[maiden fable]

No

I mean, it will return a number between 0 and 1

Wait nvm

U will have to, uhhhh, use random.choice ig?

[buoyant quail]

with weights

[leaden plaza]

mhm

[leaden plaza]

but how would i make the probability of picking the win statement to 1%

[buoyant quail]

import random
print(random.choices(["win", "lose"], weights=[1, 99]))

[leaden plaza]

thankyou ❤️

[green veldt]

how to check if the bot is ratelimited

[maiden fable]

Turn on logging

[green veldt]

ok

[tardy wren]

If I turn on intends, do I have to kick out the bot and re-invite it?

[boreal ravine]

no

[quick gust]

no

just restart your bot

[tardy wren]

I did but eh, I guess Ive messed something up

[quick gust]

!intents make sure you have both

[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.

[quick gust]

in your code, and enabled in dev portal

[tardy wren]

Yeah I did that

[leaden plaza]

@client.command()
async def raffle(ctx):
    win = discord.Embed(
        description='You Won!',
    )
    lose = discord.Embed(
        description='You lose!',
    )
    member = ctx.message.author
    role = get(member.guild.roles, name="Giveaway")
    random.choices([win, lose], weights=[1, 99])
    if lose:
        await ctx.send(embed=lose)
    elif win:
        await ctx.send(embed=win)
        await member.add_roles(role)
        await ctx.send(f"{member.mention} has been assigned the role: {role.name}")```
Can someone tell me what's wrong with if statement it keep sendin you won

Sorry if i did any dumb thing, I'm new to this

[maiden fable]

Hmm, change the weights to 99, 1

[leaden plaza]

that's it??

[maiden fable]

Ig?

[leaden plaza]

i thought something is wrong with if statement

[maiden fable]

Qqi

[leaden plaza]

if lose:

[maiden fable]

Wait*

[leaden plaza]

is that fine?

[green veldt]

idk why is this happening 😥
i had made a bot with discord.py
today i added giveaway commands in it
but they dont work
but... when i comment out the other commands ( all of them leaving the giveaway one ) it works totally fine

[maiden fable]

U need to assign the randoms.choice to a variable

And need to see if that variable is lose or win

[leaden plaza]

lol = random.choices([win, lose], weights=[1, 99])

Isn't that's what he's doing?

[brisk zodiac]

[maiden fable]

!paste can be used

[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.

lol is not embed, win and lose are embed

[leaden plaza]

where?

Sorry i didn't get it

[maiden fable]

Anywhere

[maiden fable]

It's just choosing any one of those embeds tho

[green veldt]

https://paste.pythondiscord.com/wumijebuko

[buoyant quail]

so he need not ["win", "lose"]

[win, lose]

[maiden fable]

Oh wait... Missed that, sorry

[leaden plaza]

I tried that too it's not working either

[buoyant quail]

choices return list

if lol == [win]:

i think

[maiden fable]

Idk I didn't tell him about the weights arg

!d random.choice

[unkempt canyon]

random.choice

any can help me?

pd: message.reply() works fine but idk why i get this error

[leaden plaza]

❤️

[buoyant quail]

bot response totally nothing?

by me it workes

[green veldt]

It replies to $ping but not $giveaway

[slate swan]

the first argument in commands is always a Context object
And your error means that you use the say command without providing any arguments

[buoyant quail]

and so on. i just copied ur command

[slate swan]

when i put the arguments the bot give that error lol

[green veldt]

You pasted the whole code?

[buoyant quail]

no

[green veldt]

Paste

Then see

[slate swan]

well, good night

[green veldt]

K GN

[slate swan]

What error

[slate swan]

Add client.process_commands(message) in your on_message event

Or just change .event to .listen()

[green veldt]

Where

[green veldt]

Ok lemme try

[green veldt]

But

[slate swan]

but?...

[green veldt]

That's .command()

[slate swan]

No , on_message is an event

Commands and events are different thing

[green veldt]

Um

Where do i put

[slate swan]

The decorator above your on_message function...

change it to client.listen()

[slate swan]

i am benginer in Python

i create bots in node js, you know how i can create an:

if(!variable) return;

in py?

[buoyant quail]

if not variable: return

[slate swan]

if not variable : return

oh god thanks❤❤

you can add the ; too if you want it to be fancy lol

[buoyant quail]

and brackets

[slate swan]

jiji tnks

idk why not work 😂😂

[buoyant quail]

cause message is ctx

[green veldt]

Client.Event to client.Listen()?

[buoyant quail]

[unique lichen]

is it possible to make a python code like user sends a image of dog , and i want to identify and compare it with the images i have of dog breeds

[honest shoal]

yes but its not related to this channel

[unique lichen]

ctx where

[unique lichen]

uhh the user is a discord user

[slate swan]

i not use ctx before and works

[honest shoal]

which user

[honest shoal]

yes it will

[slate swan]

now idk what i change and the bot give that error lol 😂😂

[unique lichen]

like for eg u send a image , my bot inputs it and tells breed of dog

[slate swan]

not works

[honest shoal]

machine learning

and you want breed so deep learning

[unique lichen]

show line 542 etc?

ohh

[slate swan]

😂😂

[unique lichen]

Well to be more precise it was pokemon related too lol

[unique lichen]

its a self bot?

[slate swan]

No

is bot normal

[unique lichen]

self. ?

[buoyant quail]

its dpy code

[slate swan]

Bot normal

[unique lichen]

well i think message is replaced by ctx

[honest shoal]

command.Context can be any

[unique lichen]

mhmm maybe not expert

but this snippet works

async def print(ctx, arg):
    await ctx.channel.send(arg)```

[slate swan]

Yea

small L tho

[green veldt]

it worked thanks!!!!

[green veldt]

yeh i know i was on mobile

anyways thanks bye

[slate swan]

You may use some api to get the images of the dog breeds

Or do you want to compare it with local ones?

[steel void]

hey guys!

how do i make py (6, user_balance) the minimum 6 dollars and max 40% of user_balance?

[buoyant quail]

what?

[steel void]

bad way to explain it but basically

So right now I got it where you can steal between 6 dollars and their entire balance, but I want to make it where they can only steal up to 40% of user balance

[buoyant quail]

random.randint(6, int(user_balance * 0.4))

[steel void]

thank you math isnt my strong suite

[slate swan]

guys where do i put the fle of the code

file*

[steel void]

{:.2f}
``` how can I make this minutes with seconds, instead of just seconds?

[maiden fable]

To use mobile presence on your bot, just add this code to the main.py file of your bot and it will work:

async def mobile(self):
    import sys
    payload = {'op': self.IDENTIFY,'d': {'token': self.token,'properties': {'$os': sys.platform,'$browser': 'Discord iOS','$device': 'discord.py','$referrer': '','$referring_domain': ''},'compress': True,'large_threshold': 250,'v': 3}}
    if self.shard_id is not None and self.shard_count is not None:
        payload['d']['shard'] = [self.shard_id, self.shard_count]
    state = self._connection
    if state._activity is not None or state._status is not None: 
        payload["d"]["presence"] = {"status": state._status, "game": state._activity, "since": 0, "afk": False}
    if state._intents is not None:
        payload["d"]["intents"] = state._intents.value
    await self.call_hooks("before_identify", self.shard_id, initial=self._initial_identify)
    await self.send_as_json(payload)
discord.gateway.DiscordWebSocket.identify = mobile

[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

2. Tabs or Spaces?
3. Official docs on indentation

!d discord.utils.format_dt is also there

[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...

How to make commands locked to certain user ids

[maiden fable]

!d discord.ext.commands.check

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ext.commands.check

@discord.ext.commands.check(predicate)```
A decorator that adds a check to the [`Command`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.Command "discord.ext.commands.Command") or its subclasses. These checks could be accessed via [`Command.checks`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.Command.checks "discord.ext.commands.Command.checks").

These checks should be predicates that take in a single parameter taking a [`Context`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.Context "discord.ext.commands.Context"). If the check returns a `False`-like value then during invocation a [`CheckFailure`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.CheckFailure "discord.ext.commands.CheckFailure") exception is raised and sent to the [`on_command_error()`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/ext/commands/api.html#discord.discord.ext.commands.on_command_error "discord.discord.ext.commands.on_command_error") event.

If an exception should be thrown in the predicate then it should be a subclass of [`CommandError`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.CommandError "discord.ext.commands.CommandError"). Any exception not subclassed from it will be propagated while those subclassed will be sent to [`on_command_error()`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/ext/commands/api.html#discord.discord.ext.commands.on_command_error "discord.discord.ext.commands.on_command_error").

[slate swan]

That’s for owner tho?

Is it just for permissions I thought

[maiden fable]

It can be used to make custom checks

[slate swan]

What if user ids are on txt file

[maiden fable]

u gotta use open

[halcyon bison]

does

[slate swan]

how/can I have groups for slash commands (using nextcord)

[maiden fable]

Yes, look into subcommands

[slate swan]

any docs or such?

[maiden fable]

Idrk sorry

[slate swan]

I tried commands.group like a regular command, it no work :(

[slate swan]

https://github.com/nextcord/nextcord/blob/master/examples/application_commands/sub_commands.py refer to this

splendid, thanks

basically ```py
@slash_command(....)
async def cmd(...
...

@cmd.subcommand(...)
async def subcmd(..
...```

cool

how to make this

!d discord.Interaction

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Interaction

class discord.Interaction```
Represents a Discord interaction.

An interaction happens when a user does an action that needs to be notified. Current examples are slash commands and components.

New in version 2.0.

[visual island]

await interaction.response.send_message(..., ephemeral=True)

[autumn trench]

I have a command with a while loop waiting for an input to a dropdown menu. It works exactly as expected, but it keeps responding on that message even after several hours have passed. I want to allow it to timeout if a certain amount of time has passed, but it only does anything in the loop if the message is interacted with. How would I fix this?

while True:
    inter = await message.wait_for_dropdown()
    if inter.author.id==ctx.author.id:
        label = inter.select_menu.selected_options[0].label
        for idx,_ in enumerate(_pageData):
            if _pageData[idx]['DIRECTORY'] == label:
                _newDir,index = _pageData[idx]['DIRECTORY'],idx
    
        embed = discord.Embed(title=_pageData[index]['TITLE'])
        embed.set_footer(text=directory)
        if 'IMAGE' in _pageData[index]:
            embed.set_thumbnail(url=_pageData[index]['IMAGE'])
        for i in _pageData[index]['SECTIONS']:
            print(i)
            embed.add_field(name=i['NAME'], value=i['TEXT'].replace('<COMMA>',','), inline=i['INLINE'])
    
        await message.edit(embed=embed,components=[SelectMenu(placeholder=_newDir,options=listOptions)])

why isent it working?

[autumn trench]

the line for alias in command.aliases: is indented incorrectly

[austere solstice]

what should i do to solveit?

[autumn trench]

make it so that that line is aligned on the left with the line above it

[quasi stag]

where do i use bot.wait_until_ready?

[austere solstice]

@autumn trench

[autumn trench]

uhh, for starters you should probably change your token

[supple crescent]

📸

[autumn trench]

it's really easy to undo iphone scribbles

[supple crescent]

nah jk

[vocal snow]

where you want to coroutine to block till the bot is ready

[supple crescent]

ummmm askusaly thats ms pain scriibles

[autumn trench]

still

ohh that looks like a problem with the package itself actually now

i would recommend you try reinstalling discord.py

[supple crescent]

i want to make it so if sombody says !record it would copy that person next message and send it back. is that possible?

[buoyant quail]

add person to list add in on_message check if person in list: send

[supple crescent]

but how would i combine that to make it work as a cmd?

[dense swallow]

to check is something is above for example 5 characters, is it len(thing) >= 5 or just thing >= 5

[boreal ravine]

are you a beginner to python?

[boreal ravine]

> 5

[dense swallow]

no need len?

[boreal ravine]

>= checks if the obj is equal to or bigger than the obj

[dense swallow]

yeah

[boreal ravine]

you need yes

[austere solstice]

no, i am using sublime text for first time so no working

[buoyant quail]

in cmd store data to list and in on_message get it and send
what's the problem?

[boreal ravine]

sublime bad ide tbh, no type-checkers/stuff that checks your code for bugs

[austere solstice]

Ok.

[slate swan]

just use vsc

[slate swan]

Reinstall discord.py

[austere solstice]

ok

@slate swan

tried reinstalling

[heavy hound]

sublime 💀

use vsc

[austere solstice]

crashes

[heavy hound]

where do you install the discord py

through the cmd or ?\

[austere solstice]

C:\Python37-32

[austere solstice]

also this ss

[heavy hound]

so you downloaded the discord py from the network

[austere solstice]

i downloaded it using
pip install discord

[heavy hound]

BRO

😱

you should do pip install discord.py

[austere solstice]

anything bad?

[austere solstice]

[rotund cipher]

Does someone know what happened here? The loop runs for a long time and all of a sudden I get this

[brisk zodiac]

But can you help me

[heavy hound]

for hell sake please learn py first before you start coding d.py

i cant spoonfeed you like a mother

[rotund cipher]

I just use json.loads(response.text) for the api

[heavy hound]

can i have the code

[rotund cipher]

Cant copy from phone. 1 sec

[wanton cipher]

missing a :

[heavy hound]

k but i suggest you to code in pc or maybe get a keyboard for your phone

[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.

[rotund cipher]

I do lol

[heavy hound]

your hand will be pain after a few coding

[rotund cipher]

Just saw the error from the phone

def get_block():
response = requests.get("https://chain.so/api/v2/get_info/BTC")
data = json.loads(response.text)
block = data["data"]["blocks"]
return block

[heavy hound]

nope im bad on api and json stuff

[rotund cipher]

ok

[boreal ravine]

VSC doesn't even take that much ram

[rotund cipher]

ty, i missed it at first

was the api empty then?

[unreal spoke]

Yes

[vocal snow]

https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/stable/ext/commands/commands.html

[pliant gulch]

Emacs ❌

[sage otter]

Text editor isn’t really a what’s better. It’s a what suits your needs and what’s more comfortable to you as a developer.

[pliant gulch]

VSC can be an IDE or can be a regular text editor

That's the power that comes with extensions

Same with sublime, etc

Same with neovim, emacs etc

[sage otter]

I beg to differ.

[supple crescent]

Idk why this happens, I leave my computer alone and the bot breaks. Only like half the commands work and idk why. I have not edited the code

[pliant gulch]

How so? Does the built-in source control, or the built-in debugger stop VSC from being any less than an IDE? What about the linters, the type checkers? What about all the other things you could have on VSC?

What about the terminal? Does the built-in terminal make VSC stop before anything close to an IDE?

[sage otter]

we can argue about it in #editors-ides in a sec Andy. I’m not willing to get slapped by a mod over a text editor/ide debate

[pliant gulch]

Sure

[sage otter]

So what you're trying to say is. After you leave your computer alone for a while half your commands stop working.

[supple crescent]

Yup

[sage otter]

Is it really half or is it all of them.

[supple crescent]

Most

Like 1/3

[sage otter]

Never seen that before.

[supple crescent]

And !help just defaults

I want to try smthing

[austere solstice]

New to python?

[left crater]

get pycharm community

its free

replit is terrible

[austere solstice]

Or vs code

[hoary cargo]

[scarlet rune]

h

[hoary cargo]

vsc is not really newbies friendly unlike pycharm, it's "supporting" you more in analyzing your code

[sage otter]

Why do people feel the need to shill their favorite text editor and ide in here after seeing someone’s screen shotted code.

[sage otter]

You have that backwards

[hoary cargo]

yeah mb

kek

pycharm is the supporting one

[sage otter]

I mean the newbie friendly part

Pycharm definitely isn’t newbie friendly

[hoary cargo]

i find pycharm very easy to use

maybe because i use it for almost 2 years

[left crater]

cuz replit is gay

[sage otter]

It’s an online ide

As long as he’s not trying to host his bot with it

It’s fine. He can write code where he wants

[brisk zodiac]

yes pls help me

[left crater]

learn python first

[hoary cargo]

[sage otter]

2 years != newbie

Can I have two logs (logging module) files for one code ?

[hoary cargo]

well, at some point i was a newbie myself, indeed i had some headaches trying to understand how pycharm works, but eventually i got it, you can't avoid stuff just because it's hard, there are many useful tools in there that can help you at any level

[brisk zodiac]

but it said this File "main.py", line 25

[slate swan]

my head hurts after seeing such errors

[spring flax]

Lol

[pliant gulch]

With pycharm though you get like 50 different tools you never asked for, plus their type-checker is garbage. I'd rather get a fresh neovim config that I can soup up to do the same things pycharm does, except no bloat and with tools I actually use

Also no forced venv

[slate swan]

first of all on_message commands are smh
then you dont know python, even more smh
now you're pasting code like text, thats really annoying

[left crater]

[slate swan]

rip me, I get too open about my thoughts

anyways, bye

[sage otter]

When you're a beginner you're supposed to avoid things that’s hard so you can make your experience smooth. You work your way into harder things.

Here's how to format Python code on Discord:

```py

```

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

[slim ibex]

and I would use process_commands at the end of your on message listener

!d discord.ext.commands.Bot.process_commands

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ext.commands.Bot.process\_commands

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

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

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

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

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

u do know that the on_command_error func takes two args, right?

[final iron]

logger.setLevel

🗿

[spring flax]

what does it take?

[maiden fable]

ctx, error

[spring flax]

ctx, error?

[maiden fable]

Yea

[spring flax]

wait it does?

[quick gust]

yeah

[maiden fable]

lol

For some reason it doesn't work

[quick gust]

smh

[spring flax]

okay nvm it does

[maiden fable]

not even commands.on_command_error

[quick gust]

weird

[spring flax]

it should be this ^ no idea why it's not working (discord.on_command_error)

[maiden fable]

idk

[quick gust]

discord.ext.commands.Bot.on_command_error

!d discord.ext.commands.Bot.on_command_error

[spring flax]

!d discord.ext.commands.Bot.on_command_error

[maiden fable]

Wait what tf

[maiden fable]

see the second one lol

[quick gust]

yeah

[vast gale]

just discord.py things

[slate swan]

The first one is used inside the bot object when you subclass it iirc 🏃

[vast gale]

well, all instances of it

but the second one is an event reference except idk why it's under the main lib

[cosmic agate]

how to add oop to content message properly

[slate swan]

I mean the event is usable without the event/listen decorator```py
class MyBot(Bot):
def init(self):
...

async def on_command_error(self, context,error):
   ...

[slate swan]

Wdym by adding OOP?

[cosmic agate]

like adding variables

[cloud dawn]

message.somethingextralikethisorjustnameitcanalsobeafunction = "yes"

[cosmic agate]

?

[slim ibex]

I rename it to _on_command_error 🗿

[cosmic agate]

so how to add it on a bot message

[slate swan]

Will raise an attribute error

[cosmic agate]

hmm

[cloud dawn]

No?

You can just create attributes.

[slate swan]

setattr fails too

[cosmic agate]

?

[cloud dawn]

eh?

!e ```py
class Object:
pass

a = Object()
a.somefield = "value"

print(a.somefield)

[unkempt canyon]

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

value

[slate swan]

Idk mate why don't you try with some message object

[pliant gulch]

Because Message is slotted

[cloud dawn]

Pass the variable.

[cosmic agate]

no one helping

sed

[slate swan]

I see, but subclassing the Context.message would allow adding attribute in init dunder or a property right?

[cloud dawn]

!global

[unkempt canyon]

When adding functions or classes to a program, it can be tempting to reference inaccessible variables by declaring them as global. Doing this can result in code that is harder to read, debug and test. Instead of using globals, pass variables or objects as parameters and receive return values.

Instead of writing

def update_score():
    global score, roll
    score = score + roll
update_score()

do this instead

def update_score(score, roll):
    return score + roll
score = update_score(score, roll)

For in-depth explanations on why global variables are bad news in a variety of situations, see this Stack Overflow answer.

[slate swan]

Which is being updated only inside that function's scope , not globally

use a botvar

[pliant gulch]

Sure, if you subclass it you can do pretty much anything

[slate swan]

!botvar same as your code

[unkempt canyon]

Python allows you to set custom attributes to most objects, like your bot! By storing things as attributes of the bot object, you can access them anywhere you access your bot. In the discord.py library, these custom attributes are commonly known as "bot variables" and can be a lifesaver if your bot is divided into many different files. An example on how to use custom attributes on your bot is shown below:

bot = commands.Bot(command_prefix="!")
# Set an attribute on our bot
bot.test = "I am accessible everywhere!"

@bot.command()
async def get(ctx: commands.Context):
    """A command to get the current value of `test`."""
    # Send what the test attribute is currently set to
    await ctx.send(ctx.bot.test)

@bot.command()
async def setval(ctx: commands.Context, *, new_text: str):
    """A command to set a new value of `test`."""
    # Here we change the attribute to what was specified in new_text
    bot.test = new_text

This all applies to cogs as well! You can set attributes to self as you wish.

Be sure not to overwrite attributes discord.py uses, like cogs or users. Name your attributes carefully!

[slate swan]

[left crater]

[slate swan]

i knoww but how do i make an embed?

JSON data?

and if heistar == "": (double string)

what's the traceback

btw

oh yeah i had this problem with my bots alot of times, idk why that not working

heistar is a private variable dude, wait no it isnt

[hoary cargo]

good practice, kick mee6 and dyno from your servers

[slate swan]

imagine using strings instead of jso or arrays 😭

!d discord.ext.commands.has_role

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ext.commands.has\_role

@discord.ext.commands.has_role(item)```
A [`check()`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.check "discord.ext.commands.check") that is added that checks if the member invoking the command has the role specified via the name or ID specified.

If a string is specified, you must give the exact name of the role, including caps and spelling.

If an integer is specified, you must give the exact snowflake ID of the role.

If the message is invoked in a private message context then the check will return `False`.

This check raises one of two special exceptions, [`MissingRole`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.MissingRole "discord.ext.commands.MissingRole") if the user is missing a role, or [`NoPrivateMessage`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.NoPrivateMessage "discord.ext.commands.NoPrivateMessage") if it is used in a private message. Both inherit from [`CheckFailure`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.CheckFailure "discord.ext.commands.CheckFailure").

Changed in version 1.1: Raise [`MissingRole`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.MissingRole "discord.ext.commands.MissingRole") or [`NoPrivateMessage`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.NoPrivateMessage "discord.ext.commands.NoPrivateMessage") instead of generic [`CheckFailure`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.CheckFailure "discord.ext.commands.CheckFailure")

[slate swan]

its alright, welp

[slate swan]

just make the server bot-less

[maiden fable]

Will be fun to see what happens when every mod goes to sleep or is AFK 👀

[slate swan]

no bot is good enough to self-moderate a server anyways

nor can it be

[maiden fable]

At least it can prevent spam and delete messages with banned words

[slate swan]

well it can, but imagine, I'm in a server with more than 400k members (with only 1 bot) and all the bot does is handle reports and kick/ban/warn and send dms to members on command, like ew bot

[maiden fable]

Hmmm, SUPER under utilized

[slate swan]

and they complain that trolls are increasing everyday ;-;

like what

[maiden fable]

Lmaoo

[hoary cargo]

false, i've just finished my automod bot, detects scam links, banned words, accounts created too recents are banned it's easy to set up a good moderation bot if it's just for one guild

[maiden fable]

Lmao

[slate swan]

and that is what is called a waste of time ffs

You can add something which bans users with pycord or in their status or aboutme too

lol

[maiden fable]

Rip someone who created a discord account just to join a support server for help

[maiden fable]

Bots can't access About Me's, forgot?

[slate swan]

oh true

[pliant gulch]

If your bot used rin you could've gotten anti-raids as well

😼

[maiden fable]

andy

[slate swan]

Collectors hmm

[maiden fable]

How's rin doing?

[pliant gulch]

My motivation is wilting

[hoary cargo]

the measures are just for my main server, for the support server i don't have those kekw, since my attention is to moderate my public server mainly

[maiden fable]

Hold on to it!

[slate swan]

btw, how many choices can a parameter take in slashes?

[hoary cargo]

it's not waste of time tho, you always learn new stuff by expanding your filed of knowledge

[quaint epoch]

what would a snipe command do exactly?

[slate swan]

well, cant argue

[maiden fable]

infinite? read the docs

[hoary cargo]

catch the deleted message

[slate swan]

too lazy, search and tell, pleeeeaseee hun

[quaint epoch]

from a certain user, or message id?

[slate swan]

discord doesn't like it, but shows the latest deleted message

[quaint epoch]

'ight imma not

[maiden fable]

S. M. H.

[quaint epoch]

don't want bring down the gods wrath on me

[slate swan]

Alters according to developer's choice

[slate swan]

thanks

[boreal ravine]

@quaint epoch so you were underage last year

[quaint epoch]

for what?

[maiden fable]

Okay, it doesn't say anything in developer docs, afais

[slate swan]

yeah

[hoary cargo]

though how could you use snipe with a message id, you can't copy the id if the message is deleted unless your on_message_delete triggers and send the message with the id on a log channel

[slate swan]

I checked before you answered

[quaint epoch]

im still confused on the usage of a snipe command

[maiden fable]

Then why did u tell me to check 🤦

[maiden fable]

It gets the last deleted message

[quaint epoch]

on channel or guild?

[maiden fable]

channel

[slate swan]

nvm, another issue

[boreal ravine]

both

[hoary cargo]

depends on you

[quaint epoch]

alr

got it thanks

[maiden fable]

Mind explaining or u want me to read it from yr brain?

[quaint epoch]

I should be paying attention to geography but what kind of game dev needs to know geography on their resume?

help anyone?

i made a basic ship command

which works fine

but im trying to rig it so if my friend and his crush are shipped then it defaults to 100%

[slate swan]

My Lack of Understanding prohibits me from understand that

[regal pulsar]

that doesnt seem to work tho

[slate swan]

lmaoooooooooo

[regal pulsar]

i have to finish it before his crush comes back home from vacation ;/

and i cant figure out whats wrong

[slate swan]

rip lemme check

[regal pulsar]

thanks 🙏

[slate swan]

tbh, thats really such a long ship command, you didnt have to make it that long ;-;

[regal pulsar]

yeah i needed to add gifs to the embed too ;/

and since i set the embed values before i make the embed

and the gif after i make it

that complicates things

[slate swan]

okay I'm having a stroke trying to understand

[regal pulsar]

lmao

[maiden fable]

You want to play skribbl?

[regal pulsar]

sorry im a bit new to py ;/

so code's a bit messy

[slate swan]

cant rn, got an important call which I cant miss so, later, I'm sorry

[maiden fable]

Okay

[regal pulsar]

outermost if statement checks if the 2 people mentioned are my friend and his crush

if it isnt it runs like normal

[slate swan]

check that at first, easiest way

then return the send method

[regal pulsar]

yeah i did

if (
        768393728163053619 not in (person1.id, person2.id)
        and 536479129025904651 not in (person1.id, person2.id)
    ):

[hoary cargo]

ayo

[slate swan]

imagine, just tell your friend to tell her that he loves her, save the pain
plus its a lot more realistic

"thee"

reptilian Shakespeare?

[regal pulsar]

yeah im using async functions and await in my code

[slate swan]

lmao

[regal pulsar]

i get how that works

and i already have decorators for limiting commands to people with certain perms

im not at home and on a shit laptop that takes like 5 seconds to register text

so its a bit hard to debug

[slate swan]

@maiden fable choices can only take 25 fields 😔

[maiden fable]

Oh cool

[hoary cargo]

Reptilian

[slate swan]

wait, i didnt know it yerlikaya 😔

[merry charm]

check who executed the command and who the author is

[slate swan]

"who executed the command" and "author" means the same thing

[merry charm]

@regal pulsar

if person1.id in [friendsid, crushid]:
  if person2.id in [friendsid, crushid]:
    ship_percent == 101

[merry charm]

right

[slate swan]

😭 They don't understand, I just told them to tell their friend that he loves her, that's more real

[merry charm]

use discord bot rng to your advantage

😈

[slate swan]

imagine the bot malfunctioning and sending 0 percent

[outer parcel]

does anyone have any idea for a currency bot

[slate swan]

no

[manic wing]

no

[slate swan]

caeeedennn

[manic wing]

ahsleytyyy

[merry charm]

LOL

[slate swan]

lmao

[merry charm]

if person1.id in [friendsid, crushid]:
  if person2.id in [friendsid, crushid]:
    ship_percent == 101

@slate swan fixed it i think

idk why the args are person1 and person2

confusing asf

[frozen elk]

TypeError: Errors.on_slash_command_error() takes 2 positional arguments but 3 were given

[manic wing]

how are you

[slate swan]

does your stupidity really cut out the part where its your problem, at least tell the error

[slate swan]

you arent in a cog?

[slate swan]

I'm fine, and you?

[hoary cargo]

ruined

[frozen elk]

no im in cog

[manic wing]

not too bad

[slate swan]

try typehinting

[merry charm]

i have an idea

i want to make an "error log"

but should i

bc its rlly easy

but idk if its a good idea

@slate swan

like when an error goes off

it gets logged to a file with the error, error message, and time the error was called

and then ppl in the owner ids can check it

[quick gust]

why isn't that a good idea, I have it

[merry charm]

idk

im just bored

[quick gust]

then do it

[merry charm]

and thinking of anything

ok doing it rn

[slate swan]

well its easy af, and I dont see a downside of that, so, just make it, would be helpful

[honest vessel]

the war has begun 😦

[merry charm]

but should i log it in a json file for later use, or just send it to a specific channel so i can see it

[honest vessel]

@stray carbonconverrt message to lower chars

[slate swan]

send it to a channel and store it too

[merry charm]

kk

okok

[honest vessel]

string.lower()

no

message.content

[slate swan]

string*,*lower

imagine

[honest vessel]

if 'heist' in message.content.lower()

lol

[merry charm]

string.content.lower().contains

[cold sonnet]

string.content?

[merry charm]

message

[honest vessel]

string. was just to mean its a string xD

str().lower()

[merry charm]

@slate swan i have an idea

[cold sonnet]

why call str

guys

[maiden fable]

cz it is required?

[honest vessel]

its just example of what datatype

[cold sonnet]

?

[daring olive]

ashley this message

[honest vessel]

string.lower()
str().lower()
"hellO".lower()

[daring olive]

and this message, are both inappropriate and break our rules

[slate swan]

str is an object itself mate

You don't need to create an instance

[merry charm]

@slate swan should i format it like

{
"errormessagehere": "timeoferror"
}

[cold sonnet]

oh well that way

[honest vessel]

@slate swanlol am just giving examples of .lower()

[cold sonnet]

right, you can make an instance

[slate swan]

ah gotcha

[honest vessel]

@merry charmif u want a dict yes

@slate swancause i said string.lower() and he thought he should type string.lower("H3Lo")

[slate swan]

Sidenote: instead of saving the time as a string you may utilise the datetime library to save a datetime object

[slate swan]

Yea I understand

[honest vessel]

@daring olivehand out a warning!

[merry charm]

but i could sort it by time if i go

{
  "time": "errormsg"
}

[honest vessel]

well its key,value so

[daring olive]

we don't moderate on command ;)

[honest vessel]

tsss you could be equal tho

[tardy atlas]

How to reset the value of a variable? sql

[cold sonnet]

he asked nicely :p

[merry charm]

i need to get est though, i will use datetime, just its always in utc and i dont understand it

[cold sonnet]

kappa

[slate swan]

!d datetime.datetime.estnow

[unkempt canyon]

Not in my house!

No documentation found for the requested symbol.

[honest vessel]

huh? you mean replace a value in a row?

[slate swan]

1 moment

[merry charm]

.est.now?

datetime.datetime.est.now()

[honest vessel]

!d datetime.datetime.now

[unkempt canyon]

datetime.datetime.now

classmethod datetime.now(tz=None)```
Return the current local date and time.

If optional argument *tz* is `None` or not specified, this is like [`today()`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/datetime.html#datetime.datetime.today "datetime.datetime.today"), but, if possible, supplies more precision than can be gotten from going through a [`time.time()`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/time.html#time.time "time.time") timestamp (for example, this may be possible on platforms supplying the C `gettimeofday()` function).

If *tz* is not `None`, it must be an instance of a [`tzinfo`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/datetime.html#datetime.tzinfo "datetime.tzinfo") subclass, and the current date and time are converted to *tz*’s time zone.

This function is preferred over [`today()`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/datetime.html#datetime.datetime.today "datetime.datetime.today") and [`utcnow()`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/datetime.html#datetime.datetime.utcnow "datetime.datetime.utcnow").

[slate swan]

1 minute I'll be right back

@honest vessel will this work? datetime.datetime.est.now()

[honest vessel]

[tardy atlas]

When the warnas reach 3/3, it is necessary that the variable be reset, and on a new

[slate swan]

You wanna make sure that the ship is 100%?

should i save the datetime as an interger or a string

[regal pulsar]

hmm i think ive tried it

[merry charm]

@slate swan

[regal pulsar]

but ill try again

Just save the object itself

and change it when you send it
