bru

[slate swan]

how can everything be a var

[heady sluice]

okay I didn't mean irl

[slim spoke]

can someone come to my bot testing server and tell me which permissions does my bot need? xd tried few different options but it didn't work

[heady sluice]

on line 21, you used a # which commented out an important part

I think what you meant is colour=0xb7ff02)

and in the end (in code, in case you'd ask), member.display_avatar.url could just be written as x

cuz you dunno what it is

[uncut jacinth]

class Buttons(discord.ui.View):
    def __init__(self, *, timeout=180):
        super().__init__(timeout=timeout)
    @discord.ui.button(label="Blurple Button",style=discord.ButtonStyle.blurple,emoji="🎁") # or .primary
    async def blurple_button(self,button:discord.ui.Button,interaction:discord.Interaction):
        button.disabled=True
        await interaction.response.edit_message(view=self)

@client.command()
async def button(ctx):
    view=Buttons()
    await ctx.send("This message has buttons!",view=view)

And i got this error

Ignoring exception in view <Buttons timeout=180 children=2> for item <Button style=<ButtonStyle.primary: 1> url=None disabled=False label='Blurple Button' emoji=<PartialEmoji animated=False name='🎁' id=None> row=None>:

Any body any idea?

[slate swan]

?

[heady sluice]

no, not discord.Color

[slate swan]

🤔

[heady sluice]

you use discord.Color or discord.Colour when you want to access a colour that Danny has hardcoded for you already

you want the specific colour 0xb7ff02

so you only pass that to colour=

[slate swan]

correct?
color=discord.colour=0xb7ff02)

[heady sluice]

no...

color=0xb7ff02)

I also noticed you made client a commands.Bot, then reassigned it to be a discord.Client

and changed presence on_ready

so I suggest just removing line 5

[slate swan]

just remove line 5 ?

[heady sluice]

and I got a tag from the dpy server:

Don't change_presence (or make API calls) in on_ready within your Bot or Client.
Discord has a high chance to completely disconnect you during the READY or GUILD_CREATE events (1006 close code) and there is nothing you can do to prevent it.

Instead set the activity and status kwargs in the constructor of these Classes.

bot = commands.Bot(command_prefix="!", activity=..., status=...)

As noted in the docs, on_ready is also triggered multiple times, not just once.

Basically: don't 👏 do 👏 shit 👏 in 👏 on_ready.

[heady sluice]

yes

[slate swan]

u send me ?

[heady sluice]

yes

[slate swan]

where i typing?
bot = commands.Bot(command_prefix="!", activity=..., status=...)

[heady sluice]

oh, you don't need a bot

you can do this within your client

you have

client = discord.Client()
```, so you could change that to

client = discord.Client(activity=discord.Game(name="++introduction"))

[dense swallow]

how can i see button press counts?

[heady sluice]

and delete line 11 with the change_presence stuff

and your code is already much better on startup

[dense swallow]

does anyone know how? ik its using callback func but how exactly

[dense swallow]

    @commands.command()
    @commands.cooldown(1, 10, commands.BucketType.user)
    async def suggest(self, ctx, *, suggestion):
        """Suggest some commands that should be included in bot."""

        upvotes = 0
        downvotes = 0
        channel = self.bot.get_channel(798259756803817545)
        view = View()

        b1 = ButtonCreation(

        )
        b2 = ButtonCreation(

            upvotes += 1
            await interaction.response.edit_message(embed=em)

        b1.callback = b1_callback

        async def b2_callback(interaction: discord.Interaction):

            downvotes += 1
            await interaction.response.edit_message(embed=em)
        
        b2.callback = b2_callback

        em = discord.Embed(color=self.bot.color)

        em.add_field(name="Suggestion", value=f"> {suggestion}", inline=False)
        em.add_field(name="Upvotes", value=f"{upvotes} Votes", inline=True)

        em.set_footer(text=f"Guild: {ctx.guild} ({ctx.guild.id})")

        await channel.send(embed=em, view=view)
``` this is my code, but it does not update it, shows 0 (both upvotes and downvotes)

[heady sluice]

just store something like b1.count, set it to 0

[wicked atlas]

Your error is on line 29, not 9

[heady sluice]

add 1 to it in the callback

[slate swan]

better subclass the View

[dense swallow]

im doing that, setting upvotes and downvotes = 0 then +1 it in async func

[slate swan]

Andu know how fix 29 line ?

[heady sluice]

this

[wicked atlas]

Yes, add the missing : at the end of your if statements

[heady sluice]

interesting indentation

[dense swallow]

so callback in the view class?
edit; wait view does not have a callback

[slate swan]

correct?

[heady sluice]

huh

missing a bit of python here

[wicked atlas]

You know basic python, right?

if condition:
…

[slate swan]

class UpDownVoteView(discord.ui.View):
  def __init__(self):
    super().__init__(timeout=60)
    self.up = 0
    self.down = 0
    self.users = []
  
  async def interaction_check(self, inter: discord.Interaction):
    if inter.user in self.users:
      return await inter.response.send_message("NO", ephemeral=True)
  @discord.ui.button(label="upvote")
  async def upv(self, button: discord.ui.Button, inter: discord.Interaction):
    self.up += 1
    await inter.response.send_message("Upovted", ephemeral=True)  

  @discord.ui.button(label="downvote")
  async def downv(self, button: discord.ui.Button, inter: discord.Interaction):
    self.down += 1
    await inter.response.send_message("Downvoted", ephemeral=True)  

[heady sluice]

noob

[slate swan]

better append the users to a list so that they dont get to up/downvote again

[dense swallow]

yeah

[slate swan]

im begginer, sorry .

[dense swallow]

thanks, ill try

[slate swan]

just i want help to correct my first script

[heady sluice]

what about pep8

[slate swan]

what's that?

we don't talk about that

[heady sluice]

nah you're trippin

[slate swan]

also, what did I do, that was just an example

[wicked atlas]

Just a heads up, discord.py isn’t a beginner thing despite it being what draws people to python. It’s a more intermediate thing, much easier once you’ve taken the time to learn the basics of the language

[slate swan]

I just used the tabs.....which discord provides

[slate swan]

Yea 100% but just i want fix my code ..

[heady sluice]

let's teach discord pep8 real quick

[slate swan]

no comments

            interaction.response.send_message(content="123", ephemeral=True)

Dear tell me what is the problem?

[slate swan]

await interaction.response.send_message

😅 oh

[heady sluice]

!indents

[unkempt canyon]

Indentation

Indentation is leading whitespace (spaces and tabs) at the beginning of a line of code. In the case of Python, they are used to determine the grouping of statements.

Spaces should be preferred over tabs. To be clear, this is in reference to the character itself, not the keys on a keyboard. Your editor/IDE should be configured to insert spaces when the TAB key is pressed. The amount of spaces should be a multiple of 4, except optionally in the case of continuation lines.

Example

def foo():
    bar = 'baz'  # indented one level
    if bar == 'baz':
        print('ham')  # indented two levels
    return bar  # indented one level

The first line is not indented. The next two lines are indented to be inside of the function definition. They will only run when the function is called. The fourth line is indented to be inside the if statement, and will only run if the if statement evaluates to True. The fifth and last line is like the 2nd and 3rd and will always run when the function is called. It effectively closes the if statement above as no more lines can be inside the if statement below that line.

Indentation is used after:
1. Compound statements (eg. if, while, for, try, with, def, class, and their counterparts)
2. Continuation lines

More Info
1. Indentation style guide
2. Tabs or Spaces?
3. Official docs on indentation

[warped mirage]

can someone help me make a slash command dpy 2.0 , i need certain stuff on it

[full lily]

if i'm making a web panel for my discord bot in flask, how easy is it to exchange information between the bot and the site?

[warped mirage]

Hey Ashley its been a while , can u rq help me

[slate swan]

yeah?

[warped mirage]

so , i need /send category1: category2: then it says your category has been sent to the owner and the bot dms u the category1 category2

[slate swan]

dont use flask, it's blocking, use quartz instead, and it isn't that hard to pass information between a UI panel and a bot, I remember doing that once, you just need certain stuffs for that

[full lily]

flask isn't blocking I thought?

[slate swan]

it is, quartz is asynchronous

[full lily]

okay cool

[warped mirage]

and in the dm the bot will legit say , the information is category1 category 2

easy enough for sum ppl

So can someone help me with that

[slate swan]

do you know how to create a basic slash command at least?

[warped mirage]

nope

i forgot

[potent spear]

in dpy v2?

[warped mirage]

ye

[potent spear]

there are existing examples in gh

[warped mirage]

can u send a link

i cant find anything

[potent spear]

https://github.com/Rapptz/discord.py/blob/master/examples/app_commands/basic.py

[warped mirage]

@app_commands.rename(text_to_send='text')

    """Sends the text into the current channel."""
    await interaction.response.send_message(text_to_send)
``` ok i have this

anyways so can someone help me

make the code

@slate swan

someone lol

[potent spear]

well, you need to define the bot and intents correctly too ofc

[warped mirage]

ye but i dont need that

i need /send category1: category2: then it says your category has been sent to the owner and the bot dms u the category1 category2

[potent spear]

ofc you do, otherwise your command simply will not run

[warped mirage]

can u help me make the command if its simple please

[potent spear]

well, I've seen you here before, so you must know how to do it in v1.7.3, right?

[warped mirage]

sort of

but im v2.0

[potent spear]

well, have you read the migration guide first of all?
for example, you need message_content intents, since they are required, as well as in the discord dev portal, you'll need to enable app commands

[warped mirage]

I have it

[potent spear]

well, then where's your issue?

[warped mirage]

...

/send category1: category2: then it says your category has been sent to the owner and the bot dms u the category1 category2

i need help making this?

[potent spear]

well, you should know that that command will take 2 args
with typehint discord.CategoryChannel

[warped mirage]

ok if u guys dont know its alr

[potent spear]

we won't write it for you, that's all we're saying

[warped mirage]

no one asked for that

[dense swallow]

how would i get the total upvotes and downvotes in a Cog class?

[warped mirage]

@slash.slash()
async def send(ctx, user: discord.Member, *, message=None):
    message = message or "txt",
    await user.send(message)``` done i made a slash command @potent spear now i need help making the rest

[dense swallow]

pretty sure slash commands take in interaction, not ctx

[warped mirage]

this is v1.7.3

i need help making the rest

for 2.0

[dense swallow]

i think u should update to 2.0

[potent spear]

well, no idea what that @slash.slash() lib is, but it surely isn't v2

[warped mirage]

i have

[warped mirage]

ye , now u can help me 🙂

[potent spear]

what lib is that?

[warped mirage]

its old in 1.7.3

i need to make it 2.0

[dense swallow]

1.7.x does not have slash
is it discord-components?

[warped mirage]

discord-slash-commands

i think

but i made it as a template , now i need help converting this into 2.0

[dense swallow]

if u want slash d.py defines it as app_commands

[warped mirage]

ye , can u help me make that?

[dense swallow]

i havent made any slash cmds with dpy

[warped mirage]

ye but i need 2.0 bruh

You have to put both of them in the same arg.

You're separating with a comma for some reason

You have your args in the wrong order

Hi need help making it lol

[sage otter]

I bet it’s that get_avatar thing

[slate swan]

yse

[sage otter]

That doesn’t normally exist for cogs. Did you make one yourself?

[slate swan]

i made it myself

[sage otter]

And honestly just save yourself time.

Consider literally just
member1.display_avatar.url

[slate swan]

ehhmmm

wait in what waty

do i replace the member avatar 1 adn 2

sorry for typos

[sage otter]

memberAvatar1 = member1.display_avatar.url

[slate swan]

oooh

oh wait ofc i have it in my other command

[sage otter]

Oh you're on 1.7 dpy

You don’t have display_avatar

[slate swan]

my what

[sage otter]

nvm what I said about display_avatar

Do member1.avatar_url likewise for member2

[slate swan]

yes iknow

[sage otter]

So what’s the problem then?

[slate swan]

but also i keep getting that this is not importing

[sage otter]

Did you install the package?

[slate swan]

i did

wait ill try again

[slate swan]

oh ofc

srry

[sage otter]

element is only in the scope of your check function. You can’t use it outside.

What you can do is

assign the self.bot.wait_for to a variable and that variable will be that message you expect it to be.

And you can use that instead

[slate swan]

again attribute error

[sage otter]

Show your errors

[sage otter]

Yeah I literally said you don’t have that

[sage otter]

.

[slate swan]

i did

[neat lynx]

So, I want to get interactions/slash commands working with discord.py, but I have yet to found comprehensive documentation.

Can anyone point me in the right direction?

[slate swan]

?

[neat lynx]

You need to indent everything after line 13.

The error tells you.

You have the function and the if on the same intendation.

[slate swan]

how i correct?

[neat lynx]

By...adding a tab to everything that belongs into the function.

[slate swan]

wait

and now ?

[neat lynx]

What's different.

From line 37 to all other ifs.

[slate swan]

?

i add tab ( if) and tab await message

IF
await

[neat lynx]

The error message is pointing you to the space that is missing something.

What does an if end with?

[slate swan]

hello, could someone help me out. I've been trying this for ages. I'm trying to make a whitelisted command that my bot can have so only users with the certian ids can use the command. I'm wanting to save the users infomation and id into a config.json file but I can't get it to work, here's my code:

you should add a member argument into Buttons __init__ and assign it self.member = member and then you can access it in ur functions with self.member

you didnt add self.member = member in __init__

[uncut jacinth]

https://i.imgur.com/pGiVIsE.png

[autumn shuttle]

Not like that

Inside the init function

[uncut jacinth]

What inside the init function

[autumn shuttle]

dude in the function

[uncut jacinth]

Never had anything with __init_

[autumn shuttle]

You define self.member to the member argument

[balmy bobcat]

you should read object oriented programming docs

[autumn shuttle]

It's a normal function

But special

Normal function syntax thi

Tho

[balmy bobcat]

Hi, I'm trying to create a function that allows the user to create a custom role with a custom colour

@client.command()
async def role_perso(message,name,color):
    guild = message.guild
    await message.send(f"{color}")
    await guild.create_role(name=name, color=discord.Color(int(color)))
    await message.add_reaction(working_emote)

color is an hex color, but I don't know why, its class is str and I can't convert it to int
"Expected int parameter, received str instead."
"ValueError: invalid literal for int() with base 10: '0x45ba80'"

[autumn shuttle]

Cos it's not an int

Can't u just define color to that hex

[uncut jacinth]

Ok

[balmy bobcat]

when I don't convert it to int I just get "expected int received str"

[autumn shuttle]

I'm on mobile rn

[balmy bobcat]

I don't understand why I can"t convert my hex number to int yet this is an int

[autumn shuttle]

But try checking what they convert to color

[balmy bobcat]

discord.Color wants an int as a parameter

[autumn shuttle]

Yes but does color in create role only accept a discord.Color object?

[balmy bobcat]

let me check this

AttributeError: 'str' object has no attribute 'value'

[slate swan]

hello, im using a database to make a whitelisted command but how can i check to see if a user already exists within the database using the users id as a input?

[autumn shuttle]

Dude I've been telling you

Apparently you can just pass in the hex

You don't need discord.Color

https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/stable/api.html?highlight=create_role#discord.Guild.create_role

[balmy bobcat]

the problem is that they want the hex as an int

should I try to convert the hex to a base 16 int?

int(my_hex,16)

[autumn shuttle]

I just don't see how that's necessary

[balmy bobcat]

my hex is a str and they refuse str

[full lily]

do you know how to query the database?

[autumn shuttle]

Is it

[full lily]

your question is quite broad. Which part are you havbing trouble with

[slate swan]

SELECT id FROM users WHERE id = {userid} @full lily like that rigt im trying to compare the given user id say its 131313131313 and i want to check to see if that exists in my databae if it does i want my bot to state that it exsits if not i want it to add that user if that made sense

MY BOT is work thank but i have embed problem bot dont typing my embed. i think i have bad embed text?

[autumn shuttle]

I cant see shit

[balmy bobcat]

@client.command()
async def role_perso(message,name,color):
    guild = message.guild
    await message.send(f"{color}")
    await guild.create_role(name=name, color=color)
    await message.add_reaction(working_emote)

This is my actual code and it doesnt work
"AttributeError: 'str' object has no attribute 'value' "

[full lily]

okay so get the results, and check if the list that it returns is empty or not

if it's empty, you know the person isn't in your database and you should add them

I wonder if there's a sql command to all of that in one go. "Check if this row exists, and if not, add it"

[slate swan]

maybe so do i try to select the users id from my database and if it equals nothing then to add them right?

[autumn shuttle]

Something close to create table if not exits ?

There probably is

[slate swan]

My embed message, not work

client = discord.Client(activity=discord.Game(name="++introduction"))

[autumn shuttle]

Anything in the console?

[autumn shuttle]

Really weird

Then ig try converting it

[balmy bobcat]

that's what I did 😹 can't convert it

ValueError: invalid literal for int() with base 10: '0x45ba80'

[autumn shuttle]

But type returns int right

[slate swan]

yes

[slate swan]

?

[slate swan]

this is embed code

[balmy bobcat]

<class 'str'>

I added a print(type(color))

[slate swan]

[autumn shuttle]

display_avatar_url isn't a thing

It's just avatar_url

[heady sluice]

stuck in 1.7

[slate swan]

Done?
embed.set_thumbnail(url=message.author.avatar_url)

[potent spear]

If you’re not on dpy v2, yes

[slate swan]

fuck my embed ..

[sick birch]

Did you import it?

[slate swan]

my bot is ready but

my embed not work

[sick birch]

Also you should probably be using the commands extension

[slate swan]

this is my embed code bot not work

[potent spear]

You should read the error

[slate swan]

.

[potent spear]

Yeah, read it

[slate swan]

yea but i dont understand. .

[autumn shuttle]

Literally just import the library

[potent spear]

You didn’t import datetime

Good IDE’s would even suggest this

[slate swan]

if i remove date?

[autumn shuttle]

What's ur favorite ide

[waxen python]

How do most bots go about permission systems? I was wanting to allow the user to set permissions that roles are allowed to do, but I have no idea how this would feasibly work from a database....
How would I check that the user has a role with that permission without iterating through all their roles every time? Maybe I've set about this the complete wrong way. thanks

[autumn shuttle]

Don't remove anything just import datetime

[slate swan]

how?

[waxen python]

🗿

[autumn shuttle]

Import datetime

[slate swan]

example?

[waxen python]

import datetime at the top of your file.

[autumn shuttle]

IMPORT DATETIME

[slate swan]

🥲

[waxen python]

you are meant to know the basics of python before starting to use dpy :P

[slate swan]

what is this called? like embed.add what

[potent spear]

Why would you even store this?

[slate swan]

or set

Why are you blaming me

i just help. 🙂

[potent spear]

This is a footer

[slate swan]

sorry. : )

ahhh tnaks

thanks

[autumn shuttle]

I prefer tnaks tbh

[waxen python]

I would like to allow permissions to be set to roles. I'd have to store that somewhere

[potent spear]

You want to copy a member’s exact permissions & make a role out of it?

[waxen python]

do I? my current idea was to assign vaules to a role id in my database, but I hadn't thought through how I would end up checking that efficiently

[potent spear]

Yeah, you’re implementing this the wrong way

There’s a decorator called “has_permissions”

[waxen python]

No, I know that. But that's for default discord permissions, not custom vaules

[autumn shuttle]

If statements

[waxen python]

Again, yes. I'm aware how discord permissions work. That's not what I'm trying to do

[autumn shuttle]

Just check if any of the members roles is in the database with custom perms

[waxen python]

Yes, I thought that. But that doesn't sound efficient for every command

some users could have 100s of roles

[potent spear]

Yeah, and one of those roles should have a specific permission?

[autumn shuttle]

If it has a perm then it would be really specific and probably the top role

[slate swan]

i imported

[waxen python]

Not necessarily. I'm planning on having things like view user warnings which any low level mod would probably have

[slate swan]

but again, my embed not work : /

[autumn shuttle]

It's not like I'm an admin and only my mod role gives me the ability to ban

[waxen python]

change
datetime.datetime to datetime

[potent spear]

import datetime
Not
From datetime import datetime

[waxen python]

you somehow managed to do what we told you incorrectly

[slate swan]

wtf

[autumn shuttle]

import datetime

[waxen python]

that's how importing things work 🤔

[slate swan]

xD

[waxen python]

in your code

[autumn shuttle]

IVE SAID EXACTLY THOSE WORDS LIKE 66000 TIMES

[waxen python]

you can EITHER change to import datetime or do what I did

[potent spear]

Do one of those 2, not both

[autumn shuttle]

^

[waxen python]

what?

[autumn shuttle]

Resuming where we left off

[waxen python]

yeah..

if you have admin it would override it

[autumn shuttle]

Ig but it wouldn't override view warnings

[waxen python]

I'm going to have multiple checks, if had admin then I won't need to check my permissions dB. doesn't solve the issue though

[potent spear]

Anyways, storing “custom role names” as unique identifier isn’t a good idea, you should reference to a config table

[slate swan]

[waxen python]

UTC.

[slate swan]

ha?

[waxen python]

sorry, I'm not sure what you mean here? I'm not storing role names

[slate swan]

???

[waxen python]

the timezone

[potent spear]

It looked mike you were with “warning”

[waxen python]

you used UTC.now in datetimez it's going to be UTC

[slate swan]

i dont understand how correct time .

[waxen python]

that's the permission node

[potent spear]

Still not really an idea of what you’re trying to achieve

[slate swan]

remove

[waxen python]

remove indeed

[slate swan]

import datetime and add import UTC. ?

[waxen python]

I'm trying to assign roles a "permission" in my bot.
not sure how it's gonna work tbh

[waxen python]

w h a t

[slate swan]

;d ?

[waxen python]

🗿

[slate swan]

this is correct?
https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/343944376055103488/987863479455219753/unknown.png

[waxen python]

yes that's what you coded it to do

[slate swan]

now

[waxen python]

yes now that's what you did

[waxen python]

that's what this code does

[potent spear]

Well, I suppose it’s member specific and has not much to do with the current roles the member has?

[waxen python]

It's role specific, settable like this:

sorry for sending that again I just think that image explains it better than me :P

[potent spear]

I think I see what you want

You want to give an existing role in a Guild to a member with the specified permissions?

[slate swan]

done?

[potent spear]

Here we go again

[waxen python]

omg tf are you doing lmao

you had it working before

[waxen python]

it's up to the admin to add the role to the user.
it's like "assigning" a "permission" to a role so a user can use that command

[slate swan]

[waxen python]

so any user with the role has that "permission"

[potent spear]

And why wouldn’t you just add a role…

[waxen python]

What do you mean?

[potent spear]

Nope

[slate swan]

: /

[potent spear]

Don’t touch the import

[slate swan]

i want correct time bro

[potent spear]

Roles exist for this purpose, why create a db for it?

[waxen python]

@slate swan https://docs.python.org/3/library/datetime.html#examples-of-usage-datetime

[waxen python]

so you're saying have a role for every permission I might need?

like have the role called Warnings

I guess that's a way of doing it, less clean imo but idk.

[potent spear]

Depends on how many “moderation” roles you might need

[slate swan]

🤍

[waxen python]

fair enough

[slate swan]

async def on_member_join(member):
   await client.get_channel(971319830064017458).send(f"{member.name} has joined", delete_after=30)```

not working, how to fix?

[waxen python]

Sorry to bother you with this lol, I'll do some more thinking

[potent spear]

You need members intents

[slate swan]

pls be more specific. wdym

[waxen python]

You need the members intents from the discord developers portal and you need to enable them in your code

[potent spear]

!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.

[slate swan]

alr

is my code correct though?

[potent spear]

Yup, a bit of a redundant oneliner, but sure

[uncut jacinth]

class Buttons(discord.ui.View):
    def __init__(self, member, *, timeout=180):
        super().__init__(timeout=timeout)
        self.member = member
    @discord.ui.button(label="0",style=discord.ButtonStyle.green)
    async def gray_button(self,interaction:discord.Interaction,button:discord.ui.Button):
        label = int(button.label)
        label += 1
        button.label = label
        await interaction.response.edit_message(view = self)

    @discord.ui.button(label="0",style=discord.ButtonStyle.red)

        await interaction.response.edit_message(view = self)
        #await self.member.kick(reason="Test")

@client.command()
async def button(ctx, member: discord.Member):
    await ctx.send("This message has buttons!",view=Buttons(member))

Anybody know how i add a check to it that only the author can use the buttons?

[scarlet aurora]

    @commands.command()
    async def whomedia(self, ctx):

        check_role = discord.utils.get(user.guild.roles, name='Media Perms')

        for user in ctx.guild.users:
            if check_role in user.roles:
                await ctx.send(user.name)``` ```user is referenced before``` can someone tell me why this is happening?

[uncut jacinth]

@client.command()
async def whomedia(ctx):

    check_role = discord.utils.get(ctx.guild.roles, name='Member')

    for user in ctx.guild.members:
        if check_role in user.roles:

[scarlet aurora]

that's not what I want

[uncut jacinth]

So what exactly do you want?

[scarlet aurora]

I'm trying to check if per user has media perms

[uncut jacinth]

Yes its the code

[cerulean folio]

you're using a variable without referencing it

[scarlet aurora]

so it goes through each user, then check if it has media perms

[uncut jacinth]

But i changed the media

You can change the role back

[cerulean folio]

i.e your variable isn't declare/doesn't exist

[scarlet aurora]

thanks

[uncut jacinth]

Then everyone in the server with the role gets listed

[cerulean folio]

for example if it's a dict, just add user = dict() before

[uncut jacinth]

Ohhhhh

[cerulean folio]

same question i need XD

[scarlet aurora]

still don't work

[cerulean folio]

async def whomedia(user, self, ctx):

pass the variable to the function

[scarlet aurora]

ok ty

[uncut jacinth]

isnt it self, user, ctx?

[cerulean folio]

so the function knows that user you're talking about

[uncut jacinth]

I would suggest you to send the output in one message

Because it will timeout your bot fast

Try this

[scarlet aurora]

doesn't work

i don't want any arguments

[uncut jacinth]

    temporary = ""
    for user in ctx.guild.members:
        if check_role in user.roles:
           temporary += user.name+"\n"

[sick birch]

Yeah, include an interaction_check function

!d discord.ui.View.interaction_check

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ui.View.interaction\_check

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

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

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

The default implementation of this returns `True`.

Note

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

[scarlet aurora]

what does this do

[uncut jacinth]

It adds the names in a variable that you can send afterwards

so your bot doesn't send too many messages if you have many members with that permission

so it doesnt timeout

[scarlet aurora]

ok ty

but the error is still there

[uncut jacinth]

So you want to get the perms?

right?

[scarlet aurora]

local variable 'user' referenced before assignment

[uncut jacinth]

@commands.command()
async def whomedia(ctx):

    check_role = discord.utils.get(ctx.guild.roles, name='Media Perms')

    temporary = ""
    for user in ctx.guild.members:
        if check_role in user.roles:
           temporary += user.name+"\n"
    await ctx.send(temporary)

Try this

There was no error for me

[scarlet aurora]

local variable 'user' referenced before assignment

[uncut jacinth]

How exactly i implement it i dont really understand that could you please explain if you dont bother?

[cerulean folio]

you're using the variable user as it was an object. But the variable user does not exist.
here's a simple example:

def send_message():
    print(message.user.id)
    return

async def on_message(message):
   send_message():

[uncut jacinth]

Did you used the code?

[sick birch]

Override the interaction_check function, and return a boolean depending on if the author should be able to use it or not

[scarlet aurora]

yers

[sick birch]

You might also wanna pass in the member object into the view

[cerulean folio]

in my example, you're using message BEFORE it exists

[scarlet aurora]

i don't want an argument though

[cerulean folio]

then put it inside the main function?

[scarlet aurora]

wdym

bot.command(user) ?

[uncut jacinth]

Ok so what should i use as member object

Interactions.user?

[sick birch]

ctx.author, the person to run the command

Compare that with interaction.user, and return a boolean depending on that

[uncut jacinth]

@client.command()
async def button(ctx, member: discord.Member):
    await ctx.send("This message has buttons!",view=Buttons(member))

Where exactly?

await ctx.send("This message has buttons!",view=Buttons(member), interaction_check=ctx.author)

[sick birch]

No, override the function in the view

[cerulean folio]

no, your whole code is already inside a function no?

[scarlet aurora]

oh nvm I got it

[cerulean folio]

what is it please? I'm curious

[sick birch]

async def myView(discord.ui.View):
  def __init__(self, member: discord.Member, ...):
    ...
    self.member = member

  async def interaction_check(self, interaction: discord.Interaction):
    # optionally add a message to people who can't use the interaction
    if interaction.user != self.member:
      await interaction.response.send_message("You can't use that :(")
      return False
    
    # The return is the most important part
    return True

  ... # other view components here

[scarlet aurora]

    @commands.command()
    async def whomedia(self, ctx):
        user = ctx.guild.members
        check_role = discord.utils.get(user.guild.roles, name='Media Perms')

        temporary = ""
        for user in ctx.guild.members:
            if check_role in user.roles:
                temporary += user.name + "\n"

        await ctx.send(temporary)```

@cerulean folio ^^

[cerulean folio]

I solved my problem

But in a different way since I'm not using @command decorators :(

 async def my_callback(interaction):
          if interaction.user == interaction.user:
            await interaction.response.edit_message(content="whatever", view = None)
            data['15'] = 0
            await select_game(data)
            return True

[scarlet aurora]

@cerulean folio I sent the code

[cerulean folio]

oh wait

[cerulean folio]

ohhhh so your referenced it !

nice :D

[scarlet aurora]

it don't work

[cerulean folio]

huh?

oh wait ofc it doesn't

what are you trying to do exactly please?

[scarlet aurora]

When command is run, it checks every user in the guild and returns the user names that have the rank (media perms)

[uncut jacinth]

Only the guy who i tag can use it

I need it to be used by author

[sick birch]

Well you just need to pass in a member object, so the exact implementation shouldn't matter

[uncut jacinth]

So i should like use the author id

but how i get it in the class

[sick birch]

Pass it in like you're already doing

[uncut jacinth]

Ok

[sick birch]

it should be a field in __init__

[uncut jacinth]

So i gonna pass in ctx?

[sick birch]

If you want to, but I'd only pass in the member object/id of the person who should be able to use the view

[uncut jacinth]

Okey thank you

[sick birch]

no prob

        self.member = member

    async def interaction_check(self, interaction: discord.Interaction):

try this?

[uncut jacinth]

I already sent him a working command but it didn't work for him

[sick birch]

Are you looking for users with a specific role or a specific permission? @scarlet aurora

[cerulean folio]

sorry I edited it

[sick birch]

Also may I put in we don't spoonfeed others in the future? thanks

[cerulean folio]

what does that mean?

[uncut jacinth]

I think sending ready code

[sick birch]

Yes, sending fully completed code without anything to support it

[uncut jacinth]

Okey

[cerulean folio]

I won't do that again but I'd like to know why that rule is set please

[sick birch]

Not really a rule, more of a courtesy

[uncut jacinth]

Because people need to learn

not just copy and pasting i guess

[sick birch]

It's because spoonfeeding doesn't help anyone learn, and only serves to shut someone up (albeit temporarily)

They'll come back later with a similar question because there's no learning value in pressing CTRL+C and CTRL+V

[uncut jacinth]

Smart

[sick birch]

What, copy pasting?

[uncut jacinth]

Nah

Not to spoonfeed someone

[sick birch]

Right, not a hard rule, but again a courtesy I'd prefer we followed as it does everyone a favour in the long run

[cerulean folio]

Well, I don't agree that it's always the case. Some people struggle for so much time, sending them the right answer sometimes helps not lose motivation to keep learning. Because some might just abandon.

Although I totally agree that most people just come for a ready to use code just to feel some achievement. Not a good way to teach indeed

[sick birch]

I agree, very dependent on the person. It's too much effort to figure out if it's worth spoonfeeding someone or not, so in general we'd like to stay away from it

[uncut jacinth]

I mostly struggle too because lacks of knowledge (Might it be in Python or in English), And sometimes it helps me more to get some code that i can analyse for the next time

Im try me in python since now activly around 3 weeks and i understand much because people sent me code that i could analyse, But there are always new things that brings me into struggle (Like these buttons)

[cerulean folio]

    @commands.command()
    async def whomedia(self, ctx): #defining the command to search users that have media perms
        user = ctx.guild.members # storing all server members in 'user' variable
        check_role = discord.utils.get(user.guild.roles, name='Media Perms') # here you're trying to send a list of users to be checked by a function that's supposed to check an individual user.

        temporary = "" # declaring an empty string
        for user in ctx.guild.members: # iterating through guild members (with a variable you defined above as all guild member which is kind of weird)
            if check_role in user.roles: # checking if None is in user.roles (i think this is always True or always False)
                temporary += user.name + "\n" concatenating your string

        await ctx.send(temporary) #sending string

I would suggest that you do something like:

@commands.command()
    async def whomedia(self, ctx): #defining function
        users = ctx.guild.members # storing users in a var
        result = list() # declaring result variable
        for user in users: # iterating through users
          if discord.utils.get(user.guild.roles, name='Media Perms'): # checking if role exists in user.guild.roles
            result.append(user?name) # adding user name to list
        await ctx.send('\n'.join(result)) # transforming list into string and sending it

[shrewd apex]

append user.name

[cerulean folio]

In python there are "inline loops" that basically shortens code and makes it more readable.
Thus, this part of the code:

  for user in users: # iterating through users
          if discord.utils.get(user.guild.roles, name='Media Perms'): # checking if role exists in user.guild.roles
            result.append(user) # adding user to list

could become:

result = [x for x in users if discord.utils.get(x.guild.roles, name='Media Perms')

[shrewd apex]

or user.id

[cerulean folio]

indeed, i'll edit it

[cerulean folio]

Is it fine now?

[uncut jacinth]

. Anybody an idea how i could fix it?

[cerulean folio]

what are you trying to do?

[balmy bobcat]

Hi, how can I check if a role has the default colour?

I want to code a command that allows the bot to delete only roles with a custom colour

[slate swan]

After u define self.member = member put self.author = author

[slate swan]

or "List comprehension"

[paper sluice]

ur checking if the guild has that role, not the user.

[cerulean folio]

I have a question here guys please.
So since I didn't learn with good sources, what I usually do is something like this:

@client.event
async def on_message(message):
  prefix = message.content.split(' ')[0]
  msg = ' '.join(message.content.split(' ')[1:])
  if prefix == '!greet':
    await message.channel.send(f'Hi <@{message.mentions[0]}> !\n
    <@{message.author}> told you this:\n
    `\n{msg}\n`)

client.run(token)

But now that I looked for a way to limit simultaneous command uses per user to 1, I've been told I should use bot decators.
Can someone send me a nice course/lesson/tutorial/video/guide about how should I reshape my bot?

All functions are ready and split in files, so what's remaining in my main.py is just the message parser with all the if statements to filters commands.

[cerulean folio]

if discord.utils.get(user.guild.roles, name='Media Perms') in user.roles: ?

[paper sluice]

no i was talking about the list comp

[cerulean folio]

Oh I don't know, I asked the dude to test it. Since I don't know the function I just explain what they generally has to do to fix it, so they can adapt with their knowledge 😊

[slate swan]

Yeah commands u can use them like

@bot.command(name="greet")
async def greet(ctx):
   await ctx.send("hello")

If u dont name the command in the Deco it will auto name with the func name

[cerulean folio]

Oh also for my question:
what's the difference between client and bot
i.e between client.run(token) and bot.run(token)

[cerulean folio]

oh rly? there's nothing more i should know it's that easy?? :o

[slate swan]

Yes

[cerulean folio]

ugh I been parsing all commands XD

[slate swan]

and ur bot var be like
bot = commands.Bot(command_prefix="ur prefix")

!d discord.ext.commands.Bot

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ext.commands.Bot

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

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

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

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

async with x Asynchronously initialises the bot and automatically cleans up.

New in version 2.0.

[cerulean folio]

alright...

thanks a lot !

I'll make the appropriate changes to all my code then

[slate swan]

👍

Get familiar to commands then u can switch to cogs

So u don't need to put all ur code stuff in 1 file

So u can separate them

[cerulean folio]

I mean...

I already did... XD

[slate swan]

Oh cool

[cerulean folio]

My previous main.py was like 1200 lines so... I ended up splitting it. It was a nightmare to reconnect everything 😭

especially importing stuff...

[slate swan]

Haha lol

[cerulean folio]

i'm still struggling with some parts

[slate swan]

U are free to ask

[cerulean folio]

thank you ! will do later

[slate swan]

Hey, does anyone know to add permission lock to a command using hikari-lightbulb?

[slate swan]

you mean a permission check?

[slate swan]

Yea

Like only people with administrator permission can do the command

[slate swan]

@lightbulb.add_checks(lightbulb.has_guild_permissions(hikari.Permissions.ADMINISTRATOR))
``` this should work

[slate swan]

Ok! Thank you so much!

[slate swan]

fix?

[paper sluice]

what is wrong?

[slate swan]

when doing the command, the point doesn't type any text

[paper sluice]

well then, authrole is not in the roles of the invoker

[slate swan]

Even if i remove Auth role

the bot doesnt say anything once command is written

[paper sluice]

did u run the bot?

[cerulean folio]

I just dropped discord.client() to start using commands.Bot() and was wondering how to do client.fetch_user(arg) now

[slate swan]

bot.fetch_user(id)

[cerulean folio]

aw okie thank you !

[cerulean folio]

an equivalent with ctx?

like does ctx.bot.fetch_user(arg) works?

[slate swan]

No

[cerulean folio]

alrightie

[slate swan]

Yes

[stone palm]

guys

how do i get the last message sent by the bot

in a server

[slate swan]

yes

arg should be an ID and you need to await this

[paper sluice]

yo sarth, does hikari have oop / decorator like button things, like dpy

[slate swan]

use hikari miru for discord.py views

!pip hikari-miru

[unkempt canyon]

hikari-miru v1.1.1

An alternative component handler for hikari, inspired by discord.py's views.

[paper sluice]

ah nice

[cerulean folio]

thank you !

So I read in dpy docs that client can be replaced by bot in nearly any circumstances... nearly XD

I just got this error:

msg = await ctx.wait_for('message', check=check)
AttributeError: 'Context' object has no attribute 'wait_for'

ohhhh

I'm stupid nevermind

[slate swan]

Bot has everything that Client does

its a sublass of Client

[cerulean folio]

yeah I apologize i put ctx instead of bot i'm just being stupid sometimes

How to send a cog help?

but, it used to work fine few minutes ago

it's confusing :o

[cobalt jacinth]

you can make 25 apps per account. any way to increase it ?

[supple thorn]

Dunno make alts?

[cobalt jacinth]

okay thx

[jagged adder]

is there a way for a bot to send a user to a specific channel, rather than just pinging them in said channel?

as with my bot it would be kinda convenient to be able to type x command to 'start game' and it takes u directly there, esp if you're in a server with alot of channels (like one of my main servers has :p)

[slate swan]

oh

[slate swan]

view = UpDownVoteView()
await ctx.send('yes', view=view)
await view.wait()
upv = view.up
downv = view.down```
(sorry for the late reply)

[slate swan]

you can simply mention the channel since what you need is indirectly altering the client using a bot which isn't possible and never will be

[jagged adder]

alright, i wouldve sworn i had come across that before. alg

[slate swan]

that isnt possible, the most you can do is, mention the channel

channel = Bot.get_channel(_id) or await fetch_channel(_id)
await ctx.send(f"Visit -> {channel.mention}")

so that it mentions a channel like so #discord-bots which users can click on and they're redirected to the channel (or join the channel if it is a voice channel)

[jagged adder]

yep

[abstract kindle]

Hey, can anyone help me with editing the thumbnail of an embed

Whenever I edit the message with a new embed, the old image just gets detached from the embed

[slate swan]

hi there, I'm using the <:name:id> format to use emojis in other servers but it just gives me this

and yeah I made sure it has the perms

[jagged adder]

how can i strip down a dict to just one of its keys when referencing it?

[slate swan]

old image?
which image?

[abstract kindle]

The initial thumbnail

I'm trying something with Message.add_files() and Message.remove_attachments()

[slate swan]

if you are editing the thumbnail, the older one will get removed obviously

[abstract kindle]

I got it working, except it's a little sluggish

Like the old image gets removed and then the new image gets edited in as an attachment and then it pops on to the embed

[slate swan]

so you are using set_thumbnail or set_image (and yes all the attachments will be cleared up on edit if it contained previous attachments, that's how discord works)

[abstract kindle]

I'm using set thumbnail

[slate swan]

weird

[jagged adder]

i have

Knife = {name: 'Knife', category: 'dagger', cond: 'used', dmg: 3, value: 25}

in Items.py

class NewGameState:
    def __init__(self):
        self.Inventory_Start = ['Backpack', Items.Knife]

in my class, and

 inv_string = ('__**Starter Gear**__', '\n'.join([f'- {obj}' for obj in state.Inventory_Start]))

in my inv check command

what i want to do is when i check the inv, only take the name attribute from the knife

[slate swan]

Knife.get("name")

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

[final geyser]

I know this is pretty basic but I made a discord bot that scrapes images from the web. I’m pretty proud of it.

[vocal snow]

Would be better if you made an Item class with a Dunder str that returns the name and subclass it for other items or such

[jagged adder]

not sure what u mean there

[slate swan]

checkthe channels perms for external emojis perm too

[slate swan]

thanks for the suggestion, figured it out

[vocal snow]

Do you know how to use classes?

[slate swan]

aight, nothing better

[jagged adder]

in the basic sense ye, tho i dont know everything fr

still learning

[vocal snow]

Ok ignore me then

[slate swan]

lmaooo

but why use classes if you don't know how to use them.....

there are alternatives....(which are messier ofc)

buy the hacker plan, and nobody would steal the code, you know many big bots are open-sourced ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

So I have member: discord.Member
How do I get the member’s id and name?

[slate swan]

!d discord.Member.name

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Member.name

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

[slate swan]

search the docs instead

[slate swan]

should use a vps over than horrible plan

[slate swan]

"I wanna host discord bot on replit"
so I provided the most straight-forward answer, not my fault

create a license?

[slate swan]

atleast show him the right/good/better path

[slate swan]

okay god

not really

depends on which vps and plans you buy and the vps's specs

max 10$ dollars i would pay for

see the pins

[slate swan]

okimii rich af

im not rich

[jagged adder]

the thing is im not tryin to only get one name, i want to be able to have a bunch of items that are later added to inv have the same thing done to them when i use the inv command. ie, i need a way of filtering out only the name for any item under one of my 'inv' categories

[slate swan]

10 dollars aint much though, so I take my words back

10 bucks a month max for me tbh

no

under powered machines

(copied from dpy)

• Bots are not what the platform is designed for. Heroku is designed to provide web servers (like Django, Flask, etc). This is why they give you a domain name and open a port on their local emulator.

• Heroku's environment is heavily containerized, making it significantly underpowered for a standard use case.

• Heroku's environment is volatile. In order to handle the insane amount of users trying to use it for their own applications, Heroku will dispose your environment every time your application dies unless you pay.

• Heroku has minimal system dependency control. If any of your Python requirements need C bindings (such as PyNaCl binding to libsodium, or lxml binding to libxml), they are unlikely to function properly, if at all, in a native environment. As such, you often need to resort to adding third-party buildpacks to facilitate otherwise normal CPython extension functionality. (This is the reason why voice doesn't work natively on heroku.)

• Heroku only offers a limited amount of time on their free programme for your applications. If you exceed this limit, which you probably will, they'll shut down your application until your free credit resets.

😔 imagine having volatile storage

[slate swan]

Possible to do like
If the user uses ,daily today he gets 1500
If he uses ,daily tomorrow again he gets 3000
In simple words increasing 500 coins per ,daily
But if the user fails to use it for the next day reset the amount

[slate swan]

yes it is possible, use a db with a task

[waxen ruin]

hello..is there a way i can make my bot read commands from a webhook? Thanks

and ik we can do something with on_message, but i want to incorporate it with discord.ext commands

[vocal snow]

Are webhooks able to read messages? I thought they could only send

[pliant gulch]

Send only yea

[pliant gulch]

Check if message has .webhook_id to determine is a message is webhook, then just read message.content

[vocal snow]

Oh read commands from a webhook as in read commands... From a webhook

ez

💀 ** **

I wouldn’t ask if it was that easy

its output is 25000

not 25,000

uh

wait

k*

yes, if it's inside f-string expression, otherwise it won't

[pure crypt]

hi, how can i make that teh bot reply to the user’s message where he call 5he command?

[slate swan]

!d discord.ext.commands.Context.reply

[unkempt canyon]

discord.ext.commands.Context.reply

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

A shortcut method to [`send()`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.Context.send "discord.ext.commands.Context.send") to reply to the [`Message`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.Message "discord.Message") referenced by this context.

For interaction based contexts, this is the same as [`send()`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.Context.send "discord.ext.commands.Context.send").

New in version 1.6.

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

[slate swan]

no

I was trying brainfuck though

[slate swan]

im learning rust and i love it

nice

yes

[pure crypt]

and how can i made it that the bot send an embed?

content=embed=embed doesn’t work

[slate swan]

just embed=embed

[pure crypt]

Ok

[slate swan]

you've tried bf?

[slate swan]

nope

i dont like troll langs really

nice

[pure crypt]

How can i make that the bot add an emoji to his message and if the user clicks it it delets the message? I can’t find it in the docs

[spring flax]

!d discord.Message.add_reaction

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Message.add\_reaction

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

Adds a reaction to the message.

The emoji may be a unicode emoji or a custom guild [`Emoji`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.Emoji "discord.Emoji").

You must have the [`read_message_history`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.Permissions.read_message_history "discord.Permissions.read_message_history") permission to use this. If nobody else has reacted to the message using this emoji, the [`add_reactions`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.Permissions.add_reactions "discord.Permissions.add_reactions") permission is required.

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

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

[spring flax]

!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.

[slate swan]

just for starting xD

[heady sluice]

too many people have this

[shrewd apex]

swas.py....

idk why is it that tough to make a db

[slate swan]

sql dbs are ezier than json

[dusky pine]

SQL is closer to english than... dictionaries.

INSERT INTO users VALUES ('sz_skill', 'password123'); looks better than db["users"].append(["sz_skill", "password123"])

[dusky pine]

if you have a mechanism to give someone money then that's pretty fucked

[lament mesa]

admin abooz

[dusky pine]

i meant people could make alts and give their main money

[warped mirage]

ashley

can u help me now?

[swift pumice]

???

[slate swan]

do you have an on_message or on_command_error event?

[swift pumice]

yes

[slate swan]

can you show

[swift pumice]

ok wait

async def on_message(message):
    if message.author == bot.user:
            return

[slate swan]

remove the await bot.process thing and change .event to .listen()

[swift pumice]

no all my other commands work, its not bot event problem its my code problem @slate swan

pls ping me if you answer cuz i wont see it if you dont

[warped mirage]

Hey can u help me make a slash command in dpy v2.0 with these things

[heady sluice]

ctx.add_roles?

[swift pumice]

hm?

[heady sluice]

you can't add a role to a Context

you can add a role to a Member

ctx.user is also not a thing iirc

do you mean
!mute <ping someone>
and the pinged person is muted?

[swift pumice]

yes

[swift pumice]

so like instead of ctx i would need to add member?

[heady sluice]

you want to take a Member as an argument

[swift pumice]

oh ok ty

[heady sluice]

like this

async def mute(ctx, member):

then you can use
await member.add_roles(mute)

[swift pumice]

async def mute(ctx,member):
    if member.author.guild_permissions.administrator == True:
        mute = member.guild.get_role (985475444981764106)
        await member.add_roles(mute)
        await ctx.send(f"{ctx.user.name} has been muted.")
    else:    
         await ctx.send("you are not adminstrator, noob", delete_after=3)``` like this right?

[heady sluice]

it's good

[swift pumice]

thanks

[heady sluice]

but you might wanna send that the member was muted

not the person who used the command

[swift pumice]

oh ok

thx

[heady sluice]

👍

oh wait @swift pumice lmao

[swift pumice]

huh?

async def mute(ctx,member):
    if member.author.guild_permissions.administrator == True:
        mute = member.guild.get_role (985475444981764106)
        await member.add_roles(mute)
        await ctx.send(f"{member.name} has been muted.")
    else:    
         await ctx.send("you are not adminstrator, noob", delete_after=3)
```like this?

[heady sluice]

you still have to use if ctx.author.guild_permissions.administrator == True:

[swift pumice]

oh okay

[heady sluice]

ctx.author is the person who used the command

[swift pumice]

okay

[heady sluice]

member is the person who you pinged

[swift pumice]

thanks

async def mute(ctx,member):
    if ctx.author.guild_permissions.administrator == True:
        mute = member.guild.get_role (985475444981764106)
        await member.add_roles(mute)
        await ctx.send(f"{member.name} has been muted.")
    else:    
         await ctx.send("you are not adminstrator, noob", delete_after=3)
``` it still doesnt work? no error in console? like nothing happens @heady sluice

[heady sluice]

on_command_error event?

actually, do you have members intent?

[swift pumice]

no, what is that?

[swift pumice]

no there is no error?

[heady sluice]

!intents might just answer 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.

[swift pumice]

yes i do

[heady sluice]

the on_command_error event catches errors for you, and if used wrong, it just makes the errors not show

[swift pumice]

oh

[heady sluice]

@bot.event
async def on_command_error(ctx, error):
    if isinstance(error, commands.CommandNotFound):
        await ctx.send("**Invalid command. Try using** `help` **to figure out commands!**")
    elif isinstance(error, commands.MissingRequiredArgument):
        await ctx.send('**Please pass in all requirements.**')
    elif isinstance(error, commands.MissingPermissions):
        await ctx.send("**You dont have all the requirements or permissions for using this command :angry:**")

this is an example of a bad error handler

cuz it's missing else: raise error

[swift pumice]

oh ok

[heady sluice]

do you have smth like this

[swift pumice]

no

[heady sluice]

damn it moment

[swift pumice]

like where is the problem?

[heady sluice]

do other commands work

[swift pumice]

yes

@heady sluice

[heady sluice]

can you show another command

[slate swan]

I have the same code

[heady sluice]

[swift pumice]

like what do you mean just a random command of mine?

[heady sluice]

yes

[swift pumice]

async def userinfo(ctx,member: nextcord.Member = None):
    if member is None:
        member = ctx.author
    embedVar = nextcord.Embed(title="Information", description="Shows information of the user", color=0x00ff00)
    embedVar.add_field(name=f"{member.name}", value=f"{member.discriminator}", inline=False)
    embedVar.set_thumbnail(url=f"{member.avatar}")
    #embedVar.add_field(name=f"{member.joined_at}"),value=f"{"%b %d,%Y, %T"}", inline=False)
    embedVar.add_field(name=f"{'Discord account creation date'}", value=f'{member.created_at.strftime("%d %b %Y %H:%M")}', inline=False)
    await ctx.send(embed=embedVar)

[heady sluice]

weird

I wonder what would happen if you'd put an error in the userinfo command

[swift pumice]

can you maybe just tell me the problem or do you dont know it either?

[heady sluice]

absolutely no idea

[swift pumice]

damn

[slate swan]

Why not use @commands.has_permissions(administrator=True)
And have

@mute.error
. . .
```?

[heady sluice]

more complicated

[swift pumice]

idk

[slate swan]

Don’t mind me, I use it for cooldown errors

[heady sluice]

yeah there's no other option for that

[slate swan]

?

Why are you telling me 💀

[heady sluice]

but please tell me you use a global error handler

[swift pumice]

what

[slate swan]

[slate swan]

for Nakime#6003

Not you

[swift pumice]

oh ok

[slate swan]

But try this

If it works

[warped mirage]

I need help someone

Making a slash command

[slate swan]

@swift pumice

[swift pumice]

what?

[slate swan]

“If it works”

[slate swan]

.

[swift pumice]

idk

[slate swan]

try it

[shrewd apex]

y?

i did tho...

[swift pumice]

ok

[cloud cairn]

I cant figure out how to make a command like this "!image <Image.png>"

[shrewd apex]

what's this?

[cloud cairn]

So when i do like !image meme.png it will send the image from my ./image folder

[swift pumice]

ok

[warped mirage]

Hey can u help me make something quick ?

[slate swan]

@swift pumice wait

[swift pumice]

it doesnt work still

Im frustrated.

[slate swan]

Wait wait

[swift pumice]

I wanna kms

[slate swan]

@client.command()
async def mute(ctx,member: discord.Member):
    if member.guild_permissions.administrator == True:
        mute = member.guild.get_role(988041989406740551)
        await member.add_roles(mute)
        await ctx.send(f"{member.name} has been muted.")
    else:    
         await ctx.send("you are not adminstrator, noob", delete_after=3)
``` try this ^

change the role id btw

[slate swan]

@swift pumice

[swift pumice]

thanks

[slate swan]

[slate swan]

Did nothing rather than removing author from if member.author.guild. . .

[swift pumice]

thanksss it works now :)))

[slate swan]

np

[cloud cairn]

Why wont this work?

@client.event
async def on_message(msg):
    channel = msg.channel

    if msg.content == ('!image ', image):
        await channel.send(file=discord.File('./images/'+image)) 

Pretty new to Python :/

Wut?

[heady sluice]

to me the only logical thing would be if msg.content.startswith("!image") and msg.content.split(" ")[1]:

well no cuz he doesn't know what it could be

maybe he has a list of what the options are

[heady sluice]

.

I suppose the image folder has images, so he might wanna check the names of the images and check if msg.content.split(" ")[1] is one of those names

[cloud cairn]

Exactly

[heady sluice]

I hate the fact you don't use commands PurpleSkull

[slate swan]

why not use commands instead of an on_message event

[cloud cairn]

Doesn't want to work, or i might just imported it wrong :/

[heady sluice]

there's also the option someone just writes !image and doesn't get a response

[cloud cairn]

And after that?

await channel.send(file=discord.File('./images/'+image))

or am i just stupid

probably stupid

[slate swan]

image is not defined, is it?

[heady sluice]

msg.content.split()[1]

does split automatically split by spaces

[cloud cairn]

No, should be defined as "None" or what?

[slate swan]

it should be the name of the image file...^ @cloud cairn
