError: 'generator' object has no attribute 'to_dict'

well a generator doesnt have that attr

[south jetty]

Im looking for a api or docs, so I can create roblox commands

[slate swan]

i ment everything

[buoyant quail]

await ctx.guild.name wth

[slate swan]

how do i put a dictionary into a embed then

cos that wat i found on docs

[buoyant quail]

make it str

[slate swan]

btw thats now how you typehint

[vestal mist]

I have no clue what Im doing ok

[slate swan]

well its like that but you arent setting a dict

[vestal mist]

my script is longer than 2000 characters

[slate swan]

ok?

use the pasting service

[vestal mist]

what is the pasting service

[south jetty]

can someone tell me an api to code roblox commands on discord

[slate swan]

^

[slate swan]

check if roblox has an api

[buoyant quail]

google...

[slate swan]

https://developer.roblox.com/en-us/api-reference

[south jetty]

there are multiple i dont know which one is good

[buoyant quail]

Robloxpy for example

[dull terrace]

how do you feel about this caching mechanism 🤔

[buoyant quail]

lol don't u think someone knows

[slate swan]

?

[vestal mist]

nobody answered :(

there is another script but it is really unimportant

[maiden fable]

Hmm

[slate swan]

should be in a class

[dull terrace]

just for organisation or?

[slate swan]

no

[cold sonnet]

what the heck is bob

[slate swan]

a class that has all the attrs

[dull terrace]

i use bob for user id

[buoyant quail]

xd

[slate swan]

my cache class if you want an example

from typing import Any

__all__ = ("Cache",)


class Cache:
    def __init__(self):
        self.cache: dict[Any, dict[Any, Any]] = {}

    
    def __dict__(self) -> dict[Any, Any]:
        return self.cache

    def __len__(self) -> int:
        return len(self.cache)

    def _save(self, key: Any, value: dict[Any, Any]) -> None:
        self.cache[key] = value

    def _get(self, key: int) -> None | dict[Any, Any]:
        try:
            return self.cache[key]
        except KeyError:
            return None

    @property
    def all_cache_items(self) -> None | dict[Any, Any]:
        return self.cache

    def _get_index(self, key: int, index: str) -> None | str:
        try:
            return self.cache[key][index0][index1]
        except KeyError:
            return None

[unkempt yacht]

what would the await ctx... be for the unban if you are unbanning

[dull terrace]

hmm okay thanks

[unkempt yacht]

where would i put the server ID

if im unbanning from another server

[slate swan]

thats not how things work .unban is a method from the Member class

[pliant gulch]

The typehint for all_cache_items is wrong

Also wouldn't it make sense to make the Key & Value generic types

[slate swan]

how

[pliant gulch]

For type-safety

[unkempt yacht]

o

[pliant gulch]

Because it always returns a dict, your default is an empty dict etc

It never returns None

[slate swan]

yeah ik i gotta fix that i think i did but i copypasted something old

[unkempt yacht]

so what would it be?

for the bot to unban the user

[slate swan]

i mean it can return str, int, bool and others

[vestal mist]

@slate swan have you any idea why this ^ script isnt working?

[pliant gulch]

Yea, but you typehinted it as Any so you have no clue what the type is actually

[kindred drum]

yo I got the most strange problem:
I have a command to remove all of a users roles (+strip)
When I use the command, it doesn't remove all the roles, only some and provides no error.
code: ```py
@commands.command(name="strip")
async def strip(self, ctx, member: discord.User):

    guild = bot.get_guild(915357451484790916)
    for i in range(0,len(Json_Items)): #It doesn't exist
            for x in Json_Items[i]:
                if int(x) == member.id:
                    member = await bot.fetch_user(x)
                    member_real = guild.get_member(member.id)
                     
                    print(Json_Items[i][x]['roles'])       
                    for c in Json_Items[i][x]['roles']:
                    
                        
                        

                        
                        role_remove = get(guild.roles, name=c)
                        print("removed role: "+c)
                  
                        await member_real.remove_roles(role_remove)
    await ctx.send("User roles striped")```

gif of whats happening:https://gyazo.com/cf5a57ca721daf9e248486e6d64c564d

[slate swan]

yeah because it can take multiple types

[kindred drum]

it only removes those roles, no more

the list of the users roles is printed above

[pliant gulch]

Then you should typehint it as so, otherwise it isn't really type-safe

[buoyant quail]

wth indentation

[slate swan]

typehint it with what union?

[unkempt yacht]

??

[pliant gulch]

KeyT = TypeVar("KeyT")
ValueT = TypeVar("KeyT")

class Cache(Generic[KeyT, ValueT]):
    def __init__(self) -> None:
        self.root: dict[KeyT, ValueT] = {}
```For an example

So then you could do ```py
cache = Cachestr, int
reveal_type(cache.root) # dict[str, int]

[vestal mist]

yeah, I dont get why it doesnt even mention anything, help?

[slate swan]

what the heck does TypeVar class do show the data type?

NOne

new type i see

[pliant gulch]

Yea but do you understand what I'm saying here

Making it generic is better than using Any

And ensures type safety

[slate swan]

im not even sure what Generics do lol

[slate swan]

type safety as?

[pliant gulch]

Think of the word "generic"

[pliant gulch]

Means you know what the type is, instead of it being Any

[slate swan]

i know what generic means im saying what action it does

[kindred drum]

I tried adding a 2 second timer on each role removal

[slate swan]

ah

[pliant gulch]

It makes the class Generic

[kindred drum]

and it still doesn't remove all the roles

[slate swan]

generic by?

[kindred drum]

i just odnt understand it

[supple crescent]

there is no error, its just not doing anything. what am i missing?

@client.event 
async def on_member_join(member):
     channel=client.get_channel(945789074663436318)
     emb=discord.Embed(title="NEW MEMBER",description=f"Thanks {member.mention} for joining!")
     await channel.send(embed=emb)

this is my fist try with embeds so idk if its right

[slate swan]

!intents

[unkempt canyon]

Using intents in discord.py

Intents are a feature of Discord that tells the gateway exactly which events to send your bot. By default, discord.py has all intents enabled, except for the Members and Presences intents, which are needed for events such as on_member and to get members' statuses.

For more info about using intents, see the discord.py docs on intents, and for general information about them, see the Discord developer documentation on intents.

[pliant gulch]

The class has an arbitrary type or whatever along those lines

[slate swan]

not sure what you mean

[kindred drum]

I used await asyncio.sleep(2)

[slate swan]

by arbitrary

[unkempt yacht]

??

[pliant gulch]

You should read up on it, if you're making your wrapper typehinted you should be typehinting correctly

[slate swan]

do you have a example situation being used in rin?

ill check it out as well

[pliant gulch]

https://github.com/an-dyy/Rin/blob/master/rin/models/cacheable.py

[slate swan]

thx

[unkempt yacht]

What would the line of code be for the bot to unban a user with the given server ID?

I just need that one bit.

[slate swan]

!d discord.Guild.unban

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Guild.unban

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

Unbans a user from the guild.

The user must meet the [`abc.Snowflake`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/api.html#discord.abc.Snowflake "discord.abc.Snowflake") abc.

You must have the [`ban_members`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/api.html#discord.Permissions.ban_members "discord.Permissions.ban_members") permission to do this.

[kindred drum]

also it bypasses other things rate limit,s like it just goes until it can when adding roles (and goes after the rate limit), I don't get why its different for removing roles

[unkempt yacht]

await unban(user, *, reason=None)?

[kindred drum]

await unban (ctx, member: discord.User, reason=None)

[unkempt yacht]

so where's the bit which unbans from the other server

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Member.remove\_roles

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

Removes [`Role`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/api.html#discord.Role "discord.Role")s from this member.

You must have the [`manage_roles`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/api.html#discord.Permissions.manage_roles "discord.Permissions.manage_roles") permission to use this, and the removed [`Role`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/api.html#discord.Role "discord.Role")s must appear lower in the list of roles than the highest role of the member.

[unkempt yacht]

How, this is my code so far:

@commands.command(name="mainunban", aliases="mub")
@commands.has_guild_permissions(administrator=True)
async def mainunban(self, ctx, user: discord.User, reason:str=None):
        """Unbans the user from the main server."""
        main = 929308819526414387
        await unban (ctx, member: discord.User, reason=None)
        ube = discord.Embed(title=f'{member.name} was unbanned!, description='')
        ube.set_footer(name="Moderator ID:", value=f'{ctx.author})
        ube.set_thumbnail(url=ctx.guild.icon_url)
        ube.timestamp = datetime.datetime.utcnow()
        
        await ctx.send(embed=ube)```

!d discord.Member

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Member

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

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

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

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

hash(x) Returns the member’s hash.

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

[buoyant quail]

you lost ' here ube = discord.Embed(title=f'{member.name} was unbanned!, description='')

[unkempt yacht]

ok

[kindred drum]

what ya mean

[unkempt yacht]

ok

[cold sonnet]

huh

self.bot.get_guild

it is it

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Client.fetch\_guild

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

Retrieves a [`Guild`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/api.html#discord.Guild "discord.Guild") from an ID.

Note

Using this, you will **not** receive [`Guild.channels`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/api.html#discord.Guild.channels "discord.Guild.channels"), [`Guild.members`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/api.html#discord.Guild.members "discord.Guild.members"), [`Member.activity`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/api.html#discord.Member.activity "discord.Member.activity") and [`Member.voice`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/api.html#discord.Member.voice "discord.Member.voice") per [`Member`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/api.html#discord.Member "discord.Member").

Note

This method is an API call. For general usage, consider [`get_guild()`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/api.html#discord.Client.get_guild "discord.Client.get_guild") instead.

[cold sonnet]

no

no reason api call

[cold sonnet]

hmmmm

[slate swan]

i can't seem to install it

[slate swan]

you dont

the library

its a class

[pliant gulch]

You gotta install discord.py through github in order to get them

[slate swan]

oh ok

[slim ibex]

🗿

[slate swan]

yeah you need 2.0 aka main branch

yeah ill prefer using a fork than main

[pliant gulch]

Your forks use the originals implementation kek

Or at the very least, the base

[slate swan]

yeah but other features

[buoyant quail]

so they are named forks

they don't change everything

[slate swan]

nope

reason why its a fork its just another version

[pliant gulch]

Rin had buttons but I removed them for the refactor!

[slate swan]

when it comes out in 50 years🏃

[slim ibex]

There are some minor changes like avatar_url to avatar.url

[pliant gulch]

I have only action row and text modals right now

[slim ibex]

[slate swan]

yes

[pliant gulch]

Yes

[slate swan]

andys aim with rin is performance and overall being better

[pliant gulch]

I don't use C or Cython right now, no

[slim ibex]

it would be better regardless

[pliant gulch]

But when I add voice I'll be writing bindings in either rust or C++

[slim ibex]

Rust🗿

[pliant gulch]

That's if I ever get to voice 😔

[slate swan]

andy

[pliant gulch]

I gotta finish models first

[slate swan]

you lesson to devs to make the wrapper better? so like you take the word from the community

[slim ibex]

yes I am part of it

[slate swan]

so its kinda ran by the community or based off its ideas

[slate swan]

same here

[pliant gulch]

Weird how rin turned out

[slate swan]

how so?

[buoyant quail]

who is rin :

[pliant gulch]

You know the whole reason why I wrote rin was out of spite since another wrapper dev tried to scout me for their wrapper

Then I looked at their source code which looked god awful

So I decided to flex on them with rin

[slate swan]

now youre doing it to me🗿

[pliant gulch]

And the previous wrapper I made before rin was also out of spite kek

For which?

[slate swan]

lefi?

[pliant gulch]

Yea

[slate swan]

lol

[slim ibex]

chad move

[pliant gulch]

🗿

[slate swan]

andy has something wrong with him to flex on everyone

🙄

check if fortnite has an api

[hoary cargo]

🗿 is there a way to sort member permissions to return a list with moderation perms instead of all of their perms even the generic ones

[velvet tinsel]

there's literally an API for nearly everything on python

it's a huge community

[slate swan]

not an api for you

[velvet tinsel]

I found a dogecoin API

[velvet tinsel]

😦

[slate swan]

[velvet tinsel]

and lots of other ones

weird and wacky
pycardano

[velvet tinsel]

why u....why u no API me 😦

[slate swan]

cause no api for you🗿

[velvet tinsel]

json.decoder.JSONDecodeError: Expecting property name enclosed in double quotes: line 2 column 1 (char 2)

is it?

where

ah ic

thats nice

why

watch the bot get written in js💀

😭

[final iron]

They wouldn't do that

[slate swan]

ik

its a python server

[final iron]

It would be very discouraging to learn python if the python bot was coded in javascript

[slate swan]

it was a joke bro

[pliant gulch]

Would've liked to see hikari be used or something

[slate swan]

yeah but it would be hard to rewrite the whole bot

[final iron]

How advanced is hikari right now?

[pliant gulch]

The main advantage of python based wrappers is the decorator syntax, rust is ok for discord bot's but the macros are just not it

In my opinion at least the main advantage is the decorator syntax

Other langauges you need to register via call, etc

Don't even get me started on cpp

[slate swan]

Help

[royal jasper]

how can i handle multiple selections with discord_components? like, if the person select something on menu and want to select other thing, don't show "this interaction failed"

[rain olive]

its better than all those dpy-wannabe-forks

[final iron]

Theres nothing wrong with the forks?

The whole point was for forks to be made

[rain olive]

have you even tried hikari as a library

[final iron]

Like what are we going to do? Use discord.py, miss out on every single new feature until the library just eventually breaks?

[alpine furnace]

What are its pros and cons compared to something like pycord

[kindred drum]

i dont know any way to do it

[alpine furnace]

Where is this method located

[rain olive]

all pros, no cons, there's so many I cannot possibly list all of them

some are:

• choice of command handlers
• easy to work with music libs
  etc

[supple crescent]

sorry?

[royal jasper]

can anyone help me?

[alpine furnace]

Can you give an example? Seems like everything in their samples folder, you can do with dpy

Relatively easily too

discord.ext.commands is not pushed on dpy users at all, in my opinion

[alpine furnace]

Like, is it in a class, or is your bot just a single file

[supple crescent]

single file

[alpine furnace]

Soo the modules are just disjoint from the project, and if one becomes the best in its field, then there’s no point in having this extensibility anyway…other projects would just end up merging it into the main repo, even

[karmic tartan]

Grs are you like always talking here

[alpine furnace]

But like, that’s not to say you can’t do this with discord.py either

[alpine furnace]

Lol, definitely not, I see @slate swan more than anyone here

[karmic tartan]

Alright lmao, just I was on here at like 2 am last night and you were talking and now it’s 5 pm and you’re still on

[kindred drum]

ah found it, stack overflow always coming in clutch, you gotta use ```py
member = await bot.fetch_user(x)
member_real = guild.get_member(member.id)

await member_real.edit(roles=[])```

[supple crescent]

the penguin gun man is here a lot too

[alpine furnace]

Nah, just got back from class a few hours ago . Slept at 3am cause discord arguments are pretty entertaining

[kindred drum]

strange bug tho

[supple crescent]

what needs to change if its a single file?

[kindred drum]

i think its a bug with discord.py,

[supple crescent]

if anythib

[supple crescent]

stack overflow is a lifesaver

[haughty quartz]

is there a way to make a users name in chat appear blue like a ping without actually mentioning that person?

[alpine furnace]

Nothing actually, I was suspicious that it was in some random class

[karmic tartan]

Ah alright, I came to check the channel and saw you talking and was like wtf

[kindred drum]

literally 😄

[alpine furnace]

Lol, deja vu

[supple crescent]

then what needs to change? no error it just doesnt work

[alpine furnace]

That place is toxic af. Avoid at all costs, also that djs server

[final iron]

The dpy server is fine if you actually know python

[alpine furnace]

Does your bot actually start

[supple crescent]

yes

[final iron]

Only if you're a beginner

They have it listed that a basic understanding of python is required

[hoary cargo]

i'll try to filter them manually using a dict

[alpine furnace]

Yeah, actually, if you were to meet face to face with the people you argue with here, you’d probably get along as best friends 😄

Something about discord, man

[supple crescent]

bruh i dont get this, no error, bot starts, just silence. 😭

[rain olive]

typehints in dpy are used as converters

🗿👍

[supple crescent]

soo any other reason it wouldnt worek?

[alpine furnace]

I’m stumped, but have you actually tried joining the server with an alt, or something while the bot is running

[supple crescent]

yes

[alpine furnace]

Print something at the start of the method?

[supple crescent]

sure

!paste

[unkempt canyon]

Pasting large amounts of code

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

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

[supple crescent]

kofc

@slate swan https://paste.pythondiscord.com/ohebikimon

and @alpine furnace if ur intrested

its around line 98

[alpine furnace]

You’re making two clients

One bot and one random empty base client

[supple crescent]

oh

[alpine furnace]

All the commands are registered under bot, and you run bot, but not client

[supple crescent]

where?

[alpine furnace]

Line 14

You can just do @bot.event

[supple crescent]

what shouldi put there

[alpine furnace]

Nothing, remove it

You already have a bot object right under it

[supple crescent]

and change line 98 to @ bot.event

[alpine furnace]

Yeah

[supple crescent]

k'

[alpine furnace]

And that on_ready too

[supple crescent]

uhhhh

@alpine furnace now every @client.event doesnt work

wtf

pls help

[alpine furnace]

Replace them with bot.event

Bot is a client

[supple crescent]

laorght

@alpine furnace async def on_ready():
TypeError: Client.event() missing 1 required positional argument: 'coro'

thats the on ready

[alpine furnace]

Did you put () after bot.event

[supple crescent]

yes......

totally....

[torn sail]

Remove the ()

[rotund creek]

Hey

[potent spear]

ayo

[hoary cargo]

wow no arguing today

[lost lichen]

i cant get this to work and i really dont know why...

authorfoot = ctx.author + 'response time: ' + 'placeholder'
embed.set_footer(text=authorfoot)
await ctx.send(embed=embed)```

but this does work

```py

authorfoot = ctx.author
embed.set_footer(text=authorfoot)
await ctx.send(embed=embed)

TypeError: unsupported operand type(s) for +: 'Member' and 'str'

im super confused

[slim ibex]

you can’t add a member object to a string

[sick birch]

str(ctx.author)

[slim ibex]

make it a str with str method

[slim ibex]

^

[lost lichen]

AH

thanks!

[dull terrace]

anyone wanna give an quick opinion on something in #databases?

[final iron]

No

[whole sluice]

how do you put api's on a discord bot? or to be more specfic how does dank memer insert a meme whenever u type a command?

[slate swan]

mostly use async api wrappers or just make the request yourself

[whole sluice]

alright. im still begineer in python so what should i go learn about before coding a discord bot?

[slate swan]

well you will need to learn oop async programming and basic python

[whole sluice]

im pretty decent in basic python. but ill learn async coding

[slate swan]

and do you know oop?

[whole sluice]

no

[slate swan]

then you will need it and allot

since the lib uses objs

[whole sluice]

yeah i have a lot to learn lmao

[slate swan]

and after that you can learn dpy https://vcokltfre.dev/

and then you could migrate to a fork or just learn with a fork

[whole sluice]

cool ill bookmark that ty

[slate swan]

yw

[vivid marsh]

Quick Question (I know this is a python server) but would it be better to make a eco bot with js or py?

[whole sluice]

i think i lied. i dont really know all of basic python yet. im still learning functions

im on default arguments

[slate swan]

depends on what youre comfortable with

[vivid marsh]

I understand python more but I’ve heard js is overall faster and better for eco bots

[slate swan]

then you have allot to learn!

[normal bolt]

help pls, How can I tag a member @member and make the bot get the id of the member I tagged?

[whole sluice]

yep! but im willing to commit to it.

[vivid marsh]

Look up python tutorials and just sit back relax and watch

[slate swan]

i mean js is fast but py isnt crazy slow and it wont make a difference tbh

[vivid marsh]

Alright thanks

[whole sluice]

yeah. i also try to follow along with them. but i keep getting nervous because im not exactly memorizing it

[slate swan]

use a member argument thats a member obj which you can use the id attr

[slate swan]

yw

[whole sluice]

im trying to memorize it but its a lot

[slate swan]

yes it will take months to master

[vivid marsh]

It’s a weird tip but it actually helped me understand more go copy some code and rewrite it. It helped me memorize what and how to write stuff especially with discord bots

[whole sluice]

once im done with this full course ill start working on more projects

[slate swan]

nice

[whole sluice]

its like 12 hours of videos. cause i bought this course from mosh hamedani for like 20 bucks. since i really liked his 1 hour course

[whole sluice]

interesting. thx for the tip.

[hoary cargo]

i did whois dyno rip-off, i think it's decent, what u guys think

[final iron]

Directly stolen from dyno

🗿

[pliant gulch]

The join time should be using discord timestamps

Same with account registration

Would look a lot better and more interactive

[final iron]

Also accounts for timezones

I wish discord allowed the end user to choose how the timestamps were formatted

Like maybe a drop down menu

[hoary cargo]

i was sure someone will say this 🗿 tbh i don't quite understand how the discord timestamp works

[final iron]

It's simple

[slate swan]

doesnt even have a timestamp

[final iron]

<t:1231231239>
<t:1231231239>

[slate swan]

🗿

[final iron]

Theres something in dpy that can help you create it

[hoary cargo]

🗿 then it's an absolute success, though there's one problem that makes no much sense the roles are reversed like displayed from bot to top in hierarchy instead of the opposite

[final iron]

You could reverse the list

So it goes the other way

🗿

!e

your_role_list = ["a", "b", "c", "d"]
your_role_list.reverse()
print(your_role_list)

[slate swan]

[final iron]

bro

[unkempt canyon]

[final iron]

You saw nothing

[slate swan]

finally

[final iron]

[pliant gulch]

You don't need to, just use the helper method for it

!d discord.utils.format_dt

[unkempt canyon]

discord.utils.format\_dt

discord.utils.format_dt(dt, /, style=None)```
A helper function to format a [`datetime.datetime`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/datetime.html#datetime.datetime "(in Python v3.9)") for presentation within Discord.

This allows for a locale-independent way of presenting data using Discord specific Markdown...

[hoary cargo]

 allroles = [r.mention for r in member.roles if r != ctx.guild.default_role]
 roles = ", ".join(allroles)

🗿 what can i reverse in this though

nvm

[final iron]

member.roles

🗿

[hoary cargo]

can't do that 🗿
Expected type 'collections.Iterable', got 'None' instead

[final iron]

Oh yeah

[hoary cargo]

isn't this like using datetime ?

[final iron]

.reverse() doesn't return the reversed list, it just reverses the list and returns None

Cause lists are mutable or smth

🗿

[hoary cargo]

[pliant gulch]

You just pass in member.created_at for an example to the function

Then it returns a discord formatted timestamp for you

[hoary cargo]

oh

[final iron]

Just add a line in-between those reversing allroles

That should work

🗿

[slim ibex]

moai spreads

[slim ibex]

🗿

[slate swan]

not sure how that returns none

[final iron]

bor

[slim ibex]

thats what im saying

[final iron]

e

iirc when you use a method on a string it returns a new string because strings are immutable

[slim ibex]

!e
print([1, 2, 3, 4].reverse())

[unkempt canyon]

@slim ibex :white_check_mark: Your eval job has completed with return code 0.

None

[slate swan]

thats so dumb

it doesnt return anything it just changes the state of the list

Watch andy say I'm wrong and make me sad

😭

[slim ibex]

[glacial zealot]

Well, sorted exists

I was about to say you were wrong at first cause you said lists were immutable

[slate swan]

watch him

[slate swan]

yep

But then you fixed it

[final iron]

I'm running on 5 hours of sleep

reversed

reversed(seq)```
Return a reverse [iterator](https://docs.python.org/3/glossary.html#term-iterator). *seq* must be an object which has a `__reversed__()` method or supports the sequence protocol (the `__len__()` method and the `__getitem__()` method with integer arguments starting at `0`).

[slim ibex]

o lma

[glacial zealot]

List methods generally edit the state of the list, instead of creating a new one

That's what I said

[slate swan]

I've mistook list.reverse() to also return a reference to itself many times

[pliant gulch]

A few days ago I fell into a trap of using a default mutable for my class constructor

[slate swan]

unlike str methods that return a new string

[final iron]

🗿

You copied what I said

[slate swan]

no

[slim ibex]

💀

[pliant gulch]

to be fair I've never had that happen to me until recently so

[hoary cargo]

ok indeed this looks more clean than my strftime 🗿

[slim ibex]

can a lambda take in *args, **kwargs?

I'd assume so but like

wait imma stop before ashley ots me

Yes

 allroles = [r.mention for r in member.roles if r != ctx.guild.default_role]
 allroles.reverse()
 roles = ", ".join(allroles)

🗿

[supple crescent]

i was trying to make it so when you do !clear, as long as you have the right role, it will delete the channel, but im getting the error: user is a required argument that is missing.

@bot.command(name="clear")
@commands.has_role(945325312533729311)
async def someCommand(ctx, user: discord.TextChannel):
    user.roles
    if role in user.roles:
      await ctx.send("Confirmed! Deleting channel in 10 seconds, no turning back!"),time.sleep(10),await ctx.channel.delete()
    else:
         await ctx.send("Sorry, you cant do that D:")

[final iron]

Mention a channel

#discord-bots

[supple crescent]

this is from an old stack overflow so it might be outdated

ohh so like !clear #channel1

lemme try

[final iron]

user: discord.TextChannel

🗿

[slate swan]

user: discord.TextChanne lol

[supple crescent]

oh

.

[final iron]

if roles in user.roles

I see a lot of issues in this code

[supple crescent]

🗿

[slate swan]

useless else lol

[final iron]

Not really

[slate swan]

yes really

if role in user.roles:
      return await ctx.send("Confirmed! Deleting channel in 10 seconds, no turning back!"),time.sleep(10),await ctx.channel.delete()
await ctx.send("Sorry, you cant do that D:")

it wouldnt continue

and time.sleep🏃

[supple crescent]

whats wrong with time.sleep?

[final iron]

Blocking

[slate swan]

its sync it stops your whole code

[supple crescent]

ohh

[slate swan]

use asyncio.sleep which only sleeps on the coro

[supple crescent]

i guess ive never had 2 codes that could be going at the same point

[slate swan]

await asyncio.sleep(10)

[supple crescent]

hmm il look into that

[supple crescent]

do i need a library for that orr

[slate swan]

no its only that code not 2

[slate swan]

yes which is a built in

[supple crescent]

so i just cant do 2 !clears simultaneously

[hoary cargo]

🗿🗿 i feel like resourcing myself rn, there's the fixed version anyway
better than dyno certified moment

[supple crescent]

is there any way to make it so it doesnt need a channel mentioned

wait yeah

you can make it recognize the channel the cmd came from right?

[slate swan]

that is async yes

[supple crescent]

alr that wont matter muich but thats good to know

[final iron]

!d discord.ext.commands.Context.channel

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ext.commands.Context.channel

Returns the channel associated with this context’s command. Shorthand for Message.channel.

[supple crescent]

yeah

thats what i thought

i mean, im in test.

@bot.command(name='clear', help='delete a channel with the specified name')
async def clear(ctx, channel_name):
   guild = bot.guilds[0]
   existing_channel = discord.utils.get(guild.channels, name=channel_name)
   
   # if the channel exists
   if existing_channel is not None:
      await existing_channel.delete()
   # if the channel does not exist, inform the user
   else:
      await ctx.send(f'No channel named, "{channel_name}", was found')```

[nimble plume]

Use ctx.guild

[supple crescent]

remove guild = bot.guild[0]

?

[nimble plume]

Yes

[supple crescent]

alr

async def clear(ctx, channel_name):

in there?

[nimble plume]

i mean, im in test.

@bot.command(name='clear', help='delete a channel with the specified name')

nope

channel still not found

await channel.send(ctx.author.mention, "Hi! for help on how to order, do !help"), look at that

[slim ibex]

yeah it is the send

[supple crescent]

hmm

that unusal

[slim ibex]

mention_author is a kwd arg

[supple crescent]

that only started when i added the delete

[slim ibex]

put the string before ctx.author.mention

[supple crescent]

a;lroight

nope

[slim ibex]

same error?

[supple crescent]

same thing

await channel.send("Hi! for help on how to order, do !help", ctx.author.mention)

[slim ibex]

do await channel.send("...", mention_author=True)

[supple crescent]

news.

it now creates 2 private channels

and doesnt delete it

[slim ibex]

so it worked though

[supple crescent]

yeah

doesnt ping now though

[slim ibex]

also prolly shouldn't name the function open

[supple crescent]

dude help

everything is doubling

[slim ibex]

like every command?

[cerulean olive]

@slim ibex ur always here

[hoary cargo]

or utc.now

[supple crescent]

dear god yes

ill send full code

!paste

[unkempt canyon]

Pasting large amounts of code

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

[slim ibex]

2 instances of bot might be running

[supple crescent]

lemme check

[slim ibex]

you can end python processes in task manager

[supple crescent]

ok yeah phew

[supple crescent]

i though i was in trouble

[slim ibex]

what ever channel is, it is returning None

is it a variable?

show the rest of the code

[cerulean olive]

y is a 14 year old smarter than me

[slim ibex]

💀

[hoary cargo]

Get moai'd

[supple crescent]

why? just wondering

[slim ibex]

because open() is a built in function

[supple crescent]

ahh

create would work

is that bad or nah

[slim ibex]

when your code runs, it checks variables/func in the order of local, enclosed, global, builtin

[hoary cargo]

I'm curious how this didn't raised a warning in his ide

[slim ibex]

and since builtin is last, you override the open() function

[slim ibex]

lol

don't think vscode raises that stuff

pycharm def does

[hoary cargo]

Yeah

[supple crescent]

should i use pycharm or vsc?

or does it not matter

[slim ibex]

its preference

[supple crescent]

what are the advantges

[slim ibex]

im using pycharm atm, but i used vscode before

pycharm is a fully featured IDE

[supple crescent]

anyway, new error

[hoary cargo]

Some saying pycharm is harder to work with but imo vsc is harder since lacking a lot of stuff kek

[slate swan]

Vscode is lighter and has more extensions and very easy to use
Pycharm is meant specifically for python but is quite bit complex

[slim ibex]

^

[slate swan]

Ares, What does vscode lack?

[hoary cargo]

I find pycharm very easy to use

[hoary cargo]

vsc is not even an ide to begin with

[final iron]

idk why people say pycharm is complex

It's quite simple

[slate swan]

noone's saying it's an ide mate

[hoary cargo]

Venvs scare people

[slate swan]

Pycharm is too heavy for me 🏃

[final iron]

😔

[final iron]

I would have bricked my python installation so many times if I didn't use venvs

[slate swan]

as if pycharm is the only workspace using venvs

[final iron]

Everyone should be using venvs

[slate swan]

venvs*

[final iron]

No matter your development environment

[final iron]

It was a typo 🗿

[supple crescent]

alright 1 thing, i want to use await message.delete(), but that doesnt seem to work with my code

@bot.command(name="open")
async def open(ctx):
    guild = ctx.guild
    admin_role =  guild.get_role(945847161596297277)

    overwrites = {
        guild.default_role: discord.PermissionOverwrite(view_channel=False),
        ctx.author: discord.PermissionOverwrite(view_channel=True),
        admin_role: discord.PermissionOverwrite(view_channel=True),
        guild.me: discord.PermissionOverwrite(view_channel=True)
    }
    channel = await guild.create_text_channel(f"private-channel{ctx.author}", overwrites=overwrites) 
    await channel.send("Hi! for help on how to order, do !help", mention_author=True)   
    ```

[final iron]

ctx.message.delete()?

[supple crescent]

msg not defined

[slate swan]

what's the message variable?

[supple crescent]

nvm new error

c:\Users---\Desktop\DiscordBot\discordbot.py:101: RuntimeWarning: coroutine 'Message.delete' was never awaited
ctx.message.delete()
RuntimeWarning: Enable tracemalloc to get the object allocation traceback

[final iron]

Did you await it?

called it

[slate swan]

Await it

And its not an error, it's a warning

[supple crescent]

so ignore it

[slate swan]

but you need to await it since it's a coro

[hoary cargo]

wh

[slate swan]

That's what the warning says.

[hoary cargo]

If you don't await it will not work

[supple crescent]

got that part 👍

[hoary cargo]

@final iron I'm gonna ruin your whole career
I had 300 pep8 warnings before rewriting my code in one of my cogs

[slate swan]

you don't use the is statment with a class

[final iron]

I don't even know what to say

🗿

!d isinstance

[unkempt canyon]

isinstance

isinstance(object, classinfo)```
Return `True` if the *object* argument is an instance of the *classinfo* argument, or of a (direct, indirect, or [virtual](https://docs.python.org/3/glossary.html#term-abstract-base-class)) subclass thereof. If *object* is not an object of the given type, the function always returns `False`. If *classinfo* is a tuple of type objects (or recursively, other such tuples) or a [Union Type](https://docs.python.org/3/library/stdtypes.html#types-union) of multiple types, return `True` if *object* is an instance of any of the types. If *classinfo* is not a type or tuple of types and such tuples, a [`TypeError`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/exceptions.html#TypeError "TypeError") exception is raised.

Changed in version 3.10: *classinfo* can be a [Union Type](https://docs.python.org/3/library/stdtypes.html#types-union).

[supple crescent]

fuck wrong gif

whatev

[hoary cargo]

I fixed them anyway, I feel like my soul ascended

[slate swan]

Because it gets triggered on every on_message...

you'd have to cache what user is using the modmail already so a new modmail doesnt start

[final iron]

🫂

[slate swan]

And check if the author is in the cache before proceeding

[supple crescent]

@final iron it worked ily man thanks
