Nice, nitro

[pearl fjord]

Don't encourage people who give discord money ay

[maiden fable]

He isn't a regular nitro buyer

[slate swan]

did you pass it in the bot class?

[slate swan]

i never bought one myself

[slate swan]

imagine buying it

[maiden fable]

I never bought it

Too expensive

[slate swan]

Is this ur first nitro? Btw

7+ times

oh lol Nice

[maiden fable]

I have also got nitro like 4-5 times, everytime it was a gift

[slate swan]

Lucky

[maiden fable]

Indeed

[slate swan]

fix?

[heavy folio]

show full code

[slate swan]

@bot.command()
async def daykey(ctx, amount):

    await asyncio.sleep(1)
    await ctx.send(f"i worked")

@heavy folio

is that after bot.run()

[heavy folio]

or did you make 2 clients

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.

[spring flax]

i have this func ```py
def convert_to_stars(overall):
ratings = []
stars = {1 : "full" , 0.75 : "three quater " , 0.5 : "half" , 0.25 : "quater"}

for star in stars:
    n = int(overall//star)
    ratings.extend([stars[star]] * n)
    overall -= star * n

return ratings

And based on the outcome of the func, I want it to send emojis from these:

FULL_STAR = bot.get_emoji(982990723660005436)
HALF_STAR = bot.get_emoji(982991530442784798)
THREE_QUARTER_STAR = bot.get_emoji(982991395595890758)
QUARTER_STAR = bot.get_emoji(982991561161838632)

this is what the func returns

[maiden fable]

What's the issue?

no errors in terminal
the embed is sent without the select menu

[slate swan]

add the item first, then call the super().init

class Select2(discord.ui.Select):
    def __init__(self):
        options=[
            discord.SelectOption(label="Deny",emoji=":cross8:",description="Choose to decline the donation"),
            discord.SelectOption(label="Hold",emoji=":load:",description="Choose to put the donation on hold"),
            discord.SelectOption(label="Accept",emoji=":tick:",description="Choose to accept the donation")
            ]

``` this?

not that, in ur view class

k

class SelectView1(discord.ui.View):
    def __init__(self, *, timeout = 180):
        self.add_item(Select2())
        super().__init__(timeout=timeout)
```?

yep try this

[slate swan]

Still the same

[fresh ferry]

hey everyone, wanting to figure out if discord has a function that allows me to read a users custom activity messages im using it to Quarantine users who custom messages in there profile that have curse words or anything hurtful/racist/harmful to other users. anyone know of a way ?

[vale wing]

Yes I think there's an attribute

[fresh ferry]

was thinking of using the CustomActivity

@bot.command()
async def mycustomstatus(ctx):
    for s in ctx.author.activities:
        if isinstance(s, discord.CustomActivity):
            await ctx.send(s)

[vale wing]

I don't remember which one lemme check it out

[fresh ferry]

mountains wouldn't show how grateful i would be ❤️

[slate swan]

@slate swan ^

[vale wing]

@fresh ferry so basically you are trying to get member's status text right?

[fresh ferry]

yeah and then code my to constantly detect from all users in the server to detect banned words and then ill code it to remove all roles and add a "Quarantine" like role

[vale wing]

Ok haven't ever worked with statuses lemme seek some info

[slate swan]

really weird, the syntax looks fine enough

[maiden fable]

First call the super() then add

[slate swan]

Got the same code for my help command
It works there

[slate swan]

making her go in circles 😔 sarth told her to put it above and now you

though it should be below

💀

class SelectView1(discord.ui.View):
    def __init__(self, *, timeout = 180):
        super().__init__(timeout=timeout)
        self.add_item(Select2())

[slate swan]

no errors?

Yea

No errors

[slate swan]

weird, might as well ask in the dpy server

hm k

[fresh ferry]

thank you thank you, its sort of a problem iv been wanting to sort out as once said bot is made i want to release it on github, discord doesn't ban harmful words via the custom activity and i cant tell you some of the stuff iv come across... want a way to moderate these problems.

i however have a bot already coded up ready to be posted to github regarding the custom presences of a profile 'for example' → user is playing call of duty | user changes name of call of duty to harmful/hateful word or words. → my bot will then remove said users roles and give a Quarantine role where all other members will not see said Quarantined user so owner can further investigate the matter

[vale wing]

@fresh ferry ok yeah you were right, you just need to get CustomActivity activity and access its name attribute

I guess it will always be first activity in activities list

Also don't forget to enable presences intent on dev portal and in code

[vale wing]

Games have different activity type and don't inherit from CustomActivity iirc

[crimson compass]

How do i put “footer” in my embed?

[vale wing]

!d discord.Embed.set_footer

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Embed.set\_footer

set_footer(*, text=None, icon_url=None)```
Sets the footer for the embed content.

This function returns the class instance to allow for fluent-style chaining.

[crimson compass]

Thank you

[fresh ferry]

or you can use this

embed=discord.Embed(title="title", description="description", color=0xff0000)
embed.set_author(name="name", url="url", icon_url="icon")
embed.set_thumbnail(url="thumbnail")
embed.add_field(name="field", value="value", inline=False)
embed.set_footer(text="footer")
await ctx.send(embed=embed)

[vale wing]

set_footer that's it

[fresh ferry]

yeah, and i guess my problem is i want to try and read this

FYI im using a moderator in this server as an example of the idea im trying to achieve

[oak warren]

nah you cant do that

only watching listening and playing is allowed

[vale wing]

Your way of reading status was correct

[vale wing]

He's not setting presence but reading it from users

[oak warren]

i k

i was talking about reading i dont think you can read it

[vale wing]

Well I just tested and read it

You can

[slate swan]

thats weird cause ur code works for me

[oak warren]

oh well

[vale wing]

status = ctx.author.activities[0].name```
@fresh ferry seems like status activity will always be the first in this list but I am unsure of this

[slate swan]

[slate swan]

i changed the emojis cause they won't work for me

[vale wing]

Or ctx.author.activity

[slate swan]

Hmmm

What could this be

[fresh ferry]

might have worked, ill update you if it is, just testing now

[slate swan]

do you by any chance have SelectView1 or Select2 defined again?

[slate swan]

nope

[slate swan]

can i see a screenshot of the command usage

[fresh ferry]

could i message you my source to check over to make sure it makes sense ?

[vale wing]

Sure

[fresh ferry]

dmed you 🙂

[slate swan]

tru adding a print statement in the view's and select'a init to see if the classes are initialised or not

hm k

[slate swan]

Nothing is printed

Added print at end of the class

Below self.add_item(Select2())

[shrewd apex]

[slate swan]

hm it seems like those classes don't get initialised then
can you ctrl+f and type SelectView1

[stiff fern]

So I installed discord slash commands through pip but its not showing up in vscode I guess?

[heavy folio]

dont use discord_slash
use discord.py 2.0, has buttons, selects, app commands and more
pip install -U git+https://github.com/Rapptz/discord.py

[stiff fern]

oh alright

[heavy folio]

and uninstall discord slash

[stiff fern]

[slate swan]

can you send the complete file? it will be easier to figure out the issue

How to create role that will be displayed separately, have red color and will be at the top?

[boreal ravine]

Why do my slash commands not appear when I sync to a certain guild?

[maiden fable]

!d discord.Guild.create_role

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Guild.create\_role

await create_role(*, name=..., permissions=..., color=..., colour=..., hoist=..., display_icon=..., mentionable=..., reason=None)```
This function is a [*coroutine*](https://docs.python.org/3/library/asyncio-task.html#coroutine).

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

All fields are optional.

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

Changed in version 1.6: Can now pass `int` to `colour` keyword-only parameter.

New in version 2.0: The `display_icon` keyword-only parameter was added...

[heavy folio]

check the tree's commands

[maiden fable]

hoist=True, color=discord.Color.red

[maiden fable]

What lib

[boreal ravine]

how?

[heavy folio]

!d discord.app_commands.CommandTree.walk_commands

[boreal ravine]

d.py

[stable leaf]

thx

[boreal ravine]

I'll try tomorrow, thanks.

[heavy folio]

actually mb

this instead

[unkempt canyon]

discord.app\_commands.CommandTree.fetch\_commands

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

Fetches the application’s current commands.

If no guild is passed then global commands are fetched, otherwise the guild’s commands are fetched instead.

Note

This includes context menu commands.

[stable leaf]

the color doesn't work

[paper sluice]

is there something like setup_hooks in hikari/lightbulb or do i have to do it in the init dunder?

[slate swan]

what you wanna do?

use hikari.StartedEvent, its called only once in the complete runtime

[paper sluice]

ah ok

[slate swan]

( actually StartingEvent )

the startedevent is like on_ready which may get triggered multiple times if your bot reconnects to the gateway

[stiff fern]

?

[paper sluice]

what about while subclass lightbulb.BotApp?

[slate swan]

does it need to be async?

[paper sluice]

no

[slate swan]

use the init dunder then

[paper sluice]

aight

[slate swan]

subclassing BotApp/GatewayBot is better cuz they wont allow you to add custom attributes to them with the bot= lightbulb.BotApp(); bot.apple = "banana" method due to the presence of __slots__

[paper sluice]

ya i noticed that

[slate swan]

you can use bot.d.attribute tho d here is a dataclass ( added in lightbulb only )

[paper sluice]

ah k

this is nice, load_extensions_from ignores files starting with _ by default

[slate swan]

yeah, cause they are mostly __init__.py files

[paper sluice]

ya its good for me, i prefix files with _ if they are not finished

if there is like a syntax error or something in the one of the extensions, will it raise syntax error or what?

[slate swan]

yes, it should

yeah

[paper sluice]

hmm nice

[pliant gulch]

The one thing I will never understand, why does discord.py use so many generics

Like, commands.Bot is generic, iirc?

Cogs are generic, context is generic

There are probably more, I could look into it, but I'm too lazy

[stiff fern]

Do you think its better to make a new .py file for every command or to have files under a specific category and then have all commands relating to that category in a single file

[paper sluice]

i make a file for each file, i feel its easier to manage. But if ur commands are very small and if it makes sense to have them in one file then go for it

[stiff fern]

thank ya

[stiff fern]

How am I doing this wrong?

oh nvm

[potent spear]

still an issue?

[slate swan]

yes

[potent spear]

alright, I need full traceback and relevant code

[unkempt canyon]

Hey @slate swan!

You either uploaded a .txt file or entered a message that was too long. Please use our paste bin instead.

[slate swan]

new error

[stiff fern]

How would I get a bots activity

I know you can do change_presence but that just changes it?

[tacit token]

just restart the vsc

[stiff fern]

I already solved that one ty tho

[tacit token]

sir!

[heady sluice]

music bot?

[heady sluice]

bot.user.activity

[stiff fern]

ty

[heady sluice]

oe maybe bot.activity would work too

and that one for sure doesn't make an API call

[stiff fern]

yea

ill mess w/ it I just needed a guideline

[slate swan]

yes

that sucks

ytdl or wavelink?

welp its fine as long as i dont help others or show how to do the same

[slate swan]

I need the bot to write in the status looks for the "number" of servers

[heady sluice]

len(bot.guilds)

[slate swan]

what variable is responsible for the number of servers

[shrewd apex]

but i dont think the quality will be as good as on phone/pc will it?

[slate swan]

Thanks

[heady sluice]

bot.guilds shows all guilds

len(bot.guilds) shows how long the list is

[slate swan]

Ok thanks

[shrewd apex]

u want for members as well?

yeah thats the one

[heady sluice]

I don't like this

[slate swan]

they are different things

[maiden fable]

this returns the wrong number of users btw

[slate swan]

it will have duplicate members too

[maiden fable]

yes

[shrewd apex]

makes ur number looks better

who is checking anyway i just put it for presence

[heady sluice]

is this how you count in how many servers from the bot's ones a member is in

[slate swan]

just use set on it :0, len(set(Bot.get_all_member()))

[gaunt mortar]

Heyo, is it possible to get every slash commands registered in each cog ? (I would want to make an help command with commands packed per cog)

discord.py

[slate swan]

discord.py does not have cog-to-app-commands bindings

[heady sluice]

for cog in bot.cogs:
    for app_command in cog.application_commands:

When inheriting from this class, the options shown in [`CogMeta`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.CogMeta "discord.ext.commands.CogMeta") are equally valid here.

[shrewd apex]

its app_command

[stiff fern]

Confused on what the int argument is?

[heady sluice]

I remember getting all commands

but I'm two countries away from my computer

[heady sluice]

a whole ass token leaked

[shrewd apex]

lmao yeah

just saw

[stiff fern]

its fine its not like the bot doesnt anything lol

[potent spear]

you made a typo too
application_id

[stiff fern]

thank ya

[heady sluice]

reset your token in discord.com/developers

[shrewd apex]

it should be an error in the cog name general

[stiff fern]

o

ooh that makes more sense

I think there was something wrong with main other than the misspellin

[spring flax]

if I do asyncio.sleep on the bottom of this, will it, like ignore some reactions doing nothing? I don't want the overload the bot

@bot.listen()
async def on_reaction_add(reaction, user):

    """
    await reaction.message.edit(embed=e) 

[maiden fable]

no that is just gonna wait for x seconds before running that code again

[shrewd apex]

it pauses all work on the code in mean time

[spring flax]

yeah, in that process, will it ignore the reactions that happened while asleep, or will it wait for the duration and handle those missed reactions

[maiden fable]

but it will eventually run it

[maiden fable]

It won't ignore those afaik

[shrewd apex]

ignore

[maiden fable]

They would be ignored?

[shrewd apex]

yeah

[maiden fable]

My bad then, really sorry

[shrewd apex]

but if the user leaves a reaction like his name is there then there would be data like this user reacted and stuff in the reaction object

[spring flax]

also, when I restart the bot, that code doesn't work when i react

[shrewd apex]

but any event handler or reaction won't work

[shrewd apex]

yeah reactions aren't persistent u have to use buttons for that it will be easier

[maiden fable]

message not in the cache

[shrewd apex]

altho that can be done

u have to store the message id and fetch the message using that id

[spring flax]

wait what, why

[shrewd apex]

with fetching the message object u can get the reaction object replated to it too

[shrewd apex]

because buttons are new in 2.0 and there is an neat example for persistent button in dpy docs

[spring flax]

no i mean why doesn't the on_reaction_add get triggered after a bot restart

[shrewd apex]

u just have to have a custom Id and set timeout = none i believe for that

[shrewd apex]

an on_reaction_add() takes in an payload object

which is basically like the message object and checks if reactions are added

the payload or message object gets reset on bot restart

[spring flax]

what would be the ideal way to store the message ID, then

[shrewd apex]

a json

mostly if it's a small scale bot

[spring flax]

yep small

[shrewd apex]

yeah then json

[spring flax]

i will have multiple polls at once, would this affect?

[shrewd apex]

no

lemme give u pretty neat poll system using json see if i can find it first tho

[dense swallow]

if i want to hide certain cmds from help, i will have to do hidden=True in @lavish micamands.command() right?

[slate swan]

dont ping people randomly please

[dense swallow]

i didnt lol

[slate swan]

and yes

[dense swallow]

@commands.command

[dense swallow]

it was not working

[shrewd apex]

u can add a check

if command.hidden

[slate swan]

^^

[spring flax]

okay. thanks

[shrewd apex]

if hidden is true it will return a true else false

[dense swallow]

hm ok ill try that thanks

[slate swan]

Asher's smort

[slate swan]

don't use json.

[dense swallow]

also the longest error, remember, Asher?
i fixed it

[shrewd apex]

small scale bot

[shrewd apex]

oh yeah what was the reason?

[slate swan]

bad if the data is modified frequently

[spring flax]

yeah, there will just be 10 polls at specific times

[dense swallow]

did asyncio.run() in wrong place

[spring flax]

but I think I just have to store and fetch, not modify

[slate swan]

store reaction count too?

[spring flax]

nope

[shrewd apex]

yeah but 10 is not frequent i would say it's fine for most cases unless like json exceeds 1mb

[spring flax]

just the message ID

[slate swan]

oh well then

[spring flax]

i think

[slate swan]

nicetbh

[maiden fable]

then u gonna fetch the msg?

Getting an error for TypeError: unknown parameter given: Status

[slate swan]

what else do you think?

[stiff fern]

I dont know which status its talking about

[spring flax]

i guess what is what I need to do to make it work, yeah

[slate swan]

show traceback

[maiden fable]

better was to store the whole message payload but for some reason Danny didn't want to provide access to it 😔

[maiden fable]

Well, make sure u don't get ratelimited

[spring flax]

which part? fetching the message?

[slate swan]

Danny.....no comments about that man

[maiden fable]

yea

[spring flax]

oh wait, it would fetch the message each time. Yeah that's bad

what are alternatives do i have?

[stiff fern]

This?

[maiden fable]

Cuss Dandy on why tf does he not give access to the JSON Payload

[spring flax]

no like really lol

no other alternatives?

[shrewd apex]

https://github.com/DevStrikerTech/Discord.py-Bot-Series/blob/main/commands/poll.py

[maiden fable]

Lemme see

[shrewd apex]

u can just load it once

[maiden fable]

Gimme like 1 min

u using disnake or dpy?

[shrewd apex]

this one's pretty similar with what u are making

[spring flax]

disnake

[spring flax]

do you mind pointing to the exact line? the file is a bit long

[shrewd apex]

not each time just on startup

[shrewd apex]

the json part u can go thru it when u have time

[slate swan]

dandy

[maiden fable]

No way tbh

[maiden fable]

My bad, Danny*

[spring flax]

yeah I went through it briefly and didn't understand a thing. i'll look at it later

[shrewd apex]

ok

lmao ||dandy|| srsly

[spring flax]

okay so that github code uses a lot of json.
I'm not looking to entirely change my code, I just want to store and fetch the message in a single json

[maiden fable]

sorry

[shrewd apex]

nah lmao i was just finding it funny not offended in any way🤣

[shrewd apex]

so whenever a poll is being created put the message id in a json

[dull terrace]

This is a weird question, but if you have a function that's low priority is there a way to make it only take up a small amount of cpu and run slower

[maiden fable]

no

[dull terrace]

oh i could just do sleeps i guess

[shrewd apex]

small amount of cpu should be possible ig

[spring flax]

Okay - but I don't get how I only do this on start up

[shrewd apex]

u could check os lib on that not really sure

[shrewd apex]

in on_ready ig not really sure i haven't really ever tried persistent reactions on bot restart i have only used them in a bot wait for

[spring flax]

Actually I mean, I don't know how not to keep fetching the message

[shrewd apex]

just fetch it once on on ready

Ash would prolly know better on this than me

u can ask her

[lyric apex]

How to do this? Like i send a cmd help and edited the message to addemoji then the bot's message was also changed this follow as many time we edit it

[dull terrace]

"DELETE FROM submissions, likes WHERE link = ?" is this how you delete from two tables at once

[heady sluice]

ew

[slate swan]

don't think you can delete from multiple tables like that

[dull terrace]

😤

just gonna do it in two things to make it simpler

[shrewd apex]

where else can u do it? (asking srsly coz i never did b4)

[heady sluice]

well

well nowhere

[shrewd apex]

...

[heady sluice]

make a task that you only start once

[maiden fable]

just use asyncio.run before bot.run instead dude, if u r making a task with 1 count

[shrewd apex]

hmm yeah

[spring flax]

@maiden fable could you help with this?

[maiden fable]

^^^

[shrewd apex]

just as hunter said u just have to fetch the message object once u can do that before bot.run by creating an async function for those messages and running it using asyncio.run()

[spring flax]

Oh okay didn't know that was for me

[shrewd apex]

u could do it in on_ready also but it doesn't seem professional ig

[maiden fable]

I also didn't know I sent that for yr issue

[spring flax]

Yeah, api calls on the on_ready event aren't suggested

[shrewd apex]

btw if u are using bot.start u can just await the asynchronous function

[potent spear]

you're looking for a startup task I suppose?

[spring flax]

Yeah Im still confused what to do

[slate swan]

only bad thing is just sending duplicate request thats all really

[spring flax]

Maybe I'd be better off creating a help channel

[potent spear]

I'll look for a screenshot

[spring flax]

Thanks, basically what I want is the on_reaction_add to be triggered after a bot restart on each poll (there will be 10 polls happening simultaneously)

[potent spear]

this can be done when extending a botclass too... depends on when you want to run the startup task

[maiden fable]

won't work

u cannot access bot.loop anymore

[potent spear]

are we talking about v2 stuff?

since I'm on v1.7.3 without issues with this

[maiden fable]

In v2, yes

[potent spear]

v2 is just a setup hook...

[maiden fable]

I remember someone not being able to access it

[maiden fable]

They on disnake

[potent spear]

Ah, big F ig

[maiden fable]

And idk what changes disnake still has, from dpy

[shrewd apex]

u can do bot.loop ig i just did that day before yesterday

[slate swan]

cog_load exists for cogs, why not use it? 🙂

[maiden fable]

yea just realized u can do that in disnake sorry

[slate swan]

!d disnake.ext.commands.Cog.cog_load

[unkempt canyon]

disnake.ext.commands.Cog.cog\_load

await cog_load()```
A special method that is called as a task when the cog is added.

[shrewd apex]

well when u think of it properly there are prolly loads of ways u can do it

[spring flax]

Yeah other than making the loop, I just dont know what the loop func should have

[shrewd apex]

welp i am gonna dip

gn guys

[maiden fable]

night

[spring flax]

I know that I should put the message ID of each poll to json. But not sure what to do with it

[slate swan]

good nightttt

[slate swan]

Night Hunter, have a good sleep

[fringe island]

can discord bot own his storage ?

[sick birch]

whoa whoa whoa what's that above

[lyric apex]

Replit

[sick birch]

Can you post your full code?

Something's not right

[slate swan]

"discord bot has his own storage", uh?

[lyric apex]

.

[maiden fable]

...?

[sick birch]

Post full code and the entire traceback, not a picture of it

[slate swan]

sleep

in case you're using 2.0, bot = True is not required anymore

[sick birch]

I believe it wasn't required in 1.7 either

[lyric apex]

Yeah

[sick birch]

Yes but please post your entire code

[lyric apex]

Yep

[sick birch]

I'm not sure what the while True: await on_guild_channel_... stuff above it is

[slate swan]

actually the kwarg existed but it was not a required one, but now it doesn't exist at all

[sick birch]

but we need to get that fixed

[slate swan]

create a secret (env var)

!d discord.Client.run

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Client.run

run(*args, **kwargs)```
A blocking call that abstracts away the event loop initialisation from you.

If you want more control over the event loop then this function should not be used. Use [`start()`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.Client.start "discord.Client.start") coroutine or [`connect()`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.Client.connect "discord.Client.connect") + [`login()`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.Client.login "discord.Client.login").

Roughly Equivalent to:

```py
try:
    asyncio.run(self.start(*args, **kwargs))
except KeyboardInterrupt:
    return
```...

[sick birch]

Ah okay, that's pretty common where it exists but isn't required, removed in later updates. I believe it was the same deal for self bots

[slate swan]

bare except😔

[sick birch]

what is this name

[slate swan]

that was indeed used for self-boting

nice event

[slate swan]

what name

[maiden fable]

no thanks

[sick birch]

reported for impersonation of staff 🍋

[slate swan]

recursion

[slate swan]

😳

[spring flax]

is that a raiding thing?

[spring flax]

i mean nuke bot

[sick birch]

I'm not sure what the while True: await on_guild_channel_create(channel) is going to do except cause a recursion error

[slate swan]

Robin i added my real name is that ok

[slate swan]

no xd, it just triggers the event multiple times

[spring flax]

creating 500 "Spam Channels"

[lyric apex]

Someone

[sick birch]

This seems like it's against TOS

I uh, don't believe we can help you with this

[slate swan]

good

[sick birch]

That's good

[fringe island]

Can the Discord bot work offline?

[lyric apex]

What a good guy

[slate swan]

use on_message_update, and use await bot.process_commands(message) if there's a change in message.content, thats all

[sick birch]

if you need help with an actual bot, feel free to come again

[maiden fable]

No

[slate swan]

yes they can

[maiden fable]

Actually I agree

[fringe island]

why

[sick birch]

No, it needs access to the websocket

[slate swan]

just change the status 🧠

[sick birch]

And you need internet access to connect to the websocket, as obviously, it's over the web

[lyric apex]

Ah lemmie see that any docs?

[spring flax]

Robin, would it be a bother if I ask you to check #help-rice

[slate swan]

well, it can work offline technically

[slate swan]

^

[sick birch]

One moment, i'll check it out

[sick birch]

Probably not very useful however

[fringe island]

why it needs access to the websocket

[maiden fable]

It won't even be a discord bot anymore if it cannot even connect to Discord

[slate swan]

well yeah, overlooking the gateway feature, it still will work

[slate swan]

!f discord.on_message_update

[slate swan]

well yeah

[unkempt canyon]

You are not allowed to use that command here. Please use the #bot-commands channel instead.

[slate swan]

wait, what was the event

[lyric apex]

[slate swan]

!d discord.on_message_edit

[unkempt canyon]

discord.on\_message\_edit

discord.on_message_edit(before, after)```
Called when a [`Message`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.Message "discord.Message") receives an update event. If the message is not found in the internal message cache, then these events will not be called. Messages might not be in cache if the message is too old or the client is participating in high traffic guilds.

If this occurs increase the [`max_messages`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.Client "discord.Client") parameter or use the [`on_raw_message_edit()`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.on_raw_message_edit "discord.on_raw_message_edit") event instead.

The following non-exhaustive cases trigger this event...

[sick birch]

Discord's API works almost entirely off the websocket

[slate swan]

oh, 😔 its MessageUpdateEvent in hikari so uh lmao

[lyric apex]

@slate swan if i do this i have to check that if message author is client right?

[dull terrace]

would it be faster to:

for link, future_time in decay:
    if future_time <= time_stamp:
        try:
            for prompt_type, user_data in submissions.items():
                for id in user_data:
                    del submissions[prompt_type][id][link]
        except:
            pass
        await c.execute(delete_queries["submissions"], (link,))
        await c.execute(delete_queries["likes"], (link,))```
or rebuild everything after
```py
for link, future_time in decay:
    if future_time <= time_stamp:
        await c.execute(delete_queries["submissions"], (link,))
        await c.execute(delete_queries["likes"], (link,))

await c.execute("SELECT * FROM submissions")
for link, id, prompt_type, future_time in await c.fetchall():
    if id in submissions[prompt_type]:
        submissions[prompt_type][id][link] = []
    else:
        submissions[prompt_type][id] = {link: []}

await c.execute("SELECT * FROM likes")
for link, id, prompt_type in await c.fetchall():
    submissions[prompt_type][id][link].append(id)```

[maiden fable]

yes

[slate swan]

nope, you just gotta check if there's an change in message.content or not

[slate swan]

you mean the gateway

[maiden fable]

might use timeit to measure the time

or time.perf_counter

[dull terrace]

bit difficult without a ton of data

[lyric apex]

Ohk lemmie try , btw ty

[sick birch]

The gateway, yes. They also have a RESTful API, should've clarified

[fringe island]

The Internet is storage devices and cables connected between them, is this true? If Discord Bot has its own storage device, why does it need access to other devices (internet)

[slate swan]

🙂

[slate swan]

[slate swan]

not quite, the internet is like a tree of connections between the world in a sense

[lyric apex]

Oh god

[slate swan]

so much love in this channel right now, i love it

[lyric apex]

[sick birch]

I believe you're grossly misunderstanding how it works

[maiden fable]

can we take this to an ot channel?

[slate swan]

damn hunter doesnt like love😔

[sick birch]

The internet, in a very simplified manner, is a world wide connection of smaller networks, not wires and storage devices

[fringe island]

oh ok

[dull terrace]

actually from previous tests it's about 10x faster searching data and changing it rather than building dictionaries so ill go off of that

[slate swan]

wires and storage devices seem like a server

[fringe island]

i dont understand

[sick birch]

The internet can be quite difficult to get your head around. I've been studying networking for a while now and picked it as my chosen career and still don't understand it fully

[fringe island]

world wide connection of smaller networks.. isnt storage devices

[sick birch]

A storage device in itself is quite useless

A HDD, SSD, hybrid drives, etc

[slate swan]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UXsomnDkntI this is a good example it showed me allot💀

[sick birch]

Your home network, for instance, is a small network in and of itself

The home networks of everyone on this world together could be considered an "internet"

[slate swan]

nice

[fringe island]

so its small storage and world storage , right?

[sick birch]

A network is then composed of multiple hosts and intermediate devices, switches, hubs, hosts (computers, phones, laptops), routers, etc

[dull terrace]

the internet is just cables carrying a bunch of signals with some complicated switches in the middle

[sick birch]

Not really, storage devices are only part of a host

[sick birch]

We do have some cables (transatlantic cables, for instance), but more times than not you'll be contacting other devices wirelessly

[slate swan]

its not just some cables~

[sick birch]

And switches are part of an internal network (assuming we're talking about layer 2 switches)

You can assign a IP for maintenance on their VLAN port, other than that they operate exclusively off MAC addresses on layer 2

[fringe island]

Well, what does websocket have that no one else has like discord? Within all of this

[sick birch]

Websockets aren't exclusive to discord

You can build your own websocket client/server without much effort

[fringe island]

client/server not storage right?

[sick birch]

Client/server are both computers, yes

But not necessarily storage

[fringe island]

so discord dont have client/server

[slate swan]

websockets is like a phone you first have to call the person which is like a handshake and then you talk with them sorta like sending heartbeats so the conversation doesnt get all silent

[sick birch]

They do, most things do

[fringe island]

so why discord bot cant work offline

[sick birch]

Websockets are special because they're live, and discord tells you whenever there's an event (new message, new channel, etc)

[sick birch]

If you're offline, your computer can't connect to discord's servers

[fringe island]

ok

[slate swan]

because it needs a medium to send and receive data from/to the remote discord servers

[fringe island]

What does Discord Bot need on my device?

and i can't put it in his Discord for storage

If you're offline, your computer can't connect to discord's servers
why it need my computer , discord bot have one or more

[sick birch]

None, just a wrapper (which in itself you don't need), and obviously a programming language

[slate swan]

you don't save the discord bot in your storage? you just have a token which is like an API Key, you send requests to discord with that token as headers, like "hey, this is my bot's identity and i wanna do X operation"

[sick birch]

Yeah I believe you're also misunderstanding how a discord bot works, as it's not a file or folder that you can put on your computer

[fringe island]

So everything the bot needs can be transferred from my computer to its own computer, and it works in an offline state

[sick birch]

You need to tell Discord's server what you want your bot to do, for example you can tell it "hey, can you make my bot say X in channel Y? thanks"

[fringe island]

oh

[sick birch]

For this reason a storage device isn't even necessary to run a discord bot (serverless computing)

[slate swan]

and the file you save on your device, its just a way to communicate to the API using a programing langauge

[sick birch]

The actual code, yes

But don't mistake the code for being the actual discord bot

[fringe island]

(You need to tell Discord's server what you want your bot to do), Is it possible to set a programming to tell the discords server to do this automatically?

[sick birch]

That's exactly what your code is

[fringe island]

so no need to me to tell him and no need to me online

[sick birch]

When you do this for example:

await ctx.send("Hello, world!")

That's instructions for discord on what it should do to your bot

[sick birch]

You tell discord, not your bot

And when you save your .py file on your computer, that's a list of instructions on to tell discord

[fringe island]

Let's say one of the things I tell Discord to do is launch the bot

[sick birch]

Right

[fringe island]

Is it possible to put an automatic command for Discord somewhere that has it (launch the bot)

[sick birch]

That's what bot.run()/client.run() does

It's a command to start your bot

[slate swan]

its a method

[fringe island]

Can it be made temporary or automatically without my intervention?

[sick birch]

It is, but I don't want to confuse them more than I've already done

[slate swan]

lmao

[sick birch]

As long as they get the general concept now the details can come later

[maiden fable]

Robin is tryna make someone understand how Discord Bots work

[slate swan]

okay sire

[sick birch]

🤔 It's possible, similar to how when you turn on your computer certain apps will run by themselves

[tacit token]

how can i put this to role by ID?

        if payload.emoji.name=='Muted':
            role = discord.utils.get(guild.roles,name="Muted")
        if role is not None:
            member = discord.utils.find(lambda m : m.id == payload.user_id, guild.members)
            if member is not None:
                await member.add_roles(role)

So, i want to delete Muted and solve with Muted role id

[sick birch]

.get_role(id)? Unless I'm misunderstanding

[fringe island]

I replace myself and my device with another temporary or automatic code that is inside a discord server or somewhere there , is this make it will work offline? offline = without me and my device

😭 i try to understand , sorry

[sick birch]

Ah okay, I was misunderstanding what you meant by "offline". If you want your bot to run without you or your device, that's 100% possible

[tacit token]

and how can i use it in my code?

[sick birch]

Buy a VPS and put your code on it, and your bot will always be up regardless of if you have your device or not

[sick birch]

role = guild.get_role(id)

[tacit token]

oooo i so dumb!

[sick birch]

Returns the discord.Role object from ID

[tacit token]

ty sir!

[sick birch]

Also same deal for member, use guild.get_member(id)

[fringe island]

can i ask more thing

[maiden fable]

Don't ask to ask, this channel is for questions only

[fringe island]

and thanks for your time, and your care to teach me

[fringe island]

who say this , did he want people not learn anything?

[maiden fable]

Huh?

[fringe island]

discord have VPS ?

[maiden fable]

Nope

VPS is like an online computer which runs 24/7 and u gotta pay companies to rent those VPS out to u

[sick birch]

No, you need to get one yourself

[slate swan]

online computer?

[maiden fable]

That is the crux, yes

[digital mason]

How much time does it take to verify a bot ? I just submitted my id to Stripe but discord keeps saying this : We are unable to verify your identity because one or more of the documents you provided are invalid. Please try again.

[maiden fable]

Seems like an issue with ID Verification. Try clicking a clear pic

[alpine pewter]

Does anyone know how you'd be able to get a message ID from a message your bot sends?
Read it's something like this
edited = await channel.history() ...

[slate swan]

how do you even describe an online computer

[stiff gorge]

    @commands.command(name='time', pass_context=True)
    async def _time(self, ctx):
      now = datetime.datetime.now()
      current_time = now.strftime("%H:%M:%S")
      print("Current Time =", current_time)
      await ctx.send('Date is: **{0}**\nTime is: **{1}**'.format(time.strftime("%A, %B %d, %Y"), time.strftime("%H:%M:%S %M")))#("%I:%M:%S %p")))
      ind_time = datetime.datetime((timezone("Asia/Kolkata")).strftime('%H:%M:%S'))
      await ctx.send(f"IST: {ind_time}")

discord.ext.commands.errors.CommandInvokeError: Command raised an exception: AttributeError: 'Asia/Kolkata' object has no attribute 'strftime'

[maiden fable]

A computer which u access via an online panel?

I mean that is the easiest way to say it

[stiff gorge]

how to send ist time ?

[digital mason]

How much time does it take to verify if the id is clear

Is it instant

[maiden fable]

Instant

[digital mason]

So I have to keep trying ?

[maiden fable]

For more questions, they can help u better- https://discord.gg/discord-developers

[digital mason]

Thanks but Im happy here lol

[maiden fable]

Haha that is the official discord server and its basically made so that people can ask questions related to Bot Verification and other discord products, that is why I suggested it

[digital mason]

I know, but I might not be welcomed there

[stiff gorge]

?

[digital mason]

Could be like so

[maiden fable]

Everyone who has questions related to bot verification is welcome there

[digital mason]

It's asking me if im human

[tacit token]

how can i make a video fun with command? i have a white wall mp4 video, and if i write >hello asd the bot send one video with my white wall but write to the wall "asd"

@client.command()
async def hello(ctx,*,szoveg="hello"):
    clip = VideoFileClip("crab.mp4") 
    clip = clip.subclip(0, 5) 
    clip = clip.volumex(0.5) 
    txt_clip = TextClip(szoveg, fontsize = 75, color = 'green') 
    txt_clip = txt_clip.set_pos('bottom').set_duration(5) 
    video = CompositeVideoClip([clip, txt_clip]) 
    file = File(filename="crab.png")
    await ctx.send(file=file)

i try this with moviepy

[digital mason]

I went through the id part but now I have need a terms of service url

Does it have to be a link to a website or can it be a link to a file

[maiden fable]

website sadly

Ask in the server tho what to do

[digital mason]

I dont have a website

I had to leave it

Because they say in the rules dont put a link to your bot in bio so i will remove it now

[slate swan]

just create a website, what Hunter 😔

[digital mason]

Wait

[sick birch]

#media-processing

[digital mason]

My friend has vps where my bot is hosted

Might start a flask server that points to the terms of service

Would that be ok

Because I only have ip

[maiden fable]

Dude I am not good when it comes to websites

[digital mason]

Is this an official python discord

[maiden fable]

What is there to laugh...

[digital mason]

What you said about websites

[maiden fable]

She just said what Discord expects us to do, not a thing to laugh on if I or anyone else doesn't like it

[maiden fable]

U can still make websites in Python fyi

[digital mason]

I know and Im planning to use flask

I might even start the server when the bot starts

Like in repl

[maiden fable]

cool, so yea no need to laugh on anyone here, who knows u hurt whom

[digital mason]

I was just wondering if I could use an ip link instead of a domain

[sick birch]

Threading?

[slate swan]

plain html and css would work fine for the purpose

[sick birch]

plain CSS hyperventilating noises

[dapper stirrup]

from discord.ext import tasks

hey guys, what does it mean?)

[slate swan]

just host the website on replit or github (if static)?

[slate swan]

and

my bad

[maiden fable]

no one even reads the ToS and Privacy Policy before he/she gets into a situation

[sick birch]

Simple, really, imports the tasks extension

[dapper stirrup]

and what does tasks do?

this was my qua)

[sick birch]

Ahh, it's an extension to help dealing with interval based things easier, for example if you wanted to run a function every 2 minutes, you'd use the tasks extension

Sort of like background polling if that makes sense

[slate swan]

tasks are just asynchronous loops that do not block your code and are helpful in running things multiple times without your bot being blocked

[dapper stirrup]

uhh

oka thx

[slate swan]

for example

@tasks.loop(seconds=1) #ofc not gonna run it ever second
async def _():
  c = get_channel(...) or await fetch_channel(...)
  await c.send("uwu")

_.start()

await _[0]()

what have i done

[fringe island]

so , dose discord own a VPS ?

[slate swan]

NO

they have private servers

[maiden fable]

Haven't I already answered the question?

[sick birch]

They have their own servers

[slate swan]

hunter what do you think of this?

[sick birch]

Most likely from cloud service providers as having your own large scale datacenter is difficult

[fringe island]

So, the Discord program that we are using ..can work without VPS

[slate swan]

seems cursed so i will put it as my name

[slate swan]

yes.

[sick birch]

The discord program you are using right now is just a regular old application, like anything else on your computer

It communicates to discord's server via their user API, however

[slate swan]

aka a client

[sick birch]

Your bot does the same thing, except using the bot API

The discord API is more or less a way for bots to be able to use discord sort of like you are

[fringe island]

Very valuable information, I do not know how to thank you for your time and interest, and all those who shared the knowledge with me

[maiden fable]

I do agree that Robin is great at explaining things

[slate swan]

look who's saying that

[fringe island]

. I will make sure this information comes to fruition that would be a thank you

[maiden fable]

The one who says VPS is just an online computer

[sick birch]

No problem, feel free to ask anytime. I do love explaining how things work more than I like fixing problems

[slate swan]

I'll gladly ignore that opinion

[maiden fable]

either way, I ain't really as good as Robin when it comes to explaining stuff

[slate swan]

inarguable

[fringe island]

I know it's hard to explain how things work, because the listener, or the reader, doesn't have the same terminology, but I try as much as I can.

[maiden fable]

Nice

[slate swan]

looks like _ is a list/tuple of coros? or atleast the first element is

[slate swan]

that is so.

[slate swan]

not coros but function objects

[slate swan]

Imagine calling a string

[slate swan]

point of awaiting them?

it has either to be a coro, or return a coro

[slate swan]

its a function object until you call them which makes them a coro and then you await it

or am i wrong😅

[pliant gulch]

You are correct

[slate swan]

im using a decorator to make a list of decorated coros and then i index the list and i call them

[{identifier: functionobject}]

something like this

the underscore makes it look cursed.

its lovely

[maiden fable]

nice readiblity tho

[slate swan]

!e

from datetime import datetime as _
from datetime import timedelta as __

[slate swan]

ah

[maiden fable]

Ashley, just use __import__ and lambda and go to #esoteric-python for that code next time

[slate swan]

lmao

[magic pond]

https://paste.pythondiscord.com/mesujuheza

is this correct way ?

[chrome lance]

I need help

It keeps saying this and it keeps me from getting my bot online and it is so dam annoying

Like deadass, someone help me fix this stupid error. Nothing is wrong with my code this error happens out of nowhere ong

[sick birch]

Looks like you may be getting rate limited?

[chrome lance]

How would i be getting rate limited? any ideas?

[sick birch]

Hard to tell though, can you paste the entire thing into a pastebin?

[sick birch]

Well yeah, it's replit. Not much you can do as the service is pretty crappy tbh

[slate swan]

using replit is one of the reasons

[sick birch]

In this case the only reason

[chrome lance]

you guys got any other good coding softwares? with webserver support?

[sick birch]

Unless you're doing something in your code that's getting ratelimited which I doubt

[sick birch]

You're looking for a VPS, not an editor then

[slate swan]

i'll suggest writing the code on ur device, and deploying it later on a vps

[chrome lance]

alr

[slate swan]

try it?

[magic pond]

the cmnd works with prefix

but not with slash

[chrome lance]

so im guessing, if i were to get a vps synced with the replit service it would run off the vps and not replits service?

[slate swan]

global slash commands take upto an hour to get registered

[magic pond]

ok

[slate swan]

sure, i'll just used github integeration in that case
open the github repo in my repl,
code my stuff
test it
push it in the repo

and set my vps to automatically update with the triggers in the repo

[magic pond]

i had added a cmnd 2-3 days back but still not registered

[waxen python]

what library are you using?

[slate swan]

dear, please help me how to attach a link from a disk to a laptop?

        embed.set_image(url = )

!local-file

[unkempt canyon]

Thanks to discord.py, sending local files as embed images is simple. You have to create an instance of discord.File class:

# When you know the file exact path, you can pass it.
file = discord.File("/this/is/path/to/my/file.png", filename="file.png")

# When you have the file-like object, then you can pass this instead path.
with open("/this/is/path/to/my/file.png", "rb") as f:
    file = discord.File(f)

When using the file-like object, you have to open it in rb mode. Also, in this case, passing filename to it is not necessary.
Please note that filename can't contain underscores. This is a Discord limitation.

discord.Embed instances have a set_image method which can be used to set an attachment as an image:

embed = discord.Embed()
# Set other fields
embed.set_image(url="attachment://file.png")  # Filename here must be exactly same as attachment filename.

After this, you can send an embed with an attachment to Discord:

await channel.send(file=file, embed=embed)

This example uses discord.TextChannel for sending, but any instance of discord.abc.Messageable can be used for sending.

[slate swan]

in case you mean a local image

[main tide]

this is how i defined my buttons, how do i delete it after interaction?

    @discord.ui.button(label='Cancel', style=discord.ButtonStyle.red)
    async def Cancel(self, interaction: discord.Interaction, button: discord.ui.Button):
        await interaction.response.send_message('Profile Cancelled', ephemeral=True)
        self.can = True
        self.stop()

[alpine cove]

isnt there something like .clear_items

let me check

Resource: https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/interactions/api.html?highlight=items#discord.ui.View.clear_items

[slate swan]

        file = discord.File("C:/bot py/бан/clear.png", filename="file.png")

        embed.set_image(url = "attachment://file.png")

Please help me why is it throwing an error?🥺

[slate swan]

the file path you mentioned is wrong

[slate swan]

hmmm. how about specifying the path?

@bot.on("READY")
async def connect(payload: dict[str, "Any"]) -> None:
    print(payload)

what do you guys think?🤔

sarthak check the impl, pls

[slate swan]

go to that file and just copy the path from its properties

[slate swan]

this looks noice, but why raw payloads, you can make dataclasses for events

[slate swan]

i will soon

sounds good then

i have allot to do😔

[alpine cove]

yea i'll help ya:
first import os (at the top of the file):
import os
second get the current path:
path = f"{os.path.dirname(os.path.abspath(__name__))}/"
now lets get the image:

        file = discord.File(f"{path}бан/clear.png", filename="file.png")

        embed.set_image(url = "attachment://file.png")

this should work

assuming your folder structure:
C:/bot py/
-> бан
-> main.py
-> -> clear.png"

[slate swan]

        path = f"{os.path.dirname(os.path.abspath(__name__))}/"

        file = discord.File(f"{path}бан/clear.png", filename="file.png")

        embed.set_image(url = "attachment://file.png")

This program doesn't love me

show your work dir

[alpine cove]

yea that doesnt look right

have i got that correcly

i recommend not using absolute paths

you would check the path relatively

[slate swan]

I followed this path

This?

i said your work directory! e.g

├───Videos
    └───Captures

videos is a folder and captures is a subfolder!

that is called a directory!

i want to know where the photo is compared to your cog so i know its location and i can show you the relative path!

Hope. Just don't hit me

"../imageO/clear.png"

this should work

having all the media in your bot project's directory is always an better idea

oh, it is

or even better in the dir where you need them😳

[slate swan]

oh, where do you put it?

[slate swan]

well youre using it here no?

is should be Image0/my keyboard doesnt support that language/clear.png

        path = f"{os.path.dirname(os.path.abspath(__name__))}/"

        file = discord.File(f"{path}бан/clear.png", filename="file.png")

        embed.set_image(url = "attachment://file.png")

[slate swan]

"../imageO/бан/clear.png"

this is the correct one right?

i keep getting error messages

[slate swan]

image0 is already a top level package so no need to .. it

[fading marlin]

send the error

[slate swan]

does windows have a tree command in their cmd?

[slate swan]

right right mb, my brain is all over the place thank god a smart person like you is here

[slate swan]

yes

they could just use it and send their file structure here, quite easier to help then

[slate swan]

i was thinking about it but idk if they know about it

because that path totally depends on their bot.py

¯_(ツ)_/¯

[fading marlin]

in your bot constructor set help_command to none

[slate swan]

        path = f"{os.path.dirname(os.path.abspath(__name__))}/"

        file = discord.File(f"{path}../imageO/бан/clear.png", filename="file.png")

        embed.set_image(url = "attachment://file.png")

😭

remove the 2 periods

that was my fault

and dont add the path variable

no need for it

file = discord.File("/imageO/бан/clear.png", filename="file.png")

this is enough

need help

Hooray. it doesn't throw an error❤️

nice

[maiden apex]

this is working, tysm !

[slate swan]

It just doesn't show the picture.(((

need help with this code

[fading marlin]

roles

[slate swan]

thanks

[slate swan]

because you set the image not correctly

embed.set_image(file=file)

this should work

[fading marlin]

and you probably want to iterate through the member's role's instead of checking if they only have the 'perms' role

[slate swan]

help me pls

[warped mirage]

Guys I was told before that people can get ur bot counterfeited , it was quite a bit ago , can someone explain what they mean by that

[slate swan]

can role ids work?

also how do i add lots of it?

[fading marlin]

sure

[fading marlin]

wdym?

[slate swan]

can you show me how to add it?

[fading marlin]

add what?

[slate swan]

comparing a list to a string?

[slate swan]

can you show me how to add it?

[slate swan]

Python wants me to start crying

i recommend you check your path correctly

[fading marlin]

print out your cwd and start figuring out the path to your file from there

[fading marlin]

??

[slate swan]

I dont know how to add it

[slate swan]

a good way to do it is using the command tree in cmd

[fading marlin]

what do you want to add?

[slate swan]

that?

[fading marlin]

ctx.author.roles returns a list of the roles that the member has

[slate swan]

comparing an int to a string🤨

[fading marlin]

again, ctx.author.role isn't a thing

[slate swan]

how do you do roles id?

[slate swan]

So here's the way. He is correct🥺

i think you should check out docs (https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/stable/), youre giving poor lee a stroke😭

[slate swan]

#discord-bots message

how to do it

[fading marlin]

read the docs on Member.roles, and what you're trying to do is some basic list comprehension

[slate swan]

okay

[fading marlin]

!d discord.Member.roles here's the link

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Member.roles

property roles```
A [`list`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/stdtypes.html#list "(in Python v3.10)") of [`Role`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.Role "discord.Role") that the member belongs to. Note that the first element of this list is always the default [‘@everyone](mailto:'%40everyone)’ role.

These roles are sorted by their position in the role hierarchy.

[slate swan]

windows + r and then type in cmd and then type inside the console tree and you will see your computers directory

[latent spear]

[slate swan]

it takes a file argument, use it

what to enter. tell me please

[slate swan]

tree

[latent spear]

Thank u❤❤❤

[slate swan]

NOOOOO

that would just... spam his console

[fading marlin]

I'd recommend first changing to the directory where your bot file is, otherwise you're gonna get a whole lot of useless directories

[slate swan]

navigate to the bot's folder first

[slate swan]

💀 funny joke

[slate swan]

[slate swan]

#discord-bots message

:(

[slate swan]

@slate swan

just tell the person to find the parent folder and send the dir its easier to help😔

i'd just upload it to a cdn and use its url

So. he gave me a tree. Do I need to find the final clear.png file?

[slate swan]

yes find the parent directory where your whole bot is in and send the directory

python files

find the parent directory where your whole bot is in and send the directory

only the bot!

something from this

[slate swan]

no no, the folder named bot py

[gaunt mortar]

Good evening, does the function Cog.get_commands() provides the list of slash commands or only standard commands ?

[heady sluice]

standard only

[gaunt mortar]

By any chance, do you know if there is a way to gather a list of slash commands contained in a cog ?

[slate swan]

weird its named differently in dpy?

[heady sluice]

docs don't show it

but a pro programmer move is to get a Cog instance, write a dot and scroll through the attributes

[slate swan]

ah dpy doesnt have it

[heady sluice]

disnake does for sure

!d disnake.ext.commands.Cog.get_application_commands

[unkempt canyon]

disnake.ext.commands.Cog.get\_application\_commands

get_application_commands()```
Returns a list of application commands the cog has.

[gaunt mortar]

So I guess it would be possible to scroll in its attributes and check if its a slash command (by checking if it's an instance of ..) ?

[heady sluice]

no I meant maybe there's an undocumented thing

[slate swan]

i mean yeah something unique that specifies all methods that use slash commands and checking the class's attribute with dir is a good idea ig

[heady sluice]

what's the tree class called

[torn sail]

!d discord.app_commands.CommandTree

[unkempt canyon]

discord.app\_commands.CommandTree

class discord.app_commands.CommandTree(client, *, fallback_to_global=True)```
Represents a container that holds application command information.

[heady sluice]

thanks

!d discord.app_commands.CommandTree.get_commands

[unkempt canyon]

discord.app\_commands.CommandTree.get\_commands

get_commands(*, guild=None, type=None)```
Gets all application commands from the tree.

[heady sluice]

bot.tree.get_commands()

gets all, not just those from a cog

[gaunt mortar]

Yep, I already saw it and I think I'll just send every commands sorted per name, I'd love to sort them by cog and something with a dropdown menu but it seems.. tricky to find them per cog xD

[torn sail]

Would it be possible to do cog.__cog_app_commands__?

[heady sluice]

dunno, that's why we suggested dir

[slate swan]

@slate swanI checked a couple of times and couldn't find it. copied to vs clicked replace bot py. he did not find. or did i do something wrong?

discord.errors.NotFound: 404 Not Found (error code: 0): Interaction is unknown (you have already responded to the interaction or responding took too long) Possible solutions for this error?

I think its try: except discord.NotFound: something like this

how can I add multiple buttons?

async def command_dashboard(interaction: discord.Interaction,) -> None:
    embed = discord.Embed(

    view.add_item(discord.ui.Button(style = discord.ButtonStyle.url, url= "url", label="Twitter"))
    await interaction.response.send_message(embed=embed, view=view)```

[stone beacon]

The same way you added the first one

[slate swan]

just copy, paste?

[stone beacon]

View.add_item yea

[slate swan]

ah yea. I also copied view = disc... . thats the mistake

[bronze gyro]

Can anyone help me make a discord bot?

[elfin moon]

how do i send a message to a user with a given ID outside of a command in an async function? Right now I have this code but it doesn't work.

async def onVote(userid):
    def isUserAvailable():
        return userid not in farmusers

    condition = asyncio.Condition()
    await condition.wait_for(isUserAvailable)

    user = bot.get_user(int(userid))

    print(user)

    if user is not None:
        await user.send('Thanks for voting!')

The last line seems to be causing the error.

The error is Timeout context manager should be used inside a task

how do i pass in an arg in wait_for? also how do i loop it to constantly wait on smth else

[slate swan]

How can I pass an arg in a task?

[unkempt canyon]

Not in a million years.

No documentation found for the requested symbol.

[dull terrace]

you ever write like 100 lines of code and then realise everything you've written is completely unnecessary and delete it

[slate swan]

you can pass in the args to task.start

many times, but i dont delete it

[slate swan]

I need to find a channel with utils inside of the task

@slate swan How do I do it with a task?

just do it like you do normally?

[slate swan]

I use ctx.guild.channels but there is no ctx so I dont rlly get how else u do it

!d discord.Client.get_guild

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Client.get\_guild

get_guild(id, /)```
Returns a guild with the given ID.

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

[slate swan]

I want to use utils though

discord.utils.get(ctx.guild.channels, name="test")

@slate swan ?

[slate swan]

get the guild using this

why is everyone so dependent on ctx

[slate swan]

can I see an example?

guild = bot.get_guild(guild_id)?

thats all.

what if it's in more than one server

what do you want to do?

[slate swan]

just to get the id of a certain channel by name inside of a tasks.loop

anyone can help? does it look like im going somewhere with this? im trying to print the member list of my discord, no luck so far lol

# checks if discord activity is streaming, if true, assign LIVE role, if Flase, remove LIVE role
@loop(seconds=90)
@bot.event
async def set_live_role():
    members_list = discord.guild.members
    print(members_list)

    for member in members_list:
        if discord.ActivityType == "streaming":
            pass

[slate swan]

how do i make an embed look like this?

[boreal ravine]

1. Why are you using event and loop together? They don't work like that. event is for events sent from discord, you can't loop what you can't control
2. Why are you doing discord.guild.members? If you wanna get the members of a guild you'd need an instance of Guild.. doing what you did won't work
3. Why are you checking if a class is equal to a string?

[boreal ravine]

Which part?

[slate swan]

just all of it

looks clean

[pliant gulch]

That doesn't look like an embed, more so it's an ANSI codeblock

Well, the coloured stuff at least, the rest is a regular embed

[slate swan]

what so with a title and thats just the description?

[fresh ferry]

hey everyone,
how can one make the bot give a role once a if statement was detected ?

i have said bot removing roles when the user as used a banned word but needing help to find a solution to have it give a role once that original role was taken, for clarification its a quarantine role im trying to give to said user

[pliant gulch]

#discord-bots message check this message out for ANSI codeblocks

The description is the ANSI codeblock, yes

[slate swan]

ok thank you

[pliant gulch]

👍

Keep in mind, discord ANSI support is limited, you'll only have the basic colours and different styles but not all styles & colours

That should still be more than enough to make something good looking though

[slate swan]

• that looks cursed on mobile phones

[pliant gulch]

Mobile is bad anyways

[slate swan]

Are there are discord bots that can help with banning recent bot raids?

[lofty olive]

hey guys i have a question i always get this error:

from discord_slash import SlashCommand
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'discord_slash'

this is what the lines where the error is looks like:
from discord_slash import SlashCommand

i already tried several time
pip install discord-py-slash-command

[sick birch]

Make sure it's installing in the right version

Besides you don't really need it, since discord.py in itself has slash commands

[slate swan]

\u001b[40;38;2;255;255;0mHello

why wont it work?

[pliant gulch]

Because you didn't actually use the right character

You need to copy paste the character, the one you just sent only works when the bot does it from code
