Basic Pycord Help

[shell radish]

how are you hosting your bot

[coral lake]

Currently local as I try to understand Command Cogs

Just running straight from VSC

[shell radish]

does the bot just not run

or does it "break" after some time

[coral lake]

So, the bot starts up, as it prints "Logged in as testoor#2791 (ID: 1090496264912773185)
------"
But when I kill the program, it throws the RuntimeError.

Correction the bot does come online

[shell radish]

ok, so that's supposed to happen?

you crashed your own bot

[coral lake]

Well, the issue is that the extensions are only being loaded once I nuke the bot

And I have NO CLUE why

So, here's another way I tried to break it down:

EXTENTIONS = ["cogs.wallet_verify"]

intents = discord.Intents.all()
bot = discord.Bot(intents = intents)


for extension in EXTENTIONS:
    bot.load_extension(extension) 
    pass

print(bot.extensions)

@bot.event
async def on_ready():
    print("Bot is ready")

#Restart Bot
@bot.slash_command()
async def restart(ctx):
    print("hello_dally")

bot.run(TOKEN) #Cherub```

When I nuke, it prints "Cogs Loaded"

and throws RuntimeError

[shell radish]

EXTENTIONS = ["cogs.wallet_verify"]

class PersistentViewBot(commands.Bot):
    def __init__(self):
        intents = discord.Intents.all()
        super().__init__(command_prefix=commands.when_mentioned_or("!"), intents=intents)
        self.persistent_views_added = False

-       for extension in EXTENTIONS:
-           bot.load_extension(extension) 
-       print(bot.extensions)

    async def on_ready(self):
        if not self.persistent_views_added:
            #self.add_view(Create_Team())
            self.persistent_views_added = True

bot = PersistentViewBot()

+ for extension in EXTENTIONS:
+   bot.load_extension(extension) 
+ print(bot.extensions)

perhaps

oh

I also don't see why you would use if __name__ == "__main__":

if you are just going to ignore it

[coral lake]

Agreed - it's unnecessary and unrelated tbh

I can just take that out

[coral lake]

Updated for clarity, but still doesn't change the current issues, of course

I can't comprehend how it's able to run the bot without hitting the print statement, even. Much less why it DOES drop it when I stop the program

[coral lake]

Problem solved...I had bot.run in my module program

[shell radish]

nested bot running 💀

[coral lake]

BIG Fs bro.
thx for helping as always, yo!

Application Commands Not Showing Up?

• Uninstall libraries that conflict with the discord namespace (e.g. discord.py).
• Invite your bot with the application.commands scope.
• Load cogs before bot.run() (e.g. not in on_ready).
• Do not override on_connect.
• Update to the newest version of py-cord (see ?tag install).
• Turn off User Settings > Accessibility > Chat Input > Use legacy chat input.
• Share your code and errors.

AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'send'
i am legit sick and tired of getting this error over and over again
i keep getting this error when trying to send a message in a specific channel

BOTLOG_CHANNEL_ID = 1234567890
botLog = client.get_channel(BOTLOG_CHANNEL_ID)
await botLog.send("hi")

i tried using fetch_channel(id) instead of get_channel(id) but i got hit with this error instead:
TypeError: can't send non-None value to a just-started coroutine
i searched the internet, couldn't find anything

anyone knows how to fix this?

it was working in another bot, idk why its not working here

[subtle moth]

You might have not awaited the fetch_channel() method

botLog = await fetch_channel(id)

[solid turtle]

oh

lemme try

[little cobalt]

?tag get_x

[limber wagon]

Any function that starts with get_ in Py-cord is retrieving the related object from your bots cache. If the object is not in the bots cache the get_ method will return None. Because of this behavior you should check if the get_x method is None and if it is use the fetch_x method.

Why Is Using fetch_ Without Using get_ First Bad?
The fetch_ method makes a call to the discord API. This API call is unneeded if you already have the information. It will also make your command take longer because it will have to send and than wait for a response from the discord API. It will also contribute to the discord APIs global rate limit of 50 requests per second.

What Is Cache?
The cache is a temporary storage inside your bot. It holds many objects from members to messages. When you restart your bot the cache will be empty. When the cache is full it will delete older objects to make space for the new objects.

[solid turtle]

worked flawlessly

ty

[solid turtle]

:OO

so like:

botLog = client.get_channel(ID)
async def test(ctx):
  botLog = await client.fetch_channel(ID)
  await botLog.send("hi")

[solid turtle]

something like that?

correct me if i'm wrong lol

[subtle moth]

if the entire thing is within an async function you don't need to create a new one,

botLog = client.get_channel(ID)
if botLog is None:
    botLog = await client.fetch_channel(ID)
await botLog.send("balls")

@solid turtle

[solid turtle]

nah the get_channel() line is out of the async function

anyways thanks jiggly balls

[little cobalt]

channel = client.get_channel(123)
match channel:
  case None:
    channel = await client.fetch_channel(123)

;3

[red mist]

I thought this was an insult LOL

AHAHh

[solid turtle]

all my life i had never knew that match was a keyword

[little cobalt]

you can also use ; for one liners

async def test(ctx: discord.ApplicationContext):
  await \
  ctx.respond \
  ("text")

you can do so much weird stuff with python xd

[red mist]

also unnecessary stuff

(I am trying to find my uselss Hello World program I once wrote)

[solid turtle]

damn

why is this a thing

in what scenario would this even be helpful

.

[little cobalt]

the \ stuff?

[red mist]

when your lines are too long

[little cobalt]

^

[solid turtle]

ooh

so it counts as one line if they are joined by \ ?

[little cobalt]

yes

[red mist]

print("Imagine writing a super long extended message that wont fit on your screen because this is getting ridiculously long just wait lol xd UwU OwO the mommy is the queen the daddy went to get milk and I am crying in my corner of shame because I am the voxy and idk what to do with my life, see how long it gets now do you?")

[solid turtle]

my brother in Christ

[red mist]

See

[solid turtle]

are you alright?

[red mist]

Yes

Demonstration :)

[solid turtle]

can they also be used to join strings as well

[red mist]

Well you could just add string but yes

essentially it does work

[solid turtle]

print("a sentence \
more words \
more more words \
end"

:OOOO

[little cobalt]

print("Hello World"); print("Hello World 2")

that would also work

[solid turtle]

yea that's pretty useless

would only be useful if youre trying to save lines or something

[little cobalt]

and no its not at one line at the terminal

[red mist]

thats 2 lines?

damn ok

[solid turtle]

eh

damn

i should learn more python

[red mist]

same

[solid turtle]

been learning python for 3+ years but didn't know this shi existed

[little cobalt]

the match case stuff it kinda new to python

[red mist]

I didnt know the ; existed lol

[little cobalt]

it got added at 3.10

[solid turtle]

o

[solid turtle]

im still using the 3.9 lmao

hasnt the 3.12 released already

[little cobalt]

ye

dont use it

[red mist]

Wait until the libs update lul

[solid turtle]

i heard we can use the same string terminators in f strings

[little cobalt]

I use 3.11

[red mist]

same

3.11.3 ?

[solid turtle]

yea lmao

[little cobalt]

3.11 ;3

3.11.0

[little cobalt]

so just 3.11

[red mist]

3.11.3

.3

0.0.3 versions ahead of you

[solid turtle]

:O

its 3 am i need sleep

havent slept in 2 days + school in 5 hours

😴

[red mist]

good night

also

I just wrote a new one ig

[solid turtle]

yea no im not sleeping

[red mist]

import time, random

def main():
    hello_world_list = ["H", "e", "l", "l", "o", ",", " ", "w", "o", "r", "l", "d", "!"]
    hello_world_string = ""
    for char in hello_world_list:
        ascii_code = ord(char)
        binary_code = bin(ascii_code)
        hex_code = hex(int(binary_code, 2))
        new_char = chr(int(hex_code, 16))
        hello_world_string += new_char
        time.sleep(random.uniform(0.1, 1))
    print(hello_world_string)

if __name__ == "__main__":
    main()

[red mist]

why

ok wait lemme eval it for you

there u go big man

[solid turtle]

wgat

[red mist]

now sleep

[solid turtle]

what is the point

[red mist]

there is no point

its useless

[solid turtle]

cudnt you just print "heelo world!"

[red mist]

I could

but

why do it that easy

if it can be done complicated

[solid turtle]

easy promotion

[solid turtle]

project

submit

tmr

havent done shit yet

[red mist]

Boy

start working.

5 hours.

[solid turtle]

• its not even related to computer science

[red mist]

now

go

fucking go

[solid turtle]

OK

[little cobalt]

you can just run python --version

[little cobalt]

UwU

[red mist]

I want

I swear to god

I want

[shell radish]

should've done

import time, random

def main():
    hello_world_list = ["H", "e", "l", "l", "o", ",", " ", "w", "o", "r", "l", "d", "!"]
    hello_world_string = ""
-   for char in hello_world_list:
-       ascii_code = ord(char)
+   for index in range(len(hello_world_list):

        binary_code = bin(ascii_code)
        hex_code = hex(int(binary_code, 2))
        new_char = chr(int(hex_code, 16))

        time.sleep(random.uniform(0.1, 1))
    print(hello_world_string)

if __name__ == "__main__":
    main()

[red mist]

Please I beg you include py in that cuz I cannot read it on phone

[shell radish]

don't then

[red mist]

Ohhh now I see

Thank you

[round girder]

having issues with the paginator raising 403 being unable to edit itself. none of my other commands that perform edits get these errors. any known issues? please @ me, this is quite frustrating.

[glad spoke]

You'll have to share the code to get help with this.

[grizzled loom]

there is tons of possible reasons. simplest ones is when your bot sends a paginator message, user looks at it, is done looking, delets the message, then your bot tries to edit.
shortage of permissions is also a possible reson. settings for the room can mess it up.

but in general; @glad spoke 's advice is best: share the code in question and the error message you get and people will try to help.

[shadow violet]

Is it possible to add .webm image to an embed or is it treated the same way as videos (so not allowed)?
I'm trying to figure out why they're not being displayed despite correct url

[little cobalt]

image only

or gif

[round girder]

@glad spoke
the error is occuring within the pagination file. the traceback does not reference my files

[lofty hedge]

can you do alias for slash commands

[shell radish]

nope

[lofty hedge]

shame

[heavy sapphire]

hey !
with this py str(bot.fetch_user(sentances[sentance][sentance_]["author"]))
that print
<coroutine object Client.fetch_user at 0x000001C892352A40>
why ? and how can i have name please?

[subtle moth]

The function was never awaited hence it doesn't know the user yet

user = await bot.fetch_user(...)
print(user)

[heavy sapphire]

oh ok thanks ❤️

[devout mirage]

erm does py-cord-dev change the import name for discord

[little cobalt]

No

Do you have something else installed?

[devout mirage]

vacefron.py==2.0.3
aiofiles==23.1.0
randseal==3.3.1
roleplaycog==1.0.2
py-cord-dev==2.5.0rc5
jishaku==2.5.1
advlink==0.1.0
typing-extensions==4.5.0
Pillow==9.4.0
PyNaCl==1.5.0
aiodns==3.0.0
brotlipy==0.7.0
youtube-dl==2021.12.17
Babel==2.11.0

[shell radish]

probably just uninstall and reinstall

it is likely that something went awry when installing

[devout mirage]

acting up more now

runs fine, vscode doesnt like the dev release ig

[fallow crescent]

Hey friends. Just confirming something I asked before - how often may my bot DM a user that initiated a DM?
Am worried about the bot getting flagged as spam by Discord.

[lofty parcel]

I don't think you'll get flagged unless you massively send dms to multiple people.

[fallow crescent]

I was hoping to rely on the fact that since the user first DM'd the bot and not the other way around it wouldn't be flagged at all.
Is there a definition somewhere for what counts as "massively send"ing DMs?

[lofty parcel]

You could email discord support and get a better answer.

[fallow crescent]

Oh, I didn't know you can mail them about such things. What a lovely idea, thank you.

[hybrid fossil]

Hi there!
I need the global_name of discord.Member.
So I have to use the Master branch. Obviously an update has been made because I have an error.

[floral ice]

when my command takes longer to execute it times out

[lofty parcel]

I'd reinstall the lib

[lofty parcel]

Because interactions are supposed to take less than 3 seconds. Otherwise, you need to defer it.

[floral ice]

how can i fix it?

[lofty parcel]

Read the last sentence.

[floral ice]

how do i defer it?

[lofty parcel]

If you're in a slash command, await ctx.defer()

[floral ice]

nvm found it

ty

[fallow crescent]

Hey, just thought I'd follow up on this. Their support said they cannot comment on what exactly are their limitations, but that you should be fine if you follow this: https://discord.com/developers/docs/policy#don’t-do-anything-illegal-harmful-or-otherwise-not-cool

[lofty parcel]

I'm surprised by their fast response lol.

[fallow crescent]

Same!

[solar arrow]

I got an error:
'''
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/home/[username redacted]/searchcord/test.py", line 6, in <module>
bot = discord.Bot()
AttributeError: module 'discord' has no attribute 'Bot'
'''

[fallow crescent]

isn't Bot specifically in discord.ext.commands?

discord.ext.commands.Bot()

[hybrid fossil]

??

I've rebooted my machine, I have the problem, I'm working on the Master, how will deleting and reinstalling help me?

[little cobalt]

Show the pip list pls?

[little cobalt]

?tag clients

[limber wagon]

No tag clients found.

[little cobalt]

?tag client

[limber wagon]

discord.Client # just for events
discord.Bot # events + slash/user/msg commands
commands.Bot # above + prefixed commands
bridge.Bot # above + bridge commands (application commands and text commands in one)

[lofty parcel]

Because something messed up?... how will restarting your PC magically fix the library?

Also show your pip list.

[solar arrow]

I decided to just use "%" commands

also I fixed it

[fallow crescent]

Are there any rate limit guarantees by py-cord? Or should I do some rate limiting in my own code?

[hybrid fossil]

requests~=2.31.0
mysql-connector-python~=8.1.0
git+https://github.com/Pycord-Development/pycord
importlib-metadata
prettytable~=3.8.0
aiohttp~=3.8.4
pytz

[little cobalt]

That is not the pip list

[hybrid fossil]

Normal it's on my server, I haven't changed anything, the problem, in my opinion, comes from the master branch.

[little cobalt]

Dont use requests

[lapis dock]

Pycord should handle any rate limits discord warns about. I do not think that discord warns about DM rate limits though. Just make sure that you do not send 10+ unsolicited DMs at a time I would say.

[lapis dock]

Can you try using the dev version instead.

#library-updates message

[hybrid fossil]

Is the global_name already there?

[lapis dock]

I am fairly confident

[fallow crescent]

Thanks! Sounds like a good rule.

[hybrid fossil]

Thank you! It's working again.
So there is a problem with the master.

[edgy glen]

How many embeds could i sent in one message?

[lofty parcel]

10 embeds according to the d.js docs.

[little cobalt]

Can you show the pip list?

[little cobalt]

the loads is weird

[edgy glen]

Yeah

[little cobalt]

uninstall py-cord and install py-cord-dev

[edgy glen]

Thats the branche before

Got the same issue

Thats the reason why i installed py-cord

[little cobalt]

?

py-cord-dev is the newest version

[edgy glen]

I installed py-cord-dev.
Then i got the error
then i uninstalled py-cord-dev

Then i installed py-cord
Then i got the error too

[little cobalt]

do you use an env?

[edgy glen]

No

[little cobalt]

can you try it with a env?

[edgy glen]

Why

There should come the same issue

[little cobalt]

Its weird

[edgy glen]

Env is only a virtual env localy in an other directory. So there should be the same issue

[shell radish]

Pretty sure something went wrong with your python install

[little cobalt]

ye

[shell radish]

json is an stblib

[edgy glen]

XD

[shell radish]

standard library

that comes installed with python

[edgy glen]

Yeah

[little cobalt]

do you use the microsoft store one or the .exe from the website?

[edgy glen]

The exe

But the error came from the discord / was thrown from the discord library

[shell radish]

I don't use windows so probably just re-install python tbh

[little cobalt]

Run the installer .exe and try a repair or do a fresh install of it

[shell radish]

this isn't a pycord problem. It's a python/installation issue

[edgy glen]

When u take a look to the screenshot 😂

Okay

But weird anyway

[shell radish]

halloween spoooooky

[edgy glen]

🤣

[little cobalt]

xd

[edgy glen]

I'm keeping the same issue

[little cobalt]

What is the python version?

[edgy glen]

3.11.6

I installed python again.
I downloaded the x64 Windows installer.
Then added the tick to "Add python.exe to path" and then clicked "Install now"

Then I installed py-cord-dev and the error is still the same

[shell radish]

does import json and json.loads() even work

[edgy glen]

idk

But I fixed the error with using the embed description instead of the footer

But thats a crazy weird no sense fix 😂

[shell radish]

that's not the source of the issue, but ok

[coral lake]

There's no stage channel chat support? :O

[coral lake]

I'm blind? :O

[shell radish]

it's on the pre-release

[coral lake]

ohh I see

[shell radish]

you can always use discord.PartialChannel.send

or PartialMessageable

something like that

[pure carbon]

Hi! What are the correct permissions to send message in a channel, and is there any channel-specific configuration that needs to be set?

message: discord.Message = await channel.send(message_content)

This command is returning a 403 permission denied error. However, this only happens in a particular server. Other two servers that I have the bot it works just fine. I'm pulling my hairs our trying to figure this out, so if you have any pointers for me I'd be very thankful!

For reference, those are the permissions I request

[edgy glen]

If your bot doesn't have the permission at the specific channel which you want to send the message then the bot will not be able to send it to the channel

[pure carbon]

Got it. Does the server admin have to do anything special other than accepting the default invite?
The invite does request for permission to send messages and send messages in threads.

[edgy glen]

No, the admin only needs to invite the bot.
If he doesn't remove the tick from the permissions which you requested or remove the permissions for the bot at channel which you want to send the message to, then you should be fine

- Can developers create an own activity while using the discord activity shelf?```

[pure carbon]

They didn't untick that, and they don't have 2FA enabled (I saw that matters for some permissions). The bot works correctly in other servers.
I'll see if I can play around in a private server, find a way to deny that permission, and reverse engineer my way from there

[edgy glen]

Do you have any question in this message? 😄

Or is it just a simple text message?

[pure carbon]

No question there! Was just looking to provide closure to our conversation and not leave you hanging. Thanks for the help!

[edgy glen]

No prob ^^

[atomic fern]

do embed field value has maximum characters? or unlimited?

[brave arch]

Yo! Is there a way to get user locale when said user instance is fetched via fetch_user / get_or_fetch_user? Type hints show that it returns type User, which doesn't have locale on it, only ClientUser has

[shell radish]

locale only comes with the interation object

[brave arch]

unfortunate

[cerulean sun]

any event listener for when somebody comments on a thread? or have to use on_message?

[shell radish]

message event is the way

[obsidian light]

Anyone know why my bot stops working after first using a @bot.event command then a @bot.command() command? I added the await bot.process_commands(ctx)

[lofty parcel]

Show your code

[obsidian light]

My desktop wouldn't let me

[little cobalt]

why do you have bot.process_commands(ctx) at the command?

[obsidian light]

Oh idk

I think I was testing

Yeah, it still completely stops after saying that command in discord

[shell radish]

the bot.process_commands should be outside of the if statement

[obsidian light]

OH

Thank you

[shell radish]

and it shouldn’t be anywhere else

[obsidian light]

Thank you very much it works now.

[grim estuary]

What is the best database to use for the bot, where the information should be stored like this:
{id: {map: {property1: value, property2: value, property3: value}, inventory: {property1: value, property2: value, property3: value}, anykey: value}, anyid: dict}

[junior ember]

how do i like

make a command have attachments

like its mandatory to add an attachment

[lapis dock]

Pass discord.Attachment as the option type

[coral lake]

Is there any way to pass data when loading a bot extension BEFORE the cog starts up?

I'm attempting to dynamically name my slash command group based on the bot that's loading the extension, but I'm having trouble finding a way to do that before startup

[red mist]

You could try on_connect

[coral lake]

Will give this a shot, thanks! Just playing with the def setup(bot) rq to see if there's any path to success there either :)

[red mist]

👍

[coral lake]

Got it running in def setup(bot) by simply assigning the bot.user.name variable to bot.str_name before loading extensions (since only the bot object is passed at that stage.

[red mist]

Oh you could do that too

[coral lake]

I just learned today that you could even assign variables to objects in that manner...that is fucking cool ahahah

^forgib my noob

[little cobalt]

you can even create a full custome help command with the cogs

[red mist]

Me failing to do that yet again:

[hazy turret]

Hello everyone,

With a slash command, you can't have the options generated dynamically, can you?
Does anyone have an idea how I can best solve this if I want to specify users for a slash command but the number of users is always different?
So it can be that one time 5 users have to be specified and the next time 10 and the next time only 7.
Does anyone have a good idea for this implementation?
Thanks in advance! 🙂

[rugged lodge]

Here's the slash autocomplete example.

[coral lake]

oof...this didn't work how I thought it was...back to the drawing boarding on this issue. on_connect() not seeming to get to the SlashCommandGroup fast enough either

[hazy turret]

But I can't select several users in the Autocomplete like in a Select Menu, can I?
I have to create an autocomplete for each user I want to add, but I can't create them dynamically.

[opal hamlet]

how do i properly make a button owner only? because a non owner was still able to use the button

[little cobalt]

you would have to check for the id

or if the user who pressed it is the same as the owner

[opal hamlet]

so no fancy decorator?

[little cobalt]

buttons are not like commands

[opal hamlet]

that... is a fair argument

as i already have a list of owners, i assume a simplepy if interaction.author.id in owners:should do it?

[little cobalt]

you get the bot owner id with interaction.client.owner_id change owner_id to owner_ids if you set more than one id to it

[red mist]

Is it possible to add 2 discord.ui.select 's to a command?

And if yes, how because I havent got the slightest of idea how.

[coral lake]

You add discord.ui.Selects to views. Class discord.ui.Select twice, add both to your view, and add the view to your message

---

Can I make @self.points.command() work in this structure in any way, or do I have to lose the decorator and actually build the command?

class Economy(commands.Cog):
    def __init__(self, bot):
        global points_identifier
        self.bot = bot
        print("init")
    
        self.points = SlashCommandGroup(name=points_identifier, description=f"All commands related to {points_identifier}")
        self.advanced = self.points.create_subgroup("management", f"Manage {points_identifier} system")

    def create_commands(self):
        @self.points.command()
        async def add(self, ctx):
          print("function")```

[red mist]

Like this?

class MyView(discord.ui.View):
    def __init__(self):
        super().__init__()
        self.add_item(discord.ui.Select(
            placeholder='Choose your color', 
            min_values=1, 
            max_values=1, 
            options=[
                discord.SelectOption(label='Red', description='Your favorite color is red', emoji='🔴'),
                discord.SelectOption(label='Green', description='Your favorite color is green', emoji='🟢'),
                discord.SelectOption(label='Blue', description='Your favorite color is blue', emoji='🔵'),
            ]
        ))
        self.add_item(discord.ui.Select(
            placeholder='Choose your shape', 
            min_values=1, 
            max_values=1, 
            options=[
                discord.SelectOption(label='Circle', description='Your favorite shape is a circle', emoji='⭕'),
                discord.SelectOption(label='Square', description='Your favorite shape is a square', emoji='🟩'),
                discord.SelectOption(label='Triangle', description='Your favorite shape is a triangle', emoji='🔺'),
            ]
        ))

    @discord.ui.select(custom_id="select1")
    async def on_color_select(self, select: discord.ui.Select, interaction: discord.Interaction):
        await interaction.response.send_message(f'You selected {select.values[0]} as your favorite color!')

    @discord.ui.select(custom_id="select2")
    async def on_shape_select(self, select: discord.ui.Select, interaction: discord.Interaction):
        await interaction.response.send_message(f'You selected {select.values[0]} as your favorite shape!')

class flavor(Cog):

    @add_to_group(get_current_folder())
    @discord.slash_command(name="flavor", description="testing select menu's")
    async def flavor(self, ctx: discord.ApplicationContext):
        await ctx.respond("Choose a flavor!", view=MyView())

def setup(bot):
    bot.add_cog(flavor(bot))

I am genuinely confused.

Oh wait I think I understand but fk I gotta go rn

brb

[coral lake]

No, you either create entirely seperate classes for the discord.ui.Selects (in the same manner that you class discord.ui.View) or you simply add your perameters to the @discord.ui.Select constructor to do everything within the view class.

The difference is that, when subclassing 2 new discord.ui.Selects, you get to use the view's class variables in those select classes (you cannot use class variables in constructors).

[coral lake]

I guess I can just subclass the slash commands? That sounds extra annoying...but if I did..is there a decorator to assign the slash commands within a SlashCommandGroup class?

Scratch that...can't add items to commands.Cog...so idk if there's actually any way to do this at all

[noble flax]

Is it possible to have a bot watch for a discord event and ping everyone on the interested list when the event starts?

(can't believe this isn't base functionality in discord)

[coral lake]

Wait, it should do that already, no?

[noble flax]

I've never seen it occur...

Ever

[coral lake]

I get them all the time, personally

Nonetheless, it's not an @ ping

So there's no trace other than the initial noti AFAIK

[noble flax]

Hmmm question still stands then 🤣

But cheers for pointing that out

[coral lake]

https://docs.pycord.dev/en/stable/api/models.html#discord.ScheduledEvent.subscribers

Should be able to get get user.mention objects from this list and ping away

But yea, if anyone has ideas on how you could dynamically change the name of a Slash command cog group based on data from the Bot that is loading the module, please let me know.

The big issue is that it has to happen before the class is created...which might be impossible.

[real raft]

How can I host a Pycord bot? Although Pycord is specified in the "requirements.txt", the bot always starts without Pycord, which is why all cogs do not work
Everything works fine locally via Pycharm

[lofty parcel]

Show your reqs file

And where are you hosting your bot?

[lofty parcel]

Dumb question, why does your command name need to be dynamic?

[real raft]

I have tried various online host portals

[lofty parcel]

You have discord and discord.py

You only use py-cord... remove the other libraries...

[real raft]

thanks, i try this

[lofty parcel]

Why would you install 3 libraries to do the same

[coral lake]

It's a LITTLE silly tbh, but I create bot modules for varying clients, and I simply want them to have personalized command names.

Otherwise, there's this potential where calling their community currency a "token" or "points" could be confusing to them or the end user. :/

[real raft]

bc nothing worked and i added more to look if this works

[coral lake]

That's usually the source of these issues. They don't play well together. :)

[lofty parcel]

How adding extra libraries will make it work lmao

[lofty parcel]

And how you load the module?

[real raft]

Discord and py-cord only?

[lofty parcel]

As in, what gives the names?

[lofty parcel]

No, just py-cord

[real raft]

does py-cord include discord?

[lofty parcel]

No?

Discord is just another library

A total different library

[coral lake]

Well, the idea is to find a way to get the bot name or ANY variabnle from the bot BEFORE the commands.Cogs class is created. If I can do this, I can use that data to access a JSON that is named according to that data to get that particular servers choice of name for their "currency"

[real raft]

I'm pretty new to this kind of thing. still learning

[coral lake]

But as is, I can't figure out ANY way to get that data dynamically before the actual class is created.

And since you can't subclass commands.Cogs....I'm kinda at a loss

[lofty parcel]

Then you shouldnt be coding a discord bot, you should be learning the python basics.

Wdym

[coral lake]

NGL though, Discord bots can be a great learning tool

[lofty parcel]

You can subclass cogs

[real raft]

I know the Python basics. The best way to learn is to apply the basics, for example with a Discord Bot

[coral lake]

not using self.add_item though, ye?

[lofty parcel]

What I think of is, creating the command manually (so the name is dynamic), assigning it the callback manually and adding it manually

[lofty parcel]

A discord bot isn't a beginners project.

[coral lake]

I think this is the only way, but admittedly, I couldn't figure out how to subclass it without the decorator >.<

Since I couldn't use self.add_item, that is

[lofty parcel]

Subclass the command you mean?

I mean, if you manually create it

Then you add it to the bot manually

With uh bot.add_application_command or something like that

[coral lake]

Ohh, I see what you're saying - yea, tbh, that should work

I'll give that a go

[lofty parcel]

Yeah good luck lol

[real raft]

I've done a few projects like rpgs, web-scrapper and the like. but I've never used databases. neither used it to host something

[coral lake]

I learned Python entirely through Discord bots. From the conversation above, you can tell I'm still a fucking noob. However, I have learned a TON through developing Discord bots. I wouldn't be discouraged from it as a beginner. Do whatever keeps you interested in learning - that's my take on it.

But it can be irritating for people who are more experienced because we do miss the basics more often...which...is frustrating for everyone.

[real raft]

I also got the Discord Bot working and am just having problems hosting it. What is the problem?

why such dumb answers bruh

[coral lake]

???

[real raft]

i mean dark

[coral lake]

I thought that was a pretty uplifting answer

https://tenor.com/view/anime-shrug-maybe-i-dont-know-gif-14913933

[real raft]

That's exactly what I mean. The best way to learn is to use what you have learnt. Whether it's Discord bots or Minecraft plugins. It doesn't matter

[real raft]

Found the error. I had mixed up too much in the regs.txt, now it works.

[coral lake]

Solved - create a DB in main.py and write a request to a table on startup with autoincrement ID and bot name. Module checks latest DB entry before creating the commands.Cogs class and successfully acquires the user data. 👍

[lofty parcel]

Glad you figured it out

[red mist]

that took longer than expected.

[red mist]

I think I fixed it tho thank you-

[opal hamlet]

got any tips/code examples for handling ext too large for a single embed/embed field? dont wanna send em in masses

[red mist]

Yes yes it did

[red mist]

Add fields :P

Wait

nvm

I read

but not think

[red mist]

I dont know what other option you have my man

[opal hamlet]

what's Paginator again... does it make pages? maybe that'd be it

[red mist]

Oh

you wanna edit the embed?

[opal hamlet]

if worst comes to worst

edit embed > 5embeds in a message

its for a webscraped member list of a game faction, it will look like shit if too long

[coral lake]

Definitely what I'd do

[opal hamlet]

never used it lol, i love to ...

tomorrow me issue

[lofty parcel]

Its not that hard to use it tbh

Its just ```py
from discord.ext import pages

embeds = [discord.Embed(...), ...]
paginator = pages.Paginator(embeds, ... other kwargs)
await paginator.respond(ctx.interaction)```

[fringe cape]

i added a timeout function for my view but even if you press a button it still executes the timeout. is there stop the function from running

I just want the timeout function to not execute if the callback has gone off

is there a good way to do this or would i just declare a "timout" variable on init and use that to not run the ontimout function?

[shell radish]

self.stop() or view.stop() depending on the scope

[fringe cape]

oooh danke

[devout mirage]

not sure if i should open a thread for this, but what is this refering to as too long (its 3 am cut me some slack)```py
discord.errors.ApplicationCommandInvokeError: Application Command raised an exception: HTTPException: 400 Bad Request (error code: 50035): Invalid Form Body
In components.1.components.0.options: Must be between 1 and 25 in length.

[shell radish]

row 1, first component's options are too long/short

[devout mirage]

i have a select menu on row index 1, ill check it

[pure carbon]

Bit of a stupid question: the docs suggest using a few flavors of database, but it doesn't explicitly recommend any particular driver. Am I right to assume async versions are preferred E.g. sqlalchemy[asyncio]
with asyncpg?
If you know of any "well built" open source bot I could use as reference of best practices feel free to send them my way. Thank you

[lapis dock]

Yes, you will need to use an async driver.
Red-DiscordBot Is a big one but it is discord.py
Toolkit is this servers management bot. Those are the 2 main ones. Just remember that lost of the code in Red bot cannot be copy pasted to pycord, use it only for reference.

[pure carbon]

Tyvm!

[grizzled imp]

@errant trout my bots are crashing since ##1947

here is some traceback if you want to take a look

[rugged lodge]

https://github.com/Pycord-Development/pycord/pull/1947

[errant trout]

Oh no

...I'll fix at home

[lofty parcel]

If you switch to py-cord-dev you can get it working

Master is broken lolz

[grizzled imp]

yeah i did

[lofty hedge]

i got a question when youre individually chunking a singel guild

and more stuff is processing after that, such as a print("guild is chunked") on a task, would that ever get triggered immediately or wait until the guils is chunked

@tasks.loop(seconds=60)
async def checkroles():
    await CLIENT.wait_until_ready()
    print("inside checkroles")
    try:
        main_server = await CLIENT.fetch_guild(938836203275452436)

        await main_server.chunk(cache=True)

        print(f"main server: {main_server}")
        print(main_server.self_role)
        if main_server.chunked:
            print("main server is chunked")
        else:
            print("main server is not chunked")
        beta_server = await CLIENT.fetch_guild(975586060308480070)
        await beta_server.chunk(cache=True)

        print(f"beta server: {beta_server}")
        print(beta_server.members)
        if beta_server.chunked:
            print("beta server is chunked")
        else:
            print("beta server is not chunked")
        print("got servers")
        trial_mod_main = main_server.get_role(992610751724400692)
        mod_main = main_server.get_role(967559301742886955)
        admin_main = main_server.get_role(1005985486705270976)
        print(f"trial mod role: {trial_mod_main}")
        for trial_mod in trial_mod_main.members:
            print(f"trial mod: {trial_mod}")
        
    except Exception as e:
        print(e)

checkroles.start()``` like ie keeps triggering the else

the whole issue is im trying to get all members that has a role in a server, and it keeps returning empty. I've used the members property on the bot object and printed that out and it's just an empty list and doesnt actually return anything.

It's printing out inside checkroles
main server: 24/7 Casino
24/7 Utilities
main server is not chunked
beta server: 24/7 casino beta bot
[]
beta server is not chunked
got servers
trial mod role: Trial Moderator
24/7 Utilities#8842 -> ONLINE | 29ms

intents = discord.Intents.default()

# intents.members = True
intents.members = True
intents.message_content = True
# intents.members = True

CLIENT = discord.Bot(intents=intents, chunk_guilds_at_startup=True)``` this is how im defining the bot / intents. and members is enabled on the discord developer portal

[little cobalt]

?tag get_x

[limber wagon]

Any function that starts with get_ in Py-cord is retrieving the related object from your bots cache. If the object is not in the bots cache the get_ method will return None. Because of this behavior you should check if the get_x method is None and if it is use the fetch_x method.

Why Is Using fetch_ Without Using get_ First Bad?
The fetch_ method makes a call to the discord API. This API call is unneeded if you already have the information. It will also make your command take longer because it will have to send and than wait for a response from the discord API. It will also contribute to the discord APIs global rate limit of 50 requests per second.

What Is Cache?
The cache is a temporary storage inside your bot. It holds many objects from members to messages. When you restart your bot the cache will be empty. When the cache is full it will delete older objects to make space for the new objects.

[lofty hedge]

i get that, but if im doing get_role and if that role wasnt in the bot cache, it wouldnt print out nothing right? but it does print out the role name

[little cobalt]

It returns None

[lofty hedge]

trial mod role: Trial Moderator well here it's printing out the role name

[molten ocean]

How do I get a user's badges

[red mist]

https://docs.pycord.dev/en/stable/api/models.html#discord.User.public_flags

I didnt know it was called either, but that should allow you to get them

user.public_flags should usually just do it

[opal hamlet]

how can i add a delete_after to a paginator.respond msg?

[lofty parcel]

If the keywordarg doesn't exist in the method, you'd have to do it yourself

[opal hamlet]

i found that paginator.send has delete_after, but when supplying it with the standard slash_command ctx(after await ctx.defer()) it just errors: TypeError: expected Context not <class 'discord.commands.context.ApplicationContext'>

maybe i just gotta write a delete after func?

[lofty parcel]

Cause it expects a commands.Context

[lofty parcel]

You just asyncio.sleep and then delete the response...

It's like 2 lines

[opal hamlet]

that's fair...

but anyways, how'd i supply it with commands.Context? do i like, have to specify ctx:discord.commands.Context as a arg?

[little cobalt]

ctx: discord.ApplicationContext

[opal hamlet]

nah doesnt work

had that before

[little cobalt]

(self, ctx: discord.ApplicationContext):
...

await paginator.send(ctx.interaction, delete_after=10)

what is with something like that?

[opal hamlet]

nope

TypeError: expected Context not <class 'discord.interactions.Interaction'>

[little cobalt]

mhm

its at the example like that

[little cobalt]

oh, you use paginator.send

change the send to respond

[opal hamlet]

then delete_after doesnt work as keyword

it works via respond yes, but i am just curious if there isnt a way to do delete_after

[deft kestrel]

How can I make the bot turn off its microphone in the voice channel?

[deft kestrel]

I think its something like

await ctx.guild.change_voice_state(channel=channel, self_mute=True)

[deft kestrel]

Thx

[junior ember]

Is there anyway to make my bot commands not available in dms

[deft kestrel]

You can use the decorator @commands.guild_only()

[junior ember]

Ah

Do i put it in the command

Wait no

Do i put it above bot.slash_command

[echo wraith]

Below

But above async def

[molten ocean]

@commands.command()
  async def memberinfo(self, ctx, user: discord.User):
      embed = discord.Embed(title=f"{user.display_name}",color=discord.Color.yellow())
      embed.set_thumbnail(url=user.display_avatar)
      embed.add_field(name="Account Creation Date", value=user.created_at.strftime("%b %d %Y"))
      embed.add_field(name="Joined at", value=discord.Member.joined_at)
      await ctx.send(embed=embed)

it shows "<member 'joined_at' of 'Member' objects>" in the embed. any idea?

[heavy sky]

You are just getting the joined_at property of discord.Member...
Replace it with user.joined_at

and make user discord.Member instead of discord.User

[lofty parcel]

This is why you need to know how to read your own code

[opal hamlet]

also comment/document

totally not me that scrapped an 500 line Cog cuz i couldnt figure out what the fuck i wanted to achieve with half the code

[molten ocean]

Sorry 😅

[wintry pawn]

for some reason my IDE doesn't see pycord as discord library. After installing pycord, it still makes me install discord package

[little cobalt]

Can you show the list?

PyCharm is using a env

[wintry pawn]

You mean?...

[little cobalt]

The list of the packages

[wintry pawn]

Oh, k

[shell radish]

?tag notpycord

[limber wagon]

The official name of the library is py-cord. When installing the library use py-cord, pycord (without the hyphen) is a completely different package.

[wintry pawn]

damn

now it works, thanks!

[little cobalt]

did you install py-cord or py-cord-dev?

[wintry pawn]

i've installed pycord. It is py-cord now

[little cobalt]

you should uninstall py-cord and install py-cord-dev instead

py-cord-dev got a lot of bug fixes

[wintry pawn]

okay

btw, how fast can I edit messages and not get ratelimited?

[little cobalt]

uh, 1 sec.

[wintry pawn]

edit every one second, or should I wait one second now? https://cdn.discordapp.com/emojis/740871197838802985.webp?size=48&name=Lox&quality=lossless

I just want to make a bot that acts like a currency graph, and though it will be edited every hour, I don't want to wait so long to test things

[lofty parcel]

Then edit every 5 or 10 seconds

[wintry pawn]

alright, thanks

[plush marten]

Hello.

Is it possible to, disable a specified button with name: 'view_votes' when a different button get's clicked?

I am currently using self.disable_all_items() but it does not seem to work.

[lofty parcel]

view.children returns a list of all your items in the view

[plush marten]

But how to like, disable the button then?

[lofty parcel]

You index the children and change the disabled attribute

[tiny fractal]

is there a rate limit to rebooting the bot? mine stopped registering all commands all together

[little cobalt]

slash commands?

[tiny fractal]

yes

[little cobalt]

how many commands and how many times did you reboot the bot?

[tiny fractal]

i haven't counted how many i have, but they were all working fine until i rebooted the bot a couple of time while making changes one command... then suddenly, it stopped registering all commands. i can no longer use any command.

and probably rebooted like 10 times

[little cobalt]

F

and how many commands do you have? x3

the problem is that you can only do 100 commands every day and after that you can kinda shutdown the bot because you got the ratelimit from discord

[tiny fractal]

22

how is that not in an error response?

[little cobalt]

But I also wonder how you load the cogs ;3

[tiny fractal]

for cog in cogs_list:
    bot.load_extension(f"cogs.{cog}")

[little cobalt]

do you do it at the on_ready event?

[tiny fractal]

negative

[little cobalt]

good

[tiny fractal]

every other aspect of the bot works, i can change bot.activity, all embeds from events from each cog works

[little cobalt]

oh, they changed it a bit?

[deft kestrel]

i need help with else statements lol

[tiny fractal]

so by creates per day. does rebooting the server equal a create per command

each reboot

oh it is... oh man that is really stupid

[tiny fractal]

if bot.is_ws_ratelimited():
        print("WebSocket is currently rate limited")
    else:
        print("WebSocket is not rate limited")

just ran this. and it says WebSocket is not rate limited...

[lapis dock]

Make sure you are on the latest pycord version
2.4.x or py-cord-dev 2.5.x. Newer versions will try not to re-register commands with no changes.

[tiny fractal]

on 2.4.1

[lapis dock]

👍

.tag slashnoshow

[sly karma]

Application Commands Not Showing Up?

• Uninstall libraries that conflict with the discord namespace (e.g. discord.py).
• Invite your bot with the application.commands scope.
• Load cogs before bot.run() (e.g. not in on_ready).
• Do not override on_connect.
• Update to the newest version of py-cord (see ?tag install).
• Turn off User Settings > Accessibility > Chat Input > Use legacy chat input.
• Share your code and errors.

[lapis dock]

Just make sure all of this is still true ^

[tiny fractal]

yep all is true

[lapis dock]

Is it possible you have multiple instances of your bot running?

[tiny fractal]

at the time, there was. i forgot to shutdown the bot on the prod server before i ran the one in vscode to test a new command

it was working for quite some time, until one restart. just stopped registering commands

[lapis dock]

If you have not yet also please restart your discord client. Sometimes it is just a visual or caching issue.

[tiny fractal]

one sec

thats not it either

noone else in the server can use em either

[lapis dock]

Can you restart you bot without loading any commands (IE comment out cog loading) then restart again with everything as normal (Load cogs)

[tiny fractal]

no dice

i've never seen this before lol

want to buy: percussive maintenance on discord

[lapis dock]

I dont think you are ratlimited as I believe discord would return an error if you were.

[tiny fractal]

thats what i though too

i did reboot the bot several times in rapid succession, because testing json data from an API

[little cobalt]

The server or the bot?

[tiny fractal]

the bot

[little cobalt]

(I saw the edit)

[lapis dock]

Im out of ideas 🫤 . You could try creating another bot and using its token just to ensure that it is not the code causing the issue.

[little cobalt]

I would just wait like 10-20 minutes and try it with a simple command again

If its not a ratelimit

[tiny fractal]

i'm going to accuse javascript of this. some how, some way, somewhere, javascript is always responsible

[tiny fractal]

discord.errors.Forbidden: 403 Forbidden (error code: 50001): Missing Access
got this on loading with a new bot from the dev portal. when it tries to do self.register_commands(

[lapis dock]

Did you add the applications.commands scope

[tiny fractal]

ope nope

though, i never once selected that scope originally for the first bot

selected the scope. same error

[lapis dock]

I guess it should be enabled by default when you enable bot

[tiny fractal]

yea, bot with administrator

ooh you know what

i accidentally had a debug_guilds id

ok so with the new bot from the portal it works now

also, i only added the debug_guilds id AFTER this issue started, for testing

[lapis dock]

I think it might just be best to wait for a while and hope that the issue is with discord. sorry :(

[tiny fractal]

all good. workin now. cheers

computers are hard

[heady zenith]

Is it possible to have a custom status for the bot?

[surreal birch]

How is it possible to have invite.inviter as null on invite create event?

[solid sapphire]

yes it is, https://docs.pycord.dev/en/stable/api/clients.html#discord.Bot.change_presence

Is it possible to create Button with callback function without using a @discord.ui.button decorator?

[surreal birch]

yes

just set the callback using button.callback = <func>

[solid sapphire]

I though callback there was a method, not a property

I'll try, thanks!

[surreal birch]

An example from my code:

class TicketCloseSelectView(discord.ui.View):
    def __init__(self, client, user, channel: discord.TextChannel):
        super().__init__(timeout=None)
        self.client = client

        staff_select = discord.ui.Select(discord.ComponentType.string_select)
        for member in channel.members:
            if member.bot or member.id == user.id: continue
            staff_select.add_option(label=member.display_name, value=member.name)

        async def callback(interaction: discord.Interaction):
            nonlocal self, staff_select
            placeholders = {
                "bot": self.client,
                "server": interaction.guild,
                "user": interaction.user,
                "yetkili": staff_select.values[0]
            }

            content, embed = self.client.get_message_from_config("settings.ticket-system.messages.review-message", **placeholders)
            await interaction.response.edit_message(content=content, embeds=[e[0] for e in embed], files=[file for e in embed for file in e[1]], view=TicketCloseRateView(self.client, staff_select.values[0]))

        staff_select.callback = callback
        self.add_item(staff_select)

Pretty useful trick if you have to make dynamically set names. You can also extend button class and use it but i prefer this way as it is more simplistic

[solid sapphire]

yeah it works, thanks

but how can I pass there a button that is clicked?

[surreal birch]

You can't, you have to indivually save them somewhere and set callbacks indivually, thats the problem with this approach. You can also try the other one where you extend a class to make button.

[kind grove]

if a slash command option has required=False and no value is provided when running the command, what is the value set to? None?

[glad spoke]

Correct

[kind grove]

perfect, thank you

[tiny fractal]

self.bot.get_guild(GUILD_ID).voice_channels

why do i get "NoneType" Object has no attribute 'voice_channels' for this?

can't even use get_channel

[tiny fractal]

so apparently you cannot use those attributes and functions unless decorated as @commands.slash_command() and takes ctx as an argument, even though ctx never gets used..

[little cobalt]

?tag get_x

[limber wagon]

Any function that starts with get_ in Py-cord is retrieving the related object from your bots cache. If the object is not in the bots cache the get_ method will return None. Because of this behavior you should check if the get_x method is None and if it is use the fetch_x method.

Why Is Using fetch_ Without Using get_ First Bad?
The fetch_ method makes a call to the discord API. This API call is unneeded if you already have the information. It will also make your command take longer because it will have to send and than wait for a response from the discord API. It will also contribute to the discord APIs global rate limit of 50 requests per second.

What Is Cache?
The cache is a temporary storage inside your bot. It holds many objects from members to messages. When you restart your bot the cache will be empty. When the cache is full it will delete older objects to make space for the new objects.

[tiny fractal]

cheers, just stumbled across that.

Why is my slash_command errors Unknown Interaction?

[lofty parcel]

You're probably taking too long to respond.

[mint solar]

It says The Application Did Not Respond after I execute the command and then print the error Unknown interaction

Then you're taking too long to respond. You respond in less than 3 seconds or you must defer.

@lofty parcel Can I limit who sees the commands in context menu?

    @commands.guild_only() # Only Guild
    @commands.has_permissions(administrator=True, ban_members=True, kick_members=True, manage_messages=True) # Who can use it
    @discord.user_command(name="User")
    async def on_click_user(self, ctx, member: discord.Member):
        embed = await self.format_embed_user(ctx, member)
        await ctx.respond(embed=embed, ephemeral=True, delete_after=60)

[lofty parcel]

You can use @discord.defult_permissions

Or manually edit it through the integrations tab

[valid panther]

If I do it this way, when the user executes it, it will throw an error which I have to control, right? Is there no way they can't get out of it, or is that it?

I have done a test as such the user gets the command, but obviously it no longer lets you run

[lofty parcel]

I'd add Internal checks and the ones discord give

So both commands.has_permissions and discord.default_permissions

is there a way to get a jump url to a slash command response?
i'm using it as response = await context.respond(embed=embed) in a slash command, but response has message as None, and no jump_url

i only found the original_response coro, but it performs a request to api under the hood?

[lofty parcel]

You'll indeed have to use that.

[brave arch]

nah it's much easier, since interaction ID is the message ID, you can just construct url yourself as f"https://discord.com/channels/{result.guild_id}/{result.channel_id}/{result.id}"

[lofty parcel]

Whatever you wanna use is OK

[brave arch]

result is an interaction returned by respond etc.

[plush marten]

Hiya.

Is @discord.default_permissions(manage_channels=True) also possible with a role?

That the command is only visible to those who have role xx?

[lapis dock]

Yes, in a way. You can not do this in the code. You would need to instruct your users to go to
Server Settings -> Intagrations -> Your Bot -> Your Command -> Add role -> Enable/Disable

[lapis dock]

IF you need it in the code you can use
@discord.ext.commands.has_role(role_id) but this will not hide the command and is not the recommended
way.

[woeful oak]

Would there be any problems if I use the same custom_ID for multipe persistent views?

I am currently doing for 2 and they seem completely fine

[little cobalt]

do you have many class with the same ID or only one?

[woeful oak]

Only 1. The class is used in multiple messages views

(The class only contains 1 button)

[little cobalt]

1 ID would be fine than

[woeful oak]

Thank you

[woeful oak]

What would be the problem if more than 2 classes used it?

[little cobalt]

you would get a error for using the same id

[languid hazel]

Um I have a question : for the decorator @discord.default_permissions(), when I pass discord.Permissions.all() in the decorator, I get a TypeError : default_permissions() takes 0 positionnal arguments but 1 were given. What's wrong with what I did ?

[little cobalt]

its like the commands.has_permissions() at the prefix commands

you have to add a permission to it

[languid hazel]

Wdym

discord.Permissions.all() is basically all the permissions enabled, isn't it ?

That's what I did, in clear :

@discord.default_permissions(discord.Permissions.all())

[little cobalt]

why do you not just add administrator=True?

[languid hazel]

If it was as simple as that, why the class all() exists 😂

It's confusing

[little cobalt]

I just dont know if it works for the slash command permission

[languid hazel]

Okay

I'll do with admin perms, thank you ¯⁠\\⁠_⁠(⁠ツ⁠)⁠_⁠/⁠¯

[little cobalt]

It might work has_permissions but with default_permissions the permissions can be changed

at the server

[languid hazel]

Uh ?

How it's possible?

[little cobalt]

has_permissions is like "hard coded" while default_permissions is it not

[languid hazel]

...

X)

I don't understand

How can an admin of a server modify the perms for using a command ?

[little cobalt]

they can change the command permission if they want to

Hello,
is it somehow possible to dynamically add another option to select another channel?
That I can first select a channel and then maybe another channel and if I have selected this one then maybe another one and so on?

@bot.slash_command(name="channel")
@option(
    "channel",
    Union[discord.TextChannel, discord.VoiceChannel],
    # You can specify allowed channel types by passing a union of them like this.
    description="Select a channel",
)
async def select_channel(
    ctx: discord.ApplicationContext,
    channel: Union[discord.TextChannel, discord.VoiceChannel],
):
    await ctx.respond(f"Hi! You selected {channel.mention} channel.")

[languid hazel]

I think you have to edit the message and changing the view of it

[little cobalt]

you have to create a channel menu or add a second option OR use autocomplete

[hazy turret]

But with Autocomplete I don't dynamically get more fields in my slash command

[hazy turret]

Then I would have to create e.g. 10 options from the beginning and then I would always have to check in the autocomplete whether the field has a value before if yes I can select something again and if no I get no choices or?
Because I can't create the options dynamically so that I always get another one as soon as the previous option has a value, can I?

[hazy turret]

Is it possible to always start the task on a certain day of the week at a certain time?

@tasks.loop(time=time(23, 0))```

[real raft]

does it still make sense to make commands with a prefix or should you make all commands with a slash

it is your bot and you could do both in one command if you want to

Im sure this is not the best approach, but you could use some var on true/false and then skip the loop if the variable is true

Because buttons have a default timeout of 3 minutes.

If you need it to last longer change the timeout or look into persistent views

[lofty parcel]

All of them? Or just specific ones?

[tiny fractal]

[little cobalt]

other question

how do you load the cogs

[tiny fractal]

for cog in cogs_list:
    bot.load_extension(f"cogs.{cog}")

and yea the cogs on_ready fires

[little cobalt]

so you load them at the on_ready event?

[tiny fractal]

no

[little cobalt]

ok

[tiny fractal]

i had something similar happen the other day with normal slashcommands, and i had to delete the bot from the developer portal and create a new one to get it working again

[little cobalt]

do you spam the API a lot?

[tiny fractal]

i mean, i reboot the bot in testing, but i have

if bot.is_ws_ratelimited():
        print("WebSocket is currently rate limited")
    else:
        print("WebSocket is not rate limited")

and i've never been rate limited

plus i'd imagine i'd get some sort of error if i was ratelimited, but no errors appear

[lofty parcel]

How many commands do you have

[tiny fractal]

about 30

[lofty parcel]

Have you tried setting guild_ids to the commands

And see if they register

[tiny fractal]

all slashcommand have that, then i started expirementing with slashcommandgroups. i have one cog with 3 slashcommandgroup commands, that register instantly without the guild_ids

the second commandgroup cog, no luck.

i tried
term = SlashCommandGroup(name="term", description="Terminology commands", guild_ids=[GUILD_ID])

but it did nothing

does each @term.command() also need the guild_ids too?

OMG

im such an IDIOT

i accidentally nested all of the commands inside the cogs on_ready

feel free to pin that im an idiot lol

When making a slash command, should i use ctx: discord.Interaction or discord.ApplicationContext? Im not really sure what the difference is, and when I should use which. From the docs it looks like they mostly do the same thing. And my code still works when I switch between them

ApplicationContext

discord.Interaction is when you receive interaction in views

And typehinting doesn't affect your code, just what your IDE autocompletes for you

[sage tendon]

no way 💀

[echo wraith]

?client

[little cobalt]

wrong channel for that

[echo wraith]

wich channel then?

[glad garnet]

Status does not exist at the moment, I'll be adding it later once I'm done with some stuff I have to do

[shell radish]

Project K has been in development since forever

[sage tendon]

why the fuck did I send that here

[shell radish]

it’s not the first time you did that

[deft bronze]

any way to use something like "ephemeral" but with bridgecommand?

[shell radish]

only responses to interations can be ephemeral, so text-based commands simply cannot be ephemeral

[red mist]

As long as you still remember how you get home every night, there's nothing to question :P

[young cove]

Are there ways to accept an image upload (not a url) from a user other than by reading their message or through a slash command? Like from a modal or a prompt after pressing a button?

[sage tendon]

what other ways would there be lol

either you read the message attachment or make a slash command with an option
theres no other option to get a picture from a user

[young cove]

That's what I thought thanks

Hey so I want to get the ids of a member by using member.roles however when I try to index the list it returns it retursn a string when I want to return an id how do I do this thanks in advance.

[valid panther]

How can I dynamically load commands into an embed without making a name:id ?

the ids change every time I update something and it's a bit cumbersome

[subtle moth]

iirc the id only changes when you delete the command and remake it

I use this code to kick bots, which always select one of two sets of roles. For some reason, a lot of the time, it won't actually kick them until I manually update them long after they already picked their roles
And code further down from the screenshot also does not execute after members selected their onboarding roles
I tried everything and it just seems like an issue with member updates not working correctly rather than my code, so, what do

[sage tendon]

since sometimes it does work without a forced user update

[echo wraith]

How do I set a default permission to a group?

    mod_group = SlashCommandGroup(name="mode", description="Moderation commands")
    mod_group.default_member_permissions = discord.Permissions(administrator=True)
    mod_group.guild_only = True

does not work

[autumn gust]

why doesn't this work

    channel = bot.get_channel(1121763166976749630)
    for i in range(10):
        await channel.send(f"test {i}")

it has a NoneType issue

is there a typo somewhere that I made or?

[echo wraith]

use await bot.fetch_channel instead

[autumn gust]

ah

[autumn gust]

like await channel = bot.fetch_channel(id)?

or

nvm

but how do I call into that channel then?

[echo wraith]

wdym? Sending a message in there?

[autumn gust]

ye

[lofty parcel]

use ctx.guild.get_channel. you save an api call

[echo wraith]

do it in 2 lines
channel = await bot.fetch_channel
await channel.send

[autumn gust]

ah

[autumn gust]

alright might need some help again, how do I make something like, I type in a seperate terminal (on my machine), which feeds the message (string) over to the bot (another file) which then sends the message to a channel (channel.send(variable))

roughly like this

[shell radish]

you can definitely do this with websockets

[autumn gust]

so... what do I do?

[shell radish]

by creating a separate program that can relay the information to the bot through a websocket. The bot can receive the information and execute on it

[autumn gust]

uhhhh

so like, how do I create a websocket

?

[shell radish]

there are many ways to create one

[autumn gust]

nvm I think I found it

[shell radish]

I do not know how your bot is structured or how your bot works or what type of information you are relaying. I recommend researching yourself.

[autumn gust]

aaah that seems so complicated

I'm just relaying a string

which changes

ie I read input from a user in a terminal, which gets sent over to the bot

How to put a custom presence without "playing" or "watching"?

[lofty parcel]

Pass a discord.CustomActivity

[deft kestrel]

Does anyone know how to enable/disable the mention raid detection? If its already enabled, it just gives a 404 not found error when trying to edit the rule.

[young skiff]

I tried with CustomActivity

await bot.change_presence(activity=discord.CustomActivity(name='Custom status'))```
but it doesn't work, nor does any error appear

[deft kestrel]

Try set the status with it

Online, dnd etc

[tiny fractal]

pagination_view = PaginationView()
pagination_view.data = list_of_items
await pagination_view.send(ctx)

I have a slash command executing the code above. While it does respond with the correct data requested, it also throws "The application did not respond" before hand.
Does the slashcommand need to respond with something always? was hoping to avoid that as the response is in the pages

[young skiff]

like this?

await bot.change_presence(activity=discord.CustomActivity(name='Custom status', status=discord.Status.online))```
doesnt work

[placid shard]

maybe try pagination_view.respond

[loud kayak]

When subclassing commands.HelpCommand, how would I filter commands from ones a user can and cannot use based on command permission checks like the default one does?

For some reason, recently today, images in embeds are acting weird..

First image is me on my pc

on phone

And sometimes even on pc for a few seconds it'll be IN the embed then after a few seconds its OUT of the embed?? Like what's happening, I haven't changed any code, possibly smth to do with disc?

[little cobalt]

Can you show how you create the embed?

[chrome plover]

sure

            lb_embed.set_image(url=f"attachment://profile.png")
            dfile = discord.File(bytes,"profile.png")
            lb_embed.set_footer(text = f'Page {self.current_page}/{math.ceil(len(self.data) / self.sep)}')

Btw its happening for all my embeds

I haven't changed anything

[little cobalt]

and how do you send the message?

and what is your py-cord version?

[chrome plover]

I'm using py-cord-dev 2.5.0rc5

But I'm pretty sure its smth to do with discord, its behaving really abnormally, how its twitching in and out sometimes.. I just wanted to see if anyone else is facing this issue

[little cobalt]

that should work

[valid panther]

I'm trying the documentation you have passed me, but I don't understand why it comes out duplicated:I'm trying the documentation you have passed me, but I don't understand why it comes out duplicated:

        for command in self.bot.walk_application_commands():

            embed.add_field(name=f"{command.name}",
                            value= f"❯ </{command.qualified_name}:{command.id}> - {command.description}\n"

                            inline=False)

[lofty parcel]

It is paginator.respond and you pass ctx.interaction
