[cold sonnet]

now I'm starting not to understand

[rocky trench]

God

[cold sonnet]

so what bothers me is

[slate swan]

no im not a god

[cold sonnet]

you can't put 8 buttons in a row

right?

[hushed galleon]

mhm, the maximum is 5x5

[cold sonnet]

so you have to find another solution to make a chess bot

can't make 64 buttons

[rocky trench]

Jesus Christ

[cold sonnet]

[hushed galleon]

personally i use a select menu for the user to input coordinates

[slate swan]

godbless my mind

[rocky trench]

Or you make an embed with black and white squares and buttons to move something

But that's gonna take hours to select ur pion, and move it

[cold sonnet]

what buttons

[rocky trench]

↙️

[hushed galleon]

its a bit of a cumbersome design though, especially on mobile

[cold sonnet]

wth is in that select menu

[rocky trench]

@slate swan is ur issue fixed?

[hushed galleon]

maybe modal with text input would help in this?

[cold sonnet]

a1 all the way to o10

[hushed galleon]

when there's >25 cells its broken up to two inputs, X then Y

[sick birch]

Doesn't discord have a chess activity you can play in VCs

[hushed galleon]

they do

[cold sonnet]

uncool

[hushed galleon]

you should make 5D chess

[cold sonnet]

so what can you make in a bot

[cold sonnet]

definitely bro

[rocky trench]

Huh??

[cold sonnet]

moving time, sound, gravity and dunno shit in chess cuz fun

How do I tie a guild object to a Group?py Failed to Load Extension cogs.users ExtensionFailed: Extension 'cogs.users' raised an error: AttributeError: 'Group' object has no attribute 'guilds'in this code```py
class user(commands.Cog):
def init(self, bot):
self.bot = bot

User = app_commands.Group(name="users", description="Check User stuff.")

@User.command()
@User.guilds(guild=discord.Object(id=default_guild))
@User.describe(user="The discord user to get information for.")

def setup(bot):
bot.add_cog(user(bot))```

[cold sonnet]

what

what do you want to do

[hushed galleon]

i believe those two decorators should come from app_commands. i.e. @app_commands.guilds(123, 456)

[flat solstice]

okay thanks, might take another look at dannys gist

[slate swan]

No I’ll fix tomorrow

[slender perch]

im more currious if this would work as a hypothetical, but would it be possible to make a discord bot that controls over discord bots?
i was thinking of a music bot that will control several other music bots for multi use

ik it would be easier to just have multiple music bots work separately, but i think the idea sounds intresting

[slate swan]

Wouldn’t work

Most bots don’t respond to other bots

[slender perch]

i was thinking of a backend thing tho, like if i use a command on a bot the bought would use the token of another bot to do smth

[slate swan]

bro what

[hardy yoke]

That sounds overly complex but probably doable

[slender perch]

me wonder if idea possible cuz brain randomly think of

[slate swan]

you mean a botnet?

which the admin is a bot?

[slim ibex]

it is possible most likely, but requires a large server. seems like a botnet

[slender perch]

bro what? 💀

[slate swan]

you dont know whats a botnet?

[slate swan]

until you get ratelimited LMAO

[slender perch]

a botnet is a server controlling several infected computers
this is a discord bot that would control other discord bots via the code

[slim ibex]

generally a botnet is a malicious concept used in DDoS attacks

[slender perch]

those are nothing alike 💀

[slate swan]

how bro

[slim ibex]

yes it is.

it is a network of bots, but just not used for malicious purposes

[slate swan]

im pretty sure discord bots fall in bots

[slim ibex]

^

[slender perch]

yea, a network of infected computers used to control them via a backdoor
im saying a discord bot that uses more then 1 token to control other bots

the only way those are simular is the use of "bots"

[slim ibex]

it doesn't have to be malicious intent

that is just what they are generally used for

[slender perch]

its not a botnet, if it doesnt use other computers 💀

[slate swan]

where do you run bots in?

[slim ibex]

bro im losing braincells rn 💀

[slender perch]

one computer that runs a script using multiple tokens is what im talking about

a botnet is a computer that uses several different computers to preform a task

not the same

[slim ibex]

that essentially means you are asking bot devs to give you their token? that will never happen..

[slender perch]

one account can make more then one token 💀

[slim ibex]

no shit

[slate swan]

i mean you can but you shouldnt

[slim ibex]

but if you intend for this to reach across discord, taht would be the case

unless its just for your own bots.

[slender perch]

then where tf do you get the idea of asking other devs for their tokens from?

i make 1 bot that is the main one, and like 3 other bots that would be used by the main ones

[slim ibex]

and also

[slate swan]

@slender perch

[slender perch]

thats what i thought, i was just wondering if the idea was possible at all

[slim ibex]

we said it was earlier

[slate swan]

yeah just make a subclass of the bot class and make a run method and just run all the bots in a main file but you shoudlnt

[slender perch]

yea, and also said that it was like a botnet (it wasnt) and said something about using other devs bot tokens (had nothing to do with it)

[slender perch]

yea, just more as a hypothetical ig

[slim ibex]

was just tryna understand what you wanted. and I wasn't the first to bring botnet up

[slim ibex]

i said this before all of that

[slender perch]

and i was replying to the other guy in that topic

[slender perch]

its like, it seems like a intresting idea of a way to use a music discord bot for several instances at the same time, but prolly just having different bots would work better

[slim ibex]

!ytdl - be carefult with music bots

[alpine furnace]

Of course it's possible, just have a pool of tokens and you could easily orchestrate bots

And then create a front end with your main bot, or something 🤷‍♂️

[slim ibex]

name the main bot Orchestrator

[alpine furnace]

It's a bit complex if you haven't any devops experience, but it's interesting

[alpine furnace]

And make its pfp a blue heptagon

[slim ibex]

💀

[slender perch]

yea my idea for it is, it would check if each token is in a call or not, if not then it would use that bot for the command, the way to control the bot is dependent on who is in what vc with what bot and so on so on

its hard to explain in text, i would be better off making some sort of diagram explaining the proccess

[alpine furnace]

Yeah, I'd like to see that

[slim ibex]

^

[slender perch]

also another thing, ive been thinking about making a discord bot that changes the nickname of anyone who'se name starts with a "!" into
"poop eater"

idk how im gonna do that but i think it would be funny

[slim ibex]

epic

thats like a simple command tbh

check if name starts with !

i believe there is an attribute for member name

if there is a function to change it, boom everyone is now poop eater

[somber sky]

im trying to make it where it says "2 weeks" i want it to be a custom message just like the reason, but if i were to do {message} twice it would put the same message

i want 2 different messages in 1 embed

idk how to explain it well

oo i figures out how

[left crater]

i am trying to send a list but this is what it sends

[somber sky]

nvm yall

[slate swan]

just use on message commands you would have a bot that invokes a command and make all bots check only authors that are the bots and you do the rest

[polar lodge]

it looks like you sent the actual object

can I see the code please?

[left crater]

i am using readlines() to send from a text file

it shows up normally in the txt file

but when i send it does that

[slate swan]

and use a try except to check if the tokens are right since if the token is wrong it would raise an error just handle it but theirs still a down side to it

[left crater]

async def polls(ctx, *, question : str = None):
    if question == None:
        return await ctx.send("What would you like to ask the people")
    else:
        with open("checkmars.txt", "r") as f:
            a = f.readlines()
        with open("xsss.txt", "r") as r:
            b = r.readlines()
        a.clear()
        quest = discord.Embed(title=None)
        quest.add_field(name=question, value=f'Asked by {ctx.author.mention}')
        a = await ctx.send(embed=quest)
        await a.add_reaction("✅")
        await a.add_reaction("❌")
        await ctx.send(a)
        await ctx.send(b)```

[polar lodge]

it looks like you have overwritten the a variable with the value of await ctx.send(embed=quest)

[left crater]

oh

have i used the same variable too much

it works

i used the same variable too much

[modest plover]

How do I unload and reload all extensions with Disnake?

I can load all of them but not reload all of them

[final iron]

Just loop through the list and DM them

async def your_command(..., *members: tuple[discord.Member]):
    #loop through the list

Not sure if it will work

[modest plover]

Water do you know if I can unload and reload all my commands with Disnake without a huge overcomplicated loop?

[final iron]

Pretty sure you have to do a loop

Just use a list comp and it will only be 1 line

[modest plover]

I can load all them with load_extensions but idk how to with a loop

[modest plover]

What is said loop?

[final iron]

Just a simple for loop

[modest plover]

I haven't had to use the loops to load commands tho

Like, idk what to loop

@final iron what is the loop? I don't know what to actually put into the loop

Also how do I make it so the only person who can see and call the command is me / the bot owner

[flat solstice]

d.py 2.0 giving me this errorpy Failed to Load Extension cogs.users ExtensionFailed: Extension 'cogs.users' raised an error: TypeError: CommandTree.add_command() missing 1 required positional argument: 'command'on this code```py
@app_commands.context_menu(name="User Info")
async def userinfo(interaction: Interaction, member: Member):
await self.userinfo(interaction, member)

def setup(bot):
bot.add_cog(user(bot))
app_commands.CommandTree.add_command(userinfo)```

[slate swan]

why my database not setup ConnectionRefusedError: [WinError 1225] The remote computer refused the network connection showing this error

[slate swan]

no

[buoyant igloo]

guys how do I trigger the CommandNotFound Error, I did sum Error handling, then the error just never happens again

[slate swan]

    print('hm')
    bot.db = await asyncpg.create_pool(database="prefix",user='postgres',password="")
    print('huh')
    print('Connection succesfull')

bot.loop.run_until_complete(create_db_pool())```

[slate swan]

youll just pass one kwarg with a list which needs to be a list type it must be *members

so it will be an unknown amount of positional arguments

[slate swan]

        await ctx.send("**Invalid command. Try using** `help` **to figure out commands!**")```

[buoyant igloo]

Ik that’s what I did but the error never triggers again

[sage otter]

*members will convert to a tuple. Not list.

[slate swan]

i dunno get it 😅😅

[modest plover]

Have you got raise error in your code?

[slate swan]

pls help

[modest plover]

Because without it, it'll silence all other errors

@buoyant igloo

[buoyant igloo]

Wdym by that

[modest plover]

Have you got, in your code, raise error anywhere?

[buoyant igloo]

no

[modest plover]

Put that in

[slim ibex]

raise just raises an error

[modest plover]

Yeah, and it's possible that there's another error

[slim ibex]

it then stops the execution of the program

[buoyant igloo]

ye I did sum other error handling

[sage otter]

wait what

no it doesnt. the hell

[modest plover]

The error itself stops the command...

[sage otter]

he said program

[modest plover]

An error doesn't crash a program

[slim ibex]

it would stop the control flow

[slate swan]

if u use on_command_error it dunno stop consol

[sage otter]

Are you trying to say it’s blocking?

[buoyant igloo]

Bro now my IDE doesn’t load

Wait where do I put the raise error

[slim ibex]

on_command_error handles errors in the command and stops the execution of said command when an error is met. It itself wont stop the bot instance

[sage otter]

You said program Bruh

[modest plover]

An error in general stops the execution of the command

[buoyant igloo]

Cuz I only know how to raise Exception

[slate swan]

ik that

😅

[slim ibex]

you can raise any error and call its initializer

!e

raise TypeError('wrong type')

[unkempt canyon]

@slim ibex :x: Your eval job has completed with return code 1.

001 | Traceback (most recent call last):
002 |   File "<string>", line 1, in <module>
003 | TypeError: wrong type

[slim ibex]

didn't see context before, but should have been common sense it was a bot 🗿

[final iron]

*, my_arg will pack all of the arguments in to my_arg though

[sage otter]

not as a list

it will as a one string

[ionic ledge]

the token is correct and even i changed it though it is saying improper token has been passed

[slate swan]

why my database dunno connect with my codes

[modest plover]

How do I make commands not exist to anyone other than me?

[hushed galleon]

you need to store the CommandTree instance as a bot var in order to access it inside extensions

[slim ibex]

owner only

[modest plover]

How do I do that?

[slim ibex]

!d discord.ext.commands.is_owner

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ext.commands.is\_owner

@discord.ext.commands.is_owner()```
A [`check()`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.check "discord.ext.commands.check") that checks if the person invoking this command is the owner of the bot.

This is powered by [`Bot.is_owner()`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.Bot.is_owner "discord.ext.commands.Bot.is_owner").

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

[modest plover]

Ah ok, th

[final iron]

So the converter wouldn't work?

[modest plover]

Ty
Does that make the command just not exist to anyone else?

[buoyant igloo]

The CommandNotFound still doesn’t get triggered

[slim ibex]

you can raise the NotOwner exception if someone that isn't the bot owner tries to invoke the command

[final iron]

@slate swan is this correct?

[slim ibex]

!d discord.ext.commands.NotOwner

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ext.commands.NotOwner

exception discord.ext.commands.NotOwner(message=None, *args)```
Exception raised when the message author is not the owner of the bot.

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

[sage otter]

no the converter does work. The consume rest behavior isn’t normal for the asterisk operator. It converts everything after the argument before it into a single string that will be fed into the argument after it.

[final iron]

Ah

[tacit glade]

HEY

[slim ibex]

okimii

[slate swan]

no

[tacit glade]

How can I host my bot 24/7 for free

[slim ibex]

vps like vultr

but not for freee

[tacit glade]

FREE?

[slate swan]

youre waiting for multiple arguments which you expect all of them being tuples?

[tacit glade]

uhhh

[slim ibex]

its extremely cheap though

[tacit glade]

So how can i?

[slim ibex]

you wont get reliable free hosting

[modest plover]

Self host it

[tacit glade]

explain

[slate swan]

*args returns a tuple yes of all given arguments but no you call them all separately

[slim ibex]

that works but you gotta take into account internet bandwidth, etc'

[modest plover]

If you have an old phone lying around, you can host a bot from that

[modest plover]

How much would that be tho?

[tacit glade]

I don't have one

[modest plover]

Ok, use a pc

[sage otter]

Wait what

[slim ibex]

and you need memory and storage to host it

[modest plover]

Run the file in the background

[final iron]

Explain

[sage otter]

No it doesn’t

[tacit glade]

So I need to keep the pc 24/7 online

[modest plover]

Yeah, like moai said, there's no real free reliable hosts

[sage otter]

It hints *members as a tuple of discord.Member

[slate swan]

wait nvm

thats kinda weird tho

[sage otter]

tuple[tuple[discord.Member]] is what you were thinking of

[slate swan]

yeah oops

[tacit glade]

I have heard that there are a few discord servers where they host

[slate swan]

so yeah @final iron you were correct that was my fault

[modest plover]

They're not all too reliable

[sage otter]

@final iron either way there’s no point to having the type hint there unless you just want it. Dpy has no conversions for built-in iterables in its signature parsing.

Unless commands.Greedy does that

[slate swan]

yeah

[final iron]

I just have it for intellisense

[sage otter]

If you want arguments to be consumed into an iterable. Using *args is what you need. It will give you a tuple of whatever.

[hushed galleon]

doing this might get your bot caught in discord's anti-spam filter, from what ive heard
if you can, you should prefer pinging them over mass dming

[slim ibex]

or **kwargs if you want a dict/named args

[slate swan]

    for role_id in teamss:
        for member in ctx.guild.members:
            if ctx.guild.get_role(role_id) in member.roles and FO in member.roles:
                people.append(f"{member.mention} - {ctx.guild.get_role(role_id).mention}")
                lst.append(role_id)

        

    for roles in ctx.guild.roles:
        if roles in team:
            if roles.id not in lst:
                checked.append(roles.mention)
            

        

    embed2=discord.Embed(title="Unclaimed Franchises", description="\n".join(checked) or "None", color=0x2f3136)
``` why does this always input None on the embed

[sage otter]

how would that pan out tho

[slim ibex]

!or

[unkempt canyon]

When checking if something is equal to one thing or another, you might think that this is possible:

if favorite_fruit == 'grapefruit' or 'lemon':
    print("That's a weird favorite fruit to have.")

While this makes sense in English, it may not behave the way you would expect. In Python, you should have complete instructions on both sides of the logical operator.

So, if you want to check if something is equal to one thing or another, there are two common ways:

# Like this...
if favorite_fruit == 'grapefruit' or favorite_fruit == 'lemon':
    print("That's a weird favorite fruit to have.")

# ...or like this.
if favorite_fruit in ('grapefruit', 'lemon'):
    print("That's a weird favorite fruit to have.")

[sage otter]

Would it return the arguments into the values or keys

And how would it name them

[slate swan]

ok

[slate swan]

yeah that returns a dict what keys im not sure

[sage otter]

I don’t think that’s meant to be used for command arguments

[slate swan]

probably not

[slim ibex]

well generally people do things like reason as a kwarg

[slate swan]

still same thing (my bad for the ping)

[slate swan]

that probably has a default key of text or something

[slim ibex]

i sent that because you are using or incorrectly

[sage otter]

But but but

[slate swan]

buts!

[sage otter]

How are people gonna do that tho

are they gonna be like

ban Jim reason="haha"

[slim ibex]

no

idk hopw it works

[sage otter]

then there’s no actual purpose then for **kwargs in any command arguments

[slim ibex]

but i always see like:

async def ban(member: discord.Member, *, reason=None):
  await member.ban(reason=reason)

i worded what I said above really bad sorry. it isn't really **kwargs

[sage otter]

that triggers dpys consume rest behavior for the asterisk

[slim ibex]

mhmm

[sage otter]

I’m honestly so confused.

[slim ibex]

same

[slate swan]

probably when calling the function dpy gets all the text after it and then sets it to the kwarg idk

[slim ibex]

ye

[slate swan]

like a positional argument

[buoyant igloo]

For the MissingRequiredArguments error, how do I make it trigger when a command has two required arguments?

Example:

If you have a command called train with two arguments: amount and what. The MissingRequiredArgument error will be triggered if only the amount argument is not specified, but won’t if the what argument is not specified

[slate swan]

it depends on how you invoke the function

[buoyant igloo]

So is there a way or no?

[slate swan]

im honestly confused on how you explained it

[boreal ravine]

it stll triggers when you have more than 1 argument missing

[buoyant igloo]

Mb my explanation was rlly bad, I meant how do I make it trigger if the first argument is not specified, but the second one is

[boreal ravine]

it already triggers though

[buoyant igloo]

I tested it, it doesn’t for me at least

[slate swan]

I would like to make a bot in which I can speak through my microphone and a Discord bot plays it in vc. I'm not too sure how to get started, any help?

[desert cosmos]

are you intermediate at python ?

[slate swan]

not sure what i am, but im not a beginner

[desert cosmos]

ic, then maybe something like speachrecognition to lavalink to bot would help

¯_(ツ)_/¯

i can say its not going to be easy

[slate swan]

yep, worth a shot though

[desert cosmos]

true afterall that's how we learn 👍

[slate swan]

thanks for the help

[desert cosmos]

@slate swan if you want it to play the same audio then maybe you can ditch speech recognition part

[slate swan]

its live time, so i would speak through my microphone then it sends it somewhere for the discord bot to play the audio

[desert cosmos]

yes if you don't want it to play in a computer like sound you can skip speechrecognition part

instead of that you should look for how to record and create opus source for audio

that's not how it works ig

a second

[supple thorn]

Just put the ids in a list and loop through them

Put the id in a list

And loop through them

[desert cosmos]

@client.command()
async def test(user: discord.User):
  for id in ("id","id","id"):
    user = client.get_user(id)
    msg = "GOSHA STAFF, the server releasing 3/18/2022, be on alert for nukes"
    await user.send(msg)

[supple thorn]

The msg can just be a string it doesn't need parenthesis

[desert cosmos]

oh yeah i forgot to remove em i just copied rest of the code from 07a

[alpine tree]

is there a way to read embeds from bots?

[slate swan]

a missing colon in the for loop, and you can always use list comprehension to make things faster

[desert cosmos]

ic

[supple thorn]

I think so iirc you could do that with jishaku

[final iron]

!d discord.Message.embeds

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Message.embeds

A list of embeds the message has.

[alpine tree]

is it a library?

[final iron]

Returns a list of discord.Embed objects

Or just use what the officer gave you

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.

i try to just activate it after a user call the command, but seems like it stucks somewhere. it looks like this..

        # Double check for user reply

        user_reply = await bot.wait_for('message', timeout=15.0, check=check)

        if '.inv' not in user_reply.content or '.inventory' in user_reply.content:

Also don't create commands like that

[slate swan]

message = "very uwu message"

should work ig

[maiden fable]

Won't work

[slate swan]

nvm

[maiden fable]

get_user not member

[slate swan]

oh wait my bad

[supple thorn]

Lmao

I like how when hunter said that ashley said damn

[maiden fable]

Also would that work? The return True part?

[desert cosmos]

exactly what i was looking for
great thanks

[supple thorn]

Can you give me the ids

[slate swan]

uh it should work, idk, am too dizzy to open laptop and try

[desert cosmos]

yeah

[maiden fable]

Idk, either im sleepy or I forgot how to use list comps

Also, u didn't await it

[slate swan]

huh

[maiden fable]

Uhhh, I'mma just go away

[maiden fable]

The send

[slate swan]

uhh stop hunter

[desert cosmos]

both get_user and send need await ?

[slate swan]

only send

[desert cosmos]

then wouldn't that be a problem

[slate swan]

since any get method doesnt make any api call

[desert cosmos]

no please wait you don't have to put it in that they are both different

[slate swan]

noo, its alright user what you have rn

[maiden fable]

Just use a simple for loop at this point of confusion

[supple thorn]

It is

It just cant find the user with the ids you gave

[desert cosmos]

alright doesn't await client.get_user(id).send() will makes sense something like

await client.get_user(id)
await user.send()

[maiden fable]

Intents

Members?

[slate swan]

awaiting that in the list conp shouldnt be a problem though

[maiden fable]

IDs. Are. Int.

Remove. The. Quotes.

[slate swan]

....

[maiden fable]

Me do be sleepy

[slate swan]

sleep?

[maiden fable]

Tbh the thing I hate about dpy is that, discord returns the IDs in the form of strings, so why they don't allow strings

[maiden fable]

Woke up like, idk, 2 hours ago. Gonna go down

[slate swan]

they are ibthryer

i intgers*

integers*

[maiden fable]

The API does accept strings too

[slate swan]

rip, everybody's in their own world nowadays

Idk, was just bored with the eval command

Reacts with a different emoji when eval fails

[desert cosmos]

what is your question

[left crater]

i want it to print the user on a new line

i put \n

[maiden fable]

Add the new line character before, not after

[native wedge]

how would I make an eval command?

[slate swan]

no comments

[maiden fable]

Better

[maiden fable]

!d exec is what I have used

[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`.

Similar names: 2to3fixer.exec

[supple thorn]

I use snekbox

[maiden fable]

!d eval can also be used

[unkempt canyon]

eval

eval(expression[, globals[, locals]])```
The arguments are a string and optional globals and locals. If provided, *globals* must be a dictionary. If provided, *locals* can be any mapping object.

[maiden fable]

But everyone tends to use jsk

[desert cosmos]

try doing
[ctx.send(e) for e in p]

[alpine tree]

anyone has an idea on how to read bot embeds after executing a command?

[desert cosmos]

wonder if discord will throw something like too many calls

[maiden fable]

It will

[slate swan]

it should if many requests are made, then goodlhck getting your ip ratelimited

[left crater]

wait where

[desert cosmos]

don't do it like that

[left crater]

i just want it to write it on a new line

how is that going to help

[slate swan]

txt files as a db

You do know the word isn't funny anymore right?

!rule 7

Rules

7. Keep discussions relevant to the channel topic. Each channel's description tells you the topic.

[maiden fable]

Smh

[sage otter]

Is this the up to date payload response?

[maiden fable]

Got from ddevs docs

[sage otter]

because like that premium_type thing shouldn’t exist anymore. Discord stopped giving that information about long.

Idk then.

[maiden fable]

Most probably the docs ain't updated

[sage otter]

Sending the raw list? Is this like for debugging or something or the actual wanted result.

[odd prawn]

That doesn't look right.
Can you link the relevant documentation for that?

[boreal ravine]

sure

[boreal ravine]

just let them be

you can always block people

[maiden fable]

I ain't blocking anyone, specially friends. Just telling her that it isn't fun to say that anymore

🗿 right

https://discord.com/developers/docs/resources/user#user-object-example-user

[slate swan]

no need for f strigs at all

[latent anchor]

will the bot still works if i go bot.command and bot.event in the same code?

[maiden fable]

Yea

[latent anchor]

but mine dont work rn?

[maiden fable]

Lemme guess

U got an on_message with bot.event deco

[latent anchor]

yes

[maiden fable]

Change the deco to bot.listen()

[sick birch]

I really wish this would get pinned

[latent anchor]

not bot.event?

[maiden fable]

Nope

[latent anchor]

oh ok

[maiden fable]

Hehe

[latent anchor]

tysm

[maiden fable]

Is fine

[latent anchor]

now the bot.listen dont work

[maiden fable]

istg this is the. most. common. problem.

[latent anchor]

uh

[maiden fable]

u forgot to add () after listen

[latent anchor]

oh wow

u know everything

[sick birch]

it drives me up the wall

[maiden fable]

[sick birch]

and also client = commands.Bot(...)

and json-as-a-db

many things in regard to discord bots make me mad

[maiden fable]

I wish tutorials stop using bot.event and instead use bot.listen

I can bet half the tutorials don't even know what bot.event deco does lmaoo

[sick birch]

more like all of them

[maiden fable]

Indeed

Well what I have learnt. Seeing others help or helping others, help clear your doubts more, than just reading the docs or seeing tutorials

[sick birch]

Unfortunately these youtube tutorials point beginners in the wrong direction

[maiden fable]

Indeed

[slate swan]

I didn't found a good discord.py related tutorial yet, Carberra got some decent ones but not easy to understand for someone who just started with python

[spring flax]

anyone mind explaining what channel.overwrites_for returns?

[slate swan]

check the docs?

[spring flax]

can you link it

I don't know what it's called lol

[slate swan]

https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/stable/api.html?highlight=overwrites_for#discord.abc.GuildChannel.overwrites_for

[brazen raft]

Permission overwrites are the exceptions of permissions of members or roles you configure in a channel

[spring flax]

oh its overwrites

i thought it was overrides my bad

[brazen raft]

So you can set permissions for roles, right? You can also specify per channel exceptions for these permissions, and also specify exceptions for members in a channel

[slate swan]

yeah

stack

[swift monolith]

for bot prefix how to add multiple

bot = commands.Bot(command_prefix= "mp." and "Mp." and "mP." and "MP.")

is it like this cuz this is not working

[slate swan]

add a list iirc it can accept a list

[swift monolith]

bot = commands.Bot(command_prefix= ["mp." ,"Mp." ,"mP." ,"MP."])
like this

[slate swan]

yes

[maiden fable]

discord.py-self does exist tho

[slate swan]

ikr, thats stackoverflow's comment

[maiden fable]

It do be down for maintenance the last time i used (had to use the read only version)

[placid geode]

hello there!

import discord
from discord.ext import commands

bot = commands.Bot(command_prefix='.')

@bot.event
async def on_ready():
    print('Bot is online')

@bot.command(name='poopy')
async def ping(ctx):
    await ctx.send('droopy')

bot.run('urmom')```
Is anything wrong in the code cuz the bot's isn't responding

[slate swan]

how did you invoked the command

the command should be invoked as .poopy

[maiden fable]

[jolly basalt]

Im trying to list all available commands. This works but it shows commands in an odd way

I want it to be like

1. viewblacklist
2. changeprefix
3. examplecommand

etc

[slate swan]

Use the join statement

"\n".join(commands)

[oblique cobalt]

inline=False for each

[oblique cobalt]

bruh no

[slate swan]

ah , you want the number too

[placid geode]

.poopy

[slate swan]

Did you read what they need?.

[oblique cobalt]

yes i did

[slate swan]

fields won't work there.

[oblique cobalt]

it will work lmao

[jolly basalt]

ah tysm

[slate swan]

Huh?

[oblique cobalt]

just inline off, add dot to name thing

and you got what he needs

[slate swan]

it will show up as ```
1
command1

2
command 2

[oblique cobalt]

oh yeah about that i forgot

well yeah join then ig

[inner epoch]

Hey guys how do I know if my bot was tagged in the message and retrieve message content

[slate swan]

!e ```py
list_cmds= ["ping", "pong"]
var = ""
index = 1
for cmd in range(len(list_cmds)-1):
var+= f"{index}. {cmd}"
index+=1
print(var)

[maiden fable]

!d discord.ClientUser.mentioned_in

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ClientUser.mentioned\_in

mentioned_in(message)```
Checks if the user is mentioned in the specified message.

[slate swan]

Um

[jolly basalt]

How to know who clicked a reaction generated by a bot

[slate swan]

Oh wait

[maiden fable]

if bot.user.mentioned_in(message):
. . .

[oblique cobalt]

len(list)

[jolly basalt]

like how does the python bot know when I click that 🗑️ icon

[oblique cobalt]

range is gonna do the work

[inner epoch]

Umm how to do it with this function async def on_message(message) ?

[maiden fable]

^^^

[slate swan]

Yea I didn't index the list

!e ```py
list_cmds= ["ping", "pong"]
var = ""
index = 1
for cmd in range(len(list_cmds)):
var+= f"{index}. {list_cmds[cmd]}\n"
index+=1
print(var)

[oblique cobalt]

why just not enumerate ? 🤔

[inner epoch]

I just want it like when the bot is tagged and a word is said it sends back something

[slate swan]

Like this

[jolly basalt]

👀

[slate swan]

Use bot.wait_for

with "reaction_add" as the event

[jolly basalt]

ohk

[inner epoch]

How do I use async def on_message(message) to know if my bot was tagged and if it was then retrieve its message

Can some1 explain with an example

[slate swan]

if Bot.user in Message.mentions```

[jolly basalt]

uhm, i can't think

[inner epoch]

Aye let me try that

[jolly basalt]

can you please send an example

[slate swan]

!d discord.ext.commands.Bot.wait_for

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ext.commands.Bot.wait\_for

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

Waits for a WebSocket event to be dispatched.

This could be used to wait for a user to reply to a message, or to react to a message, or to edit a message in a self-contained way.

The `timeout` parameter is passed onto [`asyncio.wait_for()`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/asyncio-task.html#asyncio.wait_for "(in Python v3.10)"). By default, it does not timeout. Note that this does propagate the [`asyncio.TimeoutError`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/asyncio-exceptions.html#asyncio.TimeoutError "(in Python v3.10)") for you in case of timeout and is provided for ease of use.

In case the event returns multiple arguments, a [`tuple`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/stdtypes.html#tuple "(in Python v3.10)") containing those arguments is returned instead. Please check the [documentation](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/api.html#discord-api-events) for a list of events and their parameters.

This function returns the **first event that meets the requirements**...

[inner epoch]

Hey is there also a way to eliminate my id mentioned....like I can remove it but how to get it?

[hot sparrow]

how do i keep a bot up all the time?

[sick birch]

Use a VPS

Personally I recommend AWS EC2 instances but any of these are valid: #discord-bots message

[inner epoch]

Use repl it which is free

[sick birch]

No please don't

[inner epoch]

Why?

[sick birch]

Replit and heroku are amongst the worst

[inner epoch]

I dont use it now as I have vps but peeps can atleast start from there

[sick birch]

See here for more info: #discord-bots message
tl;dr, replit was meant for running quick test apps or code snippets, not for extended applications that need to be on 24/7

[inner epoch]

Ohh ok so you follow all the rules....

[sick birch]

What do you mean?

[inner epoch]

Well see every1 on here is not old enough to have cc to verify for aws and other free trials so they can use heroku or replit till then

[sick birch]

I suppose you could but it's honestly terrible

[inner epoch]

Well peeps always have the options to shift to paid vps but till the time they can experiment with the available free ones

[drifting arrow]

Whats max amount of characters in a discord embed?

[sick birch]

2000

[drifting arrow]

Does that include the title and all that?

[inner epoch]

Umm btw uk how do I get my bot id and is it diff in each server?

[sick birch]

Yes

[drifting arrow]

Ty @sick birch 🙂

[sick birch]

discord.Embed objects have a __len__ function to check the size to make sure it's sendable

e = discord.Embed(...)
if len(e) < 2000:
  # send embed
else:
  # oops, too big 

[sick birch]

Your bot ID is constant throughout discord

[slate swan]

Beggars can't be choosers

[jolly basalt]

How do I get unicode of emojis like this

[inner epoch]

Aha got it I just want it so if it fetch messages then I can eliminate the id and get the content of msg

[supple thorn]

Well there is a vps company offering i found offering a vps for just voting for them

[inner epoch]

True....

[slate swan]

no such thing.

[supple thorn]

Well do you wanna see

[slate swan]

how would a server be free seems fishy

[inner epoch]

Check if they are genuine and they dont steal your files and data instead

[sick birch]

Perhaps but I can't attest to their quality. They're not making money directly off of you so they have no obligation to provide high quality servers

[inner epoch]

How do I fetch it for my current client?

[supple thorn]

It's not a long time way to have a vps

[sick birch]

Services such as AWS, google cloud hosting, and microsoft azure are all industry standard and provide high quality services to use

[supple thorn]

They offer it so they can get more known

[sick birch]

bot.user.id if you're using bot, client.user.id for client

[inner epoch]

Aha let me try that

[inner epoch]

Aye it works thanks a lot for that!!

[inner epoch]

Yea but still google, aws, micorsoft are already very well known

[sick birch]

Many popular and demanding services use them, so obviously they need to be high standards

[supple thorn]

Yeah but i'll still use their services before i'll switch to more of a known vps provider

They are pretty generous to the vps specs they give

[sick birch]

I'm assuming it's a startup?

[supple thorn]

A startup company?

[sick birch]

Yeah

[supple thorn]

I don't think so i just found them recently but i got told it's been operating for years

[sick birch]

Looks like they're just trying to advertise themselves

[inner epoch]

Well all the best with it!! Bcs I wont go risking my files and scripts....It takes me hours to code things so I want just simply hand over them my code for getting a vps

[inner epoch]

Are you talking about oracle?

[sick birch]

Understandable, to each their own

[inner epoch]

Uk abt oracle free tier?

[supple thorn]

No

[sick birch]

Don't know about oracle. Only ever used AWS myself

[inner epoch]

Oracle free tier offers like 24gb ram,4core cpu and 48 gb storage I have been using it for a while and havent faced any issues

[inner epoch]

Check the specs and its always free

I dont use it for hosting my major sites or script but its handy

[sick birch]

Meh I'm satisfied with the aws suite of services

[inner epoch]

For hosting main sites always prefer paid ones

[inner epoch]

Aye thats good

[sick birch]

I need a domain and to host a site for a project I'm working on so it's nicer to keep everything in once place

[green bluff]

why cant i open my bot database file

[inner epoch]

Aye....all the best....wishing you all the success

how do i add aliases to accept "test" with anything caps

without just doing all possible combinations

[inner epoch]

By bot works perfectly thanks @sick birch @maiden fable for all the help may god bless you with all the wealth, health and success destined for you!!

[slate swan]

kind human bean

[maiden fable]

Nice

[maiden fable]

Rare

[slate swan]

yup

[slate swan]

well it takes a list a of strings so idk how it would be done

[maiden fable]

Thankss, hope the same for you (:

[swift monolith]

how about something with .lower()

[desert heart]

There isn't an easy way to do it for just one alias. You could do it for the entire command with case_insensitive=True in the decorator.

Actually, that may only work for command groups.

[swift monolith]

i would like that for all commands anyway

[desert heart]

Ah good

You can pass that to your Bot object when you create it

[swift monolith]

oh thanks

so i can remove the aliases in all commands

ok it works tysm

[exotic kite]

!d
pip install discord

[slate swan]

Just enter case_insensitive= True in your commands.Bot and all your commands will automatically be case insensitive

No need to do that for all cmds

Hello, I develop a bot discord in python and I have a problem with the clear command

[honest shoal]

what's clear command?

[slate swan]

To delete messages in a room with +clear

[honest shoal]

you mean purge?

[slate swan]

yes

excuse me for my language, me speack french

[honest shoal]

oh, alright

!d discord.TextChannel.purge

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

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

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

Changed in version 2.0: The `reason` keyword-only parameter was added.

Examples

Deleting bot’s messages...

[hazy oxide]

what is Scheme "none" is not supported error?

[slate swan]

I have this for the moment
@bot.command() @commands.has_permissions(manage_messages = True) async def clear(ctx, nombre : int): messages = await ctx.channel.history(limit = nombre + 1).flatten() for message in messages: await message.delete()

[honest shoal]

if you don't want to be rate limited use this function^

[honest shoal]

where are you trying to set none?

[slate swan]

I don't care about the rate

I just wish it would delete all at once and not little by little and send a success message at the end that stays 3 seconds and then deletes itself

[inner epoch]

😀

[honest shoal]

it is not possible, you will be rate limited. use TextChannel.purge instead

that's actually made for bulk deleting messages

[slate swan]

Where do I put it?

[honest shoal]

you can purge on ctx.channel

which will be a text channel

[slate swan]

@bot.command() @commands.has_permissions(manage_messages = True) async def clear(ctx, nombre : int): messages = await ctx.channel(limit = nombre + 1).flatten() for message in messages: await message.delete()
Like this?

[honest shoal]

no this is not purge function

[slate swan]

I don't understand in this case

Deleting bot’s messages...

[slate swan]

I put where the code in my code ?

[honest shoal]

I literally told here.

[slate swan]

ohh excuse me 😭

[honest shoal]

and the limit parameter is also inside purge, so it will be too easy to use it instead of deleting one by one

[slate swan]

Like this ?
@bot.command() @commands.has_permissions(manage_messages = True) async def clear(ctx, nombre : int): messages = await purge(*, limit=100, check=..., before=None, after=None, around=None, oldest_first=False, bulk=True, reason=None) for message in messages: await message.delete()

[honest shoal]

well no.

[slate swan]

Bruhhh

[honest shoal]

you don't even need a for loop

[whole shoal]

await ctx.channel.purge

[slate swan]

Like this ?
@bot.command() @commands.has_permissions(manage_messages = True) async def clear(ctx, nombre : int): messages = await ctx.channel.purge(*, limit=100, check=..., before=None, after=None, around=None, oldest_first=False, bulk=True, reason=None) for message in messages: await message.delete()

[hazy oxide]

Can someone help? I got this error

nextcord.errors.HTTPException: 400 Bad Request (error code: 50035): Invalid Form Body
In data.embeds0.thumbnail.url: Scheme "none" is not supported. Scheme must be one of ('http', 'https'). 

[honest shoal]

what are you doing?

[whole shoal]

Like this

@bot.command()

async def clear(ctx, nombre : int):
    await ctx.channel.purge(*, limit=100, check=..., before=None, after=None, around=None, oldest_first=False, bulk=True, reason=None)

[hazy oxide]

im getting that error when i run my serverinfo command

[honest shoal]

🥄

[honest shoal]

show the code please.

[torn sail]

Maybe the guild icon banner etc is none. Print it and check

[hazy oxide]

wait

@client.command(aliases=["serverinfo"])
@commands.cooldown(1, 5, commands.BucketType.user)
async def si(ctx):
  role_count = len(ctx.guild.roles)
  list_of_bots = [bot.mention for bot in ctx.guild.members if bot.bot]

  siEm = nextcord.Embed(timestamp=ctx.message.created_at, color=ctx.author.color)

  siEm.set_footer(text=f"Requested by {ctx.author}", icon_url=ctx.author.avatar.url)

  await ctx.send(embed=siEm)

[torn sail]

ctx.guild.icon.url not ctx.guild.icon

[hazy oxide]

oww okay lemme try

[slate swan]

I have 2 errors in the red lines

[honest shoal]

you are just copy pasting, remove that

[hazy oxide]

still error, it says no attribute "url"

[whole shoal]

_url

[hazy oxide]

ow underscore

[hazy oxide]

'Guild' object has no attribute "icon_url"

[whole shoal]

Uhm one sec

[honest shoal]

guild_icon.url

[honest shoal]

are you setting up any reason?

[slate swan]

no

[hazy oxide]

no errors in console, but the embed won't appear

[honest shoal]

so why there's a reason arg.
it should be just limit=nombre in you case

[slate swan]

ohhh ok

[whole shoal]

Isn't it supposed to be
icon_url=ctx.author.avatar_url
@hazy oxide

[honest shoal]

its display in 2.0 I think

[whole shoal]

oh

[honest shoal]

so ctx.author.display_avatar.url

[slate swan]

He just did it to me again

[honest shoal]

what's your code now?

[slate swan]

@bot.command() @commands.has_permissions(manage_messages = True) async def clear(ctx, nombre : int): await ctx.channel.purge( limit=nombre, check=..., before=None, after=None, around=None, oldest_first=False, bulk=True, reason=None)

[somber sky]

anyone know how to make a createrole command

[whole shoal]

Limit should be int right?

Oh nvm nombre is variable

[hazy oxide]

wait, author?

aren't that shows user avatar? i want the embed thumbnail shows the guild avatar

[whole shoal]

It's for the footer

[hazy oxide]

so i just have to change author to guild?

[honest shoal]

well, if you just have 1 parameter in your code why are you using the other parameters in limit?

[whole shoal]

check should be a check function not . . . xd

[slate swan]

How is that?

[honest shoal]

@hazy oxide which version of dpy are you using?

[hazy oxide]

im using nextcord 2.9

2.0.9a

[honest shoal]

nvm, try with display. I'm not familiar with nextcord

[hazy oxide]

i think im just gonna remove the guild avatar as the embed thumbnail

[honest shoal]

why don't you print them for testing instead?

[slate swan]

I have to delete nombre : int ?

[whole shoal]

No

[honest shoal]

no just the last line should be await ctx.channel.purge(limit=nombre)

[slate swan]

Thank you very much.
How can I get him to send a message saying that it has been deleted and then he deletes his message 3 seconds later?

[honest shoal]

send a message and make it a variable. sleep for 3 seconds and delete the message

[slate swan]

asyncio ?

[honest shoal]

yes

[turbid prawn]

Any help in this discord for slack bots?

[slate swan]

What is the command sleep 3 seconds so that it deletes after?

[honest shoal]

what's slack?

[turbid prawn]

its like a discount discord for companies

[honest shoal]

await asyncio.sleep(3)
await message.delete()```

[slate swan]

thanks go testing

[honest shoal]

I'm not familiar with that, mind showing their library?

[turbid prawn]

https://api.slack.com/community

[honest shoal]

hmmm

[slate swan]

It does not find the message to delete

[honest shoal]

look again at the first step here ^

[empty quest]

where can you host a discord bot made in python for free? 24/7

[supple thorn]

On your pc

[honest shoal]

^

[slate swan]

I don't understand

[honest shoal]

message variable will be the message you are sending...

[empty quest]

is there any other way as i would like it to be 24/7

[honest shoal]

pay

[supple thorn]

Still your pc

You can just leave it on 24/7

[empty quest]

what about heroku?

[honest shoal]

read this message then ^

[slate swan]

I can't find

[honest shoal]

what are you expecting now?

[slate swan]

I can't find the variable to put.
I'm a beginner in python

[honest shoal]

you don't have to find it, you have to make it

okay, tell me how do you send a message?

[slate swan]

await ctx.send(f"{nombre} messages ont été supprimés")

[dim vapor]

why wont discord send archived threads when the bot connects? or is there a work around for this?

[honest shoal]

now just make this a variable py message = await ctx.send(f"{nombre} messages ont été supprimés")

[empty quest]

if you put your pc to sleep will a bot being hosted on the pc go offline?

[honest shoal]

make a webserver on your pc

[empty quest]

i am new to web servers

if you make a webserver then will the bot stay online all the time?

[honest shoal]

if your pc is on, yes

[empty quest]

if on sleep mode?

[honest shoal]

also hosting is not related to this channel...

this is a python server

!ot for that

!d discord.Guild.create_role

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Guild.create\_role

await create_role(*, name=..., permissions=..., color=..., colour=..., hoist=..., display_icon=..., mentionable=..., reason=None)```
This function is a [*coroutine*](https://docs.python.org/3/library/asyncio-task.html#coroutine).

Creates a [`Role`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/api.html#discord.Role "discord.Role") for the guild.

All fields are optional.

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

Changed in version 1.6: Can now pass `int` to `colour` keyword-only parameter.

New in version 2.0: The `display_icon` keyword-only parameter was added...

[pliant ocean]

can anyone help me how to use praw in replit

[supple thorn]

Asyncpraw?

[pliant ocean]

both

[slate swan]

Do I have to do the moderation commands in another .py file or can I leave everything in the same file as now ?

[supple thorn]

For a bot?

[pliant ocean]

yes

[honest shoal]

its your choice

[slate swan]

won't it create a collision ?

[supple thorn]

Why would you use regular praw

[pliant ocean]

okay so how do i use asyncpraw in replit

[supple thorn]

That would be blocking

[honest shoal]

of what?

[supple thorn]

Collision?

[somber sky]

would it go under permissions?

[slate swan]

The different commands in the same file

[honest shoal]

wdym?

[supple thorn]

You'd have to install asyncpraw using the packager first

Then just learn how to use asyncpraw by reading their docs

[pliant ocean]

okayy

[honest shoal]

its you call whether you want to make everything in a same file or sorting them in different ones.

[somber sky]

im trying to make it where when the role is created it automatically has the "display role name sepretely then online" but idk how to do that

[pliant ocean]

do i need to install asyncpraw or asyncpraw core

[honest shoal]

that's called hoisting on discord

[slate swan]

I'll leave it in the same file so I don't have to search everywhere in case there is an error later on

[honest shoal]

read about it here

[supple thorn]

Asyncpraw

[somber sky]

oo alr

[honest shoal]

errors explains everything...

[slate swan]

I will come back to you if I have any more questions.

[honest shoal]

[slate swan]

[sonic lintel]

Does anyone have a good reference to make roleplay commands? e.g hug, cry e.t.c

[slate swan]

what do you want to do in those?

[sonic lintel]

So for hug the command would be "(prefix) hug (user)" It would send an embed with a generated "User is hugging User" message and a gif from a list of gifs

[honest shoal]

list of gifs
use an API instead

[sonic lintel]

nono I mean reference code for when the user tags another user

[maiden fable]

Do i see cringe commands again? 👀

[sonic lintel]

Ill try it thanks!

I am using cogs so I will have to change it a bit

[maiden fable]

Doesn't it use the discord namespace?

[honest shoal]

on your pc

[maiden fable]

U got a cc? @slate swan

or check here ^

[honest shoal]

then I can combine 10 others things lol

Just wanted to say, if the hosting talk is related to discord bots, then it can be done in this channel. If the hosting talk is related to websites, then #web-development and so on

U using replit?

Ah okay mb

[alpine furnace]

Replit mf

Someone make a kubernetes operator that spins up replit instances

And deploys your discord bots on them

[maiden fable]

😔

Might as well get that Oracle VPS and host everyone's bots on it

[alpine furnace]

The free tier one right

What’s the resource steal like on that one

[maiden fable]

24 GB RAM

Idk 4 vCores or smth

Or it was 6 🤷

[heavy folio]

i got this error when trying to start up the bot:

[manic wing]

can we see your code?

did you pass a loop that wasnt an AbstractEventLoop

[fervent surge]

for some reason, this does not work: python c.execute(f"INSERT INTO features (message_id) VALUES({message.id})") c.commit() literally nothing happens, fyi message.id is not null

im pretty sure it works for some reason(until the bot is closed) if I remove c.commit()

[heavy folio]

it worked on my dev bot (not on latest commit)

[manic wing]

no, you always have to pass an AbstractEventLoop

[alpine furnace]

I meant what the resource steal is

[heavy folio]

it worked previously?

[alpine furnace]

You’re not really getting 6 cores

[tacit token]

anybody?

[heavy folio]

on my host it installs the latest commits and it worked a few hours ago

[manic wing]

well it clearly doesnt work now

what loop are you passing

[alpine furnace]

You’re 60% of those 6 cores, or something like that if they claim vcpus

[heavy folio]

and i havent changed anything in that file

[alpine furnace]

Might be worth a stress test to check

[manic wing]

maybe it never actually worked

[alpine furnace]

The shitty providers will shut you down straight away if you burst to 100% for over 5 minutes

Yes, I know the specs

[maiden fable]

Lmao what the

[heavy folio]

i just said my dev bot is literally running with the same code

[maiden fable]

Hmm, idk then. Never bothered to google tbh

[alpine furnace]

Hmm

[manic wing]

maybe the code didnt update

can you just tell me what loop you're passing?

[slate swan]

You need a Docker file to run your bot 24/24 on replit right?

[maiden fable]

Nope

[modest plover]

Running a bot 24/7 on replit is a bad idea

It'll get ratelimited very easily

[slate swan]

what do you advise me to do for free in this case ?

[supple thorn]

Self-host

[slate swan]

my computer doesn't run 24 hours a day because I'm in boarding school

[supple thorn]

Find someone with a vps and smooth talk your way into getting them to host your bot you

[alpine furnace]

Literally anything that can run 24h can host a discord bot, so maybe an old phone with termux

[alpine furnace]

👀 I mean, sure, if you dockerize that shit and dm me the repo

[supple thorn]

Is this an opportunity?

👀

[alpine furnace]

[heavy folio]

i was right, it's an api issue #381979045090426881 message something along there was changed a few minutes ago

bot loads now

[manic wing]

whelp

[alpine furnace]

Find out

@slate swan

[supple thorn]

Iceatea this is your only chance

Jump on it

[slate swan]

yes ?

Not sure how I’d handle your image updates, cause I don’t have watchtower installed

[supple thorn]

Do you know how to dockerize

[slate swan]

I do not have access to the link

[heavy folio]

dpy server

[manic wing]

well i was right

i told you it needed abstracteventloop

[slate swan]

no

[heavy folio]

it worked previously, they just changed it

[supple thorn]

Learn

[velvet tinsel]

Caeden being big brain 🧠

[alpine furnace]

Yooo, that’s good shit though

Pretty cringe for bots to make their own event loop

[kindred drum]

how do I create a dynamic time?

eg. about 1hour

like the discord times

[manic wing]

my wrapper allows for loop input

[heavy folio]

!d discord.utils.format_dt

[heavy folio]

is it this -> <t:694206969:R>

[kindred drum]

ye, but how would I do it for a date in the future?

[heavy folio]

that was an example

[kindred drum]

how would I make this: 2022-03-13 10:38:54.450255 into that format

[heavy folio]

pass in a datetime object

[kindred drum]

'discord.utils' has no attribute 'format_d

ye

thats the error, i cut it off

not able to read csv file

heh

[supple thorn]

Why are you asking this here

In discord bots channel

[heavy folio]

this channel is for help regarding discord bots

[lone hare]

yep am making a bot tbh

for saving price data

[kindred drum]

I did it

[supple thorn]

Still you should get a help channel than here

[kindred drum]

:)"<t:"+str(round(e.timestamp()))+":R>"

[supple thorn]

Cause it's more python than discord bot

[lone hare]

https://tenor.com/view/the-office-michael-scott-leaving-turning-around-no-gif-21361019

[kindred drum]

How do I make a muted role work? like so it can't send messages etc

[supple thorn]

Make it's send messages to false in channels

[kindred drum]

I do

but it just gets over ridden by other things

[supple thorn]

Sounds like a discord hierachy problem

Can't really help with that cause i don't know shit how to fix hierachy shit

[kindred drum]

I found it, you gotta set all the other roles to neutral in sending messages

then have that one not be able to send them

[slate swan]

So i want a command, that if you type ?add @slate swan 10
It gets stored in a database (json) like this:

{
"guildId": {"userId": 10}
}

Ive just opened vsc and its saying most of my imports are undefined, yet they worked yesterday and all the other days before that??

[maiden fable]

Wrong python version

[slate swan]

whats the latest python version?

[humble granite]

[junior verge]

How is this possible when I only have 1 on_ready in all my code

[supple thorn]

Json isn't a database

I suggest learning how to use a real database

[slate swan]

i tried learning sql but couldnt find good tutorials

[supple thorn]

Show your code

[alpine furnace]

You need to look harder

[stone beacon]

EIther ur using the wrong python version, accidentally uninstalled all ya packages or vscode isn't seeing your python env

[alpine furnace]

Sql is fundamental and used everywhere, of course there would be phenomenal tutorials and courses for it

[slate swan]

whats the right python version?

[stone beacon]

This confuses my eyes

[stone beacon]

Whichever version you have discord.py installed on 👀 that's what I mean

[slate swan]

im using pycord

[junior verge]

Of what, main? I use cogs

uhh well, try reinstalling it then

        print('Daxbot is ready!')

        servers = len(client.guilds)
        members = 0
        for guild in client.guilds:
            members += guild.member_count - 1

        await client.change_presence(activity = discord.Activity(
            type = discord.ActivityType.watching,
            name = f'{servers} servers and {members} members'
        ))

client.run(config["bot_token"])

``` Should it be @client.event or @client.command I am confused rn

[stone beacon]

de-indent that on_ready()

[supple thorn]

Why is your on_ready indented

[stone beacon]

That for-loop is registering on_ready() on every iteration which throws the error

[junior verge]

Oh yeah my bad

Still same error
