discord-bots

[sick birch]

It's imperative that you reset your bot's token

As fast as you can

[green veldt]

i have done that

when i used my play command of music, i think it left after that

its still there in my main server

​```No Category:
giveaway
gstart
help Shows this message
reroll

Type $help command for more info on a command.
You can also type $help category for more info on a category.```
why does it show this when i do $help

[slate swan]

thats the default help command

[modest plover]

It's Disnake, not dpy

[green veldt]

i want to remove it

[slate swan]

use the help_command kwarg in your bot constructor and set it to None

!d discord.ext.commands.Bot.help_command

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ext.commands.Bot.help\_command

The help command implementation to use. This can be dynamically set at runtime. To remove the help command pass None. For more information on implementing a help command, see Help Commands.

[green veldt]

ok thanks

[slate swan]

use help_command=None

yw

[slate swan]

what i just gave lmao

[green veldt]

outside of listeners?

[slate swan]

in the bot constructor.

[green veldt]

client = ....

[slate swan]

in your bot variable/ class instance

[slate swan]

yes

[green veldt]

there?

[slate swan]

yes

[green veldt]

yes got it thx

[slate swan]

variable naming and useless variable🗿

[green veldt]

lol

the bot is responding but its sending this

discord.ext.commands.errors.CommandNotFound: Command "help" is not found```

[stone beacon]

asynchronous synchronous multisinglethreaded python script to run a discord bot from mars

Pleasant goodnight to all

[slate swan]

because its not found you have to make one

[slate swan]

Goodnight

[echo wasp]

1. I have a question how would i make this command check if there are more people reacted then just it self if not send a message saying not enough reactions to determine a winner? code: https://paste.pythondiscord.com/zujewocefe

[vast gale]

figured it out: ws is None, solution is waiting until connection

or over-engineering it like me

[echo wasp]

2. I have another question can i keep using discord.py for the non slash commands stuff then use diskord for slash commands or will the libraries intervein and break?

[boreal ravine]

it'll probably break

[echo wasp]

have you tried it before it is a fork off of discord.py

[boreal ravine]

nope

but if you wanna make slash commands in discord.py use slash_util

!pypi slash_util

[unkempt canyon]

slash-util v1.3.3.1

A small script allowing the use of application commands with discord.py v2.0

[echo wasp]

thank you

[boreal ravine]

👍

Infomation regarding*

[echo wasp]

can you answer my first question?

3. and my third question is i have 4 different questions the 4th question is if it is required gw or not can i have it send a message after it posts it in the other channel? if so how i tried and failed

[echo wasp]

lol i didn't see that and there are 2 seprate questions in a message

and look again at number 1 here #discord-bots message

[quick gust]

they already answered u in the dpy server...

[quick gust]

^

[echo wasp]

right i read over thinking of the other

but thanks

any idea on the third question not in the dpy server?

[green veldt]

code?

[cosmic agate]

?

[green veldt]

give code

part of the code where error is occuring

[cosmic agate]

its saying that its line 511 but line 511 does not exist

[green veldt]

that isnt exactly line 511

[cosmic agate]

wdym?

[green veldt]

dude

[cosmic agate]

i went through files and saw something named client.py

[green veldt]

where have you written strip?

[green veldt]

those are your files?

you must have made

[cosmic agate]

yes my vscode

i made my code in replit

[green veldt]

are you using someone's command handler

[cosmic agate]

downloaded it

and used it on vscode

hmmm

[green veldt]

?

[cosmic agate]

?

[quick gust]

send full traceback

u are probably looking at the wrong place

the line number is usually near the top

[cosmic agate]

but client.py has over 1000 lines of code

[quick gust]

not the code

the error traceback

[cosmic agate]

ok sir

https://paste.pythondiscord.com/qotuqunofi

@quick gust

[visual island]

[cosmic agate]

oh ok

[maiden fable]

Hmm

[broken cave]

I want to convert this to python

how do I do it

this is actually for a football command in discord.py

[maiden fable]

And code?

[slate swan]

can i ask pycord help here

[manic wing]

yes but good luck getting a response 😳

[dull terrace]

How do you trigger functions when a class variable is changed? I.e.

class butt:
    def __init__(self, big, small, smells):
        self.big = big
        self.small = small
        self.smells = smells
    If self.big or self.small changes:
        print('changed')

test = butt(True, True, True)
### changed is printed

test.small = False
### changed is printed```

[manic wing]

im on mobile but have you done If with a capital I? also go to #python-discussion

[dull terrace]

On mobile. Auto capitalising

[sick birch]

Not a native way I believe unfortunately

[dull terrace]

💩

[sick birch]

You could be looking for __setattr__() though

!e

class SomeClass:
  def __setattr__(self, name, value):
    print("changed")
instance = SomeClass()
instance.attribute = "some attribute"

[unkempt canyon]

@sick birch :white_check_mark: Your eval job has completed with return code 0.

changed

[alpine furnace]

@property you can do some hack with this

Oh yeah, and setattr too

[unkempt canyon]

Hey @broken cave!

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

[sick birch]

If only python had a nice way like React.js has dependency tracking for useEffect() 🙁

[dull terrace]

God freaking

[sick birch]

You're forgetting the underscores

setattr takes underscores as well

[dull terrace]

Copy and pasting on mobile

!e

class SomeClass:
    def __init__(self, att):
        self.att = att
    def __setattr__(self, name, value):
        print("changed")
instance = SomeClass('test')
instance.att = "test2"  ```

My bot was hosted like 2 years ago, now the uptime robot hosting is good but the code isn't running. Heres the error https://paste.pythondiscord.com/xepopidiwe Can anyone help?

[sick birch]

Replit?

[broken cave]

yeah

[sick birch]

Makes sense

[broken cave]

how do I fix

[sick birch]

Yeah it's server-side so not much you can do about it except not use replit

[slate swan]

uptimerobot is great for keeping up a replit

[sick birch]

Or just don't use replit at all

[slate swan]

well its free

[sick birch]

It's horrendous

[slate swan]

if you dont want to pay for hosting then what else do you have?

[sick birch]

AWS has a free tier

[broken cave]

I hosted it 2 years before. now it doesn't work

[sick birch]

So does Oracle last I heard

[broken cave]

it was online yesterday

[slate swan]

does it?

[sick birch]

Replit has a shared IP system, other people can get on the same IP as you and get you blocked from cloudflare

[broken cave]

oh shit

Is there any way bot works on mention and with prefix

[boreal ravine]

yes

[jade garden]

With no prefix

[boreal ravine]

wdym no prefix

[boreal ravine]

The decorator is incomplete

[jade garden]

Forget

[jade garden]

Tell me that

[slate swan]

i didn't get u

[alpine furnace]

I swear this is possible with some random python tricks

Like, we’ve all seen that runtime type checker

[boreal ravine]

you need to put a method under @discord.ui.button() like ```py
@discord.ui.button(label="Hi")
async def button(self, button, inter):
...

[slate swan]

got it thnx

[boreal ravine]

that was just an example by the way

[slate swan]

the response works but label doesnt change and it doesnt get disabled

[hoary cargo]

You need to edit the message

[slate swan]

How do I take an input for channel/role/user in 1 parameter and check which one it is?

@slate swan ^^

[iron sorrel]

Hiiiiiiiiiiiiiii
not really a help-needed question,
more like a how-can-I-help-you question.

For the discord bot developers here that are toooooooo lazy to learn relational databases, what would you like your JSON database to be able to do?

[slate swan]

cant really say "your JSON database" when json is used to format data and not store it

[red sundial]

just use mongo db 🤷‍♂️

[mellow barn]

Hello, can someone help me with select menus?

[red sundial]

json isn't a database

[mellow barn]

somewhy there's no select menu

[red sundial]

is this python?

[mellow barn]

but i'm adding it correctly

[slate swan]

its a file format thats obvious

[mellow barn]

lisp that compiles to python (hylang)

btw it uses nextcord

[red sundial]

i have no idea how that works lol

[mellow barn]

equals

@cord.group(
  name="help",
  description="...",
  aliases=["h"],
  invoke_without_command=True
)
async def help(self, ctx):
  await ctx.reply(
    embed=Embed(...),
    view=HomeHelpView()
  )

[visual island]

show the python code

[mellow barn]

class HomeHelpView(View):
  def __init__(self, *, timeout=180):
    super().__init__(timeout=timeout)
    self.add_item(Select(
      placeholder="...",
      options=[SelectOption(...) for name, option in ace.modules]=
    ))

[iron sorrel]

i know but

[mellow barn]

wait maybe i got why its empty

[red sundial]

but?

[iron sorrel]

as i said

For the discord bot developers here that are toooooooo lazy to learn relational databases

[final iron]

Json isn't a database

[placid skiff]

There is no need to use a ORM database for discord bots, considering that almost all discord object matches the abstract class Snowflake you can use a normal database and take as primary key the ID of the object you are interested to

[red sundial]

mongo db isn't a relational db

its a NoSQL db

Return the value for *key* if *key* is in the dictionary, else *default*. If *default* is not given, it defaults to `None`, so that this method never raises a [`KeyError`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/exceptions.html#KeyError "KeyError").

Hello how can I contact the library aiohttp Open a web socket to discord to receive events?

[small igloo]

from discord import Webhook, RequestsWebhookAdapter
ImportError: cannot import name 'RequestsWebhookAdapter' 🗿

i also try
from discord import Webhook, AsyncWebhookAdapter
but
ImportError: cannot import name 'AsyncWebhookAdapter' from 'discord' holy crap

[cedar stream]

why, when i subclass commands.Bot from pychord, it wants me to implement register_command abscractmethod

other forks i used dont do that

[final iron]

Cause pycord sucksssssss

[cedar stream]

IK

but i have to use it

working with a team and we voted

[small igloo]

🗿 and the force u to use pycord?

[cedar stream]

we all use the same fork

[small igloo]

🗿

[small igloo]

what is dis how to fix

[small igloo]

E help

[small igloo]

🗿 h e l p

[placid skiff]

bro don't flood, read the exception, it is sayin it clearly

[small igloo]

ImportError: cannot import name 'AsyncWebhookAdapter' from 'discord'

idk

[placid skiff]

Do you know python?

[small igloo]

ye, why

[placid skiff]

what does ImportError exception tells you when it raises?

[small igloo]

no module named that smth?

[placid skiff]

yup

[small igloo]

even the doc says that i must import that, but when i try it in action, the module gone, wtf

[placid skiff]

so the reason could be two:
The version of discord.py that you are using has not that class yet or something went wrong when you installed discord.py

[small igloo]

something went wrong when you installed discord.py

if this, how to fix (dont tell me re-install 🗿)

[placid skiff]

could be but you need to do other checks before, there is the possibility that you are trying to import a module which is already imported

why are you using AsyncWebhookAdapter?

[small igloo]

wanna send a message use webhook :V

[small igloo]

well, i alr import discord, but not for that AsyncWebhookAdapter

[small igloo]

how to reinstall

[placid skiff]

Maybe you don't need that

[cedar stream]

pychord doesnt have support for select menus and buttons etc.

[frozen elk]

how do i do it right ik this is wrong

[cedar stream]

ight?

[small igloo]

:happy_moyai: then.... what

[placid skiff]

Because probably you are trying to import a module which is already initialized in another module that you are using

[cedar stream]

!d commands.on_error

[small igloo]

:moyai_confoos: no

[unkempt canyon]

Nuh-uh.

No documentation found for the requested symbol.

[small igloo]

lul

[placid skiff]

you need to check your imports, by opening the discord source code

[cedar stream]

its on_error

[small igloo]

:moyai_surprised: wat

[visual island]

!d discord.on_error

[unkempt canyon]

discord.on\_error

discord.on_error(event, *args, **kwargs)```
Usually when an event raises an uncaught exception, a traceback is printed to stderr and the exception is ignored. If you want to change this behaviour and handle the exception for whatever reason yourself, this event can be overridden. Which, when done, will suppress the default action of printing the traceback.

The information of the exception raised and the exception itself can be retrieved with a standard call to [`sys.exc_info()`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/sys.html#sys.exc_info "(in Python v3.9)").

If you want exception to propagate out of the [`Client`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/api.html#discord.Client "discord.Client") class you can define an `on_error` handler consisting of a single empty [raise statement](https://docs.python.org/3/reference/simple_stmts.html#raise "(in Python v3.9)"). Exceptions raised by `on_error` will not be handled in any way by [`Client`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/api.html#discord.Client "discord.Client").

[small igloo]

there we go 🗿👍

[visual island]

[placid skiff]

essentially what is happening is like this:

main.py

import file1, file2
#stuffs here

file1:

from file3 import package_1

file3:

import file1

this will rise an error on file3 telling that you can't import file1

[slim ibex]

circular import 🗿

[placid skiff]

somewhere in your code this is happening, you can try to run a debug where you import AsyncWebhook and followup the code untill you find the issue

[slim ibex]

seems like it atleast

[placid skiff]

yup it should be that

[small igloo]

well, that's my first time import asyncWebhook thing, no way i use it in any of my files before so

[slim ibex]

yeah that’s definitely a circular import💀

[placid skiff]

yes but what about discord.py? maybe AsyncWebhook is already imported in Webhook and that's the issue

you have to navigate through the error to know that

[small igloo]

where the error 🗿

[small igloo]

i mean to see through

[small igloo]

maybe AsyncWebhook is already imported in Webhook

:moyai_big_eyes: w u t

[placid skiff]

Yup, that's the evidence

[small igloo]

where is it, also

discord.ext.commands.errors.CommandInvokeError: Command raised an exception: NameError: name 'AsyncWebhookAdapter' is not defined (when i remove that)

[placid skiff]

in discord.py webhook is a folder which contains three python file, one init file which imports the two other files and an async.py file and a sync.py file

[small igloo]

1. get user object
2. send that to the user DM ig

[spring flax]

how do i use command groups in main file?

[small igloo]

i mean where to import that async webhook thing, discord.Webhook.AsyncWebhookAdapter or what

🗿👍

[placid skiff]

you can't, you have to just import Webhook and then try to use AsyncWebhookAdapter, or you can only import AsyncWebhook

or you can modify the webhook folder inside discord.py to remove the circular import lol

[small igloo]

and then try to use AsyncWebhookAdapter

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

[small igloo]

da hec i cant (idk anything about that)

[cold sonnet]

https://www.codegrepper.com/code-examples/python/discord.py+group+commands @spring flax

[placid skiff]

Can i check the code?

[small igloo]

uhhhhhhhh

all code?

[placid skiff]

the one that raises the error 😆

[small igloo]

or you can only import AsyncWebhook

from discord import Webhook, AsyncWebhook
ImportError: cannot import name 'AsyncWebhook' from 'discord' (C:\Python310\lib\site-packages\discord_init_.py) oh wow

[placid skiff]

Bruh AsyncWebhook doesn't exists lol

[small igloo]

@bot.command(
aliases=["say"]
)
async def repeat(ctx, text=None):
if text == None:
await ctx.send("where text")
else:
async with aiohttp.ClientSession() as session:
webhook = Webhook.from_url('no', adapter=AsyncWebhookAdapter(session))
await webhook.send(username=ctx.author.name, avatar_url=ctx.author.display_avatar, content=text)

[placid skiff]

just import Webhook and modify your code to work with it

Oh wait it exists

[small igloo]

🗿

[placid skiff]

Why the fuck there is all those circular import lol

[small igloo]

:v

[small igloo]

now what tf i must do? Webhook.AsyncWebhookAdapter ???

[placid skiff]

I don't know hahaha, you can try to contact one of the contributors of discord.py

[small igloo]

🗿 what

do u mean owners or what

[placid skiff]

or you can try to use disnake

[small igloo]

oh no, another fork appears :l

[placid skiff]

disnake doesn't have asyncwebhook but has the webhook class, maybe they fixed that issue

in fact as session disnake use aiohttp.ClientSession

[small igloo]

can disnake work together with dpy 🗿

[placid skiff]

No lol

Why you want to use dpy? xD

[small igloo]

idk

[placid skiff]

with disnake you will not have this issue because aiohttp is an external package

so no way you will have a circular import

[small igloo]

that's in what (module?) my bot written in 🗿

[placid skiff]

?

[small igloo]

my bot use dpy bruh 🗿

[placid skiff]

disnake is a fork, you have only to change the discord namespace into disnake

and it will work without any issue

you have only to change this thing of asyncwebhook

[small igloo]

wait :) as simple as that?

[placid skiff]

yup

[small igloo]

OMFG ok ty

[placid skiff]

lol, np

[brave flint]

did someone know how to download attached file on pycord?

[small igloo]

so, discord.ext = disnake.ext? and all other things use discord?

[placid skiff]

fuck that, docs's here https://docs.disnake.dev/en/latest/index.html

[small igloo]

k :V

[placid skiff]

yup

[small igloo]

:)) ok ty

[gleaming torrent]

Hello. So I am trying to make a log for when people delete their messages. on_message_delete. But how do I make it get the user that deleted the message?

[placid skiff]

you will find that the docs too are pretty similar

[placid skiff]

I can't found nothing for that 🙄

[small igloo]

i hate u
from disnake import Webhook, asyncwebhook
ImportError: cannot import name 'asyncwebhook' from 'disnake' (C:\Python310\lib\site-packages\disnake_init_.py)

[slim ibex]

not sure you can. you could check audit logs but that will be challenging

[placid skiff]

i told you, you have to change the asyncwebhook thing hahaha

[gleaming torrent]

I think audit log is the better option

[small igloo]

?????

[gleaming torrent]

[placid skiff]

Your session became an aiohttp.ClientSession object

so instead of AsyncWebhook you need to import aiohttp.ClientSession and create a session with that

[small igloo]

import aiohttp.ClientSession ? wow, so confoozing

[leaden jasper]

why is ctx.guild.owner returning None

[placid skiff]

nah not that much, check the docs and you will find how to do that

[small igloo]

import aiohttp
import aiohttp.ClientSession

is that work like dis

[placid skiff]

you can import only clientsession, like doin this from aiohttp import ClientSession

[small igloo]

and also what to do with that webhook thing 🗿

[slate swan]

rip the server doesnt have any owner

[placid skiff]

https://docs.disnake.dev/en/latest/api.html?highlight=webhook#disnake.Webhook.from_url Check this, this is the webhook.from_url method

[small igloo]

so, what to do with dis, is stil the same or no

[small igloo]

🪦 r i p

[placid skiff]

https://docs.aiohttp.org/en/stable/client_reference.html#aiohttp.ClientSession this is clientsession class

[maiden fable]

Members intent

[small igloo]

oh ok ty

[maiden fable]

!d aiohttp.ClientSession is also there (:

[unkempt canyon]

aiohttp.ClientSession

class aiohttp.ClientSession(base_url=None, *, connector=None, cookies=None, headers=None, skip_auto_headers=None, auth=None, json_serialize=json.dumps, ...)```
The class for creating client sessions and making requests.

[placid skiff]

doc command is against me today

already failed 4 times xD

[maiden fable]

xD

[slate swan]

imagine using aiohttp

[maiden fable]

¯_(ツ)_/¯

[placid skiff]

man i was so getting to this that i was forgettin that i should do my work now xD

[maiden fable]

Lmao happens

[small igloo]

finnally fking work, ty

[placid skiff]

Happy to help

[leaden jasper]

Oh thanks

[small igloo]

_now i have a question, how to make my bot create a webhook URL 🗿 _

[maiden fable]

!d discord.Webhook.url

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Webhook.url

property url: str```
Returns the webhook’s url.

[maiden fable]

!d discord.TextChannel.create_webhook

[unkempt canyon]

discord.TextChannel.create\_webhook

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

Creates a webhook for this channel.

Requires [`manage_webhooks`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/api.html#discord.Permissions.manage_webhooks "discord.Permissions.manage_webhooks") permissions.

Changed in version 1.1: Added the `reason` keyword-only parameter.

[small igloo]

ok ty

[small igloo]

is disnake also can 🗿

[maiden fable]

Yea

[small igloo]

k ty

[small igloo]

and now, how to make my bot access the webhook URL

[slate swan]

you wont need it

[small igloo]

wut

[slate swan]

yeah you're creating the webhook, it cant have a link before you create it

[small igloo]

🗿❓❓

[slate swan]

nvm

[maiden fable]

webhook = await channel.create_webhook(...)
print(webhook.url)

[small igloo]

await?

[slate swan]

webhook = await TextChannel.create_webhook(name="Hunter uwu")
await webhook.send(content="hunter qt")```

[maiden fable]

Yea

[small igloo]

oh ok, ty

[small igloo]

await create_webhook(*, name, avatar=None, reason=None)``` is the star needed

[maiden fable]

That means it's a kwarg

[maiden fable]

See this ^^^

[slate swan]

all the args after the star are kwargs*

[maiden fable]

Yea

[small igloo]

oh ok, so i dont need it

[small igloo]

TypeError: TextChannel.create_webhook() takes 1 positional argument but 2 positional arguments (and 2 keyword-only arguments) were given

now what

[maiden fable]

Code

[small igloo]

@bot.command(
    aliases=["say"]
)
async def repeat(ctx, text=None):
    if text == None:
        await ctx.send("where text")

``` how do i set the label?? this is not working^^^

[maiden fable]

U need to edit the message too

[stiff nexus]

me?

[opaque tiger]

how can i get the list of all the commands including the subcommands?

[maiden fable]

Yea

[stiff nexus]

there is no other way?

[maiden fable]

Why r u creating another webhook tho

[maiden fable]

No

[stiff nexus]

but wait

[opaque tiger]

@maiden fable

[stiff nexus]

mee6 does not edit the message

how does they get it

[maiden fable]

!d discord.ext.commands.Bot.commands

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ext.commands.Bot.commands

property commands: Set[discord.ext.commands.core.Command[discord.ext.commands.core.CogT, Any, Any]]```
A unique set of commands without aliases that are registered.

[opaque tiger]

they edit it to the same message?

[maiden fable]

[opaque tiger]

yeah but how can i check it it is a subcommand?

[maiden fable]

!d discord.ext.commands.Group.commands

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ext.commands.Group.commands

property commands: Set[discord.ext.commands.core.Command[discord.ext.commands.core.CogT, Any, Any]]```
A unique set of commands without aliases that are registered.

[opaque tiger]

ow thanks 😄

[maiden fable]

U need to use try except

[stiff nexus]

nope they done edit

[maiden fable]

How do you know?

Bro, u have to make an API call to let the API know that we are changing the button text

[radiant rampart]

do I try above await member.edit?

[opaque tiger]

!d disnake.ext.commands.Group.commands

[unkempt canyon]

disnake.ext.commands.Group.commands

property commands```
A unique set of commands without aliases that are registered.

[maiden fable]

Yea, or just check the member's permissions

[opaque tiger]

hmm

[stiff nexus]

saw it

[maiden fable]

.....?

Well, idrk then. According to me, u need to make an API Call

[opaque tiger]

@maiden fable its not same in disnake?

[maiden fable]

It is

[opaque tiger]

then...

[maiden fable]

Then...?

[opaque tiger]

@maiden fable why is it Any?

[maiden fable]

ThTs just type hinting

[opaque tiger]

hmm

its not correctly type hinted?

[maiden fable]

Idk tbh. I think it's the same code from dpy

[opaque tiger]

hmm, lemme try

[maiden fable]

Try adding debug prints

Adding print statement to every other line and seeing which one is being called, to check what code is working and what's not

[opaque tiger]

Command raised an exception: TypeError: 'property' object is not iterable

[maiden fable]

Oh mind showing the code?

[opaque tiger]

sure

[maiden fable]

Oh wait

[opaque tiger]

[maiden fable]

!d discord.ext.commands.Bot.walk_commands is there. U should use this

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ext.commands.Bot.walk\_commands

for ... in walk_commands()```
An iterator that recursively walks through all commands and subcommands.

Changed in version 1.4: Duplicates due to aliases are no longer returned

[opaque tiger]

ow

[maiden fable]

Same in disnake

[opaque tiger]

will try

[maiden fable]

!d disnake.ext.commands.Bot.walk_commands

[unkempt canyon]

disnake.ext.commands.Bot.walk\_commands

for ... in walk_commands()```
An iterator that recursively walks through all commands and subcommands.

Changed in version 1.4: Duplicates due to aliases are no longer returned

[opaque tiger]

thx 😄

[silk kelp]

You could count all the commands in all of your cogs.

totalcommands = 0
for cog in self.bot.cogs():
  for command in cog.commands():
    totalcommands + 1
  for command in cog.Group.commands():
    totalcommands + 1
  for command in self.bot.commands if command.hidden:
    totalcommands - 1

[opaque tiger]

ow

[silk kelp]

?

[opaque tiger]

ok*

[slate swan]

thats unnecessary and badly written

thats like so slow

[stone beacon]

^^

You'd get away with just setting a class var that stores the number of commands in your cog 🤣

But that isn't dynamic enuf now is it

[slate swan]

total_cmds = len([command.name for command in self.bot.walk_commands() if not command.hidden])
``` is faster ig

[stone beacon]

Yup

[slate swan]

idk if it will work, just made that rn

[boreal ravine]

[quaint epoch]

nvm

!d disnake.Message.reply

[unkempt canyon]

disnake.Message.reply

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

A shortcut method to [`abc.Messageable.send()`](https://docs.disnake.dev/en/latest/api.html#disnake.abc.Messageable.send "disnake.abc.Messageable.send") to reply to the [`Message`](https://docs.disnake.dev/en/latest/api.html#disnake.Message "disnake.Message").

New in version 1.6.

Changed in version 2.3: Added `fail_if_not_exists` keyword argument. Defaults to `True`.

[quaint epoch]

!d disnake.Embed

[unkempt canyon]

disnake.Embed

class disnake.Embed(*, colour=Embed.Empty, color=Embed.Empty, title=Embed.Empty, type='rich', url=Embed.Empty, description=Embed.Empty, timestamp=None)```
Represents a Discord embed.

len(x) Returns the total size of the embed. Useful for checking if it’s within the 6000 character limit.

bool(b) Returns whether the embed has any data set.

New in version 2.0.

Certain properties return an `EmbedProxy`, a type that acts similar to a regular [`dict`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/stdtypes.html#dict "(in Python v3.10)") except using dotted access, e.g. `embed.author.icon_url`. If the attribute is invalid or empty, then a special sentinel value is returned, [`Embed.Empty`](https://docs.disnake.dev/en/latest/api.html#disnake.Embed.Empty "disnake.Embed.Empty").

For ease of use, all parameters that expect a [`str`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/stdtypes.html#str "(in Python v3.10)") are implicitly casted to [`str`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/stdtypes.html#str "(in Python v3.10)") for you.

[quaint epoch]

If a message has been deleted, can you still try to get it?

[quick gust]

no

[patent lark]

well.

yes.

[quick gust]

u can try

but it will return None

[patent lark]

if you catch the deleted message, you can 100% have it returned back to you.

[quick gust]

try to get it
Figured they were talking about geting

would that work aswell?

[quaint epoch]

like, a payload such as the one you get from RawMessageDeleteEvent

[sick birch]

Perhaps. .get_*() has to do with the cache, so it's possible that messages aren't instantly popped off the cache when they're deleted

[quick gust]

Yeah

[patent lark]

i was thinking the same thing, then thought, whats the likelihood of messages being removed from cache once deleted?

ive never really looked into that

[sick birch]

Well shouldn't be hard to test out

[slate swan]

what cache system does dpy even use?

[sick birch]

During the raw message delete event you can try to .get_message() using the ID

[patent lark]

well this would return the message instance, no?

[pliant gulch]

Discord.py uses a deque cache for messages

[quaint epoch]

where could we run .get_message()

because disnake.Guild doesn't have it

[sullen garnet]

Hi i would like to try and make a discord bot. Could anyonr give me any pointers to how i would start this e.g programme, how we would make the user

[sick birch]

https://vcokltfre.dev/ useful guide to get you started

[sullen garnet]

Ok thanks ill have a look

[slate swan]

only messages?

[pliant gulch]

Messages are deque because they pop left after the amount goes past the limit, the rest of the objects use a regular mapping as the cache

[slate swan]

ic

What is that?

[quick gust]

you've been ratelimited, classic replit

[slate swan]

What should i do?

[sick birch]

Get off replit

[slate swan]

Ok

[sick birch]

I hate to be blunt but it's just replit

It's one of the worst "hosts" there is, if you can even consider it that

[slate swan]

Thanks

[wispy spade]

To actually explain what's happening, basically, you got ratelimited. Your IP sent too many requests to Discord and as such you're getting that error. The problem with repl.it is that your IP is shared with other users, so if another user triggers a ratelimit, all people using that IP will also receive that ratelimit (since it's the same IP).

[sick birch]

^ its also possible for malicious users to get your account in trouble

since they will more than likely have the same IP as you

If you were to use something like AWS, they provide you with your own subnet & elastic IP that only you have access to

[slate swan]

Unfortunately, replit is the only thing on which I can learn Python on my phone.I don't have a computer

[sick birch]

Oh that's unfortunate

Coding on a phone is just not ideal, I'm sure you agree

[slate swan]

Yes, I agree with you.Coding on phone have different disadvantages

[sick birch]

Yeah well unfortunately it's just replit and there's not much you can do but wait until you're not longer rate limited

[boreal ravine]

Enter kill 1 in the shell

[sick birch]

Uhm

isn't that usually the root process?

[boreal ravine]

I have no idea

[wispy spade]

I think I've heard of that as a "fix" for this issue, although I'm not sure

[boreal ravine]

but I heard that command changes your current IP to another one

[wispy spade]

preferably you would just get off replit and look for another host but that isn't really an option here

[sick birch]

I don't know, assuming replit servers run some version of linux, 1 is usually the root process PID

Killing that is not a good idea

(trust me i tried it once)

[pliant gulch]

Most likely repl.it spawns a new container for you

Perhaps that’s what gives you the new IP

[sick birch]

That would make sense

[slate swan]

Mmm. How i can show bot ping?

[sick birch]

add f before your ""

f"Hello! My ping is {bot.latency}"

[placid skiff]

well you should round because latency returns the time in microseconds i think

[sick birch]

Round or int() it sure

[placid skiff]

should try this: round(bot.latency, 1)

[slate swan]

Ok

[potent spear]

mobile 👀

[wispy spade]

You seem to be using client, use that

[sick birch]

Looks like you're still ratelimited

[potent spear]

don't crosspost, you already got your answer in the other server

[slate swan]

Sadly

[potent spear]

stop saying 'it doesnt work", instead, show what you tried etc

you set up your error handler the wrong way most likely

[slate swan]

Error

[stray carbon]

trying to install nextcord but got this error:
Could not find a version that satisfies the requirement nextcord....
im using python 3.8.6

[wispy spade]

I'm assuming it's that ratelimit you'll probably have to wait out

[stray carbon]

^

[cold sonnet]

explain why nextcord

also, you probably didn't use the right version of pip when installing

/your python interpreter in your IDE is wrong

[red nest]

i used pip 2.11 or something for nextcord

[cold sonnet]

pip install --upgrade pip
if possible

[red nest]

yeah

[cold sonnet]

maybe even python3.8 -m pip install --upgrade pip

[red nest]

don't know if that works for nextcord i have python 3.9.5

[cold sonnet]

or pip3.8 install nextcord

try pip3.8 install disnake

I still don't see a reason for anyone to use nextcord

nextcord is just dpy

they still even use the same namespace

[quick gust]

lmao what

[red nest]

it's pretty similar but still has some major differences

[spring flax]

"Pretty similar but major differences"

[red nest]

yeah

[spring flax]

Doesn't go well together lol

[red nest]

but it's true lol

[quick gust]

have a seperate nextcord folder ->

everything in the discord folder hasn't been updated since 5 months except the title in the init

[distant sparrow]

Yo, anyone able to help me host my discord bot that doesn't shut off?

[sick birch]

"Help you host it" how?

Suggest hosts?

[distant sparrow]

However possible really man. I have 0 experience coding except for lua and I just need to get my discord bot online. I'd then like to have the status switch around every 15 seconds.

[sick birch]

Well, do you have the code for it?

[slate swan]

!d discord.ext.tasks.loop

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ext.tasks.loop

discord.ext.tasks.loop(*, seconds=..., minutes=..., hours=..., time=..., count=None, reconnect=True, loop=...)```
A decorator that schedules a task in the background for you with optional reconnect logic. The decorator returns a [`Loop`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/ext/tasks/index.html#discord.ext.tasks.Loop "discord.ext.tasks.Loop").

[slate swan]

!d discord.ext.commands.Bot.change_presence with that

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ext.commands.Bot.change\_presence

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

Changes the client’s presence.

Example

```py
game = discord.Game("with the API")
await client.change_presence(status=discord.Status.idle, activity=game)
```   Changed in version 2.0: Removed the `afk` keyword-only parameter.

[left crater]

thats not free

[hollow tide]

is there any consensus on the best discord bot lib fork to use?

[sick birch]

No

There are popular ones but no singluar "best" one

Now other people might tell you their fork is the best fork but that only proves the point, it's subjective and people will tell you the best fork is the one that they use

[full lily]

+1

[hollow tide]

sadly, the big three seem to be nextcord, pycord, disnake

its a big leap to jump to one and there is little consensus yet which is dissapointing

[manic wing]

everyone here uses disnake

disnake is much preferred to the other 3 forks, and you would probably get most help with it

[wispy spade]

That's probably one of the more liked ones of the three

[hollow tide]

noted, ya disnake is what im seeing the most of

[sick birch]

Yeah, I agree on that too. @dim ruin was going to use disnake as well

[wispy spade]

and what most people seem to be settling on

[hollow tide]

cool, thats good enough for me. auditing their source they also seemed the msot solid

[wispy spade]

although the grounds are still shaky

[kind cargo]

File "C:\Users\sweti\Downloads\drive-download-20220228T165050Z-001\main.py", line 50, in <module>

Someone help me with this problem.

[coarse anvil]

so uhh does anyone know how to make these commands i put in folders make them work and not have to put them in main.py, im still learning python!! :D

[hollow tide]

what problem?

you didnt actually show anything

[kind cargo]

File "C:\Users\sweti\Downloads\drive-download-20220228T165050Z-001\main.py", line 50, in <module>
bot.run(TOKEN)

[wispy spade]

Missed the most important part of that traceback

[coarse anvil]

...

[hollow tide]

thats spectacularly unhelpful

[kind cargo]

what?

[hollow tide]

many different ways

[wispy spade]

Can you get the entire error?

[hollow tide]

you didnt post an error

you posted that an error happened

[coarse anvil]

please help me :p

[wispy spade]

although from assumption maybe it's a wrong token or an empty string

[hollow tide]

you also have not provided any context or supplemntary code to make helping you possible

👍

[coarse anvil]

?

i dont understand

[hollow tide]

you havent asked a good question, havent shown any code or showed us what you have so far. your question isnt really answerable

[wispy spade]

"these commands"? maybe you mean cogs?

[hollow tide]

provide more context and we can help. there are many different ways you COULD do this

[kind cargo]

i dont understand

[sick birch]

You posted the fact that python told you there was an error at this point, but we don't know what the actual error is

[coarse anvil]

i am still a beginner sorry

[hollow tide]

if you go to a mechanic and say "car broke" then walk out what do you think they will say?

[coarse anvil]

oh ive tested the codes, they all work but when i put them in the cogs they dont

[kind cargo]

"what isa the problem"

[wispy spade]

what error do you receive when doing it with cogs?

[hollow tide]

well thats not good, but how do you expect us to help with stuff when youve told us nothing about it?

[coarse anvil]

let me see again

[hollow tide]

ill give you a hint, post screenshots or copy paste your code

[kind cargo]

me?

[hollow tide]

until you do that this isnt a useful conversation

[hollow tide]

both of yo

[kind cargo]

ok

[hollow tide]

you have also not shown anything useful 😁

[wispy spade]

that tells us nothing

[quick gust]

that isn't the full traceback

[hollow tide]

dont crop it

[wispy spade]

get the entire error

[hollow tide]

take a full screen screensyhot

just info dump the whole screen, we know what we ar elookign for

[hollow tide]

there we go

now if you had posted that in your original message in this channel we would be way further rn lol

[kind cargo]

yeee

[hollow tide]

for future reference lead with that next time

[kind cargo]

okk

[wispy spade]

I can barely notice it but seems you haven't enabled privileged intents

[quick gust]

!intents do u have anything that looks like this in your code?

[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.

[kind cargo]

i have @quick gust

[quick gust]

make sure to enable them in the Developer Portal aswell

[quick gust]

read this

[hollow tide]

screenshot plz

take one of your entire screen do not crop it

[rancid escarp]

Has anyone created a discord bot that purges specific channels at a specific time automatically? I am stuck here and looking for some assistance

[sick birch]

You might wanna check out the discord.ext.tasks extension

[slate swan]

cogs structure and main file structure are entirely different

[distant sparrow]

Hm I can't do it for free?

[rancid escarp]

I tried but it seems to block the rest of the commands when it is running

[slate swan]

how are asynchronous loops blocking code

[rancid escarp]

I have other commands like /train, /gtg, so when i run the bot with auto purger segment on. These commands dont work

[slate swan]

probably some other code blockin them, tasks are async

[rancid escarp]

I thought and i executed all the tasks one by one.They all executed fine, the moment i add the auto execute segment, the blocking starts

[slate swan]

can you show the task code if you by any chance have it?

[rancid escarp]

I dont have the exact code since i have rewritten it so many time 😅 but i tried to follow the below approach:

import datetime
async def function():

schedule_time = datetime.datetime(2020, 10, 3, 11, 58, 00, 000000)#(year, month, day, hour, minute, second, microsecond)
await client.wait_until_ready()

while not client.is_closed():
   now = datetime.datetime.now()
   if schedule_time  <= now:
       #JOB
       #add one day to schedule_time to repeat on next day
       schedule_time+= datetime.timedelta(days=1)
   await asyncio.sleep(20)

client.loop.create_task(function())

[cold sonnet]

this ain't a task

I mean yeah well nvm

[rancid escarp]

I am confused 😅

[slate swan]

use tasks

[cold sonnet]

ext.tasks

[slate swan]

!d discord.ext.tasks.loop

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ext.tasks.loop

discord.ext.tasks.loop(*, seconds=..., minutes=..., hours=..., time=..., count=None, reconnect=True, loop=...)```
A decorator that schedules a task in the background for you with optional reconnect logic. The decorator returns a [`Loop`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/ext/tasks/index.html#discord.ext.tasks.Loop "discord.ext.tasks.Loop").

slowly walks away

[distant sparrow]

Yeah hi can someone help me host my bot 24/7

[boreal ravine]

Use a VPS/read pins

[maiden fable]

Imagine if infinity worked with Python

[slate swan]

refer to this - #discord-bots message

[sick birch]

I don't think people would let you host your bot on their VPS since they're paying for it, they'll probably make you split the bill

[boreal ravine]

Never :)

[distant sparrow]

Yeah I am broke

[sick birch]

AWS has a free tier, but if you want some of their more powerful machines such as the t3.small it's not that expensive

[maiden fable]

Well what most of the hosts do is, rent a VPS for like 6 USD a month or smth (maximum 10) and just sell it to a person like 500 MB RAM for 2 USD or smth. This way, they earn profits since they cover the VPS costs by 5-6 people and the rest is all profit

[distant sparrow]

My bot has no purpose other than aesthetics

[sick birch]

I think my ec2 instances come out to be ~30/month excluding other services like domains and S3 storage unit

[maiden fable]

Rip ;-;

[distant sparrow]

If anyone tryna let me run my bot from them lmk

[maiden fable]

Okay ig

[distant sparrow]

I'll slide u 1 pizza crust per month

[sick birch]

Consider dockerizing your code so it's easy for people to host it for you

[distant sparrow]

Man I am silly and stupid so people get really frustrated at me because I don't understand it

[maiden fable]

I am the same 👀

[slate swan]

calling yourself silly and stupid is just lowering your self-esteem

[distant sparrow]

It's already at its lowest

Lol

[maiden fable]

You do know everyone knows their reality, right?

[manic wing]

hate to be that guy, but we're not counsellors, please stay on topic

[slate swan]

[distant sparrow]

yeah lol

[maiden fable]

facts 👀

[distant sparrow]

Very true

Ye so if someone wants a pizza crust shipped to them and can host my bot or something dm me

[sick birch]

That would be nasty

[maiden fable]

dms u but without a VPS

[distant sparrow]

I will vacuum seal it

[manic wing]

what

[maiden fable]

Meh, my bot itself is being hosted by a friend, don't expect anything from me

[distant sparrow]

Get me that friend

[sick birch]

I do have an EC2 instance running 👀

[slate swan]

do you think pizza is gonna get us?

[maiden fable]

No thanks

[manic wing]

robin stop im literally going to go psycho

[maiden fable]

@distant sparrow where do u live tho like what country

[sick birch]

Why lol

[slate swan]

home?

[manic wing]

literally 1 out of 3 times i go into discord-bots you're mentioned aws

[distant sparrow]

[manic wing]

thats not even a joke

[maiden fable]

smh see the edited msg

[sick birch]

I like aws ok

[maiden fable]

no time to joke

[sick birch]

leave me alone ☹️

[distant sparrow]

That's not a joke

[slate swan]

Do NOT make those kind of jokes here. Maintain the peace. Period

[distant sparrow]

thats not a joke

[maiden fable]

[manic wing]

what if he lives there... tf?

[distant sparrow]

Why is my nationality a joke now?

[slate swan]

[maiden fable]

Meh okay stop the bully

[sick birch]

I dont think they are

[slate swan]

[distant sparrow]

You want a picture from my apartment lol?

[slate swan]

same, i mean, nobody would be-

[sick birch]

No I believe you

[maiden fable]

Not a joke, just I never talked with someone from Ukraine recently since u know why, so thought u were joking

[distant sparrow]

Oh lol yes I am Ukranian

The Zen of Python, by Tim Peters

Beautiful is better than ugly.
Explicit is better than implicit.
Simple is better than complex.
Complex is better than complicated.
Flat is better than nested.
Sparse is better than dense.
Readability counts.
Special cases aren't special enough to break the rules.
Although practicality beats purity.
Errors should never pass silently.
Unless explicitly silenced.
In the face of ambiguity, refuse the temptation to guess.
There should be one-- and preferably only one --obvious way to do it.
Although that way may not be obvious at first unless you're Dutch.
Now is better than never.
Although never is often better than right now.
If the implementation is hard to explain, it's a bad idea.
If the implementation is easy to explain, it may be a good idea.
Namespaces are one honking great idea -- let's do more of those!

[dry kelp]

guild_prefixes[str(ctx.guild.id)][str(ctx.author.id)] = prefix will this work to add the prefix?

[cold sonnet]

[unkempt canyon]

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

[dry kelp]

like creating a str of guild id + author id

then prefix

[frozen patio]

this wont work when I use it

[dry kelp]

@maiden fable how can i get the prefix from that?

[maiden fable]

Huh?

[dry kelp]

like

[frozen patio]

its to make a music bot, I use the command, and it says not in a VC

[maiden fable]

Music commands do be against ToS

[frozen patio]

what ToS?

[maiden fable]

Terms of Service

[frozen patio]

many bots are music bots

[dry kelp]

guild_prefixes.get([str(ctx.guild.id)][str(ctx.author.id)]):

@maiden fable is this the right way to pull the prefix from it?

[slate swan]

youtube's

[maiden fable]

what is guild_prefixes? a dict?

[dry kelp]

yes

[buoyant quail]

bot can play music not only from youtube

[frozen patio]

so use spotify

[maiden fable]

Ah yes that should work

[dry kelp]

alr

[maiden fable]

Against ToS

[quaint epoch]

I tried to send a snipe command, but it only works when i delete a message that was sent after the bot starts up

[slate swan]

isnt their music highly encrypted which makes it unable to stream audio

[quaint epoch]

is it because it needs to be in it's cache?

[quick gust]

spotify_dl

[frozen patio]

im not sure

[slate swan]

against tos? ofc

[maiden fable]

Against ToS

[quaint epoch]

tos

[quick gust]

yes

[slate swan]

s.m.h.

[maiden fable]

You cannot download music from a legal site lol

[quick gust]

yes

[cold sonnet]

don't matter, same ToS rejection

[slate swan]

i know

[quick gust]

I know, I was just answering your question lol

[slate swan]

don't make a music bot, dump the idea

I dont see an option

[frozen patio]

alright 😦

[maiden fable]

So yea, in short you cannot stream music without paying millions to the creators as royalty, so might just drop the idea

[slate swan]

imagine spending money on a discord bot used by 10 servers

[maiden fable]

That too millions lmao

[slate swan]

[maiden fable]

Reasons Spotify doesn't allow downloading music on the free plan. The company has to pay royalty to the singers to make the music available to everyone

[quaint epoch]

how come my snipe command only snipes messages that were sent and deleted after my bot starts up

[maiden fable]

That is what should happen

[slate swan]

because the bot only starts to track messages when it comes online

[maiden fable]

Since the cache refreshes everytime yr bot restarts

[manic wing]

!d discord.on_raw_message_delete

[unkempt canyon]

discord.on\_raw\_message\_delete

Called when a message is deleted. Unlike [`on_message_delete()`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/api.html#discord.on_message_delete "discord.on_message_delete"), this is called regardless of the message being in the internal message cache or not.

[quaint epoch]

is there any option to not refresh the cache after every restart

[maiden fable]

.......?

[manic wing]

i was showing the alternative to just cached messages?

[pliant gulch]

With how discord.py works no, not unless you do major monkey patching

[maiden fable]

.....?

You didn't understand me lol

[manic wing]

not really unless you fuck with the internals

[slate swan]

mess with the internals not really unless you are planning to make your own wrapper

[manic wing]

this is what you can use in order to get all deleted messages, whether or not they are cached - this might be useful if you turn your bot off a lot, however it can cost a lot of api calls

[maiden fable]

U both do know that it is known as monkey patching, as andy said, right? (cc @manic wing)

[slate swan]

I dont, I barely read any message of andy's

[manic wing]

you do know i am aware but dont really care? (bcc @maiden fable )

[maiden fable]

No I didn't

[maiden fable]

Now u do lmao

[manic wing]

is this better hunter

you can stop doing the ....

[slate swan]

not really, idk if you're trying to push info in my brain without me knowing

[maiden fable]

Bro, the cache which is stored in the RAM is gonna refresh anyway when the bot restarts

[maiden fable]

I am lmao. I am just saying that editing the internals to suit our personal needs is known as monkey patching

[manic wing]

?

[maiden fable]

Nvm I give up

[manic wing]

read my message

[dry kelp]

wait lemme put it after the if

but is going to return none anyways

[maiden fable]

that means there ain't a prefix set for that guild

[dry kelp]

cuz the guild is not added that's why automatically it should get . if is none

exactly bro like why am i getting the str error

[maiden fable]

o

[dry kelp]

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/343944376055103488/947923695685492736/unknown.png

like fuck am i doing wrong

[manic wing]

thats the same error with no new information

[maiden fable]

Mind printing the whole dict?

[dry kelp]

is empty

[sick birch]

Why are you doing .get([])?

[maiden fable]

bro calm down

[manic wing]

im quite calm thanks

[dry kelp]

i saw smth look

[maiden fable]

AAAAAAAAAAAH YES

[dry kelp]

.

[maiden fable]

Ah remove the []

[sick birch]

no it's just the name of the key in string form

[dry kelp]

so without []

[sick birch]

!e

x = {
  "hello": "world"
}
print(x.get("hello"))

[unkempt canyon]

@sick birch :white_check_mark: Your eval job has completed with return code 0.

world

[dry kelp]

guild_prefixes.get(str(guild), str(author))

[sick birch]

just like so

[dry kelp]

that's good?

[sick birch]

Why the comma? It only takes one argument

[dry kelp]

guild_prefixes.get(str(guild), str(author)) is this good?

[maiden fable]

guild_prefixes.get(str(guild))[str(author)]

[tidal hawk]

Watch Youtube videos 😆

[sick birch]

That's just as bad

[dry kelp]

so this?

[manic wing]

it takes two or more, the second one is the catch argument

[maiden fable]

Sure

[manic wing]

!e
x = {
"hello": "world"
}
print(x.get("e", 1))

[unkempt canyon]

@manic wing :white_check_mark: Your eval job has completed with return code 0.

1

[sick birch]

guild_prefixes.get(str(guild)).get(str(author))

[dry kelp]

so which one bruh

[maiden fable]

Both work

[tidal hawk]

Just start by creating a command, then when command is used, the bot creates a channel with perms etc...

[dry kelp]

being painful already

[sick birch]

Nevermind, use that then

[tidal hawk]

and keep testing

[sick birch]

So if it doesn't find a guild prefix, it'll default to username#discrim instead, is that what you want?

[dry kelp]

    with open(prefix_path, "r")as f:
        guild_prefixes = json.load(f)

        if [str(ctx.guild.id)][str(ctx.author.id)] in guild)prefixes:
            p = guild_prefixes.get(str(ctx.guild.id))[str(ctx.author.id)]
        else:
            p = "."

will this work?.. wait i made a error

    with open(prefix_path, "r")as f:
        guild_prefixes = json.load(f)

        if [str(ctx.guild.id)][str(ctx.author.id)] in guild_prefixes:
            p = guild_prefixes.get(str(ctx.guild.id))[str(ctx.author.id)]
        else:
            p = "."

[sick birch]

if [str(ctx.guild.id)][str(ctx.author.id)] ??

[manic wing]

why are you indexing an str with an str

[sick birch]

this is the problem with json

it's notoriously difficult to work with data

if you used a database you could do this in 5 lines and move on

[dry kelp]

will that work tho?

like ye it should get the guild id and author id in the command error

[sick birch]

no this is like really messed up lol

[dry kelp]

@sick birch

[sick birch]

start using .get() instead of using []

[dry kelp]

like?

[sick birch]

right now you have a list and you're trying to subscript that list using a string

[manic wing]

theres no point using .get instead if you dont have the fallback arg

[sick birch]

You can avoid try/except hell

[dry kelp]

robin how can i fix this bruh

[sick birch]

You're gonna wanna think about how to structure your code first or it's gonna end up looking like spghetti code and nobody will know how to fix it

[dry kelp]

i mean it looks fine to me

i just have issues loading the prefix lol

[sick birch]

if [str(ctx.guild.id)][str(ctx.author.id)] like what's this supposed to be

[dry kelp]

    with open(guild_prefix_path, "r")as f:
        guild_prefixes = json.load(f)
        guild_prefix = guild_prefixes.get(str(guild))[str(author)]
        if guild_prefix:
            prefixes.append(guild_prefix)

getting the guild id and author id

[sick birch]

that's like doing [1, 2, 3, 4]["string"]

all you need to do is

if str(guild.id) in guild_prefixes:
  ...

[dry kelp]

no bro is something different here

i need guild id + author id + prefix

like a self prefix but for guild .. not global

[sick birch]

str(guild) returns the guild name you are aware of that?

[dry kelp]

it doesn't

[sick birch]

and str(author) returns authorName#discrim

[dry kelp]

please check the define

it doesn't do that

[sick birch]

oh did you change the variable names

[sick birch]

ah yeah

[dry kelp]

yes

[sick birch]

naming conventions are not the best but i guess that's ok

[maiden fable]

damn u the bird do be cute

[dry kelp]

fr

please cuz is being a pain in the ass this shit

i just can't im brain dead

[quaint epoch]

i DO use this, but it still only works after the bot starts up

[slate swan]

!e

print(None[0])
