defer ephemeral?

from disnake.ext import commands
import disnake


class CooldownCog(commands.Cog):
    def __init__(self, bot: commands.Bot):
        self.bot = bot

    @commands.Cog.listener(name="on_slash_command_error")
    async def slash_command_on_cooldown(self,
                                        inter: disnake.ApplicationCommandInteraction,
                                        error: commands.CommandError):
        if isinstance(error, commands.CommandOnCooldown):
            # await inter.delete_original_response()
            await inter.send(str(error))


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

I have this code to respond to a user if a command is in cooldown. It is guaranteed that there was an inter.response.defer() before it, but unknown ephemeral. I need to get a boolean ephemeral to modify or delete and send the response.

my solve:

print((await inter.original_response()).flags.ephemeral)

Solved!

as this fetches the message, a better way would be to check the inter.response.type

compare with

-d disnake.InteractionResponseType

[pine valve]

disnake.InteractionResponseType

class disnake.InteractionResponseType```
Specifies the response type for the interaction.

New in version 2.0.

if it's any of the types that start with deferred_, you'll know the interaction was deferred

[brisk bone]

thx!

[brisk bone]

Wait. So I don't need to check the defer or not, but the ephemeral state of the defer.

[west needle]

oh fuck, yeah, my bad

hmm, this'd be a lot easier if we supported custom interaction classes
