• Show a code sample as text (rather than a screenshot) and the error message, if you've got one.
• Explain what you expect to happen and what actually happens.

[wet pier]

where python?

[tardy dust]

yes , run that in terminal

[wet pier]

nothings poppingu up

[rustic echo]

Try python -m pip install something

[tardy dust]

so you have installed python and neither python or py command works

this doesnt sound like a pyhton issue and more like an installation issue to me

can you tell me more about how you installed python ?

[tardy dust]

ohh so python does work

why didnt it show output for where python

[wet pier]

idk

[rustic echo]

Try python --version

python3 --version

[wet pier]

obvi that works

[plush radish]

Where did you install python from? python.org, right?

[wet pier]

ya

[silver nexus]

see the troubleshooting guide https://docs.python.org/3/using/windows.html#pymanager-troubleshoot

[wet pier]

i already tried everything

://

[rustic echo]

@j, is your issue not fixed?

[wet pier]

nope

[rustic echo]

what is it?

[wet pier]

idk

[silver nexus]

[rustic echo]

every tutorial didnt work tho

[rustic echo]

what's not working?

[wet pier]

tutorials

[rustic echo]

which tutorials?

[wet pier]

uh

pip install tuts

[silver nexus]

py and pymanager are both the same program under the hood the "Python Installation Manager"

py - This is the primary command name, but it can potentially conflict with existing aliases
pymanager - This is an unambiguous alternative name for the same Python Installation Manager

[rustic echo]

what's tuts?

[wet pier]

https://www.bing.com/videos/riverview/relatedvideo?q=how+to+install+python+pip\]&&mid=68B5C2C2BEE81B51E14D68B5C2C2BEE81B51E14D&FORM=VRDGAR

idk what else

[rustic echo]

pip is already installed in python, btw.

[wet pier]

[silver nexus]

[tribal trellis]

true tho

[wet pier]

its a discord thing

[tribal trellis]

discord bot?

[wet pier]

kinda

no a panel thingy

[rustic echo]

where do you find this project?

[wet pier]

its js discord.py

[rustic echo]

from GitHub? link please?

so, that i can see how to run it.

[wet pier]

https://pypi.org/project/discord.py/

from here

https://github.com/Rapptz/discord.py or here

[tribal trellis]

oh but that's not how that works

[wet pier]

it js opens and closes

[tribal trellis]

nonono

that's not how it works

[wet pier]

how do i run it

[tribal trellis]

it's not a single file

you cant just run it

[wet pier]

how do people have it working

[tribal trellis]

so... these are packages

[rustic echo]

They use Python to code it up.

see import discord

[tribal trellis]

you can install them with pip install package

[wet pier]

how do i use it

i cant install pip

[tribal trellis]

you should have pip

it comes by default

[rustic echo]

python -m pip install -U "discord.py[voice]"

[wet pier]

wow

[rustic echo]

the thing is you don't have py, you have python. that's it

[wet pier]

its working?

[tribal trellis]

have you ever touched python?

[wet pier]

uh how do i open

[tribal trellis]

or first time

[tribal trellis]

you can go to your first.py file

and do import discord at the top

then you can work with it

[wet pier]

now i need

\colorama

[tribal trellis]

same thing

pip install command

[wet pier]

can u giv

[rustic echo]

python -m pip install -U colorama

[wet pier]

how do i open single files

[rustic echo]

python filename.py

[wet pier]

filename what

[rustic echo]

the name of "single file"

[wet pier]

it dont work

[tribal trellis]

what are you trying to do here...?

you cannot open discord.py

or colorama

like that

[wet pier]

ik

dc bot

[tribal trellis]

is this your first time using python?

[wet pier]

yeah

[tribal trellis]

hmmm, I strongly encourage you to do some basics first

instead of straight up jumping into discord bot

[wet pier]

i needa open single apps

[tribal trellis]

but discord.py does not provide you a bot out of the get-go

[wet pier]

i need a single .py

[rustic echo]

yeah, first copy that "single file" to vscode, btw

vscode folder in Documents.

[tribal trellis]

be more precise...

[wet pier]

okay

[tribal trellis]

you want to make a bot...right?

[wet pier]

noo

[tribal trellis]

or do you have a bot from someone else?

[wet pier]

actually its js discord mods

[tribal trellis]

okay...

so you have code from a friend or?

[wet pier]

yeah

well

i js need his user id

got it now wha

[tribal trellis]

what?

[wet pier]

idk

so

[tribal trellis]

yes?

[wet pier]

[wet pier]
