Invites are more associated with a channel

But one person can create multiple invites

On the other hand one invite can only point to one channel so it's better to think of invites as associated with a channel rather than a member

A guild being at the max amount of invites, 1000, doesn't matter

[ebon island]

What is the best way to listen to a VoiceChannel and do something when a member joins or leaves a specific voice channel?

Ideally, the behavior I would like is as follows:

Establish a channel and create an event listener for that channel in particular as a rather than a chain of similar cases like if channel_id==xyz in the body of a general method handling a voice state change over the whole channel, if there are many different channels that sounds like an awful way of handling individual channels
one idea I had was to create a channel object and somehow establish a listener pattern within it but not sure how to manage that, although that would certainly be a nice way of doing things if anyone has ideas on that?

looked at the following link:
https://discord.com/developers/docs/resources/voice#voice-state-object

I notice you get a dict with the channel id and all
so I can definitely process that
but I'd like to find means by which to do so efficiently - any ideas?

[sick birch]

There's no native way. You'll need to compare the channel which they joined to the specific channel you want

[foggy merlin]

ok so lets take this servers invite for example. discord.gg/python I think? I send this link to someone and they join. How would a bot know that I have invited them?

[vocal plover]

it wouldnt because you didnt make the invite

[foggy merlin]

so how do invite trackers know?

[vocal plover]

by looking at which invite was used and who created that invite

if person A creates an invite and person B sends it to person C who joins with it, it's effectively person A who invited C

[sick birch]

You would get all the invites from before that member joined. Compare that to all the invites after the member joined. One of those invites will be one more than it was before, that's how you know they joined using that invite

[pliant gulch]

discord gives no good way of telling if an invite was used, other than invite count

But that isn’t very good either

[velvet compass]

!sm set #discord-bots 4s

[unkempt canyon]

✅ The slowmode delay for #discord-bots is now 4 seconds.

[vocal plover]

The only effective way of tracking invites is to go through an OAuth flow on a bot's website because then the bot gets explicit info

[vocal plover]

thanku

[sick birch]

Say you have these invites:
X - 1 use
Y - 1 use
Z - 2 uses

now say a member joined, this is how the invites look like now:
X - 2 uses
Y - 1 use
Z - 2 uses

Now you know that the user joined using invite X

[tame nymph]

What is the length of invites

[foggy merlin]

yes I know that. But if I want to reward someone for inviting 100 people, I wouldn't know who invited who

[tame nymph]

Like if let’s say I’m generating random invite codes how would I implement it

[foggy merlin]

I would just know which invitation was used

[pliant gulch]

I’m some cases you’d get wrong info with how this works as well though

[vocal plover]

Discord really frowns upon invite-for-reward servers, my advice would be to just not do that at all

[tame nymph]

pls help

I need to implement an algorithm to generate random discord invite codes

[vocal plover]

Could you explain a bit more about what you're trying to achieve :P

[foggy merlin]

oh ok :/

thanks

[vocal plover]

You don't get to choose Discord invites so you'd have to let discord generate them for you

[tame nymph]

It’s a fiverr order I need to generate random discord invite codes

[honest shoal]

create random strings 8 characters long

[vocal plover]

I'm not sure I understand, you need to create random invalid discord invite codes for fiverr?

[manic wing]

what

[tame nymph]

8 characters long Base64?

[tame nymph]

yeah

And they could be valid right

[vocal plover]

This sounds either useless or malicious, likely the latter, so I'm afraid out of an abundance of caution I won't be able to help

[tame nymph]

Ok I guess let me ask this order guy a bit more

[honest vessel]

[true salmon]

is there a way to group commands in nextcord?

[tame nymph]

Nvm

Anyways

[vocal plover]

Text or slash commands?

[flat solstice]

anyone got any examples of auto complete in action? I'm not really sure what the difference is between choices and auto complete as they seem rather similar

[vocal plover]

Here's an example someone made of how it could be used https://raw.githubusercontent.com/vcokltfre/autocomplete-calc-poc/master/example.mp4

[true salmon]

text commands

[vocal plover]

if you're using cogs you should be able to use @commands.group() instead of @commands.command()

[unkempt canyon]

@slate swan, looks like you posted a Discord webhook URL. Therefore, your message has been removed, and your webhook has been deleted. You can re-create it if you wish to. If you believe this was a mistake, please let us know.

[true salmon]

currently im using bot.getCommand("commandname").module

[flat solstice]

that's auto complete I take it? seems super laggy ngl

[true salmon]

syntax?

[vocal plover]

It only sends the text after you stop typing for a while so that your app doesn't get spammed with requests

[true salmon]

can I add a group name?

You'll probably find this useful: https://nextcord.readthedocs.io/en/stable/ext/commands/api.html#nextcord.ext.commands.group

[flat solstice]

yeah makes sense

[true salmon]

how do I get the group?

so the name of the group from the command?

how do I get that

[vocal plover]

I'm not sure what you mean

[true salmon]

so I got a discord command as a variable

and I want to get the group of the command

[vocal plover]

if a command is part of a group then its parent attribute will be the group

[tardy atlas]

Is it possible to make the replit bot work 24/7?

[true salmon]

also I can't set the footer if an embed

[vocal plover]

you have to use embed.set_footer() to set the footer

!d nextcord.Embed.set_footer

[unkempt canyon]

nextcord.Embed.set\_footer

set_footer(*, text=Embed.Empty, icon_url=Embed.Empty)```
Sets the footer for the embed content.

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

[royal jasper]

how can i unban a member? when i try member.unban(reason=None) return invoke error

[vocal plover]

you have to unban via a guild object since someone who is banned cannot be a member

!d discord.Guild.unban

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Guild.unban

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

Unbans a user from the guild.

The user must meet the [`abc.Snowflake`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/api.html#discord.abc.Snowflake "discord.abc.Snowflake") abc.

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

[vocal plover]

you can pass a discord.Object() into the ban method in place of an actual user/member object

[vocal plover]

DiscordWebhook isn't a thing, you're probably looking for just Webhook

which you need to import from discord/nextcord/disnake/your library of choice

[tame nymph]

Can you join a server doing POST/api/v9/invites/{invite_code} ?!?!

[vocal plover]

no

[tame nymph]

I’m getting confused

My friend said I can

[vocal plover]

bots can only join servers by being added by someone with permissions

[tame nymph]

k thanks

[slate swan]

ey, im extremely new to python

[flat solstice]

so I have a list of cogs that my bot loads stored in a config.py file. I'm working on making commands to load/unload/reload cogs and felt that using the choices class made the most sense bc it could provide the user with a list of my cogs but I'm not sure which implementation of choices https://gist.github.com/Rapptz/c4324f17a80c94776832430007ad40e6#choices would be the best to use for my use case (keep in mind the cogs are stored in the list as "cogs.cog_name" so I'll need to do some string splitting to remove the "cogs." part from the lists strings

[true salmon]

set_footer needs 1 argument but recieves 2?

[slate swan]

Does anyone know who i have an error here?

[honest vessel]

if u selfbotting wich we dont support here

[slate swan]

https://gyazo.com/daed28ba5d61118ef375a3dd42ab4889

anyone know what causes that error

[tame nymph]

I know but client wants a bot that joins servers

[honest vessel]

yes u dont use " " @slate swan

[slate swan]

dont work

[honest vessel]

url=f"{ngrok}/voice"

[slate swan]

think i fixed it

just testing

[tame nymph]

Bruh this guy has like $1000 USD budget and he wants a bot that joins server and DMs every member invite

What do I do

Decline?

[honest vessel]

@tame nymphleave this server or stop talking abotu it.

[vocal plover]

Tell him no

because that's against Discord's terms of service

[tame nymph]

Ok

[honest vessel]

and clearly not a task for you anyway if u need to come here ask for help.

[slate swan]

@vocal plover it is a thing btw i fixed it i imported the wrong thing

[vocal plover]

awesome :P

[tardy atlas]

Is it possible to make the replit bot work 24/7?

[vocal plover]

it is possible (variety of methods can be found online) but if at all possible I'd highly recommend not using it since it is both underpowered and uses a few shared IP addresses across its hosts which means a hight chance of your bot being banned or ratelimited because of other people's badly behaving bots

[cold sonnet]

yes, until it gets banned

[honest vessel]

!vps

[slim ibex]

yes but don't

[tardy atlas]

What hosting to use?

@vocal plover

[vocal plover]

I have my own server that I put in a datacenter so I'm probably not the best role model here , but I'd recommend looking at the free tiers of AWS, Google Cloud, and Azure, and possibly Linode

[tardy atlas]

if that the full traceback? it looks like you've closed a file and then tried to read/write to it

[terse blade]

HEHH

how could i have closed a file

[slim ibex]

if you used a context manager, it closes the file after exiting the scope of the manager

[terse blade]

What like atom?

[slim ibex]

??

[terse blade]

whats a context manager?

[slim ibex]

how do you open youtr file

[terse blade]

idle python?

[slim ibex]

in code...

[terse blade]

F5?

[slate swan]

uij

mi,klæ

[slim ibex]

what do you write in code to open your file

[terse blade]

it dosent open it

it just dumps and takes stuff into it and from it

[slim ibex]

yeah the file has to be opened to do shit with it...

[terse blade]

how?

[hoary cargo]

[slim ibex]

ares lol

[hoary cargo]

🗿

[terse blade]

how.

[hoary cargo]

i assume you are new to python, then you might check resources

[terse blade]

what?

[slate swan]

Hello, im new to python. Anyone know hy this is giving errors?

i installed the required stuff, the dev from github told me to

[slim ibex]

prolly not installed

[hoary cargo]

you try to write data in a file. you need to open the file first, then write what you want and close the file. it's simple and logic as that.

[slim ibex]

and what are you doing with flask

[slate swan]

i installed em all from cmd

[slim ibex]

restart vscode

[terse blade]

how
do
i
open
the
file

[slate swan]

already did

[hoary cargo]

how
did
you
write
in
the
file?

Or tried, anyway

[slim ibex]

choose an interpreter again

[slate swan]

if i install again, it just says requirement already satisfied

[slim ibex]

CTRL+SHIFT+P and type python, then select interpreter

[terse blade]

        user_data = json.load(USERDATA)```

[slim ibex]

that is a context manager

outside the scope of that statement, you can no longer so stuff with the file (although the variable isn't destroyed)

[slate swan]

Is ctx.author.edit a thing?

[vocal plover]

you named your variable user_data, USER_DATA is the file object

[terse blade]

wym

[vocal plover]

USER_DATA is a file object created by open(), it is not the dictionary you created using the data from that file

[terse blade]

so i do USER_DATA not user_data

[vocal plover]

That's what you're doing currently

you need to use user_data[user.id] = ... instead

[cerulean elbow]

Are you using slash commands?

[cerulean elbow]

Can this be used, to send api data to a json file?

[slate swan]

wdym slash commands

[modest plover]

i asked in a help channel but got nothing. how do i make a colour info command using pillow?

import disnake
from disnake.ext import commands

            title = hex,
        colour = f"")

[terse blade]

        json.dump(USERDATA, f)```
this can

[cerulean elbow]

I tried something like that before, but got data is not defined

[terse blade]

eh

hold on

[cerulean elbow]

/

[slate swan]

oh yeah

bot uses that for commands

@commands.has_permissions(administrator=True)
async def nick(ctx, member: discord.Member = None,  *, nick,):
 if member == None:
    await ctx.author.edit(nick=nick)
    embed = discord.Embed(title="", description=f'**Name for {ctx.author.mention} has been changed!**', colour=0x992d22)
    await ctx.send(embed=embed)
 else:
     await member.edit(nick=nick)
     embed = discord.Embed(title="", description=f'**Name for {member.mention} has been changed!**', colour=0x992d22)
     await ctx.send(embed=embed)```

**Why does this command only work if the user pings a other guy but if he doesnt ping someone it doesnt change his nick name?** it doesnt give me a error

[cerulean elbow]

Ok, what was the prob again?

[slate swan]

the imports

they are giving me errors

I even did these installs pip install twilio pip3 install discord pip install -U discord-py-interactions

[terse blade]

what is json docs

[cerulean elbow]

Does it say requirement already satisfied?

[slate swan]

yup

on all of them

[cerulean elbow]

Api data, I want in a json file

[cerulean elbow]

Check All your code, you might have a copy somewhere

[slate swan]

like its imported several places or

[cerulean elbow]

What’s twilio?

[vocal plover]

A service that lets you make automated texts or phone calls

[slate swan]

my guy answered😂

[cerulean elbow]

What for?

[slate swan]

Just like textnow n stuff

automated messages

[cerulean elbow]

No commands?

[slate swan]

yeah there is commands, but twilio is for that stuff. U make a command, and trough twilio API, u can send SMS, make voice calls, TTS

etc.

twilio gives you your own private phone number

[cerulean elbow]

Sounds good, is it free/cheaper than 📱?

[slate swan]

theres is a trial im using, but im not sure how limited it is

these imports are just pissing me off, dosent make any sense

[cerulean elbow]

Start # some off, see what happens 🤔

[slate swan]

that just causes more errors in the code

[cerulean elbow]

Ok, forget I said it 🤣🙈

[slate swan]

its like, the code know im using the library, but detetcs it as not installed

[cerulean elbow]

Type python main/bot.py in console, see what it says

[slate swan]

  File "C:\Users\frede\Desktop\OTP-Bot-main\bot.py", line 67
    url=f{ngrok}'/voice',

It might of been to make something simpler first in 🐍 🤔

[magic ore]

No its not like that. Its a bot i found from github, i just need to have up and running, not continue on it. It just have these erros which im stuck with

ah shit i wish this would work show that u can import lib n check help file aka "man in linux"

[terse blade]

ok so

[honest vessel]

'Clear' object has no attribute 'reply'

wtf

oh u forgot close it )

[flat solstice]

Can I take this looppy for entry in initial_extensions: cog = entry.strip('"').split('.')[1] Choice(name=cog.title(), value=entry), cogs.append(choice)and turn it into a concatenated(?) loop like thispy cogs = [cog.strip('"').split('.')[1] for cog in initial_extensions]and if so does someone mind telling me how bc I'm struggling to wrap my head around it but my brains telling it could be this,py cogs = [Choice(name=cog.strip('"').split('.')[1].title(),value=cog) for cog in initial_extensions]

[honest vessel]

@dusk karma

[tidal hawk]

I used set_image for embed but some images still appear outside the embed

May the image size be the cause?

[dusk karma]

oh ok

[flat solstice]

are you adding any file or files into the send? I've never heard of file size causing images to not send as embeds

what are you trying to do, detect if 'discord.gg' is in a message's contents?

so what's the problem with it atm, producing any errors or just not firing? if your trying to pick up a mention remove the ! from the mention as it won't be detecting that as a proper mention

[cerulean elbow]

How?

[flat solstice]

elif client.mention in message.content:```try this

[cold sonnet]

client.user

or

[cerulean elbow]

Bot.user

[cold sonnet]

if client.user.mentioned_in(message.content):

which is idk why

oh I know, this also triggers on everyone pings

[slate swan]

How would I get this to work py @client.event async def on_message(message): if message.channel.id == 942045216658051072: await message.add_reaction("🐒") . await message.add_reaction("😉") await client.process_commands(message)

why is message not defined?

[slate swan]

show your params

[terse blade]

        await update_Data(users, message.author)```

[cerulean elbow]

i can help with that dm pls

[slate swan]

remove the period and the process coro should be outside of the if statement or use listen which you wouldnt need to process it

[slate swan]

why bruh

[terse blade]

i sent

[slate swan]

your command params

[terse blade]

isnt a command

[slate swan]

the function params*

[terse blade]

@bot.event
async def on_message(member):

[slate swan]

change member to message so message will be the param of the function its basic oop

[cerulean elbow]

i can also help with that 👍

[slate swan]

solve it

[haughty quartz]

how can i edit a message with tasks.loop ?

@tasks.loop(seconds=5)
async def idk(ctx):
    await ctx.message.edit(content="foo")
@bot.command()
async def test(ctx):
    await ctx.send("hey")
    idk.start()

that's my take

[lusty sky]

Anyone know why my clear message command wont work?

client = commands.Bot(command_prefix='?')

@client.command()

As the error message says, you're missing an argument in the function being called, you need to provide a value to exp

[slate swan]

!d discord.abc.Messageable.fetch_message

[unkempt canyon]

discord.abc.Messageable.fetch\_message

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

Retrieves a single [`Message`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/api.html#discord.Message "discord.Message") from the destination.

[terse blade]

it has a value

[vocal plover]

Evidently not

[terse blade]

exp = (randint(10,50))

can i not use this as a value?

[vocal plover]

You need to provide it as a function argument, setting it as a variable won't work

[slate swan]

and why are you making it a tuple lol

[terse blade]

wym tuple?

[vocal plover]

that's not a tuple, since it's just wrapped in parentheses as a single object without a comma the parentheses are ignored

they are, however, unnecessary

[slate swan]

ah right i forgot python interprets parenthesis like that lol

[terse blade]

How do I do this I was jus taught the variable

[vocal plover]

it's pretty confusing tbh, such a change in behaviour between almost identical source

[vocal plover]

your level_up() function should be called as level_up(exp)

[haughty quartz]

Ty!

[slate swan]

ikr it really does confuse sometimes lol

[vocal plover]

that way you're passing the value of exp into the function

[terse blade]

Ahh

[slate swan]

its confusing but its handy and can be understood well sometimes

[vocal plover]

indeed

[slate swan]

let me show a good example

im so confused

[slate swan]

message is an int

[terse blade]

Yh it's ment to be

[haughty quartz]

i get 403 forbidden, may i ask what permission it takes?

[slate swan]

message should be a message obj

[terse blade]

So I convert int to an str?

[haughty quartz]

no

[slate swan]

bro

[terse blade]

I'm so dumb allow it 😭

!d discord.on_message

[unkempt canyon]

discord.on\_message

discord.on_message(message)```
Called when a [`Message`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/api.html#discord.Message "discord.Message") is created and sent.

This requires [`Intents.messages`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/api.html#discord.Intents.messages "discord.Intents.messages") to be enabled.

Warning

Your bot’s own messages and private messages are sent through this event. This can lead cases of ‘recursion’ depending on how your bot was programmed. If you want the bot to not reply to itself, consider checking the user IDs. Note that [`Bot`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.Bot "discord.ext.commands.Bot") does not have this problem.

[slate swan]

message is an instance of the Message obj

[haughty quartz]

yep ik but what discord permission is that (if u know which one it is)

[slate swan]

async def on_message(message: Message) -> None:

with annotations

[slate swan]

not sure what perms the endpoint requires tbh

[haughty quartz]

aight

[slate swan]

maybe it cant see the channel idk

[haughty quartz]

Cannot edit a message authored by another user can't the bot edit its own messages

[slate swan]

it can, maybe you tried to edit a message that wasnt the bots

[haughty quartz]

nah it was

double checked

and tried again

[slate swan]

why else would it raise the error then? im not sure why it would raise that error for any other reason

[haughty quartz]

yeah well same

no idea

[slate swan]

¯_(ツ)_/¯

[haughty quartz]

@slate swan u need that helper role lmfao i always see u in this chat when asking for help

[slate swan]

haha nah theres people who help more then me like andy or tyler or panda or hunter allot of people who deserve it more which also thought me

[narrow grail]

ctx.message.author.voice.voice_channel```  "VoiceState" object has no attribute 'voice_channel'. How to fix it?

[slate swan]

well the VoiceState class doesnt have that attr hence why the error was raised

[narrow grail]

so what can I do that the bot joins my voice channel?

[slate swan]

sorry i cant help much with that ive never gone to the voice category

[narrow grail]

np

[slate swan]

how can you do a discord dropdown menu in a cog?

hm im gonna try it

[slate swan]

ah no

no need just make the class outside of it and then just use the class lol

[quaint epoch]

if the author is not connected to a vc this will occur, ctx.message.author.voice would be None in that case, so just run a check

[slate swan]

that would just raise a nontype error

which would say NoneType doesnt have such an attr

[narrow grail]

i was connected

[slate swan]

wym

[slate swan]

^

like of what

pardon?

outside from what?

of the cog

alrdy tried that but theres a few problems with my on message

show

    raise discord.ClientException(f'Callback for {self.name} command is missing "ctx" parameter.')
discord.errors.ClientException: Callback for menu command is missing "ctx" parameter.

@client.event
async def on_message(message):

        else:
            client.command_prefix = result["prefix"]
            await client.process_commands(message)

[slate swan]

1. its your menu command
2. use a db and get_prefix
3. just use listen and no need for the same 2 coros in the if statement just have it outside so it will always execute or just use listen as said lol

yeah im alrdy using a db

mongodb

!d discord.ext.commands.Bot.get_prefix

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ext.commands.Bot.get\_prefix

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

Retrieves the prefix the bot is listening to with the message as a context.

[slate swan]

use this then ^

i got the get_prefix function

but i didnt use it but ima do it now

[slate swan]

how can i get cooldown for a command? and then reset it. for example bucket.reset

btw im using cooldown Mapping with @commands.check

[slate swan]

wdym

[slate swan]

i created a custom cooldown

ah

and idk how to reset it inside the command

how are you setting the cooldown

hol on

lemmee show u wut it loosk like

class is_premium:
  def __init__(self, rate, per, rate1, per1, guilds: list):
    self.bucket_type = commands.BucketType.guild
    self.cooldown = commands.CooldownMapping.from_cooldown(rate, per, self.bucket_type)
    self.premium_cooldown = commands.CooldownMapping.from_cooldown(rate1, per1, self.bucket_type) 
    self.guilds = guilds
    
  def __call__(self, inter: disnake.Interaction):
    key = inter.guild_id
    if key in self.guilds:
      bucket = self.premium_cooldown.get_bucket(inter)
    else:
      bucket = self.cooldown.get_bucket(inter)
      
    retry_after = bucket.update_rate_limit()
    if retry_after:
      raise commands.CommandOnCooldown(bucket, retry_after, self.bucket_type)
  
    return True```

what exactly are you trying to do? get the commands cooldown and then reset it?

[slate swan]

ye im trying to do that

[flat solstice]

If I declare a embed as py embed = discord.Embed(timestamp=datetime.datetime.now())can I then do py embed.title("A super cool title") embed.description("A cool description") embed.colour(discord.Colour.green())later on in the code without needing to set a new embed var

[slate swan]

yeah you can

[flat solstice]

oh cool, didn't know that until recently when I saw another bot doing it, this is going to make making embeds so much quicker

[slate swan]

well im not sure im not familiar with the methods of cooldown lol

[slate swan]

yeah its just setting the classes kwargs on an instance of the class

[slate swan]

me neither

[manic wing]

well

you wouldnt call it

its an str that you set, not call

embed.description: str = …

[slate swan]

ah yeah thats right ^

[flat solstice]

okay thanks for the help

[flat solstice]

so this?py embed.title=("__Load Error__")or do I drop the ( )?

[manic wing]

putting () around an str does nothing

only when you add a trailing comma does it tupilize

[flat solstice]

👍

[rocky trench]

Nobody needs help? Kinda dead here

[slate swan]

I need some help here.

[slate swan]

help me with homework

i need some help with adding this, if you type a wrong word that isnt on the code list, my bot says invalid word please try again

!d discord.ext.commands.cooldown

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ext.commands.cooldown

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

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

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

A command can only have a single cooldown.

[slate swan]

what are you trying to do exactly?

[slate swan]

wrong code mb

[slate swan]

https://paste.pythondiscord.com/egelinocak

if you write senw, that isnt on in my code so my bot will say , Invalid please try again

[slate swan]

1. just check if the message is in a list
2. use listen

[slate swan]

could you explain a bit better

[slate swan]

on message just check if the content of the message is in a list with an if statement and then just send "ok" and then use else to print "Invalid please try again"

[slate swan]

could i get an example

[slate swan]

if message.content.lower() in word_list:
    await message.channel.send("ok")
else:
    await message.channel.send("Invalid please try again")

something like this

[terse blade]

wym with annotations

[slate swan]

annotations by typehints and the return annotation

[terse blade]

im so lost

[slate swan]

name: str is a type hint which falls into annotations and () -> None is the return type annotation which just shows what the method will return

Have you learnt oop yet?

[terse blade]

no

[final iron]

That's why it makes no sense

[slate swan]

then you should learn some dpy is all about oop

[final iron]

This library is heavily based on oop

[rocky trench]

You split into a list, u can't split a list

[slate swan]

example of an attr error!

[echo wasp]

&enable welcome {member.mention} to a server!

[slate swan]

i ment the params of your function.

[sick birch]

That's probably why. You'll get stuck at really simple problems if you don't know OOP. This library is not a beginner's library, it involves many advanced topics and OOP is one of them. You could save yourself a lot of headache by learning some OOP first before attempting discord bots with discord.py

[rocky trench]

What was OOP again?

[slate swan]

object oriented programming

[echo wasp]

(self, ctx, arg)

[slate swan]

trust robin he has helper role

[rocky trench]

I mean I started with dpy before learning python basics 😅

[slate swan]

it would only take hello so make the arg a kwarg

[sick birch]

Many did but that's not necessarily good

[vocal plover]

Here's a great video on OOP: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZDa-Z5JzLYM

[rocky trench]

I learnt them all after, biggest regret of my life that I skipped over them

[slate swan]

COREY IS THE BEST

[rocky trench]

Basics are very important and with basics, it would've gone way faster

Been coding for 3 years now

[slate swan]

corey is the best on tutorials no joke

[slate swan]

1year

[vocal plover]

mine are pretty good too

[echo wasp]

example?

[rocky trench]

Yeah and I still suck at some things

[slate swan]

yeah they are but you dont do yt since 10months ago

[slate swan]

same

[slate swan]

self, ctx, *, arg

[vocal plover]

I keep meaning to do more and then ending up really depressed and don't want to do them

[rocky trench]

Classes and subclasses is the things I don't get, like why do you use them

[slate swan]

so much talent bro just go for it

[echo wasp]

ok thank you

[slate swan]

i can relate

[slate swan]

i dont get generics yet because im too lazy to read the long paragraph

[rocky trench]

What are generics?🤣 also we should move to dm cuz we are in a help channel

[manic wing]

you have been coding for 3 years and dont see the point of subclassing and classes?

Never used them

[slate swan]

all caeden thinks about is classes

[terse blade]

because it dosent mention define

[manic wing]

every single thing in python is a class

[slate swan]

i mean classes are so good thoooo so i stand by him

[rocky trench]

If u didn't define it, what did u expect

[manic wing]

x = "hi" is an object of class str

[rocky trench]

God

bertie

[slate swan]

its basic py

[terse blade]

ty for not helping

[rocky trench]

Now what should I replace 'global' with?

[slate swan]

[manic wing]

self

[rocky trench]

I don't see what you're trying to do

[manic wing]

yw babe xx

[rocky trench]

I use self in cogs, no worries

[slate swan]

async def init

[terse blade]

I'm trying to make it so when they type they get xp then after 500 xp they level up and it gets put into a .json database

[sick birch]

That's not a database

[rocky trench]

I'm not gonna help with json

[terse blade]

its a temp one

[slate swan]

still not a db

[terse blade]

its a temp one

[slate swan]

a database is ment to store data unlike json

[flat solstice]

s it possible to use self in a deco? I have this deco in which I want to use selfpy @app_commands.choices(cogs=[Choice(name=cog.split('.')[1].title(),value=cog) for cog in self.bot.initial_extensions])

[rocky trench]

Waste of time

Just move to sql if u want a good quality database

[sick birch]

Unfortunately no you can't

[terse blade]

ok so if i do mongo db instead you can help

[flat solstice]

damm that's annoying

[slate swan]

i use sql

[terse blade]

sql is sad

[flat solstice]

okay next question, is importing my bot var into a cog file a bad idea / bad practice (for use in a deco)py from main import bot

[manic wing]

sick

the power of classes

[rocky trench]

Sql isn't hard, just learn query's

[slate swan]

yup

[rocky trench]

[terse blade]

its old.

[slate swan]

why would you need to import it

[slate swan]

you do know its a lan for queries right?

[terse blade]

its old

[slate swan]

shit posting rn

[flat solstice]

to use a property of my bot in a deco

[terse blade]

still old

[slate swan]

you really dont know what youre talking about lmfao

[terse blade]

yes i dont have a pissing clue

[full lily]

being a pilot isn't hard. Just fly the plane

[rocky trench]

^^

[full lily]

Do you see the issue with that statement?

[slate swan]

gta flash backs

[rocky trench]

I don't see what that has to do with my answer... if you know how to use query's in sqlite, u know how to control it

[flat solstice]

so is it a bad idea? I assume it's bad practice but will it have any knock on effects? would I avoid any potential knock on effects by just importing that the specific attribute I need from the bot var?

[rocky trench]

U don't need a bot var in cogs

U just need ur commands from discord.ext

[slate swan]

nah it wouldnt effect anything

[slim ibex]

What’s going on

[slate swan]

i think he needs a value from a bot var from a cog

[slate swan]

idk whats going on with you binds😳

[rocky trench]

That way

[slate swan]

Code only nicks the author and ignores if a user was mentioned, i tried switching it to if member is None: did the same thing, please tell me what i did wrong

[rocky trench]

U did if member is true

[flat solstice]

I'm trying to use a bot var property in a deco, but deco's don't have self

[rocky trench]

Not if member is None

[slate swan]

just do member = member or ctx.author

so no checking for it

[slim ibex]

nm

[rocky trench]

None & not None ≠ True & False

[slate swan]

the heck is that

[rocky trench]

If member is None isn't the same as if member is False

Or am I wrong?

[slate swan]

no youre right

theyre both different objs

[rocky trench]

I tried to explain that, since he used if member

[slate swan]

but None is falsy

but is compares objs so it wouldnt be the same

[rocky trench]

Yeah, I explained it bad again

[leaden jasper]

sql syntax error

What is ?

Oh I think it's %s

[slate swan]

._.

[slow fog]

whats that

[terse blade]

how to use slash commands with d.py?

[slate swan]

i think its $#

🤔

[slate swan]

main?

i suppose yes

[slow fog]

this is how you store a string into a variable in C

[terse blade]

you can cause my friend does but hes off

[slate swan]

bro what

[leaden jasper]

https://www.psycopg.org/psycopg3/docs/basic/params.html

[terse blade]

?

[slate swan]

i ment dpy 2.0

[terse blade]

wait

i mean discord.py

[slow fog]

oh

[slate swan]

yes? main/2.0 of dpy?

[leaden jasper]

psycopg2 wants you to do it that way

[terse blade]

I guess?

[slow fog]

oh

[flat solstice]

random question, is there a particular codeblock format that is good as displaying tracebacks?

[slate swan]

do print(discord.__version__)

[slow fog]

its like

int var
("%s",var)
lol

[slate swan]

probably a default one

[terse blade]

1.7.3

[leaden jasper]

hey looking at the docs, pscyopg3 is out why dont u use that?

[slate swan]

then no 1.7.3 doesnt have slash commands

[terse blade]

how to update it?

[slate swan]

you clone main

[terse blade]

so copy and paste it?

[leaden jasper]

Use %s btw

[pliant gulch]

You could clone it, but it's a lot easier to pip install git+repo

[slate swan]

https://github.com/Rapptz/discord.py its in the readme

[slate swan]

okay

[flat solstice]

do you have a lit of them you can link me to, I also forget what they are bc the only ones I use are py and occasionally json

[slate swan]

just like py codeblocks but just remove the py

[flat solstice]

oh okay, thought you meant a standard codeblock lang, not the literal default codeblock

[terse blade]

where

[pliant gulch]

discord supports most of the syntax higlighting shown in hightlight.js

[terse blade]

so what do i type

[sick birch]

python3 -m pip install git+repo_url_here

[terse blade]

whats repo?

[slow fog]

lol

[terse blade]

allow it 😭

[pliant gulch]

The github repo link

[terse blade]

python3 -m pip install git+https://github.com/Rapptz/discord.py

so this?

[pliant gulch]

Correct

After you install from here, you should probably uninstall your old version of discord.py

[terse blade]

[terse blade]

WHAT???

please speak some english

[slate swan]

:l

[terse blade]

can u not ping me

[pliant gulch]

Uh... I am speaking english

Just install git, perhaps do a reboot to ensure it's on PATH

[slate swan]

didnt mean to that

[pliant gulch]

then run the command again

[terse blade]

install git?

[pliant gulch]

Yes

[terse blade]

is that the command?

[slate swan]

^

[pliant gulch]

No

[terse blade]

instal

[pliant gulch]

Yes

[terse blade]

install https://git-scm.com/

[pliant gulch]

Yes...

[terse blade]

thats the command?

[pliant gulch]

No, you go to the website

And isntall git, the program

[terse blade]

and download it?

so download it

[pliant gulch]

Yes

[terse blade]

well its funny how i downloaded it and it still didnt work

[pliant gulch]

[slate swan]

hi how can i get avatar url from bot? client.user.avatar_url doesnt work

[sick birch]

If you're on 2.0 it's .avatar.url

[slate swan]

im on discordpy 1.7.3

can i download discordpy 2.0 trough git?

[sick birch]

I see, how does it "not work" by the way?

[slate swan]

@client.event
async def on_message(message):
    if message.channel.id == 942045216658051072:            
        await message.add_reaction(":monkey:953747076917887077")
        await client.process_commands(message)``` can someone explain why this says unknown emoji? and whenever I try use other commands it doesn’t work ?

[terse blade]

so how do i do a slash command now?

[slate swan]

AttributeError: 'ClientUser' object has no attribute 'avatar_url'

this is the output

i have no idea why this doesnt work

[slate swan]

type a \ and then put a emoji it will give you the full string

[sick birch]

Yeah that's not right

[slate swan]

!keka

just type \ and a emoji

then put that text on the message.add_reaction

Okay but how would I fix it from stopping my other cmds working

[pliant gulch]

Your processing commands only when in channel corresponding to 942045216658051072. To make all commands work for all channels you'd un-indent await client.process_commands(message) by one level

[slate swan]

no I want it so it only auto reacts in that channel however all my other commands stop working

[slate swan]

why?

[slate swan]

await client.process_commands(message)

[slate swan]

Yh I do that and it does this look

[pliant gulch]

Yea, I just told you how to fix it

[slate swan]

\🐒

It does that ?

use emojis from this srv

[slate swan]

It’s the default monkey emoji

[terse blade]

HOW TO DO A SLASH COMMAND

[slate swan]

just copy that and paste it to ur program

[slate swan]

it does have an attribute av url tho

https://tenor.com/view/angry-andre-sitolini-engetic-butthurt-gif-14985012

[sick birch]

That's what I'm thinking

[slate swan]

i think i now why my bot has a default pfp

[sick birch]

I don't think that's the issue

[slate swan]

Well idk bc out of nowhere I just got a big error saying discord has banned me from accessing their website on my host platform 🤨

[sick birch]

Try it for yourself

member.avatar_url maybe?

see if it works on non bots

[slate swan]

yeah right it shouldnt be the issue

[slate swan]

to many api calls?

[slate swan]

okay

just wait a few minutes

okay

[terse blade]

HOW TO DO A SLASH COMMAND

[slate swan]

it doesnt work for me too

[slate swan]

what doesnt work

avatar_url

send code

[sick birch]

What's your host platform?

[terse blade]

HOW TO DO A SLASH COMMAND

[sick birch]

Discord.py or what fork?

[slate swan]

@client.command()

    await ctx.send(ctx.author.avatar_url)

just tried to see if it displays my av but it doesnt work

async def avatar(ctx, member: discord.member):
    test = member.avatar_url

[sick birch]

Same error?

[terse blade]

Discord.py cause I dislike any other

[slate swan]

it works with .url tho

[sick birch]

There should be examples on the gist https://gist.github.com/Rapptz/c4324f17a80c94776832430007ad40e6

[slate swan]

like with avatar.url

but my discordpy version is 1.7.3

[terse blade]

Didn't find any

[pliant gulch]

Can you verify by printing discord.__version__?

[echo wasp]

is talk about pymongo allowed here?

[slate swan]

sure

[sick birch]

No?

[slate swan]

a private thing

[sick birch]

I'm finding plenty

[sick birch]

Hm, people use replit which tends to do that alot. Just wanted to make sure you weren't on replit

[terse blade]

I'm blind asf 🤦‍♀️

[slate swan]

No 😂

im on 2.0.0b5

i think because of pycord

[terse blade]

Why don't people make it via atom then host layer

[slate swan]

game.creavite it’s basically a vps

[sick birch]

Then it's .avatar.url

[slate swan]

yeah

[pliant gulch]

Kek

[sick birch]

Earlier you said 1.7.3 so I thought something was really broken

[slate swan]

lol i typed pip list and check my discord.py version and it said 1.7.3

[pliant gulch]

Probably because you werent looking at the pycord version

[slate swan]

yeah i forgot that i had pycord installed

[slate swan]

yeah

[terse blade]

can i have a link?

help me pls

[slate swan]

alr fixed but ty

[slate swan]

ok

[pliant gulch]

avatar_url is an Asset object, you need to cast it to str to get the actual cdn url

[slate swan]

this works fine ig?

[hot plaza]

\u001b[0;36mHi

[slim ibex]

🗿

[hot plaza]

\u001b[0;40m\u001b[1;32mThat's some cool formatted text right?
or
\u001b[1;40;32mThat's some cool formatted text right?

doesn't work anymore

[pliant gulch]

u001b has to be the actual character

[slate swan]

type this on the first line then it will work

[hot plaza]

oh

[slate swan]

import os
os.system('cls')

[pliant gulch]

[1;32mThat's some cool formatted text right?

[hot plaza]

what this do

[pliant gulch]

Low effort troll

[slate swan]

it cleans the screen and debugs that problem

[hot plaza]

\u001b[1;32mThat's some cool formatted text right?

[pliant gulch]

Again

[slate swan]

if that text is supposued to be with color or have a time stamp

then cls will work

[pliant gulch]

Even the message you referenced talks about this

The \u001b is the unicode for ESCAPE/ESC, see http://www.unicode-symbol.com/u/001B.html. If you want to use it yourself without bots, then you need to copy paste the character from the website.

[pliant gulch]

What's clearing the terminal supposed to do here? That isn't gonna fix anything

[slate swan]

is the text suppoused to have color or some nice format?

anwser

[pliant gulch]

It's an ANSI escape sequence...

Clearing the terminal is totally irrelevant to the current issue

They are using \u001b, not the ACTUAL unicode character

[slate swan]

oh i thought you guys were talking about something else

[pliant gulch]

In order to use ANSI escape sequence they need the REAL character

[hot plaza]

ok thanks

[slate swan]

does this happen when you run the program or do you compile it to an exe?

i had the same issue it wasn't printing the fromated text cls fixed it

it was priting the exact same but with different characters

[slate swan]

can i have a message handler inside main.py and also another message handler inside cogs?

or no pls don't copy tutorials

[supple thorn]

Nikit

[left crater]

?

[left crater]

i didn't know where to start

[slim ibex]

docs exist

[left crater]

ye

but do you know whats wrong?

[slim ibex]

you should do your queries on one line

db.execute("UPDATE main SET channel_id = ? WHERE guild_id = ?", (channel.id, ctx.guild.id,))

[hushed galleon]

i dont think there's anything wrong with using variables

[slim ibex]

and the issue is that you added an extra space after sql before the comma

(thats what the traceback makes it seem like)

[hushed galleon]

no there shouldnt be a comma there in the first place

[slim ibex]

clutters code up and takes more lines. its less readable imo

[sick birch]

If you use a listener you can have as many as you want

[slim ibex]

it could be because sql is a tuple. not sure though

[hushed galleon]

INSERT INTO main(guild_id, channel_id), VALUES(?,?) the comma after channel_id isnt part of the syntax

[left crater]

it still gives me an error

[slim ibex]

the sql is generally a string, not a tuple

the arguments passed to the placeholders is a tuple

[slim ibex]

oh didn't even see that one

[hushed galleon]

its not actually a tuple, parentheses with no comma inside just acts the same as parentheses in order of operations

[slim ibex]

@left crater this is a syntax error

[slate swan]

python interprets it like it wasnt their its just as said it just sets an order of each operation

[slim ibex]

good to know

[left crater]

it works i just removed the comma

ight thanks

[hushed galleon]

you should be using an async lib for sqlite though

[slim ibex]

^

[left crater]

which one?

[slim ibex]

!pip asqlite

[unkempt canyon]

[slate swan]

is there a way to reset a mapping cooldown

commands.CooldownMapping

[hushed galleon]

are you trying to reset all cooldowns the mapping has, or just one?

if its just one you should preferably use Command.reset_cooldown(ctx), where the command can also come from ctx.command
to reset the entire mapping you'd need to go through the _cache and call .reset() each Cooldown object

[terse blade]

WHATS THE DOCSSSSSS

[hushed galleon]

!d discord.TextChannel.send

[unkempt canyon]

discord.TextChannel.send

await send(content=None, *, tts=False, embed=None, embeds=None, file=None, files=None, stickers=None, delete_after=None, nonce=None, allowed_mentions=None, reference=None, ...)```
This function is a [*coroutine*](https://docs.python.org/3/library/asyncio-task.html#coroutine).

Sends a message to the destination with the content given.

The content must be a type that can convert to a string through `str(content)`. If the content is set to `None` (the default), then the `embed` parameter must be provided.

To upload a single file, the `file` parameter should be used with a single [`File`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/api.html#discord.File "discord.File") object. To upload multiple files, the `files` parameter should be used with a [`list`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/stdtypes.html#list "(in Python v3.10)") of [`File`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/api.html#discord.File "discord.File") objects. **Specifying both parameters will lead to an exception**.

To upload a single embed, the `embed` parameter should be used with a single [`Embed`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/api.html#discord.Embed "discord.Embed") object. To upload multiple embeds, the `embeds` parameter should be used with a [`list`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/stdtypes.html#list "(in Python v3.10)") of [`Embed`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/api.html#discord.Embed "discord.Embed") objects. **Specifying both parameters will lead to an exception**.

[hushed galleon]

the embed parameter is in there

[terse blade]

ye butr

I need an example of a whole embed

[hushed galleon]

like which part each parameter corresponds to?

[slate swan]

!d discord.Embed

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Embed

class discord.Embed(*, colour=None, color=None, title=None, type='rich', url=None, description=None, 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.

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.

Changed in version 2.0: `Embed.Empty` has been removed in favour of `None`.

[slate swan]

it explains itself lol

[tawny sorrel]

My friend has mod and he can kick an admin, how do I fix that in python discord.py

[worldly bane]

what's your code?

[slate swan]

make an ìf statement to check the user's guild perms (if they have permissions) the bot is going to pass it

i suppose get role id for the higher up roles and disallow the command to pass through if the person has a lower rank attempting to kick admin and whatnot.. or you can do it based on permissions i believe so

[slate swan]

☝️

[tawny sorrel]

Idk how to use top_role

[worldly bane]

this

[tawny sorrel]

What do I write after the if

[slate swan]

if member.guild_permissions.administrator: #it checks if the member has administrator permissions
  await ctx.send("You cannot ban mod/admin")```

!d discord.Member.guild_permissions

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Member.guild\_permissions

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

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

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

[worldly bane]

if user.top_role < ctx.author.top_role:
  #ban
else:
  #ignore

this can work if both has ban perms or so

[slate swan]

thats a great one doe

[slate swan]

ye

[slate swan]

great representation 👍

[hushed galleon]

note that those of equal roles arent normally able to ban each other

[worldly bane]

lemme fix that

[hushed galleon]

i told them the same thing in #help-chili

[slate swan]

is there a way to reset a mapping cooldown

[hushed galleon]

@slate swan

[slate swan]

i've been asking this question for like 2 days

[slate swan]

the problem is, it gives me an error

[hushed galleon]

the traceback and the code being...?

[slate swan]

'test' object has no attribute '_buckets'

[hushed galleon]

that error looks like you made your own custom class?

[slate swan]

ye :P

[hushed galleon]

well then where's the cooldown mapping

[slate swan]

in the custom cooldown 😏

custom buckets

basically wut i wanted to try is

yoy

class is_premium:
  def __init__(self, rate, per, rate1, per1, guilds: list):
    self.bucket_type = commands.BucketType.guild
    self.cooldown = commands.CooldownMapping(commands.Cooldown(rate, per), self.bucket_type)
    self.premium_cooldown = commands.CooldownMapping.from_cooldown(rate1, per1, self.bucket_type) 
    self.guilds = guilds
    
  def __call__(self, inter: disnake.Interaction):
    key = inter.guild_id
    if key in self.guilds:
      bucket = self.premium_cooldown.get_bucket(inter)
      
    else:
      bucket = self.cooldown.get_bucket(inter)
    
    bucket.reset
  
    retry_after = bucket.update_rate_limit()
    if retry_after:
      raise commands.CommandOnCooldown(bucket, retry_after, self.bucket_type)
  
    return True``` i've tried `bucket.reset` to see if it reset the cooldown but

[slate swan]

mmm

[hushed galleon]

oh you're on disnake, that should have the dynamic_cooldown decorator forked from 2.0

!d disnake.ext.commands.dynamic_cooldown

[unkempt canyon]

disnake.ext.commands.dynamic\_cooldown

@disnake.ext.commands.dynamic_cooldown(cooldown, type=BucketType.default)```
A decorator that adds a dynamic cooldown to a [`Command`](https://docs.disnake.dev/en/latest/ext/commands/api.html#disnake.ext.commands.Command "disnake.ext.commands.Command")

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

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

If a cooldown is triggered, then [`CommandOnCooldown`](https://docs.disnake.dev/en/latest/ext/commands/api.html#disnake.ext.commands.CommandOnCooldown "disnake.ext.commands.CommandOnCooldown") is triggered in [`on_command_error()`](https://docs.disnake.dev/en/latest/ext/commands/api.html#disnake.disnake.ext.commands.on_command_error "disnake.disnake.ext.commands.on_command_error") and the local error handler.

A command can only have a single cooldown.

New in version 2.0.

[hushed galleon]

you can return whatever Cooldown object you like based on the message

[slate swan]

ion think i'll be able to make a special cooldown for special ppl with this?

[hushed galleon]

thats exactly what dynamic_cooldown is for

[lusty sky]

Can someone explain why my change nick command doesn't change someones entire name if they put a space in it somewhere

@client.command(pass_content=True)
async def changenick(ctx, member: discord.Member, nick):
    await member.edit(nick=nick)
    await ctx.send(f'Nickname changed for{member.mention}')```

[slate swan]

gimme an example i"ve never used that

[hoary cargo]

Btw can delete_message_days be set to other values than the built-in? ( None, 1 day, 7 days) like delete the messages from the past 3 days

[pliant gulch]

If this is for PUT/guilds/{guild.id}/bans/{user.id} yes, you can do 0-7

[hushed galleon]

def length_cooldown(message):
    """The longer a message is, the longer the cooldown"""
    return commands.Cooldown(
        rate=1,
        per=len(message.content)
    )

@bot.command()
@commands.dynamic_cooldown(length_cooldown, discord.BucketType.member)
async def my_command(ctx):
    ...```

[slate swan]

oh tnx

[terse blade]

  userlvl = users[f'{ctx.author.id}']['level']
  embed = discord.Embed(
  description={
    f'Your rank is:{userlvl}'
    },
    author={
      'name':f'{ctx.author.name} Rank',
      'icon_url':f'ctx.author.avatar_url'
      },
    footer={
      'text':f'{experience}/500'
      }
  )```
whats wrong with this embed?

[hoary cargo]

exactly for that
I could test it, but it would take like 28 days

[pliant gulch]

Well, you can do 0-7 days

The offical documentation says so

[terse blade]

so..

[slate swan]

'test' object has no attribute '_buckets' it gives dis error LMAO

command.Command.reset_cooldown(ctx) @hushed galleon

[echo pivot]

Can someone tell me what a guild is? (is it a server? channel? or something completely different?)

[slate swan]

server

[echo pivot]

Thanks

[slate swan]

yw

!d discord.Guild

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Guild

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

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

x == y Checks if two guilds are equal.

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

hash(x) Returns the guild’s hash.

str(x) Returns the guild’s name.

[terse blade]

Why is my embed not working

[hushed galleon]

did you delete/comment out your broken code? also you need the actual command object to call reset_cooldown on

[terse blade]

HELLO

[slate swan]

yes i deleted the comment, lemme try

[terse blade]

HELLO

[hoary cargo]

Yeah just checked the github docs
I should check those more often, they quite useful

[pliant gulch]

👍

Where were you looking originally, discord.py docs?

[slate swan]

why is it all in dicts?

[terse blade]

wym

[pliant gulch]

Do they force specific days?

[slate swan]

well some of your kwargs have dicts while some have sets

[long wigeon]

any discord guru here?

[worldly bane]

wdym?

[long wigeon]

do you know anything about discord token generator?

or discord account creator?

[supple thorn]

If you want a discord account creator

Discord already does that

[hushed galleon]

or do you mean what a discord token is composed of

[supple thorn]

He wants to automatically make discord accounts

He wants a bunch of alts

[hushed galleon]

yeah of course

[supple thorn]

Maybe to sell or to use to raid a server

[echo pivot]

Quick question (hopefully). I have this command here, I want it to return if key or description is None. But instead it sends the first message (You must provide a key...) the proceeds to execute the second ctx.send() (You do not have permission...)
Anyone know the proper way to stop a command, like return would stop a function?

@commands.command(name='add-help')
async def add_help(self, ctx: commands.Context, key: str = None, *, description: str = None):
    if not key == None or not description == None:
        await ctx.send('You must provide a key and description when adding a help topic.\nUsage: `--add-help key description`')
        return
    await ctx.send('You do not have permission to create a new help topic.\nYour request will be forwarded to an administrator.')

[final iron]

return should be stopping the command as it is a function

[echo pivot]

that's what I though, but it doesn't work

[final iron]

You tried restarting your bot?

Maybe the code changes haven't applied

[echo pivot]

Yep, several times

I'll do it again 🤷‍♂️

oh

[supple thorn]

🗿

[echo pivot]

something weird is up, cause it still works when it's not running xD

(my remote is off too)

[supple thorn]

Remote?

Are you running the bot on a tv?

[echo pivot]

Remote (cloud)

[supple thorn]

Discord wonky sometimes

[echo pivot]

Ah, I had a random python instance running in the background.

So it was duplicating my command (but one was outdated and only had one response so it looked like I explained)

Classic instance of asking for help 30 seconds before I figure it out.

[worldly bane]

🗿

[sick birch]

It happens way more than you think. Reminds me of the time I was diagnosing an audio issue, unplugged my microphone but friend could still hear me. Figured out later it was my webcam mic.

[lusty sky]

What do I add to my code to make it check the person sending the command has permission?

@client.command()
async def kick(ctx, member : discord.Member, *, reason=None):
    await member.kick(reason=reason)
    await ctx.send(f"Sent to the hell fire{member.mention}!")```
