i wonder how much do mee6 and dyno earn thru premium

[dull terrace]

the earn per server (eps) is wrong needs to x100

[slate swan]

!d discord.Guild.ban , takes a user

oh, my bad

[dull terrace]

epic rpg is really wild, it's a good model if you wanna follow it

[slate swan]

capital U

[dull terrace]

fake rpg too

[slate swan]

!d discord.User.banner

[unkempt canyon]

discord.User.banner

property banner```
Returns the user’s banner asset, if available.

New in version 2.0.

Note

This information is only available via [`Client.fetch_user()`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.Client.fetch_user "discord.Client.fetch_user").

[buoyant zodiac]

how to get irl

url* is it just .url

[slate swan]

banner.url

!d discord.Asset.url

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Asset.url

property url```
Returns the underlying URL of the asset.

[slate swan]

User.banner can return None!

it always does, you need to fetch_user before using it

[dull terrace]

fake rpg gets almost 7p per server per month, they would earn £7000 per month if they had 100k servers

[buoyant zodiac]

okay so inorder to get the url i fetch the user and use user.banner.url

[slate swan]

ah because of partially initialized objects?

i guess so

its like bot.fetch_guilds() which doesnt return a full Guild object and is limited in attributes

[sick birch]

Is it possible to dynamically create tasks w/o using the decorator?

[slate swan]

the decorator?

[sick birch]

Without using one, since the decorator locks me into making the task "static" (e.g I have to define the interval beforehand)

For context I need to start a tasks loop after a command has been run, and the interval is provided through the command

[slate swan]

!d discord.ext.tasks.Loop

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ext.tasks.Loop

class discord.ext.tasks.Loop```
A background task helper that abstracts the loop and reconnection logic for you.

The main interface to create this is through [`loop()`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ext/tasks/index.html#discord.ext.tasks.loop "discord.ext.tasks.loop").

[slate swan]

subclass this

[sick birch]

There's no indication of which arguments tasks.Loop takes though

[slate swan]

!d discord.ext.tasks.Loop.change_interval is exactly what ur looking for

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ext.tasks.Loop.change\_interval

change_interval(*, seconds=0, minutes=0, hours=0, time=...)```
Changes the interval for the sleep time.

New in version 1.2.

[sick birch]

So define a dummy task with 0 of everything, then change it later when necessary?

[slate swan]

yep, that should do!

[heady sluice]

is a voice channel an abc.Messageable now

[sick birch]

👍 thanks, will give that a shot

[slate swan]

looking at the source code, not yet
but with the implementation of voice text channels may be soon?

ill miss the #no-mic channels

[heady sluice]

I won't

never been in one

[slate swan]

does voice text channels have endpoints yet?

so bots can send messages and view the channel?

[heady sluice]

!d discord.VoiceChannel.last_message this exists for sure

[unkempt canyon]

discord.VoiceChannel.last\_message

property last_message```
Retrieves the last message from this channel in cache.

The message might not be valid or point to an existing message.

New in version 2.0.

Reliable Fetching

For a slightly more reliable method of fetching the last message, consider using either [`history()`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.VoiceChannel.history "discord.VoiceChannel.history") or [`fetch_message()`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.VoiceChannel.fetch_message "discord.VoiceChannel.fetch_message") with the [`last_message_id`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.VoiceChannel.last_message_id "discord.VoiceChannel.last_message_id") attribute.

[slate swan]

seen it but im not really looking for that

[maiden fable]

!d discord.abc.GuildChannel.changed_roles

[unkempt canyon]

discord.abc.GuildChannel.changed\_roles

property changed_roles```
Returns a list of roles that have been overridden from their default values in the [`roles`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.Guild.roles "discord.Guild.roles") attribute.

[heady sluice]

it kinda means you can view messages

[slate swan]

ik but i ment in voice chat text channels

[heady sluice]

yes

[maiden fable]

!d discord.VoiceChannel.send

[unkempt canyon]

discord.VoiceChannel.send

await send(content=None, *, tts=False, embed=None, embeds=None, file=None, files=None, stickers=None, delete_after=None, nonce=None, allowed_mentions=None, reference=None, ...)```
This function is a [*coroutine*](https://docs.python.org/3/library/asyncio-task.html#coroutine).

Sends a message to the destination with the content given.

The content must be a type that can convert to a string through `str(content)`. If the content is set to `None` (the default), then the `embed` parameter must be provided.

To upload a single file, the `file` parameter should be used with a single [`File`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.File "discord.File") object. To upload multiple files, the `files` parameter should be used with a [`list`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/stdtypes.html#list "(in Python v3.10)") of [`File`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.File "discord.File") objects. **Specifying both parameters will lead to an exception**.

To upload a single embed, the `embed` parameter should be used with a single [`Embed`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.Embed "discord.Embed") object. To upload multiple embeds, the `embeds` parameter should be used with a [`list`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/stdtypes.html#list "(in Python v3.10)") of [`Embed`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.Embed "discord.Embed") objects. **Specifying both parameters will lead to an exception**.

[slate swan]

mhm ig their is already endpoints

[maiden fable]

Seems like a yes

[slate swan]

What

[maiden fable]

new feature

[slate swan]

ooh Nice

[sick birch]

@slate swan Thanks for the help, subclassing did exactly what I wanted 😄

[flat solstice]

Does anyone have any resources they could link to me for setting up tests for my bots code? I want to set up some tests on something like circleci but I don't have any tests written. I've seen libs such as https://github.com/Cobular/distest and https://github.com/CraftSpider/dpytest which aim to make testing discord bot code easier but none of these, as far as I can see, support discord.py 2.0. I'm just interested to learn how others how write discord bots in python write their code tests

[sick birch]

You might wanna look into how discord.py itself tests their code: https://github.com/Rapptz/discord.py/tree/master/tests

[flat solstice]

Okay will do, thanks for the advice

[slate swan]

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

this is pog, especially for people with "who invited my bot" issues

[slate swan]

💀

[slate swan]

embed.set_thumbnail(url=user.avatar.url)

why does this not work, it says nonetype doesn't have attribute url but I am certain the user is a user object since I can make it print it's username and discriminator

[fading marlin]

consider using display_avatar instead

[slate swan]

Would this work on both discord.py and discord.py v2?

[fading marlin]

discord.py v1.7.3 no, it was added in v2

[slate swan]

Oh ok, do you know any alternative for discord.py 1?

[fading marlin]

well, on 1.7 avatar doesn't have a url attribute

[slate swan]

hikari, better and faster, but harder @slate swan

[sick birch]

It's avatar_url in 1.7.3 iirc

[fading marlin]

^

[slate swan]

Ok and I guess this isn't really related to discord bots but is there like a check I could do using subprocess to check what version of discord.py the one running the code has?

So when they have v2 I could make it display_avatar and if they have older I do avatar_url

[sick birch]

You really shouldn't be doing that

As having a stable environment you can predict is important

[fading marlin]

sys.version/sys.version_info discord.__version__/discord.version_info but just stick to one dpy version

[vocal plover]

thats python version not dpy version, no?

[slate swan]

Well yeah I guess that'd be quite complicated for no reason lol

[sick birch]

Set yourself up a virtual environment that way you don't have issues with package verions

[fading marlin]

oh, I thought they meant py, mb 😅

[sick birch]

If you really want to know though, check this for versioning info related to discord.py: https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/stable/api.html#version-related-info

[slate swan]

you can just pip show Library in the cmd, prob fastest and more informative

[sick birch]

They want it from within their code programatically

[slate swan]

os.system('pip discord.py --version)

would that work? I don't know how to get the version tho

[sick birch]

No need, just use discord.version_info from within your code

But again, probably not a good idea as you should have a stable, static environment

[slate swan]

it's for github haha that's kinda why

[sick birch]

if you're uploading it to github dockerize your app

[slate swan]

what's dockerize

[oblique forum]

how to convert file.pyc to file.py v3.9

[slate swan]

VersionInfo(major=2, minor=0, micro=0, releaselevel='alpha', serial=0)
I get returned this but idk what it means

[sick birch]

Use docker for your apps

You should always dockerize your apps, good practice

[unkempt canyon]

Hey @oblique forum!

It looks like you tried to attach file type(s) that we do not allow (.pyc). We currently allow the following file types: .gif, .jpg, .jpeg, .mov, .mp4, .mpg, .png, .mp3, .wav, .ogg, .webm, .webp, .flac, .m4a, .csv, .json.

Feel free to ask in #community-meta if you think this is a mistake.

[sick birch]

discord.__version__ gives a stringified version of that

[slate swan]

OOOOO

[oblique forum]

can some one help me please

[slate swan]

thanks bro
also how do u move to a different dsc version just to check

[oblique forum]

i can't back my soruce from pyc

[sick birch]

Update yourself to 2.0 to check

[slate swan]

Also idrk what that is lol

I am on 2.0 rn but don't know how to move back yk

[fading marlin]

uninstall your current dpy and use pypi to install it on version 1.7.3

[slate swan]

how to uninstall

Also I swear there was a command I used before to go to a version, something like
pip install discord==1.7.3
no?

[slate swan]

you can't, .pyc is just the cache file used for imports...

[oblique forum]

bruh no i found way but not work on v3.9

only 3.8 :"(

[fading marlin]

either way how does that relate in any way to discord bots?

[oblique forum]

no idon't know where i have to go

[fading marlin]

not entirely sure if you can use that to go back to a version, but tias ig

[fading marlin]

#❓｜how-to-get-help message or some topical category channel that covers that

[vale wing]

pip uninstall

I doubt this would work because 2.0 is installed from git and most likely "is not conflicting" with the package installed from pypi (in fact it does but pip might not recognise that)

[vale wing]

I mean this

So just pip freeze, copy your discord req and pip uninstall it

Or locate its installation (gonna be easier if installed in venv) and delete manually

[slate swan]

Go ahead and tell your issue

[flat solstice]

So I'm making a class which sets some defaults for my embeds, is the kwarg for the colour set as colour or color in the embed kwarg list? I know I can do

embed.colour.green()``` 
and 
```py
embed.color.green()```
but I'm doing this
```py
class PositiveEmbed(LogEmbed):
    def __init__(self, *args, **kwargs):
        if "colour" not in kwargs:
            kwargs["colour"] = discord.Colour.green()
        super().__init__(*args, **kwargs)``` 
and it seems a bit odd to me that the kwarg list would have both `colour` and `color` so is there some weird background converting done when `colour` is in the list/called to make it call `color`

[sick birch]

The kwarg list can have both, but it shouldn't, so I suppose you can assume that it's only going to have one

couldnt they just do

The color black would be false.

[visual island]

Why do you need to do inspect.getframeinfo()? inspect.stack()[1].code_context[0] already returns the code context, right?

[pliant gulch]

Why do you need an if string if you use it for just one variable.

role1.name, role2.name, etc
```but I've forgotten how to do it which is a bit nnoying

[cloud dawn]

", ".join([role.name for role in channel.overwrites if len(channel.changed_roles) >= 1])

[unkempt canyon]

Joining Iterables

If you want to display a list (or some other iterable), you can write:

colors = ['red', 'green', 'blue', 'yellow']
output = ""
separator = ", "
for color in colors:
    output += color + separator
print(output)
# Prints 'red, green, blue, yellow, '

However, the separator is still added to the last element, and it is relatively slow.

A better solution is to use str.join.

colors = ['red', 'green', 'blue', 'yellow']
separator = ", "
print(separator.join(colors))
# Prints 'red, green, blue, yellow'

An important thing to note is that you can only str.join strings. For a list of ints,
you must convert each element to a string before joining.

integers = [1, 3, 6, 10, 15]
print(", ".join(str(e) for e in integers))
# Prints '1, 3, 6, 10, 15'

``` i need help its not inserting

[cloud dawn]

Why are you adding this in on_ready?

[buoyant zodiac]

on the ready it adds all the people that aren't in the db

but i'm switching it to an on message so that only the author is added when they send message

[cloud dawn]

Just add a check if they are in the database or not when they access their account.

No need to add people that aren't going to use it anyways.

[buoyant zodiac]

how to process cmds?

in on message

[buoyant zodiac]

how?

[cloud dawn]

No clue I have never used mongo

[buoyant zodiac]

should it be like if user not in db

[cloud dawn]

Something like that

[crisp drift]

upsert exists if no data is found

[buoyant zodiac]

if user not in self.db.find({"_id": user.id}):
            self.db.insert_one({"_id": user.id,
            "bank": 0,
            "cash": 0,
            "notification": True})

its in the db but it still keeps looking for it

[lyric apex]

railwayapp is good for hosting bot?

[buoyant zodiac]

its still trying to enter it into the db

[crisp drift]

Obviously, you need to get that data to check if it needs to be inserted or not

[buoyant zodiac]

obviously im not understanding ..

[crisp drift]

.find_one_and_update(
    {'_id': 'userid'},
    {'$inc': {'seq': 1}},
    upsert=True,
    return_document=ReturnDocument.AFTER)
{'seq': 1}```

Using upsert will create the document if doesn't exist

I suggest you to move to #databases to get more help regarding databases

hold up no

im gonna go to #databases

[crisp drift]

Since you will need to get the data from the db anyway, you can leave that check and just do the method ive sent you. In a single method it gets the data and if not found it will create the document thats it

[buoyant zodiac]

self.db.find_one_and_update({"_id": user.id,
            "bank": 0,
            "cash": 0,
            "notification": True,
            upsert=True,
            return_document=ReturnDocument.AFTER})
```what should i do now

[alpine pewter]

Can someone help with this? Unsure how to fix this error.

[buoyant zodiac]

get the channel

!d discord.Guild.get_channel

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Guild.get\_channel

get_channel(channel_id, /)```
Returns a channel with the given ID.

Note

This does *not* search for threads.

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

[alpine pewter]

Got it, will try that.
Thank you

[keen mural]

anyone know where i can learn slash commands on d.py 2.0

[fading marlin]

docs: https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/interactions/api.html?highlight=command#application-commands
examples: https://github.com/Rapptz/discord.py/blob/master/examples/app_commands/basic.py
useful gist: https://gist.github.com/Rapptz/c4324f17a80c94776832430007ad40e6 (but kinda outdated)

[frozen patio]

How do I make my bot appear online but mobile

[slate swan]

Oi, so... ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'discord_slash' and I'm not able to startup my bot :/ I installed discord-py-slash-command and nothing changes

[frozen patio]

Don't use that lib

D.py has slash built in

[slate swan]

Oh?

[frozen patio]

Yes

[frozen patio]

@slate swan Read some of these

[slate swan]

U mean, u want your bot's online status to look like mobile?

[buoyant zodiac]

@commands.command()
    async def balance(self, ctx, user: discord.Member = None):
        user = ctx.author if user is None else user

error:

discord.ext.commands.errors.CommandInvokeError: Command raised an exception: AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'id'

[keen talon]

Lol it's unstable

[torn sail]

You don’t need user = self.bot.get_user(user) because u already have the user object

[frozen patio]

Yes

Does anyone know how to do this?

[fading marlin]

discord.py doesn't offer that feature

[torn sail]

you would have to change stuff with the gateway. I’m not sure exactly how to do it

But it’s possible

[fading marlin]

^

[frozen patio]

I use nextcord

[slate swan]

its a bug of the api, its an endpoint for users but can still be accessed by bots

[fading marlin]

eh, samething

[frozen patio]

Meh

[lyric apex]

why forks

[frozen patio]

Not important

[frozen patio]

Cause they are more stable that dpy

[slate swan]

some have better implementations than dpy imo

[lyric apex]

[sick birch]

You can but I do believe you have to tweak with the IDENTIFY payload, it's not supported and not recommended

[lone dust]

anyone know how to make the bot reply to your msg

[lone dust]

Like this...

[slate swan]

with ping or without ping?

[boreal ravine]

Specify the reference kwarg in the send method e.g. ```py
message = ...
channel = ...

await channel.send('Hello there.', reference=message)

[slate swan]

instead of using "ctx.send()"

do "ctx.reply(MSG, mention_user = True)"

MSG is whatever u want to be sent

[lone dust]

[pallid marsh]

You mean send the message as an embed instead?

@jade tartan

[jade tartan]

yes

correct

[jade tartan]

.

[pallid marsh]

embed = discord.Embed(title=“titleHere”, description=“descriptionHere”, color=“hexColorHere”)
embed.add_field(name=“nameHere”, value=“textHere”, inline=True/False)

You can add as many fields as you want (up to 25)

Here’s a list of the embed methods and attributes: https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/stable/api.html?highlight=embed#discord.Embed

[slate swan]

no

fields are only limited up to 25

and refer to the official docs instead of some external links

[slate swan]

!code

[unkempt canyon]

Here's how to format Python code on Discord:

```py
print('Hello world!')
```

These are backticks, not quotes. Check this out if you can't find the backtick key.

[pallid marsh]

The official dpy docs aren’t the most pleasant looking docs lol

[slate swan]

unless you know how to read documentation, they're all the same and dpy's are low-key good

Hello!

[slate swan]

hola

[pallid marsh]

Hi

[forest bramble]

I am coding a discord moderation bot. When I run the code in VS Code, the code doesn't run and shows and error which states ' SSL is not supported'. The same code runs very well in Replit. How can I fix this issue?

[maiden fable]

SSL Cert issue

[forest bramble]

How can I fix that?

[tropic flame]

so um guys im coding an ai discord bot and i am getting this errror- UnicodeDecodeError: 'charmap' codec can't decode byte 0x9d in position 1940: character maps to <undefined> from some time ( it was online and working before i added somethings)
this is my main.py - ```
import discord
import os
from dotenv import load_dotenv
from neuralintents import GenericAssistant
chatbot = GenericAssistant('noyyy.json')
chatbot.train_model()
chatbot.save_model()

client = discord.Client()

load_dotenv()

@client.event
async def on_message(message):
if message.author == client.user:
return
if message.content.startswith("&"):
response = chatbot.request(message.content[1:])
await message.channel.send(response)
client.run('t')```

i'd love it if anybody could help out

[maiden fable]

Isn't this type of config meant for chatterbot module? Idk

[slate swan]

could you show the traceback?

[maiden fable]

Anyways that means u have a non unicode char in yr file

[jade tartan]

Yeah but what if i want it to follow the message that i have set it up as ?

do i just add str attributes to it

[pallid marsh]

Wdym

[jade tartan]

So i have set up a welcome message the way i want it to but i want that message to be send as a embed

[tropic flame]

i don't really know which this my traceback - ```Traceback (most recent call last):
File "c:\Users\dhruv\OneDrive\Desktop\Dhruv_pycache_\Ayr.py", line 6, in <module>

[tropic flame]

mb

[forest bramble]

It is too big to show

[slate swan]

!paste it here

[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.

[tropic flame]

but like um any examples of non unicode character that could have been in my json file ?

[forest bramble]

this is ok?

[slate swan]

show your intents.json or smth if you have that

[pallid marsh]

If you set it up as some type of iterable you can just iterate through it and set the fields

[maiden fable]

Use a JSON sanitizer (if smth like that exists)

[maiden fable]

That's a key in his JSON file

[lyric apex]

Hunter and ash both ignored me

[forest bramble]

@slate swan

[jade tartan]

Ohh so meaning that the same way i set it up the way i need to add the text fields?

[maiden fable]

I never saw yr message, what do u need help with?

[lyric apex]

U forgot yesterday chat

[forest bramble]

Can you help me fix the issue?

[jade tartan]

    self.embed.set_footer(text = f"{self.username}'s query evaluated.")
    self.embed.set_author(name = f"{self.username}'s' query.", icon_url = ctx.message.author.avatar_url)
    self.embed.add_field(value = f"{self.operation}", inline = False)
    self.embed.add_field(value = "After evaluated, the result is :", inline = True)
    self.embed.add_field(value = f"{self.evaluate}", inline = True)
    await ctx.send(embed = self.embed)``` So like that

[lyric apex]

Oh god

[pallid marsh]

It looks right

[jade tartan]

ok

[forest bramble]

Ash ghosted me, Hunter ignored me

This module provides access to Transport Layer Security (often known as “Secure Sockets Layer”) encryption and peer authentication facilities for network sockets, both client-side and server-side. This module uses the OpenSSL library. It is available on all modern Unix systems, Windows, macOS, and probably additional platforms, as long as OpenSSL is installed on that platform.

Some behavior may be platform dependent, since calls are made to the operating system socket APIs. The installed version of OpenSSL may also cause variations in behavior. For example, TLSv1.3 with OpenSSL version 1.1.1.

[forest bramble]

breh

[shrewd apex]

also use os.getenv() it's much better for tokens

[forest bramble]

ik that

[maiden fable]

So why not use a single SQL query to get everything in the row, so it will return a tuple like ((msg_id), (channel_id), (guild_id)) and then do smth like:

guild = bot.get_guild(res[2]) 
channel = guild.get_channel(res[1]) 
msg = await channel.fetch_message(res[0]) 

(This is a psuedo code, istg if u try to copy this)

[forest bramble]

but since this is VS Code, i use it directly

@shrewd apex https://paste.pythondiscord.com/bunafomihu

[shrewd apex]

that don't matter

[lyric apex]

ohk lemmie do this

[maiden fable]

Seems like that emoji is yr fav

[shrewd apex]

what's ur dpy version nightmare?

[lyric apex]

You like it?

[maiden fable]

It's nice, but just made that comment since 99% of yr messages have that emoji

[forest bramble]

dpy?

I use nextcord

[shrewd apex]

yeah nextcord it looks like a SSL certificate has failed in the chain

what's the version tho

[lyric apex]

Ahh now i have addiction to that emoji

[forest bramble]

python version?

[shrewd apex]

both python and nextcord

[forest bramble]

python - 3.9.7

nextcord - latest - 2.0.0b2

[forest bramble]

This was what I was using in replit

so that's what i use now

@shrewd apex

[shrewd apex]

try
pip install --upgrade certifi

[shrewd apex]

u don't have a python path set

that might be the reason for error

[forest bramble]

How can I set that?

I'm new to VS Code. I used to use Replit before this.

[shrewd apex]

easiest way is when installing python there will be a checkbox click on that

[forest bramble]

????

[shrewd apex]

like ✅ add python to path

[forest bramble]

ok

[shrewd apex]

just install 3.10 and or 9 and do that

[forest bramble]

So, I already have python 3.9 installed in my computer

[shrewd apex]

it will automatically change any old settings with the new python path version if u wanna do it manually u can too

u have to go to c users local program data python

[forest bramble]

Just help me fix this error. Idk any of this

[forest bramble]

i did

it's stored there

[shrewd apex]

and select file to python.exe and put in system path variable

u can check Google how to do that tough to type on phone

[forest bramble]

ok

So, I create a shortcut for the python.exe and put it in the path where the main.py is stored right?

[shrewd apex]

no...

see Google on how to add python to system path variable

[slate swan]

just reinstall python, its way easier
make sure to click on "add to python" while doing yhst

[shrewd apex]

[shrewd apex]

it's a problem with that part of ur code u are not adding kwargs intents as the error says

[slate swan]

command_prefix is an kwarg ( key word argument ), so you would need to do ```py
bot = commands.Bot(command_prefix="prefix")

oh you already are, its the issue with intents then

[maiden fable]

Nice Discord also adding AutoMod

[lone dust]

but i still didnt get permission of intent

[shrewd apex]

u have to do intents=discord.Intents.all()

[slate swan]

bro thats gonna be annoying af

[lone dust]

but its working good on local machine

[maiden fable]

Dyno and MEE6: Are we nothing but a joke to discord?!

[slate swan]

that depends on your discord.py version
in 1.7.3: its not required
in 2.0: yes it is

[shrewd apex]

[maiden fable]

Smh y'all using global emojis now

[slate swan]

Discord is just trying to make all the bots useless

[lone dust]

i have 2.0 stil working fine in local machine

[maiden fable]

Agreed

[shrewd apex]

welp making a moderation bot wouldn't be my first choice anyway

[slate swan]

i doubt it, could you pip show discord.py in your terminal?

[shrewd apex]

discord is prolly trying to make bots focus only on entertainment part to promote their platform

[maiden fable]

Yea

[slate swan]

make a bot which bitches about discord implementations ez

!intents please read the developer portal part

[unkempt canyon]

Using intents in discord.py

Intents are a feature of Discord that tells the gateway exactly which events to send your bot. By default discord.py has all intents enabled except for Members, Message Content, and Presences. These are needed for features such as on_member events, to get access to message content, and to get members' statuses.

To enable one of these intents, you need to first go to the Discord developer portal, then to the bot page of your bot's application. Scroll down to the Privileged Gateway Intents section, then enable the intents that you need.

Next, in your bot you need to set the intents you want to connect with in the bot's constructor using the intents keyword argument, like this:

from discord import Intents
from discord.ext import commands

intents = Intents.default()
intents.members = True

bot = commands.Bot(command_prefix="!", intents=intents)

For more info about using intents, see the discord.py docs on intents, and for general information about them, see the Discord developer documentation on intents.

[shrewd apex]

[lone dust]

i did

[maiden fable]

But what I'm thinking is, why tf YT wanted to close the bots this late

[lone dust]

apply

[maiden fable]

I mean, they have been in usage since years

[shrewd apex]

yt did what?

[maiden fable]

Took down Music Bots

[shrewd apex]

ones with ytdl lib?

[slate swan]

what privileged intents do you have?

[maiden fable]

With/Without it

[shrewd apex]

OoO

[slate swan]

not really... anything using YouTube

[maiden fable]

Every. Music. Bot. Well, not every but u get it

[shrewd apex]

yeah few use Spotify api wrapper

[lone dust]

idk

[maiden fable]

Spotify: I'm coming!

[shrewd apex]

welp prolly like a light bulb moment idk i think i made one lemme try

[slate swan]

can you show us the the screenshot of your bot's bot page so we can know what intents you got

or just use ```py
intents=discord.Intents.default()
intents.message_content = True

 instead of `discord.Intents.all()`

[lone dust]

i am doing this

[shrewd apex]

it works in mine tho

[lone dust]

but i still cant use it

[slate swan]

cause you got those intents

[forest bramble]

Done man

[maiden fable]

Lmao I can sense another method coming, discord.Intents.important()

[shrewd apex]

not intents music bot...

i use ffmpeg and ytdl....

[slate swan]

um, show code

[shrewd apex]

lmao

[lone dust]

intents = discord.Intents.default()
intents.members = True
#intents=discord.Intents.all()
bot = commands.Bot(command_prefix=commands.when_mentioned_or('z.', 'Z.'), description='Basic commands for Zeram', intents=intents)
bot.remove_command('help')

[shrewd apex]

now run

[slate swan]

i wish we could use bytewise operators like we do in hikari, its so easy

[shrewd apex]

just do intents=discord.Intents.all()

[forest bramble]

same error

[slate swan]

you don't have member intents and you are trying to enable it

[shrewd apex]

after the pip command i said u to do b4

[lone dust]

i cant enable any intent right now on my dev portal

[forest bramble]

k

[lone dust]

i applied for it

[shrewd apex]

enable then save

[slate swan]

so you can't use them either, is your bot verified or something?

[shrewd apex]

oh verified bot i think

[lone dust]

it is verified

[shrewd apex]

then wait for them to authorise till then rollback to 1.7.3

[slate swan]

Yeah so thats the issue, request for member intents first
wait for discord to approve it
then you can use it

[lone dust]

bruh

[shrewd apex]

it's not added

[forest bramble]

I added python in system environment variables

[lone dust]

can u tell me what are the options i can use for member intent?

[shrewd apex]

umm u need intents there are no replacements?

[shrewd apex]

go to #❓｜how-to-get-help for adding python path

[forest bramble]

ok

[shrewd apex]

just reinstall it it's so much easier

[slate swan]

adding to system envs is easier....

[slate swan]

options?

[lone dust]

yes there is a form

they asking me to fill the form

to approve my request

i starting working on my bot after so long

[slate swan]

then fill it

[lone dust]

i didnt know they changed alot of things

[shrewd apex]

[maiden fable]

Not easy for people who haven't spent much time with Windows/a programming lang

[slate swan]

just delete windows

[maiden fable]

You can start, I will follow suit

[slate swan]

i already did, follow me

[maiden fable]

Nice

[slate swan]

hunter

[maiden fable]

[slate swan]

what...?

go to ot channels or else

How can I create and delete channels?

[slate swan]

!d discord.Guild.create_text_channel

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Guild.create\_text\_channel

await create_text_channel(name, *, reason=None, category=None, news=False, position=..., topic=..., slowmode_delay=..., nsfw=..., overwrites=..., default_auto_archive_duration=...)```
This function is a [*coroutine*](https://docs.python.org/3/library/asyncio-task.html#coroutine).

Creates a [`TextChannel`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.TextChannel "discord.TextChannel") for the guild.

Note that you need the [`manage_channels`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.Permissions.manage_channels "discord.Permissions.manage_channels") permission to create the channel.

The `overwrites` parameter can be used to create a ‘secret’ channel upon creation. This parameter expects a [`dict`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/stdtypes.html#dict "(in Python v3.10)") of overwrites with the target (either a [`Member`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.Member "discord.Member") or a [`Role`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.Role "discord.Role")) as the key and a [`PermissionOverwrite`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.PermissionOverwrite "discord.PermissionOverwrite") as the value.

Note

Creating a channel of a specified position will not update the position of other channels to follow suit. A follow-up call to [`edit()`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.TextChannel.edit "discord.TextChannel.edit") will be required to update the position of the channel in the channel list...

[slate swan]

and for category's?

i forgot the dir so you would need to check docs

😔

noo 😭

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Guild.create\_category

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

Same as [`create_text_channel()`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.Guild.create_text_channel "discord.Guild.create_text_channel") except makes a [`CategoryChannel`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.CategoryChannel "discord.CategoryChannel") instead.

Note

The `category` parameter is not supported in this function since categories cannot have categories.

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

discord.CategoryChannel.create\_text\_channel

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

A shortcut method to [`Guild.create_text_channel()`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.Guild.create_text_channel "discord.Guild.create_text_channel") to create a [`TextChannel`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.TextChannel "discord.TextChannel") in the category.

[slate swan]

so I can just await guild.create_category ? or ctx.

guild = ctx.message.guild
await guild.create_category('cool-channel')

?

oh

[lyric apex]

How to get more than 1 choice in random.choice

[slate swan]

How can I organize where a new channel or category will go?

[paper sluice]

!e

import random

################ 1 choice ################
print(random.choice(range(10)))

############### multiple #################
print(random.choices(range(10), k=10))

[unkempt canyon]

@paper sluice :white_check_mark: Your eval job has completed with return code 0.

001 | 4
002 | [0, 3, 2, 6, 2, 3, 7, 1, 5, 2]

discord.CategoryChannel.position

The position in the category list. This is a number that starts at 0. e.g. the top category is position 0.

[slate swan]

how is it used?

[lyric apex]

k means?

[paper sluice]

number of random choices u want

[lyric apex]

Range

[paper sluice]

range is just an iterable...

[slate swan]

and this would go after I create the category ?

[slate swan]

its sorta like a generator

[lyric apex]

Got it

[slate swan]

i need sleep

[lyric apex]

i want to mention users in a reaction

[slate swan]

@client.command()
async def test(ctx):
    guild = ctx.message.guild
    await guild.create_category('information')
    await guild.edit(position=0)

didn't move the category. whatd I do wrong?

Can we move a channel to a category

and to move a created channel under this category?

Docs pls

[unkempt canyon]

discord.TextChannel.edit

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

Edits the channel.

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

Changed in version 1.3: The `overwrites` keyword-only parameter was added.

Changed in version 1.4: The `type` keyword-only parameter was added.

Changed in version 2.0: Edits are no longer in-place, the newly edited channel is returned instead...

[slate swan]

Okay

Thanks 👍

@slate swan it seems it moved the channel I create but not the category

[desert cosmos]

i am running two programs with same token everything works fine except slash commands
lets say the first program have slash commands and the 2nd one only have text commands(no slash commands)
whenever i use slash command from bot all the commands disappears after that

for instance when i define slash commands in second program they don't appear until the first program's any one slash command is called and when we call then all commands from first program disappears and it only shows second program's slash commands

[slate swan]

@client.command()
async def test(ctx):
    category = await ctx.guild.create_category(name="information")
    await category.edit(position=0)
    category = await ctx.guild.create_text_channel(name="info")
    await category.edit(position=0)

does it make that much of a difference?

get the ID of a channel by name?

  print(channel.id)

(edited)

[slate swan]

what

[slate swan]

nothing

smh

[shrewd apex]

[left idol]

can i only use *args when working with commands.ext? if it is possible, how would i use it for slash/bridge commands. i followed docs for bridge and slash but i get an error function got unexpected keyword 'arg'

[shrewd apex]

can u show ur code?

[left idol]

yeah sure 1 sec

import discord
from discord.ext import bridge
import os
from dotenv import load_dotenv

bot = bridge.Bot(command_prefix="/")
load_dotenv()

@bot.event
async def on_ready():
    print('Ok')

@bot.bridge_command()
async def list(ctx,args):
    users = ', '.join(args)
    await ctx.send(users)

bot.run(os.getenv('TOKEN')) # run the bot with the token

perhaps i did not follow docs

[shrewd apex]

its *args

[left idol]

1 sec i think that was an older version

[shrewd apex]

also slash commands dont have ctx as far as ik

[left idol]

waiting for bot to restart cuz iirc i tried with *args as well but it gave me same error

[shrewd apex]

!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.

[shrewd apex]

idk abt this bridge command i have to read the docs but

async def list(ctx, *args): or (ctx, *, args)
    users = ', '.join(args)
    await ctx.send(users)

should work

[left idol]

yeah with *args before it gave same error
alright, lemme try

based on what bridge said i thought i could use it just like a slash or command

[shrewd apex]

slash commands have diffrent decorators i think not sure never tried

[paper sluice]

which lib r u using?

[shrewd apex]

but slash command dont have ctx

they have interaction

[left idol]

pycord

[alpine pewter]

@tasks.loop(seconds=5)
async def status():
    reference = db.reference(f"/")
    value = reference.child(client_guild_name).get()
    server_status = value["status_channel"]
    print(server_status)

For a task loop, does anyone know how would you get the guild id/name?

[paper sluice]

https://guide.pycord.dev/interactions/application-commands/slash-commands/

[left idol]

i think syntax error for the or

yea it gave syntax

[left idol]

i'm trying to use *args with slash commands if possible

[jaunty venture]

@paper sluice can you help with option choices in slash commands

[left idol]

and was hoping that bridge could help

[shrewd apex]

u have to pass the name/id in the task loop somehow

[shrewd apex]

try to get the slash commands working first before moving to the args part go one step at a time

[left idol]

yeah the slash command works

[paper sluice]

u get a input box thingy while calling a slash command, it kinda works like *, args

[paper sluice]

which lib? pycord?

[jaunty venture]

yes

[paper sluice]

i dont use pycord

but ask anyways, who knows will help you 😄

[left idol]

*, args turns all inputs into 1 string right?

[alpine pewter]

@tasks.loop(seconds=5)
async def status(guild):
    client_guild_name = bot.get_guild.name
    reference = db.reference(f"/")
    value = reference.child(client_guild_name).get()
    server_status = value["status_channel"]
    print(server_status)

Do you think something like this would work?
I'm unsure if the bot.get_guild.name is even possible.

I've never really used loops.

[paper sluice]

yes (only while working with bots, in normal python functions it does something else :)

[shrewd apex]

the way i do this is i have my task loop inside a class and i use the bot db connection from the class init and use it in the task loop

[left idol]

ok so can i take my input and just store it in a list and then call for it later?

[alpine pewter]

I don't think I'd be able to do that 😂
I'm still newer but I'll probably give it a try.

Thank you ^^

[shrewd apex]

u can just put the task in ur cogs class and u can use the self.bot there should be simple for a beginner

even in main code u can just put task in directly and then use bot object since u have prolly declared it globally

[alpine pewter]

I think I might try it in a cog, I have it in my main to put it together.
I'm new to databases and loops, so, just a bit confusing. Might need to just pull up something on them.

Global might be a simple fix though actually, hold on. lol

How to add description to slash commands in pycord?

[slate swan]

for?

It is at @bot.slash_command(description = "this thing")?

Actually nevermind it is.

But how do I add description to the args of slash commands?

[slate swan]

ye on disnake. but idk abt the pycord lib

[slate swan]

Should be the same on both ig.
Suppose the command is like
/test name:

how do i add description to that name?

[slate swan]

iirc there is option that allows u to add descriptions to the args

not sure

@bot.slash_command(option = [some list])?

That makes sense.

Okay, last question. How do I add like infinite args in slash commands?

Or it's not possible yet?

[slate swan]

ye

Like with the tradition commands it was like ctx, *, yourargs

or somethn

[slate swan]

oh ion think u'll need that? in slash commands

I don't really need it but just asking.

cuz it already supports that?

I need it for like umm
Let's suppose I want to make a make a /rank command which will show me the rank of everyone I mention.

It could be one, it could be 10,

[slate swan]

ah

well idk haha

any number. How do I create a command to show that?
/rank name1: p1 name2: p2 ......

Okay thennnn 1 moreee question. Do you know what are message commands? Are they just what the prefix commands are?

!d disnake.ext.commands.Greedy

[unkempt canyon]

disnake.ext.commands.Greedy

class disnake.ext.commands.Greedy```
A special converter that greedily consumes arguments until it can’t. As a consequence of this behaviour, most input errors are silently discarded, since it is used as an indicator of when to stop parsing.

When a parser error is met the greedy converter stops converting, undoes the internal string parsing routine, and continues parsing regularly.

For example, in the following code:

```py
@commands.command()
async def test(ctx, numbers: Greedy[int], reason: str):
    await ctx.send("numbers: {}, reason: {}".format(numbers, reason))
```  An invocation of `[p]test 1 2 3 4 5 6 hello` would pass `numbers` with `[1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6]` and `reason` with `hello`...

[slate swan]

this works on commands but idk if it will work on slash commands

[slate swan]

I can experiment with that. Good to know. What about the replied question if you have any idea?

[slate swan]

no idea

Alright, thanks a lot tho' mate. You were really helpful!

class donations(commands.Cog):
    
    def __init__(self, client):

async def setup(client):
    await client.add_cog(donations(client))

command 'edonate' is not found | but i did load the cog

[ashen perch]

hey i wasnt able to find the question only so im hoping someone here might know. so im trying to find what the maximum size (in px) that an embed image can be?

[jagged adder]

          if msg.content.lower() == '&skip':
                ctx.bot.game_states[str(game_channel.id)].location = Locations.MainMenu
                ctx.bot.game_states[str(game_channel.id)].Intro_Spoken = True
                await game_channel.send("*Welcome to*\n "

this should only fire off if i type &skip right

because im having a problem where it appears to be firing off even if the msg isnt &skip

[slate swan]

depends on your msg variable

how do you define that?

[jagged adder]

msg = await ctx.bot.wait_for('message', timeout=None, check=game_check)

[slate swan]

yeah, if the message's content is &skip it should work

[jagged adder]

and if it isnt, then it should skip past right

because for some bizzare reason, it seems to be looping me back to that text anytime i enter a valid option, regardless of what it is

[slate swan]

thats upto your game_check function

what do you check in there?

[jagged adder]

    def game_check(message: discord.Message):
        return message.author == ctx.author and message.channel == game_channel and message.content.lower() in [*ctx.bot.game_states[str(game_channel.id)].valid_game_options, 'pause', 'resume', 'inv', 'inventory', 'end', '&skip']

hang on gotta check something

[slate swan]

this seems fine

[jagged adder]

yeah; i presume its not a bug, but im not sure why its doing what its doing

[slate swan]

How do I make the button to only be clicked by a particular role?

are you using Button class or the @button decorator?

Decorator

[fringe island]

any teacher here?
have time for me and interest in guiding me?

any brother?

[slate swan]

could i see your code, so i can get some reference how you want to use it

[slate swan]

python, or discord.py?

[heady sluice]

is that a list in a list?

[digital mason]

Discord is asking for verification now my bot is close to 100 users, what do you think about this

Should I give my id or not

[slate swan]

if you want to verify your bot, thats the only way
it needs an ID to verify that you're over 16

[digital mason]

Is there any risk

Anyone know how to install the latest version of discord 2.0

[slate swan]

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

[jade tartan]

You should consider upgrading via the 'C:\Users\thoma\Desktop\MyBot\venv\Scripts\python.exe -m pip install --upgrade pip' command.``` do you know how to fix this

[desert cosmos]

it contains the answer ig
python3 -m pip install --upgrade pip

[slate swan]

*--upgrade pip also, its not an error, its just a warning

[desert cosmos]

yeah it should not be a problem installing discord v2.0

[jade tartan]

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

[desert cosmos]

mb

[slate swan]

you should probably be using py since you're on a windows system

[desert cosmos]

try using py

[jade tartan]

ok

[desert cosmos]

you have your python on path right ?

[jade tartan]

Well yes i am using py

[slate swan]

seems like they do, else they would never get that warning from pip while installation.

[jade tartan]

It still the same eror

error

[desert cosmos]

you have installed python from microsoft store ?

[slate swan]

pip install --upgrade pip

[desert cosmos]

ic

[jade tartan]

umm no

from the website it self

[slate swan]

i hate microsoft for having no fixed name for python installations, sometimes its py, sometimes its python or sometimes python3

[jade tartan]

Check the permissions.```

[desert cosmos]

aah do you use vsc ?

[jade tartan]

Yes

[desert cosmos]

try using powershell

[robust fulcrum]

@paper sluice you told me to put the decorator
If i want that if someone select yes option my bot send the dm to a user provided in the command

How to do that?

[paper sluice]

in the callback do something like if select[0] == 'yes': <code for sending dm>

[robust fulcrum]

I have a variable called {user} and {message} in the command
Will these varibales work ?

[paper sluice]

show code

[robust fulcrum]

Ok

[slate swan]

I......don't know

[slate swan]

its either, self.values[0] or interaction.data.get("name")[0]

both of those work

[paper sluice]

ah right, there is also select.valueswhich returns a list

not select[0]

How to fix?

[heady sluice]

you didn't put anything in the callback....

[robust fulcrum]

Not for that

[heady sluice]

so are you just not going to tell

[jade tiger]

import discord

client = discord.Client()

@client.event
async def on_ready():
  print('We have logged in as {0.user}'.format(client))

@client.event
async def on_message(message):
  if message.author == client.user:
    return 

  if message.content.startsWith('hello'):
    await message.channel.send('Hello!')

I typed this code and the I typed hello in the chat nothing seems working, also I am just a beginner to discord.py and will appreciated if someone helps. thanks in advance.

[paper sluice]

its startswith not startsWith

[jade tiger]

thank you!

[robust fulcrum]

I'll tell

[slate swan]

is there a lib that u can scrape bots from memberlist with?

[robust fulcrum]

Like i have a variable called {mes} and {user} in my command and i any the when someone click on send option it send dm to {user} and {mes} how to?

[heady sluice]

it's hard because you have to pass the member and text to your view

[robust fulcrum]

How can I do it?

Ik it's hard but it's not impossible

[heady sluice]

class DropdownView(discord.ui.View):
    def __init__(self, member, text):
        # other initilzation stuff ...
        super().__init__()
        self.member_to_send_to = member
        self.text_to_send = text

class dropdown(commands.Cog):
    def __init__(self, bot):
        self.bot = bot
        
    @commands.command()
    async def dm(self,ctx,user: discord.Member = None):
        await ctx.send("pls send the message you want to send!")
        mes = await self.bot.wait_for('message', check=check,timeout=20)
        view = DropdownView(user, mes.content)
        await ctx.send("do you want to send message?",view=view)

the callback would look weird

[robust fulcrum]

Hmm

[robust fulcrum]

How would call back look?

Can you tell once it would be helpful to me

[heady sluice]

I don't know, I've only seen the variant where the Dropdown is a subclass of discord.ui.Select

where the value that was chosen is stored inside self.values

yes

!d discord.VoiceChannel.send now exists

[unkempt canyon]

discord.VoiceChannel.send

await send(content=None, *, tts=False, embed=None, embeds=None, file=None, files=None, stickers=None, delete_after=None, nonce=None, allowed_mentions=None, reference=None, ...)```
This function is a [*coroutine*](https://docs.python.org/3/library/asyncio-task.html#coroutine).

Sends a message to the destination with the content given.

The content must be a type that can convert to a string through `str(content)`. If the content is set to `None` (the default), then the `embed` parameter must be provided.

To upload a single file, the `file` parameter should be used with a single [`File`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.File "discord.File") object. To upload multiple files, the `files` parameter should be used with a [`list`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/stdtypes.html#list "(in Python v3.10)") of [`File`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.File "discord.File") objects. **Specifying both parameters will lead to an exception**.

To upload a single embed, the `embed` parameter should be used with a single [`Embed`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.Embed "discord.Embed") object. To upload multiple embeds, the `embeds` parameter should be used with a [`list`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/stdtypes.html#list "(in Python v3.10)") of [`Embed`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.Embed "discord.Embed") objects. **Specifying both parameters will lead to an exception**.

!d discord.ui.View.interaction_check

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ui.View.interaction\_check

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

A callback that is called when an interaction happens within the view that checks whether the view should process item callbacks for the interaction.

This is useful to override if, for example, you want to ensure that the interaction author is a given user.

The default implementation of this returns `True`.

Note

If an exception occurs within the body then the check is considered a failure and [`on_error()`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/interactions/api.html#discord.ui.View.on_error "discord.ui.View.on_error") is called.

[slate swan]

@slate swan ^ use this

If I want people to enter args in a fixed way. How do I do that?
Like /test arg1: key1 arg2: key2 ...

Not /test arg2: key1 arg5: key2 ...

Also, what are those messages called which are dismissable and only visible to the person who used the command?

[slate swan]

which library? and those are called ephemeral messages which can only be used with slash commands and views

[slate swan]

discord2 or pycord

[slate swan]

import discord 

bot = discord.Bot()

@bot.slash_command()
async def uwu(inter, arg1: str, arg2: str):
   ...```

[slate swan]

Possible to do like

if role in interaction.user.roles:
           . . .

[heady sluice]

ew

[slate swan]

sorry....

[heady sluice]

pycord moment

[slate swan]

What if I want to do a .respond instead of ephemeral if a certain arg is true?

[heady sluice]

EW

[slate swan]

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

[slate swan]

?

better switch to disnake or nextcord, thry are the same; but disnake's examples are better and updates are pushed earlier than py-cord, their last update to the lib was 5 days ago

from disnake.ext import commands

bot = commands.Bot() #all arguments are optional

@bot.slash_command()
async def test(inter: disnake.CommandInteraction):
    ...```
same

[heady sluice]

much better

it has errors

but at least no uwu command

[slate swan]

.ext uhh

[heady sluice]

comands

[slate swan]

I'm gonna sound like a psycho, but consider hikari

[slate swan]

commands
By the way, would you recommend switching to disnake?

[slate swan]

You definitely are lmaoo.

[slate swan]

yeah

[slate swan]

okay that was rude

[slate swan]

Alright 👍
By the way, the GitHub in yout bio is probably ded. Link ain't loading.

sigh

thats why they shit on app commands

said that multiple times

[heady sluice]

I still won't use Client

bot has a CommandTree by default

but why do y'all use client.start now

so you can run 2000 bots in one script

[mossy jacinth]

shouldnt this work?

I want the bot to send the video link whenever the user with the ID says something

    ...

[slate swan]

lmao

[visual island]

This if statement will never be True

[maiden fable]

Cause two issues

String and not accessing ID attr

BTW @visual island did u see andy's solution

[visual island]

yep

Sadly it didn't work well with instance/class methods

[maiden fable]

That sucks

[slate swan]

Can bots add and read notes on user?

[vocal plover]

no

why would they need to? bots dont need discord to remember things, thats what a database is for

[slate swan]

Just could come in handy

how-

Is there a place to hire someone to make a bot?

[slate swan]

like you could store small data on notes for a particular user, like his settings for the bot without creating an additional file

[slate swan]

not here.

[slate swan]

Where ?

Bro u know integer

It will not work

[slate swan]

I swear I had a fucking stroke writing vco's full name

[nimble plume]

we don't start var with numbers because it can be written normally

and it will raise invalid syntax

also if we hover to the id attribute it show literal int

Hence proved it is int

so u need to remove the quotes

so it's a integer

and it will work fine

[slate swan]

it won't ever do that

[slate swan]

it'll be a Member/User object, depending upon where the command/event was run/dispatched from
