        await ctx.send(attachment)
``` right way ??

[shell wing]

uwu no

[dusky pine]

i'm suing you

[shell wing]

UwU bet

[slate swan]

typehint attachment with discord.Attachment

dunno if that works

[shell wing]

typehint ? how ?

[slate swan]

...?

[dusky pine]

attachment: discord.Attachment

[warm tulip]

guys help how i can set 2 prefixes

[paper sluice]

Bot(command_prefix=(prefix1, prefix2))

[warm tulip]

thanks

[slate swan]

you can pass any iterable

[shell wing]

Alr

[slate swan]

command_prefix = (prefix, uwuprefix) # or [prefix, uwuprefix], {prefix, uwuprefix}, {prefix: 0, uwuprefix: 0} :pensive:

[swift pumice]

what?? i didnt know that you can use 2 prefixes? but if the two prefixes would be like ! and ? would they work for every command? like ?help and !help?

[slate swan]

the dict looks cursed though

[shell wing]

Yea

[slate swan]

yeah they work for every command

[swift pumice]

oh okay thanks

[paper sluice]

command_prefix=map(lambda x: globals().__setitem__(f'prefix{x}', x),range(10))

[slate swan]

😔 do you want me to leave this server or what

[placid skiff]

You can't

I don't have enough patience to handle those who don't know python and want to develop a bot

we need you

[slate swan]

I barely help anyways 💀

[placid skiff]

Better than nothing

[slate swan]

maybe

@client.command()
async def get(ctx):
    embed = DiscordEmbed(title="test1", description="", color=0x00ff00)
    embed.add_embed_field(name="test2", value="", inline=False)
    await ctx.send(embed=embed)
``` any idea why it is not sending the embed, sorry i've been out of dpy for about half a year

[dusky pine]

DiscordEmbed? what lib is that bro

[paper sluice]

i think u need a description on ur embed, and what is DiscordEmbed?

[slate swan]

oooooo i forgot to add a . after discord my bad

[dusky pine]

and it's add_field not add_embed_field

[slate swan]

description shouldn't be left empty, rather just dont define it, and the value always need to be something

[placid skiff]

well it is lowercase too

[placid skiff]

Uhm duh?

!d discord.Embed.add_field

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Embed.add\_field

add_field(*, name, value, inline=True)```
Adds a field to the embed object.

This function returns the class instance to allow for fluent-style chaining. Can only be up to 25 fields.

[dusky pine]

yeah they typed add_embed_field in their example

[slate swan]

i know but github copilot suggested me that so i thought it may be

i heard dpy got a new update that's why

imagine using copilot

[dusky pine]

damn copilot 🤦

[placid skiff]

Oh sorry

[slate swan]

what's wrong with it?

[placid skiff]

Lol copilot suggests add_field lmao

[paper sluice]

all my homies hate github copilot

[dusky pine]

basically your cmd name is invalid

[shell wing]

why....

[slate swan]

do you not see that i forgot to add a . after discord in embed var, that's why it suggested me that add_embed_field

[shell wing]

whats wrong in uwu

[dusky pine]

i'm suing you again

[shell wing]

UwU bet

[dusky pine]

what args does ur command have

[slate swan]

embed = discord.Embed(title=..., description=..., colour=...) #all the arguments in the Embed __init__ are optional
embed.add_field(name=..., value=..., inline=...) #every argument except inline is required

#to set the value to be invisible

embed.add_field(name="uwu", value="** **") #alternatively use "_ _" instead of "** **"

that's how you create an embed

[shell wing]

only 1...for message user input

[dusky pine]

color > colour 😔

[dusky pine]

what's the name of the arg

[slate swan]

same thing, I have a habit of writing colour

[slate swan]

i know man and i've already created it i JUST FORGOT TO ADD A DOT AFTER DISCORD that's what ive been saying the issue has been resolved

what the-

[dusky pine]

in the codebase color is aliased to colour

[shell wing]

i dont think i made it an arg

@cog_ext.cog_slash(name="partners", guild_ids=[933980948268208130],options=[
                           create_option(name="Partner Ad",

    async def partners(self, ctx, message):
        
        await ctx.send(message)

[slate swan]

nice

[shell wing]

!d discord.Embed

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Embed

class discord.Embed(*, colour=None, color=None, title=None, type='rich', url=None, description=None, timestamp=None)```
Represents a Discord embed.

len(x) Returns the total size of the embed. Useful for checking if it’s within the 6000 character limit.

bool(b) Returns whether the embed has any data set.

New in version 2.0.

For ease of use, all parameters that expect a [`str`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/stdtypes.html#str "(in Python v3.10)") are implicitly casted to [`str`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/stdtypes.html#str "(in Python v3.10)") for you.

Changed in version 2.0: `Embed.Empty` has been removed in favour of `None`.

[slate swan]

i know

[dusky pine]

see that's the problem, name has a space and an uppercase letter

change Partner Ad to partner-ad or something

[slate swan]

i guess i'll just step out than to argue with you guys

[shell wing]

icic

[dusky pine]

i kinda forgot that it was named options instead of args, mb lol

you can't set required for this type of option

[paper sluice]

no one is arguing with you

[dusky pine]

since the option_type is 1, i think that's why

i don't even know what 1 is

[slate swan]

okay bye

[dusky pine]

you rude

[slate swan]

whatever

[shell wing]

its for message input

[dusky pine]

try removing required=True

[slate swan]

show the partnerrr command head to the tail

[shell wing]

error

[slate swan]

they're not understanding the fact my issue has been resolved 😅

[slate swan]

I was just typing something and I sent it 😭 what'd I argue about

[shell wing]

when i removed it...it caused an error

[dusky pine]

they're gone now ash stop

[shell wing]

so i made it false..

[dusky pine]

o ic, dunno what to do then

[shell wing]

@slate swan head to tail UwU

[slate swan]

it's alright man, my fault

[dusky pine]

suing you again

what was that

[slate swan]

what lib is that?

[shell wing]

discord-py-slash-command

[paper sluice]

no, not gonna do that

[dusky pine]

not gonna do what

[paper sluice]

dwa

[dusky pine]

tf is dwa

[slate swan]

cog_ext ain't a thing in that lib..

[shell wing]

its working 💀 all commands work

[slate swan]

wha...

[shell wing]

@cog_ext.cog_slash(name="ping", guild_ids=[933980948268208130])

        await message.edit(embed=embed1)

see lmaoo

[paper sluice]

dont worry about it

[slate swan]

can I see where you are importing cog_ext from

[shell wing]

from discord_slash import cog_ext, SlashContext
``` ok my bad

its discord_slash

😭

[slate swan]

same lib

it's discord-py-slash-command but wtf...

[shell wing]

oo

lmao alr

curse on dic later 😭 why it isnt workinggg

[slate swan]

nvm

[slate swan]

what does option_type do?

[shell wing]

it is like it defines if the user input will be a channel or a role and all if its not the same it would say invalid

[forest oyster]

hey guys

I have a problem

[slate swan]

mhm?

[slate swan]

ew, I see

[paper sluice]

same

[shell wing]

ok 😶

[slate swan]

I'll just go to sleep instead, good night

and goodluck

@client.event
async def on_ready():
    print("Game time!")

why this no work

[shell wing]

ok im done with this shit now i aint using slashhssss

[slate swan]

in discord.py-self

[paper sluice]

define no work

[slate swan]

we cant help you with that....

[paper sluice]

!rule 5

[unkempt canyon]

Rules

5. Do not provide or request help on projects that may break laws, breach terms of services, or are malicious or inappropriate.

[slate swan]

maybe your bot isn't starting up

that does not break laws..

[paper sluice]

it does

[slate swan]

nobody asked, we can't help

just printing hi when a bot is ready?

[paper sluice]

self-botting is against discord's tos

[forest oyster]

@bot.command()
async def play(ctx, *, search):
    query_string = parse.urlencode({"search_querty": search}) 
    html_content = request.urlopen("http://www.youtube.com/results?" + query_string)
    search_results = re.findall('href=\"\\/watch\\?v=(.{11})', html_content.read().decode())
    await ctx.send("http://www.yotube.com/watch?v=" + search_results[0])

[slate swan]

like it prints after long time

[slate swan]

nice

[forest oyster]

i have a problem with that

[slate swan]

shouldnt the search_querty key be search_query, I mean by common sense

[slate swan]

read the error

search_results is None

@paper sluice @slate swan thx for helping very useful

👍

nice sarcasm

[forest oyster]

yea but idk how to fix it

[paper sluice]

print html_content and see if its the string u want to search or not, i told that b4 as well

[forest oyster]

its the same

[slate swan]

@shell wing why arent you using the latest version for discord-py-slash-command?

I'm tripping with words smh

[shell wing]

i tried shifting to it yesterday but wasnt able to...so im not trying it again rn lmao

ill do it on a test bot once i got plenty time

[forest oyster]

the same index error

[paper sluice]

how does printing html_content give index error

[slate swan]

then maybe it's your internet if you are hosting locally

LAG

i also tried it on heroku

still takes long

[forest oyster]

where i should print it?

[slate swan]

Sad

[paper sluice]

comment ctx.send and print

[slate swan]

html_content = "hi"
print(html_content[10])

[paper sluice]

no one said to subscript

[slate swan]

..

[forest oyster]

@bot.command()
async def play(ctx, *, search):
    query_string = parse.urlencode({"search_querty": search}) 
    html_content = request.urlopen("http://www.youtube.com/results?" + query_string)
    search_results = re.findall('href=\"\\/watch\\?v=(.{11})', html_content.read().decode())
    await ctx.send("http://www.yotube.com/watch?v=" + search_results[0])

can you do it please? 🙂😘

[slate swan]

add some lovey-touchy emojis, maybe he'll do it then

[forest oyster]

now?

xd

[slate swan]

lmaooooo

[forest oyster]

xddddd

btw con someone tell me how is my other proyect?

https://replit.com/@oskargiza/Spongebob?v=1

[warm tulip]

async def on_server_join():
    print=("joined one server!")```

guys i did this but its not working

helppppppppp

[shrewd apex]

wth

@bot.event
async def on_guild_join(guild):
    print("joined one server!")

[dusky pine]

it's on_guild_join

[rocky trench]

Yeah indeed.

[dusky pine]

in the 1.0 version server has been replaced with guild throughout the codebase

they also have an equals after the print

which is valid syntax but it will not do what you think it'd do

[slate swan]

.

[warm tulip]

hmm and how i can set a role id for a cmd i forget

[rocky trench]

@commands.has_role()

[slate swan]

role id as in?

[dim sentinel]

just got to know we can't use Ephemeral messages in discord.py

can we use it in nextcord?

and am i going to regret shifting to nextcord

[dusky pine]

personally i like disnake

[heady sluice]

music bot moment

[slate swan]

that's not the case, I dont know who told you such crap but discord.py is so much better than nextcord

[dim sentinel]

am actually trying to make an anonymous message kinda thing, so if the user uses slash command, the bot confirms it but uses ephemeral instead of just telling it everyone

then use an embed from the bot

but i have no idea how i am supposed to add it, can't find it in the docs either

[slate swan]

huh?

[dim sentinel]

about how i can enable ephemeral

[slate swan]

just set ephemeral=True in the send_message method

[dim sentinel]

is that it?

damn.

[proud apex]

How to add a user's avatar to the background and when the account was created, etc.?

[dim sentinel]

client.set_thumbnail?

[proud apex]

no

Like a membership card

[limpid thicket]

How to use slash commands in discord.py?

[slate swan]

!d discord.User.created_at

[unkempt canyon]

discord.User.created\_at

property created_at```
Returns the user’s creation time in UTC.

This is when the user’s Discord account was created.

[slate swan]

and what background

[dusky pine]

oh they're probably generating an image using PIL

[proud apex]

no

[slate swan]

A complete slash command bot - https://github.com/Rapptz/discord.py/blob/master/examples/app_commands/basic.py
Slash Commands - https://gist.github.com/AbstractUmbra/a9c188797ae194e592efe05fa129c57f

[slate swan]

what

[slate swan]

weird 😔

[limpid thicket]

@slate swan Where is the example/QuickStart and API reference for slash commands?

[slate swan]

https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/search.html?q=app_commands#

[limpid thicket]

Thx, is there an example usage of slash commands using this up to date API reference?

[slate swan]

https://github.com/Rapptz/discord.py/blob/master/examples/app_commands/basic.py
I can always give uwu examples if you require 😔

[hushed galleon]

i dont know if they're still working on a guide to app commands

i still sometimes reference their gist, even tho its pretty out of date

[slate swan]

fr

[heady sluice]

it's not that hard to make those slash commands once you got an example

but explaining it to someone who still is confused is pain in the ass

someone explained it to me, sorry for them

[limpid thicket]

Idek what I’m looking at in this basic.py

[heady sluice]

that's actually pretty basic.py

[hushed galleon]

when i came back like a few days ago to add a new cog + group, i found out about their GroupCog and that the group parameters were passed to the class itself, but then i had to look in the source code to figure out that i need to assign __discord_app_commands_default_guilds__ = [int, ...] to specify the guild ids

[slate swan]

I think I'll just create a temporary gist instead 😔

[heady sluice]

why temporary

[forest oyster]

@heady sluice can you help me with this?

[forest oyster]

this is the problem

[heady sluice]

not youtube

[forest oyster]

😦

[heady sluice]

search results is empty

[forest oyster]

and how to fix it?

[heady sluice]

get something in search results

[forest oyster]

like what?

[slate swan]

search_querty?

[forest oyster]

ok i alredy saw that

[slate swan]

and pretty sure you cant search for your stuff with spaces, you need to join them

[slate swan]

eh just explaining the usage of app commands and some examples for slash commands with v2

[alpine cove]

ur requests should be ansyc

[forest oyster]

idk how to fix it

nothing happened to pip you just didn't import SlashCommand from the library

[austere gust]

Hi

I am trying to host my discord bot on a vps, installed everything that is required to run the bot, and 99% of the features doesn't work.

When I start on my pc, they do work.

[slate swan]

probably an issue with the vps you're using

[lone sail]

Is it throwing any exceptions? Any logs?

https://stackoverflow.com/questions/54859876/how-check-on-message-if-message-has-emoji-for-discord-py

[austere gust]

yeah

these are the only thing

that shows in terminal...

well, when I start the bot on my pc, everything works

when I start on the vps, only some featrues work

I think no

but everything is installed

[cloud dawn]

I think so?

[austere gust]

on_raw_reaction add only

other events or commands doesn't work

ofc 💀

yes

not slash commands.

I am not idiot man. When I start the bot on my pc, everything works, when I start on the VPS, not much things

[pseudo zealot]

still not working rn

[austere gust]

man u think I am an idiot

[empty vine]

hey guys, im trying to make my bot send embeds using a paginator, but the image files are local so i cant update them with message.edit, is there another way?

[austere gust]

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

[pseudo zealot]

I can pay money if this error gets fixed

[austere gust]

thinking that I am an idiot and thinking that I know nothing, doesn't help

[lone sail]

Gathering information is the first step to figuring out what's wrong..

[pseudo zealot]

anyone fix 💀

[lone sail]

Nobody knows what you did to host your bot, hence why they ask. To make sure every step is correct and build a understanding of how your setup is.

[empty vine]

have you tried going to the developer portal and toggling the priviledged intents button?

not sure if that solves it but you can try

[velvet compass]

!rule 9

[unkempt canyon]

Rules

9. Do not offer or ask for paid work of any kind.

[austere gust]

so anyone?

[cloud dawn]

I will offer you 0 cents on the dollar, like I said it's just messages not message content.

[pseudo zealot]

ok

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Intents.messages

Whether guild and direct message related events are enabled.

This is a shortcut to set or get both guild_messages and dm_messages.

This corresponds to the following events...

discord.Intents.message\_content

Whether message content, attachments, embeds and components will be available in messages which do not meet the following criteria:

• The message was sent by the client

• The message was sent in direct messages

• The message mentions the client

This applies to the following events...

[cloud dawn]

@pseudo zealot Yerl provided a possible solution, I didn't take into consideration if you had 2.0 or 1.7.3

[austere gust]

can any1 help?

[pseudo zealot]

still not working 💀

[cloud dawn]

What did you type and what version do you have?

[pseudo zealot]

2.1.2 version

[cloud dawn]

[cloud dawn]

Ratelimit go

[pseudo zealot]

when I typed intents.messages = True

[pseudo zealot]

how to fix

[cloud dawn]

That means you are doing something that uses the api too much.

Spamming etc.

[pseudo zealot]

sure

Dms

ok

[austere gust]

I am trying to host my discord bot on a vps, installed everything that is required to run the bot, and 99% of the features doesn't work.

[cloud dawn]

You aren't providing any info as to why.

[austere gust]

But there is no errors

[unkempt canyon]

Pasting large amounts of code

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

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

[pseudo zealot]

ok

[austere gust]

only on_raw_reaction_add features working

other events, commands doesn't

[cloud dawn]

on_message

[austere gust]

on_message events not working for example

it is enabled ofc, when I start on my pc, they are working

when I start on my pc, they are working

[cloud dawn]

Dunno I personally use as paid vps so I don't have a lot of issues

[austere gust]

mine is paiod from azure

[cloud dawn]

Ah azure is a pain.

[unkempt canyon]

Hey @austere gust!

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

[austere gust]

I am hosting my fivem server on it too

I just don't want to pay for bot hosting too

[cloud dawn]

Just look at a VPS like a wireless VM that you can access remotely.

[austere gust]

the code is kinda weird, but yeah

everything works

I can't understand aswell

ok sure

2.0.0a3575+g45d498c1

I downloaded the same version

they are enabled on the website

this isn't on my code but still works on my pc, but ok I put it. Lemme try

yeye done alr

oy bros

thank you soo much

[warm tulip]

    channel.set_permissions(@everyone, read_messages=True, send_messages=False)``` not working

[scarlet aurora]

you need to fetch the channel id of wherever you execute that command

then using that id, store it in a variable

i mean not a cmd

just a welcome

[austere gust]

welcome message?

[warm tulip]

yea

embed welcome message

[warm tulip]

how i can add member pfp to it

ok

@austere gust i type it in cog or in main.py

[slate swan]

Yo can someon dm me i need help I want my command to be run by members every 24 hours and if they try to run it before 24hrs they get an error message thst they need to wait 24hrs

[austere gust]

@slate swan cool, the ticket is opened now, but when I press the claim button, same shit (interaction failed)

replace all buttons with self, interaction: discord.Interaction, button: discord.ui.Button?

oo

ok ty

[warm tulip]

why it have a eror

While the last line of the error message tells us what kind of error you got,
the full traceback will tell us which line, and other critical information to solve your problem.
Please avoid screenshots so we can copy and paste parts of the message.

A full traceback could look like:

Traceback (most recent call last):

!d discord.Embed

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Embed

class discord.Embed(*, colour=None, color=None, title=None, type='rich', url=None, description=None, timestamp=None)```
Represents a Discord embed.

len(x) Returns the total size of the embed. Useful for checking if it’s within the 6000 character limit.

bool(b) Returns whether the embed has any data set.

New in version 2.0.

For ease of use, all parameters that expect a [`str`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/stdtypes.html#str "(in Python v3.10)") are implicitly casted to [`str`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/stdtypes.html#str "(in Python v3.10)") for you.

Changed in version 2.0: `Embed.Empty` has been removed in favour of `None`.

[austere gust]

oy big thanks @slate swan

[warm tulip]

@austere gust chek your dm plsss

[slate swan]

you have to create an embed first

[warm tulip]

nvm'

[slate swan]

simply calling the set_thumbnail method wont work

[warm tulip]

do u know how to create ticket?

with cmddd

[slate swan]

what ticket-

[warm tulip]

wym

[slate swan]

you mean ticketing system or what?

[warm tulip]

bot creates a channel for mods and that person created ticket

[slate swan]

oh lmao

[warm tulip]

soo..

do u know how?

offffffffffff

bruh u was typing and i was thinking you are sending me the code.......💀

[placid skiff]

!d discord.Guild.create_text_channel

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Guild.create\_text\_channel

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

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

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

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

Note

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

[dim tapir]

how would u go about tracking ur api calls

[whole flicker]

API calls in python of API calls to an external website?

[dim tapir]

to discord my boy

[slate swan]

Can anyone give me that tutorial site link pls

[slate swan]

https://vcokltfre.dev/

Ye thanks

I needed it for my friend

[whole flicker]

I would modify the discord.py package and find a function which executes all outgoing traffic and add logging to that

[slate swan]

slash commands work on webhooks right?

[iron sorrel]

[paper sluice]

[paper sluice]

wdym? give example

[maiden fable]

Yea, interaction object is a webhook

[slate swan]

thanks, Hunter

[dim tapir]

wrong channel

[lofty pecan]

Hey there, is there a way to create a color picker in discord py?

[hasty loom]

wdym by a colour picker exactly?

[lofty pecan]

Some kind of slider to pick a color, or like a rectangle with all the colors to pick from

[hasty loom]

well uh i dont think its possible to make a slider inside discord lol

i think the easiest way would simply be to let the user input a hex value

[lofty pecan]

yeah but

apparently people don't like that

[hasty loom]

well theres no way to have an exact colour picker inside discord

u could make a drop down menu with like 10 colours

but if u want to have an exact colour u would need a hex or rgb input or something

[lofty pecan]

that's why I wanted to make a color slider or something

[hasty loom]

unfortunately thats not possible in discord atm lol

[slate swan]

👀 nice command idea brb

[velvet compass]

.color hex #8BE6D8 sad noises

[ionic turtle]

i wouldnt use nextcord or disnake

just use discord.py

[slate swan]

👀

[ionic turtle]

thats not a color picker as in slider

thats ust autocomplete

[slate swan]

making a slider on discord is not possible as you might be aware, read the chats below that.

[ionic turtle]

im aware,

[slate swan]

they need some way to allow a user to get color hex? and thats basically it

[ionic turtle]

why cant they just redirect to a color picking hesx

or even better like ask for the basic color in autocomplete then send a dropdown with color emojis

[slate swan]

how many emojis?

[ionic turtle]

too many

it would be like

100+

[slate swan]

discord has a limit on reactions?

[ionic turtle]

yes in dropdown its 25

[slate swan]

the autocomplete i made can process 740+ colors.

[ionic turtle]

im saying,

autocomplete has basic options like

red
blue
green...

[slate swan]

the gif says otherwise

[ionic turtle]

boi

im saying you could also just have basic colors and then use a dropdown with variations of those colors

and since dropdown options have an emoji space you could technically have like colored blobs

[ionic turtle]

also whats the reaosning behind using hikari?

is it better?

[slate swan]

best lib for python discord imo.

[ionic turtle]

discord.py ??

[slate swan]

and yeah, i can provide explanations.

[ionic turtle]

pls do, im curious

[slate swan]

I'll backup

1. discord.py is very badly typed. there are many #type: ignore
2. hikari is not cache dependent, i.e. the 200-300mbs of ram discord.py uses for an average bot is not a case in hikari, you have full control on the cache
3. documented and persistent restclient and cache ( people using discord.py arent even aware of the HTTPClient???)
4. multiple command handlers
5. hikari is faster
6. more object oriented

[ionic turtle]

what would the use be for http cleint?

[slate swan]

thats basically everything your bot is dependent on, sir.

[ionic turtle]

discord.py has an httpclient...

[slate swan]

discord.py uses that without exposing the users.

[ionic turtle]

wdym exposing the users

[slate swan]

*exposing to the

[heady sluice]

[slate swan]

😔 discord folder > http.py > class HTTPClient

[ionic turtle]

whats the issue with that?

its not like httpclient is some malicious thing

[heady sluice]

I'm not going to navigate to the discord folder

[slate swan]

thats not an issue, never said discord.py is bad, i just said how "hikari is better."

[paper sluice]

basically cpp of discord api wrappers

[slate swan]

yes

[ionic turtle]

i'm bad with anything typing 😭

i dont understand it after basic stuff. like generics make me want to die

[slate swan]

thats not the point, the point is: in hikari you can use the RestClient without a gateway.

[ionic turtle]

fr we're so dumb 😭

[heady sluice]

no connect internet still use

hikari moment

[slate swan]

heh

[heady sluice]

isn't that what you said

[lofty pecan]

that went pretty far lmao

I guess I'll just made an embed with a list of color

[jovial plover]

May i know the official library for Buttons, Select Menus, User commands etc

is there none yet

Where can read to get started

[ionic turtle]

yea almost all if not all at this point support interactions

[slate swan]

no, definitely, i think y'all should look into https://discord.dev and have a look on how the discord api actually works.

making a gateway connection is not necessary at all, its just a medium to exchange the events, you can do stuff like sending messages, kicking members, updating objects and other POST, GET and PATCH requests without a gateway. discord.py abstractions will never allow you do that. as it totally relies on the gateway

libraries like hikari and discord.js allows you to make a rest only client... which basically is just used to get and send requests. basically what an interaction server or a dashboard would need.

[slate swan]

^

[ionic turtle]

https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/interactions/api.html?highlight=interactions#button

[ionic turtle]

so the http bot thing

pure http

[heady sluice]

connect internet but not that much and use

[warm tulip]

guys how to make mute cmd and set a role for muted

[jovial plover]

You can do Timeout now

[warm tulip]

i now

i wanna mute

[jovial plover]

Then make a role with send messages disabled perm

[slate swan]

HTTPClient is the class which makes requests in discord.py
RestBot is the class which makes requests in hikari

thats basically it.

[ionic turtle]

isnt that just timeing out??

[warm tulip]

so how to make a cmd with bot to give that role to another persons

[jovial plover]

he wants to make mute role

[ionic turtle]

and discord does the unmuting for u

[ionic turtle]

role = xyz role
await member.add_roles(role)

u need a member and role object

[slate swan]

there's a lot, http is a protocol, REST is a type of api
but the libraries chose their own class name, even tho having same functionality

[warm tulip]

can u send all of the code im beginner

[ionic turtle]

you can read documentation, i already gave u a basic idea and the code. you just need the member and role oibjects

[warm tulip]

::|||

[slate swan]

*gateway,
it just helps you receive the events from discord, nothing else.

[ionic turtle]

says ur a develloper in ur discord bio :))

[slate swan]

for the person who asked why should the http be revealed.
it saves you from 2-3 extra operations/requests

[ionic turtle]

discord.py sends one request for what u want??

wdym 2-3 extra

[slate swan]

how would you normally send a message to a channel if you have its id

[ionic turtle]

use the bot's cache to get the channel and then send api request to send message through the function

you rarely ever fetch stuff

[slate swan]

you can bot.http.send_message(id, "this is the message")

[warm tulip]

how to timeout members full cmd pls

[minor totem]

Are you looking to create a Discord API framework?

[ionic turtle]

write it urself

[warm tulip]

howwwwwwwwwww

[ionic turtle]

!d discord.Member.timeout

[unkempt canyon]

discord.Member.timeout

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

Applies a time out to a member until the specified date time or for the given [`datetime.timedelta`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/datetime.html#datetime.timedelta "(in Python v3.10)").

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

This raises the same exceptions as [`edit()`](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html#discord.Member.edit "discord.Member.edit").

[ionic turtle]

there u go

[minor totem]

YEEEeeS, I have a lot of code where I need to fetch an object even though I already have the ID to make the request

[slate swan]

that's exactly one of the cases where a RestClient gets handy

[ionic turtle]

you can always access the bot's http tho

[slate swan]

still, discord.py's http is really messed up
the send_message method will give you a PartialMessage which misses many attributes of a Message class

eh wrong enter press, wait

[ionic turtle]

just use the private attr

actually its not even private

[pliant gulch]

HTTPClient & RESTClients' will be a library abstraction, you don't really need to know them persay

[minor totem]

If I want to edit a channel, with discord.py I still need to fetch the channel just to edit it. If the API methods are exposed, I can just directly edit the channel by the ID that I have.

[slate swan]

tbh i really love using the REST classes instead of making requests thru the discord Model methods

[pliant gulch]

If only restcord wasn't in PHP

[ionic turtle]

yuo can just

bot.get_channel
```??

[minor totem]

It's undocumented still. Not surprised if it will be changed to _http in 2.0

[ionic turtle]

use the cache, dpy cache is quite decent

[slate swan]

a cache call, which is not even needed.

[minor totem]

Yup

[pliant gulch]

Decent kek? It's literally just a mapping

And python's mapping is very bad compared to other languages

It would be nice if discord.py had a cache driver system

[slate swan]

no its really hilarious, you have no control over it, and as andy said its a mapping, lemme make it worse for you, its just a dictionary

[minor totem]

Yeah that's the RESTClient-thing we've been talking about.

[pliant gulch]

Don't even get me started on discord.py's message cache

[cerulean folio]

@bot.command(name='add')
@commands.has_any_role(role)
@cooldown(1, 1000, commands.BucketType.user)
async def cmd_add(ctx):
  await cmd.add_report(ctx, bot)
  cmd_add.reset_cooldown(ctx)
@cmd_add.error
async def cmd_add_error(ctx, error):
    if isinstance(error, commands.MissingRole):
      await ctx.send("You don't have access to this role")

This doesn't show error when used without role :o
It just doesn't allow people that don't have role

[ionic turtle]

i mean it was horrendous when i used a fork idk why lol

[cerulean folio]

somethow

[slate swan]

andy with his 0(n) complaints

[minor totem]

Please, be my guest.

[pliant gulch]

It's a deque for the popleft, but they made getting message O(n)

They could've used a dictionary

They are ORDERED NOW kek

Just encapsulate a dict inside of a class that handles popping left, then you have a deque with constant time getitem

[sick birch]

Is it still linear time?

After ordering, I mean

[pliant gulch]

Popping left will be probably, unless you store the key before hand

[warm tulip]

  @commands.has_any_role(989043172007104552,989044819101896735,)
  async def timeout(self, ctx: commands.Context, target: discord.member, *, reason):
      await timeout(until, /, *, reason=None)
      await ctx.send("member timeouted :white_check_mark:")```
its not working

[sick birch]

big zero notation

[minor totem]

Circular buffer ftw

[maiden fable]

Let's eat popcorn 🍿

[pliant gulch]

Cause you'll have to do list(dict.keys())[-1]

I cba

[minor totem]

There's dict.popitem() but that's popping at the end

[warm tulip]

helpp

[slate swan]

oh yeah its an O

[pliant gulch]

You could store the keys as well in the encapsulating class

That'll prob get rid of needing to call list()

But it'll be a total upgrade from the current deque

Which after all, the only reason it seemed to be used for is popping left

[minor totem]

WeakValueDictionary will be best so that you don't need to bother with keeping it up to date with the deque 👌

[ionic turtle]

read the documentation

[sick birch]

Wait, is the current message cache an iterable? As opposed to a hashmap?

[ionic turtle]

timeout is a method of cls: discord.Member

[slate swan]

well, the forks use dpy cache so it wont matter 🤡 .

[pliant gulch]

It's a deque

Hashmaps are iterable too

[sick birch]

Well yeah, I mean in the sense of a list/array

[minor totem]

Yes, it's a linked list. Removing a message from the cache literally iterates it to find it.

Nuh-uh.

No documentation found for the requested symbol.

Rip, anyways it belongs to the collections module

Someone must've put in a PR or an issue at least for this?

[cerulean folio]

@bot.command(name='add')

@cmd_add.error

      await ctx.send("You don't have access to this role")

Someone knows why this doesn't return the last message when someone uses it without role?

!d collections.deque

[unkempt canyon]

collections.deque

class collections.deque([iterable[, maxlen]])```
Returns a new deque object initialized left-to-right (using [`append()`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/collections.html#collections.deque.append "collections.deque.append")) with data from *iterable*. If *iterable* is not specified, the new deque is empty.

Deques are a generalization of stacks and queues (the name is pronounced “deck” and is short for “double-ended queue”). Deques support thread-safe, memory efficient appends and pops from either side of the deque with approximately the same O(1) performance in either direction.

Though [`list`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/stdtypes.html#list "list") objects support similar operations, they are optimized for fast fixed-length operations and incur O(n) memory movement costs for `pop(0)` and `insert(0, v)` operations which change both the size and position of the underlying data representation.

[ionic turtle]

ty

[slate swan]

complete the wrapper when

[sage otter]

Uppercase belongs to typing.

[pliant gulch]

Never

[ionic turtle]

oh generic version

[slate swan]

do it

[pliant gulch]

Maybe in CPP

[sick birch]

"approximately the same O(1) performance in either direction."?

[slate swan]

why not rust

[pliant gulch]

I suck at rust 😩

[minor totem]

That's not the whole story for the sake of performance though. Removing items from a dictionary may cause it to keep resizing and that would be terrible for performance

[maiden fable]

Write it with IronPython

[minor totem]

The deque is great because you can set a max_len and re-use memory from my understanding

[pliant gulch]

You can set a max length with what I showed as well

So it doesn't go past a certain amount of messages

[maiden fable]

Let's just sit in the back and eat popcorn

[wicked atlas]

current message cache system in discord.py slow, other methods faster

[maiden fable]

I also can't understand anything

[minor totem]

Google the terms you don't understand

[wicked atlas]

¯_(ツ)_/¯

[maiden fable]

Because its Danny 👀

[slate swan]

O(1)

[maiden fable]

First one

[slate swan]

less cpu operations.

[paper sluice]

i aspire to be O(1)

u output the stuff in constant time no matter how big the input is

[slate swan]

other libraries? no
we were talking about hikari lol

[shrewd apex]

...

[slate swan]

i feel its better than libs like hata.

[shrewd apex]

hello

[slate swan]

hey asher

[minor totem]

There's still a performance benefit to be had with deques. I guess my recommendation of a weakref dictionsry takes the downside of both though.

The fact that you pop the item after adding the new is making it worse though. You should pop first to free up that hash slot in the index.

[pliant gulch]

WeakRef would be good, but wouldn't that cause issues later on, or in some cases?

[slate swan]

better cache,
Is faster
more pythonic
strictly typed
multiple command handlers
you are not restricted to use gateway ( the thing we discussed earlier )
are a few of them

[ionic turtle]

dpy typing is fine tho? it lies well

[shrewd apex]

faster by how much?

[pliant gulch]

Actually, I don't think it'll cause much issue nevermind

[slate swan]

ctx.bot returns a BotT with no attributes of Bot heh?

ctrl + f for #type: ignores

[pliant gulch]

Gateway is a Websocket connection between you and discord

API calls are what is called when using discord.com/api/vX

[ionic turtle]

seems to return bot obj

[pliant gulch]

Using the gateway when you DON'T need it will end up costing you bandwith and other stuff

[slate swan]

print the type of it

[pliant gulch]

Yes

So does the API

[minor totem]

Yeah the issues it may cause depend on the implementation of it. ie. how it decides to handle expiring keys. We want to minimize resizing as much as possible.

[ionic turtle]

my bot class which supclasses commands.Bot

[minor totem]

BotT is a TypeVar. Discord.py is going crazy with generics atm

[pliant gulch]

iirc they have like 3 generics for a mixin

Or some other class I cba to remember

[slate swan]

try using ctx.bot in your ide.... and see if it will ever show an autocomplete

if you wanna use something like mypy, discord.py would be a hell

[ionic turtle]

ok well no one likes mypy

[minor totem]

If you don't use the gateway, you shouldn't be forced to use it.

Discord.py relies a lot on its cache and that would not stay relevant if you just use the REST API with no events incoming.

[pliant gulch]

Websockets are bi-directional, with the way it works, you need to send heartbeats every so often. You'll also receive data from the websocket, imagine having presences intents in a 5k+ Member guild, you'll get an event with DATA everytime they update their presence (very often), with rest only you don't receive any events, you only post, fetch, etc

The overheard that comes with the websocket will probably be adding onto that

With rest you really, realistically speaking need an aiohttp.ClientSession and your done

[slate swan]

version?

[ionic turtle]

2.0.0 git

master br

[pliant gulch]

Really, this just depends on whether or not you need a gateway connection

[slate swan]

i just rewrote a complete bot with mypy compatibility 👍 with hikari ofc
most people prefer mypy for strong type checking

[pliant gulch]

You should determine first of all, whether or not you need to be receiving events

[ionic turtle]

dpy uses pyright instead of mypy

pycharm pro

[pliant gulch]

Neovim

[slate swan]

hm, that used to happen in 1.7.3

vscode atm

[slate swan]

don't think that should matter, if the typing is correct for one, it should be good with the other too

am i right andy?

[minor totem]

You are, yes, but Mypy is a bit behind in the typing world

A lot of bugs and a lot less people fixing them

[ionic turtle]

yepp

[pliant gulch]

Mypy 👿 Pyright 😈

[slate swan]

I'll still keep it

[pliant gulch]

I'll get errors from mypy that pyright doesn't even flag

[slate swan]

is that bad?

[pliant gulch]

I have pyright on strict typing, so yes

[slate swan]

yeah

most of the errors i get comes from Optional[type].attributeS

[pliant gulch]

For good reason

[slate swan]

depends on ur command handler

lightbulb and crescent wont, optional in tanjun

lightbulb

why not use the setup_hook?

it has been working like Discord.py hybrid commamds for a long time, basically slash and prefix both under one function

well, that's a different story

its indeed a good thing

also, not something really impressive, but built-in paginators support

and the default help command generated is even more uwuer

[pliant gulch]

when dpy has builtin paginator

I've never seen anyone actually use it though kek

[slate swan]

you can do it the way you want, prefix only, slash only or both.

[slate swan]

thats just a text paginator no

yep, better than dpy

[pliant gulch]

What kind of paginators were you talking about

[slate swan]

they are called plugins

[slate swan]

Embed paginators ofc, who tf uses text based paginators

[pliant gulch]

Oh

[slate swan]

if you want client, use hikari.GatewayBot
if you want Bot, use some command handler and its Botclass

why not

it does but its hard

it does too

yea~

prefix commands is a command handler thing, so no

lemme tell in the most basic words
hikari = discord
a command handler = discord.ext.commands

i feel writing hikari = discord is illegal

[dim tapir]

fellas

[pliant gulch]

I'm assuming the bot class in the command handler latches onto GatewayBot

[dim tapir]

how would one run a async command without await

[pliant gulch]

Which is the same reason why you use discord.ext.commands instead of just discord for prefix commands\

[ionic turtle]

U cant

Unless like asyncio.run

[dim tapir]

perfectt

[errant coral]

Not to disturb but do someone know a code that deletes a voice channel after all people leave the channel?

[slate swan]

no?

oh nvm

the bot class of that library suclases GatewayBot

[dim tapir]

RuntimeError: asyncio.run() cannot be called from a running event loop

[quaint epoch]

you could just use on_voice_state_update, everytime a user leaves a channel, you join and check how many users there are, if there are only 1 (you) then you delete

[dim tapir]

    async def getImg(self, userURL):
        async with aiohttp.ClientSession() as session:
            async with session.get(str(userURL)) as resp:
                return Image.open(BytesIO(await resp.read()))

    img = asyncio.run(self.getImg(userAvatarUrl))

there is already a running event loop (dpy) and you're running asyncio.run again in it, so it won't work

instead maybe try await getImg()

[dim tapir]

i cant want to use await

on_timeout method

basically an async function called on_timeout under that class

Someone know why this doesn't return message on missing role? Just blocks the command and that's it

[slate swan]

whats the role variable, a list or something?

[cerulean folio]

a list of roles, each role is an integer

[torn sail]

try commands.MissingAnyRole

[slate swan]

you need to add a * before roles in the has_any_role

!pip hikari

[unkempt canyon]

hikari v2.0.0.dev108

A sane Discord API for Python 3 built on asyncio and good intentions

[slate swan]

nah thats optional lol

[cerulean folio]

AAAAH I'M SO STUPID THANK YOUUU HAHAHA

That worked ! ♥️

[torn sail]

👍

[cerulean folio]

oh sry sry not a list, it's a single role, because method takes args .has_any_role(*args) so each role will be sent and you separate with comma

[slate swan]

pip install hikari-lightbulb

[slate swan]

yeah... if it was a list of role ids you could just do has_any_role(*thelist)

not important, as said
hikari is like discord
lightbulb is like discord.ext.commands

like if you wanna make an embed so you will ofcourse use hikari to do that

¯_(ツ)_/¯

are you on mac/linux by any chance?

[dim tapir]

okay i dont feel like doing numba with PIL to keep my sanity

[uncut jacinth]

class Transfermoneybuttons(discord.ui.View):

            child.disabled=True
        await interaction.response.edit_message(view=self)

You know why this is not workin ive set the timeout to 20s eventho its like 3 minutes + the on_timeout isn't working

[slate swan]

see the error in your console

[uncut jacinth]

No error

Idk why but since i started using cogs no errors will show up

[slate swan]

you probably have a error handler which eats up ur error

any on_command_error events?

[uncut jacinth]

No

[slate swan]

/listeners?

[uncut jacinth]

No

Only on message and on ready

[dim tapir]

if you guys want dis feel free to use it

PIL and default standard sqlite

Dope.

[uncut jacinth]

?

[dim tapir]

modify it if u want 🙂

[eager bluff]

any way to only take the argument but still work if it doesn't have the argument?

for example, if there is an argument, it would use it, otherwise not

[dim tapir]

i havent done much research on async photo editing libraries

[uncut jacinth]

async def command(ctx, username: str="Blabla")

[eager bluff]

so if i did !update it would update me but if i did !update th it would update th

[uncut jacinth]

If no string is specified it will take Blabla

[eager bluff]

so can i do something like this

[uncut jacinth]

Yes

[eager bluff]

ofc not like that

[uncut jacinth]

Whats the argument self

[eager bluff]

but you know what i mean

[uncut jacinth]

Yes

You could replace it (Like you did) with another argument

Or just place in a string

This same works with
int=0, discord.Member=None

and more

[eager bluff]

so wait could i do this?

[uncut jacinth]

No

Wait i will send a code

[paper sluice]

no, u can set a default value, then check if its the default value and do something

like

def ...(ctx, val: str | None = None):
    if val is None:
        val = 'foo'

[eager bluff]

ohh so i would do if username=0 then username=message.author.nickname?

[uncut jacinth]

async def command(ctx, username: str=None):
    if username = None:
        username = ctx.author.nick

So that should work, You can also change it to message.author.nickname

or what ever you want

[eager bluff]

i kinda forgot what the better way to do this is

[uncut jacinth]

elif

@eager bluff

class Transfermoneybuttons(discord.ui.View):
    def __init__(self, amount, author, timeout=20):
        super().__init__(timeout=timeout)
        self.amount = amount
        self.author = author

    async def on_timeout(self, interaction: discord.Interaction):
        print(test)
        for child in self.children:
            child.disabled=True
        await interaction

Any body know why the on_timeout function does nothing, Not even a error?

[fading marlin]

why are you awaiting interaction? what's that supposed to do in your head?

[dim tapir]

ur literally just printing cadet

[uncut jacinth]

Ohh i didn't copy the whole code

[dim tapir]

consider using dicts

[uncut jacinth]

await interaction.response.edit_message(view=self)

[fading marlin]

you don't pass any args to on_timeout, and if you're not getting any errors, you probably have an eh that's eating it up

[uncut jacinth]

How can i fix that?

My english is very bad

[fading marlin]

fix what? errors not showing up or buttons not being disabled when on_timeout is called?

[uncut jacinth]

Buttons not being disabled

[fading marlin]

you'll have to set an attribute of the class to the message that was sent via a Messageable.send, and use that as your message-edit method

class View(...):
    async def on_timeout(self):
        await self.message.edit(view=self)

# in your command function
view = View()
message = await ctx.send(..., view=view)
view.message = message

[uncut jacinth]

So i tried this but after the timeout nothing happens

I even put a print("test") on start no response

nvm

await self.message.edit(view=self)
AttributeError: 'Transfermoneybuttons' object has no attribute 'message'

THis what happens

[fading marlin]

did you add a message attribute in your __init__?

[uncut jacinth]

like

self.message = self.message?

[eager bluff]

how would i do this but for administrators? admistrator_guild doesnt work

@has_permissions(manage_guild=True)

[uncut jacinth]

just administrator

[fading marlin]

None will do just fine

[uncut jacinth]

Ok

[eager bluff]

oh wait

[uncut jacinth]

super().init(timeout=timeout)
self.message = None

Right?

[eager bluff]

without guild?

[uncut jacinth]

Just put it Administrator

[fading marlin]

yes

[uncut jacinth]

AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'edit'

[fading marlin]

are you setting your view's message attr to the actual message like I showed here?

[uncut jacinth]

    @commands.command()
    async def transfer(self, ctx, amount: int=100):
        await open_account(ctx.author)
        users = await get_economy_data()
        
        message = await ctx.send(embed = embed,view=Transfermoneybuttons(amount, ctx.author))
        view.message = message

Thats right?

[fading marlin]

you're not defining view though

[uncut jacinth]

Ohh i just noticed

[uncut jacinth]

Still not working

[fading marlin]

traceback?

[uncut jacinth]

None

The command doesn't even work

anymore

[fading marlin]

show code

        users = await get_economy_data()
        embed = discord.Embed(title="Withdraw or Deposit", description=f"Choose if you want to withdraw or deposit `{amount}{moneycurrency}`")
        message = await ctx.send(embed = embed,view=Transfermoneybuttons(amount, ctx.author))
        view.message = message

class Transfermoneybuttons(discord.ui.View):
    def __init__(self, amount, author, timeout=10):
        super().__init__(timeout=timeout)
        view.message = None
        self.amount = amount
        self.author = author

    async def on_timeout(self):
        print("test")
        for child in self.children:
            print(child)
            child.disabled=True
        print("test")
        await self.message.edit(view=self)

[fading marlin]

again, you're not defining view

[uncut jacinth]

view.message = message??

Doesn't this define it?

[fading marlin]

no, python has no clue what view is, therefore it will have even less of a clue what view.message is

[uncut jacinth]

Ohh ok

[fading marlin]

when instantiating your ui.View class, assign it to a variable, and use that variable to set the .message attr

[uncut jacinth]

view=Transfermoneybuttons(amount, ctx.author)
``` do i have to replace this with view?

[fading marlin]

yes and wdym

[alpine cove]

lmao

[uncut jacinth]

Command still not working

[fading marlin]

let's see your updated code

[uncut jacinth]

@commands.command()
    async def transfer(self, ctx, amount: int=100):
        await open_account(ctx.author)
        users = await get_economy_data()
        view = View()
        embed = discord.Embed(title="Withdraw or Deposit", description=f"Choose if you want to withdraw or deposit `{amount}{moneycurrency}`")
        message = await ctx.send(embed = embed,view=Transfermoneybuttons(amount, ctx.author))
        view.message = message

[fading marlin]

in the example I showed you, View was a placeholder class for your actual view class (I'm assuming it's called Transfermoneybuttons (best practice to use camel-case for class naming too)), so your view = View() statement will error (no traceback is shown because you probably have an error handler that's eating up the traceback)

[uncut jacinth]

I have no error handler

idk why it doesn't show any errors

[fading marlin]

hmm, well either way, that's why your command is not functioning

[uncut jacinth]

I have prints in it

and it stops after the view variable

[fading marlin]

because the class View doesn't exist

[uncut jacinth]

No i changed it with Transfermoneybuttons

Ohh wait

[fading marlin]

did you pass in the required arguments to the class?

[uncut jacinth]

it think because i forgot the variables

[uncut jacinth]

still nothing

[fading marlin]

code?

[uncut jacinth]

@commands.command()
    async def transfer(self, ctx, amount: int=100):
        await open_account(ctx.author)
        print("1")
        users = await get_economy_data()
        print("1")
        view = Transfermoneybuttons(amount, ctx.author)
        print("1")
        embed = discord.Embed(title="Withdraw or Deposit", description=f"Choose if you want to withdraw or deposit `{amount}{moneycurrency}`")

        print("1")
        message = await ctx.send(embed = embed,view=view)
        view.message = message

stops after 2nd print

[fading marlin]

assuming you haven't changed anything here, what is view.message?

[uncut jacinth]

.

Didnt you said i should do that?

[fading marlin]

well yes, but that's in the command, not in the view

[uncut jacinth]

Its the command

[fading marlin]

that's the ui class?

[uncut jacinth]

No

class Transfermoneybuttons(discord.ui.View):
    def __init__(self, amount, author, timeout=10):
        super().__init__(timeout=timeout)
        view.message = None
        self.amount = amount
        self.author = author

    async def on_timeout(self):
        print("test")
        for child in self.children:
            print(child)
            child.disabled=True

Thats it

[fading marlin]

that's what I'm referring to

in line 4, you've got view.message = None, what's view?

do you mean self?

[uncut jacinth]

view = Transfermoneybuttons(amount, ctx.author)

could you change it?

so its right

[fading marlin]

^ ?

[uncut jacinth]

i think so

I dont really understand you because my english is very bad

Im also very new at programming and not experienced with discord.py

[fading marlin]

dpy isn't a really beginner-friendly library

[uncut jacinth]

so sorry, I thank you much but i dont think i understand it and i dont want to waste your time any more

[uncut jacinth]

I understand discord.py in the simple way but things like buttons get me really fast into trouble

[fading marlin]

it's fine. What's happening is that your trying to access view where it is not defined. Just replace view with self in the class and see where that takes you

[uncut jacinth]

still doesn't goes after

view = Transfermoneybuttons(amount, ctx.author)

@fading marlin

[slate swan]

dont call the deco

its just

@Bot.event

because it only takes 1 argument which is a coroutine object

[heady sluice]

@bot.event()
async def on_ready():
    ...

@bot.event(on_ready)
async def on_message(message):
    ...

siuu

[slate swan]

i made my lib kinda like that

@Bot.on("MESSAGE_CREATE")
async def example(payload: dict[str, "Any"]) -> None:
    ...

you can also use the enum

@Bot.on(GatewayEvents().MESSAGE_CREATE)
async def example(payload: dict[str, "Any"]) -> None:
    ...

i still have allot to do

how can i downgrade back to discord py 1

i do not like the new version

[slate swan]

you can uninstall 2.0 and just use 1.7.3 which is downloaded from pip
