discord-bots

[inland shell]

bc i use replit...

[sick birch]

Uh yeah that's a problem

[inland shell]

.

[oblique laurel]

Replit is trash for bots

[sick birch]

Get rid of the "for bots" part

[oblique laurel]

Lol true

[supple thorn]

Yeah i did check the docs it's just that my brain thought intents were already enabled

[oblique laurel]

The only time you should use replit is

Absolutely never

[oblique laurel]

Alr, np

[gaunt ice]

agrees

[royal wind]

I'm gonna need help, but I'll wait if someone's still being helped

[slim ibex]

ask your question...

[supple thorn]

just ask

[royal wind]

I am using MongoDB for database. Each document will be a user's profile. It will have fields like user_xp, user_point, etc

But, not all users will have the same fields at the same time. If, say, they want to check their server points, they'd do $points. Then, it would check if the user has user_point field.

The problem is with the checking. This is my code so far, and it just won't work.

It would always end up with "you may only claim once a day"

I thought, if MongoDB do the lookup and finds nothing, it will simply return null. So I tried checking is None. It still doesn't work

[inner epoch]

Any1 knows how to use link buttons with persistent views?

[boreal ravine]

yes

[inner epoch]

Umm how?

[hushed galleon]

you just do...?

there shouldnt be anything special with combining url buttons and persistency

[boreal ravine]

make the view -> add the button -> make it persistent

[inner epoch]

There is am not able to

[inner epoch]

Ill send my code tell me how to do it

class help_class(disnake.ui.View):
    def __init__(self):
        super().__init__(timeout=None)

    disnake.ui.button(label="Abc",url="", custom_id="help:1")

    disnake.ui.button(label="Def",url="", custom_id="help:2")

[boreal ravine]

• use motor
• tl;dr?

[boreal ravine]

!d discord.ext.commands.Bot.add_view pass in the help_class here

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ext.commands.Bot.add\_view

add_view(view, *, message_id=None)```
Registers a [`View`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/interactions/api.html#discord.ui.View "discord.ui.View") for persistent listening.

This method should be used for when a view is comprised of components that last longer than the lifecycle of the program.

New in version 2.0.

[royal wind]

I need to know how to make it so that if there doesn't exist a matching document like this, then...

[inner epoch]

Ik abt the add_view class l

[inner epoch]

Am talking abt this code it aint working

[hushed galleon]

there's the link.py example on github which shows how to use the Button class for creating link buttons https://github.com/Rapptz/discord.py/blob/master/examples/views/link.py#L22-L32

[unkempt canyon]

examples/views/link.py lines 22 to 32

class Google(discord.ui.View):
    def __init__(self, query: str):
        super().__init__()
        # we need to quote the query string to make a valid url. Discord will raise an error if it isn't valid.
        query = quote_plus(query)
        url = f'https://www.google.com/search?q={query}'

        # Link buttons cannot be made with the decorator
        # Therefore we have to manually create one.
        # We add the quoted url to the button, and add the button to the view.
        self.add_item(discord.ui.Button(label='Click Here', url=url))```

[inner epoch]

Umm let me try that one

[boreal ravine]

do ```py
res = collection.find_one({"user_id": author_id})

if res is None:
...

[slate swan]

None*

[cerulean osprey]

With @commands.has_role how do I make it do something if they dont have the role?

[slate swan]

erorr handler

[boreal ravine]

That raises a commands.CheckFailure exception iiirc, just handle it inside your error handler (if you have one)

[cerulean osprey]

So Im assuming the error would be commands.MissingRole ?

[hushed galleon]

yup

[cerulean osprey]

Gotcha ty

[inner epoch]

@hushed galleon @boreal ravine Thanks for help got it working!

Btw the links button are already persistent no need to make them persistent

[royal wind]

It still does not work. It still ends up at "You may only claim reward once a day"

[boreal ravine]

Show updated code

[royal wind]

Ouch, there's exception raised

[slate swan]

res = collection.find_one() #fetch the user
if res:
    return await ctx.send("U have claimed your daily reward")
''' write your daily reward code and update the db '"```

[royal wind]

I need to check if some fields exist or not on the document we're looking too

[slate swan]

example_returned_from_db = [{'id': "12356654", 'extra': "value"}]

if extra in example_returned_from_db:
      return await ctx.send('extra is in the user')```

[inner epoch]

You asking me?

[boreal ravine]

Don't you do that when you insert the document

u dont need to check it lol

[boreal ravine]

No

[slate swan]

you can make more keys using the update_one func

[inner epoch]

Ohh ok

[royal wind]

Hmm, I might do this

[royal wind]

No, because it's only created if a user does it the first time

This is so if I make new features that require fields, I won't forget adding it

[inner epoch]

Is there some way for the bot to check if it misses any permission?

[slate swan]

it raises a discord.ext.commands.BotMissingPermissions exception

[inner epoch]

Aha got it thanks!!

[slate swan]

..

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ext.commands.BotMissingPermissions

exception discord.ext.commands.BotMissingPermissions(missing_permissions, *args)```
Exception raised when the bot’s member lacks permissions to run a command.

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

[vale wing]

It depends on your case

There are at least 3 ways but they relate to different situations

[rose birch]

hey guys, I'm having issues with the bot not running tasks in the background >< the idea is to iterate through names inside of a dictionary then make a background task for that specific item. issue is, it gets stuck on the very first item and doesn't proceed to the next

itemNames = [item1, item2, ..]
async def main():
  for item in itemNames:
    await createTask(item)

async def createTask(item):
  await bot.loop.create_task(backgroundTask(item))

async def backgroundTask(item):
  while True:
    print(item)
  await asyncio.sleep(5)

# my output: 
# item1
# item1
# ...

[vale wing]

!d discord.ext.tasks.loop

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ext.tasks.loop

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

[vale wing]

Use this for background tasks

Examples in docs

And this one gets stuck because of while True loop (why would you even want to print something forever)

[rose birch]

I looked at this particular one but mine doesn't seem to work the same https://github.com/Rapptz/discord.py/blob/master/examples/background_task_asyncio.py

...
async def setup_hook(self) -> None:
        # create the background task and run it in the background
        self.bg_task = self.loop.create_task(self.my_background_task())
...

[vale wing]

Use the thing I suggested

The thing in the examples is not for your case

[inner epoch]

Aha got it Ill fix that with error event

[inner epoch]

Umm I just want my bot to like say "Hey I miss this permission pls enable it"

[glacial echo]

but?

[vale wing]

For that the error handler handling the BotMissingPermissions is enough

[glacial echo]

this should pull the relevant embed for this channel?

[inner epoch]

Umm how to get which permission is missing?

[vale wing]

Wth is currentEmbed

[glacial echo]

a dictionary

[vale wing]

I think it's error.missing_permissions

[glacial echo]

theoretically in format {channelid : embed}

client.currentEmbed[ctx.channel.id] = await ctx.send(embed=embedVar)

[vale wing]

!d discord.ext.commands.BotMissingPermissions.missing_permissions

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ext.commands.BotMissingPermissions.missing\_permissions

The required permissions that are missing.

[vale wing]

This @inner epoch

[vale wing]

It puts a message not an embed

send returns the message

Your embed is embedVar

[glacial echo]

an embed is a message type

ok so

[vale wing]

O nvm didn't see

[glacial echo]

i am constructing an embed, and assigning it to the embed parameter of a message

[vale wing]

Your format is channel_id: message

Don't confuse

[glacial echo]

then later i am trying to pull the message (which only has an embed) and change what the embed is within the message

[vale wing]

Try printing the dict

[glacial echo]

but it would appear that somehow it doesnt have an edit param

[inner epoch]

Aha let me try that!!

[inner epoch]

Aha got it thanks a lot man!!

[glacial echo]

the dict has a none as the channels data

which is odd as before makign it construct a dict to make it channel relative, it was properly setting the value

[glacial echo]

{951924364339716176: None}

[vale wing]

Um yeah

[glacial echo]

thats the channel id but obviously not the embed

[vale wing]

And you define it exactly like this?

[glacial echo]

this

[maiden fable]

@glacial echo u completed the command yesterday?

[glacial echo]

?

[maiden fable]

The join party one

Or idk was that 2 days ago

[vale wing]

Are you sure the send isn't raising any errors

[glacial echo]

the send isnt erroring and is sending the embed in the channel

[vale wing]

Try storing message id as a value in dict and then fetch it when needed

[glacial echo]

?

maybe i need to pre-assign the dict key?

[vale wing]

m = await ctx.send(...)
client.current_embeds[ctx.channel.id] = m.id

...

# when the fetch
m = await client.get_channel(channel_id).fetch_message(client.current_embeds[channel_id])
await m.edit(...)```

[glacial echo]

nope

[vale wing]

And you define the client like commands.Bot right?

[glacial echo]

yes

client = commands.Bot

[vale wing]

Anyway try this method

[glacial echo]

client.get_channel(channel_id) isnt a thing

channel_id at least isnt

[maiden fable]

!d disnake.Client.get_channel exists

[unkempt canyon]

disnake.Client.get\_channel

get_channel(id, /)```
Returns a channel or thread with the given ID.

[glacial echo]

ahhhh

it would seem that send doesnt return anything in disnake

for some reason?

[slate swan]

it returns a Message object

[glacial echo]

one would think

it appears to not be doing that

[slate swan]

it does

[glacial echo]

yeah i know it should but its returning a NoneType

[slate swan]

is the message sent or not?

[glacial echo]

yes

[slate swan]

try printing the object

[maiden fable]

Channel*

[glacial echo]

it sends a message, then fails to return that object

[slate swan]

huh?

[maiden fable]

Eh, what u talking about

[slate swan]

!d discord.abc.Messageable.send

[unkempt canyon]

discord.abc.Messageable.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**.

[maiden fable]

Ah, talking about send

My bad

[slate swan]

get better

[maiden fable]

¯_(ツ)_/¯

[slate swan]

lol

[slate swan]

disnake dies in its own world sometimes 😔
@maiden fable any help?

[maiden fable]

What

disnake never fucked up send method's return

[slate swan]

yeah

[glacial echo]

maybe my internet is just being shit right now?

[maiden fable]

@glacial echo mind showing code?

[maiden fable]

Doesn't matter

[slate swan]

try updating disnake 😔

[glacial echo]

would it be possible my internet being slow means it is moving on in the code before it actualyl gets a returned ID

[glacial echo]

i installed it literally last night

[maiden fable]

Nah

[slate swan]

welp

[maiden fable]

can I see some code?

[slate swan]

that happens locally ig

[slate swan]

||but......||

[maiden fable]

Don't

[glacial echo]

can i just link my github for it?

[slate swan]

yeah do that

[glacial echo]

https://github.com/TacocaTYT/Boopsy

[maiden fable]

Link the GitHub line

not the whole repo

[slate swan]

or the file url 😔

[glacial echo]

[maiden fable]

Also the repo is private

[glacial echo]

its private???

b r u h

[maiden fable]

A file can still have multiple lines, soooo

[slate swan]

just tell the line number huhhh

[maiden fable]

Prolly

[maiden fable]

Might as well give the line link instead

[glacial echo]

damn ig its fixed

[maiden fable]

which file

[glacial echo]

https://github.com/TacocaTYT/Boopsy/blob/8a6cf2c1335c7241138e73ff9bcd8e77c5b94d2f/dicord_game_bot.py#L57

[unkempt canyon]

dicord_game_bot.py line 57

async def startGame(ctx, gameID: int = 1):```

[slate swan]

why does github return 404 when the status is actually forbidden access

[maiden fable]

Cz it wanna hide that the repo is private

[glacial echo]

ohhhh its private cause i created it from a local repo with github desktop

duh

[maiden fable]

What's the issue?

Like, what doesn't work

[glacial echo]

so, when you send a message for the game it cant edit the embeds

[maiden fable]

Ha I got the issue

u r using slash commands

[glacial echo]

becasue for some reason the message object within the dict is a NoneType object and NOT a message object

[slate swan]

you made the stuff more complex than they should be

[maiden fable]

Haha u need to do ctx.original_message()

[glacial echo]

almost definitely

[maiden fable]

!d disnake.Interaction.original_message

[unkempt canyon]

disnake.Interaction.original\_message

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

Fetches the original interaction response message associated with the interaction.

Here is a table with response types and their associated original message...

[maiden fable]

Totally me in the first try

[slate swan]

slashes and Context

why would you do this to them

[slate swan]

can relate cool

[glacial echo]

where

where do i do that

[maiden fable]

After ctx.send

In the next line: var = await ctx.original_message() replacing var with the original variable

[glacial echo]

not sure i understand ???

[vale wing]

OH LMAO THAT WAS A SLASH COMMAND

Name variables properly for god's sake

It should not be ctx, it should be something like inter

[glacial echo]

i mean?

idk man it worked by default so

[vale wing]

And yeah

!d disnake.ApplicationCommandInteraction.send

[unkempt canyon]

disnake.ApplicationCommandInteraction.send

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

Sends a message using either [`response.send_message`](https://docs.disnake.dev/en/latest/api.html#disnake.InteractionResponse.send_message "disnake.InteractionResponse.send_message") or [`followup.send`](https://docs.disnake.dev/en/latest/api.html#disnake.Webhook.send "disnake.Webhook.send").

If the interaction hasn’t been responded to yet, this method will call [`response.send_message`](https://docs.disnake.dev/en/latest/api.html#disnake.InteractionResponse.send_message "disnake.InteractionResponse.send_message"). Otherwise, it will call [`followup.send`](https://docs.disnake.dev/en/latest/api.html#disnake.Webhook.send "disnake.Webhook.send").

Note

This method does not return a [`Message`](https://docs.disnake.dev/en/latest/api.html#disnake.Message "disnake.Message") object. If you need a message object, use [`original_message()`](https://docs.disnake.dev/en/latest/api.html#disnake.ApplicationCommandInteraction.original_message "disnake.ApplicationCommandInteraction.original_message") to fetch it, or use [`followup.send`](https://docs.disnake.dev/en/latest/api.html#disnake.Webhook.send "disnake.Webhook.send") directly instead of this method if you’re sending a followup message.

[vale wing]

Returns nothing

[hasty raptor]

Can someone help me with slash commands in my cogs file using the pycord library

[maiden fable]

Hm?

[glacial echo]

MY BOT WORKS LETSS GOOOO

i just got my friedn to play it and we had the first successful game

this is incredible

[maiden fable]

Yay!

Congrats

[glacial echo]

now

i either add a random restriction to the words each round and implement a gameover condition, implement a universal game end command, implement the gamemaster role stuff, OR fuck off and code hangman into the bot cause it sounds fairly easy

is there a library that will generate a random word

[maiden fable]

Hmmm u will have to use a dictionary module ig

!pypi dictionary

[unkempt canyon]

dictionary v1.0

Python dictionary module,spell checking,sessions ..

[maiden fable]

idk if this supports it

[glacial echo]

i found one

random-words is a library

time to implement the base of a hangman game

if i get the UI for it working somewhat ill go to bed

hmmmm it says its not installed but it is

[slate swan]

https://www.toptal.com/developers/hastebin/qipereyiza.sql wth is this uhhh

[glacial echo]

https://pypi.org/project/Random-Word/

this isnt seeming to work

it seems to not be importable in the way the documentation says

[vale wing]

Just use some hangman API pretty sure there are some

[maiden fable]

what's yr disnake version

!pypi hangman

[unkempt canyon]

Hangman v1.4.0.

A typical game of Hangman, with a cheatcode;)

[maiden fable]

@glacial echo might as well see its source code 👀

[slate swan]

who knows 😔

[maiden fable]

then see it

pip show disnake or print(disnake.__version__)

[maiden fable]

Hmm

Ah I got the issue

See the first line

relative imports goes brrrrrr

give it a parent package name

[glacial echo]

thats no fun now is it

and wont get me marks

[maiden fable]

>>> from dis import dis
>>> dis(__import__("random"))

Istg don't run this code as long as u don't want to see yr console spammed with lines

[glacial echo]

man

[maiden fable]

😔 when I changed from random to disnake

[glacial echo]

why is my imports not working

[maiden fable]

🤣 the memory fucked up

[slate swan]

uhhh I thought I'd make a bot But it bored mke as soon as I wrote commands.Cog

so leave it uh

[maiden fable]

👏

[tired agate]

What this should do:
add a song to the queue , and play when the previous song finishes

What bug i get:
Upon adding a song, ignores the queue system and just plays it

I get this error in console:

Ignoring exception in on_wavelink_track_end
wavelink.errors.QueueEmpty: No items in the queue.

[maiden fable]

thanks for the honors

[vale wing]

But uh is wavelink related to those

[maiden fable]

Yea

[vale wing]

Ok

[maiden fable]

More or less, both wave and lava link is related to ytdl directly or indirectly

[glacial echo]

wavelinks github mentions spotify not youtube

[maiden fable]

Still against ToS

[tawdry perch]

afaik, spotify doesn't allow it

[maiden fable]

Yup

[glacial echo]

ah

[tawdry perch]

why everyone wants to make music bots 😔

[glacial echo]

cause youtube killed all the good ones

man why cant i download and use any modules

this is so stupid

[maiden fable]

Wym

[glacial echo]

i cant use the random-word module

[maiden fable]

any error?

[glacial echo]

it keeps saying it isnt a module reference

[tawdry perch]

just listen to spotify

[maiden fable]

Indeed

[maiden fable]

Restart IDE

[glacial echo]

i have restarted my IDE like 15 times

[maiden fable]

!pypi random_word

[unkempt canyon]

Random-Word v1.0.7

This is a simple python package to generate random english words

[maiden fable]

Wrong python version?

[vale wing]

Use a venv and install there

[maiden fable]

U got two?

[vale wing]

Venv good 👍

[maiden fable]

Hmm I never used that as such lmao

[glacial echo]

that library says it wokrs with 3.10 which im using

[maiden fable]

No I mean

[vale wing]

Venv is very convenient

[glacial echo]

how do, how much work woudl it take changing to using that

[maiden fable]

wait, can u do py -3.10 -m pip install random_word in the command prompt?

[maiden fable]

A mere 2 min tbh

[tawny swallow]

Is there another way to keep my bot online other than using Replit

[maiden fable]

u gotta host it at least anywhere

[vale wing]

py -m venv venv```
CTRL + SHIFT + P -> Select Interpreter -> venv

[vale wing]

Easy

[glacial echo]

dont use replit for hsoting at all

[maiden fable]

Oh my bad

[glacial echo]

you could selfhost or check pins

[maiden fable]

random_word*

[vale wing]

And yeah update pip

pip install -U pip```

[maiden fable]

remove the s

[glacial echo]

whats updating pip do

[vale wing]

Pip 22.0 has nice loading bars 😀

[maiden fable]

indeed

I just love those lmao

[vale wing]

Also before 22.0 there were issues with some modules installation on 3.10

[maiden fable]

idk bout that

BTW imagine if u could update Python via pip too 🤣

[vale wing]

If you tried to install something like scikit you would get weird wheel errors

[vale wing]

Epic

[maiden fable]

Hmm idk about that

[maiden fable]

Better for people like me who tend to forget to update it

[glacial echo]

imagine if you could update everything via pip

[maiden fable]

related to Python*

[glacial echo]

no, just everything

[vale wing]

I just did sudo do-release-upgrade -d and it updated my ubuntu to 21 with py 3.10

[maiden fable]

Cool

[maiden fable]

NOOOOOO

[glacial echo]

anyways

still not working

[vale wing]

Then just use venv

Venv always works

Even without restarting the IDE

[maiden fable]

mind showing yr code?

[vale wing]

But uh it might require some first usage setup

[glacial echo]

if im doing anyhting more installign and setup stuff im doing it tomorrow tbh

its late already

[vale wing]

Like editing regedit

[maiden fable]

stop

[glacial echo]

https://pastebin.com/XE6gZBWQ

[maiden fable]

Hmm and module not found error?

[glacial echo]

ye

[maiden fable]

Can u see yr selected python version from the bottom bar?

[maiden fable]

No

[vale wing]

Oh yeah there might be issues with modules resolving if you have multiple pythons installed

[maiden fable]

From here

[maiden fable]

At the vert bottom

[vale wing]

that's why you should use venv

[maiden fable]

Oh well

[glacial echo]

yea yea i get it venv gud

[maiden fable]

Windows Store goes brrrrrrrrrrrrrr

[vale wing]

Sus

[maiden fable]

most prolly that is the issue

[vale wing]

Why not just https://python.org

[maiden fable]

@glacial echo delete that python version and install python 3.10 from https://python.org

[maiden fable]

damn u

[vale wing]

Delete all python versions*

And freeze the packages to install them back before

[glacial echo]

kill me

i swapped to 3.10.2 normal isntall from the 3.10.3 store version

[maiden fable]

Ah

[vale wing]

Kinda fast

[maiden fable]

then do py -3.10.2 -m pip install disnake

[glacial echo]

i had both

[maiden fable]

in the cli

[maiden fable]

remove the windows store one, its useless

[glacial echo]

dunno how tbh

it autoinstalled at some point

[maiden fable]

Hmm, delete it

run the Python 3.10.2 installer again and reinstall python launcher

[vale wing]

Check your applications installed, search python and delete all pythons, then just do setup as hunter said and don't forget to check "add python to PATH"

[maiden fable]

Yea

[glacial echo]

ok so windows wont let me uninstall

[vale wing]

😳

[maiden fable]

And this way, u will remember that Python from Windows Store fucked up my sleep schedule once so I won't install it ever again

[maiden fable]

A blue popup?

SmartScreen or smth like that, right?

[vale wing]

SmartScreen usually pops up when you try to actually install

[maiden fable]

Yea, click on More Info and Run Anyway

[glacial echo]

no, a window titled unexpected error

[maiden fable]

Huh show

man why is this so broken

[slate swan]

lol bye gl

!d discord.Reaction.emoji

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Reaction.emoji

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

[slate swan]

Check if the emoji is what you want, if so add the role to the member.

if reaction.emoji == "emoji":
    await user.add_roles(role)

[slate swan]

str(reaction.emoji)

[slate swan]

I have this in my code

[slate swan]

In the docs it says it returns Union[Emoji, PartialEmoji, str].

[slate swan]

ikr, you do know that it returns an Emoji object

But it says str too

[slate swan]

Still the bot is not giving the role

[slate swan]

Here's how to format Python code on Discord:

```

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

[slate swan]

I don't belive :redf: is a valid emoji.

So should I add the emoji id thing?

[unkempt canyon]

Naw.

No documentation found for the requested symbol.

[slate swan]

then what should I do?

[drowsy thunder]

aaaa

[slate swan]

Just delete the last character.

[slate swan]

after guild .roles, "red" right?

[drowsy thunder]

Wdym

[slate swan]

I suppose

[slate swan]

Delete the last character on line 27.

[drowsy thunder]

So its time_dict[unit?

[glacial echo]

:redf: ?

[slate swan]

Changed it ._.

[slate swan]

No, but there's an invisble character at the end

[glacial echo]

can bots use animated emoji?

[vale wing]

Why return after return

[drowsy thunder]

Oh

[slate swan]

Yup they can

[slate swan]

Yes

[glacial echo]

and how do bots using custom emoji work, is it emoji that the owner could use?

[vale wing]

The last return will never be reached

[drowsy thunder]

Yes,<a:emojiname:emojid>

But the bot should be in the guild where the emoji is from

[vale wing]

You mean emoji that can only be used by certain role?

[slate swan]

Bots can use any emojis from the server they are in with the format RyanDang#0001 sent

[glacial echo]

ah so ideally you’d make a server for your bot to have emojis it might use in its own UI

[drowsy thunder]

Yes

[slate swan]

I have it in my private server with my bot in it

Same

[glacial echo]

i meant like, do bots have access to emoji of the server their in or that their owner is in, and do bots have nitro or only if the owner has nitro

[drowsy thunder]

Yes,I personally use a private server where my bot emotes are stored

[vale wing]

Ah you mean that

[drowsy thunder]

It doesnt need nitro,even if the owner doesnt have,the bot will work

[vale wing]

Bots are basically nitro users but without banners and tag customisation that's it

Ofc we can't say they all have nitro

Basically they have access to things that are accessible for humans only with nitro

[glacial echo]

why dont bots have custom banners

[drowsy thunder]

@vale wing Exactly,you are correct they dont have the customization and stuff but they can use custom emojis

[glacial echo]

wait bots get anim pfp?

[drowsy thunder]

Dude

[slate swan]

No

[glacial echo]

ah

[drowsy thunder]

!rule 7

[unkempt canyon]

Rules

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

[slate swan]

Still
The role is not added
And the on_ready event when my bot says it’s online it’s not there
No errors on reaction or code

[slate swan]

Show your new code agian

[slate swan]

It comes the same way ._.

With the py

[drowsy thunder]

print(hello*10)

[slate swan]

Oh

[drowsy thunder]

Like that

[slate swan]

py stands for python format.

[drowsy thunder]

Yes

[slate swan]

I was viewing from my iPad, sorry lol

[slate swan]

When you run that code, is your user id 956441072916107304?

[slate swan]

My?

Yes

Nope

Well then that code won't work for you.

Oh I can't read

Sorry

Um?

Nvm, are you in the right channel when adding the reaction?

Yup

The message is sent in color roles channel
With reaction
But no role is given

[royal wind]

This apparently does not work

[slate swan]

cool

[slate swan]

Try adding some print statements, then you'll see where it fails.

[royal wind]

It never invokes the if statement

[slate swan]

znd?

huh

[royal wind]

Yea

It keeps making a new object

[slate swan]

huhh

[royal wind]

Even though there's already one

[slate swan]

sten help 😔 I'm going to play

[royal wind]

I actually wonder, when we pull out collection.find(), I wonder how I should carefully extract the data

I thought it would generate something similar to a Python dictionary

[slate swan]

if "user_id" in userData shouldn't it be if author_id in userData?

no

[royal wind]

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I want to see if the field user_id exist. author_id is the value of author's ID

This is author's id

[slate swan]

iirc, the find method returns a list

You are checking if the users id is "user_id".

[royal wind]

I see. Alright, my goal is to check if userData has a field called user_id

I think I know what you meant

But then I would probably have to use another aproach

[slate swan]

if author_id in userData:

# not
if "user_id" in userData

[royal wind]

Wouldn't it just verify if we're pulling the correct data?

[slate swan]

Or you might want userData["user_id"]

[gaunt ice]

whats the problem

[royal wind]

But wouldn't this statement refers to the value of user_id? which would be that number of 34190878901743

[royal wind]

So I am using mongodb for my discord bot database.

[slate swan]

Oh I forgot it was a dict, my bad.

[gaunt ice]

nice

[royal wind]

When someone sends something on to any channel, the bot will obtain the user's ID and then check on to the database to see if this user already has a "profile".

[gaunt ice]

hmm

[royal wind]

If not, it will create one. This is handled by this part of the code

You know what, even the first half part of the code seems odd, let me fix that real quick

[slate swan]

I think you want this: ```py
if userData["user_id"]:

[royal wind]

Does that code ask if userData has user_id field?

[slate swan]

It checks if the userData has an user_id in it.

[royal wind]

as a key not a value right?

[slate swan]

It accesses the key, and check if there's a value in it.

[slate swan]

Added print(‘done’) after if reaction.emoji == “(the emoji)”:

Didn’t typed emoji name because it was gonna be replaced by :redf:

[slate swan]

Did it print?

[slate swan]

Nope

In that case it returned because you're in the wrong channel.

[royal wind]

I'm stripping everything out. Beginning from here, first, I want to check if there exist a document already for this user. I have the value of author_id which contain user's discord account id.

Assuming I do a lookup based on the account id, and if the user is brand new, there shouldn't be any result coming back. How do I make that logic?

[slate swan]

Oh, you are using != and not ==, so this command will only work if you're in the wrong channel. @slate swan

[slate swan]

So if I use == it will work in the correct channel?

[slate swan]

You could use userData.get("user_id", None), then it would return Ǹone if no member is found.

[slate swan]

I think so.

[royal wind]

What does that None mean?

[slate swan]

It returns None if the user_id isn't in userData.

[royal wind]

okay

Let me try

[slate swan]

Also you might want to ask in #databases

[vast gale]

@slate swan uwu

[slate swan]

You shouldn't ping people without reason

[royal wind]

it has no attribute get

[slate swan]

Oh, I thougt userData was a dictionary.

[royal wind]

It's saying it's a cursor

[slate swan]

Well then check #databases

[royal wind]

But all the examples on geeksforgeeks is like this

[slate swan]

Still the role is not given

Even the bots role is above color role

Does it print anything?

Nope

[vast gale]

ik :P

[slate swan]

Try adding another printstatement at the very beginning of on_reaction_add

mhm k

When the bot is successfully online it says “hi”
And on reaction it says the same

I added it after on_reaction_add next line

Alright, can you send the current code?

k wait

@client.event
async def on_ready():
    Channel = client.get_channel(908976132550950952)
    Text= "React Below To Get the color role **Red**"
    Moji = await Channel.send(Text)
    await Moji.add_reaction(':redf:')
@client.event
async def on_reaction_add(reaction, user):
  print("hi")
  ID = 956441072916107304
  red = discord.utils.get(reaction.message.guild.roles, name="red")
  if reaction.message.channel.id == ID:
    return
  if reaction.emoji == ":redf:":
    print('done!')
    await user.add_roles(role)
    await reaction.message.channel.send(f"Done :star3:", delete_after=0.4```

Does it work in the on_ready?

The one on_ready event I have in the start of code is not working
Which always prints (bot is ready)

Do you get any errors?

Nope

No errors in console

[slate swan]

Wait when does it print that?

I can't see the print statement.

[slate swan]

Not in the code I sent
It is in the whole code for the code

Uh, is it more code in the on_ready event?

Ok lemme explain
I have one on ready event at the very start of code for changing bot status and printing that the bot is online
And
The one I sent is this code is different

You can't have multiple on_ready events.

Only one.

Same with all other discord events.

Including on_reaction_add.

So I’ll have to remove the bot on_ready?

Won’t that make the bots status = nothing

[slate swan]

status message*

[placid skiff]

bot status is set with change_presence .-.

[slate swan]

Is on_ready needed for it?

[delicate hornet]

https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/stable/api.html#discord.TextChannel.is_news
what does this give me? anouncements?

[placid skiff]

nope, you can change it whenever in the code

[placid skiff]

this returns True if the channel is a news channel, else false. News channel are channels like #pyweek-33-announcements you can identify them from the megaphone

[slate swan]

https://www.toptal.com/developers/hastebin/qipereyiza.sql wth is this uhhh

[placid skiff]

do you added a folder in your cogs folder?

[slate swan]

no..

[placid skiff]

Mhh can you past the screen or schema of cogs folder?

[slate swan]

I have project about Twitter bot for reply and retweet tweets but i didn't find something to help , do you have any ideas?

[placid skiff]

well that's strange, also i saw that there are two coro which aren't awaited

meanwhile you could try something like this for the cogs:

COGS = [path.split("\\")[1][:-3] for path in glob("./lib/cogs/*py")]

[slate swan]

I've checked, I didnt even write a single function, all the functions are passed as of now

[delicate hornet]

that are anouncements channels

[placid skiff]

bruh

[slate swan]

wut...

[placid skiff]

create a COGS list for all the file which ends with .py in cogs folder

[slate swan]

uh I see

[slate swan]

nvm, I found the issue

[placid skiff]

gg

[slate swan]

I'm dumb

I fixed and got the same error

[placid skiff]

lol

[slate swan]

[slate swan]

.

[slate swan]

Idk if I'm doing something wrong

[placid skiff]

maybe the problem could be that the bot and the setup where you load the cog have a different loop, or you pass that loop to your bot?

[slate swan]

imma try what you said

nice

[placid skiff]

it really was that? xD

[slate swan]

When I used a list comp instead of a simple for loop for loading extensions, it worked

[placid skiff]

interesting

[slate swan]

[placid skiff]

I suggest to you to study this https://www.toptal.com/developers/hastebin/wuzojejafu.py

i think i will add a repo on github soon where i'll add this really simple and very usefull setup, i use this base for all my bots

nvm the database import and other things which will not be included

[manic wing]

tell me youre conceited without telling me youre conceited

[placid skiff]

D_D

[placid skiff]

utils.get() take a single discord object as parameter, you are giving him a list of objects

[royal wind]

Python problem, need help.. It says in my dict, key "user_daily_time" does not exist..

But it's there

[placid skiff]

Lol are you sure that you are taking the value at your_dict["key"]?, read better your code

it is not saying that your dict doesn't have it, the error is saying that dict object has no attribute user_daily_time

[royal wind]

BRUH

Sorry, and thank you

2 AM brain is hard..

not that 12pm brain would do much anyway

[placid skiff]

np

[dense swallow]

    async def get_logs_channel(self, guild_id):
        data = await self.bot.db.fetchval("SELECT channel_id FROM modlogs WHERE guild_id=$1", guild_id)
        if data:
            return self.bot.get_channel(data)

    async def create_webhook(self, guild_id):
        channel = await self.get_logs_channel(guild_id)
        return await channel.create_webhook(
            name=f"{self.bot.user.name} " + "Logging",
            avatar=self.bot.user.avatar.url,
            reason="For logging"
        )

'NoneType' object has no attribute 'create_webhook'... i cant send the webhook, ik what this error means but when im fetching that channel it works.. but it wont send the webhook

im sending the webhook like this:

webhook = await self.create_webhook(ctx.guild.id)
await webhook.send("content here")

[placid skiff]

print the channel var in your create_webhook function

let's see if it get the channel

[final wagon]

Can anyone pls help me
i am getting error in heroku in loading cog
Unable to install C enchant library
even though pyenchant is present in my req.txt

[royal wind]

Dude, it works. My goodness I am happy. I can finally sleep. Thank you kind soul

[placid skiff]

don't use heroku .-.

[sturdy cloud]

Guys I want to make a discord bot with Python that will kick members with a command. I made it, but when I am kicking someone I want the bot send a message. How to do that?

[unkempt canyon]

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

[sturdy cloud]

Ops mistake :)

[placid skiff]

well if it is a command then you have a context, and the context has a send method, so just use it

[sturdy cloud]

._.

ok tnx :)

[dense swallow]

startswith first arg must be str or a tuple of str, not bytes

this is the error it printed

[placid skiff]

i'm not understanding .-.

[manic wing]

Heroku has minimal system dependency control. If any of your Python requirements need C bindings (such as PyNaCl binding to libsodium, or lxml binding to libxml), they are unlikely to function properly, if at all, in a native environment. As such, you often need to resort to adding third-party buildpacks to facilitate otherwise normal CPython extension functionality.

[final wagon]

then what should i use

ohk

[cosmic agate]

how to know which guilds our bot is in?

[desert badger]

do i need 320 kbps audio for a discord music bot ?

[cosmic agate]

no

[desert badger]

since channels are literally just 128 kbps max

[cosmic agate]

no i have music bot and works fine

[desert badger]

so using 128 instead of 320 makes no difference ?

[cosmic agate]

without boost

[cosmic agate]

small quality change nothing else

[desert badger]

wait can kbps go higher when boosted ?

[cosmic agate]

the latency can

go lower

[desert badger]

ill keep it on 64 kbps anyways

[cosmic agate]

and a bit clearer to our ears

[cosmic agate]

keep it as is

[desert badger]

so 128 completely fine ?

[cosmic agate]

tbh

[desert badger]

thank you 💜

[cosmic agate]

https://tenor.com/view/you-are-welcome-youre-welcome-teddy-bear-flying-kiss-my-pleasure-gif-16718131

how to know which guilds our bot is in?

[desert badger]

guild count or guild names

[cosmic agate]

names

[desert badger]

uh

[cosmic agate]

ok lets try guild count

[desert badger]

servers = len(client.guilds)
print(servers)

[manic wing]

[guild.name for guild in bot.guilds]

or list(map(lambda m: m.name, bot.guilds)) which is quicker

why?

and?

he wants the names

[slate swan]

Doesn't hurt having a list either.

[manic wing]

you have absolutely no logic or reasoning, you're just trying to cause trouble

[slate swan]

Be nice

[manic wing]

you cant print a map object, you can print a list object

and...? he wants to see the names not a map object

not if you print the map object

[slate swan]

Why are you even arguing about this?

[manic wing]

who knows

as i said, he's causing trouble for absolutely no reason at all

[slate swan]

Let TransilP choose the one he wants.

Why does my nick command not work?

[unkempt canyon]

@slate swan :white_check_mark: Your eval job has completed with return code 0.

0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9

[slate swan]

Error?

[slate swan]

there is no error

[slate swan]

The argument might override the command name.

Also, no need for setting the embeds title to nothing, it is automatically None.

And why do you have pass_context passed into the command?

@client.event
async def on_member_join(member):
mbed = discord.Embed(
colour =(discord.Colour.magenta()),
title = 'Welcome Message',
description = 'Welcome{member.mention}, enjoy your stay!')

await member.send(embed=mbed)

why its not working

someone tell me where am i wrong

[slate swan]

!code

[unkempt canyon]

Here's how to format Python code on Discord:

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

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

[slate swan]

Use that please

@slate swan

[maiden fable]

!intents also u r missing a closing brakcet

[unkempt canyon]

Using intents in discord.py

Intents are a feature of Discord that tells the gateway exactly which events to send your bot. By default, discord.py has all intents enabled, except for the Members and Presences intents, which are needed for events such as on_member and to get members' statuses.

To enable one of these intents, you need to first go to the Discord developer portal, then to the bot page of your bot's application. Scroll down to the Privileged Gateway Intents section, then enable the intents that you need.

Next, in your bot you need to set the intents you want to connect with in the bot's constructor using the intents keyword argument, like this:

from discord import Intents
from discord.ext import commands

intents = Intents.default()
intents.members = True

bot = commands.Bot(command_prefix="!", intents=intents)

For more info about using intents, see the discord.py docs on intents, and for general information about them, see the Discord developer documentation on intents.

[slate swan]

And you need to make the description in the embed to a f-string.

[maiden fable]

Yea thhat too

[slate swan]

closing bracket?

which line?

Idk, can't see it.

[maiden fable]

wait nvm

I misread sorry

[slate swan]

Poeny, can you please use the code format?

[slate swan]

i am really sorry , can plz tell me how to ? i am new to this

!code

thank u , i now learned it

now sm1 tell me whats wrong

Great, now fix the intents and make it a f-string.

[slate swan]

like this?

Yes, and the intents if you don't already have them.

what intents? i gave my bot perms , that one?

!intents

[slate swan]

Read it

import os
import random
import requests
import json
import discord
from discord.ext import commands
import keep_alive

client = commands.Bot(command_prefix ="%")

isnt it enough?

No, you need to add the intents.

[slate swan]

i did

[slate swan]

Can't see it

[manic wing]

bot = commands.Bot(command_prefix="!", intents=intents)

[slate swan]

import os
import random
import requests
import json
import discord
from discord.ext import commands
import keep_alive
from discord import Intents


intents = Intents.default()
intents.members = True

bot = commands.Bot(command_prefix="%", intents=intents)

[manic wing]

o.O

[slate swan]

Don't define bot and client twice.

Remove the client line.

And don't import commands twice either

now?

Sure

Test your command

[manic wing]

where?

[slate swan]

He edited the message

[slate swan]

Also, is keep_alive a module?

[manic wing]

a local python file to keep his replit alve

[slate swan]

Then shouldn't it be like: ```py
from keep_alive import keep_alive

[manic wing]

doesnt matter

he can just do keep_alive.keep_alive

[slate swan]

from flask import Flask
from threading import Thread

app = Flask('')

@app.route('/')
def main():
  return "Hello, I am running!"

def run():
  app.run(host="0.0.0.0", port = 8080)

def keep_alive():
  server= Thread(target=run)
  server.start()

[manic wing]

we know

[slate swan]

Did it work?

[slate swan]

no

Any error?

replit

[slate swan]

works fine.

[slate swan]

no errors its the issue

``` I am not sure how to do this but how do I make a command to set a log channel

[slate swan]

In cogs you do commands.command.

[junior verge]

oh lmao

I am in cogs

but still

[slate swan]

And the command shouldn't be inside __init__.

[slate swan]

🤣 noticed only now

[junior verge]

oh lol

but the log_channels[str line has intent problems it says

[maiden fable]

BTW does this work?

[slate swan]

Yeah, indent it once.

[junior verge]

Not sure

[junior verge]

1 tab back or

[maiden fable]

after indenting it inside the init

[slate swan]

😓

[junior verge]

I did

import discord
from discord.ext import commands
import json

with open('log_channels.json', 'r') as f:
        log_channels = json.load(f)

class Setlog(commands.Cog):

[maiden fable]

!indent

[unkempt canyon]

Indentation

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

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

Example

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

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

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

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

[junior verge]

aahh

lemme try

[maiden fable]

Haha

[junior verge]

was just a dumb mistake

[maiden fable]

All cool

as long as u understand yr mistake

[junior verge]

let me try if this works

yeah

uh

I can't push

[maiden fable]

Ah

first do git pull

[junior verge]

still same error

[maiden fable]

show

[manic wing]

whats the git pull output

[junior verge]

No error when pulling

[maiden fable]

pull

[junior verge]

did

[manic wing]

show the pul outpu

[maiden fable]

then push

[maiden fable]

ah, u edited yr code locally before pushing which has resulted in errors

[junior verge]

I never had this before lol

[manic wing]

basically the code in the remote is different to your local

so you have a couple options

either you stash all the code, pull and then pop it

which is probably the best way

or you reclone it and move your files

or you can just stash it and not pop it

[junior verge]

so how to fix it

[maiden fable]

Lmao

[manic wing]

git stash
git pull
git stash pop
git push```

[manic wing]

whats git status output

[manic wing]

it tells you what to do; do git add .

[manic wing]

yes

[junior verge]

I usually do git add *

[manic wing]

continue doing this

[manic wing]

did you do git stash?

[junior verge]

ye

[manic wing]

what was the output to git stash

[manic wing]

whats the full output to this

[junior verge]

thats it

[manic wing]

[junior verge]

so

what now

[slate swan]

You can just add a force flag at the end of tat

[junior verge]

wdym

[slate swan]

git push -f

that works for me everytime i get that error

[slate swan]

yeah

its pushed

to the master branch

of your repo

[manic wing]

[junior verge]

yep ty

[slate swan]

my small brain does not allow me to interpret the meaning of this emoji

[slate swan]

[maiden fable]

😔 You do know forcing isn't gut, right?

[slate swan]

well, it is what it is

[manic wing]

that was my point

[maiden fable]

mhm

[slate swan]

dont know what you mean by that

[maiden fable]

I ain't explaining anything I hate git anyways

[manic wing]

why

its really easy when you get the hang of it

[slate swan]

learning git would have been a better investment than hunai

[maiden fable]

I know 3 things about it: push, pull clone

[minor totem]

Just don't push commits until you're 100% happy with them

[maiden fable]

Rest all, VSCode handles for me

[maiden fable]

😔 I always push to the ui branch and tries to merge ui into master but idk what I do wrong it just doesn't happen

[slate swan]

you can find the docs online, you dont need to watch any videos or anything

[maiden fable]

I know

[slate swan]

welp, your choice

[maiden fable]

I never really had to use any other commands, so never really saw the docs as much

[slate swan]

branch?

[maiden fable]

I make from github.com

Yea oki, use the ot command now 👏

[slate swan]

nice

[slate swan]

!rule 7

[unkempt canyon]

Rules

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

[slate swan]

also

which users does the bot track in the on_user_update event

[maiden fable]

bot.users

[slate swan]

ew

alright

thanks

[maiden fable]

Wasn't that obvious tho

[slate swan]

it was, I was just bored

so i asked a question that was completely irrelevant to me

[maiden fable]

Lmao

[junior verge]

When I do .setlog #channel my github doesn't update. How do I gotta do that when I use github heroku

[boreal ravine]

why would the repository update

[junior verge]

Yeah I know

But how do I do that then uhm

[hushed field]

a database?

[junior verge]

yeah but idk how

[iron sorrel]

sqlite or json database

json db is easier tbh
but sql is better

[junior verge]

not possible for me

json

[vale wing]

Not sure if this is python related question

[iron sorrel]

whats your limitations?

[junior verge]

I use heroku with github

[vale wing]

JSON !!!!!= database

[iron sorrel]

this channel is discord-bots

[vale wing]

Those don't even stay near

[iron sorrel]

and json database is easy to make for beginners,

no one starts with sql

[vale wing]

And his question is kinda not

[junior verge]

Well I don't know how to do that with a discord bot, set a log channel

[vale wing]

Don't even use such term "json database", there are "json-like databases" but a bunch of json files or a single json file can't be considered a database

[vale wing]

You mean github events?

[iron sorrel]

stop

[vale wing]

That's implementable with webhooks, you don't even need a bot

[junior verge]

No lol

Set a log channel with a database

[vale wing]

Oh

You could make an architecture in which all the queries would go to one function and that function would always log what it is supposed to

[junior verge]

Yeah I got no clue to do that

[vale wing]

async def exec_query(query, ...):
    await db.execute(...)
    log.info("Query executed: %s", query)```

[pliant gulch]

If your storing data to a file in Heroku, it will refresh the state of the file back to how it was on the push, this is because heroku uses an ephemeral file system

In order to store data on heroku that changes, you’d need a database hosted outside of heroku

[junior verge]

yeah but idk how

[vale wing]

Maybe it provides separate databases

[maiden fable]

moneh moneh

[vale wing]

But basically just use a VPS

Digital ocean free 100$ for two months, amazon AWS free server for a year

[slate swan]

const express = require("express");
const app = express()

app.listen(3000,() => {
console.log("project is running!")
})

app.get("/", (req, res) => {
res.send("Hello world!");
})

const Discord = require("discord.js");
const Client = new Discord.Client({intents : ["GUILDS", "GUILD_MESSAGES"]});

client.on("message", message => {
if(message.content === "ping") {
message.channel.send("pong");
}
})

client.login(process.env.token);

[vale wing]

Vultr has free options as well but they aren't really "free" as they charge you to activate bonus

[maiden fable]

discord.gg/djs @slate swan

[slate swan]

express and djs together

so i have this in my on_message and it basically reply every time it got mention and i wanna ask if there's anyway i can except the @everyone @here cuz it automatically reply whenever we mention the @everyone @here

[boreal ravine]

check for it's content

[slate swan]

here's the code

    if client.user.mentioned_in(message):
        answers = ["yes", "no"]
        await message.reply(random.choice(answers))

Then add and check if @everyone and @here isn't in there.

!d discord.Message.mentions

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Message.mentions

A list of Member that were mentioned. If the message is in a private message then the list will be of User instead. For messages that are not of type MessageType.default, this array can be used to aid in system messages. For more information, see system_content.

Warning

The order of the mentions list is not in any particular order so you should not rely on it. This is a Discord limitation, not one with the library.

[boreal ravine]

check if the message content is only the bots mention format ig ```py
if message.content in ('<@id>', '<@!id>'):
...

[slate swan]

thanks

if member.mention in message.mentions:

you need to load the .env

!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**.
