discord-bots

[odd mango]

its excellent for tokens and stuff

[vale wing]

Like where would you store the database

[slate swan]

It's replit

[shrewd apex]

u know whats happening

SetuptoolsDeprecationWarning: setup.py install is deprecated. Use build and pip and other standards-based tools.

[shrewd apex]

u have 1gb

[vale wing]

Ignore this warning

[slate swan]

Replit feature

[narrow grail]

True. Replit is good for some little tests to not shutdown your complete bot

[odd mango]

or you can use any external db

[shrewd apex]

i ignore replit dosent

[vale wing]

Just make github actions + docker work together that works perfect

[slate swan]

So much work

[odd mango]

its saying to pip install ur stuff

[narrow grail]

but I also use a vps and it's better. Replit bans you for a certain time when u restart your bot very often

[odd mango]

what are you trying to install

[vale wing]

Yeah takes a while to figure out

[shrewd apex]

i did from requirements.txt

pip install -r requirements.txt

[odd mango]

pip install -r requirements.txt

yeah that

[maiden fable]

@shrewd apex

[odd mango]

whats in it

[maiden fable]

How did u fix this issue?

[shrewd apex]

yeah

oh lmao i found the correct encoding

and used that and have a few try except blocks

[vale wing]

Then you just make a workflow https://github.com/Exenifix/AIAS/blob/master/.github/workflows/runner.yml
and a docker file https://github.com/Exenifix/AIAS/blob/master/Dockerfile

ez

[maiden fable]

Nice the resource usage

Ah I think my error is fixed

encoding="utf-8" adding this in the open()

[shrewd apex]

yeah default is utf-8

remember to add everytime when writing

[odd mango]

how do i make a pass statement for buttons instead of ephemeral message

i just dont want this interaction failed stuff

[maiden fable]

Weird thing is it didn't work when I didn't specify

[paper sluice]

just make sure you catch the errors that might get raised

[maiden fable]

Nice

nltk does takes time

[odd mango]

there are no errors inside the code, just this interaction failed in discord

[paper sluice]

because the button might be timed out

so it wont respond

[odd mango]

nah i disable them on timeout

[paper sluice]

huh, do u have a callback for the button which fails?

[paper sluice]

ya :/

[odd mango]

    async def interaction_check(self, interaction):
        """Only allow the author that invoke the command to be able to use the interaction"""
        return interaction.user == self.ctx.author``` i use this for obvious reasons, so when author hits buttons its clean and cool.

but when someone who is not command author hits them, they see _this interaction failed_

[slate swan]

I really have 0 error handlers in My code

[maiden fable]

GG

[paper sluice]

because u are not responding to the interaction

u need to respond to it, other wise it will say that

[shrewd apex]

!paste

[unkempt canyon]

Pasting large amounts of code

If your code is too long to fit in a codeblock in discord, you can paste your code here:
https://paste.pythondiscord.com/

After pasting your code, save it by clicking the floppy disk icon in the top right, or by typing ctrl + S. After doing that, the URL should change. Copy the URL and post it here so others can see it.

[odd mango]

i know, i want it to pass when someone else hits them DUH

[shrewd apex]

https://paste.pythondiscord.com/ebelajitaj

someone plz

[odd mango]

i dont want them to see error message

[maiden fable]

Best of Luck trying to understand this

[odd mango]

remember me telling something about aiohttp and dpy? its that

[paper sluice]

i dont think u can do that, u will have to edit the message with the same contents

[slate swan]

U can't without doing anything on discord

[odd mango]

there are python git repos which do that, so there should be some way

no errors when someone else hits

[shrewd apex]

f i just remembered

[shrewd apex]

lmao

[odd mango]

yeah switch to requests

lol, this is why i got on pycharm

[maiden fable]

what's that

[slate swan]

Can u send link of 1 of them

[odd mango]

sure

https://github.com/Defxult/reactionmenu

[slate swan]

Alr

Let me check

[shrewd apex]

it seems aiohttp is not allowed in replit

[odd mango]

it is allowed, it just dosent work w dpy there

[maiden fable]

Huh? That wasn't the case last time I used it to host a bot

Same goes for when trying with dpy

[vale wing]

Just use dpy 2.0

[odd mango]

dosent work either

[odd mango]

need dpy LESS than 2.0

but dpy less than 2.0 is lame

[maiden fable]

@vale wing did u see this? 😛

[vale wing]

Dpy 2.0 requires aiohttp <= 2.8.0 and python-template requires aiohttp >= 2.8.1 what's not understandable with that

[maiden fable]

I agree

[slate swan]

Does anyone know this color's hex code https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/968145193847123968/984496762817503292/IMG_1293.png

[odd mango]

if you need it for embeds then that color is default

[slate swan]

No not that

🙄

[vale wing]

Ah yes I remember something like exception_info(type(e), e, e.__traceback__)

[maiden fable]

Yea that used to suck, but in 3.11 that is gonna change!

[odd mango]

no clue about hex codes then

[slate swan]

Its all good

[vale wing]

Lemme see rq

[slate swan]

Tnx

[vale wing]

@slate swan #303135

[slate swan]

Ty buddy

[stable spire]

How can I remove the slash commands from my bot? I removed them from my code but the bot still has the options

I am using discord.py and discord_slash

[vale wing]

I remember how I had the same issue and I ended up making raw requests to discord API 😔

[stable spire]

oh

[vale wing]

Why not use discord.py 2.0 or disnake or nextcord whatever that supports slash commands just not the discord_slash

[stable spire]

idk

[vale wing]

They are easier trust (dpy 2.0 is not)

[slate swan]

lmao

[stable spire]

I like dpy I started making a bot on it

[slate swan]

imagine hating dpy

[stable spire]

Its like 2k lines now

[vale wing]

Not hating, just stating

[vale wing]

Split it into cogs

[slate swan]

mutual feelings

[stable spire]

I hate cogs

[slate swan]

imagine hating something

[vale wing]

Cause you don't understand them?

Bad reason to hate something

[stable spire]

No I like messy code

[vale wing]

Sure

[slate swan]

I can't figure out sry

[odd mango]

oh its cool, even i bummed out

[slate swan]

#esoteric-python best for you

[stable spire]

ok

[narrow grail]

anyone know how to make a button which u can infinity click?

[slate swan]

U can infinitely click buttons

[maiden fable]

Anyone here used text2emotion module?

[narrow grail]

without getting interaction error

and the same response

[slate swan]

U mean without doing anything

[maiden fable]

can u print id_?

yea

[narrow grail]

without writing 50 lines of code what happens after every click if every click should do the same

[maiden fable]

yes

Can u send the ID here pls?

@slate swan

Thanks

So the user ID is correct

Do u have members intent?

[slate swan]

How to make discord bots with python ?!

[maiden fable]

!d discord

[unkempt canyon]

discord

Similar names: discordpy.discord, nextcord.discord

[maiden fable]

message intent != members intent

is yr bot verified?

Hm then u gotta write a ticket to discord and ask for permission

or use fetch_user and get ratelimited lol

hm?

Haha thanks

!d exec is what I used

[unkempt canyon]

exec

exec(object[, globals[, locals]])```
This function supports dynamic execution of Python code. *object* must be either a string or a code object. If it is a string, the string is parsed as a suite of Python statements which is then executed (unless a syntax error occurs). [1](https://docs.python.org/3/library/functions.html#id2) If it is a code object, it is simply executed. In all cases, the code that’s executed is expected to be valid as file input (see the section [File input](https://docs.python.org/3/reference/toplevel_components.html#file-input) in the Reference Manual). Be aware that the [`nonlocal`](https://docs.python.org/3/reference/simple_stmts.html#nonlocal), [`yield`](https://docs.python.org/3/reference/simple_stmts.html#yield), and [`return`](https://docs.python.org/3/reference/simple_stmts.html#return) statements may not be used outside of function definitions even within the context of code passed to the [`exec()`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/functions.html#exec "exec") function. The return value is `None`.

Similar names: 2to3fixer.exec

[maiden fable]

!d contextlib.redirect_stdout

[unkempt canyon]

contextlib.redirect\_stdout

contextlib.redirect_stdout(new_target)```
Context manager for temporarily redirecting [`sys.stdout`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/sys.html#sys.stdout "sys.stdout") to another file or file-like object.

This tool adds flexibility to existing functions or classes whose output is hardwired to stdout.

For example, the output of [`help()`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/functions.html#help "help") normally is sent to *sys.stdout*. You can capture that output in a string by redirecting the output to an [`io.StringIO`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/io.html#io.StringIO "io.StringIO") object. The replacement stream is returned from the `__enter__` method and so is available as the target of the [`with`](https://docs.python.org/3/reference/compound_stmts.html#with) statement:

```py
with redirect_stdout(io.StringIO()) as f:
    help(pow)
s = f.getvalue()
```  To send the output of [`help()`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/functions.html#help "help") to a file on disk, redirect the output to a regular file...

[maiden fable]

Ah well I have access to Message Intents, soooo

[slate swan]

!d nextcord.discord is a thing..?

[unkempt canyon]

nextcord.discord

To work with the library and the Discord API in general, we must first create a Discord Bot account.

Creating a Bot account is a pretty straightforward process.

[swift pumice]

async def delete(ctx):
    await ctx( delay=None)
``` i want it that it auto deletes messages

can you guys help me?

[quaint epoch]

what?

[quaint epoch]

what do you mean?

await ctx.message.delete() ez

[swift pumice]

thanks

[maiden fable]

Nice, Nakime should think of getting a job soon or start depositing money

[analog parrot]

does anyone know the six errors

[paper sluice]

#algos-and-data-structs

[swift pumice]

async def delete(ctx):
     await ctx.message.delete()``` @quaint epoch still doesnt work

[quaint epoch]

what error does it raise

[swift pumice]

like i mean if i type !delete that it automatticly deletes messages

[swift pumice]

it has no error

[quaint epoch]

oh i know

[maiden fable]

Seems like more of a db issue ig

[quaint epoch]

@bot.command()
async def delete(ctx, messages:int=10):
  await ctx.message.delete(messages+1)```

there you go

[swift pumice]

thank youuuu

[maiden fable]

then a JSON issue

[quaint epoch]

it is such a nice day outside, i should go for a walk

[maiden fable]

Nice cya!

[slate swan]

Wtf

[maiden fable]

so is disnake.discord and discordpy.discord

[slate swan]

Wow

[maiden fable]

Weird

Nice

[slate swan]

Bruh

[maiden fable]

use an if statement to check if money < 0

[frozen patio]

Ptero good

Anyways

How can I fix this it should have worked

[swift pumice]

sry but i wanted to ask what do i have to write because if i write in my server where my bot is nothing happens

[maiden fable]

Before someone can withdraw, make sure the remainder won't be less than 0 ig?

[slate swan]

It's not a coro

[maiden fable]

Yea

[swift pumice]

can someone help?

[maiden fable]

that should work... do u have an error handler?

[slate swan]

!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.

[maiden fable]

😐

I uh

[frozen patio]

I am using nextcord

[maiden fable]

remove the await

Hi there Snoggy!

[swift pumice]

yes, but it just doesnt show an error yk

[stone beacon]

Heyy

[frozen patio]

I did

[maiden fable]

show the error handler

[frozen patio]

Then get an attribute error

[swift pumice]

i wanted to ask like what do i have to type in the chat?

[swift pumice]

how

[slate swan]

Code and error

[maiden fable]

show the code

[swift pumice]

ok 1 sec

[maiden fable]

of the error handler

[swift pumice]

there is no error

[frozen patio]

@slate swan I fixed

Change get_channel -> fetch_channel

[maiden fable]

do u have an on_command_error?

[slate swan]

Nice

[paper sluice]

delay is a kwonly arg

[swift pumice]

no theres litterly no error

[maiden fable]

((output += f"{t} ") for t in text if t.parent.name not in self.element_blacklist) anyone has any idea how can I get smth like this to work?

[paper sluice]

!d discord.Message.delete

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Message.delete

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

Deletes the message.

Your own messages could be deleted without any proper permissions. However to delete other people’s messages, you need the [`manage_messages`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.Permissions.manage_messages "discord.Permissions.manage_messages") permission.

Changed in version 1.1: Added the new `delay` keyword-only parameter.

[maiden fable]

Ah u r looking for purge

[paper sluice]

maybe, i was very confused why they named delay message

[maiden fable]

Ryuga, any idea?

[swift pumice]

so idk

[swift pumice]

i dont understand

[paper sluice]

output := output + f'{t} '

[maiden fable]

change it to await ctx.purge(limit=messages+1)

[swift pumice]

okay

[maiden fable]

???

        for t in text:
            if t.parent.name not in self.element_blacklist:
                output += f"{t} "

Wanna change this to a list comp

[paper sluice]

change += to := with that adjustment

[maiden fable]

(output is already defined)

[paper sluice]

doesn't matter

!e

a = 10
[(a := a + 1) for _ in range(3)]
print(a)

[unkempt canyon]

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

13

[maiden fable]

Oh cool thanks!

[shrewd apex]

walrus operator...

btw is it fine if i host my discord bot on my rpi?

[paper sluice]

ya

[maiden fable]

Damn u got one?!

[shrewd apex]

it's 3b+ model would there be decent performance?

[shrewd apex]

2

[maiden fable]

Niceee

[paper sluice]

a discord bot is not very heavy as long as you have good internet it should work just fine 😄

[shrewd apex]

cool thx

[swift pumice]

async def on_message(message):
    if (message.content == "!test"):
        await message.delete()
``` hey guys how do i make that my bot deletes more than only 1 message

like it only deletes the !test message

[slate swan]

Commands exist

;-;

[swift pumice]

what do you mean sry im new to python

[paper sluice]

because you have if (message.content == "!test"):

do u know what if is?

[swift pumice]

yes i do

[swift pumice]

so what do i type instead of if?

[paper sluice]

then why do you look suprised?

[slate swan]

U can do ```py
@bot.command()
async def test(ctx, arg):
pass

[swift pumice]

im sorry

[swift pumice]

what

i dont clearly understand, why would i put now instead of event command

[paper sluice]

no need to be sorry...

[glad lagoon]

Is this outdated at all: https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/stable/api.html#messageable

Cause messages = await channel.history(limit=2).flatten() doesn't work

I just get AttributeError: 'async_generator' object has no attribute 'flatten'

[paper sluice]

ya flatten got removed iirc

[glad lagoon]

hmm

Okay so what would be the best way of getting the last 2 messages sent?

Eg i want to get

message 1
message 2

When message 2 is sent

I tried this but message.content is just always blank for some reason

[swift pumice]

so i need to delete my whole code and paste yours in right?

@paper sluice can you maybe help me?

[glad lagoon]

I gotta go eat lunch and go to band class. Please ping me if you respond so i can find your message

[karmic marsh]

alright, can confirm I know nothing

I need some help doing this

and I don't know what 'this' is

[paper sluice]

what do u want to do?

[karmic marsh]

this code does not work:

class Ask(commands.Cog):

    def __init__(self, bot):
        self.bot = bot

    @commands.command()
    async def ask(inter):
        """Asks the user a question to confirm something."""
        # We create the view and assign it to a variable so we can wait for it later.
        view = Confirm()
        await inter.response.send("Do you want to continue?", view=view)
        # Wait for the View to stop listening for input...
        await view.wait()
        if view.value is None:
            print("Timed out...")
        elif view.value:
            print("Confirmed...")
        else:
            print("Cancelled...")


def setup(bot):
    bot.add_cog(Ask(bot))

it doesn't stop the bot from loading but it cashes when run

this is basically just the example of buttons adapted to be a cog

but clearly it doesn't quite work

the error I get is

disnake.errors.ClientException: Callback for ask command is missing "ctx" parameter.

[swift pumice]

i want that my code @bot.event async def on_message(message): if (message.content == "!delete"): await message.delete() deletetes more than 1 msg. so like if i type !delete 10 that it deletes 10 msgs. my problem is rn that it will only delete the msg !delete

[karmic marsh]

can anybody tell me what I'm doing wrong?

[paper sluice]

use a command as spakry suggested and use ctx.channel.purge(limit=...)

[karmic marsh]

yo okay I got it

async def ask(inter, ctx: commands.Context):

and

await ctx.send("Do you want to continue?", view=view)

[swift pumice]

where would i paste it?

[quaint epoch]

whoops, had a seizure

dagnabit, those damn seizures

[paper sluice]

you will have to write it, we wont just write it for you

[paper sluice]

👀 👀

[swift pumice]

okay.

[paper sluice]

brad u here?? 👀

[slate swan]

you need message content intents

[gaunt mortar]

Hi guys, I got a strange issue with my Discord bot..
I was testing it on my PC in local and everything was fine

I'm now trying to make it run on my VPS (which is using Ubuntu, not Windows dunno if that makes a difference)
For a reason that I can't figure out, it seems like cogs are not loaded when I'm running the bot, I'm wondering if someone heres has an idea of what causes the problem and eventually, how to fix it ?

[velvet compass]

Do you need me to be?

[paper sluice]

yes i knew you would respond, what is the max emojis u can send in one msg?

[velvet compass]

Hmmmm

I'm not sure if that is something that should be publicly disclosed tbh

[maiden fable]

nice, brad lurking

Time to join with my alt and test

[velvet compass]

A good rule of thumb might be to keep it under double digits

[paper sluice]

ah ok, prefect then 😄

[karmic marsh]

could somebody show an example of a button in a modal?

I can't seem to figure it out

[spring flax]

dpy?

[karmic marsh]

disnake

[spring flax]

does discord even support that?

[karmic marsh]

uhh

I have no clue

[spring flax]

i know that select menus in modals are supported, but i'm not sure about buttons

[karmic marsh]

I thought so, but I might just be crazy

I've gotten selection menus working

so allow me to rephrase my question:

does anybody know whether it's possible to put a button in a modal?

[sick birch]

Not as of now I believe, they’re quite limited

[karmic marsh]

ah, alright

what elements do modals support then?

[winged orchid]

Nothing much really just text inputs think of it as a limited google form in discord

[sick birch]

Text fields, selects as mentioned I believe

[karmic marsh]

are those the only two?

[winged orchid]

Yes

[karmic marsh]

it appears to implement disnake.ui.WrappedComponent

which includes buttons

of course, the facts are against me on this one:

The specified component type is invalid in this context

[slate swan]

        try:
            mute = discord.utils.get(ctx.message.guild.roles, name ="Мут")
            await ctx.channel.purge(limit = 1)
            await member.add_roles(mute)
            
            if time > 0:
                if time1 == ["m", "M", "м", "М"]:
                    timeS = time * 60
                    time2 = 60
                if time1 == ["h", "H", "ч", "Ч"]:
                    timeS = time * 3600
                    time2 = 3600
                if time1 == ["d", "D", "д", "Д"]:
                    timeS = time * 86400
                    time2 = 86400
            else:
                time = 'До разбирательств'

            if time > 0:
                await asyncio.sleep(timeS)
                await member.remove_roles(mute)

        except discord.Forbidden:   return

Dear please tell me how to fix the error?

[stable leaf]

i want to make a slash commands but when i do pip install discord-py-slash-command and try from discord_slals import ___ it doesn't find any discord_slash

[gaunt mortar]

is not defined in the case where time < 0, so the "asyncio.sleep(timeS) can't work

[vale wing]

Do pip install disnake and make slash commands with it

[stable leaf]

does it work the same?

[gaunt mortar]

Or just use discord-py which also supports slash commands 👀

[vale wing]

!pypi disnake

[unkempt canyon]

disnake v2.5.1

A Python wrapper for the Discord API

[vale wing]

2.0*

[stable leaf]

i have discord.py 2.0

[vale wing]

And have fun figuring out all that tree syncing stuff they have put in

Not discord bots related question

You probably need #web-development

[gaunt mortar]

I'm trying to add my slash commands to each guild my bot joined, but self.guilds (in a subclass of commands.Bot) is returning an empty list instead of a list that contains 2 servers, does someone know why am I getting this result? The full command :

    async def setup_hook(self) -> None:
        for guild in self.guilds:
            for ext in self.initial_extensions:
                await self.load_extension(ext)
            await self.tree.sync(guild=discord.Object(id=guild.id))

[vale wing]

Afaik at the moment when setup_hook is called bot is not connected to discord yet so it can't access the guilds data (not completely sure about it tho)

[gaunt mortar]

I think so, I don't have issues accessing it later

[odd mango]

whats the advantage of using default discord.py bot help command over rather disabling it and manually making one?

[vale wing]

None

[odd mango]

whAT

[vale wing]

If I got you correctly there's no advantage

[gaunt mortar]

Except not having to do it yourself, there are no advantages

[odd mango]

bro istg, i just removed my custom 200 lines one, and wrote 100 more lines to modify default one for no reason??

😭

[vale wing]

What

If you subclassed the HelpCommand you did the right thing

[odd mango]

yeah

i am asking whats the advantage of subclassing over removing help command

[vale wing]

I wouldn't really call it "modifying the default one", it is custom

[vale wing]

You don't need to do unnecessary stuff with subclassing unlike with using a function

[stable leaf]

is there inbuild slash commands in discord.py 2.0?

[vale wing]

Yes

[stable leaf]

how?

[odd mango]

just that? no default error handling and stuff?

[stable leaf]

how to import it?

[fading marlin]

import app_commands from discord

[stable leaf]

thx

[stable leaf]

do u also know how to use them?

[fading marlin]

somewhat, yeah, they're kinda similar to normal prefix commands

[stable leaf]

can u send a link?

[fading marlin]

if you want an example: https://github.com/Rapptz/discord.py/blob/master/examples/app_commands/basic.py
if you want the docs: https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/interactions/api.html#appcommand

[stable leaf]

thx

[spring flax]

isn't it from discord import app_commands

[fading marlin]

yes

but I wasn't showing code, I was just telling him from where to import it

[odd mango]

how do i access help <category> in subclassed help command

its just plain text, i wanna go embed it and stuff

[fading marlin]

send_cog_help iirc

[odd mango]

not using cogs

just classes

[fading marlin]

isn't help <category> just help <cog> though?

[odd mango]

i mean this thing

@client.event
async def on_ready():

Cogs are loaded but commands are not working when used, am I synchronizing it in a wrong way?

[fading marlin]

help <command> then?

[odd mango]

yeah

[fading marlin]

don't do anything in on_ready, use setup_hook

[odd mango]

command, my bad

sorry but i still don't understand how it works

maybe i am dumb

!d discord.ext.commands.HelpCommand.send_command_help

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ext.commands.HelpCommand.send\_command\_help

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

Handles the implementation of the single command page in the help command.

It should be noted that this method does not return anything – rather the actual message sending should be done inside this method. Well behaved subclasses should use [`get_destination()`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.HelpCommand.get_destination "discord.ext.commands.HelpCommand.get_destination") to know where to send, as this is a customisation point for other users.

You can override this method to customise the behaviour.

Note

You can access the invocation context with [`HelpCommand.context`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.HelpCommand.context "discord.ext.commands.HelpCommand.context").

[fading marlin]

could you be a bit more specific in what you don't understand?

[gaunt mortar]

You can't access to client.guilds in the setup_hook so how can I can sync the tree for each guild? :/

[stable leaf]

i only understand how to import it

[fading marlin]

sync manually (prefix command maybe), it's not recommended to sync when your bot starts up for multiple reasons

[odd mango]

any examples?

[fading marlin]

https://gist.github.com/Rapptz/c4324f17a80c94776832430007ad40e6 maybe try reading this? it's a bit outdated, and some stuff has changed, but it explains most stuff fairly well

[fading marlin]

if my memory is correct, it should be something like this

async def send_command_help(self, command: commands.Command):
  #  do something
  await super().get_destination().send(...)

I'm guessing there should be an example in some gist somewhere

[odd mango]

def send_command_help(self, command):
        embed = self.embed_description(command.help, command)
        embed.set_author(name=self.get_command_signature(command))
        if command.aliases:
            embed.add_field(name="Aliases", value=", ".join(command.aliases))
        await self.send_embed(embed) ```

oh

[gaunt mortar]

Any chance you know what the doc means by "guild (Optional[Snowflake]) – The guild to sync the commands to. If None then it syncs all global commands instead."
What is a "global command" ?

[stable leaf]

i think i got it now thx

[fading marlin]

instead of syncing to a specific guild, it syncs globally

[gaunt mortar]

Would work until I need commands for specific guild..
You mentionned I should not sync in "on_ready" event, is the same for things like game status or so ? I was doing it in this before

[fading marlin]

yeah, you shouldn't generally do any API calls in on_ready, best if you just don't use it

[odd mango]

where do i add that at

[fading marlin]

inside your HelpCommand subclass

[gaunt mortar]

Good to know, thanks a lot

[fading marlin]

If you just import it it won't work

[fading marlin]

well yeah, that's what this is doing await channel.send(file=discord.File("pimg.jpg"))

[warped mirage]

how can i fix this

[fading marlin]

add the content that you want to send to the send function..?

[vale wing]

I know a tutorial for a fork

Depends what library you use, most likely gonna be suitable unless it is dpy 2.0

[glad lagoon]

?

@placid talon if this helps https://tutorial.vcokltfre.dev/tutorial/intermediate/disnake/11-cogs/

[warped mirage]

send the image with the text , its a font i added

[vale wing]

Damn I really need to continue working on my tutorial

@warped mirage and what the problem with your command is?

The image gets generated but doesn't get sent

[warped mirage]

just sends the image

[vale wing]

And what is expected output

[warped mirage]

send a text with the font i added

[vale wing]

On the image right?

[warped mirage]

yes

[vale wing]

So basically it doesn't add text to your base image

[warped mirage]

yes

[vale wing]

@warped mirage ok let's go to #ot0-psvm’s-eternal-disapproval cause this is kinda not discord bots related

[warped mirage]

ok

[livid hinge]

you guys think cogs are worth it right

got someone complaining it made it more complicated .. but i think it makes it way easier to work on

[remote stratus]

!d discord.ext.commands.Cog

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ext.commands.Cog

class discord.ext.commands.Cog(*args, **kwargs)```
The base class that all cogs must inherit from.

[remote stratus]

Interesting

[livid hinge]

if you're not using cogs you basically put everything in the same file?

[fading marlin]

they haven't spent enough time with dpy then

[fading marlin]

everything that's a command, yeah

you can still have helper functions and whatnot in other files ofc

[remote stratus]

I think so. Cogs -> separate files

Oh not talking to me.....😅

[livid hinge]

i like having a few small files with a couple added lines vs one big long file

[remote stratus]

mAh bad for jumping in convo

[livid hinge]

no you answerd me, thx

[remote stratus]

Aight aight

[odd mango]

!paste

[livid hinge]

ive got a semi relayted question

[odd mango]

okay @fading marlin, this is the whole thing https://paste.pythondiscord.com/yimitojome

[livid hinge]

i have a bot that is set up to reload cogs when it changes

[fading marlin]

class MyHelp(commands.MinimalHelpCommand):
    ...

here's where you want to add the function I told you about

[odd mango]

cool! tyy

[livid hinge]

but it seems to not work if theres too many reloads, like more than a couple . anyone else done that

[fading marlin]

when you change the code, it automatically reloads?

[livid hinge]

the cog loads but no on ready event is the failure mode

[livid hinge]

yeah

[fading marlin]

that's so cool

[fading marlin]

on_ready only dispatches when the bot is ready, not when the cog is loaded

[livid hinge]

if i make a small enough change it works beautifully haha

[fading marlin]

you're probably looking for something like cog_load (which you add inside your cog subclass)

[livid hinge]

oh maybe its the whole bot that gets reloaded

[remote stratus]

This is what I thought of as well.

[fading marlin]

you haven't defined anywhere in your subclass what embed_description should be, nor does MinimalHelpCommand have such a method

[livid hinge]

!d discord.ext.commands.Bot.reload_extension is what im using

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ext.commands.Bot.reload\_extension

await reload_extension(name, *, package=None)```
Atomically reloads an extension.

This replaces the extension with the same extension, only refreshed. This is equivalent to a [`unload_extension()`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.Bot.unload_extension "discord.ext.commands.Bot.unload_extension") followed by a [`load_extension()`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.Bot.load_extension "discord.ext.commands.Bot.load_extension") except done in an atomic way. That is, if an operation fails mid-reload then the bot will roll-back to the prior working state.

[livid hinge]

now i think i see what ive screwed up .. i was calling unload first

[odd mango]

so what do i need to do uh

[fading marlin]

yah, on_ready only gets called once your bot boots up, it doesn't get called if you're reloading cogs

[fading marlin]

define embed_description...?

[livid hinge]

is there a case where the on_ready gets called again ?

like if you lose your connection or something

[fading marlin]

pretty sure if you loose connection and it reconnects it calls it again

[odd mango]

not sure how, this is my first time subclassing stuff

[livid hinge]

ok thats what it seemed like, just wanted to check if im doing smth weird

[fading marlin]

though if you wanna call the event once your cog gets reloaded you would have to do something like this

class Cog(commands.Cog):
    ...
    def cog_load(self):
        self.bot.dispatch("event")

[livid hinge]

i used watchdog for file monitoring and its pretty kludgy the way i have it lol

[fading marlin]

as a side note, you should generally not do much with on_ready (specially when it comes to API requests), since it gets called a lot and at random times

[scarlet aurora]

Why does this error?

[fading marlin]

what's your thought process? what's self.embed_description supposed to do? Also, dpy has a lot of OOP, so you shouldn't be doing much with dpy if you don't know much about subclassing

[fading marlin]

what's the error?

[scarlet aurora]

company errors

[fading marlin]

?

[fading marlin]

oh

all args after a default should have defaults too

[scarlet aurora]

so company = None

[vale wing]

Why even make user arg optional

[fading marlin]

yeah

[odd mango]

got it, thanks a lot

class MyHelp(commands.MinimalHelpCommand):
    async def send_command_help(self, command):
        embed = discord.Embed(title=self.get_command_signature(command))
        embed.add_field(name="Help", value=command.help)
        alias = command.aliases
        if alias:
            embed.add_field(name="Aliases", value=", ".join(alias), inline=False)

        channel = self.get_destination()
        await channel.send(embed=embed)```

[livid hinge]

if i had just read the doc for that function months ago it could have worked nicely this whole time haha 🤣

[fading marlin]

[livid hinge]

oh thats good to know .. hmm

where should it be done ? in a cog_load ?

[fading marlin]

if you're on 2.0, I'd recommend setup_hook

[livid hinge]

im not, still using the older one

[fading marlin]

then probably like a helper function of some sorts, and if you need your bot to be logged in before calling it, use bot.wait_until_ready() inside the function

[livid hinge]

the reason im still using the old one was i was getting some message seems like about load_extension that i couldnt figure out

maybe i'll try it again

[fading marlin]

on 2.0 everything cog-loading-related is async, so you'd go from

bot.load_extension(...)
def setup(bot: commands.Bot): 
    bot.add_cog(...(bot))

to

await bot.load_extension(...)
async def setup(bot):
    await bot.add_cog(...(bot))

[livid hinge]

i think i didnt have a setup_hook

oh ok yeah add_cog i think might have been part of it

[fading marlin]

setup_hook is just an event that allows you to do async stuff without worrying too much about ratelimits (unlike on_ready)

[livid hinge]

so if i do

class Bot(Bot)
  ...
  async def setup_hook(self):
    await self.load_extension("ext")``` thats a good way to do it ?

[fading marlin]

yep

[livid hinge]

what makes it so you dont need to worry much about rate limits in the setup_hook in particular

[fading marlin]

it doesn't get called a bunch of times and randomly when your bot starts

not really sure how it internally works, but that's what it's supposed to do ig

[scarlet aurora]

                await user.remove_roles(roles)
                await user.add_roles(Chaplain)```Is there faster way

To do this?

[fading marlin]

yikes

you could do data.append(discord.utils.get(...)) instead, and maybe iterate through the roles ```py
for role_name in ("Honor Guard", "Catulan Reaver", ...):
data.append(discord.utils.get(..., name=role_name))

not really sure how fast it would get, but it'd be much more clean than before lol

[sick birch]

yes

exactly like Lee said

A list comp might be even better

[livid hinge]

thanks 👍

[fading marlin]

[livid hinge]

99% sure i am doing way too much in on_ready

[sick birch]

role_names = (
  ...
)

data = [discord.utils.get(..., name=role_name) for role_name in role_names]
# OR
data = map(lambda role_name: discord.utils.get(..., name=role_name), role_names)

[sick birch]

I believe that happens before it even connects to the websocket

[livid hinge]

oh gotcha

then i will not try to make api calls there lol

[slate swan]

you can always overwrite the function or just make a task

[vale wing]

The amount of iterations would be (amount_of_role_names * amount_of_roles) idk what complexity the _contains_ of a list has but I think it will be better to do this

for role in guild.roles:
    if role.name in roles_names:
        data.append(role)```

[livid hinge]

a task would make sense prob

[vale wing]

Comprehensed py data = [r for r in guild.roles if r.name in roles_names]

[livid hinge]

its just some house keeping stuff with roles

[slate swan]

you can just access the internal loop attribute from the Bot class, thats literal to a AbstractEventLoop

[livid hinge]

oop that list doc still missing ig

ok cool

.loop?

[slate swan]

Bot.loop

[livid hinge]

so self.bot.loop or self.loop depending where

[slate swan]

if self is a subclass of the Bot class yes, if self.bot is literal to a Bot class instance yes

[livid hinge]

didnt realize it was that easy to get the event loop

i get to delete some code 😎

[slate swan]

https://github.com/Rapptz/discord.py/blob/master/discord/client.py#L209

[unkempt canyon]

discord/client.py line 209

self.loop: asyncio.AbstractEventLoop = _loop```

[slate swan]

which the private loop is literal to https://github.com/Rapptz/discord.py/blob/be6db2025580fd9e6298e5ad2bc0b93919f6c6a9/discord/client.py#L101

[unkempt canyon]

discord/client.py line 101

class _LoopSentinel:```

[scarlet aurora]

but now I wont have individual roles as a variable

how can I refer back to the roles?

        if company == '1st':
            for roles in data:
                await user.remove_roles(roles)
                await user.add_roles('Honor Guard')``` Would this work?

[slate swan]

thats for the latest version in 1.7.3 of dpy Bot.loop is literal to

self.loop: asyncio.AbstractEventLoop = loop or asyncio.get_event_loop()

[fading marlin]

add_roles expects a discord.Role object, not a string, so no, it won't work

[scarlet aurora]

so how can I refer back to the roles that were appended?

[vale wing]

await user.remove_roles(*roles)```
If `roles` is a list you need to convert it to args list

[scarlet aurora]

oh ok

[vale wing]

Pretty sure your roles is actually role tho

[livid hinge]

ah

[scarlet aurora]

so how can I refer back to the roles that were appended?

[vale wing]

Data is actually the list of discord.Role if you used something like this

[scarlet aurora]

does this put them into variables?

[vale wing]

This construction makes no sense btw — you literally add the same role every time you remove some other. If you intend to remove all roles in data from the user and add a single role, use this

await user.remove_roles(*data)
await user.add_roles(honor_guard_role)```

[scarlet aurora]

I used this

does that mean there are no variables?

@vale wing so smthing like this ```py
@commands.command()
@commands.has_permissions(administrator=True)
async def move(self, ctx, user: discord.Member = None, company = None):

    if user is None:
        await ctx.send("Choose someone to promote")
    
    if company is None:
        await ctx.send("Choose a company")

    data = []
    roles = [role.name for role in user.roles]


    for role_name in ('Honor Guard', 'Catulan Reaver', 'Despoiler Marine', 'Seeker Marine', 'Assault Marine', 'Destroyer Marine', 'Apothocarion',
        'Devastator Marine', 'Techmarine', 'Librarians', 'Breacher Siege Marine', 'Chaplain'):
        data.append(discord.utils.get(user.guild.roles, name=role_name))




    if company == '1st':
        for roles in data:
            await user.remove_roles(*data)
            await user.add_roles('Honor Guard')```

[livid hinge]

do you mean to add a role object there

[vale wing]

Well that list of roles is kinda big do this instead (it is faster)

role_names = (...)  # your big tuple goes here
roles = [r for r in ctx.guild.roles if r.name in role_names and r in user.roles]
honor_guard = discord.utils.get(roles, name="Honor Guard")

if company == "1st":
    await user.remove_roles(*roles)
    await user.add_roles(honor_guard)```

[livid hinge]

idk if this is a problem but it seems to imply it will let them choose but always does Honor Guard

oh nvm it is doing something else

you get demoted to honor guard when you are noved

[vale wing]

Another suggestion: don't make arguments that are supposed to be required optional and then handle unprovided arguments in the command itself.

Instead, use an error handler. For this case, local handler might be suitable but I highly recommend making global error handler and not writing error messages for literally every missing argument

[scarlet aurora]

oh ok

ty

[sick birch]

I believe commands.MissingRequiredArgument provides an attribute that tells you which argument was missing

You can use that to provide more customized error messages

[formal basin]

Hello I’m trying to make a notification were when someone plays a game and it shows on their discord profile then the bot will send a message but I have a problem what do I put here

[sick birch]

Can you paste the relevant code instead of sending a screenshot?

[sick birch]

ah yeah, error.param.name

Given isinstance(error, commands.MissingRequiredArgument) is True

[formal basin]

Anyone?

[sick birch]

hard to figure out what the issue is because it's hard to read the screenshot

Paste your code and any errors

Don't send a screenshot

[formal basin]

@client.event
async def on_member_update(self, before, after):
        if after.guild.id == 964841408257200179:

            else:
                return

[formal basin]

Here is the code

[sick birch]

Any errors?

[formal basin]

Yeah

Undefined name “playing_game”

[sick birch]

First things I noticed, use guild.get_* methods instead of utils.get(...)

[formal basin]

What is wrong with that

[formal basin]

That has nothing to do with the problem

[sick birch]

guild.get_* is cleaner, it's also O(1) due to hash map lookup. utils.get(...) I believe is exponential

I know, but issues like that are distracting when it comes to finding the main issue

[formal basin]

Ok

But do you know the problem I’m having?

[sick birch]

And another thing, this entire chunk doesn't do anything:

            async for message in channel.history(limit=200):
                if before.mention in message.content and "is now playing" in message.content:
                    if isinstance(after.activity, Playing):
                        return

[sick birch]

yes, the error is clear, "playing_game" was not defined

                playing_service = playing_game_split[1]
                playing_service = Playing_game.capitalize()

you reference it here, but it's not defined before

[formal basin]

So like what do I put. I want it to be the name of the game

So what do I put instead of playing_game

[sick birch]

member.activity.name can be used to find the name of the game, given it's an instance of discord.Game

[formal basin]

Ok

Thanks

[sick birch]

if isinstance(member.activity, discord.Game):
  activity_name = member.activity.name

The typeguard is important

[karmic marsh]

quick question

how do I delete this message after it's been sent?

msg = await inter.response.send_message("Do you want to continue?", view=view)

[vale wing]

What lib

[crisp drift]

you can use the delete_after kwarg

[vale wing]

Pretty sure most of them don't return anything tho

[vale wing]

He wants to delete it after the view has been interacted with

[karmic marsh]

disnake

[paper sluice]

inter.message.delete() should do

[crisp drift]

Then he can use the on_interaction callback and delete the message from it

[vale wing]

I guess you need to work with interaction you have in your View callback, current interaction is not the one you need. For the view's interaction just do inter.delete_original_message()

[karmic marsh]

yup, that's why I assign to msg

I just don't know what I need to do to delete msg

[vale wing]

Most inter.send don't return message object afaik

[karmic marsh]

ah, okay

[vale wing]

You can access the message in your View's callback interaction

How do you implement the view

[karmic marsh]

class Confirm(disnake.ui.View):
    def __init__(self):
        super().__init__()
        self.value = None

    @disnake.ui.button(label="Confirm", style=disnake.ButtonStyle.green)
    async def confirm(self, button, interaction):
        await interaction.response.send_message("Confirming", ephemeral=True)
        self.value = True
        self.stop()

    @disnake.ui.button(label="Cancel", style=disnake.ButtonStyle.grey)
    async def cancel(self, button: disnake.ui.Button, interaction: disnake.MessageInteraction):
        await interaction.response.send_message("Cancelling", ephemeral=True)
        self.value = False
        self.stop()

it's just the default example

[vale wing]

Try adding await inter.delete_original_message() or await inter.message.delete() (I don't remember what exactly the first one does but might work too) to each callback

[karmic marsh]

seems excessive

shouldn't there be a way to delete the bot's message?

[sick birch]

await msg.delete() should work

[vale wing]

!d disnake.InteractionResponse.send_message one check

[unkempt canyon]

disnake.InteractionResponse.send\_message

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

Responds to this interaction by sending a message.

[karmic marsh]

Command raised an exception: AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'delete'

[vale wing]

I don't think send_message returns the Message object

[sick birch]

Ah

[karmic marsh]

it works for a regular command with ctx but not a slash command with inter

[vale wing]

That's what I told you. Use this method

[sick birch]

I assumed it would as sending a regular message does

Then yeah that's the right way to do it

[karmic marsh]

the issue with deleting after the button is pressed is that then a timeout doesn't delete

[vale wing]

Sorry what

[odd mango]

hey

can any of these be observed from within the discord?

command_callback
filter_commands
on_help_command_error
prepare_help_command```

cause i am only doing these to make it look cool in an embed and stuff

[vale wing]

Unless you overwrite them, they shouldn't

[odd mango]

i am asking which ones give the output within discord

and how do the default outputs look like

[vale wing]

Default output right?

[odd mango]

yeah

[odd mango]

default of these

[vale wing]

I don't think anything besides these gives output but you should check on_help_command_error source

[odd mango]

cool!

https://github.com/Rapptz/discord.py/blob/v1.x/discord/ext/commands/help.py#L656-L675

looks like it gives no output, peace then

[karmic marsh]

Alright, I figured out deleting original message

await inter.send("Do you want to continue?", view=view)
await view.wait()
await inter.delete_original_message()

[odd mango]

what is the optimal way to handle CommandNotFound error

[scarlet aurora]

await user.remove_roles(roles)``` roles is an array, how can I get this to remove the roles in 1 go

and not keep looping through

[odd mango]

you do need to loop it if its an array

roles = []
for role in roles:
    await user.remove_roles(roles)```

[scarlet aurora]

it loops only once

but for some reaosn

it keeps removing the role

[karmic marsh]

there's no difference between looping through it manually and whatever 'in one go' solution you could find (which would actually just be looping on the backend)

[torn sail]

await user.remove_roles(*roles)

[odd mango]

thats just _ looping on the backend_

[torn sail]

No it’s not

[odd mango]

wat

[scarlet aurora]

discord.ext.commands.errors.CommandInvokeError: Command raised an exception: TypeError: discord.member.Member.remove_roles() argument after * must be an iterable, not Role

[odd mango]

ohh right

remove_roles(*[roleOne, roleTwo])```

[torn sail]

Yeah this

[scarlet aurora]

what goes in roleone, role two ??

[odd mango]

get roles from guild

[scarlet aurora]

i wanted to remove the roles in data

        roles = [role.name for role in user.roles]```

[odd mango]

but you never used data

[scarlet aurora]

        if company == '1st':
            for roles in data:
                await user.remove_roles(*[])
                await user.add_roles(Honor_Guard)```

[odd mango]

no need for for loop there

[scarlet aurora]

so what do I do

[odd mango]

        if company == '1st':
                await user.remove_roles(*data)
                await user.add_roles(Honor_Guard)```

[odd mango]

@scarlet aurora ^^ ?

if you know about it

[scarlet aurora]

it removes all the rnaks

it removes Honor_Guard that was added

i mean

[odd mango]

...

lmao just remove honor guard role from data

[scarlet aurora]

BROOO

I CAN'T DO THAT

because if they choose '2nd' for example, it will ask to remove a different role that's in data

[odd mango]

oh

then uh try sleeping 1 sec before adding Honor_Guard

[scarlet aurora]

alr

[scarlet aurora]

i was thinking that

async sleep or time sleep

[odd mango]

time sleep

is what i prefer, your choice really

[potent spear]

what's your goal here? remove all roles but one?

[odd mango]

not mine, the other guy

yeah seems like it

[potent spear]

is it his intention?

[odd mango]

yeah

[potent spear]

well, just filter out that role before removing it all, lol

removing it first and adding it again is fucked up ofc

[odd mango]

yeah right

[potent spear]

can be done with a simple list comprehension

await member.remove_roles([role for role in member.roles if role.id != <honor guard role id>])

or to split things up
member_roles_except_honour_guard = [role for role in member.roles if role.id != <honor guard role id>]
await member.remove_roles(member_roles_except_honour_guard )

[scarlet aurora]

no work

[odd mango]

no they want to remove all roles, and then add honor guards
what if a user dosent already have honor guard

[potent spear]

then filter it out anyways...

its not like it would error

[odd mango]

yeah it looks cool

[torn sail]

you shouldnt use time sleep in this case

it is blocking

[odd mango]

do anyone of yk about this?

[torn sail]

do you mean within the code or a response to the user?

[odd mango]

no bot gives response about that, so i think just within the code

[karmic marsh]

is it possible to edit an ephemeral message?

[odd mango]

edit? idts

will it be py @bot.event async def on_command_error(ctx, error): if isinstance(error, CommandNotFound): return raise error

[heady sluice]

[torn sail]

yeah this

[odd mango]

peace

[karmic marsh]

I would like to send a response to a slash command with an ephemeral message containing buttons

and then edit the response after a button is pressed

[scarlet aurora]

        if company == '1st':
            for roles in data:
                await user.remove_roles([role for role in user.roles if role.name != 'Honor Guard'])``` @odd mango @potent spear what about this? why doesn't this work

[potent spear]

I wouldn't filter on name if I were you

[scarlet aurora]

why not

[potent spear]

also, the for loop is useless

[odd mango]

i told them that

[odd mango]

use ids instead

[scarlet aurora]

ok

[potent spear]

names can change, ID's can't

[scarlet aurora]

1 last thing

it aint working

[odd mango]

😂

[potent spear]

what is data?

I could tell you
shit("a")
"this function isn't working"

that's the equivalent of info I'm getting from you currently

[scarlet aurora]

    @commands.command()
    @commands.has_permissions(administrator=True)
    async def move(self, ctx, user: discord.Member = None, company = None):
        
        if user is None:

                time.sleep(1)
                await user.add_roles(Honor_Guard)```

[potent spear]

alright

simple fix

remove this shit

if company == '1st':
            for roles in data:
                await user.remove_roles([role for role in user.roles if role.name != 'Honor Guard'])
                time.sleep(1)
                await user.add_roles(Honor_Guard)```
replace with
```py
if company == '1st':
  member_roles_except_honor_guard = [role for role in user.roles if role.id != <honor guard role id>]
  await user.remove_roles(member_roles_except_honor_guard )```

also, replace all those names with ID's please
unless you want your bot to work in multiple guilds...

[scarlet aurora]

i want for role in data

[potent spear]

no you don't

[scarlet aurora]

?

[potent spear]

not needed

[scarlet aurora]

but i only want to to remove roles that the user.roles have that sync with data

cause I don't want to remove external ranks

[potent spear]

alright, will this bot only run in 1 guild?

[scarlet aurora]

yes

[potent spear]

then use IDs instead

[scarlet aurora]

sooo, how I do this?

make it remove only the ranks from data and user.roles

[potent spear]

create some sort of config file which looks like

{
"Honor Guard": 515151,
"Catulan Reaver": 5151515,
...}```

[scarlet aurora]

alr

json

[potent spear]

because most likely, you'll need those IDs in multiple commands ,right?

[scarlet aurora]

prolly not

[potent spear]

well, in that case, you can optionally just initialize it in that command only

just call it rank_role_name_id_dict

no json needed then

once that's done, you can do some sexy stuff

[scarlet aurora]

done

[potent spear]

alright

[scarlet aurora]

I finished the json

file

[potent spear]

no file needed in your case

[scarlet aurora]

r u serious

[potent spear]

you can just initialize it in the command

[scarlet aurora]

do u know how long that just took me

[potent spear]

you still need it....

[scarlet aurora]

we might as well use the json file

[potent spear]

it's just rank_role_... = {<your file shit>}

[scarlet aurora]

oh ok

d one

[potent spear]

so now, you don't need all the
Honor Guard = ...
shit anymore
you can just do
all_rank_roles = [ctx.guild.get_role(role_id) for role_id in rank_role_name_id_dict.values()]

[scarlet aurora]

but i kinda need da variables

[potent spear]

for?

[scarlet aurora]

to add those roles

to the people

[potent spear]

nope, let's say you need only Honor guard and Catulan Reaver, right?

[scarlet aurora]

12 ranks

but i still need the variables

or not?

[potent spear]

you don't man

[potent spear]

unless for every separate option, you have different roles to give

[karmic marsh]

is it possible to make a slash command show only to the issuer without making it ephemeral?

[odd mango]

i dont get pycharm, here ctx is needed but pycharm says its not being used

[scarlet aurora]

yep

exactly that

        if company == '1st':
            hg = [role for role in user.roles if role.id != <honor guard role id >]
            await user.remove_roles(hg)
            time.sleep(1)
            await user.add_roles(Honor_Guard)

        if company == '2nd':
            for roles in data:
                await user.remove_roles(*data)
                time.sleep(1)
                await user.add_roles(Catulan_Reaver)

        if company == '3rd':
            for roles in data:
                await user.remove_roles(*data)
                time.sleep(1)
                await user.add_roles(Despoiler_Marine)

        if company == '4th':
            for roles in data:
                await user.remove_roles(*data)
                time.sleep(1)
                await user.add_roles(Seeker_Marine)```

[odd mango]

remove the for loops lmao

[potent spear]

alright, so first things first

remove all the time sleeps
use elifs

[scarlet aurora]

alr

say less

[torn sail]

ignore that

[odd mango]

dont like the slight warning bugging me

can i go disable it somewhere

[potent spear]

then
use this
await user.add_roles(ctx.guild.get_role(rank_role_name_id_dict["Honor Guard"]))

[odd mango]

its annoying to see that lmao

[torn sail]

idk

yeah

[scarlet aurora]

done

[potent spear]

you could use _ as param name

but in the back of your head, you know that it's ctx

[potent spear]

code?

[scarlet aurora]

        if company == '1st':
            hg = [role for role in user.roles if role.id != <honor guard role id >]
            await user.remove_roles(hg)
            await user.add_roles(ctx.guild.get_role(rank_ids["Honor Guard"]))

        elif company == '2nd':
            for roles in data:
                await user.remove_roles(*data)
                await user.add_roles(Catulan_Reaver)```

[karmic marsh]

restart IDE

[potent spear]

no for loops needed

[odd mango]

no work i tried

[scarlet aurora]

ye I haven't started on 2nd one yet

[odd mango]

ditch it aint discord bot related anyways

[potent spear]

first one is not completely good, fix it first, you're sharing unfinished shit

[scarlet aurora]

alr

[potent spear]

also, please rename the arg to member, since member and user are different objects

[odd mango]

can static data stored in json handle constant and heavy fetching?

[potent spear]

use case?

static data would only be read once anyways... no need to open that json file every time...

[scarlet aurora]

        if company == '1st':
            hg = [role for role in user.roles if role.id != (rank_ids["Honor Guard"])]
            await user.remove_roles(hg)
            await user.add_roles(ctx.guild.get_role(rank_ids["Honor Guard"]))

        elif company == '2nd':
            await user.remove_roles(*data)
            await user.add_roles(Catulan_Reaver)```

[odd mango]

yeah just on startup right

[potent spear]

pretty close

[scarlet aurora]

there is a chance

but it's not intended for that

[potent spear]

aight, just rename hg to something obvious and you're good

[scarlet aurora]

hg = honour guard

i'm fine with that

[potent spear]

yes, but that's not what the list represents

[scarlet aurora]

i understand, everything except hg

[potent spear]

it's a list of all ranks EXCEPT honour guard

[scarlet aurora]

alright hold on

[potent spear]

that's list comprehension, you should read more on that
example

shit = []
for number in range(5):
  shit.append(number)

# is the exact same as
shit = [number for number in range(5)]

[scarlet aurora]

alright

[potent spear]

ok, but there's still one problem here

what if honour guard was already a role he got? then he got it for nothing...?

[scarlet aurora]

wdym

[potent spear]

your "except_hg"
is currently a list of all roles the member has EXCEPT the honour guard role (if he even got it)

you previously mentioned that you don't want to remove certain roles...

[scarlet aurora]

yes

i only want to remove the ones in data = []

[potent spear]

well, then that except_hg makes no sense

[scarlet aurora]

i was just looking at that and realised that it would remove all ranks except hg lool

it should be for roles in data

[potent spear]

are you even sure you're removing roles the user has?

[scarlet aurora]

yes

[potent spear]

what if you're removing roles of the member and he doesn't even have that role...?

[scarlet aurora]

removing only marine ranks

all those ranks, are marine ranks, when the command is executed, his marine command gets wiped and gets the new one

[potent spear]

have you checked out list comprehension by now?

[scarlet aurora]

yeah

[potent spear]

because this is what it should look like without list comprehension:

marine_rank_role_ids_except_hg = []
for rank_role_id in marine_ranks_dict.values():
  if rank_role_id != <hg role id>:
  marine_rank_role_ids_except_hg.append(rank_role_id)```

I hope you know what .values() does

[scarlet aurora]

ofc i know what values does

selects all values in the array

[potent spear]

the ~dict, yeah

[scarlet aurora]

would it be easier if I screen share?

[potent spear]

ofc not

you can perfectly move on now

[scarlet aurora]

ok

[odd mango]

casual question, can i make a command to EDIT dict keys? cause the dict values are too long and i dont wanna scroll just to edit keys

[potent spear]

you can make it even better

marine_rank_role_except_hg = []
for rank_role_id in marine_ranks_dict.values():
  if rank_role_id != <hg role id>:
  rank_role = ctx.guild.get_role(rank_role_id)
  marine_rank_role_ids_except_hg.append(rank_role)

await member.remove_roles(marine_rank_role_except_hg)```

[potent spear]

you should have 2 args in that command
the key, and the new value

async def change_shit(ctx, key:str, new_value: str)
(this is if the key and value are 1 word, else you'll need another approach)

[odd mango]

they arent 1 word

p a i n

[scarlet aurora]

        if company == '1st':

            marine_rank_role_except_hg = []
            for rank_role_id in marine_ranks_dict.values():
                if rank_role_id != (rank_ids["Honor Guard"]):
                    rank_role = ctx.guild.get_role(rank_role_id)
                    marine_rank_role_ids_except_hg.append(rank_role)

            await user.remove_roles(marine_rank_role_except_hg)
            await user.add_roles(ctx.guild.get_role(rank_ids["Honor Guard"]))``` @potent spear  What is marine_ranks_dict.values ??

[potent spear]

the new value isn't, I suppose?

[odd mango]

both

[potent spear]

that's rank_ids.values() in your case

[potent spear]

well idk why you want to change the json regularly, but this feels like you need a db

[karmic marsh]

okay, this is starting to really frustrate

[potent spear]

not very "static" if you'd ask me

[karmic marsh]

I want to respond to a slash command with some buttons for the user to press

[odd mango]

this is only once

[potent spear]

when and why?

[karmic marsh]

and then I want the response to change once the user has responded

[odd mango]

after i am done editing it for a nice 1 hour sitting, the json is static forever afterwards

[scarlet aurora]

@potent spear thanks a lot for ur help

[karmic marsh]

I don't care if that means deleting the first response, editing it, or what

and I want this to only be visible to the user sending it, which is what causes problems

[potent spear]

so you'll manually need to do this after 1 hour every time the bot restarts? are you sure you can't automate this?

[potent spear]

this is called "ephemeral"

[karmic marsh]

because you can't edit an ephemeral response, and you can't delete an ephemeral response

[odd mango]

not after every restart, just ONCE

[karmic marsh]

as far as I can tell

[potent spear]

#discord-bots message

[potent spear]

that's correct

[odd mango]

you can say i am just writing the json

[karmic marsh]

so then I can't do what I want

because you can't do the whole hidden=True on a slash command

[potent spear]

You can't delete it, but edit, maybe? idk

[karmic marsh]

so then how do you edit an ephemeral message

that becomes the big question

and as far as I can tell, you can't

[scarlet aurora]

@potent spear discord.ext.commands.errors.CommandInvokeError: Command raised an exception: AttributeError: 'list' object has no attribute 'id'

[potent spear]

probably a view.edit arg or whatever, I've never used slash

[potent spear]

you forgot 1 thing

[scarlet aurora]

        if company == '1st':

            except_hg = []
            for rank_role_id in rank_ids.values():
                if rank_role_id != (rank_ids["Honor Guard"]):

            await user.remove_roles(except_hg)
            await user.add_roles(ctx.guild.get_role(rank_ids["Honor Guard"]))``` code ^^

[potent spear]

you have to do
await user.remove_roles(*****except_hg)

the *

[scarlet aurora]

ah ofc

astrisk

[odd mango]

the json is directly scraped from a website and i dont like its key names so i just want to edit it to whatever i want and then use the json. after i am done editing the json IT WILL REMAIN UNTOUCHED hence static forever after that

[potent spear]

hmm, should be pretty simple

[karmic marsh]

okay, so how would I do that within the view

[potent spear]

you can do
async def change_shit(ctx, key:str, * ,new_value: str)
command can be called like
!change_shit "my key value" this is my new value

[potent spear]

never used slash, I can't say tbh

[odd mango]

so like this

!change_shit "small shit" very big shit

[karmic marsh]

okay so does somebody here know how to edit an ephemeral message

[potent spear]

yup, you'll need " for the key ofc, since otherwise, it'll never know when the new_value starts

unless you want to split by - or whatever

[karmic marsh]

here's my code:

class Confirm(disnake.ui.View):
    def __init__(self):
        super().__init__()
        self.value = None

    @disnake.ui.button(label="Confirm", style=disnake.ButtonStyle.green)
    async def confirm(self, button, interaction):
        await self.edit("Confirming", ephemeral=True) # This doesn't work
        self.value = True
        self.stop()

class Ask(commands.Cog):

    def __init__(self, bot):
        self.bot = bot

    @commands.slash_command()
    async def ask(inter):
        """Asks the user a question to confirm something."""
        view = Confirm()
        await inter.send("Do you want to continue?", view=view, ephemeral=True)

I just need something instead of ```py
await self.edit("Confirming", ephemeral=True)

there has to be some solution

[scarlet aurora]

@potent spear it takes like 5 seconds to add the rank, is that normal?

[potent spear]

depends on what your code looks like

[scarlet aurora]

the same code we made together

[karmic marsh]

this is driving me crazy

[stark fable]

Hi guys, can someone help me ?

[sick birch]

ask away

[stark fable]

I m developing a simple discord bot that starts when I type a command (for example !start) and then enters in an infinite loop. I wanna implement a command !stop to pause the bot and then I can type again !start to restart the bot
Note that I don’t want to turn offline the bot, it should be online always, even if it’s on pause. I hope you understand my problem, sorry for bad English

[frozen patio]

How can I fix this

[frozen patio]

Like Cogs?

[scarlet aurora]

@potent spear

[potent spear]

seems like a background task to me

[scarlet aurora]

@potent spear Can you help me with this? ```py
@commands.command()
@commands.has_permissions(administrator=True)
async def promote(self, ctx, user: discord.Member = None):

    if user is None:
        await ctx.send("Choose someone to promote")

[stark fable]

Idk what is it

[potent spear]

read the error

[frozen patio]

What is the error?

[frozen patio]

I did it is installed

[scarlet aurora]

no error just doesn't work

[potent spear]

your if statements make no sense

[potent spear]

that's not what it says

[stark fable]

Yeah like a function that takes input and does different things depending on what’s the message

[scarlet aurora]

how

[karmic marsh]

okay... this should be an easy problem to solve: I'm trying to edit this message (which has a View element in it) after one of the buttons in the View is clicked. So far I can edit the text, but I would also like to remove the buttons and not have the 'interaction failed' message
here is the code:

class Confirm(disnake.ui.View):
    def __init__(self,):
        super().__init__()
        self.value = None

    @disnake.ui.button(label="Confirm", style=disnake.ButtonStyle.green)
    async def confirm(self, button, interaction):
        self.value = True
        self.stop()

    @disnake.ui.button(label="Cancel", style=disnake.ButtonStyle.grey)
    async def cancel(self, button, inter):
        await inter.send()
        self.value = False
        self.stop()

class Ask(commands.Cog):

    def __init__(self, bot):
        self.bot = bot

    @commands.slash_command()
    async def ask(inter):
        """Asks the user a question to confirm something."""
        view = Confirm()
        await inter.send("Do you want to continue?", view=view, ephemeral = True)
        await view.wait()
                # There needs to be a line here to remove the View's elements
        if view.value is None:
            await inter.edit_original_message("Timed out")
        elif view.value:
            await inter.edit_original_message("Confirmed")
        else:
            await inter.edit_original_message("Cancelled")

[stark fable]

Idk if I explained well ahah

[frozen patio]

Why is an enum error showing up

[potent spear]

the if statement would look like
if rank_ids["Neophytes"] in [role.id for role in user.roles]:

[potent spear]

read the warning, that might be the issue

[potent spear]

good enough, check out tasks in discord py

[scarlet aurora]

        role = user.roles.id

        if role in rank_ids.values():
            if user.roles(rank_ids["Luna Wolves"]):
                await (ctx.guild.remove_role(rank_ids["Luna Wolves"]))
                await (ctx.guild.add_role(rank_ids["Neophytes"]))

            elif rank_ids["Neophytes"] in [role.id for role in user.roles]:
                await (ctx.guild.remove_roles(rank_ids["Neophytes"]))
                await (ctx.guild.add_roles(rank_ids["Battle Brother"]))``` like this?

[frozen patio]

Well according to the documentation, what I have is right

[potent spear]

yup, now do that in every if statement

[stark fable]

Thanks buddy

[potent spear]

well, a combination of nextcord and discord py can't be

[frozen patio]

I do not think that matters??

[scarlet aurora]

thanks

[potent spear]

there's literally a warning...

[frozen patio]

The warning didn't change anything

[karmic marsh]

okay come on

does nobody here know about views?

like having a button attached to a message?

I just want to remove the button once it has been interacted with

[frozen patio]

Set disabled to true?

[potent spear]

button.disabled = True
fast and easy

[karmic marsh]

isn't disabled just a visual style?

[potent spear]

try and see

[karmic marsh]

I want to completely remove it

[frozen patio]

Hmmmm

I would rather do what Sniper up here said

Cause you still cannot use those

[karmic marsh]

I want it to disappear completely

I am changing the text of the message when the button is pressed

I want it to look like a response

[frozen patio]

Then change like the others to gray and the one clicked is like green?

[karmic marsh]

I want this:

to become this:

by editing the original response

[frozen patio]

Just do what you did there in the original message

[karmic marsh]

this is what my code is doing currently:

the text changes

but the buttons stay

and it says interaction failed

here's the code that I have:

class Confirm(disnake.ui.View):
    def __init__(self,):
        super().__init__()
        self.value = None

    @disnake.ui.button(label="Confirm", style=disnake.ButtonStyle.green)
    async def confirm(self, button, interaction):
        self.value = True
        self.stop()

    @disnake.ui.button(label="Cancel", style=disnake.ButtonStyle.grey)
    async def cancel(self, button, inter):
        button.disabled = True
        self.value = False
        self.stop()

class Ask(commands.Cog):

    def __init__(self, bot):
        self.bot = bot

    @commands.slash_command()
    async def ask(inter):
        """Asks the user a question to confirm something."""
        view = Confirm()
        await inter.send("Do you want to continue?", view=view, ephemeral = True)
        await view.wait()
        view.clear_items() # does nothing
        if view.value is None:
            await inter.edit_original_message("Timed out")
        elif view.value:
            await inter.edit_original_message("Confirmed")
        else:
            await inter.edit_original_message("Cancelled")

I can edit the text just fine

AH

I got it

rubber duck programming lmao

[frozen patio]

[karmic marsh]

await inter.edit_original_message("Timed out", view=None)```

set the view to none when I edit and it does exactly what I want

[slate swan]

def clear_views():
     return None
await inter.edit_original_message("uwu", view=clear_views())

uwu

[karmic marsh]

now, is there a way to set the view to only one of its elements?

[slate swan]

hm, just disable every other view component?
