[final iron]

No it's not

Take a picture of the console

[stiff nexus]

bruh

[slate swan]

Ok nvm its fixed thanks u, im proud of u sasuke

Thats my little brother..

[slim ibex]

What does the linter say when it complains about defaulting to Nond

[kindred epoch]

yes

[cold sonnet]

!d discord.TextChannel.permissions_for

[unkempt canyon]

discord.TextChannel.permissions\_for

permissions_for(obj, /)```
Handles permission resolution for the [`Member`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/api.html#discord.Member "discord.Member") or [`Role`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/api.html#discord.Role "discord.Role").

This function takes into consideration the following cases...

[cold sonnet]

pass in your member

get permissions

check for permissions

change outcome

[kindred epoch]

but thats the users permission in the text channel they are in?

[cold sonnet]

well yes

!d discord.Guild probably has that too

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Guild

class discord.Guild```
Represents a Discord guild.

This is referred to as a “server” in the official Discord UI.

x == y Checks if two guilds are equal.

x != y Checks if two guilds are not equal.

hash(x) Returns the guild’s hash.

str(x) Returns the guild’s name.

[kindred epoch]

nah it doesnt

well there is ctx.author.guild_permissions but it returns as permissions value

!d disnake.Member.guild_permissions

[unkempt canyon]

disnake.Member.guild\_permissions

property guild_permissions```
Returns the member’s guild permissions.

This only takes into consideration the guild permissions and not most of the implied permissions or any of the channel permission overwrites. For 100% accurate permission calculation, please use [`abc.GuildChannel.permissions_for()`](https://docs.disnake.dev/en/latest/api.html#disnake.abc.GuildChannel.permissions_for "disnake.abc.GuildChannel.permissions_for").

This does take into consideration guild ownership and the administrator implication.

[cold sonnet]

isn't permissions a tuple?

looks something like
[(administrator, False), (connect, True)]

[kindred epoch]

yea but it returns in a disnake.Permissions.value

idk why its doing that

[native wedge]

Its repl.it

[final iron]

Ok and?

[native wedge]

He can't send it in full

[cold sonnet]

returns this

[final iron]

Why?

[kindred epoch]

ye you have to do ```py
ctx.author.guild_permissions.send_messages

[cold sonnet]

yes

👍

either my bus is too late or I was too deep in this convo

[kindred epoch]

so @slate swan you can do something like this to check the authors permissions

[spring flax]

can anyone guide me on how to make a bot notify when a streamer goes live on, say, Youtube/twitch

[tacit storm]

well first, you can use both the twitch and youtube api to figure out if the streamer goes live, then use a db to store that streamer’s id then make a command for it to say when the streamer is online

[honest vessel]

check stream often and when its live send msg to discord and set a variable like live=1 and set it live=0 when its found offline again this helps prevent it spam when it checks stream that its live after each time it still live etc...

so bot will only alert if live=0 and stream is live

[spring flax]

why db?

that's nessecary?

[honest vessel]

myself uses database and has a column live wich i set 1 or 0 and updates this depend if its online or offline and when it had 0 and puts 1 it sends to discord

[tacit storm]

^
it’s optional but it’s gonna be more helpful

[honest vessel]

i other hand has alot of streamers and uses dlive twitch youtube

[spring flax]

so I use requests right?

there's no module for this?

[tacit storm]

no.

requests is blocking

if anything, use aiohttp.

it’s made for async projects

[honest vessel]

aiohttp

[spring flax]

i mean it'll have concerning ratelimits

bots do not have access to the search feature on discord for one

maybe it puts the message count in a db

[tacit storm]

im not sure the best way but you can look through the source of python bot to try to see what it does

[spring flax]

yeah python bot uses a database

[tardy atlas]

online = len(list(filter(lambda x: x.status == discord.Status.online, mbrs)))                        
        print(f"{online}")
        idle = len(list(filter(lambda x: x.status == discord.Status.idle, mbrs)))
        offline = len(list(filter(lambda x: x.status == discord.Status.offline, mbrs))) 
        dnd = len(list(filter(lambda x: x.status == discord.Status.dnd, mbrs)))  

Shows the wrong number of people on the server (by status)?

[spring flax]

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.

[tardy atlas]

@spring flax The team is in cogs, should I write intents there?

[spring flax]

yeah that's likely the best way though

[spring flax]

no do it in your main file for bot construction

[spring flax]

not sure if you saw it or not but bots can't use the search feature

and no i don't think it'd be that buggy

[tardy atlas]

What?

[spring flax]

what?

[tardy atlas]

in main.py there are intents, but in serverinfo cogs, it doesn't show correctly there?

[lyric tusk]

is thear a way i can send a message in a chat when some add the bot like the guild id

[spring flax]

what are yor intents?

[kindred epoch]

i mean big db's like postgres will be able to handle that with ease, and using it asynchronously should work fine

[spring flax]

!d disnake.on_guild_join

[unkempt canyon]

disnake.on\_guild\_join

disnake.on_guild_join(guild)```
Called when a [`Guild`](https://docs.disnake.dev/en/latest/api.html#disnake.Guild "disnake.Guild") is either created by the [`Client`](https://docs.disnake.dev/en/latest/api.html#disnake.Client "disnake.Client") or when the [`Client`](https://docs.disnake.dev/en/latest/api.html#disnake.Client "disnake.Client") joins a guild.

This requires [`Intents.guilds`](https://docs.disnake.dev/en/latest/api.html#disnake.Intents.guilds "disnake.Intents.guilds") to be enabled.

[lyric tusk]

ty

[kindred epoch]

🤷‍♂️ but maybe try making a whole new connection just for that if you think its slowing down

[safe herald]

whats the difference between bot.command and command.comm and?

[tardy atlas]

Defult intents

[spring flax]

bot.command is for main file and commands.command is for cogs

[safe herald]

[stiff nexus]

how do i do pagination in buttons?

[kindred epoch]

idk depends on what u are doing

[lost lichen]

how can i make it send a message if an emoji is reacted with? I cant put await inside of a check, and i cant async the check otherwise it doesnt read the emoji reaction...

using discord.py

[kindred epoch]

why do you have ctx.bot?

[lost lichen]

uhh im not sure, i used the template from the docs, should i remove the bot?

[kindred epoch]

its just bot not ctx.bot so yes remove it, and the check function is really wrong, the check function is for checking if the reactions are from the list and the user is the author

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

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

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

[lost lichen]

i have multiple emojis that i want to do different things based on which emoji was reacted with

[kindred epoch]

so you have to do something like this

def check(reaction, user):
    return user == ctx.author and str(reaction.emoji) in list_of_emojis

[kindred epoch]

yea so check which emoji they reacted with and then make if statemnts under the wait_for

instead of just making them in the check function

[lost lichen]

put the if statements inside of the try:?

[kindred epoch]

yes inside the try and under the wait_for

try:
    reaction, user = await client.wait_for('reaction_add', timeout=60.0, check=check)
    #if statements

[slate swan]

uh, how do I upload animated emojis

[pallid escarp]

so this works when i say it but i want others to say it and it will also reply to [e-mail] async def on_message(ctx): if ctx.content == "Hello": await ctx.reply("Hey!")
why does it only listen to me?

[slate swan]

hi

[lost lichen]

I did that and now the bot wont print if the emoji is reacted with, and the user in the try is not being used..

[slate swan]

is there one? I dont think so

[unkempt canyon]

disnake.on\_invite\_create

disnake.on_invite_create(invite)```
Called when an [`Invite`](https://docs.disnake.dev/en/latest/api.html#disnake.Invite "disnake.Invite") is created. You must have the [`manage_channels`](https://docs.disnake.dev/en/latest/api.html#disnake.Permissions.manage_channels "disnake.Permissions.manage_channels") permission to receive this.

New in version 1.3.

Note

There is a rare possibility that the [`Invite.guild`](https://docs.disnake.dev/en/latest/api.html#disnake.Invite.guild "disnake.Invite.guild") and [`Invite.channel`](https://docs.disnake.dev/en/latest/api.html#disnake.Invite.channel "disnake.Invite.channel") attributes will be of [`Object`](https://docs.disnake.dev/en/latest/api.html#disnake.Object "disnake.Object") rather than the respective models.

This requires [`Intents.invites`](https://docs.disnake.dev/en/latest/api.html#disnake.Intents.invites "disnake.Intents.invites") to be enabled.

[slim ibex]

I usually use the member id, xp, level, guild id, number of infractions, etc

[slate swan]

whaaa

[slim ibex]

but for my new bot, I am handling infractions differently

[kindred epoch]

print reaction

[slate swan]

[slim ibex]

I’m making a separate infractions table with all the information of an infraction that include infraction id, target id/name, issuer id/name, etc

I use a helper infractions file to handle all this stuff

[lost lichen]

what do you mean?

[slim ibex]

and I’m my infraction class are methods to grab infraction, show expired infractions, etc

[kindred epoch]

put print(reaction) after the wait_for

[pallid escarp]

so this works when i say it but i want others to say it and it will also reply to [e-mail] async def on_message(ctx): if ctx.content == "Hello": await ctx.reply("Hey!")
why does it only listen to me?

[kindred epoch]

the same way you make normal emojis i think

[slate swan]

Like I convert the animated image to Bytes and stuff, but when I use the create_custom_emoji method, it just returns unsupported image type, it works for normal images though

[slim ibex]

on_message doesn’t take ctx

[slate swan]

@kindred epoch

[slim ibex]

I’m going to work on that one. I might just make the infraction id column auto increment

[pallid escarp]

The Bot will only respond to me but i want it so it responds to other people @bot.event async def on_message(message): if message.content == "Hello": await message.channel.send("Hey!")

[slim ibex]

generating a long random number might be interesting when an infraction is created

[slate swan]

you do know that you can name the parameter anything

[pallid escarp]

@slim ibex see it works when i say Hello but if you were to say it it wouldnt work

[safe herald]

is it possible to make the bot say something every specific day?

[slim ibex]

I also use an enum to classify infraction severity

class InfractionType(Enum):
    NOTE = 0
    WARN = 1
    …

@slate swan

[safe herald]

so every 25th of feb etc it says something?

[lost lichen]

doesnt print anything, and the user variable is not being used, could it be ignoring my reactions because it thinks im not the author?

[slim ibex]

🗿but just put message as that’s what docs say

[boreal ravine]

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

[slim ibex]

yeah enums are helpful

[kindred epoch]

are you using the command and reactiong?

[slate swan]

docs
self-implementation

[slim ibex]

mind you, this bot I’m making is for a single server lmao

[lost lichen]

yes

[kindred epoch]

no idea then

[slate swan]

thanks

[slim ibex]

I might be overdoing it but, I can use these features if I ever make another bot I intend to distribute to multiple servers

[lost lichen]

the response time below is not discord bot api response time btw

[honest shoal]

how to purge messages of a specific user?

[boreal ravine]

anyone

[kindred epoch]

try changing reaction.emoji to str(reaction.emoji)

[lost lichen]

in the if statements? ok

[boreal ravine]

!d discord.TextChannel.purge takes a check kwarg, you can use a lambda for this

[unkempt canyon]

discord.TextChannel.purge

await purge(*, limit=100, check=..., before=None, after=None, around=None, oldest_first=False, bulk=True)```
This function is a [*coroutine*](https://docs.python.org/3/library/asyncio-task.html#coroutine).

Purges a list of messages that meet the criteria given by the predicate `check`. If a `check` is not provided then all messages are deleted without discrimination.

You must have the [`manage_messages`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/api.html#discord.Permissions.manage_messages "discord.Permissions.manage_messages") permission to delete messages even if they are your own. The [`read_message_history`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/api.html#discord.Permissions.read_message_history "discord.Permissions.read_message_history") permission is also needed to retrieve message history.

Examples

Deleting bot’s messages...

[kindred epoch]

yes

[lost lichen]

nope, still nothing, it just times out

[honest shoal]

mhm, I want to make a user command using disnake which will purge for a specific user

[kindred epoch]

remove user and change bot to ctx.bot in the wait_for

[lost lichen]

like i said before, the user in the try is not being used either...

ok let me try that

[lost lichen]

printed the whole reaction, so it reaches the print(reaction) in the try but doesnt go to the if statements

i will try removing the str()

yeah nothing, still doesnt go to the if statement after that

[kindred epoch]

hm

[kindred epoch]

can you show me ur current code

[lost lichen]

(it doesnt print reached else either)

[sick birch]

You might have to str(reaction.emoji)

[final iron]

!d discord.Reaction.emoji

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Reaction.emoji

The reaction emoji. May be a custom emoji, or a unicode emoji.

[lost lichen]

let me try that again, i had done str(reaction.emoji) then removed it a few mins ago because it still wasnt working

[final iron]

Try what robin suggested

It won't always return a string

[lost lichen]

nope, just returns the emoji AKA print(reaction)

[kindred epoch]

instead of printing reaction, can you print reaction.emoji?

[red nest]

you have to put the if str(reaction.emoji) outside of the try:

[lost lichen]

doesnt print anything

[kindred epoch]

wtf

[pallid escarp]

The Bot will only respond to me but i want it so it responds to other people @bot.event async def on_message(message): if message.content == "Hello": await message.channel.send("Hey!")

[lost lichen]

nope, still doesnt do anything

[kindred epoch]

huh?

[lost lichen]

doesnt print anything

[red nest]

oh no sorry

i made an error i will correct it

        str(reaction.emoji) == 'your emoji'```

put that before the try

[lost lichen]

it is before the try..

[kindred epoch]

???

[red nest]

then show the entire code please

[red nest]

it checks the reaction if you don't know

[kindred epoch]

thats literally what he has

[lost lichen]

entire code

[red nest]

ok thanks

[slate swan]

Hello

I have a problem with command

He just not work

[lost lichen]

paste the command code so we can see it

[red nest]

yeah

[unkempt canyon]

Hey @slate swan! I noticed you posted a seemingly valid Discord API token in your message and have removed your message. This means that your token has been compromised. Please change your token immediately at: https://discordapp.com/developers/applications/me

Feel free to re-post it with the token removed. If you believe this was a mistake, please let us know!

[slate swan]

Oh

[lost lichen]

dont post your discord bot token

[red nest]

you have to put three ` before and after the code

[lost lichen]

you should keep the token in a seperate file and read it btw

[slate swan]

import discord

client = discord.Client()

@client.event
async def on_ready():
print('We have logged in as {0.user}'.format(client))

@client.event
async def on_message(message):
if message.author == client.user:
return

if message.content.startswith('@alpine bobcat'):
    await message.channel.send('Hello! My prefix is +.Command list +help')

client.run('token')

On replit he worked

[red nest]

are you getting any error?

[slate swan]

No,he just not work

[red nest]

ok...

[slate swan]

on pydroid command not work

Bot just online

[red nest]

ok

so you should type @alpine bobcat

in the chat

so that your bot responds with it

[lost lichen]

yep, thats what your code is looking for

[red nest]

yes

[slate swan]

I type

[red nest]

message.content.startswith checks if the message starts with it

[red nest]

ok

try replacing @alpine bobcat with anything else to check if it works or not

[lost lichen]

i think what they are trying to do is if the bot gets mentioned, it replies with the prefix and help command, correct?

[tacit token]

Is it allowed to make a music bot?

[red nest]

yes

[slate swan]

Still doesn't work

[red nest]

hmm

[tacit token]

o, ok but rythem and groovy why dead?

[slate swan]

Yes

[red nest]

do you have everything installed (like discord.py)

[red nest]

i think because youtube forced the devs to take it down

[lost lichen]

import discord

client = discord.Client()

@client.event
async def on_ready():
    print('We have logged in as {0.user}'.format(client))

@client.event
async def on_message(message):
    if message.author == client.user:
        return

    if message.content.startswith('Hi there!'):
        await message.channel.send('Hello! My prefix is +.Command list +help')

client.run('token')

with this if you type Hi there! it should respond, try doing that to make sure it responds

[lost lichen]

because rhythm and groovy were making a profit, with their subscriptions

[tawdry panther]

Ahha thanks

[red nest]

yeah this should work @slate swan

[slate swan]

Ok i go to test this

Client

imagine still using Client

[red nest]

you can if you want

everyone has a different opinion

[lost lichen]

does it work? yes it does, so its not "wrong" to use it...

[slate swan]

Client is soooooo old

[lost lichen]

and?

[slate swan]

and doesnt support Commands

and cogs

[kindred epoch]

i define by bot var as bucko

[slate swan]

lmao

[red nest]

yeah but using client can be good for beginners

[lost lichen]

any ideas btw?

[slate swan]

no?

[red nest]

i looked for errors, but i did not find any errors

[slate swan]

Error

[red nest]

oh

so that means discord.py is not installed

replit has discord.py by default, that's why it didn't work

[slate swan]

He installed

[kindred epoch]

huh????

what are you saying?

[kindred epoch]

theres an invisible character after that parenthesis that you need to remove

[lost lichen]

its a unicode character error, it detects a space after that  

[red nest]

ok

so just delete spaces until the )

[lost lichen]

yeah, on your client.run() there is a space after the closing bracket ) delete the space

[slate swan]

He's gone

[lost lichen]

try running again

[slate swan]

Error

[red nest]

show your error please

[slate swan]

Bot turned on

[slim ibex]

mobile programmer 🦾

[slate swan]

But commands not work

[red nest]

are you getting a error message

[slate swan]

No error , commands just not work

[honest vessel]

yes but you wont get help about youtube here duo ToS but hell yeah musicbots allowed

[slate swan]

.-.

[red nest]

@slate swan did you copy that code?

[red nest]

oh

[slate swan]

Yes

[lost lichen]

token is incorrect

[red nest]

that means that the token is not correct

[honest vessel]

wrong token

[lost lichen]

then why no work

[slim ibex]

What’s wrong?

[lost lichen]

it doesnt filter which reaction was reacted with

[slim ibex]

Show code

[lost lichen]

dpoesnt show anytrhing in terminal

[slim ibex]

ctx.bot.wait_for??

[red nest]

so in my code the if str(reaction.emoji)is outside of the try

[lost lichen]

was told to test it like that lol, let me remove the ctx and try again

[boreal ravine]

Do reaction, user = .... reaction is a tuple if you do it like that

[red nest]

oh yeah

[slate swan]

Thanks .

[boreal ravine]

why?

[red nest]

you need await bot.wait_for

[lost lichen]

still doesnt work after removing ctx

[red nest]

no problem

[lost lichen]

it just times out

[boreal ravine]

@lost lichen

[lost lichen]

where is reaction, user = i dont see it

[torn sail]

reaction_add takes reaction and user

[boreal ravine]

??

[lost lichen]

uhhh what...?

[slim ibex]

he is saying to add it lmao

[torn sail]

When you do ur wait_for

[lost lichen]

its already adding the emojis

see here it shows 2 ppl reacted, one is the bot the other is me

[slim ibex]

the reaction_add event doesn’t take in what you specified in your wait_for

[boreal ravine]

.

[lost lichen]

i know

my issue is not adding the reactions

my issue is running something when one of those emojis is reacted with by the user

in this case, a simple print()

[boreal ravine]

mate, you do realize that ```py
reaction = await bot.wait_for("reaction_add", ...)

[slim ibex]

^

[boreal ravine]

and you are using an "emoji" attribute on a tuple

[slim ibex]

^

[slate swan]

how to remove the delay in sending a command?

[lost lichen]

huh??

[slim ibex]

str(reaction.emoji)

[red nest]

what exactly do you mean?

[slim ibex]

the tuple has no attribute of emoji

[lost lichen]

so how would i do it? remove the str()? because i did that too

[green veldt]

im getting html kind of error when im running my repl, is my bot rate limited?

[slate swan]

The response from the bot is sent too slowly

[red nest]

oh

[boreal ravine]

reaction, user = ...

[boreal ravine]

probably yes

[green veldt]

ok thanks

[lost lichen]

that would probably be because you are running it on android and mobile is slower and/or internet like justarandom said

[red nest]

that is due to internet or servers being slow

you can't really make it faster

[boreal ravine]

!indent

[unkempt canyon]

Indentation

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

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

Example

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

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

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

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

[boreal ravine]

No need to send it again

[red nest]

that means you have a space or indent

that should not be there

[cosmic agate]

there is none

[pallid escarp]

How do i change my discord py bot version? (i want to go from rewrite to previous versions)

[red nest]

maybe you forgot to close a parenthesis or something

[lost lichen]

try:
    reaction, user = await bot.wait_for('reaction_add', timeout=15.0, check=check)
```? because before i was told to remove the `, user` lmao

since user was not being used or something

[red nest]

you can not make it faster

[boreal ravine]

yes

[slim ibex]

you need user if you want to access a user iirc

[slate swan]

Sad

[red nest]

yeah

[lusty yew]

Did someone try to make a bot what you can listen to a radio in a voice channel with?

[boreal ravine]

yeah, you could just do ```py
reaction = ...
if str(reaction[0].emoji) == ...:
...

[red nest]

idk

[boreal ravine]

but the other way is more readbable

[cosmic agate]

but all are closed

[red nest]

ok...

[boreal ravine]

error doesn't lie

[red nest]

yeah

[lost lichen]

still doesnt do anything

[red nest]

could you show your code?

[cosmic agate]

hmm

[lost lichen]

just times out

[cosmic agate]

ok sir

[boreal ravine]

show code

[cosmic agate]

could you give website?

for code view?

[boreal ravine]

!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.

[red nest]

oh

[cosmic agate]

thanks

@boreal ravine

[red nest]

you just need to paste your code

[cosmic agate]

https://paste.pythondiscord.com/gupuzupohi

this is code

[red nest]

or paste your code an put three ` before and after the command

[cosmic agate]

code @red nest

[red nest]

ok i'll take a look

[cosmic agate]

ok sir

[red nest]

so you are sure that there is no space

[cosmic agate]

literally yeah

https://tenor.com/view/dude-of-course-dwayne-johnson-seven-bucks-the-rock-definitely-gif-20129872

[red nest]

because that's what i would say

[cosmic agate]

man im kinda dumb

[red nest]

why?

[cosmic agate]

for coding python

[boreal ravine]

errors?

[red nest]

?

[lost lichen]

just this

AKA just the timed out

[boreal ravine]

did u react

[cosmic agate]

i said im an idiot for coding python

[lost lichen]

this is also running in a cog btw

[cosmic agate]

soo i might miss something

[lost lichen]

yes i did

[red nest]

ok...

[oblique adder]

how do i check in on message if someone sent a mp3 file ?
and get its url ?

[boreal ravine]

which emoji?

[cosmic agate]

soo no problem with code?

[cosmic agate]

js?

[red nest]

i didn't find any but the error is saying that there's a space

[cosmic agate]

yeah

[cosmic agate]

or is it the problem of the command count?

[boreal ravine]

!d discord.Message.attachments message.attachments[0].url maybe

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Message.attachments

A list of attachments given to a message.

[boreal ravine]

@oblique adder

[red nest]

the if str(reaction.emoji) needs to be outside of the try

[red nest]

no

[cosmic agate]

hmm

ill change position of command timerhelp

lemme check if that works ig

sed

no success

[red nest]

ok

[cosmic agate]

it blames the command under timerhelp

[red nest]

ok

[lost lichen]

still doesnt work...

[red nest]

like this yeah

it should be like this

[lost lichen]

im going mental on this project

[cosmic agate]

mine too XD

[cosmic agate]

so now what

sed

[red nest]

don't know

[cosmic agate]

hmm

[lost lichen]

the fact my code was working perfectly before, i just couldnt send a message, and everyone here told me to change my whole check function

[cosmic agate]

sed

https://tenor.com/view/life-sucks-adventure-time-raining-sitting-sad-gif-15727597

[red nest]

oh so it has to do something with the check

[lost lichen]

i dont know.

[cosmic agate]

lol what

[lost lichen]

this WAS my code before, my problem was i couldnt put await ctx.send, but it would print the colour based on the reaction pressed perfectly, lmao

[oblique adder]

does message.content return none if there is only files ?

[buoyant igloo]

#python-discussion

ignore this just tryna find general

[nimble plume]

Hi

[red nest]

trying to figure out why ctx.send does not work

[red nest]

OHHHH

i figured it out

[lost lichen]

so you see, when i had it setup like that screenshot, you cant put await inside of a check function, and you cant async the check function either bcecuase otherwise it just doesnt function

[red nest]

yeah

[cosmic agate]

File "main.py", line 111
@bot.command()
^
IndentationError: unexpected unindent

help anyone?

[red sundial]

unexpected unindent

[red nest]

like i said, there is a space or something

[cosmic agate]

but ther isnt one

[red sundial]

errors don't lie

[lost lichen]

so... how would i have made it send the message and accept only 1 reaction?

[lost lichen]

lol

[oblique adder]

Ping me

[cosmic agate]

ik but, check my code :https://paste.pythondiscord.com/gupuzupohi

[red nest]

it works with multiple reactions

[red nest]

i made a rock paper scissors command with that and it works

[buoyant igloo]

no way bro u gunna hack us

[nimble plume]

Im lagging

[lost lichen]

could you send the code please?

[red nest]

something like this ``` valid_choices = ["🪨", "📰", "✂"]

await ctx.send("hacker")

[red nest]

i checked the code its not a hack

[buoyant igloo]

You on the hack?

[nimble plume]

Imagine hacking with discord.py

[red sundial]

so im trying to make a slowmode command. im using pycord, here's my code

@slash_command(guild_ids=[918349390995914792], description="slowmode")
    async def slowmode(ctx, seconds: int):
        await ctx.channel.edit(slowmode_delay=seconds)
        await ctx.send(f"Slowmode set to {seconds} seconds.")
``` this is inside a cog called `Fun` 

when i use it it raises an error
```Application Command raised an exception: TypeError: Fun.slowmode() got multiple values for argument 'seconds'``` any help would be appreciated

[red nest]

bruh

[red sundial]

thats the official python discord pastebin lol

[red nest]

yeah

[south jetty]

 line 3, in <module>
    from help_cog import help_cog

Why isn't it importing

[buoyant igloo]

Idk man I don’t trust any link

[red sundial]

why you on the internet

[red nest]

you can trust that link it's not a hack

[nimble plume]

What arenu trying to do

ignore its just so i can read it better

[red nest]

ok

wait a minute

[buoyant igloo]

“What? How did you smash me?” Sounds gpkinda sus man

[slate swan]

dont use time.sleep

[lost lichen]

im not, thats not my code lmao

[red nest]

why

[south jetty]

@nimble plume

[slate swan]

ah sorry

[slate swan]

!blocking

[unkempt canyon]

Why do we need asynchronous programming?
Imagine that you're coding a Discord bot and every time somebody uses a command, you need to get some information from a database. But there's a catch: the database servers are acting up today and take a whole 10 seconds to respond. If you do not use asynchronous methods, your whole bot will stop running until it gets a response from the database. How do you fix this? Asynchronous programming.

What is asynchronous programming?
An asynchronous program utilises the async and await keywords. An asynchronous program pauses what it's doing and does something else whilst it waits for some third-party service to complete whatever it's supposed to do. Any code within an async context manager or function marked with the await keyword indicates to Python, that whilst this operation is being completed, it can do something else. For example:

import discord

# Bunch of bot code

async def ping(ctx):
    await ctx.send("Pong!")

What does the term "blocking" mean?
A blocking operation is wherever you do something without awaiting it. This tells Python that this step must be completed before it can do anything else. Common examples of blocking operations, as simple as they may seem, include: outputting text, adding two numbers and appending an item onto a list. Most common Python libraries have an asynchronous version available to use in asynchronous contexts.

async libraries
The standard async library - asyncio
Asynchronous web requests - aiohttp
Talking to PostgreSQL asynchronously - asyncpg
MongoDB interactions asynchronously - motor
Check out this list for even more!

[lost lichen]

oh yeah, if you do sleep it will stop the rest of the code, thats why you have to async it

[red nest]

   def check(reaction, user):
       return user == ctx.author and str(reaction.emoji) in valid_choices
    try:
        reaction, user = await bot.wait_for('reaction_add', timeout = 30.0, check=check)
    except asyncio.TimeoutError:
        return await ctx.send("Not fast enough my guy!")
    if str(reaction.emoji) == "🪨":
      your code```

[red sundial]

you should use asyncio.sleep not time.sleep

[slate swan]

it will block all of your code and making your bot not acknowledge a heartbeat so it will get disconnected from the websocket and from the api

[lost lichen]

you see, thats what i have lmao, im going insane omfg

[red nest]

oh ok

[red nest]

yeah but it works fine for me

[left crater]

how do i send an image in an embed

[lost lichen]

link or file, let me get an example hold on

[slate swan]

!d discord.Embed.set_image

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Embed.set\_image

set_image(*, url)```
Sets the image 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 image.

[left crater]

cuz this is what it is doing rn

[lost lichen]

exactly embed.set_image()

[left crater]

ok thanks

[slate swan]

discord.ext.commands.errors.CommandInvokeError: Command raised an exception: TypeError: __init__() got an unexpected keyword argument 'timeout'
what should i do to fix this i am using discord.py

[lost lichen]

picture = <picture you want>
embed = discord.Embed(title=f'Picture:', colour=0x400080)
embed.set_image(url = picture)
await ctx.send(embed=embed)```

[south jetty]

someone help me with this

[slate swan]

show code

[slate swan]

you dont import cogs you load them

[south jetty]

what do you mean

[tacit storm]

send us your code.

[slate swan]

you make a global setup method and you load the cog

!d discord.ext.commands.Bot.load_extension

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ext.commands.Bot.load\_extension

load_extension(name, *, package=None)```
Loads an extension.

An extension is a python module that contains commands, cogs, or listeners.

An extension must have a global function, `setup` defined as the entry point on what to do when the extension is loaded. This entry point must have a single argument, the `bot`.

[lost lichen]

[slate swan]

button = Button(label="Invite", style=discord.ButtonStyle.primary,timeout=seconds)

[lost lichen]

code should work regardless of who runs it

[honest shoal]

hi, is there any way to set multiple images in embed? I have seen recently that link embeds are having multiple images is it possible through bot?

[slate swan]

because you dont set the timeout there lol

[tacit storm]

from the looks of it, timeout is not a kwarg supposed to be there.

[slate swan]

yeah

[lost lichen]

maybe because im running it in a cog??

[red nest]

idk

[tacit storm]

you can have multiple images but im sure theres a limit as well, just like the amount of characters in a embed.

[red nest]

maybe

[honest shoal]

oh

[tacit storm]

im not sure about that tho

[lost lichen]

but that shouldnt affect it lmao, ugh why doesnt it wanna workkk :(

[red nest]

yeah:(

[slate swan]

whats happening?

[lost lichen]

when running the command and reacting, it wont print or do anything based on what emoji was reacted with, it just times out

response time is not discord bot api response time btw

[cosmic agate]

@red nest i removed count command and now it works

[red nest]

ok

so the error was in the count command

[lost lichen]

and im running this in a cog

[slate swan]

tbh i dont know because i dont use emojis as buttons and i actually use buttons so i recommend you use buttons if you want a fork thatd close to dpy i would use disnake which has a guide on how to migrate and has examples for buttons

[tacit storm]

discord.py has buttons iirc, doesn't it?

[slate swan]

what is bot exactly

[slate swan]

2.0 yes

[lost lichen]

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

[slate swan]

main does have buttons but doesn't have other new features like timeout

[tacit storm]

alr

[slate swan]

it wont work because you have 2 instances of your bot

[lost lichen]

what do you mean

[slate swan]

in your class initiate you pass your bot instance

why does this always say unsupported image type whenever I try to add an animated emoji, it works with a normal one though ;-;

async with aiohttp.ClientSession() as ses: 
  async with ses.get(image_url) as r: 
      img_or_gif = BytesIO(await r.read())
      b_value = img_or_gif.getvalue()
      if r.status in range(200, 299): 
        await inter.guild.create_custom_emoji(image=b_value, name=emoji_name)

[lost lichen]

if i remove the bot = what should i put here in the wait_for then??

[cosmic agate]

yeah

[slate swan]

no you make a class variable thats the bot in params

[lost lichen]

?

[slate swan]

is it a gif?

i recommend you send the img first to see how it looks

[slate swan]

yeah

[lost lichen]

sorry, what do you mean by this

[slate swan]

lemme try using a different link then

[slate swan]

😔

[slate swan]

class Dog:
    def __init__(self, arg):
        self.arg = arg

here youre making a class variable or an attr

[left crater]

how can i get only the video urls in channel history

[stone beacon]

That's an instance variable not class

[slate swan]

i ment it like its a variable bound to a class lol

[stone beacon]

Nop variable is bound to the instance of the class

class Dog:
  arg = 5

That's bounded to the class

[slate swan]

bro i ment it like you cant use it outside of any instance of the class

[lost lichen]

so, im still confused on how to get my code to work, what do i need to class, how do i class it? i am not familiar with classes in python

[slate swan]

alr lol

you have a point

[slate swan]

it converts all the stuff but doesnt upload it

oof

[maiden fable]

👀

[left crater]

can anyone help me?

[maiden fable]

U gotta use regex or smth

Or use message.attachments

[left crater]

oh

[maiden fable]

!d discord.TextChannel.history

[unkempt canyon]

discord.TextChannel.history

async for ... in history(*, limit=100, before=None, after=None, around=None, oldest_first=None)```
Returns an [`AsyncIterator`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/api.html#discord.AsyncIterator "discord.AsyncIterator") that enables receiving the destination’s message history.

You must have [`read_message_history`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/api.html#discord.Permissions.read_message_history "discord.Permissions.read_message_history") permissions to use this.

Examples

Usage...

[maiden fable]

!d filter

[unkempt canyon]

filter

filter(function, iterable)```
Construct an iterator from those elements of *iterable* for which *function* returns true. *iterable* may be either a sequence, a container which supports iteration, or an iterator. If *function* is `None`, the identity function is assumed, that is, all elements of *iterable* that are false are removed.

Note that `filter(function, iterable)` is equivalent to the generator expression `(item for item in iterable if function(item))` if function is not `None` and `(item for item in iterable if item)` if function is `None`.

See [`itertools.filterfalse()`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/itertools.html#itertools.filterfalse "itertools.filterfalse") for the complementary function that returns elements of *iterable* for which *function* returns false.

Similar names: label.filter, 2to3fixer.filter, django.filter

[stone beacon]

Murder she wrote!!

[buoyant igloo]

Guys I wanna put a huge part of my code into another file to use it how would I do that? (Discord.py)

[slate swan]

wut

[stone beacon]

!d discord.utils.find

[unkempt canyon]

discord.utils.find

discord.utils.find(predicate, seq)```
A helper to return the first element found in the sequence that meets the predicate. For example:

```py
member = discord.utils.find(lambda m: m.name == 'Mighty', channel.guild.members)
```  would find the first [`Member`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/api.html#discord.Member "discord.Member") whose name is ‘Mighty’ and return it. If an entry is not found, then `None` is returned.

This is different from [`filter()`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/functions.html#filter "(in Python v3.9)") due to the fact it stops the moment it finds a valid entry.

[slate swan]

cogs

[slate swan]

who?

[stone beacon]

at that's it

[buoyant igloo]

Huh

[maiden fable]

I was talking to Soop

[slate swan]

help me too, please hun

[maiden fable]

with?

[left crater]

async def jpg_File(message):
    channel = bot.get_channel(699577970117050399)
    messages = await channel.history(limit=None).flatten()
    for p in messages:
        print(p.attachments)```this extracts images and videos

[stone beacon]

as @maiden fable stated you can iterate through the channel history and check for video urls in each of the messages

[slate swan]

@maiden fable

[stone beacon]

I'd recommend using regex to match the video urls in the message content

[maiden fable]

wait what is the error?

[left crater]

sadly i dont know how to do that

[maiden fable]

Yea regex sucks ik

[slate swan]

'unsupported image type'

[maiden fable]

getbuffer() instead of getvalue()

[stone beacon]

Thankfully big brain peeps did most of the painful regex for us. If you make a quick google search you can "regex pattern to match links". The problem is, how do you differentiate between an image or video link I don't know how to do that

[slate swan]

ah lemme see

[stone beacon]

It would be much easier if you were just checking for uploaded videos not links that point to videos

[maiden fable]

Just check if the most common image formats like png, jpg, jpeg and stuff are in the url string?

[stone beacon]

Well you see most links don't end in png or mp4 etc

[maiden fable]

if "png" in url

[stone beacon]

For example a youtube link , I mean the user knows that all youtube links "can" be videos, but some can be of channels so that's a problem.

[maiden fable]

Ah that way

[stone beacon]

That's assuming that the word png will actually be in the url

[maiden fable]

Wait I thought only user uploaded vids and stuff

[stone beacon]

If it's random vids then it's problematic but if all the vids follow a strict format you can get all of em

[maiden fable]

Yea

[stone beacon]

Nope person said video urls

So I'm assuming it's links

[maiden fable]

Ah okay (Sleepy asf rn, already 12 here)

[slate swan]

[maiden fable]

Meh nah

BTW did it work?

[halcyon onyx]

hello

help!!!!!!!!!!!

[maiden fable]

with?

[kind cargo]

i need help aswell

[halcyon onyx]

if the while true is on the bot stop working how i multithered it

[final iron]

Don't use time.sleep() it's blocking

[kind cargo]

@final iron could i get help?

[final iron]

Don't ask to ask

[kind cargo]

okay sorry

hello help please

[rotund leaf]

What help?

[halcyon onyx]

i know but the bot stop working when he is on the loop

[kind cargo]

my problem is at the end on the code, if name == "main":
bot.run(TOKEN)

it does not work

[vocal stag]

Hi guys!

I might come back here not long i think

[halcyon onyx]

if name == main:
bot.run(TOKEN)

[kind cargo]

wait somthing is wrong with this: bot.run(TOKEN)

should i paste my discord bot token in there?

[halcyon onyx]

ofc

[kind cargo]

okay

im beginner

[halcyon onyx]

or u have to put --Token = "type it here"--

before the bot.run

[potent spear]

whatever you're trying here is very basic and will lose progress once the bot restarts, just saying

[kind cargo]

@halcyon onyx

[slim ibex]

put bot.run in a main function, and run that main function in the if-name-main idiom

[swift imp]

My bot restarts 5 times. What could be the reason?

[potent spear]

your code

[slim ibex]

just convention pretty sure

[swift imp]

how

don't tell me you're using replit as hosting

[slim ibex]

💀

[kind cargo]

@slim ibex

can we go PM?

[slim ibex]

no

[kind cargo]

oky

[swift imp]

I host the bot through my device

[kind cargo]

can anyone help me

[potent spear]

Then you should be fine, any errors?

[swift imp]

no

bot just reloads 5 times

[potent spear]

How do you know / why do you think so?

[buoyant igloo]

does anyone know how to save user data in discord.py after you stop running your IDE?

[final iron]

Use a database

[buoyant igloo]

Wdym

[final iron]

A database

[potent spear]

A database stores data for you locally or in the cloud… can’t be said more

[final iron]

Like sqlite3

[swift imp]

well, I have a code with on_ready and when the bot starts, it displays a message saying that the bot will start soon

[potent spear]

Yes, but an async wrapper

[final iron]

!pypi aiosqlite

[unkempt canyon]

aiosqlite v0.17.0

asyncio bridge to the standard sqlite3 module

[potent spear]

Don’t do stuff in on_ready tho, a simple print at most

[kind cargo]

can anyone help me please i have 1 error, its says: name 'name' is not defined

[final iron]

Pretty obvious

You haven't defined name

[kind cargo]

how do i do that?

[final iron]

Define name

[buoyant igloo]

Define name

[kind cargo]

in vsc terminal?

[buoyant igloo]

Define name

[kind cargo]

or cmd

[final iron]

In your code

[kind cargo]

okay

where in my code if name == main:
bot.run(TOKEN) here?

[final iron]

It's __name__

[swift imp]

I only have this codepy @bot.event async def on_ready(): print('Бот скоро будет запущен') await bot.change_presence(status = discord.Status.online, activity = discord.Game("h!хелп")) for guild in bot.guilds: for member in guild.members: users = { "member_id": member.id, "guild_id": guild.id, "name": member.name, "money": 0 } if collection.count_documents({"member_id": member.id, "guild_id": guild.id}) == 0: collection.insert_one(users)

[kind cargo]

still dosent work @final iron

[final iron]

if __name__ == "__main__":
    ...

[final iron]

Don't try to make requests to the api in your on_ready

The api can disconnect you

[vocal stag]

test]

[swift imp]

@final ironin name write the name of the bot file?

[final iron]

No

[swift imp]

just copy and paste it?

[final iron]

Not exactly

[buoyant igloo]

name is a function from python

[final iron]

But the if __name__ == "__main__": part

[slate swan]

[kind cargo]

Can i get som help: File "C:\Users\sweti\OneDrive\Skrivbord\swishbot\swishbot\main.py", line 50, in <module>
bot.run(TOKEN)

bot.run(TOKEN) what should i do ?

[slate swan]

You need to make token a string

[mystic vault]

you should take the token of the bot from https://www.discord.com/developers

[slate swan]

Do bot.run(“bot.token”)

And change bot.token to your bot token from the link @mystic vault sent

[mystic vault]

If did not make a bot from there make one and copy its token, and if you want to invite your bot to an server, use URL Generator option in the bot profile, click on bot option, then copy the link that will be on the bottom

[slate swan]

^ @kind cargo

[kind cargo]

yes

[slate swan]

Read what he said

[kind cargo]

alright

[potent spear]

Don’t do API calls in on_ready, use a startup task instead

[left crater]

@maiden fable i figured it out btw

[slate swan]

@kind cargo https://discord.com/developers/applications

Create application

[maiden fable]

how

@bot.command()
async def ping(ctx):
    await ctx.send("|| Boomer ||")

[slate swan]

@bot.command()
async def ping(ctx):
await ctx.send('Pong! {0}'.format(round(bot.latency, 1)))

[left crater]

i took every attachment ever sent in the channel and converted it into a list then just did this for i in a: if i.endswith("mp4\n"): print(i)

[maiden fable]

That won't work everytime @left crater

[kind cargo]

@slate swan i didnt understand

[maiden fable]

Since sometimes there is a \ at the end too

[slate swan]

Yes

[buoyant igloo]

You need to define bot

[kind cargo]

could we go call or pm @slate swan

[maiden fable]

U should use if "mp4" in url

[left crater]

now i have 1600 urls

but i have a slight problem

[swift imp]

@potent spearokay thx

[cloud dawn]

No he should use mimetypes

[maiden fable]

tf is that

[left crater]

there is spaces in between them

will that still send

[swift imp]

thanks for the help

[cloud dawn]

mimetypes is a global way to check a files type. So if i were to rename a mp4 to mp3 mimetypes would still identify it as a mp4

[maiden fable]

Ah okay

[slate swan]

@bot.command()
async def alex(ctx, arg):
  name, leng, amnt = arg.split(':')
  users = 0

  content = '\n'.join(sample(ascii_lowercase+digits, int(leng)))
  buffer = BytesIO(content.encode('utf-8'))
  file = discord.File(buffer, filename= name)
  users += 1
  print(f"{user} | {users}")
  ctx.send(file=file)``` discord not defined but it should from module?

[final iron]

Can you send the traceback?

[left crater]

it didn't work...

[slate swan]

Who me?

[final iron]

Yes

[left crater]

is there anyway i can remove all of these spaces?

[maiden fable]

the line breaks?

[left crater]

ye

[honest shoal]

👀

[cloud dawn]

Is this created by code? Or a file???

[left crater]

code

i used a for loop to get all those links out

[cloud dawn]

Could you show the code?

[left crater]

for i in a:
    if i.endswith("mp4\n"):
        print(i)```

[cloud dawn]

print already has as default a \n

You can remove \n in the list or modify the print function.

[left crater]

how

the list is too long

its like 2000 lines

[cloud dawn]

a = [links.mp4\n, link.mp4\n]
for i in a:
    if i.endswith("mp4\n"):
        print(i, end='')

!d print

[unkempt canyon]

print

print(*objects, sep=' ', end='\n', file=sys.stdout, flush=False)```
Print *objects* to the text stream *file*, separated by *sep* and followed by *end*. *sep*, *end*, *file*, and *flush*, if present, must be given as keyword arguments.

All non-keyword arguments are converted to strings like [`str()`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/stdtypes.html#str "str") does and written to the stream, separated by *sep* and followed by *end*. Both *sep* and *end* must be strings; they can also be `None`, which means to use the default values. If no *objects* are given, [`print()`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/functions.html#print "print") will just write *end*.

The *file* argument must be an object with a `write(string)` method; if it is not present or `None`, [`sys.stdout`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/sys.html#sys.stdout "sys.stdout") will be used. Since printed arguments are converted to text strings, [`print()`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/functions.html#print "print") cannot be used with binary mode file objects. For these, use `file.write(...)` instead.

Similar names: 2to3fixer.print

[cloud dawn]

Look at the "end" kwarg default is \n with this code we just set it to a blank string.

[left crater]

ok let me see\

So learn basic Python and try building a Discord bot when you're more comfortable

[kind cargo]

okk

[slate swan]

Unfortunately, it's hard for us to help you when you're finding it hard to debug NameErrors.

We expect you to have a basic knowledge of Python.

Quick question, is there a way to make a new cooldown inside a command(im not talking abt @commands.cooldown()). Special cooldown for special ppl :)

[slate swan]

Yes

[slate swan]

What kind of cooldown? Can you elaborate? Because chances are that @commands.cooldown() can help with it.

[slate swan]

Can you show your code?

[slate swan]

I mean i want to ctx.command.reset_cooldown(ctx) and then ill make a new cooldown inside an if statement

!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]

If you know wut im talking abt

!d discord.ext.commands.cooldown

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ext.commands.cooldown

@discord.ext.commands.cooldown(rate, per, type=discord.ext.commands.BucketType.default)```
A decorator that adds a cooldown to a [`Command`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.Command "discord.ext.commands.Command")

A cooldown allows a command to only be used a specific amount of times in a specific time frame. These cooldowns can be based either on a per-guild, per-channel, per-user, per-role or global basis. Denoted by the third argument of `type` which must be of enum type [`BucketType`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.BucketType "discord.ext.commands.BucketType").

If a cooldown is triggered, then [`CommandOnCooldown`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.CommandOnCooldown "discord.ext.commands.CommandOnCooldown") is triggered in [`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") and the local error handler.

A command can only have a single cooldown.

[slate swan]

No not really, you're not being very clear.

@bot.command()
async def alex(ctx, arg):
  name, leng, amnt = arg.split(':')
  users = 0

  file = discord.File(buffer, filename= name)
  users += 1
  print(f"{user} | {users}")
  ctx.send(file=file)``` discord not defined but it should from module?

What kind of cooldown do you want to implement? Do you want the ratelimit to only apply once you've reached a certain point in the command's execution? You didn't provide any further clarification.

[slate swan]

No, the whole file.

?

[slate swan]

like if the current cooldown is 20 and my id in a special(like premium) list, it will allows me to use the command every 10sec not(20)

list =["a list"]
if myid in list:
   #reset_cooldown, and creating a new cooldown

[slate swan]

No i want per

UGH idk how to explain it

😭

basically im using 1.7v

not 2.0

Hm.

!d discord.ext.commands.dynamic_cooldown

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ext.commands.dynamic\_cooldown

@discord.ext.commands.dynamic_cooldown(cooldown, type=BucketType.default)```
A decorator that adds a dynamic cooldown to a [`Command`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.Command "discord.ext.commands.Command")

This differs from [`cooldown()`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.cooldown "discord.ext.commands.cooldown") in that it takes a function that accepts a single parameter of type [`discord.Message`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/api.html#discord.Message "discord.Message") and must return a [`Cooldown`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.Cooldown "discord.ext.commands.Cooldown") or `None`. If `None` is returned then that cooldown is effectively bypassed.

A cooldown allows a command to only be used a specific amount of times in a specific time frame. These cooldowns can be based either on a per-guild, per-channel, per-user, per-role or global basis. Denoted by the third argument of `type` which must be of enum type [`BucketType`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.BucketType "discord.ext.commands.BucketType").

is it possible to have a lot of bot commands in a separate file and import them all together as extensions through cogs? or only 1 command per .py file

You can put multiple commands in a cog

[slate swan]

Is there an easier library than nextcord regarding callbacks, and add_views? I am not so good with OOP.

online = len(list(filter(lambda x: x.status == discord.Status.online, mbrs)))                        
        print(f"{online}")
        idle = len(list(filter(lambda x: x.status == discord.Status.idle, mbrs)))
        offline = len(list(filter(lambda x: x.status == discord.Status.offline, mbrs))) 
        dnd = len(list(filter(lambda x: x.status == discord.Status.dnd, mbrs)))  

Shows the wrong number of people on the server (by status, there are intents)?

I wanna spawn those buttons based on multiple keywords. But I do not know the amount of buttons, before I query and online API. So its N amount of buttons and each needs a callback.

fits = ['1','2','3']

@bot.command()
async def tempest(ctx):
    message = await ctx.send("test")

    # Establish an instance of the discord.ui.View class
    view = nextcord.ui.View()

    for i in fits:
        view.add_item(item=nextcord.ui.Button(style=nextcord.ButtonStyle.link,label=str(i),url=message.jump_url))

    await ctx.send("pick a choice", view=view)

How would I know which button has been pressed?

[manic wing]

ⁿᵉˣᵗᶜᵒʳᵈ

[slate swan]

I am open to any other library 🙂

[manic wing]

use disnake

nextcord has a slow rate of development and has practically only changed the namespace

[slate swan]

I just checked the disnake example file for buttons, it shows how to make buttons if they are pre defined, but I need N amount of buttons (not hardcoded). How would I do that?

[manic wing]

well

typically you would want to avoid this and precode it in a class, but if necessary you would do ```py
view = disnake.ui.View()
for i in fits:
view.add_item(disnake.ui.Button(
style=disnake.ButtonStyle.green,
label=str(i),
url=message.jump_url,
)

[slate swan]

And how would you know which button has been pressed?

[manic wing]

im not sure if you can if your button is a url button but you would have to subclass Button to add a callback method

[slate swan]

The URL button was just an example, sorry. I do not need an URL button. After the user picked a button I want the bot to post an image.

[scarlet aurora]

how do i call multiple commands in a cog file

[slate swan]

How? I did not see any example code in stackoverflow or github that shows that for N amount of buttons 😦 Maybe I just missed it

I tried to find example code for this the last few days 😛

[alpine furnace]

Each view can have 5 buttons per row, and you just need logic to divide them into groups of 5

[slate swan]

The buttons in that example are hardcoded. So the approach would not apply, would it?

[scarlet aurora]

load

[slate swan]

If I run that command in a for loop, it will overwrite the same button over and over.

fits = ['1','2','3']

@bot.command()
async def tempest(ctx):
    message = await ctx.send("test")

    # Establish an instance of the discord.ui.View class
    view = nextcord.ui.View()

    for i in fits:
        view.add_item(item=nextcord.ui.Button(style=nextcord.ButtonStyle.link,label=str(i),url=message.jump_url))

    await ctx.send("pick a choice", view=view)

Because the buttons are fetched from a database

Unknown before how many there are and what text they contain

Until the database query, correct.

But for simplification, lets assume I use a random number to define how many buttons there are.

Correct.

[alpine furnace]

Just make a lambda and map each letter in a dictionary

To a different lambda, that is

[slate swan]

So that is why I did not find anything on stackoverflow?

[alpine furnace]

Yes it would

Just set the callback argument in button to a lambda you generate each iteration

Not sure why you need a decorator as it’s just a plain function that’s called

Decorator* not callback

[slate swan]

I "just" need the value of the button (or know which button the user has pressed). The bot decides what to do next. Or is that oversimplyfied?

https://discord.com/developers/docs/interactions/message-components

I saw on_component on stackoverflow

The Component Interaction Object

But I am terrible with classes 😛

[alpine furnace]

Let there be a function async def process(label, interaction), so every iteration in your loop you’d generate a bound function async def inner(interaction): await process(i, interaction)
Assuming i is whatever the button’s label is

So forgive me, not lambdas, an async inner function 😄

And then in process you could access the button’s name

[slate swan]

🤯

await bot.wait_for("button_click", check = lambda i: i.custom_id == "button1")

https://devkiki7000.gitbook.io/discord-components/guide/getting-started

That looks similar

[final iron]

discord-components

[alpine furnace]

Eh, idk why you’d do that

[final iron]

😔

[slate swan]

I think actually parsing the discord json response would be easier for me, since I do know python (just not oop), but if for whatever reason I need to pass this code on to someone else in the future, I do not want to leave them with a mess.

[final iron]

Parsing json is simple, I personally don't think it would be a mess

[slate swan]

As a general questions, which is the most commonly used library? I see stackoverflow posts from dec 2021, using discord.py

[alpine furnace]

Pycord is good

It apparently has the most stars on GitHub from all the forks

[slate swan]

Help me

[alpine furnace]

You’d be doing this anyway in any fork

[slate swan]

Why do all those discord libraries look the same? 😳

[alpine furnace]

Lol

[final iron]

Most of them are forks of discord.py

[slate swan]

Well, that makes sense.

if "New Emote Appears" in message.embeds[0].title:
await message.channel.send('That Emote is HOT!')

I want it so my user bot sees other messages and not just its own how do i do that?

[slim ibex]

show more code

[silent ermine]

Would this code be the correct way to save something in sqlite

    @leveling.command()
    async def enable(self, ctx):
        db = sqlite3.connect('main.sqlite')
        cursor = db.cursor()
        cursor.execute(f"SELECT leveling_is_active FROM levels WHERE guild_id = '{ctx.guild.id}'")
        result = cursor.fetchone()
        #1 == yes && 0 == no
        if result == 1:
            sql = ("UPDATE levels SET leveling_is_active = ? WHERE guild_id = ?")
            val = (1, ctx.guild.id)
            cursor.execute(sql, val)
            db.commit
            await ctx.reply("Leveling is already enabled.")
            cursor.close()
            db.close()
        else:
            sql = ("UPDATE levels SET leveling_is_active = ? WHERE guild_id = ?")
            val = (1, ctx.guild.id)
            cursor.execute(sql, val)
            db.commit
            await ctx.reply("Leveling has been enabled.")
            cursor.close()
            db.close()```
Because it keeps saying `None` when i print the value

[kindred epoch]

the values goes after the " in the end of an sql statement

and again, you used placeholders in some parts but not in the first part

[kindred epoch]

so something like this

await cursor.execute("UPDATE members SET user_id = ? WHERE guild_id = ?",ctx.author.id,ctx.guild.id)

[silent ermine]

it had an error, saying it requires 0 positional args but it were given 2

[silent ermine]

ok imma try that

[kindred epoch]

oh yea so for sqlite, you have to add an extra comma after the last arg like this
before:

,ctx.author.id,ctx.guild.id)

after

,ctx.author.id,ctx.guild.id,)

[silent ermine]

how come?

[kindred epoch]

idk its just like that for sqlite

[slate swan]

Prolly so code knows difference

[kindred epoch]

you dont have to do that in postgres tho

[silent ermine]

ok

[silent ermine]

still same error o-o

[slate swan]

@bot.command()
async def alex(ctx, arg):
  name, leng, amt = arg.split(':')
  
users = 0
name = name
leng = leng
amnt = amt
for i in range(int(amnt)):
        user = "".join(sample(ascii_lowercase+digits, int(leng)))
        users += 1
        print(f"{user} | {users}")
        buffer = BytesIO(user.encode('utf-8'))
        discord.File(buffer,filename=name)
 await ctx.send(file=file)

[silent ermine]

send the error and what is it supposed to do

[kindred epoch]

can you show me ur code?

[slate swan]

!indents

[unkempt canyon]

Indentation

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

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

Example

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

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

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

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

It’s suppose to make txt files of strings depending on input

@leveling.command()

        result = cursor.fetchone()
        #1 == yes && 0 == no
        if result == 0:
            sql = ("UPDATE levelingenabled SET leveling_is_active = ? WHERE guild_id = ?")
            val = (0, ctx.guild.id)
            cursor.execute(sql, val)
            db.commit()
            await ctx.reply("Leveling is already disabled.")
            cursor.close()

[kindred epoch]

my guy

[silent ermine]

indent it

@bot.command()
async def alex(ctx, arg):
  name, leng, amt = arg.split(':')
  
users = 0
name = name
leng = leng
amnt = amt
for i in range(int(amnt)):
        user = "".join(sample(ascii_lowercase+digits, int(leng)))
        users += 1
        print(f"{user} | {users}")
        buffer = BytesIO(user.encode('utf-8'))
        discord.File(buffer,filename=name)
        await ctx.send(file=file)```

[kindred epoch]

you are not supposed to copy and paste the exact same thing i send

that wont even work because you dont have a table called "members" in ur db
