[livid hinge]

ok lets move on

[slate swan]

yes pls

[livid hinge]

.topic

[lament depot]

**What commands/features are you proud of making?**

Suggest more topics here!

[slate swan]

i was gonna do that

[livid hinge]

o๑p

[slate swan]

making my bot self destruct

[livid hinge]

i am proud of a chat cmd

[slate swan]

ping 😔

[slate swan]

chat cmd?

[livid hinge]

oh mine does that +kill

[slate swan]

elaborate so we can copy

[slate swan]

Bot.latency 👁️ 👁️

[livid hinge]

lmao

[warped mirage]

Seems correct to me

[slate swan]

ehhyes

[livid hinge]

it tells its ip and kills itself

good for double-responses

[slate swan]

mine shuts my whole pc down so it zombifies the ws connection😳

[slate swan]

(ctx.guild.id, ctx.channel.id, 'xyz',)```

[livid hinge]

dayum thats further than mine

you incapacitate the machine

[warped mirage]

I already closed it but I didn’t add the , at the end yet so I’ll add it

[slate swan]

what can i say im a talented human bean

[slate swan]

just make it delete the source files and then shut down

[livid hinge]

lol

self-nuke

[slate swan]

seems fun to do

[slate swan]

no ill make a new one that over loads my psu and makes my pc explode

[dusky pine]

you need to pass in a tuple as the second argument !!

[slate swan]

🏚️

[slate swan]

you have attained to point to shitposting now

[dusky pine]

like (ctx.guild.id, ctx.channel.id, "blah",) :3

[heavy shard]

i made my bot interact with console it was launched from

[warped mirage]

🥱….. ok

[livid hinge]

until ur mom is using the pc

[slate swan]

😳

[heavy shard]

accepting console commands, to be precise

[livid hinge]

and it explodes

[slate swan]

oh...um..yeah maybe

[slate swan]

just use os.system

!d os.system

[unkempt canyon]

os.system

os.system(command)```
Execute the command (a string) in a subshell. This is implemented by calling the Standard C function `system()`, and has the same limitations. Changes to [`sys.stdin`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/sys.html#sys.stdin "sys.stdin"), etc. are not reflected in the environment of the executed command. If *command* generates any output, it will be sent to the interpreter standard output stream. The C standard does not specify the meaning of the return value of the C function, so the return value of the Python function is system-dependent.

On Unix, the return value is the exit status of the process encoded in the format specified for [`wait()`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/os.html#os.wait "os.wait").

[heavy shard]

the opposite 🙂 getting user input from console

[slate swan]

@slate swan we need your views, how was it?

[livid hinge]

be sure to vigorously sanitize any user input

[heavy shard]

it was small happy potato acchievement

[slate swan]

it was beginnerish

[livid hinge]

it was ok

[slate swan]

blocks the bots heart😔

[slate swan]

I'll go to sleep, im reading weird things now instead of whats written

[livid hinge]

[heavy shard]

import aioconsole
inp = await ainput(">")

[slate swan]

dont forget to turn of your phone or phone go || BOOM 💥 ||

[slate swan]

await cannot be used outside of an async function

[dusky pine]

ah, top-level await lmao

[alpine pewter]

Anyone able to show me an example of how to store user data?
For example, they type /token and it puts the value in a .db or .json?

Or just point me to the right video/article/thing

[slate swan]

trust
reminds me I dont even have a screen proc yet, thanks okimii

[livid hinge]

ey wait

[heavy shard]

it was pseudo-code 😐

[slate swan]

too bad my python interpreter(my brain) says its invalid😌

[livid hinge]

protip: if you pipe your code into python -m asyncio, you could do top-level await

[slate swan]

👍

[heavy shard]

installs patch into okimii's interpreter

[livid hinge]

never actually tried it, YMMV

[slate swan]

monkey patching!

[slate swan]

monkey patching a monkey 💀

[livid hinge]

on a typewriter

[slate swan]

hellish

[warped mirage]

@slate swan my current errors are adding tuples so I’ll do that quickly

[slate swan]

just do os.remove("C:\Windows\System32") for that top level async 😳

[maiden fable]

You need to know how to use sqlite3 for the same

[heavy shard]

i use linux 😦

[slate swan]

asynchronous kill....

no top level async for you

[livid hinge]

fool me twice... can't get fooled again

[slate swan]

trust me🙂

ive done it

[warped mirage]

Hey finally bot gives an error

[livid hinge]

sure

[warped mirage]

welcome message is (None,)

[slate swan]

a monkey, monkey patching a monkey🐵

[livid hinge]

oh then .. where is the None var set

[warped mirage]

Lemme check

[livid hinge]

await os.exit()

[warped mirage]

 @commands.command()
    async def set_msg(self, ctx):
        async with aiosqlite.connect("wm.db") as db:
            cursor = await db.cursor()
            await cursor.execute("SELECT welcome  FROM wm where guild_id = ?", (ctx.guild.id,))
            data = await cursor.fetchone()

            if not data:
             await cursor.execute("INSERT INTO wm(guild_id, channel_id, welcome) VALUES(?,?,?)", (ctx.guild.id, ctx.channel.id, 'xyz',))
             await db.commit()
             return await ctx.send(f"Welcome message has been set!")
            
            await cursor.execute("SELECT welcome  FROM wm WHERE guild_id = ?", (ctx.guild.id,))
            mesg = await cursor.fetchone()
            if not mesg: return await ctx.send("There is no welcome message currently set.", delete_after = 10)
            return await ctx.send(f"welcome message is {mesg}")``` this is the code idk

[slate swan]

my sign to sleep ig

oh wait its 6 am already wtf...

[livid hinge]

!e

import asyncio, os
async def main():
    await os._exit(127)
asyncio.run(main())```

[unkempt canyon]

@livid hinge :warning: Your eval job has completed with return code 127.

[No output]

[slate swan]

while True:  await __import__("os").exit()
```😳

[maiden fable]

Why r u connecting repeatedly? It's gonna error out if there are multiple command invocations at the same time

[slate swan]

there's no point, i ve probably said that more than 20 times now

[livid hinge]

turned out it was _exit

[warped mirage]

can u help me make it all into one connection

[livid hinge]

smh

[maiden fable]

Use a botvar and connect it in setup_hook or smth

[slate swan]

told you 5-6 times now

[warped mirage]

...

[slate swan]

privates😔

[livid hinge]

anyone made a bot that can cooperate with other instances of the bot

[slate swan]

shards?

[warped mirage]

bruh my setups are in cogs and mainn.py

[livid hinge]

kinda yeah

[warped mirage]

xd

[slate swan]

imagine importing every iteration /s

[slate swan]

well discord's shards

[livid hinge]

sorry sorry

[slate swan]

discord has a system which assigns instances of the same bot to certain guilds which those instances are called shards

[livid hinge]

shards split up the load right? i mean communicate and stuffs

[slate swan]

thats the reason pc go boom

[livid hinge]

like, for example, shutting themself down if another one is running

[slate swan]

for a second i believed that it'll exit the program on every iteration

[slate swan]

instance detection?

[warped mirage]

damn

anyways can someone help me make all my connections into 1 . IN a ({COG})

[slate swan]

@livid hinge you can probably check the channels history and then check the 2 recent messages and if theyre from the same author in this case the own bot it just logs out of the gateway and then you just connect again

[livid hinge]

yeah that could work ig

[slate swan]

this would only work with 2 instances tho its a hard coded solution imo and theirs probably a better way

i wonder why discord doesnt check the websocket connections

because to make a ws handshake you would need to send an IDENTIFY payload with your bot token so why does discord not save the payload and checks for multiple instances of the same payload

[warped mirage]

Ok someone ping me if u can help

[livid hinge]

hmm good question

why not ask here? @warped mirage

[slate swan]

({#discord-bots message })

[maiden fable]

Because of AutoShardedBot

[slate swan]

wait i thought you needed just one IDENTIFY payload and discord sharded the bot?

[maiden fable]

No

It's just like running different instances of bot

[slate swan]

we learn new things everyday dont we

[glad cradle]

k

[slate swan]

yas

[slate swan]

Hey everyone i need help making my discord bot there's a error w my code and i need some help

How can I rerun the command when the reaction is pressed?

[maiden fable]

!d discord.ext.commands.Command.invoke

[unkempt canyon]

Not gonna happen.

No documentation found for the requested symbol.

[maiden fable]

Smh

[slate swan]

great bot

[dapper tendon]

Can I make a music bot with dpy 2.0 ?

[maiden fable]

U can but against ToS

[slate swan]

wait so how do I do it?

[dapper tendon]

How ?

[slate swan]

you'll use something like youtube-dl to download the song which is already breaking youtube tos.

[maiden fable]

Try looking at the source of that command

.source topic

Smh

[slate swan]

.source topic

[lament mesa]

{
"t":"event",
"d":...
"op":opcode
"s":s
}``` this is what data received from the discord gateway looks like right?
I suppose `"d"` is the event-related payload, but what is `"op"` and `"s"`?

[slate swan]

@maiden fable basically @bot.commands() isn't working.

[maiden fable]

op is the code sent by the Discord API

[slate swan]

what's your code so far?

[maiden fable]

It's bot.command, not commands

[lament mesa]

is it random?

[maiden fable]

https://discord.com/developers/docs/topics/opcodes-and-status-codes#gateway-gateway-opcodes
@lament mesa

[slate swan]

Yeah ik

[maiden fable]

This is used for enum purposes, to identify the event

[lament mesa]

thanks, but what is "s"

[slate swan]

import discord
from discord.ext import commands
from discord.ext import task

bot = commands.Bot(command_prefix = "/")
bot = commands.Bot(command_prefix="!")
bot = discord.Client()
@bot.command()
async def ping(ctx):
	await ctx.channel.send("pong")

I removed my token btw bc of the server

Oh I realise now there's a error

[slate swan]

Why do you have two lines for the prefix?

[maiden fable]

https://discord.com/developers/docs/topics/gateway#payloads-gateway-payload-structure

[slate swan]

Mistake lol

But it still dosent work.

[maiden fable]

U need that for the RESUME payload

[warped mirage]

Yo can someone help me please

[slate swan]

Anyone know why?

[lament mesa]

hmm, i see

[maiden fable]

The installation is fucked. Reinstall the module

[slate swan]

yeah

or remove the third line

It says that now.

I don't even have a Client() so prolly remove that

I reinstalled the command module

So idk 🤷

[warped mirage]

Nah I mean if someone can help me here fo ping me

Because there’s no point asking all the time

[slate swan]

import discord
from discord.ext import commands
from discord.ext import tasks

bot = commands.Bot(command_prefix = "/")
bot = commands.Bot(command_prefix="!")

@bot.command()
async def ping(ctx):
    await ctx.channel.send("pong")

@slate swan try that?

Alright

[wide tartan]

It's tasks not task

[slate swan]

and make sure when you run it's like bot.run("token")

[wide tartan]

the import task doesn't exist within d.py

[slate swan]

that makes sense

[slate swan]

@wide tartan do yk about this?

[wide tartan]

Can you elaborate on what you mean?

[slate swan]

when I press the reaction, it will re-run the command (give another topic)

Still not working @wide tartan

[wide tartan]

Use wait_for

[magic pond]

how ?

[wide tartan]

What's the issue?

[slate swan]

Id wait for what though?

Idk tbh im new at this Discord bot programming

When I try !ping in my server no reply.

[wide tartan]

'reaction'

[slate swan]

I add everything back in my token and bot.run("token")

[wide tartan]

Show your whole file (not the token part though)

[slate swan]

I can't show the token in here

Server dosent let me.

[wide tartan]

Ik

Dont put the token here

Just show the code without the token

[slate swan]

reaction = await bot.wait_for("reaction_add", check=check) ?

[wide tartan]

Yes

[slate swan]

it would wait how many times?

import discord
from discord.ext import commands
from discord.ext import tasks
#TOKEN would be here
bot = commands.Bot(command_prefix = "/")
bot = commands.Bot(command_prefix="!")

@bot.command()
async def ping(ctx):
    await ctx.channel.send("pong")
    bot.run("TOKEN")

Idk what the issue is tbh

[slate swan]

Unindent the bot.run

[wide tartan]

Well, do you want it to keep waiting or do you want it to just wait once?

[slate swan]

Alr

[wide tartan]

.

Why do you have 2 bot variables

[slate swan]

infinite

Idk I followed some guy on disc who was helping me

I undentited it that's my output

[slate swan]

means your bots token is invalid

[wide tartan]

Make an on_reaction_add event for that then

[slate swan]

Damn it shouldn't be

Ill reset it

[slate swan]

but I still want it to detect if the eaction is pressed nto added

[wide tartan]

That event basically detects reactions

[slate swan]

so either added or pressed?

[wide tartan]

Yes

[slate swan]

I just reseted it @slate swan and it says the same thing

[slate swan]

whats your code now?

Same thing different token.

and does your bot have permission to send messages?

[slate swan]

^

[wide tartan]

Are you sure you put in the new token?

[slate swan]

It's got admin

100% sure

[slate swan]

you have to pass a bot token and not a string that says TOKEN

[slate swan]

remove one of the bot =

[wide tartan]

And yes, please dont have 2 bot variables

[slate swan]

import discord
from discord.ext import commands
from discord.ext import tasks

bot = commands.Bot(command_prefix = "/")
bot = commands.Bot(command_prefix="!")
@bot.command()
async def ping(ctx):
    await ctx.channel.send("pong")
bot.run("token")

Bruh

Hold on

[slate swan]

remove either the 5th or 6th line

[worn folio]

Hey everyone, anyone used guild.fecth_members? i am trying to capture daily new member joined and total members the server where i am a moderator. i want to store the stats in the db to use it in the dashboard later. thank you!

[wide tartan]

In the code, you did replace token with your actual token, right

[slate swan]

import discord
from discord.ext import commands
from discord.ext import tasks

bot = commands.Bot(command_prefix="!")
@bot.command()
async def ping(ctx):
    await ctx.channel.send("pong")
bot.run("token")

Same error

On the bot.run ? @wide tartan

i would recommend you learn basic py and oop and then check out this tutorial https://tutorial.vcokltfre.dev :))

@slate swan I know py 100% I'm new to the discord shit

Tf

[wide tartan]

For on_member_join, you can just store it from the member object. To get every member from the server, do something like this:

for members in guild: # define guild
   ...```

[slate swan]

you know python 100 percent and you cant read a simple traceback?

It's legit 7am and I haven't slept for 12+ hours 🥴 my brain is far gone tbh

doesnt seem healthy does it

[maiden fable]

What's the error

[slate swan]

Yeah ig I'm trying but I need knew meds

[slate swan]

Invalid token passed

[warped mirage]

Who wanna help me make all my aiosqlite connections into one 😉

[slate swan]

But it's been reset its not invalid.

[maiden fable]

Does yr token contain 2 periods?

[slate swan]

Nope

One period and a -

[maiden fable]

Then the token is wrong

It should contain 2 periods

Not 3, not 1

[slate swan]

you can use a bot var or class instance vars and just save the db connection

@maiden fable fixed the token but no input

I also tried on my server too.

[maiden fable]

Did u invoke the command?

[slate swan]

do you have the message intent on?

[wide tartan]

I would suggest setting an on_ready event printing that it's on so you don't get confused if the bot is actually up or not

[shrewd apex]

first add a onready event to see if bot is starting

[shrewd apex]

also ctx.channel is not required u can just do ctx.send or CTX.reply

[wide tartan]

Isnt message intents for outside-discord uses related to messages?

[slate swan]

@wide tartan has he figured it out yet?

I'm new 😭😭 im trying my hardest rn so hold on

Lemme make sure it's online.

[slate swan]

it's all good man, no one is judging

What's the code to make sure it's ready?

Bc i can't find it.

I also haven't slept for 12+ hours 😭

[slate swan]

an on_ready event

Alright

[slate swan]

its used for Bot users to read a message's content including embeds and other stuff

[wide tartan]

Ah, makes sense

[slate swan]

@bot.event
async def on_ready():
    print("I'm online!")

Here's an example on_ready event. @slate swan

[warped mirage]

Hello Asher

[warped mirage]

Idk how lol

I’m on 2.0

[kindred kernel]

dpy version doesn't change the basics of python and OOP

[slate swan]

Bots not defined.

I hate this 😭😭

@wide tartan how can I edit an embed?

[slate swan]

send code.

[kindred kernel]

message.edit(embed=edited_embed)

[slate swan]

import discord
from discord.ext import commands
from discord.ext import tasks

@bot.event
async def on_ready():
    print("I'm online!")

[wide tartan]

Put the bot variable

[slate swan]

the bot.event has to go under your bot = line

[slate swan]

if its not on the gateway will send null as the content inside of the MESSAGE_CREATE payload iirc

[slate swan]

What😭

[wide tartan]

Your bot variable is in the code, right

[slate swan]

No.

[wide tartan]

.

[slate swan]

the bot variable is being used before you define it

[wide tartan]

well, that explains why lol

[slate swan]

Send me what it should look like?

[slate swan]

you wont learn this way

!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.

[wide tartan]

You basically set the bot variable before

[slate swan]

🔄

[wide tartan]

Also

@slate swan are you setting a task loop?

[kindred kernel]

@slate swan See:
The basic of python:
If you are using a variable to do something (you do: @bot.event), you should define it before using it.
SO, you have to define what is bot.
e.g.:

input
print(dead)

output
Error```
```py
input
dead = "me"
print(dead)

output
me```

[slate swan]

Ik how variables work dw

[kindred kernel]

Looked like you dont

[wide tartan]

If you're not setting a task loop, then tasks is not needed

[kindred kernel]

uh, probably yea

[slate swan]

more like methods

Legit new asf it would help if you would just send the code 😭

[kindred kernel]

but if he knows python he should've noted that, cus in classes there are familiar @ like @property and else...

[slate swan]

i love python decorators ngl

[kindred kernel]

we are here not for spoonfeeding

[slate swan]

@wide tartan wait_for("reaction_add") only detected if the reaction was pressed one time

[kindred kernel]

maybe

[slate swan]

with (...)

Helpful

[wide tartan]

That's why i told you to use the on_reaction_add event

[slate swan]

oh yeah

its literally just ellipsis bro

I haven't slept at all for 12 hours which makes it even funner

[kindred kernel]

then go sleep and then return probably?

[slate swan]

doesnt matter how much you slept you cant learn a whole programming language in a day :))

good things take time!

idk how it goes!

I just want this to work then I'll sleep like a baby.

[valid panther]

hi

[kindred kernel]

depends on what do you define as "learn a whole programming language", maybe it's just a syntax of lang?

[valid panther]

https://paste.pythondiscord.com/zigasaquju.py this is my help cmd code yet the bot dosent show anything and it shows no error

[slate swan]

I legit just want to make a command that's it 😭 there was a error which I fixed and now turned into a huge problem 🙃

[slate swan]

well then if we go by that logic to learn a whole language like spanish you would just learn its grammar which is quite hard as you dont know what words mean

[valid panther]

  help Shows this message

Type ?help command for more info on a command.
You can also type ?help category for more info on a category.```

when i run ?help i get this message

[slate swan]

All i want is the exact code that reply when entering !ping that's it.

[kindred kernel]

well prog. langs and langs are a "bit" different but what do i know 'bout this....

[valid panther]

can you plis look in this issue

[paper sluice]

honestly when someone says they have learnt the language, i would expect them to be able to make basic projects and stuff without having to google everything. Syntax is a small part about a language as pretty much all languages share the same concept

[slate swan]

bot.remove_command('help')

just use the kwarg in the bot constructor

[valid panther]

can you plis explain in detail

[slate swan]

basically it removes the default help command

you could also do help_command=None in the bot constructor like @slate swan said

[kindred kernel]

*put it right after defining a bot to have no problem

[paper sluice]

just subclass the default help command...

[kindred kernel]

who subclasses the help command at this level

[slate swan]

Istfg man 😭

The token is invalid again apparently

[kindred kernel]

it's more like they even dont know how to subclass

[paper sluice]

hmm, fair

[slate swan]

are you sure your defining your token correctly? or is someone else in your discord account too

[slate swan]

wouldn't it do it for all commands if I do it this way?

[slate swan]

How are you defining your token?

Bot.run 💀

[slate swan]

you need quotes around your token

[kindred kernel]

without quotes

[paper sluice]

bro put ur bot token in place of "token"

[slate swan]

JESUS CHRIST

2 tired for this shit

[wide tartan]

Define the specific message then

[slate swan]

😂

[slate swan]

How

Same error when I fixed it.

😭😭😭

[slate swan]

send code.

I wanna kms man istg

don't do that

from discord.ext import commands
import discord
token = ("TOKEN HERE")
bot = commands.Bot(command_prefix='$', intents=discord.Intents.all())

@bot.event
async def on_ready():
    print("online")
bot.run("token")

[kindred kernel]

:kms:

[slate swan]

😂

[kindred kernel]

ah, nitro is gone yeah

[shrewd apex]

it's there in the docs as far as i remember

[slate swan]

bot.run(token)

[kindred kernel]

yes

but who reads them tbh

[shrewd apex]

lmao true

[kindred kernel]

xD

[paper sluice]

honestly subclassing is soo much easier, edit things make super calls and ur done

[slate swan]

Some discord shit now

[cloud dawn]

Almost every dpy programmer.

[slate swan]

@paper sluice https://paste.pythondiscord.com/zigasaquju.py this is my help cmd code yet the bot dosent show anything and it shows no error

[slate swan]

enable the intents in the dev portal

[kindred kernel]

i mean here

except those who help

[slate swan]

Where's that**

[cloud dawn]

!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]

developer portal

[shrewd apex]

yeah like if u create your own help command and u use group commands or some custom help for a command it's much tougher to co ordinate

[kindred kernel]

ofcourse i dont remember the link\

[slate swan]

[paper sluice]

did u do bot.help_command = HelpCommand() ( u have to import this from the file )

[kindred kernel]

https://discord.com/developers/applications/

[shrewd apex]

the error literally says whats wrong

[slate swan]

How do I edit my bot's description using its token?

It now says online but when i try !ping dosent respond @slate swan

[slate swan]

@valid panther

I did that (:

[slate swan]

is there an error?

[cloud dawn]

You can't.

[slate swan]

Shouldn't be.

[slate swan]

[slate swan]

Anyone?

[slate swan]

Is it possible to make our own way using requests or any other library?

[slate swan]

@paper sluice

[kindred kernel]

check your indentation

[cloud dawn]

Not while going against the ToS no.

[kindred kernel]

and also try reading tracebacks

[paper sluice]

put that code in vsc and click format document :p

or any ide ur using

it should have something similar

[slate swan]

Nope

[warped mirage]

OMG let’s go

[slate swan]

Possible going against TOS?

ryuga how do I check for every reaction press?

[warped mirage]

Many helpers online lol

[slate swan]

error?

[slate swan]

@valid panther

[cloud dawn]

We won't help with that.

[slate swan]

No error but no response when I try $ping

[slate swan]

Sed

[slate swan]

there's always this much

[slate swan]

is the bot in the server your doing $ping in

[warped mirage]

That I know *

[slate swan]

from discord.ext import commands
import discord
token = ("Token")
bot = commands.Bot(command_prefix='!', intents=discord.Intents.all())

@bot.event
async def on_ready():
    print("bot online!")
bot.run(token)

[paper sluice]

u make callbacks for things, they get called everytime someone interacts with the ui

[warped mirage]

Ashley can u help me fix lol

[kindred kernel]

cus there is no ping command

[slate swan]

well now your prefix is !, so try doing !ping

[slate swan]

no ping command + different prefix

[valid panther]

bot.help_command = HelpCommand()
NameError: name 'HelpCommand' is not defined
@paper sluice its giving meh this error

[slate swan]

sad

[kindred kernel]

@bot.command()
async def ping(ctx):
    await ctx.send('PONG!')``` @slate swan

[warped mirage]

How do I fix

Lmao 🤣

[slate swan]

I tried, await bot.wait_for("reaction_add") but it only checks once

[slate swan]

use the class name which subclassed the default help command

[paper sluice]

import HelpCommand from the file

[cloud dawn]

It's the default value no need to re-define.

[slate swan]

dont know

[cloud dawn]

!d discord.ext.commands.Bot

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ext.commands.Bot

class discord.ext.commands.Bot(command_prefix, *, help_command=<default-help-command>, tree_cls=<class 'discord.app_commands.tree.CommandTree'>, description=None, intents, **options)```
Represents a discord bot.

This class is a subclass of [`discord.Client`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.Client "discord.Client") and as a result anything that you can do with a [`discord.Client`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.Client "discord.Client") you can do with this bot.

This class also subclasses [`GroupMixin`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.GroupMixin "discord.ext.commands.GroupMixin") to provide the functionality to manage commands.

Unlike [`discord.Client`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.Client "discord.Client"), This class does not require manually setting a [`CommandTree`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/interactions/api.html#discord.app_commands.CommandTree "discord.app_commands.CommandTree") and is automatically set upon instantiating the class.

[warped mirage]

Maybe something wrong with my None statements

[cloud dawn]

He wants you to index at 0

[kindred kernel]

it is showing an array, su you can get [0] value

mesg[0]

[slate swan]

[warped mirage]

should i put it below or above cursor.fetchone()

[valid panther]

import HelpCommand
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'HelpCommand'

i am getting this error now

[slate swan]

version 2.0

[cloud dawn]

Lol tbf Ryuga did say that.

[slate swan]

poor ryuga

[kindred kernel]

it should be before bot.run(token), not after

[cloud dawn]

!d discord.ext.commands.HelpCommand

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ext.commands.HelpCommand

class discord.ext.commands.HelpCommand(*args, **kwargs)```
The base implementation for help command formatting.

Note

Internally instances of this class are deep copied every time the command itself is invoked to prevent a race condition mentioned in [GH-2123](https://github.com/Rapptz/discord.py/issues/2123).

This means that relying on the state of this class to be the same between command invocations would not work as expected.

[slate swan]

put bot.run all the way at the bottom of your code

[slate swan]

@slate swan

and?

[kindred kernel]

from discord.ext.commands import HelpCommand

[shrewd apex]

class classname(commands.HelpCommand)

[warped mirage]

@commands.command()
    async def set_msg(self, ctx):
        async with aiosqlite.connect("wm.db") as db:
            cursor = await db.cursor()
            await cursor.execute("SELECT welcome  FROM wm where guild_id = ?", (ctx.guild.id,))
            data = await cursor.fetchone()

            if not data:
             await cursor.execute("INSERT INTO wm(guild_id, channel_id, welcome) VALUES(?,?,?)", (ctx.guild.id, ctx.channel.id, 'xyz',))

            return await ctx.send(f"welcome message is {mesg}")``` is this better

[slate swan]

Invalid syntax-

[cloud dawn]

More like from discord.ext.commands import HelpCommand

[kindred kernel]

More like

[slate swan]

@paper sluice ?

[paper sluice]

from discord.ext import menus

class MyMenu(menus.Menu):
    async def send_initial_message(self, ctx, channel):

# later
@bot.command()

    m = MyMenu()
    await m.start(ctx)

try out menus then

[kindred kernel]

just put [0] in your f string

'tralala {mesg[0]}'

[slate swan]

wtf is this

[shrewd apex]

yeah forgot the class name

[cloud dawn]

class T((__import__("discord").ext.commands.HelpCommand)):

[slate swan]

from discord.ext import commands

bot.run(token)
@bot.command()
async def ping(ctx):
    await ctx.send('PONG!')

[kindred kernel]

oof

[slate swan]

b-b-bye

[paper sluice]

its just reactions + callbacks. callback is the function that will be called everytime someone interacts with the emoji/reaction

[shrewd apex]

discord has a built-in paginator as well

[slate swan]

@slate swan

No reply

[kindred kernel]

put bot.run(token) at the end of file, at the endest end, not in the middle

[slate swan]

from discord.ext import commands

@bot.event
async def on_ready():
    print("bot online!")

@bot.command()
async def ping(ctx):
    await ctx.send('PONG!')

bot.run(token)

@slate swan

[warped mirage]

Oh my days what a difference xd now it just removes the comma welcome message is None

[slate swan]

is all that really necessary though?

[paper sluice]

T=type('',(__import__("discord").ext.commands.HelpCommand,),{...})

[paper sluice]

its wayy easier to use than wait for, give it a try

[slate swan]

Nope @slate swan

[cloud dawn]

lmao ellipsis as class

[slate swan]

What how

[kindred kernel]

yes congrats it removed the comma, that's what i helped for, idk what is the data in your db so check it your self, try some microsoft progs to connect into your db and interact with it yourself glhf

[slate swan]

No response

@slate swan lemme inv u to my server

[warped mirage]

No

[slate swan]

dms

[warped mirage]

[kindred kernel]

me2 pls

[warped mirage]

Hey Pandabweer

[cloud dawn]

I wonder how much slower a bot would be if you would one-line it completely compared to the same bot non comprehended.

[cloud dawn]

Hello

[warped mirage]

Wanna help now I guess lol , I managed to get my bot work a bit more

[paper sluice]

it would be slower but i dont think u would really notice it

[cloud dawn]

Plus the literal maintenance pain and dupe code.

[paper sluice]

they update lib, whole code base gone

[slate swan]

@paper sluice how would I do it without menus?

[paper sluice]

subclass menus.Menu then add the reactions u want and in the function add the things u want the bot to do after someone clicks the reactions

[slate swan]

this would be using menus though?

[warped mirage]

https://paste.pythondiscord.com/malusomuke error , Welcome message is None

[paper sluice]

ya? look at the example i sent

[cloud dawn]

I don't get why your code is so long tough, this should only take like <50 lines with cog included.

[warped mirage]

multguild welcome system

[slate swan]

I meant to ask how would I do it without using menus

[warped mirage]

....

[paper sluice]

hmm idrk

[cloud dawn]

I was implying that yeah.

[warped mirage]

hmm

well can u help me . i just need 4 basic commands then

[slate swan]

someone mentioned on_reaction_add but idk how id do it that way

[cloud dawn]

I first recommend making the cursor globally available by making it either a bot var or by subclassing, i recommend subclassing.

[warped mirage]

I never subclass tbf I wouldn’t be here if I wouldn’t need help , u know what I mean?

I don’t know how I guess

[cloud dawn]

Okay well then let's subclass it since then programming is a lot easier

[warped mirage]

Will my welcome system work tho

For multiguilds

[brazen raft]

And you can use it like commands.Bot

class MyBot(commands.Bot):
    pass

[warped mirage]

I use a cog

[brazen raft]

In the __init__ method you can define a connection attribute to use everywhere

[warped mirage]

And I already have commands.bot in my main file

[brazen raft]

Cogs get the bot instance (so in a cog you would access the connection attribute using self.bot.connection)

[cloud dawn]

Not instantly but I'm trying to make your life easier.

[warped mirage]

Oh damn so means I gotta restart

Ye idk I need help re building my system if I’m gonna restart

[cloud dawn]

No not likely.

Could you show your main file?

[warped mirage]

Can I ask why lol

[cloud dawn]

Since then I could show you what subclassing looks like.

I could also use example code.

[slate swan]

why in the init and idts that you can run coroutines in the init function

[warped mirage]

I don’t even know at this point what to do

I just want a simple welcome system for multi guilds

[brazen raft]

You can assign the attribute the connection in an on_ready event or something, but PEP says to define just the attribute in __init__

[slate swan]

noooo

[brazen raft]

What

[slate swan]

not in on_ready

[brazen raft]

Yeah true

Then where

[placid skiff]

[cloud dawn]

And no one here is really helping right? It's because the code is just really unreadable and unstructured.

[slate swan]

setup_hook

[brazen raft]

Teach me

[cloud dawn]

Just use the setup hook

[warped mirage]

Ok , then lets start

[heavy shard]

hmmmm
if if wanted async intialisation and finalisation in cog, would setup() and teardown() be fine?
i see no other async methods for that...

[slate swan]

from discord.ext import commands
import aiosqlite

class MyBot(commands.Bot):
  db: aiosqlite.Connection
  def __init__(self):
    super().__init__(...)
  
  async def setup_hook(self):
    self.db = await aiosqlite.connect("_.db")

thats how

[brazen raft]

Cool thanks, will definitely use it.

[heavy shard]

or maybe __init__ and unload_cog and bot.loop.create_task ?

[slate swan]

you can just use a task or overwrite setup_hook with a coroutine

[brazen raft]

self.db should be inside __init__, no?

The type hinting, I mean

[slate swan]

not required

[brazen raft]

Really? Because there's self

[slate swan]

uhhh yes fixed

[brazen raft]

Well now it's a class variable, not an instance attribute

[slate swan]

its just a typehint...

[brazen raft]

Just put it in the __init__

[slate swan]

as you wish

[brazen raft]

Right, never mind then

[slate swan]

you can still pretty much typehint it

who pinged me?

[kindred kernel]

i did

[slate swan]

for what

sweet

[slate swan]

self.db: aiosqlite.Connection = await aiosqlite.connect(...)

@slate swan do yk how I can detect every reaction press?

[kindred kernel]

event

[slate swan]

mb

[kindred kernel]

!d discord.on_raw_reaction_add

[unkempt canyon]

discord.on\_raw\_reaction\_add

discord.on_raw_reaction_add(payload)```
Called when a message has a reaction added. Unlike [`on_reaction_add()`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.on_reaction_add "discord.on_reaction_add"), this is called regardless of the state of the internal message cache.

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

[slate swan]

await client.wait_for("raw_reaction_add")?

no it should be an async function

[kindred kernel]

this will stop after first reaction

[slate swan]

How do I make it not stop

[slate swan]

@Bot.listen()
async def on_raw_reaction_add(payload):
  ...

[slate swan]

^

[slate swan]

but this would listen for all commands?

[slate swan]

no?

[slate swan]

payload would be what? I dont get it

[cloud dawn]

from __future__ import annotations
import asyncio

from discord import Intents
from discord.ext.commands import Bot

        print("Ready")

bot = Example(command_prefix="!", intents=Intents.all())
asyncio.run(bot.run(TOKEN, reconnect=True))

[slate swan]

i mostly dont do this cuz your editor would probably already know the type, but its handy when a value will be mutated

[warped mirage]

What file is this meant to be ? A cog right ?

[slate swan]

https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.RawReactionActionEvent

[cloud dawn]

Not exactly, this is just making a custom Bot so we can use more variables everywhere.

[brazen raft]

If you don't want PyCharm to scream at you, you need to add self.db: aiosqlite.Connection | None = None to the __init__ method

[warped mirage]

Oh my idk what to do anymore

So now I must rewrite the bot once again

[cloud dawn]

I defined db inside the class.

[slate swan]

any examples?

[slate swan]

its recommended to use start instead of run for v2 now

[shrewd apex]

instead of rewriting the bot at each step u are stuck try to revise the solution to suit your bot instead of bot to suit the solution

[cloud dawn]

I mean it wouldn't make much sense since run is essentially the same in the code atm.

[slate swan]

it is, but just saying, it may be deprecated in the future updates

[cloud dawn]

Lemme update it then.

[warped mirage]

Man each time , first someone says update to 2.0 then subclass ur bot and it goes on

Like what am I meant to have ?!?!

[shrewd apex]

yeah they are all steps to make ur bot not something esoteric

[shrewd apex]

at the end of the day just try to have a working bot ig...

[warped mirage]

I’ve been stuck on this welcome system for 4 days now lol

[slate swan]

thats how

[cloud dawn]

ew

[slate swan]

well, it is what it is

[cloud dawn]

Okay

[placid skiff]

I will not comment this

[warped mirage]

Lol

[kindred kernel]

why :D_D:

[warped mirage]

Nah I’m finished

[tulip matrix]

!discord_errors

[kindred kernel]

nah

[slate swan]

#bot-commands and what do you need specifically

[warped mirage]

Damn

[tulip matrix]

so basically i have this code where if the user doesnt specify an amount of messages to purge then it will say please specify an argument

[cloud dawn]

No this is way too ugly I don't understand why they won't just stop using aenter they just chose the easy way out.

[slate swan]

you'll have to make an error handler, do you already have one?

[tulip matrix]

yes, there is no error but it just clears when you don't specify an argument

do you want a screenshot of code

[slate swan]

lol, no offence but I really find the dpy v2 ugly, even py-cord stands out in that case

[heavy shard]

Pandabweer: about opening/connecting database in setup_hook ... doesn't it need db.close() somewhere on shutdown?

[warped mirage]

Anyways back to v 1.7.3 lol

[placid skiff]

Disnake exists

[slate swan]

use the on_disconnect event in that case...

[warped mirage]

Do they support WLECOME systems

[heavy shard]

ah right, thanks

[slate swan]

but wait no

[placid skiff]

Bruh no fork supports a welcome system is something that you will code

[cloud dawn]

This way of starting is ugly and the fact the programmer needs to sync their own slash commands, it takes a lot of time to code something custom like that and 7/10 programmers don't even know how to make slash commands.

[slate swan]

dont dont dont use that event

[heavy shard]

ok ok

[warped mirage]

I tried but I can’t

And even if I do no one knows how to fix

Lol

[placid skiff]

Then you will need to study more because it is simple

[warped mirage]

Aiosqlite is not simple

Whoever thinks databases are easy to learn then idk

[placid skiff]

It's the simplest database

[slate swan]

fr I was planning to make a pr for auto-syncing but I just dropped the idea

[warped mirage]

It’s not

[placid skiff]

Try aiogram then

[warped mirage]

I can’t I already went to far on with my bot

I can’t just keep stopping each time

[placid skiff]

I was sarcastic .-. aiogram requires more experience than aiosqlite .-.

[warped mirage]

Guys how do u even learn how to make all of this … it’s not like docs always show how to make new commands or like systems

[cloud dawn]

Combined stuff.

[warped mirage]

Ok

I’ll take github has the answer

[cloud dawn]

Brain smaller than -

only if we have one 😔

[warped mirage]

U guys do

[brazen raft]

You plan systems for your own bot yourself.

[slate swan]

my bot's repo has it-

    await open_database()
    async with client:
        await client.start(TOKEN)
    await close_database()

github, google, and trial and error

[robust fulcrum]

Guys how can we take input from user in discord.py
Can anyone tell me with a example
(I searched Google but not understood)

[cloud dawn]

If your only goal is to have a welcome system I don't get why you are messing around with Cogs.

[slate swan]

at least, finally authorized for github co-pilot uwu

[placid skiff]

How much time it took to you? xD

[warped mirage]

So u want me to have it in a main file ?

[slate swan]

a day and a half tops

[placid skiff]

literally months

[slate swan]

lol

okay nice, github co-pilot has crashed...

[robust fulcrum]

Pls help

[cloud dawn]

github copilot is still in beta no?

[livid hinge]

whats the controversy about ways of starting

[slate swan]

yeah, you have to get authorized to use it

[placid skiff]

You already broke it

[cloud dawn]

I think if I had it I would try it for a day then later never use it again.

[slate swan]

I just opened VSC lol

[livid hinge]

still pre-release

[slate swan]

same, I prefer using TabNine too

!d discord.ext.commands.Bot.wait_for

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ext.commands.Bot.wait\_for

wait_for(event, /, *, check=None, timeout=None)```
This function is a [*coroutine*](https://docs.python.org/3/library/asyncio-task.html#coroutine).

Waits for a WebSocket event to be dispatched.

This could be used to wait for a user to reply to a message, or to react to a message, or to edit a message in a self-contained way.

The `timeout` parameter is passed onto [`asyncio.wait_for()`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/asyncio-task.html#asyncio.wait_for "(in Python v3.10)"). By default, it does not timeout. Note that this does propagate the [`asyncio.TimeoutError`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/asyncio-exceptions.html#asyncio.TimeoutError "(in Python v3.10)") for you in case of timeout and is provided for ease of use.

In case the event returns multiple arguments, a [`tuple`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/stdtypes.html#tuple "(in Python v3.10)") containing those arguments is returned instead. Please check the [documentation](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord-api-events) for a list of events and their parameters.

This function returns the **first event that meets the requirements**...

[robust fulcrum]

Whats useof check?

[livid hinge]

tabnime reminded me of how bad it was 🤣

[kindred kernel]

function

[paper sluice]

i don't use any auto completing software...

[robust fulcrum]

Bro i asking use

[placid skiff]

i'm pretty comfortable with copilot tbh

[warped mirage]

Can someone just help me finish my welcome system or atleast the error

[cloud dawn]

@commands.command(name="example")
async def ex_ample(self, ctx: Context, arg: Any) -> None:
    await ctx.send(arg)

[kindred kernel]

oh yeah ^

[robust fulcrum]

There is no input tho

[warped mirage]

Guys does it take a long time to learn most of discord.py honest answers

[cloud dawn]

What do you mean?

[warped mirage]

Because I wanna be a good coder uknow and not be so crap at all of and have to ask for help so much

[cloud dawn]

You mean input()?

[robust fulcrum]

Means this commandd is not taking any input

[cloud dawn]

It is?

[robust fulcrum]

Me making pie chart command so i need to use input

[cloud dawn]

input is for console not dpy.

[placid skiff]

Well if you'll stop loosing time here making commonly questions with the answers placed literally everywhere in the web and with a pretty good knowledge of python itself you can learn it in about a pair of week

[paper sluice]

!command input thats the input...

[robust fulcrum]

Means i asking how to use input in dpy

[warped mirage]

No way lmao ur serious ?

[placid skiff]

I learned it in a week..

[robust fulcrum]

First Learn python......

[warped mirage]

Ok I’ll take ur advice and I’ll see how I do

[cloud dawn]

We're pretty knowledgeable ;-;

[cloud dawn]

A day

[robust fulcrum]

Learn the language before using its library

resp = await client.wait_for("message")
''' if resp gets the response in time, it will return a Message object ''' 

''' timeout '''

  await ctx.send("no")
finally:
  do_uwu_stuff_if_you_like()

''' check '''
def check(msg):
  return msg.author.id == ctx.author.id and msg.channel.id == ctx.channel.id

resp = await client.wait_for("message", check=check) #this will only return the message which meets the proper requirements

''' combined '''
try:
  resp = await client.wait_for("message", check=check, timeout=69)
except asyncio.TimeoutError:
  return await ctx.send("uwu")

if you want the input to be a message

[placid skiff]

What did it cost?

[robust fulcrum]

Ty mee read it

[slate swan]

why did I write all that

[cloud dawn]

A half year experience in PHP coding and my soul.

[placid skiff]

lmao

[robust fulcrum]

Can I use while loop in it?

[slate swan]

you can but it will be blocking

[robust fulcrum]

Then for loop?

[cloud dawn]

while True:

[robust fulcrum]

I want to take input 5 times so I'll be using while

[placid skiff]

Lol you can't

[slate swan]

uwu

[cloud dawn]

for x in range(10):
while True:

[slate swan]

fuck, github co-pilot is the shittiest software i've seen

[robust fulcrum]

😨

Guys anyone here know how can we host our bot for free except replit

[dense swallow]

i have a question, if i have commands.CommandInvokeError as an error handler, do i need Member/Role/ChannelNotFound handlers?

[cloud dawn]

from discord.ext.commands import Greedy

😔

[robust fulcrum]

*args?

[dense swallow]

@commands.command(name="example")
async def ex_ample(self, ctx: Context, *, args) -> None:
    await ctx.send(arg)

[cloud dawn]

No? That's not how greedy works :x

[slate swan]

@warped mirage flex 😔

[slate swan]

i know lol

[robust fulcrum]

H

[warped mirage]

That’s nice for you

[cloud dawn]

returning ctx.send?

[slate swan]

ikr

[warped mirage]

And unlucky for me

[slate swan]

yeah there's more to the function

[dense swallow]

umm anyone?

[warped mirage]

Bruh now I can’t even make the system

[slate swan]

no comments

you could still refer to mine, its not the best, its not the worst

[warped mirage]

Didn’t ask for comments lol

[slate swan]

never made a comment...

[warped mirage]

Ye but yours is weird and u only show the db . Like u do from Future import something idk I don’t make this type of stuff

[slate swan]

show db? the repo is public....

[cloud dawn]

Yeah it's the base exception, I also recommend getting the original error if possible.

[warped mirage]

U don’t show the actual codes

[paper sluice]

how is future related to this in any way??

[slate swan]

https://github.com/Dark-Light007/Darker <-

[cloud dawn]

file names starting with a capital letter.

[warped mirage]

Hikari tho

[slate swan]

totally me

[warped mirage]

Oh my days why am I so unlucky

[placid skiff]

Duh weirds

Package starts with capital

[slate swan]

idk, I have a bad habit of doing that cuz I generally name my react.js files with capital letters, stop humiliating me for no reason 😔

[placid skiff]

Uh i didn't want to

[dense swallow]

im trying to minimise the number of error handlers i have.. so i was thinking to put CommandInvokeError and remove the NotFound types

[slate swan]

well......sqlite is completely unrelated to hikari

[warped mirage]

Ye thought so

If I can use hikari and aiosqlite in my bot then I will do it

[cloud dawn]

Well they are there for a reason so I don't recommend ignoring them.

[slate swan]

uhhh

dont use hikari

[placid skiff]

hikari requires more knowledge than d.py

[slate swan]

its complex than dpy

^

plus reading docs

[cloud dawn]

bet

[warped mirage]

Rip

[slate swan]

bet

[warped mirage]

Finished ones again

[dense swallow]

hmm okay thanks

[slate swan]

@plugin.command

@Bot.command(name=..., description=...)

huge difference

and the fact that you dont necessarily have to use classes for extensions

[cloud dawn]

But you are comparing a slash command to a message command... the dpy slash command also have 1000 deco's

[placid skiff]

Disnake has only one

[slate swan]

its a prefix command.

[cloud dawn]

on_message command.

[slate swan]

wdym?

[slate swan]

nice fork but forks bad

[cloud dawn]

Bot is just an advanced on_message bot lmao.

[slate swan]

I know....

[placid skiff]

Duh disnake is better than d.py

[slate swan]

not really, in terms of simplicity, yes

[cloud dawn]

dpy just needs to fix small issues. Then it's good

Like not needing to pass Intents since you can have no intents and auto sync + better cogs for slash cmds.

[slate swan]

this kills me tbh

[slate swan]

agreed

[cloud dawn]

This is how I load "cogs" in a Client bot for slash cmd's ```py
import importlib
import inspect
import pkgutil

from typing import Iterator, NoReturn

import exts
from discord.app_commands import Group

def unqualify(name: str) -> str:
"""Return an unqualified name given a qualified module/package name."""
return name.rsplit(".", maxsplit=1)[-1]

def walk_extensions() -> Iterator[str]:
"""Yield extension objects from the exts subpackage."""

def on_error(err_name: str) -> NoReturn:
    raise ImportError(name=err_name)  # pragma: no cover

for module in pkgutil.walk_packages(exts.__path__, f"{exts.__name__}.", onerror=on_error):
    if unqualify(module.name).startswith("_"):
        # Ignore module/package names starting with an underscore.
        continue

    if module.ispkg:
        imported = importlib.import_module(module.name)
        for name, obj in inspect.getmembers(imported):
            if inspect.isclass(obj) and issubclass(obj, Group):
                yield obj

EXTENSIONS = frozenset(walk_extensions())

[warped mirage]

Can someone help me with my error

[slate swan]

too much brain application

[cloud dawn]

Sure.

[slate swan]

error ie?

[warped mirage]

Welcome message is not None 😈

[cloud dawn]

I still need to do auto asyncing but i'm not coding bots in dpy rn.

[warped mirage]

Ok nevermind

Let’s just forget I asked

[slate swan]

which lib then?

preferably*

[cloud dawn]

volley and com

Some widget stuff too

Rules

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

[maiden fable]

I mean, he wants help converting it into a command?

[slate swan]

didnt read

[placid skiff]

the exact same thing in a command and you send the image with the send method

[west wigeon]

and take input from the command arguments, not from the console

this is a bit trickier, though, since you have a varying number of values ...

can still be done, though. a command that takes multiline input.

or maybe just two arguments, each of which is a comma-delimited list, then convert those to lists before passing to pyplot

'0xfffff' like inside a string?

got it working now

thx setattr

yeah it will

where is the check it will give check not defined

[robust fulcrum]

Oh

[robust fulcrum]

How to fix this error?

[shrewd apex]

u have to make a check

[robust fulcrum]

Already done

It's at top

It's showing me indentation error even it's correct

[shrewd apex]

OoO

[shrewd apex]

u could just put all cogs in a folder then load it at once

[loud junco]

i cant await it

[robust fulcrum]

Hey I ahve a easy way

[shrewd apex]

commando. is a part of your file name?

[robust fulcrum]

cogs = ["cogs.invite","cogs.quote","cogs.wanted","cogs.purge","cogs.pot","cogs.image","cogs.spotify","cogs.channel","cogs.anime"]

@bot.event
async def on_ready():
	print("The bot is ready!")                
	print("Loading cogs . . .")               
	for cog in cogs:                          
		try:                                  
			await bot.load_extension(cog)           
			print(cog + " was loaded.")       
		except Exception as e:               
			print(e)

I use this way you can try it

[loud junco]

on_ready 💀

ashley told me not to do this

[shrewd apex]

do this ur files as i see is in a relative path so u need commando/xyz

[shrewd apex]

yeah u shouldnt

[robust fulcrum]

@shrewd apex can you help me
I am getting indentation error even it's correct

[shrewd apex]

ur cogs load after bot loads

[loud junco]

thats not the problem

[loud junco]

while...

[shrewd apex]

indent ur while and await one more time

[loud junco]

i awaited them

[shrewd apex]

dont load with command either

[loud junco]

then how

i cant load it outside function

cuz i cant await them outside

[robust fulcrum]

Still

[shrewd apex]

do

async main():
   async with bot:
      await bot.load_extension('xyz')
      await bot.start(token)
asyncio.run(main())

[loud junco]

ok

[loud junco]

where do i do it tho

[shrewd apex]

in the end u can just copy paste

[loud junco]

ok

[robust fulcrum]

Do you have solution from it?

[shrewd apex]

ur load extensions in the async with bot part

[loud junco]

i change token to os.getenv blahblah?

[shrewd apex]

can i see the error in the image what can i see or understand from that

[shrewd apex]

yeah

[loud junco]

and i remove the last line?

[shrewd apex]

yeah

now initialise your bot using bot.start

run may get depreceated

[shrewd apex]

u cant mix tabs and spaces when indenting

[robust fulcrum]

Hmm

[shrewd apex]

read the error before asking first

[robust fulcrum]

Me on mobile no tab :(

[loud junco]

how on earth are they not awaited

@shrewd apex help ;-;

[shrewd apex]

hmm lemme see mine

[loud junco]

ok

  async with bot:
    await bot.load_extension(...)
    await bot.start("token") #use this function instead of "bot.run()"

asyncio.run(main())
```?

[shrewd apex]

thats strange

[robust fulcrum]

@shrewd apex i did all indents correct still it shows

[shrewd apex]

are all the cog names correct?

[robust fulcrum]

My?

[shrewd apex]

no
