[regal pulsar]

to get a %

[slate swan]

why not just use buttons?

[minor totem]

Then you need to store that!

[regal pulsar]

just wanted to try it with select menus

[slate swan]

ah

[regal pulsar]

yeah, with total

i need to pass that into my callback

[slate swan]

^

[minor totem]

Isn't it a closure?

[regal pulsar]

wdym

[slate swan]

you use a view to add the menu and then you send the view no?

[regal pulsar]

yeah

[slate swan]

well then just make the class accept the argument total

[regal pulsar]

what

im not using a class

[slate swan]

what

[minor totem]

The view is built during runtime 🙂

[regal pulsar]

@bot.command()
async def poll(ctx: commands.Context, *, options: str):

    dict = {}
    total = 0

    list_ch = options.split("/")
    question = list_ch[0]
    list_ch.remove(question)
    question = question.replace("-", " ")
    choices = list_ch[0].split(",")

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

    for ch in choices:
        embed.add_field(name=f"{ch}: ", value=f"{0}%", inline=False)
        dict.update({ch: 0})

    option_list = []

    select = Select(
        placeholder="Choose An Option",
        options=option_list,
    )

    for op in choices:
        option_list.append(SelectOption(label=op, value=op))

    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]

yes

[regal pulsar]

this command is just for me to learn how select menus work ;)

[minor totem]

What you should do, is not add an argument to the callback, because you can't tell disnake to keep calling it with the same variable, rather you should define total inside of poll() then change it inside of callback().

[regal pulsar]

total is defined under poll()

im not sure why the undefined error shows up

[slate swan]

im not even sure how this would be done. since i havent even used dropdowns

[minor totem]

Ah, nice, yeah you need to add nonlocal total

[regal pulsar]

whats that

[minor totem]

It tells Python that when you modify total it isn't a new variable, rather it is the same as the total you define in poll()

[regal pulsar]

i see

ill try it

oh it works

thanks :)

[frozen patio]

Can someone help me with this error?

I am trying to make if the amount is greater of your balance you cannot deposit it.

[jolly estuary]

Can someone help me please? I want to code a discord bot where you can make bets for footballgames or something like that… and if its possible also with an oen custom money system

[slate swan]

youre trying to do str > int

[frozen patio]

Yes

[slate swan]

make amount an int

[spring flax]

can anyone explain why I get this error Ignoring exception in command help: Traceback (most recent call last): File "C:\Users\tenuk\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python310\lib\site-packages\disnake\ext\commands\core.py", line 169, in wrapped ret = await coro(*args, **kwargs) File "C:\Users\tenuk\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python310\lib\site-packages\disnake\ext\commands\help.py", line 848, in command_callback return await self.send_error_message(string) File "C:\Users\tenuk\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python310\lib\site-packages\disnake\ext\commands\help.py", line 637, in send_error_message await destination.send(error) File "C:\Users\tenuk\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python310\lib\site-packages\disnake\abc.py", line 1504, in send data = await state.http.send_message( File "C:\Users\tenuk\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python310\lib\site-packages\disnake\http.py", line 420, in request raise HTTPException(response, data) disnake.errors.HTTPException: 400 Bad Request (error code: 50006): Cannot send an empty message

Hmm Okay

[spring flax]

It's the command_not_found that seems to be raising the error

[dull terrace]

It's possible

[jolly estuary]

Can you send me an example or sometjing like that?

Or can you explain me this

[frozen patio]

@slate swan Where would I convert to an int?

[dull terrace]

Not really. You just need to learn to code in python and learn discords API...

[spring flax]

!e ```py
x = "5"
print(int(x))

[unkempt canyon]

@spring flax :white_check_mark: Your eval job has completed with return code 0.

5

[jolly estuary]

Any tutorials on yt ?

Or whats the keyword for this?

[frozen patio]

I am not printing anything...

[dull terrace]

Plenty, just search for discord bot tutorial python

[frozen patio]

Also

My amount is an int...

[spring flax]

so...?

[spring flax]

i just showed you that I made x an int when it was a string

[slate swan]

!e print(type(float("nan")))

😳

[spring flax]

it's saying bal[0] is a string.

[unkempt canyon]

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

<class 'float'>

[slate swan]

😳

[spring flax]

i'm sorry not sure where thsi came from lol

[slate swan]

i just did it because its quite interesting

[frozen patio]

I converted the str to an int, do I need to put that in another if statement

Nvm I fixed it

Just indented 1 line too far 😶

[slate swan]

How do i get a code thats with letters AND numbers? Ive got this so far:

numbergen = ''.join(random.choice([chr(i) for i in range(ord('a'),ord('z'))]) for _ in range```

[slate swan]

wdym may i get an example?

[heady sluice]

#python-discussion ?

[slate swan]

well, when i run the code ive sent a get a randomly generated code, like wjsvf and i want to get a code with letter aswell as numbers

[slate swan]

this is for my disord bot

[slate swan]

so random letters and numbers?

yes

[heady sluice]

do you think my carpenter can fix my toaster

[slate swan]

yes.

[heady sluice]

ok then

[slate swan]

!e

print((lambda l:__import__('secrets').token_urlsafe(l))(9))

[unkempt canyon]

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

46_XDCobs4SJ

[heady sluice]

feel free to ask this here

🙂

[slate swan]

l is the length of the string

that works, thanks

💜

[exotic maple]

Hi

I need help, with slash commands. How do i make it so that only the author can view the bot response?

[slate swan]

send an ephemeral message

[thick basin]

Its not exactly related to dpy but ig you all use ec2 windows t2micro for hosting

[exotic maple]

Thank you.

[slate swan]

yw

[slate swan]

i edit 1 to change the length of the string?

[exotic maple]

Do i just do ephemeral=True?

[slate swan]

yes token_urlsafe takes a parameter which is the strings length

[thick basin]

ye

[slate swan]

in the .send coroutine yes

[slate swan]

alright, thanks

yw

[vale wing]

Ubuntu is better

[slate swan]

!d secrets.token_urlsafe @slate swan

[vale wing]

Idk at what terms but yes

[unkempt canyon]

secrets.token\_urlsafe

secrets.token_urlsafe([nbytes=None])```
Return a random URL-safe text string, containing *nbytes* random bytes. The text is Base64 encoded, so on average each byte results in approximately 1.3 characters. If *nbytes* is `None` or not supplied, a reasonable default is used.

```py
>>> token_urlsafe(16)  
'Drmhze6EPcv0fN_81Bj-nA'

[exotic maple]

?

[slate swan]

great, ty

[vale wing]

You can't send an ephemeral message through non interaction

[slate swan]

where is InteractionContext from?

[exotic maple]

I dont even know

let me check

[thick basin]

but we can remotely access that desktop and run the bot file or something right?

[vale wing]

We can't remotely access the desktop

We only have SSH

[thick basin]

alr so someone told me wrong

ty i will try ubuntu then

[vale wing]

Ok gl with it

Setup guide if ya want https://gist.github.com/Exenifix/a8aa68a4976389757ff3121e6daadcf6

[thick basin]

and also is commands.is_owner() giving you all some error?

[vale wing]

Yes

!d discord.ext.commands.NotOwner

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ext.commands.NotOwner

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

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

[exotic maple]

I checked through, i dont see it anywhere

[slate swan]

https://github.com/DisnakeDev/disnake/blob/master/disnake/ext/commands/core.py#L2106-L2121

yes it would raise the error given above

[thick basin]

i am using dpy

[slate swan]

doesnt matter

still samething

https://github.com/Rapptz/discord.py/blob/master/discord/ext/commands/core.py#L2227-L2242

just annotations are different

[thick basin]

ahh ty

[pliant gulch]

Should've been typehinted using ParamSpec since this is a decorator

[slate swan]

is there a way to send a timestamp that each user sees as there time on their discord account?

[slate swan]

yw

[slate swan]

whats ParamSpec?

like the class what is it used for

[pliant gulch]

https://peps.python.org/pep-0612/

[slate swan]

thx

thats pretty useful ngl

[exotic maple]

How do i fix?

TypeError: InteractionContext.send() got an unexpected keyword argument 'ephemeral'

[cloud dawn]

Code?

[exotic maple]

await ctx.send("I have sent your confession", ephemeral=True)

When i add the epheremeral=True, that's the only time it bugs

[cloud dawn]

What library?

[exotic maple]

What? I have discord-slash for my modules?

import discord
from discord import guild
import datetime
from googletrans import Translator
from discord_slash import SlashCommand

@cloud dawn

[tidal hawk]

send a code of whole command block

[slate swan]

should i use json or sql as db

im thinking sql right

[tidal hawk]

sql

[slate swan]

it better?

[cloud dawn]

json is not a database.

[slate swan]

ik im debating with my friend

[tidal hawk]

100x

[slate swan]

he said just use json

[tidal hawk]

Me dumbass used json as db first time

Biggest head ache of my life

[cloud dawn]

💀

json is meant to be a fixed set of data not meant to write to.

[slate swan]

no

[cloud dawn]

Well he obviously has never coded a Discord bot 😂

I think they are called hidden and not ephemeral.

Not sure tough, if that won't work idk since this lib is undocumented.

[slate swan]

both of them arent dbs

[exotic maple]

Let me try

[cloud dawn]

I mean you can use pure SQL to store data.

[tidal hawk]

🤓

[exotic maple]

@cloud dawn it works, thanks

[slate swan]

one is for formatting data and the other is a query language

[cloud dawn]

You can store entire python onelines inside a db and execute the script lmao

[slate swan]

what

[cloud dawn]

I once coded a website inside sql

[slate swan]

what does this have to do with this conversation?

[cloud dawn]

That anything is possible.

[slate swan]

ok?

[cloud dawn]

Anyhow, how should i go about remaking cogs but for Client hmm

[mortal dove]

How do I make slash commands with a discord.py 2.0.0a bot?

[exotic maple]

So it could be

Hello my name is "word" yea

Not only the word

[pliant gulch]

Cogs are just attachable classes that implement teardown & setup methods. You can just imagine, load_extensions to import the class, then when calling setup globally it will iterate through all the methods using a metaclass, then attaching the commands & events to the client specified. You can do this pretty easily if that helps explaining it at all

[mortal dove]

@exotic maple I don't want to be annoying but you seem to have figured out slash commands, would you mind guiding me to some resources about how to set that up?

[pliant gulch]

Specifically, that is the reason why you have to use different decorators for registering events & commands, E.g @commands.commands() and @commands.Cog.listener all the decorator simply does is mark the function as either an event or a command, which then the metaclass iteration will look for

[slate swan]

just check out the repos examples

so you dont need to use that awful lib

[exotic maple]

I could recommend you a video which helped me while i was a beginner

[mortal dove]

Sure :)

[mortal dove]

I did, but I didn't see any for slash commands.

[slate swan]

just read the gist danny sent

[pliant gulch]

!e ```py
class FooMeta(type):

def __new__(cls: type["FooMeta"], name: str, bases: tuple[type["Any"], ...], attrs: dict["Any", "Any"]) -> "FooMeta":

    for name, value in attrs.items():
        print(name, value)

    return super().__new__(cls, name, bases, attrs)

class Foo(metaclass=FooMeta):
async def my_command(self) -> None: ...

[unkempt canyon]

@pliant gulch :white_check_mark: Your eval job has completed with return code 0.

001 | __module__ __main__
002 | __qualname__ Foo
003 | my_command <function Foo.my_command at 0x7f0e04228ca0>

[pliant gulch]

Here you can see how the metaclass would work

All you need to do now is make a decorator which wraps the method into a "marker" for your metaclass to check for

Then inject that data to your client which is simply as hell

[slate swan]

thats pretty cool

[pliant gulch]

It's a somewhat niche thing overal in python though

You'd rarely need something like this

[exotic maple]

How do i make it,

If a specific word is spotted in a users argument of a slash command

[slate swan]

https://gist.github.com/Rapptz/c4324f17a80c94776832430007ad40e6 @mortal dove

[mortal dove]

ty ^-^

[slate swan]

👍

[exotic maple]

@slate swan do you know?

Because "is in" isnt an operator

[slate swan]

just use an if statement?

[old crescent]

so im following the discord.py walkthrough that's the first pinned, and when i use the test bot script that is shown in the link i'll attach, i get a
"line 6, in <module> intents.message_content = True
attributeError: 'Intents' object has no attribute 'message_content'" error

the import is fine but that is causing an error, any idea why?
https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/quickstart.html#a*minimal*bot

[slate swan]

if argument in ...:?

[exotic maple]

Yea i have if confession == libary:, but it only detects it if i only have one word in the argument which is that word in libary

[slate swan]

are you using dpy 2.0?

[slate swan]

use the in statement?

6.10.2. Membership test operations

The operators in and not in test for membership. x in s evaluates to True if x is a member of s, and False otherwise. x not in s returns the negation of x in s. All built-in sequences and set types support this as well as dictionary, for which in tests whether the dictionary has a given key. For container types such as list, tuple, set, frozenset, dict, or collections.deque, the expression x in y is equivalent to any(x is e or x == e for e in y).

For the string and bytes types, x in y is True if and only if x is a substring of y. An equivalent test is y.find(x) != -1. Empty strings are always considered to be a substring of any other string, so "" in "abc" will return True.

[old crescent]

probably not, i used the install line
py -3 -m pip install -U discord.py

[slate swan]

no, thats 1.7.3 you would need to install the master branch

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

[old crescent]

is there a more updated tutorial than this one then? or can i follow that tutorial with the install link u just sent

[slate swan]

just use the command given, you need git btw

[old crescent]

ill have to install git, do i just install all of git or is there something specific i need

[slate swan]

https://github.com/git-guides/install-git#:~:text=To install Git%2C run the,installation by typing%3A git version .

TypeError: 'in <string>' requires string as left operand, not tuple Thats my issue

Idk how to fix

And if i do == instead of in im back at square one

How to fix?

Do I put it as str?

[slate swan]

bro the error says it all

youre saying if tuple in a string

it must be if string in tuple

[exotic maple]

But i want it to detect if theres one of the multiple words in the string

[slate swan]

!e

is what im saying?

[unkempt canyon]

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

[exotic maple]

Yea..

But

With the "if 1"

I have a this.

`libary = ("word_1", "word_2")

async def confess(ctx, *,confession=None):

if libary in confession:`

Thats just some chunks of the code btw

[slate swan]

bro

[pliant gulch]

Minor optimisation but if it's constant and non repeating, making it a set would be way way faster

[slate swan]

its an example bro

[exotic maple]

You are saying "if 1"

I dont want just ONE value

I have a list of values

[slate swan]

bro

!d if

[unkempt canyon]

if

8.1. The if statement

The if statement is used for conditional execution:

if_stmt ::=  "if" assignment_expression ":" suite
             ("elif" assignment_expression ":" suite)*
             ["else" ":" suite]
``` It selects exactly one of the suites by evaluating the expressions one by one until one is found to be true (see section [Boolean operations](https://docs.python.org/3/reference/expressions.html#booleans) for the definition of true and false); then that suite is executed (and no other part of the [`if`](https://docs.python.org/3/reference/compound_stmts.html#if) statement is executed or evaluated). If all expressions are false, the suite of the [`else`](https://docs.python.org/3/reference/compound_stmts.html#else) clause, if present, is executed.

hmmm nice

[exotic maple]

youre not answering my question tho

[slate swan]

bro

[old crescent]

should i leave all of the settings default since i dont really know what im doing

[exotic maple]

`libary = ("word_one", "word_two", "word_three")

@slash.slash()
async def confess(ctx, *,confession=None):
if ctx.author.name in blacklist:
await ctx.reply("You are blacklisted from using commands due to inappropriate usage", hidden=True)
await ctx.author.send("You are blacklisted from using commands due to inappropriate usage")

await ctx.reply("Don't use this bot for inappropriate use. Next time you do this, it will be logged", hidden=True)
await ctx.author.send("You are at risk of being blacklisted from confession commands, warning one")`

IF ONE OF THE WORDS IN THE__LIBARY__ VARIABLE is in the argument CONFESSION, it replys that message and returns @slate swan

[slate swan]

bro i already answered you.

[exotic maple]

bro u didnt

[cloud dawn]

Still i need to make it for Client rn

[exotic maple]

If a user enters one of the words in the libary variable, it will do what i programmed

[slate swan]

read my messages in the top because i will not repeat myself or my points. you already have been answered.

[exotic maple]

No.. dude you never answered me in a way that it can help

[pliant gulch]

@cloud dawn

Read my above explainations as well for more insight

[slate swan]

how is it faster? is it related to native C?

[pliant gulch]

set.__contains__ is O(1)

hash lookup

[slate swan]

i gaved examples docs and explanations how?

[slate swan]

ah ic

thanks!

[exotic maple]

Yes and i read all of them fine, i go back to try and use it for my problem but i still cant find out how

I sent you my code and im asking you if theres something wrong with it?

[jovial pilot]

how do i detect if a user has been banned

[cloud dawn]

Idk if this would be the best solution, since i need to make it custom anyways. Any thoughts on iterating trough my ext folder then looks for any class that has Group subclassed using inspect and importlib

That's my idea thinking about it now.

[pliant gulch]

That's basically what I said to do

[cloud dawn]

Something like a custom iterator ```py
def walk_extensions() -> Iterator[str]:
...

[pliant gulch]

And that's literally what discord.py does with load_extension

[slate swan]

if you think my solutions are wrong or not suiting for you ask someone else like nullptr which he will probably give you the same answer or a more better/complicated way

[pliant gulch]

Except inspect would overall make this uglier code

Metaclass is by far the easiest here

[cloud dawn]

Oh okay :)
Wished that Client also had cogs... lol

[cloud dawn]

I will look into it what would be most clean and understandable to do.

[exotic maple]

@pliant gulch Hey can you help me fix this?

My issue is, if I do /confess "hey there word_one" it wont detect, it onlt detects if i do /confess "word_one"

[cloud dawn]

Thanks for taking the time.

[pliant gulch]

All good, I'd def recommend the metaclass

As it gives you the name, and the bound method itself

So you'd just need to do, E.g self.add_command(callback)

Where self is your bot, of course switch this for slash commands*

[slate swan]

btw andy why do meta classes need to be a subclass of type and not object?

[cloud dawn]

https://github.com/Pandabweer/dpy-dispy This is my repo if you'd like you can see what I'm doing.

[cloud dawn]

Object is is too low. Since type subclasses object. So makes more sense to import type.

[exotic maple]

Anyone?

[pliant gulch]

It's a bit hard to explain through words but, imagine type -> object hierarchy kinda

[slate swan]

mhm alr

[old crescent]

so i'm still following the tutorial from earlier, i put the starter discord bot into my program, got git working with the right files to fix my earlier isses, and now i've got a large traceback list with the error:
discord.errors.PrivilegedIntentsRequired: Shard ID None is requesting privileged intents that have not been explicitly enabled in the developer portal.
however, I have the bot enabled as an administrator, with bot and applications.commands checked

[cloud dawn]

Assuming confession is a string... ```py
if any(x for x in library if x in confession):

[exotic maple]

Oh alright,

Thanks man

Also, i appreciate you trying to help @slate swan sorry i wasnt much use in acting on it

[pliant gulch]

Is there really a need for any?

[slate swan]

not really lol

[pliant gulch]

The issue was they had the tokens swapped around

[slate swan]

hes just checking if a string is in a tuple

[cloud dawn]

Btw in this case it's even easier since you can just pass the whole Group to the tree.

[pliant gulch]

How can I make the bot unban the user with their ID

[pliant gulch]

Not sure how slash commands work with discord.py, never touched them so I wouldn't know

The key point you should take away is making a decorator that marks your method as a command

[slate swan]

is this a code from a tutorial because ive seen it many times and its horrible

[pliant gulch]

Otherwise you'd need to do some hacky stuff

[south jetty]

yes 😅

[slate swan]

[cloud dawn]

self.tree.add_command(Core(), guild=discord.Object(id=config.debug.guild))
``` this is how to add a Group of commands this is hard coded rn for debugging but rn coding the recursive function to not do it manually.

[slate swan]

just use an id to fetch the member

[old crescent]

in the commmand
client.run('token')
the token of my bot must be in the quotes right?

[south jetty]

uhm how

[slate swan]

yes it must be a string.

[old crescent]

gotcha

[slate swan]

!d discord.ext.commands.Bot.fetch_user

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ext.commands.Bot.fetch\_user

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

Retrieves a [`User`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/api.html#discord.User "discord.User") based on their ID. You do not have to share any guilds with the user to get this information, however many operations do require that you do.

Note

This method is an API call. If you have [`discord.Intents.members`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/api.html#discord.Intents.members "discord.Intents.members") and member cache enabled, consider [`get_user()`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/master/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.Bot.get_user "discord.ext.commands.Bot.get_user") instead.

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

[slate swan]

!d discord.Guild.unban

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Guild.unban

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

Unbans a user from the guild.

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

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

[slate swan]

await guild_instance.unban((await bot.fetch_user(id)), reason = "no reason")

is one way of doing it

[south jetty]

    async def unban(self, ctx, *, member):
        banned_users = await ctx.guild.bans()
        member_name, member_discriminator = member.split('#')

        for ban_entry in banned_users:
            user = await ctx.fetch_user(ban_entry.user)

        if (user.name, user.discriminator) == (member_name, member_discriminator):
            await ctx.guild.unban(user)```

[pliant gulch]

!e ```py
from future import annotations
from typing import Callable, Coroutine, Any

class FooMeta(type):

def __new__(cls: type["FooMeta"], name: str, bases: tuple[type[Any], ...], attrs: dict[Any, Any]) -> FooMeta:
    callbacks: list[Coroutine] = []

    for name, value in attrs.items():
        if hasattr(value, "marked"):
            callbacks.append(value)

    attrs["__callbacks__"] = callbacks
    return super().__new__(cls, name, bases, attrs)

@staticmethod
def marker(name: str) -> Callable[..., Coroutine]:
    def inner(func: Coroutine) -> Coroutine:
        setattr(func, "marked", True)
        return func

    return inner

class Foo(metaclass=FooMeta):
callbacks: list[Callable[..., Coroutine]]

@marker("Something")
async def my_command(self) -> None:
    ...

[cloud dawn]

Why are you looping so much to unban one member

[slate swan]

not quite you would need to fetch the user with the corouine given which then returns the object which then you would pass it in the kwarg of the unban coroutine thats bound to an instance of a Guild object

[south jetty]

looping?

[pliant gulch]

😔

[slate swan]

😭

[torn sail]

It’s the Lucas way

[south jetty]

im confused

[old crescent]

@slate swan if u have a sec, i got git installed, started a new program and installed discord.py with the command you gave me, tried to run the basic program in
https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/quickstart.html#a*minimal*bot
but it still has that line 6 error:
"intents.message_content = True
AttributeError: 'Intents' object has no attribute 'message_content'"

[pliant gulch]

@cloud dawn Mostly what I meant as in the marker

[slate swan]

do print(discord.__version__)

[pliant gulch]

Now you just need to attach them inside of your __init__ to the client

[old crescent]

2.0.0a

[old crescent]

that's the message i get when i run "py -3 main.py"

[slate swan]

uninstall 1.7.3 so do pip uninstall discord.py

!d discord.Intents.message_content

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Intents.message\_content

Whether message content, attachments, embeds and components will be available in messages which do not meet the following criteria:

• The message was sent by the client

• The message was sent in direct messages

• The message mentions the client

This applies to the following events...

[cloud dawn]

This is cool could really do something hacky with this. Really need to get more into metaclasses.

[pliant gulch]

I use metaclasses more than I should

[slate swan]

and attrs

[pliant gulch]

Most of the stuff could be done without it, but I like how clean it is

But it's also kind of like black magic if you don't understand metaclasses

Double sided sword ig

[cloud dawn]

Lol prob, Yeah what you are saying I don't want to code something really difficult and longer just for the looks of it.

[old crescent]

alright i did that, now it stays that "import discord" doesnt exist

[slate swan]

restart your editor

[old crescent]

will do

[slate swan]

because it should still import

[pliant gulch]

Yep, but in this case it's pretty good, as it's procedural, other ways would require you to hardcode or etc, once you finish this metaclass all your other classes will work fine with it

It's not very hard either

[cloud dawn]

I think I do got somewhere I could implement this right now I don't really have any commands since I want to have a stable base at first.

[old crescent]

apparently i needed to reinstall the git files you sent lol

[slate swan]

😔

[pliant gulch]

👍

[slate swan]

wait what

the git files?

[old crescent]

pip install git+https://github.com/Rapptz/discord.py this

[slate swan]

you mean the repo?

[old crescent]

yeah im new to git and stuff so i wasnt sure what the terms are

[cloud dawn]

I never hard code that's against my will. I will just call it "custom for my need", I'm not going to make it so dynamic just so someone can copy paste it into his own code as butter.

[pliant gulch]

But procedural coding is so good

It's one and done, scalabitlity is high

[old crescent]

wack its still throwing the same error

[cloud dawn]

Sometimes but I don't like it with Discord bots since I like unique :3

[pliant gulch]

Imagine using the one metaclass and writing 50 cogs for it then doing it again without it with also 50 cogs

😔

[jovial pilot]

here it says ctx has no attribute guild, what should i replace ctx with?

[cloud dawn]

Lol on my previous bot I also used inspect and importlib to look for a setup func.

[cloud dawn]

Show more code we got no clue where this is standing.

[pliant gulch]

Sure, importlib makes sense, but why inspect?

import mymodule

if setup := getattr(mymodule, "setup"):
    setup(bot)

[cloud dawn]

        if module.ispkg:
            imported = importlib.import_module(module.name)
            if not inspect.isfunction(getattr(imported, "setup", None)):
                # If it lacks a setup function, it's not an extension.
                continue

for module in pkgutil.walk_packages(exts.__path__, f"{exts.__name__}.", onerror=on_error)

[pliant gulch]

Ah your checking if it's a functio with inspect

[cloud dawn]

[cloud dawn]

@pliant gulch Are you new in the server? Never seen you around here before, and I'm quite active :3

[slate swan]

thats andy

[pliant gulch]

👁️

[slate swan]

😳

[cloud dawn]

Looks like on_message

[cloud dawn]

He changed his name? lol

[slate swan]

ye

[jovial pilot]

yes it is on_message

oh i forgot to separate it from that

[cloud dawn]

I was like where did this meta dude come from 😂

[slate swan]

😭

meta man😳

[pliant gulch]

Well my actual username has never been "andy" exactly

That was just my sever nickname

[sick birch]

i liked andy better

[cloud dawn]

Discord advanced discussions textchannel when

[sick birch]

Working it out in org channels

[slate swan]

can i be there 🥺

[cloud dawn]

Haha, Mina said she'd give an update in a few days.

[tame raft]

can anyone help me

[cloud dawn]

Most likely.

[pliant gulch]

Adanced discord discussion lmao, what would that even entail

[slate swan]

🙏

[sick birch]

Not sure if I'm supposed to talk about it

[pliant gulch]

I'm assuming how to make your own wrappers, etc

Gateway directly and hidden stuff like hidden ratelimits

[cloud dawn]

I could only see a handful of people being there, I think we all know whom.

[slate swan]

mostly about src etc idk

[pliant gulch]

Maybe I'll bring back rin 😳 and do code vlog in advanced-discord

[slate swan]

maybe a thread and not a channel

[cloud dawn]

Custom cogs for people who dislike using the Bot class for slash commands.

[slate swan]

would be better

[slate swan]

Yes!

[pliant gulch]

Even better, custom wrapper for people who dislike discord.py

[cloud dawn]

hmh

[slate swan]

it will be cool to learn about your codebase

[cloud dawn]

I'm starting to dislike discord.py more every day. Since a while ago you are forced to pass Intents even if it's just an empty class.

So this is my intents kwarg now intents=Intents()

[pliant gulch]

Just read

[slate swan]

i do read

[pliant gulch]

What have you read so far

[cloud dawn]

Better not, but still "a few days" is unspecific and I'm curious

[sick birch]

These things take time

But when a decision is made all the regulars including you guys will know about it

[slate swan]

a bit of the ratelimiter a bit of the gateway folder a bit of the bots loop a bit of your modals and a bit of everything

[pliant gulch]

please don't look at the modals

[slate swan]

too bad

[pliant gulch]

Matter of fact I should delete main branch and only keep the "rewrite" one

[cloud dawn]

Yes :3
Mina will most likely post it in #community-meta I hope it will then reduce all the nasty stuff.

[sick birch]

"Nasty stuff"?

[slate swan]

hey robin i think it will be easier to make it a thread and not a TextChannel as it would be dumb to have 2 channels of the same topic!

[cloud dawn]

The discussion we had about #discord-bots.

[sick birch]

Yes thank you for the feedback :)

But it really should go in #community-meta not to me

[slate swan]

Anytime now go get them tiger

[slate swan]

vouch for us!

[cloud dawn]

Honestly I don't know what to expect we had a pretty big discussion in #community-meta. But every solutions had it's ups and downs.

[sick birch]

Will do, still best to put it in community meta however

[sick birch]

Ah, I haven't checked that channel in a bit. I'm OOTL

[slate swan]

i will!

[cloud dawn]

You participated, I pinged you :)

[old crescent]

is the pycharm terminal command to run a file
"py -3 'python file name'"

[cloud dawn]

I have seen a lot less hate towards starters ever since the discussion started @sick birch
Also more mods have come by.

[cloud dawn]

To run your current program?

[oblique adder]

I just need 1 more text box but the max is only 5 is there any work around ? like 2 pages ?

[old crescent]

yes

[cloud dawn]

Just use the build in interpreter.

[old crescent]

is there a default configuration? i have to make a new one for each file everytime i make a program

also running a the program with the basic tutorial bot script that way causes a whole slew of errors compared to the single error im getting for using "py -3 main.py"

[cloud dawn]

Wdym each file?

[slate swan]

#community-meta message vouches would be helpful and advice!

[old crescent]

so like when i start up pycharm, make a program, and then create a .py file i want to run, i have to click on the configurations setting and set the path to that file and such

[dull terrace]

async def cooldown_check(interaction):
    try:
        if player_cooldown[interaction.author.id][1] % 30 == 0:
            player_cooldown[interaction.author.id] = [0, time_stamp]
        elif player_cooldown[interaction.author.id][0] > 40:
            return True

            await interaction.send(message, delete_after=10)

        player_cooldown[interaction.author.id][0] += 1
    except:
        player_cooldown[interaction.author.id] = [0, time_stamp]
    return False

How is this for a cooldown function, checks if there have been more than 40 interactions in less than 30 seconds for a user and if await cooldown_check(interaction): return when they try to interact deletes their id on player_cooldown if their cache auto deletes

[boreal osprey]

it is showing as if i didn't install utils. does anyone know how to help

[slate swan]

does that for me, restart your IDE

[boreal osprey]

thing is, i had utils installed since yesterday

and i just restarted it now and it is still doing it

[slate swan]

you did pip install python-utils

right?

[boreal osprey]

no, i did pip3 install utils (im on mac)

[slate swan]

try python-utils

also, i think its not Util with a uppercase U

try from util import ..

[boreal osprey]

it still doesn't work

[slate swan]

try from util import util

[frozen patio]

How do I define bot in an event in cogs?

[slate swan]

also, wait you probally have python3 and python2 installed try pip install utils

not pip3

[boreal osprey]

i was using pip3

[dull terrace]

wouldn't it be self.bot.get_channel() from within a class

[slate swan]

Okay remove the import util part, and import sys and print(sys.version) and send me a SS

[frozen patio]

Oh yeah

[slate swan]

or just go on your terminal and simply type python -V

[slate swan]

Okay thats why.

[boreal ravine]

yes

[slate swan]

You're using python2, but you're installing the packages to python3.

do pip install utils

[frozen patio]

What is this error?

[boreal ravine]

you forgot to call listener

[sick birch]

It's commands.cog.listener()

[frozen patio]

😐

[frozen patio]

So just add () to every one?

[boreal ravine]

what?

[sick birch]

When you decorate a function without (), it calls the decorator and gives the function object to it, which is why the error happens:

def my_decorator(func): # func is a function object
  # do something
  return something

When it's like that, you don't have to () the decorator

If it's like this, you do have to () the decorator:

def my_decorator(*args, **kwargs):
  def wrapper(func):
    # do something
  return wrapper

[slate swan]

it depends if the decorator takes other arguments that arent the function that is being decorated.

[frozen patio]

I just need to make the cog listener to work

It is for a basic log system 😄

[sick birch]

Yeah, you need to refer to the documentation for that

Usually though, if a decorator doesn't take any arguments, you can leave out the () as python calls the decorator for you

[blissful sparrow]

My minds gone blank, what would I put here?
https://caught-lackin-in-8k-by-cyberghost.cf/z9Ssd0Qv

[cloud dawn]

@pliant gulch That could happen but if there are people that work with slash commands daily they most likely will be up to date.

@slate swan Way too late for that

[slate swan]

😔 awe

[frozen patio]

Ima add it and see if that works

[boreal ravine]

ctx.member is not a thing. Did you mean ctx.author?

[blissful sparrow]

yeh that lol

[frozen patio]

Also commit the db

[blissful sparrow]

i have, just not shown it

https://caught-lackin-in-8k-by-cyberghost.cf/bSe4tG09

[cloud dawn]

Wait a second you started it in #community-meta 😂

[frozen patio]

I couldn't know that xD

[slate swan]

no😳

[pliant gulch]

Sure, but the point stil exists. Old messages can be searched for, etc

Name restriction is also documented with a REGEX so

It might not be the easiest to understand

[cloud dawn]

Regarding anything that is.

[pliant gulch]

I'm just thinking that there is really no need for an extra thread towards interactions & components

That would fall under the API aspect discussed earlier wouldn't it?

[pliant gulch]

A specific topical thread for a still immature feature is kind of stretching it

[frozen patio]

Why did my bot go out on process exit 0

[cloud dawn]

True but what would be under frontend?

[sick birch]

Perhaps. If you're doing interactions & components w/o a wrapper

[pliant gulch]

Library abstraction I'd assume

[frozen patio]

There is nothing to make it go out on Exit 0

[pliant gulch]

Your everday regular users will be using these anyways, as the interfaces are easier to use

They don't need to DIRECTLY use the API

Thats seperating frontend vs the API

[sick birch]

No, definetely not. JSON payloads for components are messy

[pliant gulch]

That's basically what I meant when I said frontend & bot in #community-meta

[cloud dawn]

I don't think many people have direct calls to the api that much.

[sick birch]

Yup. But I believe those shouldn't be the only ones. One thread as a catch-all for API-related topics will suffice, but we should have more sub-sub-topics for front-end "bot" aspect of it

Also things that don't really fall into either category, we were going to do one on VPS hosting since that one comes up a lot

[cloud dawn]

Agreed especially since a lot of people are beginners.

[pliant gulch]

Either way, if you look at the current channel topic it references python libraries, so specifically this channel is meant to be topical for library abstraction

[sick birch]

Definetely, yeah

[dull terrace]

can you put min_length on a modal?

[boreal ravine]

yes

[sick birch]

Min and max, yes

[dull terrace]

[sick birch]

I think you can do it on both the short and long types

[boreal ravine]

yes

[dull terrace]

gonna use modals to create a captcha system

[sick birch]

You can do it on the paragraph types, that's for sure. Don't know about short ones though

[cloud dawn]

!d discord.ui.TextInput.min_length

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ui.TextInput.min\_length

property min_length```
The minimum length of the text input.

[slate swan]

yes but it shouldnt all be related to the api but a bit on python librarys and how the interact with they api so the thread wouldnt get disconnected from the fact that this is a python server.

[sick birch]

Hm. I'd wait on that until modals are more flexible, like showing media on them

[pliant gulch]

Sure

[dull terrace]

just gonna use a button to make the modal pop up

[boreal ravine]

that's what this channel is for

[frozen patio]

Why is my bot turn off after I start it 😐

[pliant gulch]

Maybe I'll write a tutorial on how to make a discord API wrapper or something kek

[slate swan]

not what in talking about.

[pliant gulch]

I've made like 3 now so I'd be expirenced enough too

[cloud dawn]

Use either discord.py or nextcord not both.

[sick birch]

That would be amazing

[slate swan]

make a youtube series like Corey!

[frozen patio]

It still runs when I do not have that 😐

[pliant gulch]

All of them unfinished because I hate making models though!

[dull terrace]

10 second cooldown where no buttons or anything will interact > button appears and captcha as image file > button opens modal to enter captcha

[boreal ravine]

what are you talking about then?

[pliant gulch]

Models are my bane

[cloud dawn]

I meant uninstalling one.

[slate swan]

check #community-meta

[boreal ravine]

No

[slate swan]

why attrs? or parsing payloads or?

[sick birch]

How exactly are models done? Do you just loop through the incoming payload and use like __setattr__ to dynamically set the attributes for all fields in the payload?

[frozen patio]

I did that. same thing

[slate swan]

that would probably be a pain as your type checker would go crazy saying its unknown

[boreal ravine]

Have you tried restarting your IDE

[frozen patio]

No, I will in an hour

Let my PC cool down

[sick birch]

So, what, you go and do it manually? That doesn't sound all that ideal

[slate swan]

That is correct, but there would still be a bit of better handling for each attr and it would be easier for beginners to tell that its an actual attr.

[boreal ravine]

Awesome

[boreal ravine]

"actual attr"?

[cloud dawn]

Well you need to since the information can be really inconsistent with discord

Setting default values as well and returning partial.

[pliant gulch]

Well, sure you could but I don't, because of types mostly

[sick birch]

That's unfortunate

[pliant gulch]

Just imgine classes as a wrapper class for a JSON object

That's why I hate doing them so much

[cloud dawn]

https://github.com/Rapptz/discord.py/blob/master/discord/guild.py#L453-L525

[frozen patio]

What should I do if it does not work.

[boreal ravine]

Reinstall nextcord

[frozen patio]

Yea I will thank you

[sick birch]

Ah, that helps

[sick birch]

I think that's basically what JS classes are

[frozen patio]

What about 1 for python?

[sick birch]

Also maybe why they're called "objects"

Since they're excellent for data abstraction

You can represent almost anything using them, and they can also include functions

const animal = {
  name: "name",
  type: "dog",
  age: 2,
  bark: () => {
    console.log("Woof!");
  },
}

I wonder if you can do

x = {
  "someFunction": def y: print("Hello, world")
}

[boreal ravine]

not possible

[cloud dawn]

lambda?

[sick birch]

That's unfortunate. I bet you could pass it in as a first-class function though

!e

def sayHello():
  print("Hello, world!")
x = {
  "hello": sayHello
}
x["hello"]()

[unkempt canyon]

@sick birch :white_check_mark: Your eval job has completed with return code 0.

Hello, world!

[boreal ravine]

or just a simple lambda

[sick birch]

Yeah, but say it was a long function

[cloud dawn]

Thus a longer lambda

😂

[boreal ravine]

whats the difference between that and this? ```js
const human = {
"name": "devon"
}

[sick birch]

The key can include invalid characters like - or spaces

But if they do, you have to access them like you would in python:

console.log(human['name']);

as opposed to

console.log(human.name);

[pliant gulch]

I mean, python classes are also pretty much decked out dictionaries

[sick birch]

Yeah that's to be expected when you have a very expressive data structure like dicts

[pliant gulch]

Like here, in the metaclass basically showing what I mean

[mellow mountain]

So i try to grab some informations from a websites API and i have two different sites.. one is with a public profile and the other one has a closed profile with less informations.. i can easily open them in my browser, both of them and see all the datas i need.. i can even get all datas from the public profile.

I just checked and it just gives me a 404 error on the closed profile, not so with the public one..

So.. im a bloody beginner. im using the requests.get function.

Why is it possible to view both sites in my browser without any problems, but inside my code it wont work?

[cloud dawn]

What do you mean by "get all datas from the public profile"?

[sick birch]

Right. First, I'm assuming you're working in an asynchronous environment, as you're asking in #discord-bots. If so, requests.get is blocking and you should use aiohttp. The real problem is with authentication. When you use your browser, the site uses your cookies to figure out if you can access a certain protected page or not. With regular requests, however, you can't do that since there's no way for the site to tell if you're supposed to be getting that information. Usually, the website's API will give you some sort of token or key and documentation on how to use it as authorization so you can access that closed profile

Take the discord API for example. To view certain information, like a user's guilds, you need to pass in this header:

{
  "Authorization": "Bearer <TOKEN>"
}

When you use your browser to visit that website, it automatically fills in that header for you. When you send a request, however, you have to manually include that in the headers:

requests.get("https://discord.com/api/v8/protected-endpoint", headers = {
  "Authorization": "Bearer " + token
})

[pliant gulch]

You would specifically get that token by making a user accept a Oauth2 request

Provided with the specific scopes, E,g guild.join or whatever it was

[sick birch]

Right. Discord saves that as a cookie most likely, however, so you don't have to log in every single time you want to visit discord

With requests there's no way to save that information (server side of course) so you have to pass it in every request

[mellow mountain]

        url = "https://www.habbo.de/api/public/users?name={habbo}" # the url from the website
        hdr = {'User-Agent': 'Mozilla/5.0'} 
        get_infos = requests.get(url, headers=hdr) 

        with get_infos: 
            print(get_infos.status_code)   # gives a 404 when its a closed profile
            online = get_infos.json()['online'] 
            habboname = get_infos.json()['name']
            motto = get_infos.json()['motto']
            profileVisible = get_infos.json()['profileVisible']
            lidsince = get_infos.json()['memberSince']
            lastLogin = get_infos.json()['lastAccessTime']
            id = get_infos.json()['uniqueId']

Hope i did it right so far - thats my solution currently. I will look into your answers now. 😄

So basically compare both of this sites as example
https://www.habbo.de/api/public/users?name=marius-k (public profile)
https://www.habbo.de/api/public/users?name=electro-freak93 (closed profile)

I can easily access both sites with Google Chrome - i checked the status code with print(get_infos.status_code) and it gives me a 404 in the second link, and a 200 in the first one.

[sick birch]

Does that site have API documentation?

[mellow mountain]

Not sure, didnt found one yet.

[sick birch]

Ah that's a problem

First make sure if they have an API or not, if not, make sure if they allow scraping. If they do (or don't mention NOT scraping) look into a library like BS4 to parse the information

if hasApi:
  use_api()
else:
  if allowsScraping:
    scrape()
  else:
    sad()

[mellow mountain]

I just found out that they store these datas with this link and saw they had all the datas i would like to use. Seems like there isnt an official documentation.

[silent ridge]

Hey, I want to implent 'game' status in my discord bot. What should I add? I have this right no

[sick birch]

If there's isn't an official documentation, most likely means they don't want users automating access to their sites so you should proceed with caution and respect any ratelimits or other restrictions

[silent ridge]

@client.event
async def on_ready():
    print("[Connected]")
    activity = discord.Game(name="protecting gako's server", type=3)
  
    await client.change_presence(status=discord.Status.online, activity=activity)

@client.event
async def on_ready():
    print(f'{client.user} has connected to Discord!')
    verificationChannel = client.get_channel(verificationChannelID)

    messages = await verificationChannel.history(limit=200).flatten()
    for message in messages:
        print(message.author)
        if str(message.author) == botName:
            await message.delete()```

is this good?

[mellow mountain]

Its just a few times a day for like 30 users, that sometimes want to see these profile data on our server. Its not for spamming purposes. But thanks. 😄

[proven ore]

maybe a lambda ```py
x = {
"someFunction": lambda x: print(x)
}

or with args

[proven ore]

why two on_ready

just make one with code of both

[dull terrace]

@client.event()
async def on_modal_submit(interaction):```
`TypeError: event() missing 1 required positional argument: 'coro'`

[cloud dawn]

you don't call an event

[dull terrace]

not sure what you mean, following code works fine for dropdowns and buttons

@client.event
async def on_dropdown(interaction):```

[slate swan]

yes you would use a lambda and then you index it and then you call it

[cloud dawn]

Compare the 2 code

What is different?

[dull terrace]

shit

i got it

[frozen patio]

@boreal ravine I got it to work after I reinstalled nextcord, but then when I needed to rerun it it just stopped at exit code 0

[pliant gulch]

What should I go over in my discord API wrapper tutorial? Specifics please, such as what exactly intents are for

[cloud dawn]

Did you run the bot?

[frozen patio]

Yes, but then it built this:

What is this-

[pliant gulch]

Bytecode

[frozen patio]

Well I just coded a log system for role message edited, deleted, and then this file popped up 👀

[stone beacon]

It makes ur python code faster

[frozen patio]

Well the bot will not turn on.

[stone beacon]

Well that's not the reason why it isn't turning on. You got any error msgs?

[frozen patio]

No errors, just doesn't run 😐

[stone beacon]

Do you have bot.run() in logs.py?

Uhh

You gotta run ur main bot file m8 not the cog

[frozen patio]

That would make all the sense

It ran so ye

Thank you guys alot.

[slate swan]

1. websockets(including hbs)
2. parsing payloads
3. handling ratelimits with buckets(i wanna see that)
4. entities
5. having a good code base
6. exts

[stone beacon]

Much interested in #3

[slate swan]

same

[cloud dawn]

parsing payloads is kinda normal python

[frozen patio]

I could make a wrapper? :OOOO

[pliant gulch]

no entities

[slate swan]

yeah ik

[pliant gulch]

I don't even like writing models in my own wrappers

what makes you think I would make a tutorial on them

[slate swan]

entities as models

[pliant gulch]

that's library abstraction that I will be avoiding

[slate swan]

smh

[pliant gulch]

buckets will be explained, so will ratelimits

[slate swan]

theyre quite easy to make you just need to know about oop and the api with its docs

[pliant gulch]

codebase eh, I will be using poetry

[slate swan]

Good

[pliant gulch]

What does exts even mean here?

[slate swan]

like cogs in a sense

[pliant gulch]

No

[slate swan]

but better!

[slate swan]

😡

ill dislike your video then😡

[pliant gulch]

It's not a video it's a markdown file

[slate swan]

NO MAKE A VIDEO

😡

that would be better for explanations

[pliant gulch]

A gist would be better for me, and I've gotten some of it written already

Yes I know there is a typo

[slate swan]

pretty cool

[sick birch]

models 🙃

[pliant gulch]

no

[sick birch]

😢

[pliant gulch]

Do I make a tutorial repo for this

[slate swan]

Yea that would be great

so people can commit to it

and so they can make suggestions!

[pliant gulch]

Annddd another repo in my github related to discord API

[sick birch]

lol same here

[slate swan]

atleast finish it

[pliant gulch]

That's asking for a lot

[slate swan]

You started the idea/project so finish it

[pliant gulch]

I wouldn't be andy if I don't procrastinate

[slate swan]

then dont be andy and be Andy

[dull terrace]

guys

captchas are so pointless

there's literally an extention for chrome that solves the hardest ones

[gilded zephyr]

How do I loop over all servers my bot is in?

Like for server in bot.servers: or something

[dull terrace]

disnake.errors.InteractionResponded: This interaction has already been responded to before why am i getting this when i'm returning

async def on_button_click(interaction):
    data = await interaction_common(interaction)
    if not data:
        return```

it's like it keeps retrying

[gilded zephyr]

Oops nvm I was close: for guilds in bot.guilds:

[marsh depot]

Hello, good, I'm trying to recreate the say command so that if you reply to someone's message, the bot replicates what you replicate to the other user and thus ensure that the one that really replicates is the bot to another user

Anyone know where is the issue or can help me a little bit?

@bot.command()
async def say(ctx, *, message=None): # COMANDO SAY
    if message is None:
        await ctx.reply(":deny: Stuff")
    else:
        if ctx.message.reference:
            original = await ctx.fetch_message(id=ctx.message.reference.message_id)
            await ctx.message.delete()
            await ctx.reply(original)
        else:
            message = message
            await ctx.message.delete()
            await ctx.send(message)

[left crater]

can you show the error?

[marsh depot]

In the terminal don't send any error, just dont work correctly

[left crater]

is that the only command that doesn't work?

[marsh depot]

yes, for example i want to replace the ksay Hi for the bot reply my message saying the text i put after k!say , you understand?

Okay i have it

[marsh depot]

@bot.command()
async def say(ctx, *, message=None): # COMANDO SAY
    if message is None:
        await ctx.reply(":deny: Inserte la frase que desee que el bot diga")
    else:
        if ctx.message.reference:
            original = await ctx.fetch_message(id=ctx.message.reference.message_id)
            message = message
            await ctx.message.delete()
            await original.reply(message)
        else:
            message = message
            await ctx.message.delete()
            await ctx.send(message)

change ctx.reply(original) for replying the original message and sending the message

[split merlin]

Hi, so I want to make something like donate bot for my bot, where a member can buy subscription or something
the payment will be done via paypal but i am struggling to find where should i start or what should i do, any tips or guides will be appreciated, Thanks in advance

[civic fractal]

Are you asking about the paypal api or the discord api

these are two fundamentally different systems

[split merlin]

well, i am not sure of that either
simply put it's like the donate bot, you pay then you get a role

[slate swan]

Like premium bot stuff?

[split merlin]

yeah

[slate swan]

sry idk

[civic fractal]

you need to interact with basically 2 services

1. discord
2. paypal

start with discord, then try to add paypal

[split merlin]

it's fine

[civic fractal]

so make a simple discord bot that can reply to commands and such

then ask about paypal

[split merlin]

yeah i do know how to make bots

so ig i need to ask about paypal then?

[civic fractal]

okay so your bot is finished and everything?

[split merlin]

pretty much yea

[civic fractal]

do you have a paypal developer account?

[split merlin]

nope

[civic fractal]

https://developer.paypal.com/home/

big yellow button

[slate swan]

Ig making a website and then login with ur discord and they pay on ur website then it gets permium account like dyno mee6 and all

[split merlin]

ooh

[slate swan]

Maybe*

I really dont know*

[split merlin]

well you still need to connect both apis

[slate swan]

Hm

async def on_member_update(before, after):

        my_server = bot.get_guild(channel id)
        role_id = role id here
        role = my_server.get_role(role_id)
        if act := [activ.name for activ in after.activities if activ.type == ActivityType.custom and req_act in activ.name]:
            
            channel = bot.get_channel(channel id here)
            emb = discord.Embed(color=0xffffff)
            emb.description = f"""
thanks for the vanity wowow
          """
            emb.set_footer(text="vanity")
            if role in after.roles: 
              return
            else:
              await channel.send(f"<@{after.id}>", embed=emb)
              await after.add_roles(role)

        else:
              await after.remove_roles(role) ```

pretty sure i got this wrong as i dont have the bot token in a config

but i wanna set it to where the vanity status role giver will work in multiple servers and not just one server so basically i want my bot to give users the designated role when they put a servers vanity in their status

Here's how to format Python code on Discord:

```py

[final iron]

btw you can use isinstance

!d isinstance

[unkempt canyon]

isinstance

isinstance(object, classinfo)```
Return `True` if the *object* argument is an instance of the *classinfo* argument, or of a (direct, indirect, or [virtual](https://docs.python.org/3/glossary.html#term-abstract-base-class)) subclass thereof. If *object* is not an object of the given type, the function always returns `False`. If *classinfo* is a tuple of type objects (or recursively, other such tuples) or a [Union Type](https://docs.python.org/3/library/stdtypes.html#types-union) of multiple types, return `True` if *object* is an instance of any of the types. If *classinfo* is not a type or tuple of types and such tuples, a [`TypeError`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/exceptions.html#TypeError "TypeError") exception is raised.

Changed in version 3.10: *classinfo* can be a [Union Type](https://docs.python.org/3/library/stdtypes.html#types-union).

Similar names: 2to3fixer.isinstance

[slate swan]

ok

[final iron]

iirc object would be your member status object

classinfo would be the object you're comparing it to

[slate swan]

👍

That is so.

[final iron]

!e

my_var = "aaaa"
if isinstance(my_var, str):
    print(f"{my_var=}")

[unkempt canyon]

@final iron :white_check_mark: Your eval job has completed with return code 0.

my_var='aaaa'

[slate swan]

!e

if isinstance((a:=1), int):
    print(a)

[final iron]

That's annoying

[unkempt canyon]

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

1

[slate swan]

[final iron]

You can only do your_var= in f-strings

[slate swan]

i wonder why discord doesnt highlight isinstance

[eternal cairn]

[final iron]

wdym

It does

It's red

[slate swan]

its not highlighted on my mobile client

[final iron]

Discord's weird

[slate swan]

discord highlights syntax differently depending on your client

Yes

[civic fractal]

You don't need to make a website

your discord bot can just directly send the paypal link

[slate swan]

lol

..

[slate swan]

check your pings bro

i dont even have a ping it triggers my ocd if i do

[slate swan]

Nuke bot

[slate swan]

😡

[civic fractal]

1. someone uses a !donate command
2. your bot reaches out to the paypal api and generates a donation link for them
3. your bot DMs them the link
4. they click the link and give the money
5. PayPal reaches out to your api (a webhook)
6. you save their premium status in a database
7. your bot gives them the special role

[slate swan]

uh

bro

Now fine

Nvmd ot

[supple thorn]

Discord doesn't highlight anything on my iphone

[split merlin]

Oh yeah true, thanks again

[slate swan]

Yes

See this

[slate swan]

Join a server then ill give u almost 15k + pings 😈 😈

😈

[sick birch]

lmao

[slate swan]

yes

[sick birch]

anyway i'll brb have to log out and in just changed my default shell :D

[slate swan]

True menace

[high nexus]

yo nothing for checking if a member exists is working

[slate swan]

!intents

[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.

How to create slash command group (nextcord)?

[boreal ravine]

you don't

@bot.slash_command()
async def slash(interaction):
    ...
``` `slash` is already a sort of a group already so you can just do the below to make a subcommandd```py
@slash.subcommand()

[high nexus]

how I check if member exist in a discord server

bc what I was given before

isn't working

[spring flax]

A member or user?

[high nexus]

Uhhh what would be the difference

[elfin flame]

anyone able to help with discord js?

[boreal ravine]

https://discord.gg/djs ask here

[elfin flame]

tysm

[supple thorn]

A member is a user in a guild a user is someone outside of a guild

Just a simplified version of it

[high nexus]

Yeah so I need member

[sick birch]

A member is associated with a guild, while a user is not

So someone can be both a member and a user

[high nexus]

Yeah I need member

[sick birch]

You probably want to check if a user is in a server

Because if you're checking if a member exists in a server you already know that they do

[high nexus]

Yeah that would work

For what I need

[sick birch]

If you have their ID you can use get_member() with their ID

should be faster than looping because hash maps are O(1)

[mortal dove]

How do I implement slash commands in discord.py?

[civic fractal]

Discord doesn't provide an API for that

so it isn't possible without breaking their tos

[slate swan]

ok

[dull terrace]

[mortal dove]

bruh

[dull terrace]

what isn't possible

wait so discord doesnt let you stream video as a bot?

[slate swan]

travling with speed of light

[civic fractal]

I wasn't talking to you, other guy deleted their message

[slate swan]

me

[mortal dove]

haha I saw, dw 😅

[supple thorn]

Sparky likes deleting messages

[dull terrace]

it would be pretty dope if you could stream video as a bot, you could actually make an animated game

choose your own adventure story would be cool too

[civic fractal]

nope - people would just stream youtube videos and movies illegally

[dull terrace]

sucks

[slate swan]

..

[dull terrace]

i imagine its mostly due to the fact that it would take up so much bandwidth for discord though

[civic fractal]

unlikely

humans can stream video no problem

[dull terrace]

their api is literally limited to 50 per second for bots

[supple thorn]

Or discord are just racist to bots

[slate swan]

wait lol

[dull terrace]

they really wouldn't be able to handle a bot on every server streaming video

[civic fractal]

per guild, to prevent spam

[mortal dove]

He was talking to you and you deleted the messages

[slate swan]

ye ik

[mortal dove]

Genius

[civic fractal]

doesn't have anything to deal with bandwidth

[dull terrace]

you really think discord servers could handle that

[civic fractal]

you can still stream hd audio

absolutely they can

[slate swan]

the apis global limit is 50 request per second that is correct.

[civic fractal]

no

[supple thorn]

Hello okimi

[civic fractal]

50 messages per guild per second

5 messages per channel per second

[dull terrace]

discord does not have youtubes infastructure

[civic fractal]

yes they do

its easy to expand, too

discord is already one of the most visited sites in the world

[dull terrace]

expensive*

[civic fractal]

they have plenty of infrastructure

[civic fractal]

no, its extremely cheap

employees are expensive

web infrastructure isnt

[dull terrace]

i seriously doubt you're correct, i wish i could get some stats on it

[slate swan]

seems like you haven't read docs?

because that is wrong. https://discord.com/developers/docs/topics/rate-limits#global-rate-limit

[sick birch]

It's because users aren't meant to be botted. Bots are meant to be botted, so the resources required would be much much higher for bots to stream

[slate swan]

hi hi

thats why most currency bot's have cooldowns

ig

[civic fractal]

i've personally experienced that that's a very malleable number

[dull terrace]

exactly look right now on any server you're on and most of them will have no streaming video currently

[civic fractal]

that might be per shard

[slate swan]

so youre saying the creators of the api are wrong?

[dull terrace]

if you had streaming bots you'd have an average of 1 on every server

[slate swan]

seems like a good point of your argument

[dull terrace]

some would have 3 with various things going

[civic fractal]

I don't think you understand how many servers there are

[dull terrace]

and thinking discord is set up to handle that is dumb, they mainly handle text and voice which is barely any work in comparison

[civic fractal]

I also don't think you understand what it means to be a top 100 visited website

[slate swan]

..

[dull terrace]

just because you're at the top doesn't mean you're set up for that

they would have to massively expand

[civic fractal]

??

[dull terrace]

expensive af

[civic fractal]

like I said, its extremely cheap relative to their employment cost

[slate swan]

pardon?

[sick birch]

Cheap does not equal no cost

No cost is better than cheap

Therefore no cost path should be followed

[slate swan]

what is this convo even about im so confused on the point here

Bots being able to stream videos

[slate swan]

oh

[civic fractal]

its crazy to think they wouldn't allow that due to bandwidth

not worth discussing

[dull terrace]

they're saying it would be nothing for discord to have millions more streams of video constantly going

[slate swan]

isnt that too much bandwith? especially for bots running multiple videos at a time?

[dull terrace]

it's not just bandwidth

[slate swan]

i mean it would cuz the user bandwith but its discords job to show the other users the same video at low latency

[sick birch]

discords video sucks to be honest

[civic fractal]

time to dissolve the company then??

[sick birch]

I don't think i've come across a good platform with good video as of yet

[civic fractal]

what kind of point is that

[pliant gulch]

Your talking about the same company that nitro gates image compressing

[slate swan]

yep

[dull terrace]

and animated images

[sick birch]

Not really. Companies will always go for the cheapest option, or not spend at all if it can be avoided. In this case it can be, and has been avoided for 7 years since discord came out

[pliant gulch]

Do you know how much money they would save by not GATING image compression?

[sick birch]

It's not going to hurt them to continue avoiding it

[slate swan]

they lock stream quality to 720 for no nitro users same with files guilds etc

[dull terrace]

they just doing all that for fun though

[slate swan]

its discord after all!

[final iron]

What is even going on

[sick birch]

Well they're making money which is more than I've ever done so I have to respect that

[dull terrace]

someone said it would be ez for discord to let bots stream video @final iron

[sick birch]

nitro or no

[final iron]

Oh that's dumb

[dull terrace]

millions of servers constantly streaming video from bots

[final iron]

That would be so resource intensive

[slate swan]

discord can but they wont🗿

[sick birch]

They can but it takes up a lot of resources

[slate swan]

hence the reason why they wont

[final iron]

Yeah because they don't want to pay for more servers

[sick birch]

Right so we shouldn't make it seem like they're baddies for not doing it

[dull terrace]

the only way that happens is if they decide to start putting ads before entering every server

[slate swan]

baddies? down bad robin

[dull terrace]

or on every video stream

[slate swan]

[final iron]

Imagine the out rage

[slate swan]

olie you gave discord an idea bro

[mental oar]

Or after every 20 messages

[sick birch]

you know what I mean

[dull terrace]

imagine having to watch a 2 min pre roll ad before you video chat with a friend

[slate swan]

down bad😳

want a break of the ads?

[pliant gulch]

Read a discord data mine like a while ago and it seemed like they were gonna add some premium subscription guild role or something

We love money

[slate swan]

Money!

[sick birch]

Course we do

[mental oar]

Imagine targeted ads in text chat… shudder

[pliant gulch]

“Wait 5 seconds and watch this short ad to continue sending messages”

[sick birch]

What, feeding text messages into some neural network to pump out targed ads based on our messages?

[slate swan]

imagine needing to watch an ad to send a file😭
