[sick birch]

This is pretty heavy on OOP with classes, inheritance, and what not but you had very little trouble getting it going on your own 😄

[slate swan]

multiple inheritance 😳

[final iron]

Hey Robin, wondering if you can do me a favor. Could you ask a mod to check if someone has been permanently banned or temp banned because if they were permanently banned I have proof that they're ban evading?

Or should I just make the report and see?

[sick birch]

Yeah I could relay that to them

Though probably contact modmail

[wicked atlas]

you could search their user id in message search

[final iron]

There are channels we can't see

Mods handle things "internally" all the time

[wicked atlas]

yeah, but if they were banned they probably got banned by a command

[final iron]

Why does that matter?

Mods can ban them internally with a command too

[sick birch]

@final iron I've let em know but regardless send @novel apex a message and they'll help you sort things out

[final iron]

Alright

Thanks for helping

[sick birch]

He says to the helper 😂

[slate swan]

[wicked atlas]

[boreal ravine]

Not that hard

[slate swan]

@sick birch what's the right kwarg to edit the channel news

[boreal ravine]

!d discord.TextChannel.edit

[unkempt canyon]

discord.TextChannel.edit

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

Edits the channel.

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

Changed in version 1.3: The `overwrites` keyword-only parameter was added.

Changed in version 1.4: The `type` keyword-only parameter was added.

Changed in version 2.0: Edits are no longer in-place, the newly edited channel is returned instead.

[boreal ravine]

Click the link to see

[sick birch]

looks like type=

[slate swan]

ik but its a cool topic

[sick birch]

type=ChannelType.news?

[slate swan]

method*

[boreal ravine]

No?

[slate swan]

you guys are funny

[slate swan]

shit won't work lol

[boreal ravine]

it's discord.ChannelType.news

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ChannelType.news

A guild news channel.

[boreal ravine]

yes

[slate swan]

ah alr

[boreal ravine]

why is the message cooldown so long here

[slate swan]

idk

its big now for some reason

[boreal ravine]

they keep raising and lowering it

[slate swan]

yeah

bro what 😂

bro

[boreal ravine]

.

[slate swan]

WAIT

you dont copy anything like that

TYPE MY BAD LOL

have you read docs?

[slate swan]

i didn't notice bruh

is 6 am im slow lol

lol

but how can i set it to True/false

does it take bool?

[boreal ravine]

wdym 'true/false'

[slate swan]

Like if the before is false and after is true ban the member and set it back to false

or if before is true and after is false ban the member and set it back to true

[final iron]

Aight I sent in the report

[slate swan]

@slate swan

?

[slate swan]

^

[alpine furnace]

Huh? That sentence was extremely unclear @slate swan please use commas

[final iron]

Commas are so useful tbh

[vast gale]

quick question:

env file:

• BOT_TOKEN=...
• TOKEN=...

which name is better

[boreal ravine]

prefer JSON tbh

[silent ermine]

Any lol

I prefer bot_token incase I need other tokens and I need to find them

[boreal ravine]

BOT_TOKEN

[vast gale]

thanks you've influnced a pr

[maiden fable]

@slate swan what a name 👀

[slate swan]

[maiden fable]

Mind changing your nick?

[vast gale]

actually pfp is nsfw

[maiden fable]

Meh as if someone gonna change the PFP

[vast gale]

yeah but tos

sent a modmail

[slate swan]

do you think people are gonna listen if you tell them to do that without you questioning, "are you mod?"

[slate swan]

"minimod"

[maiden fable]

Bruh why y'all talking about ToS all of a sudden

[maiden fable]

Okay

[slate swan]

lol

[maiden fable]

Meh, nickname policy exists in #rules

I can just direct them there and ping the mods ¯_(ツ)_/¯

Rip that was removed

!d discord.TextChannel.permissions_for

[unkempt canyon]

discord.TextChannel.permissions\_for

This function takes into consideration the following cases...

[slate swan]

wont work

[maiden fable]

There smh

[maiden fable]

Bet?

[slate swan]

no, wrong ping

[maiden fable]

U didn't ping anyone tho 👀

@slate swan just use that

[slate swan]

yeahhhhh, it didn't ping

[vast gale]

f it, lemme just ask here UwU

[maiden fable]

arl do be lurking here 👀

Smh u also started uwuing I'm out

[vast gale]

owo

so i'm trying to redo some examples 👀

[maiden fable]

Robin, why u lurking here?

[vast gale]

thinking of the best way to remove references to tokens

[maiden fable]

if channel.permissions_for(guild.me).send_messages:

[maiden fable]

Come here and help others 👀

[sick birch]

Very tempting

[slate swan]

**Your BOT is also a MEMBER **

[maiden fable]

Actually it's not, technically

[maiden fable]

Help and I'll give your hood back

[slate swan]

oh no🗿

[unkempt canyon]

@slate swan Please don't try to ping @everyone or @here. Your message has been removed. If you believe this was a mistake, please let staff know!

[sick birch]

You want me to help you help someone else?

[slate swan]

member_count

[vast gale]

something about

• how to best store token
• how to best load token

[maiden fable]

Help Lodi 👀

[maiden fable]

What...

[sick birch]

https://github.com/python-discord/sir-robin/blob/main/bot/constants.py

[vast gale]

I mean, that's one way

but idk if a seperate file for the examples is the best strat

[slate swan]

sir robin

[sick birch]

A what?

[vast gale]

strategy

[sick birch]

No what do you mean by "seperate file for the examples"

[vast gale]

oh

[maiden fable]

U do know that emoji is cringe right?

[slate swan]

what isnt cringe to you

[maiden fable]

Wait, did the bot steal yr name or yr stole it's?

[vast gale]

I'm a disnake developer, and I'm working on the examples folder-- https://git.disnake.dev/disnake/tree/master/examples @sick birch

[maiden fable]

Meh

[slate swan]

on?

like subfolder

[vast gale]

rn i'm thinking of the best way to remove references to putting tokens directly in bot code

[slate swan]

[vast gale]

instead of this... https://github.com/DisnakeDev/disnake/blob/f329ea5037770a748e6fe3945983e56cd3f9e69b/examples/basic_bot.py#L79

[unkempt canyon]

examples/basic_bot.py line 79

bot.run("token")```

[slate swan]

auth_token maybe

but idk in the dev portal they show it as just token

[maiden fable]

Thanks for calling me that

[sick birch]

both, both is good

[maiden fable]

Bro, it's different. It's used for OAuth, not bots lol

[sick birch]

I see

[maiden fable]

Lmaoo

[slate swan]

I didn't call you anything

[slate swan]

what

[maiden fable]

Auth token

[slate swan]

?

[vast gale]

I'd much rather have something which either does

• from config import TOKEN, and tell the user to import that
• os.environ.get('BOT_TOKEN') but that would require explaining this is what env is
• perhaps just add a disclaimer above every bot.run that mentions the other techniques and links to a page on why tokens need to be secure
• other option, very open to suggestions

[sick birch]

Yeah the way I've always done it is how it's done in sir-robin

[maiden fable]

Nvm

[vast gale]

I do uh

• config.py file that's commited
• env file that the config file loads

yeah this https://github.com/python-discord/sir-robin/blob/f50bac50a3ba117557e6f1b1918f5c9dee385a8d/bot/constants.py#L14

well you can use the original afaik

i dont think tho

[vast gale]

inb4 everyone suggests a different lib

[final iron]

Don't use pycord

[slate swan]

😭

[sick birch]

No way, how'd you know?!

[slate swan]

arl called it😔

[final iron]

Save yourself a lot of trouble and use disnake

[vast gale]

I'm biased

[vast gale]

lemme guess, you use edpy and disnake

[sick birch]

nah i use discord.py and implement the features myself

[final iron]

One of the worst forks

[sage otter]

Imagine using edpy

[sick birch]

[vast gale]

[final iron]

Virgin fork user vs chad feature implementer

[vast gale]

I use disnake and implement the features for everyone

and fast too

[final iron]

arl you say why pycord is bad

🗿

[sick birch]

if they wanna use it I think we should let them

Just make them aware of the flaws

[final iron]

We should make a strict disnake only policy 🗿

[sick birch]

Inform instead of persuade

[sage otter]

I swear man. People shill disnake like it’s Jesus or something.

[final iron]

Disnake is better than jesus

[sage otter]

in reality it’s just like every other fork

[final iron]

🗿

[vast gale]

i mean, if you don't mind

• broken code
• lots of broken code
• minimal testing
• approvals by their own developers of some who don't even know python
  then its fine to use

[slate swan]

all dpy forks are bad

just use hikari lol

[vast gale]

[final iron]

[vast gale]

that's an ffmpeg wrapper lol

[maiden fable]

Yea

[vast gale]

@sick birch so do you actually still use raw dpy or was that a joke...?

[sage otter]

fairly sure he uses disnake

[final iron]

Robin seems like the person to implement the disnake features himself

[sick birch]

I did do it a bit

But I don't do bot dev that much anymore

[slate swan]

no

[sick birch]

I recently implemented modals myself using d.js if that counts

[slate swan]

robin is a chad he uses d.js

[sick birch]

i used it like twice

nah they're still active development

Honestly slash commands aren't that hard to listen to using discord.py

[slate swan]

why decos?

[sick birch]

The data's a bit messy/raw but you can clean that up yourself if you want

[sage otter]

https://github.com/python-discord/sir-robin/blob/f50bac50a3ba117557e6f1b1918f5c9dee385a8d/bot/exts/ping.py

Bro Robin what is this

[sick birch]

Before you say anything that wasn't me

[sage otter]

You have a whole cog dedicated to one command.

[slate swan]

👁️ 👁️

[sick birch]

why not ¯_(ツ)_/¯

[sage otter]

And you manually log inside the command

[slate swan]

🗿

[sick birch]

We'll probably add some other core features in there

and rename the cog and file

[vast gale]

imagine not having a standard logger/eval/ping/meta/etc commands smh

[orchid linden]

how can i make it so it's like

if member has muted role:
 remove all roles except muted role```

[sage otter]

if role in member.roles:
    await member.remove_roles([i for i in member.roles if i != role])
   
``` assuming role is the muted role

Filter out the mute role from the list so you don’t remove that obviously

You can do that list comp

[maiden fable]

U do know that remove_roles() can take a list of roles, right?

[sick birch]

if role in member.roles:
    member.remove_roles(member.roles)

[sage otter]

Oh crazy

[maiden fable]

Better than doing API calls repeatedly lol

[sage otter]

My bad then

[maiden fable]

That's why it's named remove_roles

[sage otter]

First time boys. I’m new here.

[sick birch]

Nah it's good

[maiden fable]

Yea yea

[sage otter]

@maiden fable better?

[vast gale]

forgot the await smh

[sick birch]

oops

[vast gale]

[sick birch]

hello I am running a discord bot on repl.it with a flask server and uptime robot pinging it, i have done this with another bot in the past and that bot has been running for months, but this new bot I made goes down every hour and I keep getting this in the console(I'm assuming from every ping i get from uptimerobot):
[27/Feb/2022 04:39:00] "GET / HTTP/1.1" 200 -
Any ideas as to why this is happening?

[sick birch]

perhaps from discord import DiscordException?

[sick birch]

200 is an OK no content, what's wrong with it?

[half flower]

The bot doesn't run 24/7 it goes offline

[sick birch]

That's replit for ya

[half flower]

unlike my other repl.it bot that has been running for months and still is

[sick birch]

Heavily recommend you switch off replit and find an actual host

yeah that's not right

[vast gale]

yeah, pycord screwed that up

[wary zenith]

im trying to use motor, and im wonder if this code would work for motor or if something is missing? ```py
motor.motor_asyncio.MotorClient(key)

async def open_account(user: discord.Member):
try:
post = {"_id": str(user.id), "Balance": 0}
await cluster.Botswag.Accounts.insert_one(post)
except:
pass

@client.command(aliases=["bal"])
async def balance(ctx):
await open_account(ctx.author)
embed = discord.Embed(title=f"{ctx.author.name.title()}'s Balance",
description=await cluster.Botswag.Accounts.find_one({"_id": str(ctx.author.id)})['Balance'],
color=discord.Color.green())
await ctx.send(embed=embed)```

[vast gale]

its shadowed and importing discord.errors imports discord.commands.errors

[wary zenith]

discord.commands.errors should work

[wary zenith]

im not sure if this should be here or in databases

[maiden fable]

@languid wagon u installed py-cord?

There u go

It uses the discord namespace

So there are these folders made for each module

disnake modules makes a folder named disnake

discord.py makes a folder named discord

But py-cord uses the discord folder only

So that can result in errors if u had discord.py installed

Uninstall dpy, py-cord then reinstall py-cord

Weird... try doing pip show py-cord

[final iron]

Just use disnake 🗿

[maiden fable]

Hmmmm and what's the error?

Ah

!d disnake.Permissions.moderate_members

[unkempt canyon]

disnake.Permissions.moderate\_members

Returns True if a user can perform limited moderation actions (timeout).

New in version 2.3.

[maiden fable]

They haven't implemented it

[vast gale]

I wonder if its one of their broken pushes

[wary zenith]

@slate swan i used motor and im still getting this result

[slate swan]

hows your internet speed and do yu have something blocking

[maiden fable]

U do know Python is easier, right? 👀

[wary zenith]

my internet is kind of slow, and as for blocking, not to my knowledge

motor.motor_asyncio.MotorClient(key)

async def open_account(user: discord.Member):
    try:
        post = {"_id": str(user.id), "Balance": 0}
        await cluster.Botswag.Accounts.insert_one(post)

    await ctx.send(embed=embed)

[maiden fable]

What's the issue?

[wary zenith]

the bot is lagging

[maiden fable]

Not a code issue, it's an internet issue

[wary zenith]

^

[maiden fable]

Host the same code on a VPS and u gonna get about a 100 MS ping more or less, depending on the region the VPS is hosted in

[wary zenith]

dont vps cost money tho?

[maiden fable]

Yea they do

[wary zenith]

oof

guess im gonna have to lag then 😂

[maiden fable]

Hahaha well there are free services too, but they suck

[wary zenith]

one of my friends has a vps, ill see if i can ask for access or smth

[maiden fable]

Well, it will be easier if he installs pterodactyl panel/puffer panel on it

[wary zenith]

ic

[maiden fable]

Smh typos go brrr

[spring flax]

oracle gets you that ping?

[halcyon onyx]

hello

heeeeeeeeeelpppppp!

[maiden fable]

I'm getting 97 MS rn

[maiden fable]

Sure! What's up

[spring flax]

woah

let me shoe what i get

[halcyon onyx]

how i do multiple commands at the same time

[maiden fable]

Wait, u ain't getting that?

[sick birch]

VPSs usually let you pick the region where it's hosted, so you can get really good ping, like < 10 if you tried

[halcyon onyx]

when the bot in this loop everything stop working

[spring flax]

constant at around 500

[maiden fable]

Hmm, I don't really know... What's the region of yr VPS?

[spring flax]

let me check

[sick birch]

sleep() blocks the entire event loop

[maiden fable]

Yea use asyncio.sleep

[spring flax]

i get 0.19962728797690943

[halcyon onyx]

ill try

[maiden fable]

Robin, do u hate me? Cz I do this:

import asyncio as time

async def smth(...):
    await time.sleep(10) 

[maiden fable]

That's 200 MS

[spring flax]

wait wth

[sick birch]

please cease all contact with me

[spring flax]

let me check my ping command

[maiden fable]

👀

[wary zenith]

why

[maiden fable]

What about yr hood which is with me-

[wary zenith]

why would you do that

[maiden fable]

I just wanted to code differently 🥺

[sick birch]

i dont want it anymore considering the kind of person who has it

it's kind of like import disnake as discord

[maiden fable]

[maiden fable]

Or... import disnake as pycord

=D

[sick birch]

that's like a wolf dressed as a sheep

[maiden fable]

Wait, I know THE BEST: import hikari as nextcord

Ezzz

[sick birch]

very scary

[maiden fable]

Imagine

@sick birch let's just use raw aiohttp module instead of all this wrapper shit, what say?

[sick birch]

that's what i've been doing lmao

[spring flax]

this is my ping command

@bot.command(brief=['Ping', None, 'Displays the bot ping', '=ping', None])
@trial_moderator_only()
async def ping(ctx):
    start = time.time()
    message = await ctx.send("Ping!")
    end = time.time()
    duration = (end - start) * 1000
    await message.edit(content='Pong! `{:.2f}` ms'.format(duration))

[maiden fable]

Oh

[maiden fable]

Why...

[sick birch]

why not ctx.bot.latency

[wary zenith]

"import asyncio as tornado"

[maiden fable]

import asyncio as totallynotyoursussyasyncio

[halcyon onyx]

hello

[wary zenith]

hello

[sick birch]

hello

[halcyon onyx]

i tried it doesnt work

[vast gale]

oh no

[wary zenith]

what

[maiden fable]

What

[vast gale]

i regret everything

[maiden fable]

I regret joining discord

[sick birch]

why is that so?

[vast gale]

brb deleting github

[wary zenith]

💀

[halcyon onyx]

i have 2 def ok and i want the bot do the 2 tasks

[maiden fable]

Because it has made my life heller hell

[halcyon onyx]

at the same time

[wary zenith]

just send code bro 💀

[vast gale]

i uh may have looked at source of a library and find some of the decisions quite questionable at best

[maiden fable]

Meh, I can't get off it since I got better friends in here than irl

[maiden fable]

Which lib? 👀

Don't tell me it's hikari 👀

[wary zenith]

anyone seen random library questionable variable names?

[maiden fable]

?

[halcyon onyx]

@client.command()
#Getting the input from the user on discord text chat
async def set_timer(ctx, arg):
am = discord.AllowedMentions(
users=True
)
arg = str(arg)
await ctx.send(f"timer set to {arg}")
#This to get your real time
while True:
now = datetime.now()
final = now.strftime('%I:%M') #12-Hour Format
#Final = now.strftime(%H:%M') #24-hour format
asyncio.sleep(1)
if final == arg:
await ctx.send(ctx.author.mention, allowed_mentions=am)
break

the code is working fine

[maiden fable]

!code thanks

[unkempt canyon]

Here's how to format Python code on Discord:

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

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

[vast gale]

to note: this is a widely used library, and the problem I find with the code being questionable concerns me for all of the efforts people in this community make to try and help people have good practices

[halcyon onyx]

but the bot stuck on the loop till it finish

[wary zenith]

skull

[maiden fable]

I mean that's a common word bruv

[spring flax]

yeah idk i haven't paid much attention to that not sure what i even had as my command but what's so bad about this? i did change to bot latency but still want to know

[maiden fable]

If u don't take it the other way

[wary zenith]

ic

[maiden fable]

It's used as an alternative for and in English (at least for me)

[sick birch]

Don't think it's accurate

[maiden fable]

Because... the latency is different with that command. The bot takes 200 MS to send the request to send that message to discord, so that's mostly wrong

[sick birch]

.latency is the time between HEARTBEAT and HEARTBEAT_ACK which accurately says the latency time of the websocket

[maiden fable]

Yea

[sick birch]

timing a await ctx.send() includes overhead

[wary zenith]

would it be much of a rewrite of my code if i switched from discord.py to interactions.py?

[maiden fable]

Idk

I don't do bot deving anymore

[wary zenith]

lol

[vast gale]

[maiden fable]

Not until voice receive becomes a thing in disnake (arl 👀)

[vast gale]

but also yes, they aren't a fork

[maiden fable]

@sick birch voice receive implement when in your custom wrapper?

[sick birch]

man i haven't even looked at that part of it yet

[boreal ravine]

why do you wanna switch?

[maiden fable]

The problem is, the endpoint is undocumented ;-;

[wary zenith]

interactions

[maiden fable]

Best of luck scrolling through discord.js's source

[wary zenith]

discord.py has no interactions

[boreal ravine]

It does have interactions

[slate swan]

buttons?

[sick birch]

wouldn't it come through websocket

[wary zenith]

questionable naming practices but that's okay

[slate swan]

useletters so you would save some bytes🗿

[wary zenith]

we dont talk abt random lib

[sick birch]

come on it's not 1995 where we use floppy drives that have 14 megabytes of storage

[wary zenith]

the fact that thats just 23 yrs ago 💀

unless terrible math

[sick birch]

slightly off

[wary zenith]

prolly 27

[sick birch]

my point is i don't think it's worth sacrificing readbility for that little bit of saved storage

[slate swan]

100 pennies is a dollar 1000bytes is a kb 1024bytes is a kb in windows know your value🗿

[sick birch]

but if you wanted to nothing stopping you

[wary zenith]

!e py print(1995 + 27)

[unkempt canyon]

@wary zenith :white_check_mark: Your eval job has completed with return code 0.

2022

[wary zenith]

ahhh

[slate swan]

this man really needed to do the math in python😭

[wary zenith]

its 12:46 ok 😭

[sick birch]

ok

[halcyon onyx]

hello

[slate swan]

hello

[halcyon onyx]

heeeeeeeellllllllllllllp!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[slate swan]

with?

[halcyon onyx]

see i have 2 def ok and i want to run them at the same time

[slate swan]

you have 2 methods?

you would just call a method inside of the method

[halcyon onyx]

#Mention Bot:

@client.command()
async def set_timer(ctx, arg):
am = discord.AllowedMentions(
users=True
)
arg = str(arg)
await ctx.send(f"timer set to {arg}")
while True:
now = datetime.now()
final = now.strftime('%I:%M') #12-Hour Format
#Final = now.strftime(%H:%M') #24-hour format
asyncio.sleep(1)
if final == arg:
await ctx.send(ctx.author.mention, allowed_mentions=am)
break

see

the bot stuck on while loop

when the bot doing this while true everything stop working

[slate swan]

you should use a loop for a timer lol

[boreal ravine]

Loops can be blocking sometimes

[halcyon onyx]

it's not blocking

[boreal ravine]

Why are you even using a while loop?

[halcyon onyx]

it's working fine

[boreal ravine]

You just said it was blocking

[halcyon onyx]

the is another way!

[halcyon onyx]

ahhhhhhhhhh!

[slate swan]

use a db and store the time and just check the time each minute

if you want to make a timer

[halcyon onyx]

yessssssssssssss

if the timer is work everything in the bot stop working till the bot finish

[slate swan]

use my method

[halcyon onyx]

ill try

[halcyon onyx]

how

[slate swan]

you store a timestamp

[halcyon onyx]

like i have to split the code in 2 def right?

[slate swan]

in 2 methods? i doubt it

[halcyon onyx]

i dident sleep two days to fix that

i cant even type

[slate swan]

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

[hushed galleon]

btw you didnt await the asyncio.sleep so it doesnt actually yield execution back to the event loop

[halcyon onyx]

i think no one understand the issue

[maiden fable]

👀

@halcyon onyx what's the issue?

[slim ibex]

idk about that infinite loop

And what @hushed galleon said, await your asyncio.sleep

[halcyon onyx]

when the bot in the while loop the other loops stop working

[hushed galleon]

besides the missing await, their infinite loop is mostly alright

[maiden fable]

Mind showing code?

[halcyon onyx]

ofc

[hushed galleon]

we replied to their code twice

[maiden fable]

It's fine, lemme see

i remove it

[slate swan]

💀 the unban command...

[maiden fable]

I smell Lucas

[halcyon onyx]

im working on it

[maiden fable]

I know of a simpler way

[slate swan]

f strings and format😔

[halcyon onyx]

give me it

[slim ibex]

!code

[unkempt canyon]

Here's how to format Python code on Discord:

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

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

[wary zenith]

🗿

[maiden fable]

user = discord.Object(id-of-the-person) 
await ctx.guild.unban(user) 

Ezzz

[slate swan]

make it a one liner bozo

[maiden fable]

Stop it. Then code it yourself

[slate swan]

yeah yeah make it a one liner or else🗿

[halcyon onyx]

but there is hope to fix main issue 😥😥

[slate swan]

What's the issue tho

[maiden fable]

Qulx be like: Read the message history dude. I'm tired of explaining repeatedly ffs

[halcyon onyx]

when the bot on the loop everything stop working

[slate swan]

You can just asyncio.sleep(arg)

instead of looping every second

[halcyon onyx]

im done

[maiden fable]

Uhhh, just use tasks?

[slate swan]

and make sure the arg is an integer

[halcyon onyx]

yes

[slate swan]

Would require a database :0

[wary zenith]

dmas

[slate swan]

Or cache atleast

[maiden fable]

Meh, my brain isn't working rn anyways so ig ignore me lmao

[slate swan]

👁️ 👁️

Okimii's smart

[halcyon onyx]

ill try

[wary zenith]

why your discord look so nasty 💀

can you do an async lambda?

[slate swan]

I'm using optimised mode theme

you can cache it with a dict but if the bot restarts bye bye timer

[wary zenith]

eww lmao

[halcyon onyx]

my search history explain it?

[slate swan]

its 9:30 am 😂😂

[slate swan]

Cause Twitter implements it
Pokeapi does not have a strict limit , but they request users to not put too much pressure on the servers 🤣

Well that makes sense since it's a RESTapi

[slate swan]

time zones exist

[slate swan]

[halcyon onyx]

on middle east its soo cold 95f, how u live on USA

[slate swan]

[slate swan]

and?

[slate swan]

so the api is just used to access a db?

[slate swan]

yea ofcourse

just the Pokemon database

[sick birch]

i mean, that's what i do for most of my projects

tooling for databases and APIs are rich in javascript so many people do do that

How to make the bot send error message if user doesnt have role

[wary zenith]

uh

[maiden fable]

!d discord.ext.commands.CheckFailure

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ext.commands.CheckFailure

exception discord.ext.commands.CheckFailure(message=None, *args)```
Exception raised when the predicates in [`Command.checks`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.Command.checks "discord.ext.commands.Command.checks") have failed.

This inherits from [`CommandError`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.CommandError "discord.ext.commands.CommandError")

[maiden fable]

Use this

[wary zenith]

failure*

my typing speed is negative since my wrist got sprained

[slate swan]

try getting both of them broken, its F.U.N.

anyways, back to topic

[maiden fable]

Wasn't expected from u

[compact eagle]

yo i got a discord bot rn, and its got this at the end

await ctx.send(embed=e)
``` after an embed, can this somehow make it so it replies to the user initating the cmd

[stray carbon]

@client.command()
@commands.has_role(848230687508922430)
exception discord.ext.commands.CheckFailure(message="You must have \<@&848230687508922430> to use this command.", *args)
async def test(ctx):
  await ctx.send('Done!')

this?

[wary zenith]

no

[compact eagle]

how can i make it so the bot will reply to the user that initiated the command?

[stray carbon]

ctx.reply

[wary zenith]

like this: py @test.error async def test_error(ctx, error): if isinstance(error, discord.ext.commands.CheckFailure): await ctx.reply("You must have \<@&848230687508922430> to use this command.")

[compact eagle]

lmao i was guessing that ty

[stray carbon]

oh

[slate swan]

Is correct, but commands.MissingRole would be more accurate

Since CheckFailure means any kind of check failures

[compact eagle]

e = discord.Embed(title=f'**Profile Link**',url=f'https://roblox.com/users/{userid}',color=0x00ff80)
``` so i have that up here but wanna make it look like this, how can i do that?

[pliant compass]

Can I make my bot edit a message that someone sent?

[compact eagle]

in the code i showed, Profile Link comes just as blue with url

[boreal ravine]

!d discord.Embed.add_field use hyperlinks

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Embed.add\_field

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

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

[slate swan]

Bot can only edit its own message

[slate swan]

It's a field ( kayle sent the method) , you can do the hyperlink thing like this [text to appear](url to redirect to)

[pliant compass]

Thanks

[compact eagle]

can u type what u mean pls im dumb

[slate swan]

Click Here is how you make the hyperlink

[stray carbon]

Is it possible to do same but instead of role,keep manage_server permissions

[slate swan]

!d discord.ext.commands.has_permissions

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ext.commands.has\_permissions

@discord.ext.commands.has_permissions(**perms)```
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 has all of the permissions necessary.

Note that this check operates on the current channel permissions, not the guild wide permissions.

The permissions passed in must be exactly like the properties shown under [`discord.Permissions`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/api.html#discord.Permissions "discord.Permissions").

This check raises a special exception, [`MissingPermissions`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.MissingPermissions "discord.ext.commands.MissingPermissions") that is inherited from [`CheckFailure`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.CheckFailure "discord.ext.commands.CheckFailure").

[stray carbon]

oh

@discord.ext.commands.has_permissions(manage_server=true)?

[slate swan]

works

Capital T in true tho

And it's guild, not server

[compact eagle]

how can i refer to the person who sent the command in an embed ?

[wary zenith]

yes

[vale wing]

manage_guild*

[wary zenith]

but you need commands.has_permissions decorator

[vale wing]

!d discord.ext.commands.Context check attributes of this class

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ext.commands.Context

class discord.ext.commands.Context(*, message, bot, view, args=..., kwargs=..., prefix=None, command=None, invoked_with=None, invoked_parents=..., invoked_subcommand=None, ...)```
Represents the context in which a command is being invoked under.

This class contains a lot of meta data to help you understand more about the invocation context. This class is not created manually and is instead passed around to commands as the first parameter.

This class implements the [`Messageable`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/api.html#discord.abc.Messageable "discord.abc.Messageable") ABC.

[slate swan]

Context/Message.author

[stray carbon]

@client.command()
async def test(ctx, error):
  if isinstance(error, discord.ext.commands.has_permissions(manage_guild=True)):
    await ctx.reply("You do not have permissions to use this command.")

[compact eagle]

like,

requested = discord.ext.commands.Context.author
e.set_footer(text='Requested by {requested}')
``` ????

[vale wing]

The what

[compact eagle]

e being the embed

[vale wing]

May I ask what's your py knowledge

[compact eagle]

not alot im just tryna make a simple bot

[vale wing]

Well I recommend to learn basics of python first

Like OOP

[stray carbon]

is this correct?

[vale wing]

How are you going to provide an error to your command

[stray carbon]

idk

[vale wing]

What you tryna do anyways

Error handler or smth

[maiden fable]

Oh your nitro ended, sad

[stray carbon]

im trying make cmd which requires manage guild perms

[boreal ravine]

you need the discord.ext.commands.Context instance, not the class

[stray carbon]

@client.command()
async def test(ctx, error):
  if isinstance(error, discord.ext.commands.has_permissions(manage_guild=True)):
    await ctx.reply("You do not have permissions to use this command.")
  else:
    await ctx.reply('done')

maybe like this?

[vale wing]

Yes the fun thing is it was gifted by discord

[maiden fable]

Wait what

[stray carbon]

raise MissingRequiredArgument(param)
discord.ext.commands.errors.MissingRequiredArgument: error is a required argument that is missing.

[vale wing]

Ok and you need an error handler for that which you can implement with usage of bot.listen or commands.Cog.listener depending on do you use cogs or not

[stray carbon]

how?

im confused :/

[vale wing]

!d discord.ext.commands.Bot.listen

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ext.commands.Bot.listen

@listen(name=None)```
A decorator that registers another function as an external event listener. Basically this allows you to listen to multiple events from different places e.g. such as [`on_ready()`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/api.html#discord.on_ready "discord.on_ready")

The functions being listened to must be a [coroutine](https://docs.python.org/3/library/asyncio-task.html#coroutine "(in Python v3.9)").

Example...

[stray carbon]

@bot.listen()
async def test(ctx, error):
if isinstance(error, discord.ext.commands.has_permissions(manage_guild=True)):

but how to set it req for cmd

😅

[slate swan]

@bot.command()
@bot.has_permission('ADMINISTRATOR')
async def ban(ctx, member : nextcord.Member, *, reason):
    await member.ban(reason=reason)
    embed = nextcord.Embed(title="Ban", description="mentioned user banned.")
    await ctx.send(embed=embed)```

[slate swan]

Is that correct?

[maiden fable]

No

has_permissions(administrator=True)

[slate swan]

Oh, thanks

[stray carbon]

.

[maiden fable]

Huh?

[stray carbon]

im confused

im trying to make command which requires manage_guild perms and sends a message if user doesnt have it

[slate swan]

Did u enabled intent in ur bot app?

[stray carbon]

yes i did

[slate swan]

Oh

[compact eagle]

getting the user of the person who sent the cmd rn,

author = commands.Context.author
    e.set_footer(text='Requested by ' + str({author}))
``` is what im using at the end of my embed and im getting this:

```txt
Requested by {<discord.utils.cached_property object at 0x0000019928A9FDC0>}

[stray carbon]

i didnt try this yet

[slate swan]

Just watch tutorial

[stray carbon]

is this code complete?

[slate swan]

Maybe that help xd

[stray carbon]

:/ ok

[slate swan]

U want make error handler, right?

[slate swan]

I can help

[stray carbon]

        pass

    elif isinstance(error, send_help):

    # If any other error occurs, prints to console.
    else:

Yea

Don't copy R. Danny's eval plz

[stray carbon]

i found it from github

https://github.com/cree-py/RemixBot/blob/master/bot.py

not R.Danny

[maiden fable]

Still, don't copy code

!d exec use this (:

[unkempt canyon]

exec

exec(object[, globals[, locals]])```
This function supports dynamic execution of Python code. *object* must be either a string or a code object. If it is a string, the string is parsed as a suite of Python statements which is then executed (unless a syntax error occurs). [1](https://docs.python.org/3/library/functions.html#id2) If it is a code object, it is simply executed. In all cases, the code that’s executed is expected to be valid as file input (see the section [File input](https://docs.python.org/3/reference/toplevel_components.html#file-input) in the Reference Manual). Be aware that the [`nonlocal`](https://docs.python.org/3/reference/simple_stmts.html#nonlocal), [`yield`](https://docs.python.org/3/reference/simple_stmts.html#yield), and [`return`](https://docs.python.org/3/reference/simple_stmts.html#return) statements may not be used outside of function definitions even within the context of code passed to the [`exec()`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/functions.html#exec "exec") function. The return value is `None`.

[stray carbon]

just this?

[cosmic agate]

hi guys
which is the best hosting service for bot?

[maiden fable]

That's the main thing which is used, yes

[maiden fable]

U ready to spend?

[cosmic agate]

no free pls

[alpine furnace]

Your computer

Lol

[cosmic agate]

vscode is good but

my computer slow as heck

[alpine furnace]

Just run it in a new terminal

[cosmic agate]

what about heroku?

[alpine furnace]

Discord bots don’t need many resources

No that’s not good

[cosmic agate]

XD my computer is literally a celeron at 1.6 ghz and 2 gb ram

[cosmic agate]

why though?

[alpine furnace]

Literally heroku machines are 4x worse

And repl.it too

[cosmic agate]

but its online service

easy for me too

[cosmic agate]

thats trash

[alpine furnace]

Because it’s a pain to just put it on there and get it running

Not to mention you don’t even get a full month of free hours

[cosmic agate]

really?

[alpine furnace]

Yes

[cosmic agate]

hmm

[alpine furnace]

Why not just host it on your computer

[cosmic agate]

so any other

[alpine furnace]

Uses like 50mb ram

And 0.1% cpu

[cosmic agate]

vscode the app takes alot of resources

i checked

[alpine furnace]

You don’t need vscode to run python, just run it in a new terminal

[sick birch]

AWS/google cloud hosting/microsoft services

[alpine furnace]

Shift click in explorer + open powershell

Then you can type in python and it works

[cosmic agate]

i used to use epikhost but they stopped free service

[cosmic agate]

ok ill see about it

[sick birch]

electronjs what did you expect

[cosmic agate]

?

[sick birch]

vscode runs on electron.js which can be slow

[cosmic agate]

hmm

[maiden fable]

Don't use PowerShell

[sick birch]

all you need is a terminal to run python

[alpine furnace]

It’s literally the same thing as cmd

Except, you know, the powershell language

[final shard]

it runs till u close pc

?

[sick birch]

alacritty 💪

[alpine furnace]

But you only need to run python in it so it doesn’t make any difference. Might have to change your execution policy to activate your venv, but whatever

[cosmic agate]

why may i ask?

[alpine furnace]

I’ve never customized my Linux machines

Everything is default

[cosmic agate]

actually ive heard that powershell is trash too

[maiden fable]

If someone gains access to yr bot, he will be able to run shell commands on yr command and powershell has admin access

[final shard]

What about Docker Containers?

[cosmic agate]

?

[sick birch]

very good idea

[cosmic agate]

hmm ok

[sick birch]

containerize your applications so you don't have to deal with window's garbage command prompt or powershell

[alpine furnace]

How exactly

[maiden fable]

Idk, some eval command?

[sick birch]

• docker is always good to know

[alpine furnace]

You’re still going to be running docker run in powershell to actually start your bot

[final shard]

@cosmic agate maybe u should try docker

[alpine furnace]

Lol

[cosmic agate]

hmm

but my pc

[sick birch]

better than managing venvs, python versions, files, etc in powershell

[final shard]

u can use other pc

[cosmic agate]

you know what, imma build a new pc

[alpine furnace]

sure, that’s not the issue here either way ¯_(ツ)_/¯

It’s literally one command to start your bot @cosmic agate

[sick birch]

if you're just gonna run python file.py then sure

[cosmic agate]

ive been saving up so hopefully it will run on that

[sick birch]

you said you had 4gb of ram atm?

you should be fine if you're just running a bot then

[cosmic agate]

i am GONNA build a new pc

my friend gifted me a rx 550 but i dont know ill runn on that

[alpine furnace]

I’m running a discord bot in a docker container on a trash vps, thing takes 20mb ram according to docker stats

You’re fine

[sick birch]

including docker overhead?

[cosmic agate]

?

[alpine furnace]

Yep, if docker stats includes that

[sick birch]

wow

[final shard]

so i suppose you all are giving a positive review on docker

[alpine furnace]

It’s pretty cool actually

[sick birch]

why would we not?

[final shard]

I see

[cosmic agate]

XD ig yeah

[halcyon onyx]

hey

[sick birch]

docker is awesome

[cosmic agate]

hi

[alpine furnace]

I have two other backend services and it communicates through grpc, though, so the bot just formats responses from those and doesn’t actually do much lifting itself

[sick birch]

Ah, bot as a front end?

[alpine furnace]

Yeah, basically

Lol, it’s a good strategy

[sick birch]

Seperation of concerns we call it

[halcyon onyx]

i have a while true if the bot on the while loop everything stop working till the bot finish any fix?

[alpine furnace]

Yepp

[sick birch]

Backend heavy lifting on one thing, frontend prettying up on another

[sick birch]

as long as you're awaiting inside the while True

you yield control back to the event loop

[alpine furnace]

Yep and I can just expose an api for analytics stuff or for users to view

[compact eagle]

get username of the person who initiated the command? im having trouble

[alpine furnace]

Might be a good graphql learning opportunity

[halcyon onyx]

i have control of the loop i break when i finish

[sick birch]

very cool, i'm doing basically the same thing

[sick birch]

code?

[alpine furnace]

ctx.author or ctx.user if it’s an interaction object

[halcyon onyx]

@client.command()
async def set_timer(ctx, arg):
am = discord.AllowedMentions(
users=True
)
arg = str(arg)
await ctx.send(f"timer set to {arg}")
while True:
now = datetime.now()
final = now.strftime('%I:%M') #12-Hour Format
#Final = now.strftime(%H:%M') #24-hour format
sleep(1)
if final == arg:
await ctx.send(ctx.author.mention, allowed_mentions=am)
break

[alpine furnace]

Check your library’s docs

[sick birch]

sleep() is blocking

use await asyncio.sleep() instead

[halcyon onyx]

it's not the code working fine

[sick birch]

yes but it's still blocking

[alpine furnace]

Ohh that’s sick

[halcyon onyx]

ok

[stray carbon]

@client.event
async def on_command_error(ctx, error):

    send_help = (commands.MissingRequiredArgument, commands.BadArgument, commands.TooManyArguments, commands.UserInputError)

    if isinstance(error, commands.CommandNotFound):  # fails silently
        await ctx.send(f'{error}.')

    elif isinstance(error, send_help):
        _help = await send_cmd_help(ctx)
        await ctx.send(embed=_help)

    elif isinstance(error, commands.CommandOnCooldown):
        await ctx.send(f'This command is on cooldown. Please wait {error.retry_after:.2f}s.')

    elif isinstance(error, commands.MissingPermissions):
        await ctx.send('You do not have the permissions to use this command.')
    # If any other error occurs, prints to console.
    else:
         print(''.join(traceback.format_exception(type(error), error, error.__traceback__)))

NameError: name 'traceback' is not defined

[halcyon onyx]

do u have fix for main issue

[sick birch]

what's the main issue?

[stray carbon]

how to fix

[sick birch]

the bot stopping everything until loop's done?

[halcyon onyx]

the bot can do one job only

[halcyon onyx]

yesssssssssssssss

[sick birch]

yes, because you're using sleep()

it holds up the event loop

[halcyon onyx]

i will remove it

[sick birch]

replace it with asyncio.sleep()

[halcyon onyx]

still

same thing

[halcyon onyx]

i tryid that

[compact eagle]

using .author i get stuff like

{<User id=580891703133732917 name='carterfr' discriminator='0001' bot=False>}

anyway i could do sm like

name = author['name']
disc = author['discriminator']
total = '{name}#{disc}'
``` idk 😂

[stray carbon]

[alpine furnace]

That’s a User object.. you would need to check the docs to see all of its fields

However for your case you could do str(ctx.author)

[compact eagle]

ok lemme try rq

it returns

{<User id=580891703133732917 name='carterfr' discriminator='0001' bot=False>}
``` when i str it

[alpine furnace]

Is that in a set or something

[alpine furnace]

Seems like, well, traceback isn’t defined, so import traceback

[stray carbon]

oh

[compact eagle]

ok i did this but it returned: ```py
{'carterfr#0001'}

[halcyon onyx]

@client.command()
async def set_timer(ctx, arg):
am = discord.AllowedMentions(
users=True
)
arg = str(arg)
await ctx.send(f"timer set to {arg}")
while True:
now = datetime.now()
final = now.strftime('%I:%M') #12-Hour Format
#Final = now.strftime(%H:%M') #24-hour format
if final == arg:
await ctx.send(ctx.author.mention, allowed_mentions=am)
break

there is something blocking where it's?

on while loop

[alpine furnace]

Seems like you’re adding it to a collection of some sort

What are you printing exactly

[compact eagle]

its the footer of an embed,
Requested by str(ctx.author)

[sullen linden]

im not sure how to diagnose my problem. im working with interactions in nextcord and mentions. Im printing out the mentions and its None even though the contents show it has some .. and it works fine in two other servers my bots in, just not a new third server

[compact eagle]

i fixed it easily i put an f after text=

[alpine furnace]

Oh, that was it

It wasn’t a format string

[halcyon onyx]

any one can help please?

[quick gust]

ask?

[halcyon onyx]

there is something blocking async

@client.command()
async def set_timer(ctx, arg):
am = discord.AllowedMentions(
users=True
)
arg = str(arg)
await ctx.send(f"timer set to {arg}")
while True:
now = datetime.now()
final = now.strftime('%I:%M') #12-Hour Format
#Final = now.strftime(%H:%M') #24-hour format
if final == arg:
await ctx.send(ctx.author.mention, allowed_mentions=am)
break

where

[sullen linden]

my guess is the "if final == arg:" is never set as true
there might be a better way to do that with tasks

[halcyon onyx]

can u give me it please
