[scarlet sorrel]

True

@sick birch managed to get this with the inline thing, but why is there such huge space

[sick birch]

Are you using the whitespace hack?

[scarlet sorrel]

yes

[sick birch]

That's probably why

[sick birch]

They weren't meant to use the whitespace hack, gonna have to deal with it

[scarlet sorrel]

if i do it any other way its totally broken

[sick birch]

It's meant to look better when it's used like intended

[scarlet sorrel]

its kinda funny but usless

[sick birch]

Why not have the user's name and discrim as the field name, and their messages as the value?

[scarlet sorrel]

because that would make it even longer

or equally as long

[sick birch]

You don't even need fields, you can fit them all into the description which gives you more flexibility

[scarlet sorrel]

oh i am fully aware

i was going to do that, then someone said you can do nice grids with it

is there an intended way to get 2 columns?

[slate swan]

make only 2 fields both of which are inline

[scarlet sorrel]

.

thats what that is

[slate swan]

these are 3

[sick birch]

Don't believe so. I know I said it's a bit grid-like, but that's only really works when you have a lot of name/value pairs which are approximately the same length

otherwise it gets a bit funky

[scarlet sorrel]

no that was previous code

thats what 2 inline looks like

[sick birch]

Probably better to just use ljust with spaces to put it all in the desc

[scarlet sorrel]

whats ljust

you mean subtract length of the current string from the longest string and add that as spaces to the current string

[sick birch]

!e

print("user1#1234".ljust(20, ' ') + ' - ' + '500')
print("user2#5678".ljust(20, ' ') + ' - ' + '250')

[unkempt canyon]

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

001 | user1#1234           - 500
002 | user2#5678           - 250

[sick birch]

something like that

[scarlet sorrel]

lol i added that exact thing to a differnt thing the bot does

but i coded it myself

!e
print("user1#12dddddddd34".ljust(20, ' ') + ' - ' + '500')
print("user2#5678".ljust(20, ' ') + ' - ' + '250')

[jagged adder]

where do i put this in my code

[sick birch]

Above your bot constructor

But you had all intents, so I don't believe that's a problem

Can you print something as the first thing in the on_message?

[jagged adder]

any of this relevant or not even related

[sick birch]

Yeah you're good, you have all intents

Can you print ctx.bot.game_states[str(game_channel.id)].game_over before the while loop?

So

print(ctx.bot.game_states[str(game_channel.id)].game_over)
while not ctx.bot.game_states[str(game_channel.id)].game_over:
  ...

[jagged adder]

printed False

any suggestions or ideas to try lmk @sick birch , as i got to go and wont be back for at least a few hours

[heavy shard]

is it wait_for("msg" ...) or wait_for("message" ...)?

[scarlet sorrel]

async def on_message(message):?

[heavy shard]

i mean bot.wait_for(event) should event be "msg" or "message" ?

i think the latter

[jagged adder]

https://paste.pythondiscord.com/gepeqemume

thats the file

i got to go, any thoughts pm me @heavy shard, ill get back to em later

[torn sail]

The second

It’s just the normal event name without on_

How to do this in python 3.8

[maiden fable]

What's this...

Seems like arcade

[stray carbon]

it returns invalid syntax even when i import Match from typing

[torn sail]

if and elif

[maiden fable]

U need Python 3.10 to use match case

[slate swan]

you can't use Match case in 3.8, if elif is ur deal

[scarlet sorrel]

yea thats what he said

[stray carbon]

ohh

Whats typing.Match then?

[slate swan]

!d typing.Match

[unkempt canyon]

typing.Match

class typing.Pattern``````py

class typing.Match```
These type aliases correspond to the return types from [`re.compile()`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/re.html#re.compile "re.compile") and [`re.match()`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/re.html#re.match "re.match"). These types (and the corresponding functions) are generic in `AnyStr` and can be made specific by writing `Pattern[str]`, `Pattern[bytes]`, `Match[str]`, or `Match[bytes]`.

Deprecated since version 3.8, will be removed in version 3.12: The `typing.re` namespace is deprecated and will be removed. These types should be directly imported from `typing` instead.

Deprecated since version 3.9: Classes `Pattern` and `Match` from [`re`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/re.html#module-re "re: Regular expression operations.") now support `[]`. See [**PEP 585**](https://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0585) and [Generic Alias Type](https://docs.python.org/3/library/stdtypes.html#types-genericalias).

[slate swan]

thats another thing, meant for regex.

[stray carbon]

oh

[keen mural]

how can i put a @commands.cooldown(1, 10, commands.BucketType.user) in an if statement

how can i put a cooldown

in general

[slate swan]

what do u mean

@cooldown(rate, per, bucket)
@command(**kwargs)
async def command_callback(ctx):
   ...

[slate swan]

like this?

[keen mural]

yes

[slate swan]

use this @keen mural

[scarlet sorrel]

wow a 2 second differnce

why not make it instant

[slate swan]

bcz the bot is shit and hasnt been updated in 2 yrs

[keen mural]

i mean like if they are missing an argument for example they still get a cd and i dont want that

[slate swan]

it just broke 3 times this week

[keen mural]

@slate swan

[slate swan]

@bot.command(cooldown_after_parsing=True)

this will only activate the cooldown if the codes runs smoothly

@commands.cooldown(rate, per, type=<BucketType.default: 0>)```

put that above ur command function

[keen mural]

it doesnt give errors if thats what you mean

[slate swan]

yes

[keen mural]

for example if amount=None i dont want it to have a cd

@client.command(aliases=['dep'])
async def deposit(ctx,amount=None):
  if amount==None:
    await ctx.reply("You must specify an amount to withdraw")
    return```

or should i use an error handler instead

[slate swan]

raise ValueError('Missing argument')

put that in ur code

@client.command(cooldown_after_parsing=True)
@commands.cooldown(rate, per, type=<BucketType.default: 0>)
@client.command(aliases=['dep'])
async def deposit(ctx,amount=None):
  if amount==None:
    await ctx.reply("You must specify an amount to withdraw")
    raise ValueError('Missing argument')
    #return```

set it blank if u dont want a message

[sick birch]

I'd probably just have a global error handler to handle all the missing argument issues

Best not to repeat yourself in your code

[keen mural]

but it would be a command specific message i need to send

[sick birch]

Pretty sure with a global error handler, you can still say which argument you missed, like the name of it. Anything more specific than that, it has to be on a per command basis

In which case I'd make a command-specific error handler for seperation of concerns

[slate swan]

or a long elif tree which checks the command names

[slate swan]

unpythonic

[hollow zealot]

how do i install dpy2.0 on replit?

[lucid lance]

hello

[hollow zealot]

hi

[maiden fable]

Okay dude my bad

[lucid lance]

can you learn any type of coding here?

[hollow zealot]

how do i install dpy2.0 on replit?

[maiden fable]

!resources

[unkempt canyon]

Resources

The Resources page on our website contains a list of hand-selected learning resources that we regularly recommend to both beginners and experts.

[maiden fable]

U need to manually install it via shell and set the version in the poetry file

[hollow zealot]

how exactly

[scarlet sorrel]

@sick birch so how do you think i can make this more ordered?

the code:

for i in range(0, math.ceil(secud * 2)):
    if math.floor((i+1)/2) == math.ceil((i+1)/2):
        list2.append(f"#{(i+1)/2}: {temp}, {nlist[i]}")
    else:
        temp = nlist[i]
    debug = "\n".join(list2)
    embedVar = discord.Embed(title="Leaderboard of users ranked by messages", description=f"{debug}", color=0xbafc03)
    embedVar.add_field(value=f"{debug}", inline=False)
    debug = await message.reply(embedVar)
    await debug.add_reaction("🗑️")

[sick birch]

Definetely by making all the message #s on the same "column"

[scarlet sorrel]

right

but the question is how

[sick birch]

Find the largest name. add 5 for #XXXX, set that as the first argument for ljust

[slate swan]

you have to learn python to make discord bots? certainly not

[scarlet sorrel]

the name and discriminator are the same string in this

since its pulling all of the info from a huge file

[scarlet sorrel]

ill do that tho

[hollow zealot]

yes i figure it out now. i just have to restart.. cause i think some of my code are not gonna work :/

[sick birch]

Don't tell me you're logging every message in a file?

[placid verge]

Damn 😳

[scarlet sorrel]

https://cdn.discordapp.com/emojis/929832526476898324.webp?size=48&quality=lossless

there's only like 50k messages in there

text is very tiny in terms of space

computers are good at dealing with it

[sick birch]

just a plain old text file?

[scarlet sorrel]

yep

[sick birch]

ah, that's very inefficient

[scarlet sorrel]

you dont even wanna know how im saving and deploying it

you would probably cry

[sick birch]

so every time there's a new message, you append that to the text file?

[scarlet sorrel]

not even

[sick birch]

😬

[scarlet sorrel]

just open the entire text file as a string, add the new stuff to the end, then write the entire thing back

[sick birch]

oh my

[scarlet sorrel]

didnt know how to do fancy stuff when i wrote that part of the bot

should probably fix it

[sick birch]

I'd probably just have an in-memory cache and periodically dump it to an actual database

And only have one record for each user, and increment the number for each message

[scarlet sorrel]

nahhhhh

not enough data

this way i can have all kinds of fun commands

which i already have made

this leaderboard one included

[sick birch]

then you might be interested in something like our metricity bot

[scarlet sorrel]

oh nvm

[honest laurel]

Logging every message to a file should be fine 🤔 You don't have to override all data, just append

[scarlet sorrel]

it is using append

[sick birch]

https://github.com/python-discord/metricity

[scarlet sorrel]

why

[sick birch]

I don't know about fine, it's still just a plain text file and vulnerable to data corruptions

[slate swan]

that was very cheesy

[honest laurel]

Not if you just append i think

[sick birch]

it lets us do a lot of very fancy stuff with metrics data, and has user messages in there

[honest laurel]

You don't rewrite full file, so

[scarlet sorrel]

i do like metrics

[sick birch]

It's not just that, it's a plain text file not meant for handling large amounts of data

[honest laurel]

Storing them into a db is obviously a better way to do that

[slate swan]

and large mutations of it!

[sick birch]

We used it frequently to figure out which channels get the most messages, etc

[scarlet sorrel]

where is the actual bot in the repo

[sick birch]

Basically a mini version of discord's search bar at the top right hand corner, which bots can't access

the actual bot goes by some other name here, don't remember what exactly

Ah it was @lusty spear

[scarlet sorrel]

only 400 lines

[honest laurel]

https://github.com/samuelmarina/is-even/blob/main/index.js

[scarlet sorrel]

.js 🤢

[honest laurel]

come on, it's only 100mb

[sick birch]

yeah that crashed my browser

I'm assuming you're only joking

[honest laurel]

I'm just saying that storing data into plaintext files is ok

[sick birch]

if it's static, never changed, then sure maybe

[honest laurel]

Logging was and is done using files

[sick birch]

if it's dynamic data i would steer clear of it

[honest laurel]

append only should be fine too

[sick birch]

using text files isn't all that much of an improvement from JSON

[scarlet sorrel]

its an improvement?

[honest laurel]

It is an improvement

[sick birch]

since you can append, it's a little bit of one

[scarlet sorrel]

wow

[sick birch]

still vulnerable to the other flaws

[scarlet sorrel]

im ahead of the game then

[honest laurel]

Json files in 99% of cases should be fully overwritten

[scarlet sorrel]

i have no clue how to use JSON files

text files are easy

[honest laurel]

And you can corrupt your file this way unless you do some kind of atomic write

[slate swan]

u just need to know about with open

[scarlet sorrel]

i do know!

[slate swan]

then its easy

[honest laurel]

@scarlet sorrel I think you can learn sql and store your messages there (in case you need to access them later)

[sick birch]

best choice

[honest laurel]

If you just want a log - text file should be fine

[scarlet sorrel]

wym access them later

[honest laurel]

literally

[scarlet sorrel]

i can just read the file

[honest laurel]

access them in efficient manner

[slate swan]

thanks

[sick birch]

you don't need to store message content, only other metadata like things such as user ID, channel ID, guild ID, etc

[slate swan]

msg delete logs are against tos?

i would personally just save the object so its repr would be saved so i can access all of the message's info

[scarlet sorrel]

well 90% of the time im trying to read every message anyway so cant be that much better

[slate swan]

why even store messages when you can simply store the number...

[honest laurel]

Why did you use gino and not just sqlalchemy?

[scarlet sorrel]

dude literally dyno does that

[slate swan]

not really only large amounts of storing data but it is against tos if you have no reason

[scarlet sorrel]

its not against tos

[honest laurel]

oh, nvm actually

[slate swan]

ikr my 1 friend was telling me not to add

[honest laurel]

Why would you read every message?

[slate swan]

youre welcome👍

[scarlet sorrel]

my bot probably breaks every rule of the discord TOS in some way anyway

[slate swan]

nice bot

[slate swan]

okay

[scarlet sorrel]

i know it breaks this servers rules or whatever

[sick birch]

helpful for other data

[slate swan]

as in?

[slate swan]

it would never get verified

[scarlet sorrel]

what does getting verified do

[honest laurel]

Messages can get deleted, modified, etc

[sick birch]

say you wanted to find out which channel gets the most traffic, having a 2 column table with user ID and the # of their messages won't help

[slate swan]

it can benefit in allot of things actually

[slate swan]

eh?

[sick birch]

The biggest + would be that people actually trust your bot

Since it's been vetted by discord officially, and not some random bot that's going to get shut down in 2 weeks

[slate swan]

and bigger ratelimits!

[scarlet sorrel]

my server has 400 members and i dont even have community enabled on it, i hate the way discord forces you to do things in specific ways so i just try to stay under the radar

[keen mural]

how does a bot get verified

[slate swan]

its their app after all

[slate swan]

well talking about channel traffic, you could simply store the channel id with the message amount, no? or you meant it to be user specific?

[slate swan]

it needs to follow tos and it needs to be in 100+ guilds

[scarlet sorrel]

its already in 11 guilds

[keen mural]

ok

[sick birch]

I was only providing an example. Storing other data like channel ID, guild ID, things like that opens you up to a lot more metrics data collection to help you figure out the right way to go with your server

[slate swan]

hm inarguable

[scarlet sorrel]

yea thats what i do

not ID tho

just name

because i was big stupid when i wrote that part and i literally cannot change it now because it would mess everything up

[sick birch]

SELECT channel_id FROM messages WHERE channel_id = 12345 ORDER BY channel_id DESC

My SQL is rusty since I mostly use ORMs but you get the general idea

[scarlet sorrel]

i do things manual

[sick birch]

yeah one of the reasons to practice good code modularization early on

[scarlet sorrel]

🧑‍🌾

[honest laurel]

select * 👀

rip db

[scarlet sorrel]

its just Unicode data

dont be scared lol

[honest laurel]

Now it's just useless 😅

@sick birch sqlalchemy is actually very close to sql:

select(Model)
.where(Model.column = "some value")
.order_by(Model.created_at.desc())

And you can do complex aggregations too

[sick birch]

not much experience with sqlalchemy. I usually work with Prisma (the typescript client, not the python one)

but yeah, similar concept

[honest laurel]

It's hard to use something like prisma after sqlalchemy tbh 😅

[scarlet sorrel]

pretty much the only library i use in my bot to help me do much of anything is tabulate

everything else is just as needed

actually i can just send the imports lol

wait they might get me banned from here

these are NOT my imports they are just something i found in a different yet similar bot to mine so its a good example

import os
import re
import glob
import math
import json
import base64
import openai
import random
import asyncio
import discord
import requests
import warnings
import wolframalpha
import urllib.request
from io import StringIO
import datetime as etad
from datetime import datetime
from tabulate import tabulate
from psaw import PushshiftAPI
import time as timeorsomething
from googlesearch import search
from icrawler.builtin import GoogleImageCrawler

[sick birch]

could really do with some seperation of concerns

[scarlet sorrel]

but m o u n t a i n

[honest laurel]

import datetime as etad

[scarlet sorrel]

to fix the datetime error

[honest laurel]

just import datetime 🤷

[scarlet sorrel]

no

you cant

[honest laurel]

import datetime

now = datetime.datetime.now()

[slate swan]

huh? why not

[scarlet sorrel]

dude you cant

[honest laurel]

You can

[scarlet sorrel]

datetime overlaps with datetime

you cant just import datetime

[honest laurel]

^
@scarlet sorrel

[slate swan]

so? just use datetime.datetime.now()

[scarlet sorrel]

you cant

[slate swan]

datetime is a class

[scarlet sorrel]

^

[slate swan]

!e py import datetime print(datetime.datetime.now())

datetime overlaps with datetime

[slate swan]

datetime(module).datetime(class)

[scarlet sorrel]

you are only importing datetime

[honest laurel]

Just access it from datetime: datetime.datetime

you are only importing datetime not datetime and datetime

[jade tartan]

https://paste.pythondiscord.com/efuhurabeb.py

Someone

[scarlet sorrel]

trust me it causes errors

[honest laurel]

You don't have to import them

[scarlet sorrel]

you do

[honest laurel]

😐

[scarlet sorrel]

forget it jesus

[slate swan]

if you import the base module,you still have access to the objects and function inside it

[scarlet sorrel]

you guys never had to work with time very much

[honest laurel]

I work as python dev for 2 years already, you sure?

[scarlet sorrel]

yes

[honest laurel]

ok

[slate swan]

i remember doing this.

am not saying it doesnt work, but as per the pep8 standards, thats incorrect.

[honest laurel]

How do you guys deploy discord bots?

[maiden fable]

VPS

[honest laurel]

I mean the process itself

[maiden fable]

Ah

python bot.py

[slate swan]

i currently use railway.app which has github integration so i just need to create a project with the bot repository as base and enter the required envs

and a shell command as hunter mentioned forsure

please share bot.py

guys Please guide me about hosting

[plucky flower]

Can anyone tell me how to code python

I am totally new at all,,know nothing

[slate swan]

#965291480992321536

[slate swan]

What bot.py? Wdym to share

Ya

[slate swan]

#python-discussion would be better place for this, cause #discord-bots

Please

Am New to bots hm 🙂

@slate swan Have you attended AWS Summit

It's great

for AI

[slate swan]

Follow the docs quickstart https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/

[slate swan]

Hm

Ya

[slate swan]

Umm iI don't know anything about that

One minute

I am sending you details

Okay

This is a free user by AWS

Amazon Web Services

Umm

Suspicious

No

yeah not here please delete that or i will ping mods :))

Delete this

Ok

thank you <33

[onyx marten]

Hello Im Here To Help With Assignments And Etc! Dm For Help

[slate swan]

Can you please recommend an IDE for python?

[slate swan]

against the rule!

[slate swan]

Thanks but I don't think it's allowed here

[onyx marten]

No I Mean Teaching!

[dusky pine]

i need help on python homework 😟
this is hard

Create a variable with the value 4

it's so hard broooo

[onyx marten]

not helping

[slate swan]

vsc is good pycharm as well but its kinda heavy

[onyx marten]

sorry its denied!

[slate swan]

Vscode

[dusky pine]

LOLL

[slate swan]

I have it already

[dusky pine]

it was a joke, of course it's just x = 4

[slate swan]

Or VS2022

[slate swan]

ahh your wording is a bit confusing

[onyx marten]

im sorry

[slate swan]

Visual Studio Code is not so heavy

its like 42mbs of ram

[onyx marten]

im trying my best to get helpers badge so i can teach people!

[slate swan]

compared to pycharm which is 1200gb of ram

[slate swan]

My laptop has 16GB of RAM

[honest laurel]

I've set up deployment using docker swarm and gitlab-ci, works like a charm for small-medium sized projects

[slate swan]

nice

[slate swan]

well the role is quite hard to get and just helping wont really get it

[onyx marten]

Well then how do i get it

[dusky pine]

you have to be actively helping

[slate swan]

you need to help and master the language and you have to be active and humble ofc

Also helping in dms won't help you to get it..?

no

[onyx marten]

Roger That Ms.okimii!

[slate swan]

😔 i still need to learn docker

ive been helping here on a daily basis for about a year and i still dont have the helper role so dont think it will be easy ;)

oki is a good helper

sarthak has been here for way more tho

[slate swan]

no u

[honest laurel]

You can check where command was executed

[slate swan]

ctx.channel.id?

the channel/guild where the command was invoked?

3 pings😭

[honest laurel]

It's not that hard to learn, you just have to start somewhere

[slate swan]

cause there are 3+ ways 😳

[slate swan]

actually, never really needed it, but imma learn it now

[slate swan]

me who doesnt know how to even use a env:

[slate swan]

configs.py moment

haven't learned them nor used them😭

[honest laurel]

You can package any app into an image and run it anywhere, it's pretty useful

You won't have to setup your environment, dependencies, etc

@slate swan You just describe your build process like this:

FROM python:3.10-slim as build
ENV POETRY_VERSION=1.1.13

RUN apt-get -y update && apt-get -y install git

RUN pip install poetry==$POETRY_VERSION
COPY ./pyproject.toml ./poetry.lock ./
RUN poetry install --no-dev

WORKDIR /app

COPY ./src ./src
COPY ./config ./config
COPY ./resources ./resources
COPY ./alembic ./alembic
COPY alembic.ini main.py ./

ENV PYTHONPATH=$PYTHONPATH:/app/src
ENTRYPOINT ["poetry", "run", "python", "main.py"]

[slate swan]

since you would set an argument thats a textchannel object just use the id attr

typehint the channel arg to the suitable channel types, you can use arg.id then

[honest laurel]

Can't you right click and copy id?

[slate swan]

this seems easier than setting up an env everytime

[honest laurel]

Also code itself should look like this i think:

@commands.command(name="id")
async def get_channel_id(self, ctx: Context, channel: TextChannel):
    await ctx.send(channel.id)

[slate swan]

turn on developer options, you can hold on the channel and use Copy ID

[honest laurel]

Not sure about TextChannel here, maybe you can use some of the abstract classes

i.e. Snowflake

yes?

You can copy channel ids on mobile

It's the same app

[slate swan]

a tablet and a phone have the same client lol

[honest laurel]

Did you enable developer mode?

[slate swan]

channel_id needs to be an int

and dont use direct fetch calls

respond isnt a method....

oof

channel = bot.get_channel(id) or await bot.fetch_channel(id)

doesnt matter, a channel object still wont have it.

🍿

!d discord.utils.get

um yea sure

[unkempt canyon]

discord.utils.get

discord.utils.get(iterable, /, **attrs)```
A helper that returns the first element in the iterable that meets all the traits passed in `attrs`. This is an alternative for [`find()`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.utils.find "discord.utils.find").

When multiple attributes are specified, they are checked using logical AND, not logical OR. Meaning they have to meet every attribute passed in and not one of them.

To have a nested attribute search (i.e. search by `x.y`) then pass in `x__y` as the keyword argument.

uh?

🚶‍♂️ they had issue copying it

yea sure

!d discord.ext.tasks.loop

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ext.tasks.loop

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

[slate swan]

you can use any of these kwargs

[slate swan]

issues keep getting worse....

[slate swan]

this channels keeps getting more actib

[slate swan]

honestly, the issues dont even relate to dbots-

agreed

you need to start the task using auto_send.start() as well

ahh lovely it works

Screw nitro, all my homies got empty wallets

[slate swan]

wait before the bot is ready using the wait_until_ready method at the top of the task and start the task

[stone beacon]

Facts though

Alot of #databases questions get asked here

[slate swan]

at least they got money

[honest laurel]

your indentation is off

add 1 space

[slate swan]

where?

[slate swan]

already on

[honest laurel]

it's off by 1 space*

async def example():
    await a()
   await b()

[slate swan]

@honest laurel can you explain?

what/

[honest laurel]

All lines in function serverinfo have indent of 4 spaces, last line (await ctx.send(embed = serverinfoEmbed)) is indented with 3 spaces

[slate swan]

ohh

nope still not working

Replit?

It usually causes poor intendation, use a real ide, fix the indents and paste it back

[slate swan]

anyone?

[oak warren]

indentation issue

[honest laurel]

Is there an error when you run your code?

Send it

[slate swan]

done

[vale wing]

Replit sucks at indents also why are you even using it? Personal preference or seen it in the tutorials

[slate swan]

@vale wing

🧢

[vale wing]

And yeah following naming convention: lowerCamelCase is not for python at all (UpperCamelCase is used in classes), use snake_case for variables

[vale wing]

@slate swan I asked you to answer this question

Mention and cap emoji doesn't answer it anyhow

[slate swan]

tutorial indeed

[vale wing]

I just wanna know why are there so many replitters

And why not use the normal IDE

Like yall have PCs (don't mind me programming on phone 2 years ago)

[slate swan]

REASONS WHY PPL USE REPLIT :
1. device issue
Some ppl dont have pc/laptop so they use replit
2. No knowledge
some ppl dont know that there are better ide than replit

[honest laurel]

It's hard to go back to anything else if you used a good IDE for a while

[slate swan]

[honest laurel]

I personally use PyCharm because i use a lot of built-in features, VSCode is quite good too

[slate swan]

vs code extensions

[honest laurel]

It's not the same 😉

[slate swan]

im saying that vs code extension feature

[rain olive]

1. mobile IDEs exist
2. that's why we tell them to not use replit

[slate swan]

mobile ide 💀

[honest laurel]

Coding on mobile is pain and should be forbidden by international law

[vale wing]

I used vscode before I got free jetbrains license 😩

[slate swan]

imagine using mobile ide

[vale wing]

Pycharm professional feels very uh professional

[slate swan]

huh

[honest laurel]

Exactly!

[slate swan]

Pycharm is good but vs code is love

Notepad >>>

[slate swan]

RIP

word pad better

just code and copy paste

[vale wing]

The only thing I don't like about pycharm lint is this

self.stuff: Stuff = None  # lint says it's not supposed to be None so I gotta add it to typehint like Stuff | None```

[honest laurel]

Well, it's correct to add | None

[vale wing]

Maybe

But like it's none only in init

[honest laurel]

mypy deprecated implicit Optional | None

[honest laurel]

But it's none 😉

[regal pulsar]

facts

[vale wing]

🥲

[slate swan]

Even better than wordpad

[honest laurel]

Any typechecker would complain about it

[slate swan]

still, ctx doesnt have the members property, its the Guild object which does

woah discord is offering nitro for free again

[slate swan]

member_count faster than len(members)

Anyone here who is extremely experienced with working with discord api, kindly drop me a message

Im looking to engage someone

extremely experienced

[placid skiff]

Extremely uwu

[regal pulsar]

[regal pulsar]

yeah ik

[slate swan]

me

[glass tangle]

aside from the fact I'm not getting engaged today, I don't think I'm experienced enough

[regal pulsar]

lmfao

[slate swan]

am I the only one who misread that question or.....

[regal pulsar]

we all did i think

[slate swan]

thats a call for andy

[west wigeon]

what is that anyway? because that could be anything from "has actually read and used the API doc instead of blindly copy-pasting from stackoverflow" to "has actually written parts of the Discord API"

[slate swan]

contact discord developer support, ease

well, first of all if you have intentions of just making a bot, there are already libraries which wrap up the Discord API...

and i believe that most of the regulars here are no copy pasters

[west wigeon]

good to hear

try it and see,.... json is really unpredictable

[tropic burrow]

nothing happened

no errors

[slate swan]

while me with sqlite:

😔

why would you do this lmao

[tropic burrow]

idk how to do it with replit

[slate swan]

use sqlalchemy instead

[slate swan]

I'm bored

[slate swan]

meanwhile me documenting things noones ever gonna see

[slate swan]

||we|| ||are|| ||simply|| ||pointless||

+1

[west wigeon]

honest question: is the consistent use of non-standard spellings a stylistic choice?

also consider what happens if the bot succeeds in subtracting the victim's balance but fails to update the thief's. now you've made monkeybux vanish into the void.

[slate swan]

according to pep8 standards naming should make sense

[west wigeon]

not generally, i meant with reference to the code excerpt above: sucess for success, acccount for account, etc. makes my eyeballs itch. :)

but maybe as a crotchety old programmer who is out of touch with a younger coding culture, i'm missing something here.

(i.e. could be a stylistic choice intended to inflict discomfort on pedants?)

also the indentation of the else ...

(i mean, it will work, but is poor style)

otherwise, i can't see without more context why the command wouldn't work.

[honest laurel]

database transactions are atomic 🙂

(If used correctly)

[west wigeon]

yeah. but makes the problem more complicated. if just saving to a file, perhaps update the data structure in a single function instead of using two function calls, one to subtract, one to add.

would be an improvement

[honest laurel]

Hah, yeah, files are unreliable

[west wigeon]

(from examining that code excerpt the author probably isn't ready for databases yet)

[honest laurel]

I can't read sometimes

[west wigeon]

same :)

i see a lot of pure discord.py. i assume that's more typical than, say, Red here (which I use, and am tracking the development branch + PR's + patches to stay up to date)? i appreciate the modularity of Red, but my bot is fairly niche, and wonder if pure d.py wouldn't have been a better choice.

the only thing is, i do appreciate Red's modularity and think I'd miss it if I changed things now.

[silk fulcrum]

How can I install dpy2.0?

(im banned from dpy server)

[hazy schooner]

If anyone 18+yrs is interested, I just started a project connecting discord and web 3

Need some discord.py devs if anyone knows some good ones

[silk fulcrum]

I'm using ubuntu20.04, but i dont think it really matters

[honest laurel]

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

[silk fulcrum]

thx

[slate swan]

you should read the consequences of the update before upgrading - https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/migrating.html

[silk fulcrum]

already know them

[slate swan]

good

[silk fulcrum]

xD

[slate swan]

not only that...

[silk fulcrum]

should I list everything?

[slate swan]

no thanks

im dumb

[silk fulcrum]

stupid pycharm... for what did i upgrade

[misty stream]

little question can you get a cog function in the main.py file ?

if yes how ?

[weak moat]

Can you tell me how to calculate the list coin = ['COIN', 'ASCOIN'] and if the user enters the command .coin COIN it checks if there is an intersection point after .coin in the list and outputs either a runtime error actions

[glass tangle]

what would be involved in the calculation?

[weak moat]

this is coin = ['PENTA', 'SPARK', 'PLYUM', 'TEPLOTA']

and the value variable specified by the user

if value == coin:

[weak moat]

doing this gives me an error

[glass tangle]

let's take one of the coins... which one?

[weak moat]

SPARK

[glass tangle]

ok, what do you know about a SPARK?

[weak moat]

in what sense?

[glass tangle]

how about, in the same sense as you want to do this calculation

what are the instructions telling you?

[weak moat]

Let's make it easier.
How do I check if a user-entered value variable is in the list coin = ['PENTA', 'SPARK', 'PLYUM', 'TEPLOTA']

[slate swan]

if value in coin:
  ...

?

[weak moat]

I'll try it now

[glass tangle]

let's go back to the spark coin... what are all the things you know about it?

[weak moat]

Many thanks for the help

[slate swan]

welcome

[slate swan]

even I don't understand your point here tbh....

[glass tangle]

let's start with this calculation... what would the calculation do?

[slate swan]

....?

[weak moat]

I don't understand what he is talking about either.

[slate swan]

lmao

[glass tangle]

are there instructions?

[slate swan]

....

[glass tangle]

do the instructions say: "calculate the number of coins"?

[weak moat]

jimm already helped me, you don't have to break your brain

[glass tangle]

if there are no instructions, I don't understand the purpose of the exercise?

if there -are- instructions, what are they?

[shrewd apex]

[weak moat]

Do you know how to work with the PIL library?

[glass tangle]

me? sorry, I've not worked with it before

[slate swan]

not much but decent, though their docs are pretty much detailed -> https://pillow.readthedocs.io

[weak moat]

how to make text not go out of bounds?

[glass tangle]

how do you measure the bounds?

[warped mirage]

Guys can someone tell me what could I add as a premium feature for premium bot , Idk what would be good to add

[slate swan]

you could use the textwrap module for that

wait what

weird

https://pypi.org/project/textwrap3/

import textwrap
margin = offset = 40
for line in textwrap.wrap(text, width=40):
    draw.text((margin, offset), line, font=font, fill="#aa0000")
    offset += font.getsize(line)[1]

an example

[weak moat]

this is for me right?

[slate swan]

yes it is, if that doesnt work, there are several more solutions

https://stackoverflow.com/questions/8257147/wrap-text-in-pil stackoverflow 😔 is always there to copy the codes

[weak moat]

text_body = f"""{DESCRIPTION}"""
this is my text

[glass tangle]

you might want to think about this problem, how would you know a letter of a particular size would fit into an area?

[slate swan]

tbh, there's not point of premium features...

[weak moat]

import textwrap
margin = offset = 40
for line in textwrap.wrap(text_body, width=40):
    draw.text((margin, offset), line, font=font, fill="#aa0000")
    offset += font.getsize(line)[1]

is this how it should be done?

[slate swan]

hm set the margin and offset as necessary

[warped mirage]

Ik this is weird but what’s the best way of making money if uknow what I mean

[slate swan]

and the width

[weak moat]

okay

[glass tangle]

find or invent somethign that someone else would want to buy

[slate swan]

I dont think there will any be point of charging people money for a discord bot cz a lot of bots could do those stuffs for free, you could simply set up a donation system with a bit extra utilities, thin upon those then

[warped mirage]

Hmm true

[weak moat]

What variable do I need to output here?

[warped mirage]

Can someone spend some time telling me a lot : bunch of features a bot can have because idk

I only know stuff like ticket system suggest warn ban and that stuff

Nothing to complex

[shrewd apex]

why don't u just get the img size and use that to measure what u write

[glass tangle]

what are the -units- of the size of the image?

[shrewd apex]

aren't images in pixels?

[maiden fable]

Pixels?

[glass tangle]

sure, that is one possible unit. and,

[shrewd apex]

pil only works with pixels as far as i know

[glass tangle]

if you see an image, how else can you mesure it? what other units are there?

[shrewd apex]

lmao lemme tell u u go take a 15cm scale and start measuring....

[glass tangle]

ohhh, another unit is cm!

[tight mica]

name = int(user) this is what you are doing

[shrewd apex]

u can use ctx.author.mention

[glass tangle]

so, you can find out how wide an image is, -in CM-, ahd how high that image is, also -in CM-

[shrewd apex]

[tight mica]

no, its embed field name

[glass tangle]

so, then you will know the size of the image in cm

[shrewd apex]

yeah they don't work in titles and footers

[slate swan]

Some mini games, moderation commands, music, useless commands, system like bank, casino, etc... umm and... idk?

[shrewd apex]

only in description and values

[tight mica]

not in field name too right?

[shrewd apex]

and their are like a gazillion bots like that

[shrewd apex]

yeah

u should try to focus and narrow down to a topic

[glass tangle]

@slate swanbecause you want to know if a string of characters will fit in the image

[shrewd apex]

i meant for ☝️

[slate swan]

Cause discord's api is limited to create only these stuff....
Just don't make the bot >>>

[tight mica]

no?

[shrewd apex]

nah its about how u get creative

[tight mica]

there are a lots of thing a bot can have

mine has some minecraft related commands and heavy image processing stuff
also other stuff from different web apis

[slate swan]

Still it feels a lot limited... I mean ofc discord isn't a development or gaming site but a chat service anyways

[glass tangle]

is there a way to take a string, and -render- it, in a particular font, to see if that string would fit on the image, given the font is a particular size?

[shrewd apex]

there might be a few limitations in the api but it's more than enough to support ur imaginations

[slate swan]

whats point....

[tight mica]

wait gotta check my old code

what module are you using to -render- text

[shrewd apex]

pil Image.new and Imagedraw should work

[tight mica]

ye

[glass tangle]

@slate swanthe point is, how will you know if a string of characters will fit on an image

[tight mica]

draw = ImageDraw.Draw(bgimage)
draw.textsize(string, font) # returns a tuple with w, h```
then check if its larger than the main bg image

[slate swan]

If you wanna learn stuff, good to start with these...

[shrewd apex]

u can basically take the font size which is in pixels

and then check len of string

multiply...

[tight mica]

why not just use built in functions

[slate swan]

😔 nothing's unique now ig, so cant complain

[regal pulsar]

lmao

[glass tangle]

are all the characters in the font the same width?

[regal pulsar]

time to make a meme bot for the 387547th time

[slate swan]

Make a dashboard music player to control your bot's music from site/app

[shrewd apex]

and once it's out it won't be unique

[slate swan]

indeed

[shrewd apex]

there will always be people to follow suit

[regal pulsar]

that would be more inconvenient for the user though

[tight mica]

depends on the font

[regal pulsar]

🫠

[shrewd apex]

so what u need is to be unique and a smash at the same time so that others don't stand a chance

[tight mica]

use this instead

draw = ImageDraw.Draw(bgimage)
draw.textsize(string, font) # returns a tuple with w, h```
then check if its larger than the main bg image

[glass tangle]

@tight micayes. AND it depends on the -size- of the font too

[slate swan]

Make your own spotify (without those annoying ads), no bots involved

[regal pulsar]

like ydgrassil

its userphone is really cool

[slate swan]

use the spotify api ease

[shrewd apex]

lmao u can just mod the Spotify app

[slate swan]

or just use the brave browser

[regal pulsar]

lol

[shrewd apex]

the ads are on the client side

[slate swan]

smort

[tight mica]

yes

[regal pulsar]

they are?

[shrewd apex]

yeah

[regal pulsar]

i see

[shrewd apex]

downloads are on server side so no way arnd that

[unkempt canyon]

Rules

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

[regal pulsar]

;/

[glass tangle]

@tight micamaybe, there is a way of taking a string, a font and a font size, and be able to tell how large -in CM- that string is, so then you know if it will fit on an image of a particular size

[tight mica]

yes

[slate swan]

wtf is - word -

in cm?

[tight mica]

command i think

[slate swan]

centimetres

[glass tangle]

@slate swanextra emphasis

[slate swan]

uhuh

[shrewd apex]

😂

[tight mica]

just make a command which takes the string, font, and font size as the input
create a font = ImageText.truetypeorwhatever("fontname.ttf", fontsize)
then just do the thing i mentioned

[slate swan]

wonderful idea

[slate swan]

Will change with devices ig...?

[shrewd apex]

what's the default size or a full scale size of an embed image again

[glass tangle]

it could

[slate swan]

no

sizes remain constant iirc

[glass tangle]

that's why you need the size of the rendered string

[shrewd apex]

only ur screen size changes 😎

[slate swan]

Nah there's smaller pixels too

yes

[shrewd apex]

nope it's constant

[slate swan]

I'll just go play ehh this is too much

Like in a 4k screen, more pixel density than one on an 1080 one, with the same dimentions?

[tight mica]

zoom levels 😐

[slate swan]

^

[glass tangle]

good... I think you get this idea

this is an example of how you need to be able to think

[shrewd apex]

yeah correct just checked

Pixels come in many different sizes, each having their advantages and disadvantages. Larger pixels are able to collect more photons, due to their increase in surface area. This allows more photons to be converted into photoelectrons, increasing the sensitivity of the sensor. However, this is at the cost of resolution.

[shrewd apex]

ok back to topic

[vocal plover]

That's camera resolution not display resolution

[shrewd apex]

before someone rule7 us

[tight mica]

are we going off topic

oh u already mentioned

[shrewd apex]

lmao

[glass tangle]

I guess text strings and their size when rendered, is off the topic of discord bots?

[tight mica]

because they went to the visible size

not their pixel size

[glass tangle]

but in any case.... -all- programming, is solving problems...

and you have to be able to think about problems

you might know how big a pixel is, in CM

[tight mica]

not possible if CM = centimetre

[shrewd apex]

lmao u take a joke too hard

[weak moat]

I have a test My name is PYCODESS\n I am a programmer. How do I make a line definition set character limits on each line?

[glass tangle]

anyway

[slate swan]

just split it after ever length?

[shrewd apex]

i believe textwrap is an inbuilt lib doing that

[slate swan]

Well if that's ^ your actual question, maybe this helps?

[glass tangle]

have fun everyone

[slate swan]

show traceback

[slate swan]

you too

defer the response first

ctx.response.defer()

top of your command logic

[wet crystal]

how do you do that?

Does anybody here know what Panda meant when he said you can make on_message a listener

[slate swan]

@bot_instance.listen("on_message")
async def uwu_on_message_listener(message):
  ...

''' or '''

@bot_instance.listen()
async def on_message(message):
  ...

thats how you make listeners

[wet crystal]

the uwu one is definetly better

[slate swan]

indeed

yes

[wet crystal]

@bot_instance doesn't exist

[slate swan]

use whatever you have defined your variable

[wet crystal]

oh

[slate swan]

as the instance of a Bot object

[wet crystal]

lol

[slate swan]

and on a side note, you can create multiple listeners for the same event to keep your code organized

import asyncio

@bot_ins.listen("on_message")
async def warn_message(message: discord.Message):
  await message.reply("You know what?")

@bot_ins.listen("on_message")
async def see_off_message(message: discord.Message):
  await asyncio.sleep(2)
  await message.reply("bye")

@bot_ins.listen("on_message")
async def throw_message(message: discord.Message):
  await asyncio.sleep(5)
  await message.author.kick()

[wet crystal]

can u give a example for a bot object?

[wet crystal]

thx

[slate swan]

from discord.ext import commands

Called when a [`Member`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.Member "discord.Member") joins a [`Guild`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.Guild "discord.Guild").

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

[warped mirage]

I know that but I must add a I’d for a channel

Idk how to make it multi guild

[wet crystal]

Kind of late but why even tho I have done the first version
this pops up

"bot_intents" is not defined

[slate swan]

bot_intents isnt defined....

the error pretty much says loud for itself

[warped mirage]

does anyone know how to do it?

[ashen perch]

is anyone aware if modals can contain images in the pop-up window?

[winged bone]

currently they can only contain small and large text inputs

[ashen perch]

ok thank you just curious has there been any news when modals will get a new update?

[winged bone]

I don't know, maybe ask in the discord developers server: https://discord(dot)gg/discord-developers

[placid skiff]

Maybe he was just lonely and typed here to get some company

[slate swan]

makes me cry

[robust fulcrum]

Guys how can we send a error using ctx whenever any error occurs in our project

[warped mirage]

@commands.command()
    async def wm_set(self, ctx):
        async with aiosqlite.connect("wm.db") as db:
            cursor = await db.cursor()
            await cursor.execute("CREATE TABLES IF NOT EXISTS wm(guild_id INTEGER, channel_id INTEGER)")
            await db.commit()
            await cursor.execute("SELECT channel_id FROM wm WHERE guild_id = ?", (ctx.guild.id)
            )``` @slate swan opinions?

would this work

[visual island]

You can use on_command_error event for command related errors (it takes 2 parameters, the Context and the Exception raised).

[slate swan]

yes it will work but I suggest adding a comma (,) after ctx.guild.id to make it a tuple -> (ctx.guild.id,)

[warped mirage]

oh ye i forgot that

[slate swan]

since it may cause an error

[warped mirage]

done

[slate swan]

nice

and as I said, create a single connection

multiple connections to a single file could cause errors

if many commands are run at once

a nice chunk of your data could be lost

[visual island]

also, it is CREATE TABLE without the s

[slate swan]

pfftt

[warped mirage]

so like async def setup_db something like that?

[slate swan]

you need to call that somewhere, I still recommend to upgrade to v2

[placid skiff]

Well i mean he can read because he readed the messages in this channel, and he can speak english because otherwise he could not speak with us, so he read the error and there is no way he didn t understand it

[slate swan]

good night

and no comments

this level of understanding is beyond my level of understanding

[placid skiff]

I wish to sleep but it's 14:04 so i think that i will just take a coffee

Oh you're in Europe, i would've never said it

[slate swan]

lol

[placid skiff]

Or in Africa...

Good

[wet crystal]

is it possible to respond to the message that invoked the command?

[placid skiff]

!d discord.ext.commands.Context.reply

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ext.commands.Context.reply

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

A shortcut method to [`send()`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.Context.send "discord.ext.commands.Context.send") to reply to the [`Message`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.Message "discord.Message") referenced by this context.

For interaction based contexts, this is the same as [`send()`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.Context.send "discord.ext.commands.Context.send").

New in version 1.6.

Changed in version 2.0: This function will now raise [`TypeError`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/exceptions.html#TypeError "(in Python v3.10)") or [`ValueError`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/exceptions.html#ValueError "(in Python v3.10)") instead of `InvalidArgument`.

[ripe blaze]

is there a way to set embed image to a local file instead of url?

[loud junco]

how to randomly choose 3 item from a list with random

[placid skiff]

Never studied greek so dunno precisely

[slate swan]

library?

[ripe blaze]

discordpy

[placid skiff]

!d random.shuffle could be

[unkempt canyon]

random.shuffle

random.shuffle(x[, random])```
Shuffle the sequence *x* in place.

The optional argument *random* is a 0-argument function returning a random float in [0.0, 1.0); by default, this is the function [`random()`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/random.html#random.random "random.random").

To shuffle an immutable sequence and return a new shuffled list, use `sample(x, k=len(x))` instead.

Note that even for small `len(x)`, the total number of permutations of *x* can quickly grow larger than the period of most random number generators. This implies that most permutations of a long sequence can never be generated. For example, a sequence of length 2080 is the largest that can fit within the period of the Mersenne Twister random number generator.

Deprecated since version 3.9, will be removed in version 3.11: The optional parameter *random*.

[slate swan]

!e

import random

print(random.choices([1, 2, 3, 4], k=3))

[unkempt canyon]

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

[4, 1, 3]

[slate swan]

Wow great

Now I'll add k instead of a for loop

💀

[loud junco]

thanks

[slate swan]

Does it repeat ? The numbers

[slate swan]

set_image("attachment://image.png") the file has to be in the same dir

[slate swan]

nope

!e
import random

print(random.choices([3, 4], k=3))

[unkempt canyon]

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

[3, 4, 4]

[slate swan]

@slate swan 🤨

#bot-commands <- dont spam commands

[slate swan]

you do know that the list only has 2 items, so it will

use a set and a for loop with the len function

um for loop better lol

[loud junco]

its alright the player would love it to repeat anyways

i use for loop

but not in this case

[maiden fable]

What happened

[slate swan]

I just simple remove the item that is appended to a list

[shrewd apex]

!d random.sample

[unkempt canyon]

random.sample

random.sample(population, k, *, counts=None)```
Return a *k* length list of unique elements chosen from the population sequence or set. Used for random sampling without replacement.

Returns a new list containing elements from the population while leaving the original population unchanged. The resulting list is in selection order so that all sub-slices will also be valid random samples. This allows raffle winners (the sample) to be partitioned into grand prize and second place winners (the subslices).

Members of the population need not be [hashable](https://docs.python.org/3/glossary.html#term-hashable) or unique. If the population contains repeats, then each occurrence is a possible selection in the sample.

[slate swan]

oh lol

[shrewd apex]

btw way do u know how to leave a code alive and running on pycharm?

etc not fall asleep

[loud junco]

press run 🤣

[shrewd apex]

i do and leave it arnd for some time it falls asleep is it due to my computer sleeping?

[slate swan]

Goto power options and disable screen time

[slate swan]

yeah either set your computer to not go to sleep from the power options

[shrewd apex]

yeah guess i will do that

[slate swan]

but when it comes to power saving...better use a vps..

[loud junco]

btw
u need to pay every month or just one time

[slate swan]

most organizations impose subscription-only schemes, but there are organizations where you can buy servers for lifetime too

[loud junco]

alright

[slate swan]

Anyone?

Wtf

@slate swan wht?

Indents

I tried

Not working 😂

Can u paste the code on

Ok

!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]

Here

Wht is this?

pastebin

💀

Ok

[celest remnant]

https://prnt.sc/nUgGJySZ9U12

anyone knows how to use this command?

[ripe blaze]

reroll [mention a text channel] [id of giveaway]

[slate swan]

@slate swan done now?

[heady sluice]

you leaked your server

[slate swan]

@heady sluice server?

@slate swan now what bruh

Sparky ded 😂

[vale wing]

Is this replit

Just tell me why are you using it (I need it for anonymous social survey)

[slate swan]

Anonymous social survey ok

[vale wing]

Yes

[ripe blaze]

Is there a way to make it so when a user presses on a hyperlink in an embed it will copy something to their clipboard?

[vale wing]

It can only be implemented by the site the hyperlink leads to

[spring verge]

is it only me or bot cant use external emoji even if it has that perm

just cuz everyone role is missing that perm

[dapper cobalt]

Make sure it has access to the emoji

[spring verge]

it has

someone told me its cuz interaction is a webhook

so it uses everyone perm

[dapper cobalt]

Make sure you have the emoji's id and name

[spring verge]

its working in every other server where everyone role has external emoji perm

u can also try

[vapid grove]

Is there a way to make on_message event work only in some channels and not in all?

[slate swan]

make it id specific

async def on_message(message):
    if message.channel.id == ...: ...

    or 
    
     if message.channel.id in (...): ...```

[slate swan]

😔i would do the opposite to not care about indentation

async def on_message(msg):
    if msg.channel.id not in (enabled_channel_ids): return
    # the code

[maiden fable]

Same

[slate swan]

I want whatever the arg is (which I want to use it is as number), to search the file_number and if it finds a result, to send the number

E.g, !insert 611, and the bot to take the 611 number from file_number, and send it

If that number arg is not in the file_number, to answer that this number is not recorded

[slate swan]

same

lol

but anyways, there's no point of me making id specific features 😔

[slate swan]

@slate swan is there any way I could have roles and channels mentionable within the same argument?

😔 lightbulb*

typing.Union

[slate swan]

tried that, the command doesnt even show up

mind if i try and tell in a few minutes?

don't have my laptop with me rn

sure, thankee

[placid skiff]

Tried typing.Any?

[slate swan]

wait

[slate swan]

i doubt the converter can be able to parse the object

not sure really

is there an event that works when u use a command ?

[placid skiff]

I doubt it too but it's worth a try

[slate swan]

no.

tbh I'd just take a normal string argument and use the roleconverter and textchannelconverter to get the object inside the function

[placid skiff]

!d discord.ext.commands.on_command

[slate swan]

weird

[slate swan]

hm I see.....but if I just had to do that, I could ask the user for id

[placid skiff]

https://docs.disnake.dev/en/latest/ext/commands/api.html?highlight=on_command#disnake.disnake.ext.commands.on_command

classic ways

[slate swan]

tnx

[paper sluice]

for file_number, rarity, position in map(lambda x: x.strip('\n').split('\t'), open('rarity_table.txt')

[slate swan]

nope, converters can work with name, mentions and IDs, any of them

@plugin.command
@lightbulb.option(name="arg", description="role or channel")
@lightbulb.command("test", "lalalalala")
@lightbulb.implements(lightbulb.PrefixCommand)
async def foo(context: lightbulb.PrefixContext) -> None:
    role = await lightbulb.RoleConverter(context).convert(context.options.arg)
    channel = await lightbulb.GuildChannelConverter(context).convert(context.options.arg)``` this is functional, tho there should be some way to take Union args

[slate swan]

weird, I see

[slate swan]

thats how literally every library works...

[heady sluice]

this is cursed

[slate swan]

Ikr, thanks though

[slate swan]

elaborate?

[heady sluice]

it's a creature of demons

[slate swan]

    for file_number, rarity, position in map(lambda x: x.strip('\n').split('\t')), open('rarity_table.txt'):
        print(file_number)```

discord.ext.commands.errors.CommandInvokeError: Command raised an exception: TypeError: map() must have at least two arguments.

[paper sluice]

put a ) in the end

[slate swan]

average discord.py user running away from decorators.

[paper sluice]

lol

[heady sluice]

[slate swan]

Why ? I get error when I do that

[vocal snow]

doesn't discord.py 2.0's application command implementation also require a lot of decorators though

[paper sluice]

ah wait

for file_number, rarity, position in map(lambda x: x.strip('\n').split('\t'), open('rarity_table.txt'))

[paper sluice]

like 2 lol

[heady sluice]

no

[slate swan]

Ok thanks, but it doesn't sync with the arg number parameter

[slate swan]

not really, from what i see in the examples

[paper sluice]

ah i didnt read your question, use a database or json for that. .txt is not good for this kind of stuff

[slate swan]

I use sqlite db but even with db I don't know how I can sync the number arg parameter with file_number in the db data

[vocal snow]

...

[slate swan]

discord.gg/djs

[paper sluice]

u can write a query like ("SELECT ... FROM table WHERE arg=?", arg) to get the row from the db

[slate swan]

Damn #help-grapes message

3 pings

and its inside a object ```js
{
value: "",
label: "",
description: "",

const mySecret = ""
}

thats your own code.

[paper sluice]

do u know js?
