how could i make it so when someone tries to use a comd on cooldown, it dms them...
it has the ctx argument which the Context class has the author attr which returns a member which the Member class has .send method
slate swan
Sure either
is the return type User | Member? a union return type!

ok
@sick birch can you help with it?
nvm started working
just changed to
await ctx.send(str(loads['action']))
austere vale
async def nickname(self, ctx, user : nextcord.Member, *, nickname=""):
nickname = nickname.strip()
if nickname == "":
nickname = None
try:
await self.bot.change_nickname(user, nickname)
await self.bot.say("Done.")
except nextcord.Forbidden:
await self.bot.say("I cannot do that, I lack the "
"\"Manage Nicknames\" permission.")
what do i put instead of change_nickname?
sick birch
Are you following a tutorial?
austere vale
ye they used change_nickname but i got that error when i ran it
sick birch
Well, don't
Because for one, change_nickname is not a thing, say() is not a thing. It was outdated a looong time ago
austere vale
what should be used instead of change_nickname then?
sick birch
The first thing to do is stop following that tutorial
next, take a look at this: https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/stable/api.html#discord.ClientUser
It represents yourself. It has methods that you can perform on yourself
You're probably interested in the edit() coroutine of discord.ClientUser
Also, what's the point of this:
nickname = nickname.strip()
if nickname == "":
nickname = None
Why not just make nickname a required argument and catch it with an error handler?
Also, if this code is exactly the same as whoever made the tutorial, they're doing a pretty bad job, no offense
austere vale
async def nickname(self, ctx, user : nextcord.Member, *, nickname=""):
nickname = nickname.strip()
if nickname == "":
nickname = None
try:
await user.edit(nick=nickname)
await ctx.send("Done.")
except nextcord.Forbidden:
await ctx.send("I cannot do that, I lack the "
"\"Manage Nicknames\" permission.")
how do i fix this?
sick birch
Well your bot says it
austere vale
they have administrator though
sick birch
Also I recommend you get rid of
nickname = nickname.strip()
if nickname == "":
nickname = None
and make nickname a required argument
Are you the owner of the server?
Or is your role higher than the bot's?
austere vale
im the owner
sick birch
That's why
austere vale
ohh is that why
sick birch
Yes, that's why
austere vale
if i were to make it a required argument, how do i set it so that it removes the nickname if there is nothing?
sick birch
Oh. Then you might wanna set it to None
austere vale
oo oki

why are you using keep_alive? .-.
placid skiff
so?...
spice adder
Better way to do it?
placid skiff
to do what? your bot stays online untill you close up your terminal
spice adder
Isn't that only when self-hosted?
placid skiff
Lol ok you are using free hosting
placid skiff
Replit
While this may seem like a nice and free service, it has a lot more caveats than you might think, such as:
The machines are super underpowered.
You need to run a webserver alongside your bot to prevent it from being shut off.
Repl.it uses an ephemeral file system.
They use a shared IP for everything running on the service.
This one is important - if someone is running a user bot on their service and gets banned, everyone on that IP will be banned. Including you.
Heroku
Bots are not what the platform is designed for. Heroku is designed to provide web servers (like Django, Flask, etc). This is why they give you a domain name and open a port on their local emulator.
Heroku's environment is heavily containerized, making it significantly underpowered for a standard use case.
Heroku's environment is volatile. In order to handle the insane amount of users trying to use it for their own applications, Heroku will dispose your environment every time your application dies unless you pay.
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. (This is the reason why voice doesn't work natively on heroku.)
Heroku only offers a limited amount of time on their free programme for your applications. If you exceed this limit, which you probably will, they'll shut down your application until your free credit resets.
placid skiff
Now, am I doing something wrong with the command stuff itself?
nothing is wrong, free hosting doesn't works.
spice adder
I see
Hm
When I try to look up how to self-host, I get a shit ton of links for "Host your bot 24/7 on our service for free!" So I'm not sure where to turn to learn how to self-host
placid skiff
nowhere, free hosting are bad, they're free because they provide a bad quality service and they get payed by the advertising and the visit on their site
you gain a bad service and they gain money, that's all
latent ember
How much hosting costs

Trust me, I'd rather not be running on a free host either 
placid skiff
How much hosting costs

You would need to translate the user parameter to a Member object.
So, for example, you could type-hint that to discord.Member.
>>> @commands.command()
>>> async def my_command(ctx, arg1: int, arg2: discord.Role):
>>> print(type(arg1))
<class 'int'>```
This is because, when you pass command arguments into their functions, they are passed in by default as strings.
