[cerulean folio]

I'd like to make a folder called commands where each command will have its file called command.py since each command is a big chunk of code.

First question: Is this a good way to organise my code?
Second question: Do I need to learn about __init__.py and use it for that purpose?
Third question: Is it something that could be learnt and executed in less than two hours?

[paper sluice]

Uve turned into a python interpreter, congrats

[stray adder]

Help me in this intend always getting stuck here🤯

[paper sluice]

Learn about cogs they will help you spread out ur commands across files, they are not that hard as well

[slate swan]

dont make me raise a syntax error😳

what the dog doing🐕

[slate swan]

exit()

[slate swan]

🗿

[stray adder]

Hlp how to fix this

[cerulean folio]

are cogs related to python in general or to discord.py lib?

[paper sluice]

Learning from previous mistakes ic

[slate swan]

🙂 you know it

[slate swan]

dpy

[stray adder]

Someone pls help me brooo

[slate swan]

cogs are just a subclass of a Cog class

[flat solstice]

Is there a specific URL that dictates to discord that a bot is adding a role to someone? Ik things like guild ID, member ID and role ID would be dynamic values but could I conceivably manually manipulate this URL and store it statically?

[shrewd apex]

think of it as an extension of ur bots code like u are plugging in an pendrive in a computer

[shrewd apex]

it's not dynamic

[slate swan]

https://discord.com/developers/docs/resources/guild#modify-guild-member with an array of roles

so its less of the url, but the json params actually

[flat solstice]

Well the values such as member ID, guild ID and role ID would be, wouldn't they?, otherwise how do you specify which member in which guild gets which role?

[stiff fern]

        def check(reaction ,user):
            return str(reaction.emoji) #and reaction.message == suggestion_embed

        reaction = await interaction.client.wait_for('reaction_add', check=check)

        if reaction and str(reaction.emoji) == '![Yes](https://cdn.discordapp.com/emojis/986643084718796810.webp?size=128 "Yes")':
            print('Approved ')
            suggestion_embed.set_footer(text='Status: Accepted\n')
        elif reaction and str(reaction.emoji) == '![No](https://cdn.discordapp.com/emojis/986643106835353691.webp?size=128 "No")':
            print('Rejected')
            suggestion_embed.set_footer(text='Status: Rejected\n')

'tuple' object has no attribute 'emoji'

I printed reaction and it does have emoji so Im confused

[shrewd apex]

guild Id -> member id -> roles -> [roles]

[flat solstice]

Thanks sarth

[cerulean folio]

is await channel.send('Welcome {0.mention}.'.format(member)) the equivalent of await channel.send('Welcome {member.mention}.' ?

[slate swan]

or f"Welcome {member.mention}.", yes. but you should not be using that.

[shrewd apex]

it's same as once u create a discord acc ur userid is fixed it won't keep changing think of it as a json or dict as sarth said

[cerulean folio]

why not?

[slate swan]

!f-strings

1 min

[shrewd apex]

iirc it's prolly due to some injection problems

[slate swan]

https://realpython.com/python-f-strings/

[flat solstice]

Ik member/guild/role IDs are static, but the input to the endpoint/URL will be dynamic otherwise it would only modify 1 role of 1 member in 1 guild

[karmic marsh]

hey, how can I get the response out of a modal that I send?

[slate swan]

callback

!d discord.ui.Modal ( checking docs)

[karmic marsh]

mymodal = disnake.ui.Modal(title="Create Tag",
            custom_id=f"tag-{str(inter.id)}", components=[CustomColorTitleInput(inter, self.user), CustomColorHexInput(inter, self.user)])
await inter.response.send_modal(modal=mymodal)

[shrewd apex]

no like u link a message in this channel it will be domain/guildid/channelid/messageid

[slate swan]

How to find out the number of bots on the server (discord.py)

[paper sluice]

No, that's related to SQL + python. Not normal str formatting

[shrewd apex]

ic

[slate swan]

!d discord.Member.bot

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Member.bot

property bot```
Equivalent to [`User.bot`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.User.bot "discord.User.bot")

[slate swan]

Modal.on_submit is called when the modal is submitted ```py
from discord import ui

class Questionnaire(ui.Modal, title='Questionnaire Response'):
name = ui.TextInput(label='Name')
answer = ui.TextInput(label='Answer', style=discord.TextStyle.paragraph)

async def on_submit(self, interaction: discord.Interaction):
    await interaction.response.send_message(f'Thanks for your response, {self.name}!', ephemeral=True)

[karmic marsh]

so do I have to define the modal as a class to be able to do this?

[karmic marsh]

that's not how I'm doing it currently

[paper sluice]

Imagine filling a discord modal to apply for a job

[slate swan]

ah disnake. its eaisier

[cunning iris]

hi everyone. I wanted to know if it was possible to have a discord bot that everyone could use to play a game on a separate window, by using commands to interact within the game, which could be an easier way to make multiplayer ?

[slate swan]

modal = disnake.ui.Modal(...)
async def callback(inter: disnake.Interaction):
   # use inter.text_values to get responses

modal.callback = callback

[karmic marsh]

ah, perfect

[paper sluice]

Open a window on their computer though discord? No, it might be possible but it surely would be against tos

[shrewd apex]

make a custom channel ig

[karmic marsh]

use inter.text_values to get responses
how would I do this for two text_inputs?

[sick birch]

Discord bots can't open seperate windows, you could send them to a website link you made however

[karmic marsh]

nvm

[cunning iris]

nah, have them launch an app, that they could interact with through the bot, not launch one

[shrewd apex]

that defeats the purpose of game on discord bot tho

[flat solstice]

so if I wanted to add this servers voice verified role to myself it would behttps://discordapp.com/api/guilds/267624335836053506/members/365262543872327681/{ "roles": [764802720779337729],}ik a bot account would have to call the URL, with a token(?) but not ure where that would go in the URL

[slate swan]

not quite how discord api works

[shrewd apex]

i was just telling u thats ids are static send an req link one sends a req and returns a form of response

[sick birch]

Simple multiplayer games like tic tac toe you can do with buttons, but it's hard to make more complex games on discord

[shrewd apex]

to get stuff done u have to use other fields like headers data files payload requests have a lot of fields

[sick birch]

Considering discord is a social media platform rather than a gaming platform

[cunning iris]

you told me it's possible to interact with a website tho, are there existing things I can check for this ?

[paper sluice]

I keep forgetting that discord was originally made for gamers to chat xd

[sick birch]

By interacting with a website I mean that your bot can send a link to a website, and your users can click on it

[cunning iris]

ooh

nevermind then, thanks still

[shrewd apex]

ur bot just redirects or send the website link actual stuff is still on the website

[karmic marsh]

AttributeError: 'Modal' object attribute 'callback' is read-only

[slate swan]

Who cares lol

[karmic marsh]

that sounds like a problem unless I did something wrong

[slate swan]

then you need to use the subclass method 👍

[shrewd apex]

u can create a channel for the user or use dms that's prolly the best u can do

[karmic marsh]

you mean defining the modal as a class?

[shrewd apex]

yeah dpy 2.0 some interaction methods don't work without subclassing

[cunning iris]

and is there maybe a way I can use a bot to read a file on someone's pc to get some game data ?

[shrewd apex]

speaking from experience

[slate swan]

yeah, or another way round will be this ```py
class Modal(disnake.ui.Modal):
...
modal = Modal(...)
async def callback(inter: disnake.Interaction):

use inter.text_values to get responses

modal.callback = callback```

[shrewd apex]

no way that definitely breakes all tos

[slate swan]

maybe, cause this works for slots

[flat solstice]

what about this? That seems to be what the ss is implyinghttps://discordapp.com/api/guilds/267624335836053506/members/365262543872327681/roles/764802720779337729

[cunning iris]

I mean, someone uploads a file and the bot gets its informations

[shrewd apex]

yeah that can be done

[sick birch]

No, the bots don't run client side which is why things like opening windows aren't possible

[shrewd apex]

it's easy

[sick birch]

If that user voluntarily sends some files over discord, then yes you can do things with that

[shrewd apex]

suppose they send file as attachment

u can just post a request to the attachment link and fetch it

[sick birch]

Ask yourself if you can do something, if the answer is no, then the bot can't do it either, most of the time. Can you access my files that are on my computer right now through discord? No. Can the bot? No.

Can you open a window on my computer to play a game through discord? No. Can the bot? No.

You get the point

[flat solstice]

i'm trying to get this to work through a button. So users click the button and the bot adds/removes the role. Do I need to append the bots token or somehting to auth it to perform the action?

[shrewd apex]

even if it were possible i wouldn't want to authorise a third party bot to

[cunning iris]

just like asher answered, I just wanted to fetch the infos from an uploaded file

[sick birch]

Then you can do that using message.attachments

[shrewd apex]

why not just use the dpy functions

add a button callback

[karmic marsh]

this sounds very similar to what I'm doing right now

I'm assigning roles from a list and allowing users to create their own roles

through a button click

[flat solstice]

that would be the better way to do that I agree, however it doesn't work for my very specific use case

[sick birch]

Which is?

[flat solstice]

A really dumb faq bot. I found it on GitHub and it doesn't support the button callbacks in the right way. I am going to write a new version at some point but I a) don't have the time rn and b) need it up and running asap

[shrewd apex]

wdym dosent support button callback in right way

view = View()
button = Button()

async def button_callback(interaction):
      #stuff
button.callback = callback
view.add_item(button)
await ctx.send('message', view=view)

thats all u need to do

[flat solstice]

mostly in a way I understand lol, this particular bot is using raw API calls and what appears to be a fully custom interaction handler

[slate swan]

it's guild.name since guild is an instance of Guild

And what should be done?

Remove discord.

[flat solstice]

yep

[shrewd apex]

just guild.name

[slate swan]

ok

And so everywhere?

depends....

[shrewd apex]

yeah everywhere

and self first then guild

[slate swan]

my_uwu_guild = ...
guild.name # inapplicable :pensive:

😔

[shrewd apex]

i didn't read the whole thing gives me adhd without `

[karmic marsh]

this ^ lol

[shrewd apex]

it shouldn't be required in this case tho

[slate swan]

hm, are decorators in red colour or yellow colour in the discord formatting?

[karmic marsh]

alright... this one is probably quite easy, I just don't know what I'm doing

[paper sluice]

Red

[slate swan]

oh ok... thanks

[karmic marsh]

I'm sending a modal and have a callback

but the modal doesn't close when I hit submit

what do I need to put in the callback to close the modal?

[slate swan]

Thanks

[slate swan]

discord issue

it has nothing to do with your backend

[karmic marsh]

no I think it's a skill issue lol

[slate swan]

restart the client

[karmic marsh]

reading docs now

[slate swan]

skill issue?

[karmic marsh]

yeah I'm pretty sure I did something wrong lol

[slate swan]

no.....the submit button is handled by discord itself smh

I'm dumb but not a whole lot

[karmic marsh]

nah, I was doing it wrong

wasn't responding to the interaction right

[slate swan]

well, no comments

[cerulean folio]

What do you guys think about this organisation? Is it good?

In main.py I used from ressources import embeds as emb, commands as cmd, requests as rq

[fluid ferry]

looks good to me

[cerulean folio]

aw ! cool !

[fluid ferry]

I wouldn't do it differend

[slate swan]

I have task.loop which i want the name of a channel to be edited every 5 seconds but after the 1st update, it stuck. Why's that?

[dense swallow]

can someone give me an example of button pagination

[slate swan]

https://gist.github.com/InterStella0/454cc51e05e60e63b81ea2e8490ef140

[dense swallow]

that is with reactions, not buttons.. i think discord-ext-menus support buttons but idk how to use it

wait nvm it covers that too
thanks ill have a look at it in detail

[slate swan]

There are a lot of sites that can cover you up

[dense swallow]

i did a simple google search and third party libs were brought up like discord-components

[slate swan]

it can be your code, or ratelimits

[slate swan]

Not even my code

-seconds=5
-get channel's id
-await channel.edit(name=f"{data})

[slate swan]

ok? then its ratelimits lol

Is this fixable ?

no

just make api calls later on

maybe 10 seconds would be fine

[cerulean folio]

Guys I have an issue where from discord import Button, View Button gets important, but View doesn't import. Curious thing is that this happens on a specific file, but the others import it just fine

[slate swan]

cz it's discord.ui not discord

[cerulean folio]

ooooooh thank youuu !

[vale wing]

Button gets important 😳

[cerulean folio]

|-commands
|   |-__init__.py
|   |-search.py
|
|-embeds
    |-__init__.py
    |-greeting.py

In search.py i'd like to import greeting.py how can i do it?
tried from embeds import greeting
console returned : ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'embeds'

[vale wing]

Had the same issue, seems like discord has a hidden ratelimit for channels name editing. 5 seconds is indeed a small interval, I recommend at least 5 minutes

[slate swan]

Oh ok. Did you fixed it like that?

[vale sierra]

did somebody has the link to send code ?

[vale wing]

Yeah I just set the update interval to like 30 minutes

But I think 5 is enough

[slate swan]

Ok thanks

[vale wing]

I even contacted discord support that time

[slate swan]

iirc it would be

from parent_folder_name.embeds import greetings

[vale wing]

Depends on the file the bot is being ran from

[slate swan]

In search.py i'd like to import greeting.py

[vale wing]

Still depends

[slate swan]

depends on what?

[vale wing]

Entrypoint script

[slate swan]

wut

[vale wing]

Idk I call it that

[slate swan]

🗿

[vale wing]

Basically the script you run

Usually named main.py

But not necessarily

The folder the file is in is considered project root and the imports can be done only from its insides

[slate swan]

what

[vale sierra]

https://paste.pythondiscord.com/onoluhanom Hello, i have a "mathematic" bug/error with my code, i use SQL / thats a gamble command

[slate swan]

Dear. please tell me how to add custom emoji to the server. there is an emoji picture in the folder

[quaint epoch]

could you THEORETICALLY, create a bot client, where you log in with bot credentials?

[vale sierra]

thats not the appropriate channel

[quaint epoch]

hey, i remember seeing you a few months ago

[slate swan]

With the help of a bot, you need to add

[slate swan]

!d discord.Guild.create_custom_emoji

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Guild.create\_custom\_emoji

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

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

There is currently a limit of 50 static and animated emojis respectively per guild, unless the guild has the `MORE_EMOJI` feature which extends the limit to 200.

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

[slate swan]

ОООО

[vale sierra]

thats possible

[vale wing]

So if you have it like this

some_folder
| - main.py
| - module
| - | - __init__.py
| - | - file.py
| - another_module
| - | - script.py

So if you have main.py as entrypoint to import file.py from module you have to do this (literally anywhere)

from module import file```
And if main.py is outside of `some_folder` it would be this `from some_folder.module import file`. In projects and not packages this is the strategy cause there can be only one entrypoint

[quaint epoch]

yeah but i never forget a name

[slate swan]

Thank you baby, but is there the same only to delete?

[vale sierra]

i see that lol

[quaint epoch]

!d discord.Guild.delete_custom_emoji

[slate swan]

!d discord.Guild.delete_emoji

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Guild.delete\_emoji

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

Deletes the custom [`Emoji`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.Emoji "discord.Emoji") from the guild.

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

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

[quaint epoch]

bruh

[vale sierra]

anyway did you know the origin of my problem ? @quaint epoch

[quaint epoch]

nope

[slate swan]

❤️

[slate swan]

no need for custom as it would accept an Emoji object which when you make a emoji with the create_custom_emoji it returns an Emoji object

[slate swan]

not always

[vale wing]

Unless you use relative imports it is always like that

[slate swan]

if youre trying to import script.py from file.py it would still be from some_folder.another_module import script.py iirc

[vale wing]

If the main.py is outside of some_folder yes

If it is inside, no

[slate swan]

that is so.

[stiff fern]

How would I get emoji from this, I've tried reaction.emoji and reaction[0] but it still gives me an error that tuple has no attribute emoji

[slate swan]

thats a tuple of a few objects

[slate swan]

manage_emojis. oh how do i download it?

[cerulean folio]

OMG

[vale wing]

First of all, how do you even get this

[cerulean folio]

I DID IT !!! Thank you guys !!!!

I LOVE YOU ALL SO MUCH !!! THANK YOUUUU ♥️ ♥️ ♥️ ♥️

[stiff fern]

 def check(reaction, user):
            return str(reaction.emoji) #and reaction.message == suggestion_embed

        reaction = await interaction.client.wait_for('reaction_add', check=check)

print(reaction)

[slate swan]

you dont download it, your bot would just need the permission for that guild

[stiff fern]

So I need to do reaction.emoji[0] or something?

[vale wing]

!d discord.on_reaction_add

[unkempt canyon]

discord.on\_reaction\_add

discord.on_reaction_add(reaction, user)```
Called when a message has a reaction added to it. Similar to [`on_message_edit()`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.on_message_edit "discord.on_message_edit"), if the message is not found in the internal message cache, then this event will not be called. Consider using [`on_raw_reaction_add()`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.on_raw_reaction_add "discord.on_raw_reaction_add") instead.

Note

To get the [`Message`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.Message "discord.Message") being reacted, access it via [`Reaction.message`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.Reaction.message "discord.Reaction.message").

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

Note

This doesn’t require [`Intents.members`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.Intents.members "discord.Intents.members") within a guild context, but due to Discord not providing updated user information in a direct message it’s required for direct messages to receive this event. Consider using [`on_raw_reaction_add()`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.on_raw_reaction_add "discord.on_raw_reaction_add") if you need this and do not otherwise want to enable the members intent.

[slate swan]

i dont know and i dont want to know

[stiff fern]

Is my way inefficient

[slate swan]

i didnt help but thats nice

[slate swan]

clear. but how to get it?

[vale wing]

You need to unpack the result

reaction, user = await bot.wait_for(...)```

[stiff fern]

o

[slate swan]

well your bot would need to be invited with such permissions for the intergrated bot role to have it

[vale wing]

Also why do you make your check function return str(reaction.emoji)?

Return is supposed to be bool

[stiff fern]

I was checking it here

 if reaction and str(reaction.emoji) == '![Yes](https://cdn.discordapp.com/emojis/986643084718796810.webp?size=128 "Yes")':
            print('Approved ')
            suggestion_embed.set_footer(text='Status: Accepted\n')
        elif reaction and str(reaction.emoji) == '![No](https://cdn.discordapp.com/emojis/986643106835353691.webp?size=128 "No")':
            print('Rejected')
            suggestion_embed.set_footer(text='Status: Rejected\n')

[slate swan]

it would still be true

[stiff fern]

reaction.emoji is suppose to be the emoji id

[slate swan]

since its not an empty string but thats not really your point

[stiff fern]

reaction was suppose to be the bool

Idk I guess its all a mess now lol

[slate swan]

It just gives me an error when writing the command

[vale wing]

The check function is supposed to tell the wait_for what event is "correct" and should be returned

[stiff fern]

def check(reaction, user):
            return str(reaction.emoji) #and reaction.message == suggestion_embed

        reaction, user = await interaction.client.wait_for('reaction_add', check=check)

        print(reaction)
        print(isinstance(reaction, tuple))

        if reaction and str(reaction.emoji) == '![Yes](https://cdn.discordapp.com/emojis/986643084718796810.webp?size=128 "Yes")':
            print('Approved ')
            suggestion_embed.set_footer(text='Status: Accepted\n')
        elif reaction and str(reaction.emoji) == '![No](https://cdn.discordapp.com/emojis/986643106835353691.webp?size=128 "No")':
            print('Rejected')
            suggestion_embed.set_footer(text='Status: Rejected\n')

So this is the whole thing basically, aren't I doing that with

reaction, user = await interaction.client.wait_for('reaction_add', check=check)
``` except I didnt include the user

[slate swan]

you would need an instance of the Guild class

since its a method of the Guild class as show in the documentation

[stiff fern]

So I would check the user and emoji inside that function?

[slate swan]

Context has a guild property if thats what youre looking for

[vale wing]

str(reaction.emoji) will basically always be true as okimii said

[slate swan]

!d discord.ext.commands.Context.guild

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ext.commands.Context.guild

Returns the guild associated with this context’s command. None if not available.

[vale wing]

Yeah

[stiff fern]

o

[stiff fern]

So would that mean after reaction goes through the check it would return whatever the check returns, so I should be able to if reaction then its true

[slim spoke]

hey, is there a way to get the guild name right from the start when someone adds my bot?

[slate swan]

the check kwarg in the Bot.wait_for would need a function object which then it would call it internally and it would use the check function to check all upcoming given event names

[slate swan]

on_guild_join has a guild object just use Guild.name

!d discord.Guild.name

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Guild.name

The guild name.

[slim spoke]

found this website but I don't understand how to use it'

[slate swan]

the documentation?

[slim spoke]

yes

it gives the command itself but then what

[slate swan]

well its a reference for all the stuff in the library dpy

[slate swan]

pardon?

[cerulean folio]

what the heck u saying ! You gave me so much docs and tips since yesterday !

[slate swan]

good to hear😅❤️

[vale wing]

wait_for starts listening for the events of the specified type and parses the event's arguments to check function. If it returns True, the wait_for returns arguments of the received event, if False it just keeps listening until it finds a matching event or a timeout exceeds

[slate swan]

exenifix you explained it way better than me #discord-bots message

😭

[vale wing]

😳

[slate swan]

🙄

im bad at explaining

[slim spoke]

something like this but it's not quite right

async def on_guild_join()
    server = guild.name

[vale wing]

I am studying pedagogy so don't judge yourself

[slate swan]

you forgot the guild argument that will be passed to the function when called

[haughty nova]

end = datetime.datetime.utcnow() + datetime.timedelta(seconds = mins*60)```
where I live is the time UTC + 2 hours, how should I fix that?

[slate swan]

thats nice

[slim spoke]

oh I think I got it, I'll check

[vale wing]

If you use utc for everything there shouldn't be any problems

[haughty nova]

but when i write the commands it says that the giveaway stops in 2 hours back

[vale wing]

Then try using now()

[stiff fern]

So how would I edit a message footer, because it's not apart of discord.Embed and just setting a new footer didn't seem to work

[slate swan]

!d discord.Embed.remove_footer

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Embed.remove\_footer

remove_footer()```
Clears embed’s footer information.

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

New in version 2.0.

[stiff fern]

ah

[slim spoke]

@slate swan I got this error: TypeError: on_guild_join() missing 1 required positional argument: 'guild'
for this code: ```py
@client.event
async def on_guild_join(ctx,guild):
server = guild.name
print(server)
games_in_progress[guild.name] = False
print("Server added to the list")
await ctx.message.send()

tried to add (guild=None): but then I got this error: AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'name'

[slate swan]

ctxisnt a valid argument

[slate swan]

the event doesnt have Context

you would need to remove it

    @commands.command(aliases = "123")
    async def counter(sefl, ctx: commands.Context, filename: str):
        """Starts a counter for pressing."""
        with open(filename, "rb") as image:

        await ctx.guild.create_custom_emoji( name = "name", image = img_byte, reason=None)

Dear please tell me what is wrong

[dense swallow]

cant u re-call it?

[slate swan]

it has to be a list

[stiff fern]

I tried to but it didnt work

[slate swan]

  @commands.command(aliases = "123")

you need put the string in a list @slate swan

[slim spoke]

to async def on_guild_join()? how do you get the guild name then?

[dense swallow]

can u show me how u tried

[wicked atlas]

Your bot token is in that image

[slate swan]

it accepts only a Guild instance object so just use that

[stiff fern]

sure gimme a sec

[dense swallow]

k

Well this is what Im doing now, before I just didnt have suggestion_embed.remove_footer() but it doesn't work either way so I prob messed something up lol

i dont get errors tho so

[slate swan]

you forgot the f before the string

[slate swan]

oh

[wicked atlas]

asyncio.sleep() takes the number of seconds, just so you know. Not minutes

[haughty nova]

ok

[slim spoke]

how do you use Guild object?

[slate swan]

    @commands.command()
    async def counter(sefl, ctx: commands.Context, filename: str):
        """Starts a counter for pressing."""
        with open(filename, "rb") as image:
            img_byte = image.read("./Железо.png")
        await ctx.send('Press!', view=Counter(ctx.author.id))
        await ctx.guild.create_custom_emoji( name = "name", image = img_byte, reason=None)

Dear please tell me what is wrong

[slate swan]

you can use the property name

[haughty nova]

I am new to python so where? I can't find it

[slate swan]

well youre missing the filename argument

[sick birch]

You forgot the filename argument when calling it from discord

[slate swan]

await ctx.send("Tillykke! {winner.mention} du vant {prize}!")

here, in f strings you must add an f before the string to make it an f string so before the quotes

[wicked atlas]

!strings

[unkempt canyon]

Creating a Python string with your variables using the + operator can be difficult to write and read. F-strings (format-strings) make it easy to insert values into a string. If you put an f in front of the first quote, you can then put Python expressions between curly braces in the string.

>>> snake = "pythons"
>>> number = 21
>>> f"There are {number * 2} {snake} on the plane."
"There are 42 pythons on the plane."

Note that even when you include an expression that isn't a string, like number * 2, Python will convert it to a string for you.

[haughty nova]

await ctx.send(f"Tillykke! {winner.mention} du vant {prize}!")```
ah so like this?

[dense swallow]

ok after setting ur embed footer, overwrite it as another em footer.. in ur case, it'd be: ```py

suggestion_embed.set_footer(text='Status: Pending\n')

rest of the code...

    def check(reaction, user):
        if str(reaction.emoji) == ':Yes:':
            suggestion_embed.set_footer(text='Status: Accepted\n')
            await suggestion_msg.edit(embed=suggestion_embed)
            return True
        elif str(reaction.emoji) == ':No:':
            suggestion_embed.set_footer(text='Status: Rejected\n')
            await suggestion_msg.edit(embed=suggestion_embed)
            return False

[slate swan]

await ctx.send(f"Tillykke! {winner.mention} du vant {prize}!")

like so, you see the f before the quotes

[haughty nova]

yes

i just forgot tho put it inside the message i sent

[slate swan]

well thats how you make a string an f string

[haughty nova]

thank you

[slate swan]

ah ok

[cerulean folio]

nevermind i fixed it sorry

[stiff fern]

Im not able to use await inside the def check bc of some its not in a async function even tho it is

[dense swallow]

im trying to make pagination for my help command using discord-ext-menus and im getting this error (given in screenshot)
code: https://paste.pythondiscord.com/uwugesikuz

[dense swallow]

make it async def

[stiff fern]

oh im stupid

lol

[dense swallow]

lol

[slate swan]

🥺

    @commands.command()
    async def counter(sefl, ctx: commands.Context, filename: str, name: str):
        """Starts a counter for pressing."""
        with open(filename, "rb") as image:
            img_byte = image.read("./Железо.png")
            name = "123"
        await ctx.send('Press!', view=Counter(ctx.author.id))
        await ctx.guild.create_custom_emoji( name = name, image = img_byte, reason=None)

[potent spear]

you should set the footer AFTER the check, not inside
make the check only return a boolean, don't change embed stuff in there

[stiff fern]

oh alright, so would I just do

if reaction == True then:

else:

[potent spear]

return str(reaction.emoji) == "Yes"

[haughty nova]

hmm it still doesn't end the giveaway but

[haughty nova]

can it have something to de with the utc and my time is utc + 2?

[potent spear]

same for you
#discord-bots message

[slate swan]

you forgot the invoke the command with the filename argument

and the argument use for class instances is named self not sefl

so theirs a typo

[lost lichen]

if i have a slash command in a cog do i still need to use the self arg? disnake

[slate swan]

yes so its in the cog

[haughty nova]

i dont really understand

[lost lichen]

great thanks

[slate swan]

I indicated (

    async def counter(sefl, ctx: commands.Context, filename: str, name: str):

        with open(filename, "rb") as image:
            img_byte = image.read("./Железо.png")

[slate swan]

yes and you invoked the command without the 2 arguments so it was invoked like so <prefix>counter

[stiff fern]

        def check(reaction, user):
            return str(reaction.emoji) == ":Yes:"
            #if str(reaction.emoji) == ':Yes:':
            #    suggestion_embed.set_footer(text='Status: Accepted')
            #    await suggestion_msg.edit(embed=suggestion_embed)
            #    return True
            #elif str(reaction.emoji) == ':No:':
            #    suggestion_embed.set_footer(text='Status: Rejected')
            #    await suggestion_msg.edit(embed=suggestion_embed)
            #    return False

        reaction, user = await interaction.client.wait_for('reaction_add', check=check)

        if reaction == True:
            print("True")
        else:
            print("False")

Well here's what I tried, I commented everything else out just to keep it simple but it doesn't print anything

[slate swan]

So what to do?(((🥺

[slate swan]

you invoked the command with the arguments <prefix>counter <filename> <name>

as shown in your parameters

[potent spear]

print inside the check

[stiff fern]

Oh now it prints I guess I was just crazy or forgot to rerun, It just prints false so I just gotta fix the formatting

I tried "" and "Yes" but I guess I have to use the id

[scarlet aurora]

how can I make an argument to suit a string like "like this"

[wicked atlas]

what is "this"?

[scarlet aurora]

a string consisting of spaces

[wicked atlas]

async def my_command(ctx, arg1, arg2, *, rest_of_input):

Or, you can use "" around the arguments

[wicked atlas]

https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/stable/faq.html#why-do-my-arguments-require-quotes

[slate swan]

Damn, it says here that it’s necessary, but I don’t understand how to write it to work (

[slate swan]

its only necessary in your case to open such file, so you would need to provide the name

[slate swan]

Still an error

    @commands.command()
    async def counter(self, ctx: commands.Context, image):
        """Starts a counter for pressing."""
        
        img_byte = image.read("./Железо.png")
        name = "123"
        
        await ctx.send('Press!', view=Counter(ctx.author.id))
        await ctx.guild.create_custom_emoji( name = "name", image = img_byte, reason=None)

😅

youre calling the command as <prefix>counter

so youre forgetting the image argument and it wont work

image must be a bytes object and not a string

[cerulean folio]

I'd like to make a form using a bot, where the bot will ask a question, and wait for an answer.
Since it's all based on async functions I go pretty lost.
Usually I'd have done things like declaring all my functions, and then:

data = dict()
data = question_n(question_3(question_2(question_1(data))))

or just something like:

data = dict()
for i in range(questions): # where questions is the list of questions
  print(question[i])
  input(data[i])

or anything like that

But with async I can't do all this, it's still confusing me

[slate swan]

!d discord.ext.commands.Bot.wait_for

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ext.commands.Bot.wait\_for

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

Waits for a WebSocket event to be dispatched.

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

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

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

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

[slate swan]

you can use this and wait for a message

[cerulean folio]

Mmmh... what about buttons?

[slate swan]

you can use buttons yes

[cerulean folio]

Okie I'll see what I can do

[slate swan]

i recommend to not hard code it much and check the documentation before doing anything its good to know what resources you have on hand!

[jaunty sparrow]

Hey everyone. How do I edit a message by pressing the button attached to it? according to the Discord API this seems like a proper type of response, but I can't seem to find a way to do it with discord.py. I tried Interaction.edit_original_message but that gave me an error, and the only thing that worked so far is editing the message normally and then deferring the response

[slate swan]

@slate swanFinally I did it. works. thank you so much for suffering so much with me

    @commands.command()
    async def counter(self, ctx: commands.Context):
        """Starts a counter for pressing."""
        with open("Железо.png", "rb") as image:
            f = image.read()
            b = bytearray(f)
        await ctx.send('Press!', view=Counter(ctx.author.id))
        await ctx.guild.create_custom_emoji( name = "name", image = b, reason=None)

youre welcome

[slate swan]

what was the error?

[jaunty sparrow]

discord.errors.NotFound: 404 Not Found (error code: 10015): Unknown Webhook

[slate swan]

well Interaction.edit_original_message did not raise that error, a method that can return a Webhook object is Interaction.followup

which returns a Webhook object and then you can use Webhook.send ive seen this error many time, do i know the problem well maybe you tried to use the Webhook many times or your bot got disconnected from the gateway not sure

[jaunty sparrow]

From the traceback it was definitely that method. Interactions are just webhooks under the hood so it does make sense

[slate swan]

well not quite

iirc you can only respond to and interaction once which is a discord limitation and the other response's are just Webhooks created yes

!d discord.Guild.delete_emoji

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Guild.delete\_emoji

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

Deletes the custom [`Emoji`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.Emoji "discord.Emoji") from the guild.

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

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

[slate swan]

/ and * Why are they?...

[slate swan]

/ makes all arguments before positional only and * makes all arguments after keyword only

[stiff fern]

So im trying to dm the user

await interaction.response.send_message(user, 'Test')

And it says it only takes 1 to 2 positional arguments but 3 were given

Idk if it works the same way with interaction

[slate swan]

@jaunty sparrow a good solution is to pass Context to the view class

[jaunty sparrow]

!d discord.InteractionResponse.send_message

[unkempt canyon]

discord.InteractionResponse.send\_message

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

Responds to this interaction by sending a message.

[jaunty sparrow]

You don't pick the user, it'll send it where the original message is

[slate swan]

and then just using Context.Message to get an instance of a Message object and then using Message.edit

[stiff fern]

So what would I use to dm a user

[jaunty sparrow]

user.send

[slate swan]

if you want the user of the interaction it would be Interaction.user

[stiff fern]

I was going to do that but .send didn't autocomplete which is usually a sign it wont work 😅

[stiff fern]

ty

Thats what I needed :D

[jaunty sparrow]

yep, like I mentioned editing normally and deferring the response does work, but it's an extra API request and editing the message as the response should be possible

[cerulean folio]

async def yes_callback(message, client, data, interaction):
  if interaction.user == message.author: # checks if clicker is asker
    await interaction.response.edit_message(content="Selected Yes", view = None)
    data['response'] = 0
    await next_step(message, client, data) # triggers next question
    return True


async def select_anonymous(message, client, data):
  select_yes = Button(label ='Yes', style = discord.ButtonStyle.green)
  select_yes.callback = yes_callback
  view = View()
  view.add_item(select_yes)
  await message.channel.send('Do you love me?', view = view)

This is a trigger for a command. The bot will ask a question, and the user that ran the command has to answer.
You see how the next question is triggered? It's a bit sus I'd like to change that. I'd like to put both these functions in a bigger one, and make it return True is user clicks, and False if users writes 'cancel'. So then I can call that one big function to make the questionnaire.

Can someone help me?

[slate swan]

await delete_emoji(emoji, /, *, reason=None)
emoji then how to write? ID: 123: 986743768231321621

[slate swan]

yeah

[slate swan]

the emoji argument must be a Emoji object

What is it like?😳

[slate swan]

@jaunty sparrow sorry i about the confusion, i thought you had an issue editing the message so that was my mistake, your real issue as i checked again is sending a follow up message which you can use Interaction.send which it checks if the Interaction can be used or a Webhook https://github.com/DisnakeDev/disnake/blob/master/disnake/interactions/base.py#L285-L292 if the 404 http error gets raised it means the api has probably closed the webhook

[unkempt canyon]

disnake/interactions/base.py lines 285 to 292

def followup(self) -> Webhook:
    """:class:`​Webhook`​: Returns the follow up webhook for follow up interactions."""
    payload = {
        "id": self.application_id,
        "type": WebhookType.application.value,
        "token": self.token,
    }
    return Webhook.from_state(data=payload, state=self._state)```

[jaunty sparrow]

I am trying to edit the message 😄

[slate swan]

😵‍💫

[jaunty sparrow]

I used interaction.message.edit and then interaction.response.defer, and that achieved what I wanted, it's just that from my understanding there should be a way to do it in one go

[slate swan]

and if you dont defer the response the issue is the 404?

[jaunty sparrow]

If I don't defer the interaction just fails

The 404 is when I try to use interaction.edit_original_message

[slate swan]

well thats not really raising the error the real 404 is only raising by Interaction.followup

ive seen such a problem many times but ive never really seen solutions over using defer

[jaunty sparrow]

await interaction.user.send(self.title, "test")

Says send() takes from 1 to 2 positional arguments but 3 were given and all I've really learned from that is that usually its because I need to add some kind of embed= or check= or something but I don't think that works here

[jaunty sparrow]

I see. Thanks for the help!

[scarlet aurora]

    @commands.command()
    async def automessage(self, ctx, message = None, time = None):
        if message is None:
            await ctx.send("Please choose a message")
        if time is None:
            await ctx.send("Please choose a time")

        time_string = time
        date_time = datetime.strptime(time_string, "%H:%M:%S")
        
        seconds = datetime.strptime(time_string, time) 

        await ctx.send(f"Set to {seconds} from now")

        while True:
            await asyncio.sleep(seconds)
            await ctx.send(message)``` How can I make it so that when you choose a time (Example: 4:20) every day at 4:20 military time it sends a message?

[jaunty sparrow]

@stiff fernLook back to this signature. It takes one positional argument which is the content, the rest is by keywords

[slate swan]

        await ctx.guild.delete_emoji(discord.Emoji(), /, *, reason=None)

what to write there?

[stiff fern]

So the content would be the text and the keyword would be the user?

[slate swan]

tell me pleace

[jaunty sparrow]

The user is already supplied because you do user.

[stiff fern]

o

[scarlet aurora]

?

[jaunty sparrow]

So the question is why are you trying to use both self.title and "test". You want them both to be in the message?

[stiff fern]

I got rid of self.title and it worked, I didn't realize user in the statement would already translate to that actually being the user, I thought I had to put their tag or something so it would know who to message

thank ya:)

[jaunty sparrow]

The way I would do this is by creating a task that loops at the designated time with https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ext/tasks/index.html?highlight=loop#discord.ext.tasks.loop

[scarlet aurora]

but the designated time is a variable

set by the user who uses the command

[jaunty sparrow]

Hmm you could call loop() within the command and supply it the function that sends the message

[slate swan]

well im not sure the root of the problem, i would need to check the source code more, because i really dont see how defer would help it, because it cant find the Webhook as shown but maybe Interaction gets overwritten by a Webhook object im not really sure😭

[jaunty sparrow]

of course, this assumes your bot is always up. Otherwise you'll need to store the time in a database for it to persist across restarts

[slate swan]

e = ctx.emoji.id("123")

Dear, how to find out emoji id?

[jaunty sparrow]

No worries, I'll settle for a roundabout solution for now 😄

Thanks again

[slate swan]

sorry if i confused your problem with another because ive seen this same error with users using Interaction.followup which makes a webhook and its the same issue and the same thing solves it

time to dig into dpys source😔

[jaunty sparrow]

Yeah I asked on the dpy server as well and people weren't sure there either

[indigo pilot]

Hey, im just wondering if theres any way to edit a message twice. normally i could just make the msg a var and then message.edit but the org message is outside of the button, and the message gets edited twice inside the button so im not sure what to do, as you cant use response.edit_message twice

[slate swan]

interesting maybe its the api or the wrapper

[livid hinge]

looks different.. there didn't used to be color at least

[slate swan]

is that replit or?

[cerulean folio]

def button_check(m):
    return m.content.lower() == cancel

async def button_callback(message, client, data, interaction):
  if interaction.user == message.author:
    clicked = await interaction.response.edit_message(content="Clicked !", view = None)
    cancel = await client.wait_for('message', check=button_check)
    if clicked or cancel:
      if clicked:
        return True
      else:
        return False

So... I guess this will return True if the button is clicked, and False is the word 'cancel' is written before the button gets clicked right?
I don't really know how to test it

actually

I'll edit it, hang on

I guess this is it?

[sick birch]

Your button callback as way too many arguments

[slate swan]

what?

[sick birch]

Assuming this is a regular button callback from discord.py

[cerulean folio]

Yeah I'll delete some :o

[slate swan]

Someone had this problem on windows it works normally but not on linux?

[sick birch]

Button callbacks take self, the view, button, the actual discord.ui.Button instance, and interaction, a discord.Interaction instance

[sick birch]

Can you post your code?

Also what fork is this? Not familiar with it

[cerulean folio]

I didn't get what you mean

[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.

[sick birch]

The function being decorated should have three parameters, self representing the discord.ui.View, the discord.Interaction you receive and the discord.ui.Button being pressed.
source: https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/interactions/api.html?highlight=discord ui button#discord.ui.button

can you print the full exception by doing raise e?

[slate swan]

?

[sick birch]

The current exception doesn't tell us much

We need the full traceback

and the way you have your error handler set up doesn't allow viewing entire traceback (which you should always do, by using traceback library)

[slate swan]

what else can I write, the bot works without a problem on windows but the problem appears when I want to run it on linux and I am not able to locate the error

I can't write anything else ;/

[sick birch]

Try raise e to get the full traceback

except Exception as e:
        raise e
        print(f"\n>> Something went wrong, please check the error!\n>> Error: {e}")
        input()

[slate swan]

wait

[slate swan]

that would never print

remember raise is like the return keyword it ends execution

[sick birch]

Yes, but it gets the job done

We get the actual traceback which is important in this case

[slate swan]

@sick birch yes?

[sick birch]

Using traceback library and setting up properly error handling can come later

[sick birch]

yes

[slate swan]

run linux?

[slate swan]

yes but why the useless print if its never going to be reached😭

[sick birch]

Yes

[sick birch]

Because we're just troubleshooting/debugging

[slate swan]

i get that, but why the print and input?

[stiff fern]

So I think my bots wait_for('reaction_add' is reacting to its own add_reaction methods? Idk why it just started doing it all of a sudden is that like a normal thing that happens

[sick birch]

Dunno, was already there, didn't mess with it

[sick birch]

That would happen if you add the reaction after your wait_for

[slate swan]

you couldve said that😭

[sick birch]

Did you run that on linux?

Doesn't look like it unless your SSHing from command prompt

[slate swan]

yes

[slate swan]

use ssh

[stiff fern]

Well I have it = to it no?

def check(reaction, user):
            if str(reaction.emoji) == "![Yes](https://cdn.discordapp.com/emojis/986643084718796810.webp?size=128 "Yes")":
                return 'True'

            elif str(reaction.emoji) == "![No](https://cdn.discordapp.com/emojis/986643106835353691.webp?size=128 "No")":
                return 'False'

reaction, user = await interaction.client.wait_for('reaction_add', check=check)

if check(reaction, user) == 'True':

elif check(reaction, user) == 'False':
  # The code here is firing before any reaction role is used (Except for the ones the bot adds)

[slate swan]

Why all time i have this problem?

[sick birch]

🤔 never seen that error before

[slate swan]

me too

[sick birch]

You're uh, not doing that right

[slate swan]

there is nothing on the internet either....

[sick birch]

Replit

[stiff fern]

o

[sick birch]

You're getting ratelimited/blocked from discord

[slate swan]

And where i can put my code?

@sick birch maybe we can find a fix

[sick birch]

Popular editors/IDEs include vscode, pycharm, atom (deprecated), sublime text, vim, emacs, etc

[sick birch]

Maybe, not sure though since it's not an issue with your code

This is why you usually dockerize your applications so you don't run into issues like these

[slate swan]

i want online coding site

and u know Alternative?

i tried on another linux and it has the same problem....

[sick birch]

Why online?

Editors/IDEs are infinetely better than any online code platform as you're still gonna have the same issues

[slate swan]

ah okay man

Thank you

[stiff fern]

How am I suppose to do it

[sick birch]

Return a boolean from check, not a Literal['True', 'False'], and don't call the check directly

[stiff fern]

Oh, well no I tried that but it didn't work for some reason

And I dont know how else you would get the return value without calling the check directly

I tried doing if reaction but that didnt work either

[granite moat]

Not really a discord bot, but uses the discord API so I'd imagine this is the best place to ask, I'm working on this app it uses discord OAuth, anybody know how to detect when someone deauthorizes from the app through discord?

I was guessing there'd be something on the INTERACTIONS ENDPOINT URL but I set that up and don't seem to see any requests when I deauth.

[slate swan]

this is not really the channel as you said, but you can ask here #965291516031549500

[granite moat]

Ah alright thank you!

[slate swan]

👍

[granite moat]

I think this is the first time I've used a thread lol

[stiff fern]

        def check(reaction, user):
            if str(reaction.emoji) == "![Yes](https://cdn.discordapp.com/emojis/986643084718796810.webp?size=128 "Yes")":
                return True

            elif str(reaction.emoji) == "![No](https://cdn.discordapp.com/emojis/986643106835353691.webp?size=128 "No")":
                return False

        reaction, user = await interaction.client.wait_for('reaction_add', check=check)

        if reaction == True:

        elif reaction == False:

@slate swan do you by chance know how Im suppose to do this

Because this doesn't really work 😬

[granite moat]

Oof it's awfully quiet there lol

[slate swan]

dang😭

[slate swan]

well you cant really compare an object to boolean

remember Bot.wait_for returns objects of the given event

[stiff fern]

So how would I get the result of check if not referencing it directly

[slate swan]

the result is really the variable reference to the coroutine

because the check function is just use to check upcoming events which then it would return the object if the passed function in the check kwarg returns True meaning that is the object that youre looking for

[stiff fern]

so I have to use some format kwarg thing

[slate swan]

@sick birch mmmm

maybe threading error

[potent spear]

your thought process of what wait_for does is not completely correct

[slate swan]

not at all you would need to check the object so just make it a string and check the format of it and do what ever

[stiff fern]

wait_for returns a tuple of some random properties when the event reaction_add is fired and then uses the check to return a value based off whatever Im checking in that tuple?

thats how im thinking about it

[slate swan]

Bro, When i creating my bot in the visual studio code. where is monitor link ? for hosting

@sick birch

vsc doesnt have a host option like replit

[stiff fern]

Would reaction.emoji be the object in question?

[slate swan]

And When i creating bot with visual studio code. then i cant hosting?

[sick birch]

yeah that was a given from the start haha

[stiff fern]

use github

push files

i use vscode and can host (not from vscode)

[sick birch]

vsc isn't for hosting, only text editing. See #965291480992321536 pins for more on hosting

[slate swan]

free?

[stiff fern]

yes

[slate swan]

yes as reaction is the result of the Bot.wait_for which returns a Reaction object

[sick birch]

Some have free tiers, yes

[slate swan]

and what's next 🤔

[sick birch]

Maybe consider dockerizing your bot?

[cerulean folio]

async def add(message, client):
  data = dict()
  tasks = [
  await select_subject(message, client, data),
  await select_reporter(message, client, data)
  ]
  for task in tasks:
    if not task:
      await message.channel.send('Cancelled')
    else:
      await message.channel.send(task)
    task.cancel()
  await message.channel.send('Finished !')

It's not working correctly, I'm not achieving the result I want :(

[slate swan]

@sick birch free hosting?

[sick birch]

Reputable cloud service providers have free tiers, yes, e.g oracle, aws, etc

[stiff fern]

So should I put the if statement inside the check then

Or else why return it ?

[slate swan]

no outside of it

[slate swan]

I wanted it on a raspberry pi :/

[sick birch]

just return str(reaction.emoji) == ":Yes:", that's all you need

[wicked atlas]

Still useful to dockerize it

[sick birch]

discord won't let me paste the actual emoji but you get the point

[sick birch]

You can and should still dockerize it

[stiff fern]

That's going to return True but I'm not connecting how I actually get that "True" to the if statement,

Like for functions I would do

local function Add(Num1, Num2)
  return Num1 + Num2
end

And then I could just do

if Add == 4 then
  print('Pass')
end

But it doesn't seem like it works the same way here bc you said not to reference it directly

[sick birch]

The only thing you should do with the check function is pass it into the wait_for, after that don't mess with it, don't touch it or call it manually

You were calling the check function manually which is the incorrect way to use it

[stiff fern]

right, so what do I put in the if statement

if something == True:

Well I guess what I'm asking is what it returning to lol

[sick birch]

you don't even need the if statement, the check function can be done in one line

return str(reaction.emoji) == "your emoji here"

[stiff fern]

That goes in the check

[sick birch]

Yes:

def check(reaction, user):
  return str(reaction.emoji) == "your emoji here"

simple as that, nothing needed

heck you can even pass it in as a lambda if you want

[stiff fern]

But then how would I do the portion of code that relies on what emoji was used

So im looking at this right, so where it has await channel.send is what Im basically trying to do

[sick birch]

the wait_for only returns if the check passes

[potent spear]

wait_for returns the exact same args as your check function takes

[sick birch]

so you can assume if you've gotten past the wait_for the emoji was the one you expected

[stiff fern]

So that code basically stops at that point till you get the reaction

That's what I was confused about, I was thinking it would just continue past it or something

[sick birch]

Yes, and only goes on if check returns True

[stiff fern]

👍

        try:
            reaction, user = await interaction.client.wait_for('reaction_add', check=check)
        except: 
            suggestion_embed.set_footer(text='Status: Accepted')
            await suggestion_message.edit(embed=suggestion_embed)

            suggestion_channel = interaction.guild.get_channel(986755419894579261) or await interaction.guild.fetch_channel(986755419894579261)
            suggestion_message = await suggestion_channel.send(embed=suggestion_embed)

            await suggestion_message.add_reaction('![UpVote](https://cdn.discordapp.com/emojis/986643126796042320.webp?size=128 "UpVote")')
            await suggestion_message.add_reaction('![DownVote](https://cdn.discordapp.com/emojis/986643070864994416.webp?size=128 "DownVote")')
        else:

            suggestion_embed.set_footer(text='Status: Rejected')
            await suggestion_message.edit(embed=suggestion_embed)
            
            await interaction.user.send("Your request was denied.")

So here's what I'm trying

Im trying to make it where you can basically react to the request to approve or deny it, right now it'll reject it if I press the check and do nothing if I press the x

If I put the portion of code that would react to True inside of the try: it'll accept regardless because it's just trying it right so Im tryna figure out how I can get it to work with both basically lol

[cerulean folio]

can someone help me with my very very last struggle in #🤡help-banana pleaaase?

[karmic marsh]

alright... I need to send a view with 'Yes' and 'No' buttons, and then I need to perform an action based on which was pressed

how would I do that?

Here's my (nonworking) attempt:

[azure nebula]

import discord
from discord import app_commands
from discord.ext import commands
from discord import member


bot = commands.Bot(command_prefix='!')
bot.remove_command('help')

@bot.event()
async def on_ready():
  print("Im online.")
  await bot.change_presence(activity=discord.Game(name="Use !ban"))

@bot.command()
async def ban(ctx, member: discord.Member, *, reason=None):
    member = ctx.message.member
    await ctx.member.send(f"Has sido descalificado!")
    await member.ban(reason=reason)
    await ctx.reply(f'{member} ha sido descalificado!')``` why is this not working

[karmic marsh]

view = disnake.ui.View()
view.add_item(NoButton())
view.add_item(YesButton())
await inter.response.edit_message(f"The color named \"{inter.text_values['name']}\" already exists, but its hex code is {(format(colors[inter.text_values['name']], '#08X')).removeprefix('0X')}.\n Would you like to set the hex code for \"{inter.text_values['name']}\" to \"{inter.text_values['hex']}\"?", view=view)
if view: # This does not work
        colors[inter.text_values['name']] = int(inter.text_values['hex'], 16)
        json.dump(colors, open('colors.json', 'w'))
        await setcolor(self, inter.text_values['name'])
#

    def __init__(self):
        super().__init__(label="No", style=disnake.ButtonStyle.grey)
    async def callback(self,inter):
        return False

class YesButton(disnake.ui.Button):
    def __init__(self):
        super().__init__(label="Yes", style=disnake.ButtonStyle.grey)
    async def callback(self,inter):
        return True

[azure nebula]

???

[karmic marsh]

the error message tells you exactly what is wrong

you need to specify the bot's intents

bot = commands.Bot(command_prefix='!', intents = (INTENTS GO HERE))

[dusky pine]

intents=disnake.Intents.default()

🙂

[karmic marsh]

except this isn't disnake

discord.Intents.default()

although it looks like all it does is ban

[azure nebula]

It’s a temporary bot for a ban royale

[karmic marsh]

so you could probably use discord.Intents.bans()

[azure nebula]

Ok

[karmic marsh]

oh, you may need discord.Intents.messages() too

[azure nebula]

So how should it be

intents = (discord.Intents.random(), discord.Intents.random2())

that’s how it should go?

[slate swan]

random is not an intent.

[azure nebula]

its an example

but should it be like that but with valid intents or what?

[slate swan]

!intents like this

[unkempt canyon]

Using intents in discord.py

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

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

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

from discord import Intents
from discord.ext import commands

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

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

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

[azure nebula]

ok

[indigo pilot]

if i wasnt lazy i would

easier to just ask someone who knows

[karmic marsh]

fair enough lol

[indigo pilot]

i hate discord limits, max amount of questions, max amount of question char length

smh, and its so small for both

[azure nebula]

help

[karmic marsh]

stop doing that

[azure nebula]

what

[karmic marsh]

we saw it the first time

[azure nebula]

ok, sorry

[karmic marsh]

bot.event needs a required argument

try throwing self after on_ready(

[azure nebula]

async def on_ready(self):?

[karmic marsh]

I've done all my work in cogs so it's a bit different but that might work

[karmic marsh]

no, okay

maybe someone else knows better than I

[torn sail]

Remove () from @bot.event()

[karmic marsh]

are you actually running the bot?

bot.run(TOKEN)

at the end

[azure nebula]

i have py token = 'here_goes_token' bot.run(token)

[karmic marsh]

and you put your token?

[azure nebula]

yeah

[karmic marsh]

or do you literally have 'here_goes_token'

[azure nebula]

i've had bots before, they're not working anymore lol

[azure nebula]

im not that dumb

[karmic marsh]

okay lol

[lyric apex]

Paginator Docs?

[karmic marsh]

idk because this is exactly what I get when I use ctrl+c to stop the bot

[lyric apex]

!d discord.ext.commands.Paginator

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ext.commands.Paginator

class discord.ext.commands.Paginator(prefix='```', suffix='```', max_size=2000, linesep='\n')```
A class that aids in paginating code blocks for Discord messages.

len(x) Returns the total number of characters in the paginator.

[azure nebula]

?

[karmic marsh]

you're sure it's not working right?

[sick birch]

Modals don't have a concept of a "question"

You can fit different components, yes, but there isn't a "question" component

[indigo pilot]

idk what its called

[sick birch]

Text fields?

[indigo pilot]

i mean for forums

[azure nebula]

yeah

[indigo pilot]

yeah i guess text fields

[sick birch]

If you consider a text field to be a question, you can have 5 I believe

[karmic marsh]

I'm sorry, I really don't know then

[indigo pilot]

ah okay

[azure nebula]

i've had bots before and had them running, they're no longer working

they worked before without that intent thing

[karmic marsh]

oh, Robin, maybe you would know...

[azure nebula]

and when i add it it gives errors that i don't understand

[karmic marsh]

I want to perform an action based on the button that is pressed in this view

[sick birch]

Know what?

[karmic marsh]

I'm able to put the action in the callback of the button

but is it possible to just return a boolean based on which button was pressed instead?

like the code I linked, except functional lol

[sick birch]

Yes, actually a nice way to do it

https://github.com/Rapptz/discord.py/blob/master/examples/views/confirm.py see here, it's exactly what you want

[karmic marsh]

ah, okay

tyvm, that makes sense

now...

is there a better way to write this?

role = disnake.utils.get(inter.guild.roles, name=option)
if role is not None:
  if role.color != colors[option]:
    await role.delete()
role = disnake.utils.get(inter.guild.roles, name=option)
if role is None:
  role = await inter.guild.create_role(name=option, color=colors[option])

this code works, but seems clunky

I want to either:
> create the role if it doesn't exist
> set it if it does exist and is the right color, or
> delete it and recreate it with the correct color if it does exist but is the wrong color

it would be super clean except role.delete() doesn't set role to None

oh nvm, there's a role.edit() function

[sick birch]

You can use utils.get to find a role with multiple attributes, using logical AND

role = discord.utils.get(roles, name="role name", color=...)

[lyric apex]

How to purge bot messages in chat using channel history?

[sick birch]

if role is not None, then just assign that role, it exists and is the right color. else, check if a role with that name exists, but ignore color:

role = discord.utils.get(roles, name=...)

if role is not None, then delete it/edit it with the right color. else, create a new role entirely

[azure nebula]

i don't get why is this not working

[lyric apex]

Why did you pasted it 2 times

[azure nebula]

my bad

[sick birch]

Yes, but the concept is what applies

[sick birch]

I mean, the error kind of says what's wrong, don't you think?

[azure nebula]

no, im a noob

[lyric apex]

Something wrong with token!

[sick birch]

Look right at the middle here

[sick birch]

No, actually, it's something else entirely

[lyric apex]

Intents error

[azure nebula]

how do i fix it

[sick birch]

That's right, but I'd like them to reach that conclusion themselves so they learn how to read error messages

[sick birch]

It tells you

[lyric apex]

Also There is a link given there

[sick birch]

"Shard ID None is requesting privileged intents that have not been explicitly enabled in the developer portal. It is recommended to go to https://discord.com/developres/applications and explicitly enable the privileged intents within your application's page. If this is not possible, then consider disabling the privileged intents instead."

[azure nebula]

english isn't my main language, only think i get from that it's that i need to enable priviledged intents but idk where

[sick birch]

The link in the error message is a good starting point

[lyric apex]

Link is there

!d discord.TextChannel.purge

[unkempt canyon]

discord.TextChannel.purge

await purge(*, limit=100, check=..., before=None, after=None, around=None, oldest_first=False, bulk=True, reason=None)```
This function is a [*coroutine*](https://docs.python.org/3/library/asyncio-task.html#coroutine).

Purges a list of messages that meet the criteria given by the predicate `check`. If a `check` is not provided then all messages are deleted without discrimination.

You must have the [`manage_messages`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.Permissions.manage_messages "discord.Permissions.manage_messages") permission to delete messages even if they are your own. The [`read_message_history`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.Permissions.read_message_history "discord.Permissions.read_message_history") permission is also needed to retrieve message history.

Changed in version 2.0: The `reason` keyword-only parameter was added.

Examples

Deleting bot’s messages...

[sick birch]

You'd be interested in the check

[azure nebula]

i feel so dumb

[sick birch]

Don't beat yourself up over it, happens to all of us

[azure nebula]

imma google how to enable that

OH I GOT IT

[slate swan]

@lyric apex you should pass a function accepting a single discord.Message parameter into the check kwarg, and its return value determines whether or not the message specified will be deleted (if the return value is truthy, the message is deleted)

[azure nebula]

IT'S ON!

[lyric apex]

?

[lyric apex]

Got it i have to use check functions to detect the message type

[slate swan]

not the type

[lyric apex]

?

[slate swan]

well i think i know what you mean, it's just wrong terminology

[lyric apex]

If I want to delete embed i have detect that

[slate swan]

Example from docs

def is_me(m):
    return m.author == client.user

deleted = await channel.purge(limit=100, check=is_me)
await channel.send(f'Deleted {len(deleted)} message(s)')

[slate swan]

m is a discord.Message object, and the function returns True if the message's author is the bot user

[lyric apex]

Lemmie Get into docs guessing is a bad idea i think*

[slate swan]

no lol i don't need help

[lyric apex]

He was helping out i think you didn't read the messages!

[azure nebula]

so it's responding now because i enabled this 3 things which i don't know if i should've turned all of them on

but the !ban @user doesn't work

[rich otter]

what

[lyric apex]

Errors?

[azure nebula]

im sorry

[azure nebula]

no errors, it just doesn't work

[lyric apex]

member = ctx.message.member isn't required*

Coz you have an argument passed in def already

[slate swan]

and Message doesnt have a member attribute

[azure nebula]

still doesn't work

[lyric apex]

await member.send

not ctx

[slate swan]

show code

[lyric apex]

.

[azure nebula]

yeah

[lyric apex]

Make the changes which i said above

[slate swan]

show updated code*

[azure nebula]

this?

[lyric apex]

He didn't update anything he just turned on intents

[azure nebula]

it's the same code

[slate swan]

then change it because its screaming attribute errors

[azure nebula]

import discord
from discord import app_commands
from discord.ext import commands
from discord import member
from discord import Intents

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

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

    await member.ban(reason=reason)
    await ctx.reply(f'{member} ha sido descalificado!')

token = 'token_goes_here'
bot.run(token)```

[azure nebula]

updated code

[slate swan]

now

[lyric apex]

No

await ctx.member.send
#instead of it 
await member.send
#remove
member = ctx.message.member```

[azure nebula]

i did

[azure nebula]

.

[lyric apex]

Whats now?

[slate swan]

thats good but you should change the bots presence in the Bot constructor

and you should add a check so anybody cant use it

[lyric apex]

Not here in the code*

[slate swan]

!d discord.ext.commands.has_permissions

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ext.commands.has\_permissions

@discord.ext.commands.has_permissions(**perms)```
A [`check()`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.check "discord.ext.commands.check") that is added that checks if the member has all of the permissions necessary.

Note that this check operates on the current channel permissions, not the guild wide permissions.

The permissions passed in must be exactly like the properties shown under [`discord.Permissions`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.Permissions "discord.Permissions").

This check raises a special exception, [`MissingPermissions`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.MissingPermissions "discord.ext.commands.MissingPermissions") that is inherited from [`CheckFailure`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.CheckFailure "discord.ext.commands.CheckFailure").

[azure nebula]

i did

[azure nebula]

this is literally the code

[lyric apex]

did you restart it?

[azure nebula]

it's a bot designed so anyone can ban anyone

[azure nebula]

yea

[slate swan]

ah thats kinda funny and strange

[lyric apex]

No not like that

Anyone can misuse

[azure nebula]

??

ik anyone can ban any user

[slate swan]

thats the purpose of his bot

[azure nebula]

that's the purpose

[slate swan]

@azure nebula did you enable message content intents in your code?

kinda funny lol

[lyric apex]

He enabled all*

[slate swan]

enable intents.message_content

[azure nebula]

ok

[lyric apex]

But not in code

[slate swan]

Doesn't look like it

[lyric apex]

Yeah*

?tag intents=intents

[novel apex]

This is not a Modmail thread.

[slate swan]

if he actually said what was wrong it would be nice😔

[lyric apex]

Danny

[azure nebula]

it worked

[azure nebula]

bro there was no errors

[slate swan]

feedback lol

[lyric apex]

Guessing power doesn't work anymore

[slate swan]

So is your issue resolved?

and you should use the classmethod of Intents aka all()

since you activated all of them

You don't have to

[lyric apex]

Instead of default*

[slate swan]

yeah but he can lol

[lyric apex]

A time will come that he will again struggle for it so better than never

[slate swan]

They aren't using all the intents, no need to subscribe to unnecessary events.

Especially presences

[lyric apex]

(:

[slate swan]

he activated all intents so you can save a line or 2 ig

¯_(ツ)_/¯

I think next time it's better to help resolve the issue in a practical manner instead of trying to scrape for lines

[lyric apex]

):

[slate swan]

?

It's more than saving lines, more events are physically sent to your bot if you specify all()

i know lmao

Then don't suggest that

[lyric apex]

dont you think if he is creating a Perfect bot he will need them

[slate swan]

Presences? I certainly didn't.

we really dont know what he will do with his bots lmao

This is a pointless discussion

its his bot in the end of the day why would we care

[lyric apex]

Alr

[cerulean folio]

class AnonymousView(View):
    @discord.ui.button(label='Yes', style=discord.ButtonStyle.green, custom_id='yes')
    async def yes_callback(self, button, interaction):
      self.clear_items()
      await interaction.response.edit_message('Confirmed', view = self)

I'm getting an error: AttributeError: 'Button' object has no attribute 'response'
Someone knows why I'm getting this?

[sonic flax]

how would i get a users discord tag from their id?, for example if i did .find 123 it would print dew#9999 for example

[slate swan]

here your button is your interaction and your interaction is your button object so just switch them around

[slate swan]

you can just str the member and then just have a member argument

[cerulean folio]

I can't believe it ! thank you !

[slate swan]

👍

[sonic flax]

i mean if i want to do it on anyone tho

[spring flax]

so i get this interaction failed but no errors in terminal

[slate swan]

well you can do it with a member object and user objects

[stiff fern]

reaction.emoji = but it doesn't pass through the statement

[sonic flax]

i did bot.get_user(my id) and it says None

[karmic marsh]

how can I make slash command autofill strict?

currently I'm using a decorator:

@cog.autocomplete("cog")
    async def cog_autocomplete(self, inter, module):
        return list(self.bot.cogs)

[slate swan]

because the bot can only see users that are in the same guild as the bot

[karmic marsh]

but it allows the user to type items that aren't in the list

[sonic flax]

yeah im in it

[slate swan]

!intents

[unkempt canyon]

Using intents in discord.py

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

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

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

from discord import Intents
from discord.ext import commands

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

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

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

[short silo]

#help-pretzel any1 ?

[sonic flax]

what

[short silo]

Do you have intents enabled ?

[short silo]

But should it matter in fetching a member, it should not, i guess ?

[slate swan]

hes not fetching a member

hes getting the member from cache

[sonic flax]

no idea

[short silo]

I did not read then

[maiden fable]

U need 2.0 not 1.7

[sonic flax]

i just enabled it and it's not working

[maiden fable]

Add this to yr requirements.txt instead of discord.py- git+https://github.com/Rapptz/discord.py

[short silo]

I am using pycord btw

[maiden fable]

Weird then

[sonic flax]

bot.get_user(id) displays None

[slate swan]

you need to use the git version for py-cord too, its 1.7.3 on pypi

[sonic flax]

i enabled these 3 and it stilld oesn't work

[maiden fable]

Do u have members intent enabled in yr code?

[slate swan]

!pip py-cord

[unkempt canyon]

py-cord v1.7.3

A Python wrapper for the Discord API

[sonic flax]

No

[maiden fable]

Do it then

[sonic flax]

how

[short silo]

I am using

py-cord --pre in requirements

That wrong ?

[slate swan]

lemme check

[short silo]

Since it's installing the requirement, i would hope not

[maiden fable]

intents = discord.Intents.all() in yr bot constructor

[sonic flax]

bot constructor ??

wtf is that

[slate swan]

yeah it should work then

[short silo]

And with what if you don't have all intents enabled, you will get an error

[maiden fable]

bot = commands.Bot()

[sonic flax]

i did from discord import Intents
from discord.ext import commands

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

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

[maiden fable]

He has all intents

[short silo]

Doesnt

[maiden fable]

Hmm u already have it

[sonic flax]

ok

[sonic flax]

i dont have the discord.Intents.all() part i only have intents

[slate swan]

@sonic flax Can you show your code?

[slate swan]

works for me. i just installed pycord using the command you told, and imported Option

[sonic flax]

wait

im testing it to see if it worked

[short silo]

On heroku ?

[sonic flax]

ok it doesnt

[slate swan]

not heroku but another host, i used an eval command to install it

but that host has a heroku like environment so yeah

[short silo]

Well, heroku seems to not be able to find it

[sonic flax]

  else:
    if any("mm-4767" in channel.name for channel in ctx.guild.channels):
      ctx.send('Thia channel is currently open! Please type ``.close`` to close it.')
    else:
      channel = await guild.create_text_channel('mm-4767')
      channel = discord.utils.get(ctx.guild.channels, name='mm-4767')
      channel_id = channel.id
      test1 = bot.get_user(person1)
      test2 = bot.get_user(person2)
      await ctx.send(f'Channel created successfully! <#{channel_id}>')
      await channel.send(f"<@{person1}>, <@{person2}>")
      await channel.send(f'{test1}, {test2}')

[slate swan]

person1 and person2 will be str. either type-hint it to an int or use int(personx) for get_user()

@short silo are you using requirements.txt?

[short silo]

Yeah

[slate swan]

change py-cord --pre to py-cord==2.0.0rc1

Flags don't work in requirements.txt

[sonic flax]

Kk

[short silo]

Thanks

[lyric apex]

What is the method of getting command

[slate swan]

Bot.get_command ez

!d discord.ext.commands.Bot.get_command

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ext.commands.Bot.get\_command

get_command(name, /)```
Get a [`Command`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.Command "discord.ext.commands.Command") from the internal list of commands.

This could also be used as a way to get aliases.

The name could be fully qualified (e.g. `'foo bar'`) will get the subcommand `bar` of the group command `foo`. If a subcommand is not found then `None` is returned just as usual.

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

[lyric apex]

So using that i want to make a help command that works automatically is that worthy?

[slate swan]

Hi

!d discord.ext.commands.Context.send_help this exists btw

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ext.commands.Context.send\_help

await send_help(entity=<bot>)```
This function is a [*coroutine*](https://docs.python.org/3/library/asyncio-task.html#coroutine).

Shows the help command for the specified entity if given. The entity can be a command or a cog.

If no entity is given, then it’ll show help for the entire bot.

If the entity is a string, then it looks up whether it’s a [`Cog`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.Cog "discord.ext.commands.Cog") or a [`Command`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.Command "discord.ext.commands.Command").

Note

Due to the way this function works, instead of returning something similar to [`command_not_found()`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.HelpCommand.command_not_found "discord.ext.commands.HelpCommand.command_not_found") this returns `None` on bad input or no help command.

[shrewd apex]

worthy?

[lyric apex]

What this does

[slate swan]

Sends help

[lyric apex]

I meant is that good idea or any other method exist

[shrewd apex]

sends a help embed however u defined it

[slate swan]

ctx.send_help() will work as if some user used the help command

[shrewd apex]

if u subclass helpcommand

otherwise it will send default help

[slate swan]

Context.send_help() is only useful if you are using the commands.HelpCommand system

it will send the default help if you're not and used remove_command.

[lyric apex]

I want it for commands in the bot not the help page

Will that work for.me

[slate swan]

You can just pass help_command=None into the Bot constructor to just not create one

[slate swan]

?

[lyric apex]

Like if someone does -help say so it send the say command syntax

[slate swan]

oooooof

why don't you subclass help command

!custom-help

[unkempt canyon]

Custom help commands in discord.py

To learn more about how to create custom help commands in discord.py by subclassing the help command, please see this tutorial by Stella#2000

[sonic flax]

@slate swan Do you know how to make these?

[slate swan]

the send_command_help override

[lyric apex]

<t:728223:R>

[slate swan]

!d discord.utils.format_dt

[unkempt canyon]

discord.utils.format\_dt

discord.utils.format_dt(dt, /, style=None)```
A helper function to format a [`datetime.datetime`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/datetime.html#datetime.datetime "(in Python v3.10)") for presentation within Discord.

This allows for a locale-independent way of presenting data using Discord specific Markdown...

[slate swan]

Please don't @ me

[sonic flax]

I mean, I know how to make that, but how do I make it so it displays the second it started

[slate swan]

I don't think Discord supports that

[lyric apex]

time.time()

? He wants the current time

[sonic flax]

yes

[lyric apex]

!e py import time print(time.time())
