discord-bots

[slate swan]

lemme read the issue

[heady sluice]

that bot > client

[slate swan]

i agree

[slate swan]

ty

[heady sluice]

.

[slate swan]

whats the update_json function

[heady sluice]

actually, I could just make a commandtree and assign it to client

[pliant gulch]

And you don’t need either to make slash commands 😳

[heady sluice]

stop

[pliant gulch]

You can do it all from requests without any library abstraction

[heady sluice]

slash commands are cool

[slate swan]

andy go work on rin

[pliant gulch]

No

[heady sluice]

requests is blocking

[pliant gulch]

Request as in RESTful requests

[heady sluice]

nullptr = andy?

[pliant gulch]

I never said aiohttp nor requests etc

[heady sluice]

mmhmm

[slate swan]

😔 urllib requests !

[pliant gulch]

Commits in rewrite branch was just my late April fools

[heady sluice]

[slate swan]

you got the error?

[slate swan]

and what about revolt?

[pliant gulch]

Dropped

[heady sluice]

andy is this the correct way

[slate swan]

i dont see an issue there , do you have a error handler?

[heady sluice]

is this really what I wanna do

[slate swan]

no

[pliant gulch]

No clue I haven’t used this nor read documentation

[slate swan]

so basically you do nothing now

[pliant gulch]

No I have a secret project

[heady sluice]

this is enough info

[slate swan]

[heady sluice]

or I subclass CommandTree with the right error handling function, make an instance of it, then assign it to a discord.Client instance because I don't need bot anymore since I have a CommandTree instance already

[slate swan]

Use hikari and be cool

[heady sluice]

~~Use hikari and ~~be cool

[slate swan]

use hikari and be cool

i mean, you dont need to waste your time reading docs and experimenting stuff with that 😔

[heady sluice]

Use hikari~~ and be cool~~

[slate swan]

😔 its easier, and better and faster

and dont make me mention about the codebase

[heady sluice]

mention about the codebase

[slate swan]

hikari is much better typed

and makes sense

apart from that, it allows you to use the rest freely, and the http/rest client is documented as well Client.http never mentioned coughs

[heady sluice]

I'm happy to hear that

show me a bot you wrote in hikari now

I bet it's wonderful

[slate swan]

currently writing, check the url in my aboutme

started like 5-6 days ago mb

[heady sluice]

it's nice

[quaint epoch]

!d disnake.Member.add_roles

[unkempt canyon]

disnake.Member.add\_roles

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

Gives the member a number of [`Role`](https://docs.disnake.dev/en/latest/api.html#disnake.Role "disnake.Role")s.

You must have [`manage_roles`](https://docs.disnake.dev/en/latest/api.html#disnake.Permissions.manage_roles "disnake.Permissions.manage_roles") permission to use this, and the added [`Role`](https://docs.disnake.dev/en/latest/api.html#disnake.Role "disnake.Role")s must appear lower in the list of roles than the highest role of the member.

[quaint epoch]

i don't actually know either

i don't change it tho

[dull terrace]

How does discord work out API limits

Is it an average of minutes or each minute etc.

[dapper geyser]

hey is there some one that could help me ?

sorry

[full lily]

not until you ask a question

[dapper geyser]

i wanted to script a lil spammer fore anoying my friends but idk why its not working thats the video i used https://youtu.be/LMb5kfJAzws

im really bad at this sorry

[full lily]

why we making spammers? Can't you make something productive?

[dapper geyser]

cause its a small thing and things that are productive are mostly bigger i guess

[visual island]

Discord API has a global rate limit which by default is 50 requests/second (This number can be raised if your bot is big enough). It also have an endpoint specific ratelimit which mostly isn't documented.

[full lily]

TOS police is not happy

[dapper geyser]

😦

[dull terrace]

The per guild limit is 5 per second right?

[maiden fable]

It's dynamic

[dapper geyser]

if u could help me i would try to do somthing prodoctive

[maiden fable]

Wait, do u know bout the endpoint?

[dull terrace]

So if I wanted to code the bot to prevent rate limit it would have to cool down if it exceeds 50 in a second

[maiden fable]

@dull terrace he ratelimits are dynamic

[dull terrace]

Or 3000 in a minute

[maiden fable]

They change with each request u make

[dull terrace]

So how do I prevent the bot exceeding the limit

[maiden fable]

Prevent API calls

[dapper geyser]

does some one have time and could help me ?

[dull terrace]

My bot edits messages quite a lot for each user

[slate swan]

I mean, you could ask here

[visual island]

You really can't check on what number of requests your bot is on

[pliant gulch]

Use a semaphore with 50 thread limit

You can also read request headers

[dull terrace]

Is it a good idea to trigger a cool down if my bot reaches 50 message edits per second though

Or 50 button uses

[dapper geyser]

i wanted to code a spammer but it always tells me for i in range ("0 repeats") is not closed and idk why

i am tbh bad at this

[slate swan]

they use buckets for each endpoint which the ratelimits are dynamic

[slate swan]

range accepts an integer data type

[dull terrace]

I notice things like owobot has a cool down, there must be some logic to that

[slate swan]

!e

for i in range(5): 
     print("uwu")```

[visual island]

Setting the atomic keyword to False allows you to add multiple roles in one request. Otherwise, you will make more than 1 request depending on how many roles you're going to add.

[unkempt canyon]

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

001 | uwu
002 | uwu
003 | uwu
004 | uwu
005 | uwu

[dapper geyser]

what does that mean

[dapper geyser]

ohhh thanks

[slate swan]

well

[dapper geyser]

can i add u when i have more questions that i can finde u and dont need to spamm here if no its also okay sorry

[winged bone]

Thanks. Is there any reason to set atomic to False?

[slate swan]

I mean, I dont accept random friend requests nor am I online as much, so I might not be the good option here

[dapper geyser]

aight but still thanks

[slate swan]

its alright

[dapper geyser]

can i send in the code here i am making ?

[slate swan]

for

?

[dapper geyser]

the spammer cause there are more things not working 😂

[slate swan]

!paste

[unkempt canyon]

Pasting large amounts of code

If your code is too long to fit in a codeblock in discord, you can paste your code here:
https://paste.pythondiscord.com/

After pasting your code, save it by clicking the floppy disk icon in the top right, or by typing ctrl + S. After doing that, the URL should change. Copy the URL and post it here so others can see it.

[slate swan]

^^

[dull terrace]

Does disnake handle rate limits for me?

[slate swan]

yes

all libs do

mostly

[visual island]

No

[dapper geyser]

i put it in there

[winged bone]

Ok

[slate swan]

i'll go fail biology now, bai bai

[slate swan]

save it and send the link

anyways, bye

[placid skiff]

good don't waste your time on biology, programming has a better future

[slate swan]

tell that to my parents and then tell me

[lofty pecan]

Howdy, I was wondering how I could change the discord name of my bot to display its prefix, is there a way to not use ctx? and could I put that on my on_ready function?

[placid skiff]

fun fuct: i didn't waste my time on Italian literatures and i've ended school with a score of 95/100

[lofty pecan]

that's pretty based

[slate swan]

thats.....not a discord bot?

[dapper geyser]

the link of my shame

[dapper geyser]

yes is just a spammer

sorry my englisch is bad

[slate swan]

well

[lofty pecan]

[placid skiff]

i hated my italian teacher too
she was a lot like to a thresh TV celebrity, and i hate thresh TV too lol

[dapper geyser]

sorry

[lofty pecan]

I keep finding way to create command but that's not what I want to do so does anyone know?

[slate swan]

you could set the activity in the bot constructor or use update_presence

[lofty pecan]

how so

[placid skiff]

[lofty pecan]

[placid skiff]

!d discord.Client.change_presence

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Client.change\_presence

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

Changes the client’s presence.

Example

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

[lofty pecan]

ha thank you

^^

but that changes its activity status not server nickname

Maybe I could use this command I already made:

async def get_prefix(bot, message):
    prefixes = fetch('prefixes')
    config = fetch('config')
    
    default_prefix = config["prefix"]
    guild = message.guild
    if guild:
        return prefixes[f'{guild.id}']
    else:
        return default_prefix
``` The problem is that it requires a message so not really possible

[placid skiff]

don't know if you can do that btw

!d discord.Member.display_name

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Member.display\_name

property display_name```
Returns the user’s display name.

For regular users this is just their username, but if they have a guild specific nickname then that is returned instead.

[lofty pecan]

user = ctx.guild.me
user.edit(nickname=new nickname)
I saw this, but it uses ctx

[placid skiff]

You can't change the nickname of an user neither the display name in a server

[lofty pecan]

wait what

why?

[placid skiff]

better, in server you can

but you have to retrieve the Member object of the client

[slate swan]

im high

[lofty pecan]

yeah but the only user I want to change the nickname is the bot

it's only that, in order to show the prefix in the nickname for each server

[placid skiff]

!d discord.Guild.get_member

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Guild.get\_member

get_member(user_id, /)```
Returns a member with the given ID.

Changed in version 2.0: `user_id` parameter is now positional-only.

[placid skiff]

this is a stupid thing btw, when_mentioned_or exists

[lofty pecan]

like those two

[slate swan]

ahem what does Guild.me return?

[lofty pecan]

my bot is the third one and I'd like to display its prefix

like mee6 or carl

[placid skiff]

Yeah i never used that in this way lol

[placid skiff]

they don't do it by default probably the owner of that server changed them name manually

[slate swan]

!d discord.Guild.me idk

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Guild.me

property me```
Similar to [`Client.user`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/api.html#discord.Client.user "discord.Client.user") except an instance of [`Member`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/api.html#discord.Member "discord.Member"). This is essentially used to get the member version of yourself.

[slate swan]

^^

[lofty pecan]

I'm the owner...

I don't remember changing their name lol

[placid skiff]

uhm

[slate swan]

it returns the bot's.....

[lofty pecan]

wdym Ashley?

[placid skiff]

Well btw let's return to what you want to do

[lofty pecan]

ye

[slate swan]

it'll return a Member object of the bot in that case

[placid skiff]

probably it will be mostly impossible to do it in real time

[winged bone]

Do you have a different prefix for ever guild?

[placid skiff]

because you'll need a task loop

[lofty pecan]

yesh

every guild can set their own prefix

[winged bone]

so you could loop through all guilds on startup and see if the nickname already contains the prefix, if not change it

then every time someone changes a guilds prefix, you also update the nickname

[placid skiff]

doing on startup will not make any sense, he needs a loop task

[winged bone]

why so?

[slate swan]

iterating through every guild and checking its prefix then changing its username and re-iterate every 30 mins uwu

[lofty pecan]

mmh

[placid skiff]

because if the bot will be added in another server his display_name will not change in the server where it is added

[winged bone]

oh yeab

so also when he gets added to a new guild, change the nickname

[lofty pecan]

or set nickname on guild_join, when prefix change command is ran add a line of code to update the bot nickname

[placid skiff]

this will be the best way

[lofty pecan]

naisu

[slate swan]

"he"

[lofty pecan]

yes he lol

[slate swan]

bad choice

[winged bone]

No it

[lofty pecan]

nah dude, french bot are he didn't you know

[placid skiff]

Hey it's an english issue to have three third person, in italian it/he/she are the same thing

[lofty pecan]

why?

[slate swan]

if your bot joins a server, you most probably have a default prefix set to new servers, hence not making your nickname eligible for if in a change in the prefix

[placid skiff]

lol exactly

but if he has a change_prefix command he can change the name in that command

[lofty pecan]

? I have a default prefix, on join the nickname is by default with the default prefix, when change prefix is ran it updates the nickname

[slate swan]

right

[lofty pecan]

[slate swan]

you could do that

[lofty pecan]

yay

[placid skiff]

this is useless and when_mentioned_or is better~

[lofty pecan]

?

[slate swan]

just make slash commands

[placid skiff]

LOOOOOT Better

[lofty pecan]

???

[slate swan]

nothing lmao, you continue

[placid skiff]

[slate swan]

Hola

[quaint epoch]

here is command, here is the error,

and yes, i am an admin the server

any clue?

i tried to mute myself in a vc, while in it

[slate swan]

the bot hasnt got the mute_members permission or lacks behind in the role/permission hierarchy

[quaint epoch]

nope, it has a higher role than me

[placid skiff]

for discord, you have the same role level from yourself

[quaint epoch]

admin too

[dull terrace]

have you got members turned on here

[quaint epoch]

yes

[slate swan]

still you are the owner of the server

[placid skiff]

and discord doesn't let mute or ban users with the same role level

[quaint epoch]

im not

[blissful sparrow]

[slate swan]

#bot-commands

[placid skiff]

Bro you can't mute someone who has your same role level, that's all.

[blissful sparrow]

Im tryna convert requests into aiohttp for an ip lookup command, however when I run the command I get discord.errors.HTTPException: 400 Bad Request (error code: 50035): Invalid Form Body In message_reference: Unknown message

https://paste.pythondiscord.com/apahocukup

[quaint epoch]

the bottom admin role is mine, the top is the bot role

and the bot doesn't have the admin role

[blissful sparrow]

sorry

[slate swan]

why do you want someone's ip, huh?

[quaint epoch]

even myself?

[dull terrace]

is it possible to mute a server owner?

[quaint epoch]

nope

[blissful sparrow]

to check the hosting?

[slate swan]

oh lol

[blissful sparrow]

and i own a network

[maiden fable]

You do know that there are many bots that have IP Lookup commands, right?

[blissful sparrow]

so its useful

[maiden fable]

@blissful sparrow u need to use an API

[blissful sparrow]

I do use an api

[dull terrace]

interesting

[blissful sparrow]

ip api

[maiden fable]

Then what is the issue

[blissful sparrow]

discord.errors.HTTPException: 400 Bad Request (error code: 50035): Invalid Form Body
In message_reference: Unknown message

[slate swan]

idk, who even uses discord's bots anyways in the end

[vale wing]

Yes

[quaint epoch]

import socket
ip = socket.gethostbyname(socket.gethostname())
print(ip)```

[blissful sparrow]

this is returned, it works when I used requests

so im assuming i put either too many awaits

or something else entirely

[vale wing]

You referred a message that was deleted

Most likely

[quaint epoch]

okay but NOW, i tried to mute a random member, with no perms, still the same error

and the member is lower than me in roles and perms

?

[vale wing]

Is it lower in roles with bot

[quaint epoch]

yes

[pliant gulch]

It depends on the hierarchy

[quaint epoch]

it has admin

[pliant gulch]

If there is a role above the persons role that has disabled send messages, they won’t be able too

[quaint epoch]

it can ban the same member, but can't mute them

[slate swan]

geocoder library exists

[quaint epoch]

😔

[blissful sparrow]

if thats the case then I defos put an await in the wrong place

[slate swan]

import geocoder

_ip = geocoder.ip('IP ADDRESS')
print(_ip)

[vale wing]

If the error was cause of awaits it would be a different error

[maiden fable]

Whats that idk

how do you get the city

[maiden fable]

IP APIs give that...

[blissful sparrow]

👀

lol gl ssh aint even 22

[vale wing]

😳

[quaint epoch]

i know it's a joke but mods will 😡

[slate swan]

I know 🤷‍♂️ I really meant something else

[quaint epoch]

like what?

[blissful sparrow]

and legit every port is almost whitelsited

[slate swan]

how do i dm a server member with just an ID?

[slate swan]

cant explain

[quaint epoch]

await member.send('thing')

[slate swan]

You mean every port is open?

[quaint epoch]

or await user.create_dm()

[maiden fable]

No need

[blissful sparrow]

no, I have to open ports on tempest firewall

[maiden fable]

That is an unnecessary API call

[blissful sparrow]

they all closed by default

[slate swan]

Tried dat.

    lol = await user.create_dm()
AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'create_dm'```

user = client.get_user(payload.user_id)

[quaint epoch]

welp you have the wrong object

[maiden fable]

Yea

[slate swan]

user = client.get_user(payload.user_id)```

[quaint epoch]

is client a discord.client or bot?

[slate swan]

bot

[quaint epoch]

!d disnake.ext.commands.Bot.get_user

[unkempt canyon]

disnake.ext.commands.Bot.get\_user

get_user(id, /)```
Returns a user with the given ID.

[dull terrace]

still thinking about rate limits libraries handle rate limits for you right? so i should just make a cooldown that prevents one individual using a too large share of resources?

[quaint epoch]

@slate swan, is this code in a on_raw_reaction event?

[slate swan]

what?

[slate swan]

how you gonna implement a cooldown, its nearly complicated

[slate swan]

Yes.

[quaint epoch]

alr

[slate swan]

How do you know?

[quaint epoch]

payload.user_id

[slate swan]

Yeah.

on_raw_reaction_add

[quaint epoch]

user = await client.fetch_user(payload.user_id)
await user.send('thing')```

[dull terrace]

class cooldown:
    async def check(interaction):
        guild_id, send = interaction.guild_id, interaction.send
        if guild_id in guild_cooldown:
            if guild_cooldown[guild_id]:

            del guild_cooldown[guild_id]
            prints(guild_id, "cooldown expired " + str(guild_cd))```

this is how it's currently implimented

prevents more than 5 requests per second per guild and 50 across discord

[slate swan]

nvm, my brain isnt already working and you'll just kill it

Jeez.

[quaint epoch]

really?

okay fixed

[vale wing]

Hell

[slate swan]

TypeError: fetch_user() got an unexpected keyword argument 'id'```

[quaint epoch]

yeah check the updated code

[slate swan]

Ohhh.

[vale wing]

It's positional

[quaint epoch]

get didn't work

[slate swan]

It works, thank you.

[maiden fable]

user = get_user or fetch_user

[quaint epoch]

@slate swan , hold up

!d disnake.ext.commands.Bot.getch_user

[unkempt canyon]

disnake.ext.commands.Bot.getch\_user

await getch_user(user_id, *, strict=False)```
This function is a [*coroutine*](https://docs.python.org/3/library/asyncio-task.html#coroutine).

there

[maiden fable]

He using disnake?

[slate swan]

What's wrong with my current code?

[maiden fable]

Same

[quaint epoch]

I am?

[quaint epoch]

oh

[maiden fable]

Lol

[slate swan]

discord.py

[quaint epoch]

are you?

[vale wing]

@dull terrace you could just make a dict like {guild_id: datetime}

[slate swan]

Isn't DPY discord.py?

[maiden fable]

Yea

[quaint epoch]

who wants to use 50 list comps and lambdas to solve this problem?

[slate swan]

I am on discord.py.

[dull terrace]

this is pretty old code from when i first started on the bot

[slate swan]

This is a discord bot channel in a python server.

[quaint epoch]

yes

[slate swan]

user = await client.fetch_user(payload.user_id)```
worked

[vale wing]

You mean the thing I suggested is old or your current implementation is

[slate swan]

I know.

Just thought to make it clear.

[quaint epoch]

!d disnake.Guild.getch_member

[unkempt canyon]

disnake.Guild.getch\_member

await getch_member(member_id, *, strict=False)```
This function is a [*coroutine*](https://docs.python.org/3/library/asyncio-task.html#coroutine).

Tries to get a member from the cache with the given ID. If fails, it fetches the member from the API and caches it.

If you want to make a bulk get-or-fetch call, use [`get_or_fetch_members()`](https://docs.disnake.dev/en/latest/api.html#disnake.Guild.get_or_fetch_members "disnake.Guild.get_or_fetch_members").

[quaint epoch]

oh this exists too

[dull terrace]

current implimentation, i was still using strings for datetime back then

[quaint epoch]

oh god

[dull terrace]

i think the best way is per person if they're mashing buttons and then just consider what to do if i do end up getting time outs by discord when it happens

[vale wing]

Discord has protection from rapid buttons clicking on client side

[dull terrace]

so basically don't bother adding anything?

[lofty pecan]

Hello there it's me again hehe, I was wondering if with @commands.cooldown(rate=1, per=30, type=commands.BucketType.user) there was a way to send in the chat that the cooldown has been reached ?

[vale wing]

Just members clicking buttons can't cause your bot to get ratelimited but your bot responding can

[dull terrace]

technically someone could try to hack around the client side and get the bot timed out if they're malicious right?

[vale wing]

By client side I mean discord app

[lofty pecan]

I saw online that python @command_name.error async def command_name_error(ctx, error): if isinstance(error, commands.CommandOnCooldown): em = discord.Embed(title=f"Slow it down bro!",description=f"Try again in {error.retry_after:.2f}s.", color=color_code_here) await ctx.send(embed=em) would be a way but I'm not sure where to add this line of code exactly

[vale wing]

You meant that as well?

[dull terrace]

you mean the discord api or the actual app

[vale wing]

The decorator you mentioned is for commands only

[dull terrace]

because if it's the app then it's definitely open to malicious people

[lofty pecan]

so after my commands.command() and async def command_name(...) I can put this ? with the corresponding command name?

[vale wing]

You can do the cooldown ofc

[pliant gulch]

That’s when your wrappers ratelimit system will become your fallback

[vale wing]

So basically

@commands.command(...)
@commands.cooldown(...)
async def command(...)```

[dull terrace]

but if it ratelimits based on total usage rather than individuals then a person could crash the app for everyone else right

[vale wing]

That's called decorating

[lofty pecan]

yes yes

[vale wing]

And you can add as many decorators as you'd like to but I think they execute from top to bottom

[pliant gulch]

Theoretically yes, but again ratelimits are based on buckets

And the global ratelimit is 50/1s

[vale wing]

And to the lower decorator the result of upper one is parsed

[lofty pecan]

and would there be a decorators to send the cooldown message like You're trying that too fast try again in x second?

or

should I create the async def

and then call the decorator from that command ?!

is that it ?!

[dull terrace]

hmm, still have no idea the best way to approach this

[vale wing]

If the command is decorated with cooldown and the cooldown for the function is hit, it raises CommandOnCooldown exception

[pliant gulch]

And even the possibility of someone modding the client to get rid of the client sided ratelimit is NICHE at best. Not to mention it won’t be easy to bypass it for the gateway

[vale wing]

And you can handle it in your global error handler

[dull terrace]

maybe just guild limits if their use gets insanely high like 25 per second

[pliant gulch]

I’m sure discord has made it so it won’t send to the gateway

[lofty pecan]

[pliant gulch]

This overall is a non-problem

[dull terrace]

so just stop wasting my time on it

[vale wing]

I am not sure where exactly the button blocking for client happens

[dull terrace]

why does owobot and others even have cool downs then?

[pliant gulch]

It happens when you spam the button for a few seconds

[vale wing]

It is either the API request decline or client side blocking

[vale wing]

I didn't mean that

[pliant gulch]

Oh

[dull terrace]

or do they use cooldowns due to responding to message content

[pliant gulch]

Sending messages are 5/5s

If they are large bots you would need to compensate

[vale wing]

I mean what blocks the button clicking

The client or the API

[pliant gulch]

Larger bots will get a higher ratelimit threshold per request as well

[vale wing]

Afaik verified bots' limits are higher by like a lot

[dull terrace]

oh really?

[vale wing]

Lemme check the dev portal rq

[blissful sparrow]

has anyone got a really dumbed down way to convert normal commands in to / commands?

[pliant gulch]

Also not to mention the ratelimit bucket system just makes it harder to exceed your request limits

[blissful sparrow]

I cant get my head around it

Still want to keep the regular prefixed cmds as well though

[carmine pasture]

What coding softwares are recommended for discord bots? Or is there anyway you can get the discord package on visual studio code?

[dull terrace]

hmm i might be overestimating how fast people will click, a quick test shows that i'm around 1 click per second or a little faster while i know exactly what thing i want to do next

[carmine pasture]

I spent 4 hours on a bot on replit got rate limited

[dull terrace]

replit uses shared ips doesn't it?

[blissful sparrow]

[vale wing]

Depends what lib you use

[carmine pasture]

I think so

[blissful sparrow]

dpy 2

[vale wing]

Local IDE

[blissful sparrow]

ive not used any other fork

[vale wing]

Pycharm, vsc, etc.

[carmine pasture]

I use vsc

[slate swan]

yes they do

[blissful sparrow]

same

[vale wing]

Sorry can't help with migrating to slash commands with dpy

[carmine pasture]

Just can't get the discord package

Import discord does not work

[vale wing]

Cause I hate their implementation

@carmine pasture try launching the terminal inside the app and running pip install discord.py

[blissful sparrow]

shame discord-slash not compatible with dpy 2

[vale wing]

Disnake has much better slash commands implementation

[dull terrace]

didn't they drop support for discord-slash recently

[blissful sparrow]

they did

which is ass cos im a noob

[dull terrace]

i switched over to disnake and so far it's been very good

[vale wing]

Same here

[carmine pasture]

Doesn't work. Error message pops up

[boreal ravine]

d.py has something like that

[dull terrace]

discord-slash would give me rate limit errors when i started my bot a bunch

[vale wing]

What error

Command not found?

[blissful sparrow]

I cant understand for the life of me how to implement them into cogs

[vale wing]

Install python interpreter from official site and during installation put on "Add Python to PATH" checkmark

Also install python extension for VSC

[boreal ravine]

https://gist.github.com/AbstractUmbra/a9c188797ae194e592efe05fa129c57f

[carmine pasture]

Lemme see

pip : The term 'pip' is not recognized as the name of a cmdlet, function, script file, or operable program. Check the spelling of
the name, or if a path was included, verify that the path is correct and try again.
At line:1 char:1

• pip install d.py

•   + CategoryInfo          : ObjectNotFound: (pip:String) [], CommandNotFoundException
    + FullyQualifiedErrorId : CommandNotFoundException

thats the error message btw

[vale wing]

Yes command not found

Do the steps I said

[carmine pasture]

alr lemme try that

[vale wing]

https://python.org

[hushed galleon]

in dpy 2.0 you can use the app_commands.command() decorator in your cog and it gets added like regular commands

[boreal ravine]

python -m pip
``` maybe

[dull terrace]

the amount of times i've forgotten to check add python to path when installing on aws

[blissful sparrow]

tryna implement as hybrid though

[carmine pasture]

@boreal ravine Python was not found; run without arguments to install from the Microsoft Store, or disable this shortcut from Settings > Manage App Execution Aliases.

thats the error message

[blissful sparrow]

so prefix works and slash

[carmine pasture]

also i alr have the vsc python extension installed

[blissful sparrow]

im reading the example gist

[lofty pecan]

okay so in order to add a cooldown message if you're on cooldown i've added this line of code but the message is sent 4 times everytime for some reason and I don't understand if it's because the round function tries to round the number too many time:

@commands.Cog.listener()
    async def on_command_error(self, ctx, error):
        if isinstance(error, commands.CommandOnCooldown):
            await ctx.send(f"{round(error.retry_after)} seconds left")```

[vale wing]

Have you installed the interpreter yet

[hushed galleon]

both decorators work in your cog, the gist is just a bit out of date (inheriting from app_commands.Group is optional)

[carmine pasture]

I gotta delete it and install again as I have it installed ages ago but lemme check if u selected it correctly

[vale wing]

Ok

[blissful sparrow]

so for example for my ban command, would I just do ?

@app_commands.command(name='ban', description='Ban a user')
    @commands.command(aliases=['beam'])
    @commands.check_any(
        commands.is_owner(),
        commands.has_permissions(ban_members=True)
    )
    async def ban(self, ctx, member: discord.Member, *, reason=None):
        if reason==None:
            reason=" No reason provided"
        
        embed = discord.Embed(title='![Verify](https://cdn.discordapp.com/emojis/963038610175688734.webp?size=128 "Verify") Successfully Banned!', description=f'{member.name}#{member.discriminator} has been Banned. Reason: `{reason}`.', color=0xff0000)
        embed.set_thumbnail(url=member.avatar)
        embed.set_footer(text="Requested by: {}".format(ctx.author.display_name), icon_url=ctx.author.avatar)
        await ctx.send(embed=embed)
        await ctx.guild.ban(member)

        if member ==None:
            embed = discord.Embed(title='![Invalid](https://cdn.discordapp.com/emojis/963038609181659156.webp?size=128 "Invalid") Error banning member!', description='Please provide a valid @mention/ID!', color=0xff0000)
        embed.set_footer(text="Requested by: {}".format(ctx.author.display_name), icon_url=ctx.author.avatar)
        await ctx.reply(embed=embed)

ignore the indent after app commands

its vsc being annoying

[hushed galleon]

oh no you cant combine both decorators, but you can write two functions and then a shared method they call

[blissful sparrow]

wish I could combine them lol

[odd frigate]

Can I ask a discord.py related question here?

[boreal ravine]

yes

[odd frigate]

Okey

[blissful sparrow]

what if we said no

[odd frigate]

so My discord bot goes offline randomly even tho the machine is online

[blissful sparrow]

how big is the bot

[odd frigate]

tiny

shall i send src

[blissful sparrow]

cos my friend has a verified bot and it was a sharding issue

[odd frigate]

hmm

but since its small

it shouldnt do

Can Anyone help Me With Just filling up some data into a bots code which i find Difficult cauze i am no bot developer. Any help is much appriciated!

[lofty pecan]

how so?

uhh one sec

this is the bots code repository

with which i need help!

    await ctx.channel.send(f"Deleting {channel}!")
    await channel.delete()

[jovial pilot]

what would the command be here

[regal pulsar]

this should work

if its not in a cog remove self

[regal pulsar]

!channel channel-name

[vagrant brook]

if its not in a cog then @commands.command() does nothing

[regal pulsar]

yes it does

[lofty pecan]

still having trouble with that, idk why it sends the message multiple times

[regal pulsar]

you just have to add the command manually then

[real cedar]

its via sql db

[regal pulsar]

@commands.command()
@commands.has_permissions(manage_channels=True)
async def channel(ctx: commands.Context, channel: disnake.TextChannel):
    await ctx.channel.send(f"Deleting {channel}!")

bot.add_command(channel)

[lofty pecan]

I use json atm so I can't help with that

[regal pulsar]

like so

[regal pulsar]

@vagrant brook

[blissful sparrow]

sqlite or an sql server?

[real cedar]

ohk

yeah ik

just saying you can 🤷‍♂️

would anyone know ?

[regal pulsar]

what

are you using cogs

[lofty pecan]

then define the channel?

[blissful sparrow]

can someone explain the sub command like wtf is that

[regal pulsar]

or not

[boreal ravine]

Advanced Racist Leg, nah im just joking arl is @vast gale

[blissful sparrow]

Hello hello, I have a small issue with a command to display the cooldown it might have, everytime, the bot sends the message several time (4 times in a row) and I have no idea why it does that, here is the problematic code:

@commands.Cog.listener()
    async def on_command_error(self, ctx, error):
        if isinstance(error, commands.CommandOnCooldown):

            await ctx.send(embed=embed)```

maybe it has to do with the fact that in my cog 4 commands uses a cooldown

[blissful sparrow]

is it possible to restrict certain drop downs to certain perms?

[lofty pecan]

but it doesn't make sense because another cog has 3 commands and has the same issue

[lofty pecan]

idk what that means mate

[blissful sparrow]

Lets say I have a help command that uses drop downs

For the admin commands I want the drop down to be restricted to admins only

[lofty pecan]

what is drop downs

for some reason the function is being called 4 times

[lofty pecan]

ye

Idk why

[maiden fable]

can u show me the command due to which it is happening?

[lofty pecan]

all of them

they all have @commands.cooldown(rate=1, per=60, type=commands.BucketType.user)

[maiden fable]

Weirdddddd

[lofty pecan]

with a per depending on the command

[maiden fable]

Hm that shouldn't really be an issue

[slate swan]

https://github.com/Pycord-Development/pycord/blob/master/examples/app_commands/slash_basic.py

[lofty pecan]

yeah of course

[maiden fable]

what events do u have?

[frozen patio]

@bot.slash_command(title="Hello!", description="Hi!")
async def hello_cmd(inter: Interaction):
    await inter.send("Hello there!")

I think this is right

[lofty pecan]

events ?

[frozen patio]

I do not make slash much

[lofty pecan]

huh wait

[maiden fable]

Yea

Its not a command issue but one with the events prolly

[fallow mauve]

Ok so i wanna make a command that when used with a word or phrase after it will put the word or phrase into a json file, and then another that will remove a specific word or phrase from in the json file, can someone explain this to me?

[lofty pecan]

I have on_ready, on_guild_join and on_guild_remove

[maiden fable]

Only?

[lofty pecan]

ye

[maiden fable]

What the

Ha

[surreal ruin]

please tell me what i have to put in it i fork a code

[maiden fable]

He is on dpy

[lofty pecan]

mmh ?

[maiden fable]

Not u, Zaidorox

[lofty pecan]

ha oke

[frozen patio]

Hmm, you need disnake or nextcord

[surreal ruin]

please some one tell me

[frozen patio]

d.py does not have slash

Yeah, or nextcord

Doesn't matter

[maiden fable]

Has the problem been there since the start?

[lofty pecan]

I just added the command to display the cooldown

[maiden fable]

Show

[lofty pecan]

so since I added it yes

[rustic sky]

hello there i just need to use data from a json file but python cant seem to access it though the file exists, any clue why?

[frozen patio]

you have discord somewhere

you need to change it to disnake

[maiden fable]

No like, the command code

[rustic sky]

not to mention i print the path and it seems to be correct as i included the os.path.exists verify method to ensure the path exists

[lofty pecan]

ho

[maiden fable]

can u print os.listdir()

[lofty pecan]

@commands.command()
    @commands.cooldown(rate=1, per=30, type=commands.BucketType.user)
    async def ocrandom(self, ctx):
        """ Gives the description of a random OC"""
        id = str(ctx.guild.id)
            
        file_name = random.choice(os.listdir(f'database\{id}'))
        Content = fetch(f'database\{id}\{file_name[:-5]}')

        user = await self.bot.fetch_user(int(file_name[:-5]))

        Key = random.choice(list(Content))    
        character = Content[Key]
        age = character['age']
        gender = character['gender']
        hex = character['hex']
        Url = character['picture']
        desc = character['description']
        universe = character['universe']

        embed = discord.Embed(title=Key, color=int(hex,0), description=desc)
        embed.set_thumbnail(url=Url)
        embed.add_field(name="Age", value=age)
        embed.add_field(name="Gender", value=gender)
        embed.add_field(name="Universe", value=universe)
        embed.add_field(name="Creator", value=user)
        await ctx.send(embed=embed)```

[maiden fable]

???

[frozen patio]

Can't just pass in user in the async def

Go to the dev portal and enable intents

Did you enable the application_commands scope when you invited the bot?

Show me your code

[rustic sky]

it prints out the directories above because im not working in the same directory but i've fixed this using this method and when i print it, it returns the correct directory of the file: half_path_name = python if os.path.exists(str(Path(__file__).parent.resolve()) + "/config.json"):

[maiden fable]

Ah cool

[frozen patio]

I think you need to do

from disnake.ext import commands

[rustic sky]

Here is the code that's sending me an error when i try to open using the "with open" methodpython print(str(Path(__file__).parent.resolve()) + "/config.json") if os.path.exists(str(Path(__file__).parent.resolve()) + "/config.json"): with open("./config.json") as file: config_data = json.load(file) else: config_template = {"discord_token": ""} with open(str(Path(__file__).parent.resolve()) + "/config.json", "w+") as file: json.dump(config_template, file)

[frozen patio]

And you need to put the commands.Bot above the 2 intent lines

[maiden fable]

Error?

[slate swan]

Which ide u use??

[lofty pecan]

mmmh

[rustic sky]

FileNotFoundError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: './config.json'

[maiden fable]

Ah that one

Thought there was a different error

[frozen patio]

Just move the 2 intent lines below the client = commands.Bot line

[rustic sky]

no just that one but idk how to fix it tho

[frozen patio]

Code please?

[slate swan]

Go down

[maiden fable]

@rustic sky what is it printing?

[slate swan]

The intents

[frozen patio]

You need to add the intent lines, or remove intents=intents

No

[slate swan]

??

[rustic sky]

the print statement is just the path of config.json but a little modified so i can access the config.json no matter which dir im in

[frozen patio]

Like this

[maiden fable]

But it isn't working, soooo

[frozen patio]

Do not worry about that

Colors do not matter

[rustic sky]

i just dont know why it doesnt recognize the ./config.json statement

[slate swan]

It's replit

Or?..

[frozen patio]

No I use discord white cause ye keeps me awake

[slate swan]

Tf

[frozen patio]

But that is neither here or there

Yes

[slate swan]

Not good for eyes 👀

..

[frozen patio]

is message_content an intent?

[slate swan]

Waaa

[maiden fable]

!d disnake.Intents.message_content

[unkempt canyon]

disnake.Intents.message\_content

Whether messages will have access to message content.

This applies to the following fields on Message instances...

[maiden fable]

(:

[steady flume]

how to fix that ? (V2)

[winged bone]

why should he define his intents after the bot? This way he can't pass it to the bots constructor like disnake.Bot(intents=intents)

[paper sluice]

await it

[frozen patio]

I do not use disnake 👀

[winged bone]

same for discord.py or the forks

that was already good, you still need to pass intents=intents to the Bot constructor

[frozen patio]

Oh yeah, you do need to add that 😐

[blissful sparrow]

https://caught-lackin-in-8k-by-cyberghost.cf/ZUc4bMcG

[rustic sky]

@maiden fable thanks for your help man i finally found what caused the error

[blissful sparrow]

whys it saying this

its defined as a subclass

[maiden fable]

What? (I didn't really help tho haha)

[winged bone]

disnake.Bot(..., intents=intents, ...)
One thing tho, you don´t even need message_content for slash commands

[carmine pasture]

How do you guys type code like that on discord

[winged bone]

!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.

[blissful sparrow]

https://paste.pythondiscord.com/ralimiduki

[carmine pasture]

Alr

[rustic sky]

idk i just appreciate the time you spent

[maiden fable]

What caused the error tho

[carmine pasture]

BTW thanks a lot I got it fixed now

[frozen patio]

then change bot to client

[blissful sparrow]

👍

[rustic sky]

i copied the ./config.json statement from a video but it worked in the video because it was in the cwd (which is not my case) so i just used the same method to open the file as for the others and it managed to locate and it worked

pretty disappointing

[winged bone]

yeah you called it client by doing client = ...

[frozen patio]

👀

That is how I define slash commands

And it works

[blissful sparrow]

https://paste.pythondiscord.com/ralimiduki halp

[frozen patio]

You need to import interaction

[sharp snow]

Hello, does anyone know how I can hide cogs from my bot's help page?

[blissful sparrow]

select not defined

even tho it is?

[steady flume]

like this ?

[maiden fable]

Ah cool

[winged bone]

i think for disnake its disnake.ApplicationCommandInteraction

[frozen patio]

Oh yeah!

As you can see I do not use the library much xD

[boreal ravine]

@slate swan wanna hear a fact?

[sharp snow]

Anyone please?

[slate swan]

Yes?

[blissful sparrow]

Make custom help command

[slate swan]

.

[sick birch]

A custom help command gives you a lot of control and customization, so look into that as CyberGhost suggested

[sharp snow]

Hmm, actually I was hoping for a solution that would work with the default help command, anyways, I guess it's time to switch over. Thanks.

[blissful sparrow]

its also very aesthetically pleasing

well to me anyways XD

[lofty pecan]

Hello hello, I have a small issue with a command to display the cooldown it might have, everytime, the bot sends the message several time (4 times in a row) and I have no idea why it does that, here is the problematic code:

@commands.Cog.listener()
    async def on_command_error(self, ctx, error):
        if isinstance(error, commands.CommandOnCooldown):
            retry = error.retry_after
            remaining_time = str(datetime.timedelta(seconds=int(retry)))
            embed = discord.Embed(title=":clock1: Slow Down!!", description=f'{ctx.author.mention}, you can use this command again in ' + str(remaining_time), color=0xE74C3C)
            await ctx.send(embed=embed)``` **Please could anyone help, I seriously don't understand what's happening** ![yahiaBOOHOO](https://cdn.discordapp.com/emojis/801197427629359114.webp?size=128 "yahiaBOOHOO")

[boreal ravine]

class MyCog(Cog, command_attrs={"hidden": True}):
    ...

[slate swan]

..

[sick birch]

The default help command can also be customized by subclassing

[boreal ravine]

the sun is gonna explode somewhere around the year 275000

[blissful sparrow]

https://caught-lackin-in-8k-by-cyberghost.cf/X9Vg7iWC

https://paste.pythondiscord.com/vawaqibitu

[slate swan]

[sharp snow]

I see, I don't exactly know what subclassing is (sorry, a little new to python here). But I'll look into it, once again thanks 🙃

[blissful sparrow]

make classes within classes

[lofty pecan]

I'm seriously considering opening a help request in a help channel at that point because it's been lile the 5 times I ask and no-one seems to understand the problem 🥺

[slate swan]

Adding emoji to ur msg is more attractive

[boreal ravine]

possibly multiple instances of your bot sre running

[lofty pecan]

no because that issues happens only with that cooldown message sending methods

[blissful sparrow]

thats why shutdown command pog

[lofty pecan]

the other commands work just fine

[sharp snow]

Thanks, I'll try this out

[blissful sparrow]

Ive tried to subclass the drop down menus in the help cog but it cant find what select and selectview are
https://paste.pythondiscord.com/vawaqibitu

[boreal ravine]

self.Select

the class is inside a class so you have to use self to access it

[sharp snow]

It works, tysm

[blissful sparrow]

ah I see, so why does it not work when I do it here:

@commands.command()
    async def help(ctx):
        await ctx.send("Help Menu!",view=self.SelectView())

[lofty pecan]

Sorry to bother you @sick birch but you were here a moment ago and you seem knowledgable, so would you have an issue of why this thing makes my bot send the same message 4 times in a row

here is an example

[boreal ravine]

can you add a return statement below the send method

[paper sluice]

do u have 4 instances of the bot running?

[lofty pecan]

no just one lol

[boreal ravine]

what doesn't work?

[lofty pecan]

inside or outisde the indentation block of if?

[boreal ravine]

inside

[blissful sparrow]

it says self not defined
https://caught-lackin-in-8k-by-cyberghost.cf/NtAA80tc

[lofty pecan]

nope doesn't work

[blissful sparrow]

of wait

i need to add self, ctx

[boreal ravine]

add self in the commsnds parameters

[blissful sparrow]

Thanks, lets see if it replies with something now

https://caught-lackin-in-8k-by-cyberghost.cf/N3YK4rDz

guess not

[boreal ravine]

how about you move the classes outside the cog

[blissful sparrow]

I was thinking I should do that tbh

[lofty pecan]

no otherwise I think it would make every commands run 4 times

[boreal ravine]

hm idk then

[paper sluice]

hmm yea, i didnt notice the first command you ran

[lofty pecan]

truly odd

[boreal ravine]

you could try asking in the d.py server, there are lots of knowledgable helpers there

[lofty pecan]

what is that

wait discord py

[boreal ravine]

https://discord.gg/dpy

[boreal ravine]

yea

[blissful sparrow]

https://caught-lackin-in-8k-by-cyberghost.cf/7eDNtyWa

Yikes

[boreal ravine]

Defer it ig

[blissful sparrow]

?

oh wait ik what I did

nvm still failed

[slate swan]

thats discord.py's discord server

[lofty pecan]

yes

indeed

[lofty pecan]

Because I still have the same issue for hours and I have 0 idea why

[slate swan]

lemme see if I can help

[lofty pecan]

🥺

[slate swan]

try

return await ctx.send(embed=embed)```
~~even though I know it wont be much difference~~

or simply reset your bot's token

[lofty pecan]

welp nope nothing

[lofty pecan]

you think that might be the issue ?

it's weird that it does that only for this cogs listener and not the commands

[umbral aspen]

Am I able to host my bot with a domain that I own?

[maiden fable]

@lofty pecan did u post the code for the cooldown command (which caused the issue?)

[lofty pecan]

yes

[maiden fable]

Might have missed that

[lofty pecan]

that litteraly what I sent lol

[lofty pecan]

this is exactly that

[maiden fable]

Oh

Eh

Shouldn't really happen

[lofty pecan]

ye

[slate swan]

idk i just better not come here, I'm like half alive today

[maiden fable]

@lofty pecan can u try printing it?

Does it print 4 times?

It should print 4 times but eh

[lofty pecan]

lmao

[lofty pecan]

it send 4 times

[maiden fable]

And how many times does it respond to a command?

Like when u invoke a command, how many times does it send the message

[lofty pecan]

4 times

[maiden fable]

Hm command response is only once

Meaning there is only one instance of bot running

[lofty pecan]

reseting the token did nothing

[maiden fable]

Eh, how big is the code?

The whole code

[slate swan]

yo can someone make me a code that when a user joins, it changes their username automatically -(pls send code in dms, i'll reward you)

[lofty pecan]

127 lines for that cog

[maiden fable]

Hm, is the code too big to share?

[lofty pecan]

I think so

the code works fine

only that cooldown part is buggy

[maiden fable]

Well rn I am just shooting arrows in the dark, cannot really do anything without seeing all the code

[lofty pecan]

lmao

[slate swan]

Lol

[lofty pecan]

I'm telling you, the code works fine, adding this command of cooldown to display how much time there is left is the problem

[maiden fable]

!d discord.on_member_join

[unkempt canyon]

discord.on\_member\_join

discord.on_member_join(member)``````py

discord.on_member_remove(member)```
Called when a [`Member`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/api.html#discord.Member "discord.Member") join or leaves a [`Guild`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/api.html#discord.Guild "discord.Guild").

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

[lofty pecan]

I didn't have that problem before

[maiden fable]

@bot.event
async def on_member_join(mem):
    await mem.edit(nick="Welcome bro")

so i am trying to host my bot on railway and the logs are as follows:

If your code is too long to fit in a codeblock in discord, you can paste your code here:
https://paste.pythondiscord.com/

After pasting your code, save it by clicking the floppy disk icon in the top right, or by typing ctrl + S. After doing that, the URL should change. Copy the URL and post it here so others can see it.

[slate swan]

do you have many instances running of your bot?

[lofty pecan]

no

[slate swan]

damn

[lofty pecan]

one on my laptop

[minor totem]

If you shut down your bot, how many times does it send (0 right)?

[cosmic agate]

wth

[lofty pecan]

[cosmic agate]

pls?

[lofty pecan]

can't help ya mate sorry

[maiden fable]

I also thought he had multiple instances, but there is only one response to commands

[lofty pecan]

yeah

[cosmic agate]

👍🏼

[minor totem]

@lofty pecan do you have this cooldown code for multiple commands?

[lofty pecan]

yes

[slate swan]

its probably that

[minor totem]

Let me guess, 4 commands? 😅

[lofty pecan]

each cogs, I just thought maybe that would be the issue

[slate swan]

auto username?

[maiden fable]

Oh wait 😐

[lofty pecan]

one stuff like that in each cog

thats all

[maiden fable]

@lofty pecan how many commands have a cooldown?

[lofty pecan]

that's the thing

[minor totem]

The event listener you register is global, it applies to all commands once the cog is loaded

[slate swan]

any command thats on cooldown will trigger the error handler

[lofty pecan]

so, 4 commands in this cogs, BUT in another cog only 3 have a cooldown and the cooldown error embed is triggered 4 times as well

[slate swan]

show ss

[minor totem]

How many cogs do you have?

[blissful sparrow]

Ngl they should allow threads here

[slate swan]

they shouldnt

what are they even gonna be about? libs?

[lofty pecan]

4 have the cooldown thingy

[sick birch]

We are discussing it in internal channels

[maiden fable]

@lofty pecan can u add the command name to the cooldown embed to see for which command its being called?

[lofty pecan]

ho yeah !

how?

[minor totem]

Yes, you should only have one

[lofty pecan]

command.name ?

[maiden fable]

ctx.command.name

[minor totem]

Huh? They're all the same

[maiden fable]

Wym

[slate swan]

^

[slate swan]

seems weird

how would the error get triggered 4 times?

[minor totem]

There are 4 error handlers, one for each cog, yet they apply to the whole bot. What happens, is that they all get triggered because each error hanlder (as I said) applies globally

[minor totem]

Remove 3 of them, you should only have one.

[maiden fable]

Ah, so he has different eh's for each cog?

[lofty pecan]

one is enough for all the cogs ?

[maiden fable]

Who would have known 😔

[slate swan]

on_command_error is a global error handler for all commands

[maiden fable]

Yes @lofty pecan

[lofty pecan]

ho really ?!

[minor totem]

Yep, that's how error handlers work. I recommend placing it somewhere else though

[slate swan]

all commands that are registered can trigger it.

[lofty pecan]

then !

in the events.py file !

[slate swan]

!d discord.discord.ext.commands.on_command_error

[unkempt canyon]

discord.discord.ext.commands.on\_command\_error

discord.ext.commands.on_command_error(ctx, error)```
An error handler that is called when an error is raised inside a command either through user input error, check failure, or an error in your own code.

A default one is provided ([`Bot.on_command_error()`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.Bot.on_command_error "discord.ext.commands.Bot.on_command_error")).

[lofty pecan]

Mentlegen, your solution was a success

Thanks a lot, I hesitated at first to put it there but yeah that's actually what I should have done

[regal pulsar]

how do i add another argument to a callback func

[lofty pecan]

thanks a lot @minor totem !

[regal pulsar]

with select menus (disnake.py)

async def callback(interaction: disnake.Interaction, total):

        total += 1
        dict[select.values[0]] += 1

        dict_profile = dict[select.values[0]]

        embed = disnake.Embed(title=question, color=ORANGE)

        for ch in choices:
            embed.add_field(name=f"{ch}:    ", value=f"{(dict_profile * 100) // len(choices)}%", inline=False)

        await msg.edit(embed=embed)

    select.callback = callback
    view = View()
    view.add_item(select)
    msg = await ctx.channel.send(embed=embed, view=view)

[slate swan]

can it?

[minor totem]

Why do you want to do that?

[regal pulsar]

im trying to make a poll command with select menus

[slate swan]

just pass the argument to the View and then pass it to the menu

[regal pulsar]

looks like this

[minor totem]

Right, but what do you want that argument to be?

[regal pulsar]

basically i need the total number of times options have been selected
