Basic Pycord Help

[cerulean lake]

How to get commands like these? Like is there a template somewhere?

[rugged lodge]

Here's the context menus example.

[loud kayak]

o you beat me to it

[cerulean lake]

Thx

[little cobalt]

xd

[young skiff]

Why does Pycord use 'discord' as the module name? It's annoying to confuse it with other modules like discord.py, it should be 'py-cord' instead of 'discord', right?

[steep cliff]

It’ll be pycord in v3 if it ever gets released

[little cobalt]

You could change it or do

import discord as pycord

[plucky moss]

Can I get an answer on why my slash commands aren't working?

[hallow copper]

skill issue?

[plucky moss]

kill yo-

[hallow copper]

meanie

[plucky moss]

Nah but fr why 😭

[hallow copper]

wut commands are the problem?

[plucky moss]

I did everything it said in the docs

[plucky moss]

The one in cogs

Regular ones are working fine

[hallow copper]

its kinda hard to tell you why when you share no details or code

[plucky moss]

Ill send them wait

I'm getting a call

import discord 
from discord.ext import commands

class Fun(commands.Cog):
  def __init__(self, client):
    self.client = client
  
  @commands.command()
  async def ping(self, ctx):
    await ctx.send(f"Pong! {round(self.client.latency * 1000)}ms")

  @commands.slash_command()
  async def ballbeater(self,ctx):
    await ctx.respond("ballbeater")

  @commands.user_command(name='Test2')
  async def test2(self, ctx, user: discord.Member):
    await ctx.respond(f'{user.mention} is cool')

  @commands.Cog.listener()
  async def on_ready(self):
    print('Fun cog is ready')

def setup(client):
  client.add_cog(Fun(client))
    

This is my cog code

The slash commands and context menus don't work

The cogs do get loaded

And prefix cmds work

[lapis pollen]

is there no way to dm all members in a server w my bot?

[atomic fern]

you can, just iterate over all guild member

why commands.has_role won't work with bridge commands? is it only supported
prefixed commands? and how do i make it work with bridge

[fleet cedar]

Yep. Or use @bot.event in the main file

[edgy glen]

Why are application commands not working?

[heavy sky]

.tag idw

[opal hamlet]

does discord IP Ban bots or smth? bots running fine on my Linux server suddenly all stopped working and all of them just log: discord.client INFO logging in using static token

the bots start without issues on my pc so they aren't banned or anything

[slender lantern]

Is pycord compatible with aiohttp >= 3.9?

[hollow plank]

Discord does not allow you to edit a channel several times in a short period of time. Is it possible to filter this out if Discord is currently blocking it?

[pseudo osprey]

Any help?

[shell radish]

Nope, it’s server-side

[hollow plank]

But public bots can do that?

[shell radish]

yes, they ban a certain IP

[shell radish]

No, they just do it slowly

[opal hamlet]

Well it worked again after a while, probably a temp ban cuz of some ratelimit issue

Happens when your code is shit IG

[hollow plank]

ah okay. Thank you

[shell radish]

probably

[loud kayak]

When a user selects an option in a select menu and the bot responds to the interaction, the option they selected is still on their view. How would I be able to have discord not show the option still selected and show no options selected?

[shell radish]

edit the message and put the view there again

[loud kayak]

thanks that works

[loud kayak]

How many select menus can be on a message?

Is it 5?

[little cobalt]

5 Menus

25 buttons

[loud kayak]

Ok

[crisp pollen]

is there a reason for my bot randomly restarting with no errors? the .py file is still running, on_ready is just being called again

i'm able to dm 2 users 1 file each and then it just restarts

cooldown of 7.5s between dms

[shell radish]

sessions restart

[crisp pollen]

its only happening when i'm running my task

every single time it dms 2 people

[shell radish]

without timestamps that doesn’t say anything

[crisp pollen]

the task runs every 5 minutes

sometimes it completes ("done", in the ss), sometimes it fails

task begins with "new update"

[shell radish]

without providing the code for the task, it’s practically impossible to diagnose the issue

there could be other factors that cause a “restart” so to speak

[crisp pollen]

yeah hold on im uploading the code

https://pastebin.com/Qv5Wrg2N

[rugged lodge]

https://pastebin.com/raw/Qv5Wrg2N

[crisp pollen]

figured out the cause

my giant for loop (going through a 100k+ length list of dictionaries) was timing out the bot as it was blocking for some reason

is there a reason async code run inside of a task would be blocking and cause the entire bot to freeze

im playing the game of "how many times can I fk around with my code and have it still not work" 😭

[crisp pollen]

solved my problem, just reduced the amount of data i was iterating through

[grave scaffold]

hello, on my journey of understanding pycord.
i was following the example:

channel = await guild.create_forum_channel('cool-channel')

but since guild.create_forum_channel() does not exist i tried using

@bot.slash_command(name="create_channel", description="")
async def create_channel(createchannelfunc):
    await guild.Guild.create_category(guild,'test')

but this does not work erroring with

AttributeError: module 'discord.guild' has no attribute '_create_channel'

could a poor soul be helped out to be shown the answer?

[grave scaffold]

i have looked and looked and have found no answer -_-

i even tried:

await bot.get_guild(guild.Guild.id).create_text_channel('test')

and i get this error instead:

AttributeError: module 'discord.guild' has no attribute 'create_text_channel'

[obsidian blaze]

What is createchannelfunc?

What are you trying to do? Create a channel?

It would be await ctx.guild.create_text_channel("cool-channel")

[grave scaffold]

oh so referance the slash command 🤦‍♂️

[obsidian blaze]

right

[grave scaffold]

sorry im stupid sometimes. its dumb bc pycharm doesnt auto fill any of that

[little cobalt]

at the slash commands its still ctx

;3

[obsidian blaze]

Github Copilot

[grave scaffold]

i use that and it acts dumb sometimes.

doing autofills that make no sense and dont work at all in c++ so i hardly use it there

[little cobalt]

you can create live templates with pycharm

[grave scaffold]

oh really ill check that out!

[grave scaffold]

interesting

[obsidian blaze]

Need some suggestions

Needing to send a message from an interaction to say how many votes are remaining, but then that same interaction also needs to be able to edit the message for a new image. These are done at two seperate times and I am aware you can't edit the same interaction twice

[lofty parcel]

You can edit the same interaction twice

Just use interaction.edit_original_response

[obsidian blaze]

Oh, interesting. I was using interaction.response.edit_message so I guess that’s why. Thanks

[lofty parcel]

You use that if you're responding

If you need a second edit/response, you use what I said

[plucky moss]

Can someone show me an example on how to make a slash command in a cog, because I followed the docs and the GitHub guide and neither work?

[shell radish]

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.

[sinful juniper]

why does it tell me that i have to enter a valid number? i have int inside?

• https://max1385.no-friends.xyz/G1Z2bIga.png
• https://max1385.no-friends.xyz/HyCxiUqJ.png

[heavy sky]

You'll have to use a string instead and then convert to an int. Discord doesn't support long ints

[sinful juniper]

Thank you

[autumn gust]

semi-related to PyCord, but

what would be the most optimal way to like, export a list of User IDs into a list which my bot can sample and add to at any time

and won't lose it when it reboots

SQLite?

I want to make(upgrade lmao) a whitelist system, where I get a prompt whether to allow somebody in or deny them

and if I allow them, add their user ID to the whitelist

[shell radish]

all databases can do the job. Just use which one you are most familiar with

[autumn gust]

and if I'm not familar with any?

what would you recommend?

SQLite seems... vaguely nice? but I've never really done anything with db

my dbs were always just plain txt files lmao

[hazy turret]

Does anyone know how I can send the whole thing if I use interaction.defer() beforehand?

await paginator.respond(interaction, ephemeral=True)```

[shell radish]

you can't

[hazy turret]

But you can simply:

await interaction.response.defer(ephemeral=True)

And then:

await paginator.respond(interaction, ephemeral=True)

Use without problems 🙂
Just tested it 🙂

The docs also state the following:

Paginator.respond() is used to send an interaction response (or followup) message with the paginator.```

[shell radish]

I misread the question 💀

[pliant tusk]

why is await reaction.users() so slow

i only want a list of user ids who reacted a certain reaction on a message

[shell radish]

ask discord lol

[coral lake]

SQLite is perfect for beginners

---

Is there any way to access response headers with Pycord? I need to better understand individual rate limits.

If not, is there some other way to understand specific rate limits such as ephemeral interaction responses?

[summer knot]

can some help me with this error

bot.add_application_command(group)

[little cobalt]

Why do you create the Applikation command group like that?

[summer knot]

because it used bridge commands and that came up searching on the internet

[little cobalt]

At the py-cord docs?

[summer knot]

nope

from here:

https://guide.pycord.dev/extensions/bridge

https://stackoverflow.com/questions/74790979/pycord-how-to-make-subcommands-or-slashcommands-groups

https://guide.pycord.dev/extensions/commands/groups

[summer knot]

Let me see if I guess, should I look for it?

[little cobalt]

If you want to use a bridge group yea

https://docs.pycord.dev/en/stable/ext/bridge/api.html#discord.ext.bridge.Bot.bridge_command

[summer knot]

A question, if I want to make a command appear in the !help command in a category that is not in a category, how can I do it?

[little cobalt]

You mean with the build in help one?

[summer knot]

if you look here:

Use `@ElBotDelYonny help [command]` for more info on a command.
You can also use `@ElBotDelYonny help [category]` for more info on a category.

__**Excepsiones**__
modo_molestar
__**​No Category**__

Here it shows the !help command of my bot but it only shows the cog commands in one category
What I want to know is how to put the commands that are in the category called: No Category in a category, which says that it is not in a category, this is because the commands are integrated into the main.py file

not in a cog file

[little cobalt]

yea, that is the build in help command for prefix commands and I dont know how to use it x3

[summer knot]

At least do you know where or what part of the pycord docs it is to try to see how it is used?

[little cobalt]

I usually create a full custome one at my bots

[little cobalt]

lemme see if I can find it

discord.ext.commands.errors.CommandInvokeError: Command raised an exception: AttributeError: 'BridgeCommand' object has no attribute 'hidden'

I tried to investigate a solution but it seems that it is a problem in the library

this is what i found

This error is occurring because the filter_commands method in your send_bot_help function is trying to access the hidden attribute of a command object, but it appears that the ‘BridgeCommand’ object does not have this attribute.

The best part is that I used the example that the website you gave me gave me.

[stray pasture]

is it me or the search is not working anymore in doc ?

[shell radish]

i mean stable literally doesn't have that so ig it's working

you probably want master instead of stable

also bookmark bar (if you care)

[stray pasture]

oooh I see thank you !

[summer knot]

           filtered = await self.filter_commands(commands, sort=True)

I am having problems with this simple line that always returns the same error

[shell radish]

yes, because the example is for text-based commands only and not bridge commands

[summer knot]

So how do I do it for bridge commands?

[shell radish]

you can probably override the filter_commands method with one that would work for bridge commands

[summer knot]

it didn't work for me

           class MyNewHelp(commands.MinimalHelpCommand):

        # Verifica si el comando es una instancia de 'BridgeCommand' y si tiene el atributo 'name'

I think I'm going to have to give up since I've been trying for a while to do something that was so easy to return to cog command but as a consequence I would have to write the code again in cog command

MailTM - Tempmail API not working

My code: https://pastebin.eldshort.de/AZYqYqxZBLWHaReIYXEec
MailTM: https://pypi.org/project/MailTm/

[lofty parcel]

Why would this be a pycord issue when the issue is from another library

[deft kestrel]

I'm using pycord in this code

[lofty parcel]

But the issue isn't pycord

And the error is kinda self explanatory

[deft kestrel]

[atomic fern]

why commands.has_role won't work with bridge commands? and how do i make it work with bridge

[deft kestrel]

#international-chat

[atomic fern]

[lofty parcel]

How it doesnt?

[deft kestrel]

I thought I was on a German server sry xd

[little cobalt]

lol

[atomic fern]

idk, i tried it, the command can be used without the role, when i changed it to prefixed command, the role is required

[lofty parcel]

Then you could just implement the check manually

[atomic fern]

too much work xd

just only to check if user has a role

[lofty parcel]

It's literally two lines of code?

[topaz basin]

Hi, does anyone know how to exclude users from a cooldown?
My cooldown looks like this

@commands.cooldown(1, 30, commands.BucketType.user)

[lofty parcel]

You will need to create a custom cooldown

[topaz basin]

How can I do that?

try seeing if this sae behavior happens on master. If so, please file a bug report on github

[stray pasture]

I see will try that !

yeah it still does it

so many bugs with audit logs !

[stray pasture]

In the mean time I just did:

entries = await guild.audit_logs(limit=None, after=object_id,
                                    oldest_first=True, action=discord.AuditLogAction.member_role_update).flatten()
entries.sort(key=lambda val: val.created_at)

[shell radish]

add this comment to the issue so others can also find it easily

[stray pasture]

yeah but it is not a real fix, more a work around

[hexed herald]

hey, is there a given way through pycord to access the /gateway/bot endpoint?

[shell radish]

not publically documented, so you can make your own requests

[hexed herald]

okay, just using the token and aiohttp?

[lofty parcel]

Yes

[hexed herald]

okay, thx

[atomic fern]

is it should be placed in on_ready?

[little cobalt]

yea

[fresh totem]

How can I get a slash command user's profile pciture URL

ctx.author's pfp

I tried avatar_url, doesn't work

[little cobalt]

^ got answerd here #1190258685532966983

[atomic fern]

does persistent view uses api request to discord? if want to make selfrole system is it necessary to keep that message only in one channel? so if i want to change the selfrole location i need to delete the old message

just to prevent rate limiting

[sage tendon]

I highly recommend using onboarding over any custom solution unless onboarding doesnt meet your needs at all

[young cove]

Any thoughts why an interaction_check isn't working on a modal?

class bioModal(discord.ui.Modal):
    def __init__(self, buttonInteraction, *args, **kwargs, ) -> None:
        super().__init__(*args, **kwargs)
        self.buttonInteraction = buttonInteraction
  
    async def interaction_check(self, interaction: discord.Interaction):
        print(interaction.user.id)
        print(self.buttonInteraction.user.id)
        if interaction.user.id == self.buttonInteraction.user.id:
            return True
        else:
            return False

    async def callback(self, interaction: discord.Interaction):
     await interaction.response.send_message(
            "view", view=MyView(),
            ephemeral=True)```

The print statements aren't running so I think it's being skipped over for some reason

[atomic fern]

onboarding? what is that?

[lofty parcel]

Modals don't have interaction checks

Don't know why you'd need one? Modals just show to the user that receives it

[young cove]

Trying to work through the suggestion here: #1187068274102509632 message

[lofty parcel]

Well, modals don't have interaction checks

[sage tendon]

discord community server feature

which de facto replaced self roles in every bot

[atomic fern]

hmm, i use bots because I'm creating complex selfroles

[sage tendon]

like what

[hybrid fossil]

Hi there!
Since I've added a verification system to an API I've been getting this error, any ideas?

[scarlet knot]

How can I check if my bot is already connected to a vc or not
is there any way?

[lofty parcel]

Probably sometimes your request takes longer to process and you are responding after the 3 seconds.

[scarlet knot]

Hello I'm Getting an issue.. ctx.content always returning an empty string

[little cobalt]

What is ctx.content?

[fresh totem]

Documentation page for adding dropdown list to embed

[sage tendon]

what

[lofty parcel]

That attribute doesn't exist

[shell radish]

bro thinks this is chatgpt

[lofty parcel]

LMAO

YOU STOLE MY WORDS

[sage tendon]

fr

[fresh totem]

Thank you, yall are so helpful

[sage tendon]

use google?

We aren't living link dispensers dude

[rugged lodge]

Here's the dropdown example.

[sage tendon]

truly an impossible feat

[shell radish]

that's enough

[edgy nest]

why the fucj

are you using bing

[sage tendon]

bing chat, thats why

[fresh totem]

imagine getting trolled for asking help in the one and only support server

[sage tendon]

Man, use google

Support is for actual issues not for "pls give me this publicly accessible website link"

[sage tendon]

jokes on you, i am not in the US

[shell radish]

There's nothing wrong with not knowing where to find examples, but ok

[edgy nest]

womp womp

[sage tendon]

you know how hardcore google regionlocks stuff
even their new gemini model for bard is region locked

[sage tendon]

I expect everyone seeking support to at least have done a google search with what they want, especially if all they need is a page in the docs

[shell radish]

@edgy nest @sage tendon #general

[plucky moss]

how to add description to parameters, like if I have a slash command:

#not an actual command just example
@client.slash_command()
async def test(ctx, answer: str):
       await ctx.respond(f'cool opinion about {answer}')

How can I add a description when we are inputting answer.

[lofty parcel]

You typehint discord.Option()

.rtfm discord.Option

[sly karma]

10 results

discord.Option
discord.Option.converter
discord.Option.to_dict
discord.OptionChoice
discord.OptionChoice.to_dict
discord.commands.option

discord.ext.pages.PaginatorMenu.options

[plucky moss]

Works thanks

[sinful juniper]

hey, what is the best way to make a handler that checks whether the user is on a mongodb blacklist or not every time a slash command is executed. if so, the bot should only send that it is on a blacklist.

i had just tried this with the on_application_commmand, but i only get problems with my on_application_command_error event. what is the best way to do this?

[hazy turret]

Is it not possible to use Discord timestamps in an embed footer?

[hazy turret]

You can create a custom check:

def custom_check():
    async def predicate(ctx: Context):
      # Do something here
    return check(predicate)


@custom_check()
async def function()

And you can catch the error here and then output a message:

isinstance(error, discord.CheckFailure)```

[lapis dock]

You should set the timestamp of the embed with https://docs.pycord.dev/en/stable/api/data_classes.html#discord.Embed.timestamp. This will only display as a time (IE not relative) directly to the right of the footer.

[sinful juniper]

under the @slash_command
https://max1385.no-friends.xyz/oCDHZrHc.png

[lapis dock]

I dont think it matters but try it an see. Also if you do this you should make a cache so you are not constantly calling the DB if someone is "spamming" commands

[sinful juniper]

but wouldn't that just work with on_application_commmand?

[lapis dock]

Yeah, I guess you are right, there is not a huge difference. What are you trying to avoid?

Or what is the issue with on_application_command_error

[sinful juniper]

I have a MongoDB collection with bans in it, i.e. blacklisted users who are no longer allowed to use slash commands from the bot.
I had already tried this once, but then had problems with my normal error handler. Always had the error that the interaction had already been answered.

[lapis dock]

Do you still have this old handler avalible for me to help debug?

I will be back in ~20 to help you fix your error handling. As that is the best way other than just putting a function at that start of every command.

[short rivet]

to make commands work with prefix as well as when bot is mentioned we use the when_mentioned_or function when creating the bot object but if i just have to make some commands which have the mentioned at property what should i do according to the best practice

[sinful juniper]

Yes, I'm looking for in few min

[lapis dock]

I do not know of a way to set prefixes per command ( that is just not how the library is set up) However once the command is found you can check if the prefix is a mention and not run the command if it is with https://docs.pycord.dev/en/stable/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.Context.prefix You could even put this in a custom check if you want

[short rivet]

oh so i check the prefix of the command when its invoked and then if a want to make it a command in which mention should not be allowed i can just see if the prefix used for the commands was the mention of the bot or not .. i guess this will work and i suggest to add something to the library which makes it possible to set per command prefixes

unfortunately i didn't find the code from before, but i have now created a new one. the user id, with which i execute the command, is on the blacklist, but still no error or other grade appears, the blacklisted user can execute the command just like that.

[tepid coyote]

channel = self.bot.get_channel(result[3])
        if channel is None:
            channel = await self.bot.fetch_channel(result[3])

this returns a: NotFound: 404 Not Found (error code: 10003): Unknown Channel

i coppied the code into a notmal prefixed command and coppied the id from the db and it works fine

[lapis dock]

Returning True/False within a event does not effect the result of the command. Raising an error instead might. I am not 100% sure. But you can try it.
IE return False -> raise YourError and catch that in the on command error

[lapis dock]

But it does not work in a slash comand?

with what kind of option?

Make sure the value is an int and not a string

[tepid coyote]

wrapped hte result[3] with int() and still returns the same error

[sinful juniper]

but I don't have an error here that I can raise, do I? I mean, otherwise I would have to write error at the top as well

[tepid coyote]

    async def get_channel(self, channel_id: int):
        channel = self.bot.get_channel(channel_id)

        if channel is not None:
            print('get')
            print(channel)

coppied the channelID from the db and it returns get then the channel name
in the same cog file aswell
the perfixed command for testing btw

[lapis dock]

You would have to create your own error or just choose one that already exists. You would have to make another isinstace tho.

[lapis dock]

Can you show the slash command that it is not working for

Sorry I dont know why this is. The docs say that your error only occurs when the channel ID is not valid. Something must be going wrong with the results from your database.

what pacakge are you using to access the DB?

[tepid coyote]

aiosqlite

[sinful juniper]

@lapis dock Unfortunately, this does not work. The user is on the banlist, but he can execute any command just like that. And I don't get any other errors in my console.

[lapis dock]

try changing @commands.Cog.listener() to @bot.event()

[sinful juniper]

okay, I will do it later 😄

[tepid coyote]

i removed the status = 3 peramiter in the query and it worked, must have been accessing a different record

thanks for the help :)

[lapis dock]

I hope that works for you if not try to make custom check, simple example you can convert to app commands https://gist.github.com/Harukomaze/a81d60ba7f3c8dbf6bcbfe0df2decbfc

    else:

Now the prints are going through, but I still get this little error:

This is how it would work now.

[short rivet]

is there a way to add alises like this one ["np add"] ... basically which have a space between them

?

would i have to make a command group ?

[lapis dock]

you forgot the application it should be on_application_command_error

[sinful juniper]

I have that in my handler file. Can I delete it in the main file, right?

[lapis dock]

If i understand what you mean yes

[teal crag]

is there like a command mention

like example if they click on this <#command> it runs the command?

[shell radish]

.slashmention

Searched in pycord-master

discord.SlashCommand.mention

[teal crag]

thanks

[shell radish]

it doesn't run the command, but puts it in their chat

[short rivet]

....?

without making a group is it not possible to make a command like "np add"

without using the on message event ofcurse

[lapis dock]

If it does not work normally than no. There is not a special work around to make it work without changing the library internals. Are you trying to make np default to the add mode unless otherwise specified or something?

[tepid coyote]

is there an upper limit to guild.fetch_members?

[lapis dock]

There should not be.

[tepid coyote]

im adding members to a db. matches the display name to a regex and if theres a match it adds the member to the db but there are some members missing that should be added

[tepid coyote]

thats what i thought

but its still missing some

[lapis dock]

Are you sure it is not an issue with your regex?

Also make sure you are using the right name not that there is user name, display name, nickname, etc

[tepid coyote]

ironically some of the ones missing were tested with the regex

[tepid coyote]

defiantly the right one (display_name)

pattern = r"^([A-Z0-9]{2,4}) ([A-Z][a-z]+) ([A-Z]{1,2}-(?:[0-9]+|(?:\d-\d+\/\d+)))$"
        async for member in ctx.guild.fetch_members(limit=12000):
            print(counter, member.display_name)
            if re.match(pattern, member.display_name):
                name_info = member.display_name.split(" ")
                RANK = name_info[0]
                NAME = name_info[1]
                DESG = name_info[2]

[limber wagon]

SQL Injection is a technique used by attackers to interfere with and alter queries that an application makes to its database via input data. A vulnerability to this exploit can lead to attackers being able to read sensitive data, modify existing data (Insert/Update/Delete), perform administrative operations on your database and in some cases even issue commands directly to the operating system of the server.

More information on SQL Injection
w3schools, owasp.org

To avoid SQL Injection vulnerability, you should never directly merge or concatenate data into an SQL query through string operations (f-strings, + operator, string interpolation with %, etc.). Always use the parameterized queries included with the library you are using.

Examples of parameterized queries for popular libraries
psycopg2, asyncpg, sqlite3, mysql

[shell radish]

side-note

[sour flint]

is there a way to reload the code of the bot like push changes without restarting the bot/server, without using a cog or do i need to use cogs

[stray pasture]

what exactly this take in consideration and what it does not. For exemple I found that it take in considerations the admin roles

[plucky palm]

you can try putting bot.run() in a loop, then creating a task with tasks.loop() decorator that'll check if files are changed and running bot.close() if so

[short obsidian]

discord.ActivityType.custom isn't working? when i try like watching it works fine but custom just don't

[sour flint]

hmmm thx

[short rivet]

for the get_prefix function in which i get the prefix from a database made in aiosqlite should i just make a single conn and reuse it since it will be triggered on every message

or i should create conn easch time ?

[short rivet]

if i have seperate error handeler for a command using @commandname.error
the command gives the error to it but it also raises it on the on_command_error cant we prevent this since for some commands we need specific error handelers

would i have to specifically chekc on the on_command_error that if the command has its on_error already or not

[steep cliff]

which version of pycord do you use?

[autumn gust]

how do you get the amount of pins in a channel?

I essentially want a simple if statement

if pinamount == 50:
  print("can't pin")
else
  pin()

does this work?

pinlist = channel.pins()
pincount = pinlist.count()

[glad garnet]

# get the number of pins in a channel
pins = len(await channel.pins())

[autumn gust]

oh ty

oh, with justm messages, message author etc. can you get a channel?

[lost ocean]

alright, tysm!

[plucky palm]

np

[sinful juniper]

yeah, I have the same problem.

[reef spire]

How can i create/edit/delete channels using the bot?

[lapis dock]

Look at the methods of https://docs.pycord.dev/en/stable/api/models.html#discord.Guild for how you can create channels.

https://docs.pycord.dev/en/stable/api/abcs.html#discord.abc.GuildChannel.delete

and to edit you need to have a channel object and just run edit

[plucky palm]

try updating to new ver (uninstall pycord and install py-cord-dev; see #library-updates)

[plucky palm]

you too, if you have old ver

[sinful juniper]

what version do you have if it doesn't work for you either?

[plucky palm]

I don't even use it, I'm just telling you to update since that could fix the bug

[sinful juniper]

oh, sorry. I meant him

[lapis dock]

Due to some issue with uploading a new version to pypi we made a temporary version called py-cord-dev it is just as stable as 2.4. In the future we will switch back to using py-cord

[plucky palm]

^

though some bugs might've been fixed already

stable obv doesn't mean no bugs at all

[sinful juniper]

okay, then I'll try

[short obsidian]

nah i'm using the stable version

that must be a bug

[deft kestrel]

how i can get the ping down?

[sage tendon]

get better internet lol

[deft kestrel]

oh really

there is not other option?

[sage tendon]

well, where is your bot hosted

[deft kestrel]

wdym?

[shell radish]

I mean, the best way to get better ping is to move closer to the host

[sage tendon]

yea, i was gonna get to that lol

[shell radish]

getting better internet does help, but the difference generally isn't large

[sage tendon]

the physical location where your code for your bot runs

[deft kestrel]

thats a good question

[sage tendon]

lol

[deft kestrel]

i am using the free one of course

[sage tendon]

There are about 30 ways i could tell you that can host your bot for free

But how high is the bot's ping anyway

[shell radish]

like your mom's house?

[deft kestrel]

121.179 ms

[sage tendon]

thats not really much for a bot

[deft kestrel]

good

[shell radish]

anything below 300 is fine

[lapis dock]

@sinful juniper I think that bug was fixed in master

?Tag install

[limber wagon]

1. Uninstall discord.py or any other forks of discord.py you might have with the namespace discord.
python -m pip uninstall discord.py discord -y

2a. Install py-cord
python -m pip install py-cord

2b. Update py-cord
python pip install -U py-cord

Installing other builds:
Note: You need to have git installed. Use ?tag git to find out how to install git.

Updating the module to master branch (unstable):
pip install -U git+https://github.com/Pycord-Development/pycord

[sinful juniper]

I will try it soon

Searched in pycord

discord.Bot.get_user

[sage tendon]

status is not a user attribute

[rugged lodge]

Searched in pycord

discord.Guild.get_member

[shell radish]

also legally, the people you are taking the status from should consent to have their data being collected

this isn’t a problem until bot verification, but something to note

[grizzled loom]

make sure to make a check, so it uses fetch when get returns None.

alright

[autumn gust]

hey, any idea why my message command isn't appearing, nor does the ping command?

@bot.slash_command(name="ping", description="Check if the bot is alive.")

the discord api is slow to deploy new commands or update their informations

just wait a bit

ah

discord api bad, got it

[short obsidian]

yep

[lapis dock]

Generally the API is fast about it now. Try the solutions below if it still does not work

.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.

how to add description to an slash's option in slashcommandgroup? i don't find it in docs

[red mist]

I take it you wish to add a description to a group?

You can add a description to a group when creating them
https://docs.pycord.dev/en/stable/api/clients.html#discord.Bot.create_group

bot.create_group("name", "description")

[atomic fern]

nope

i mean add description to option

add a description into "arg" argument

wait are you using the @option decorator or not?

because this might be of interest to you then; https://github.com/Pycord-Development/pycord/blob/master/examples/app_commands/slash_options.py

thnk u

[atomic fern]

nope

maybe i should try that

[sinful juniper]

@lapis dock I have now installed pip install -U git+https://github.com/Pycord-Development/pycord and it's working now in my code editor.

probably, option descriptions always were weird, which is why I decided to use the decorators

[sinful juniper]

I have to install this on my host too, don't I?

[mighty otter]

Hey! I have some questions! Can anyone tell me how to make a command be able to run before the same command's first usage if finished? (My wordings bad so lemme explain)

Let's say i have a command that takes some time, and i used the command >long_command. before it returns me a result, i want to use >long_command again, but when i do, the code waits for the first one to return a result first, and then starts the second one. I want to make it more efficient by running both of them immediately once the command is recieved, so instead of waiting 2 long commands, i save some time buy running them in parallel. Any way i can do that? Thank you!

[lapis dock]

If you are using async properly this sohuld not happen. You need to make sure that you have no blocking code in your command. If you need help finding the blocking code send it here and I will help.

Some common blocking functions: time.sleep should be asyncio.sleep. Also the requests library is blocking you should use aiohttp or httpx

[deft kestrel]

how i can make the bot send a message every time somebody is getting on live in YouTube?

[lapis dock]

I found this

you can use run_in_executor method with asyncio

Also the top answer here has 2 alternatives to selenium. Or you could try threading but not sure if that works well with Pycord.

[mighty otter]

How could I implement that to pycord?

[short obsidian]

take this as an example

i'm using that as a helper

[mighty otter]

so you suggest i use concurrent.futures.ThreadPoolExecutor?

[short obsidian]

worked for me

[mighty otter]

I mean i did try but didnt rlly succeed, i will retry looking at this code

does the other def has to be just def or can it be async def

user object has no attribute add_roles

    @commands.command(aliases=["botinfo", "bot-info", "binfo", "bi", "boti"])
    async def botinfó(self, ctx):

I think you can't have an alias being the same as the original command name

try removing "botinfo" from aliases?

[wise parcel]

its not the same. botinfó and botinfo is different

but okay i will try

still nothing

[sage tendon]

why the hell does your command name have an ó

[shell radish]

I think it's a

not an

[wise parcel]

because in hungary we spell it like that

[sage tendon]

i think it was common practice to not use any special characters in code ever

[wise parcel]

it worked

[sage tendon]

my bet is that it's that

[sage tendon]

no

[shell radish]

only if you're english-centric

[sage tendon]

No, in general

ideally, code should be written in english anyway :)

[shell radish]

i beg to differ

but wrong channel for this

[sage tendon]

removing the ó from the name?

[wise parcel]

no the command worked before today

like it was working yesterday

[shell radish]

yes

[wise parcel]

any idea whats the problem?

[shell radish]

do all your commands not work?

and a bunch of things in your main.py that you've shown are not defined

[wise parcel]

nope only the commands in basic.py

[wise parcel]

they are but i didn't send the whole code because i didn't wanted to show it

but they are just random commands

[shell radish]

does moving to a different cog work

[wise parcel]

nope

what should i do?

[wise parcel]

hmm

[wise parcel]

hmm sorry i just found it. i got this error when i start it RuntimeWarning: coroutine 'BotBase.load_extension' was never awaited client.load_extension(f"cogs.{filename[:-3]}") RuntimeWarning: Enable tracemalloc to get the object allocation traceback

[lofty parcel]

You have conflicting libraries. Show your pip list.

[deft kestrel]

member = await guild.get_user(int(user_id))
object has no attribute get_user
Also I tried fetch_user / fetch_member but error was same no attribute fetch_member

[wise parcel]

yeah i figured it out btw thanks for the help

[lofty parcel]

It's get_member

Read the docs.

[deft kestrel]

Same error

[lofty parcel]

Where and how did you define guild

[deft kestrel]

guild = self.bot.get_guild(1185946025479909447)
            member = await guild.get_member(int(user_id))
            role = guild.get_role(premium_role)
            if premium_roles:
                await member.remove_roles(premium_roles)```

[lofty parcel]

1. get_member isn't a coroutine.
2. Show me the whole traceback

[deft kestrel]

In the first case, I copied it wrong

[lofty parcel]

get_guild is returning None

That means the bot isn't in that guild or the guild isn't cached or the guild ID is invalid

[vital bramble]

Is it possible to get the bot object from anywhere in my program?
Like a decorator that gets the bot object from the global scope or something and does something with it?

Ofc I mean the wrapper getting the bot object (so at runtime), not the decorator.

[lofty parcel]

In cogs you receive the bot object on the init

Otherwise you'd just be in your main file where your bot object is there

[deft kestrel]

I tried many options, but id 100 lumens correct

[deft kestrel]

The bot is also 100 percent located on this server

Since every time it starts, it enters a channel in the voice on the server

[lofty parcel]

What's stopping you from using ctx.guild?

[deft kestrel]

import discord
from discord.ext import commands, tasks
import sqlite3
from datetime import datetime
from main import *

class PremiumCheck(commands.Cog):
    def __init__(self, bot):
        self.bot = bot
        self.check_expiration.start()

    @tasks.loop(seconds=1)
    async def check_expiration(self):
        conn = sqlite3.connect('database.db')
        cursor = conn.cursor()
        current_time = datetime.now().strftime('%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S')

        cursor.execute('SELECT user_id FROM premium_user WHERE end_time <= ?', (current_time,))
        expired_users = cursor.fetchall()

        for user_id_tuple in expired_users:
            user_id = user_id_tuple[0]
            guild = self.bot.get_guild(guild_id)
            role = guild.get_role(premium_role)
            member = guild.get_member(int(user_id))
            if premium_roles:
                await member.remove_roles(role)
            cursor.execute('DELETE FROM premium_user WHERE user_id = ?', (user_id,))

        conn.commit()
        conn.close()

    def cog_unload(self):
        self.check_expiration.cancel()

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

[shell radish]

is bot.guilds populated or empty

[vital bramble]

I was actually looking for something lower level. The gc module should be what I was looking for 🙂

That way I can actually get the bot instance even from a utils function

Although that might actually not be good practice... Well, whatever xD

[sage tendon]

what do you even need that for

[vital bramble]

Some weird decorator that I wrote so that I don't have to pass the bot during an object instantiation xD

[sage tendon]

wtf

[vital bramble]

Basically I wanted to access the bot in a decorator wrapper for a method in a Modal

But didn't want to just pass the bot to the Modal xD

don't ask me why

Oh I know why: I like to overcomplicate things before I can actually make them simpler

[vital bramble]

Do modals that have timed out not get deleted from the modal store automatically?
I can successfully submit a modal that has already timed out... Is that right?

Even when I do modal.stop() it can still be submitted successfully

pycord v2.4.1

[hazy turret]

Is the time zone of the server where the bot is running used or is the time zone displayed for everyone as the Discord settings are for the user?

[deft kestrel]

how to get rid off this error?

[little cobalt]

that is not py-cord

they ara the old discord.py slash commands

[lofty parcel]

bro joined the wrong support server

[deft kestrel]

ok

[deft kestrel]

can i get starting code for pycord?

[deft kestrel]

rude

[red mist]

perhaps start with reading the docs or watching some basic tutorials of newly slash commands in py-cord

[little cobalt]

Why is that rude?

[red mist]

the guide is a little outdated but it may be of aid

[deft kestrel]

can you write the code

[red mist]

my man, this is a support server, not a code writing server >-<

[little cobalt]

You should create full new project and rewrite your bot with py-cord

[deft kestrel]

ok

[little cobalt]

We are not gonna write the code for you...

[deft kestrel]

plz

[red mist]

._.

no.

https://guide.pycord.dev/getting-started/creating-your-first-bot

come back here when you have got actual questions, we will not be writing code for you, this is a support server not a code generating server. dito.

[lapis dock]

It will be the users timezone settings. To get it to work properly you may have to pass a UTC time though.

[little cobalt]

interaction.user

not author

but you should get a error for it?

[lofty parcel]

Or read the docs

[vital bramble]

intellisense...

[deft kestrel]

AttributeError: module 'discord' has no attribute 'Bot'

After py-cord-dev got deleted idk how to fix this

[little cobalt]

use the git one

[deft kestrel]

tried that already

[little cobalt]

take a look at here -> #app-commands message

Can you show the pip list if its still the same error

[deft kestrel]

it had discord.py in there mb

i think that was the prboelm

let me relaunch

shit yeah

alr thank u

[cursive zealot]

Hey guys, I was wondering if there's an easy way to stop the bot ?
I made a command to stop it, but it doesn't work properly: the bot itself closes its connection to the Discord API but the process doesn't stop, does someone have an idea to make it stop the process also ?
Here's my code from my bot class (which is a subclass of discord.Bot)

async def stop(self):
  """Stops the bot"""
  await self.close()
  exit(0)

And here's the error message when I force the process to end with a control-C:

^CException ignored in: <module 'threading' from '/home/mathis/.pyenv/versions/3.11.7/lib/python3.11/threading.py'>
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/home/mathis/.pyenv/versions/3.11.7/lib/python3.11/threading.py", line 1590, in _shutdown
    lock.acquire()
KeyboardInterrupt: 

Thanks 😄

[vital bramble]

Where and how are you running the bot?

usually you can just stop the bot in the console by using ctrl + c

[cursive zealot]

For now simply on my own computer (I have an oracle server but I just launch the bot without nohup from my computer to test it (so python path/to/main.py

[cursive zealot]

Yes but i would like to avoir this as the bot will be deployed to a server

[vital bramble]

it's the same on servers though...

[cursive zealot]

And I don't want to connect to the server every time I want to stop the bot properly

[vital bramble]

oh ok

gimme a moment

try

await self.close()
self.loop.stop()

[cursive zealot]

Same, it stays stuck until I control-C

and same error

seems like it gets stuck waiting for a lock

[vital bramble]

try to implement this:

def _cleanup_loop(loop: asyncio.AbstractEventLoop) -> None:
    try:
        _cancel_tasks(loop)
        loop.run_until_complete(loop.shutdown_asyncgens())
    finally:
        _log.info("Closing the event loop.")
        loop.close()

def _cancel_tasks(loop: asyncio.AbstractEventLoop) -> None:
    tasks = {t for t in asyncio.all_tasks(loop=loop) if not t.done()}

    if not tasks:
        return

    _log.info("Cleaning up after %d tasks.", len(tasks))
    for task in tasks:
        task.cancel()

    loop.run_until_complete(asyncio.gather(*tasks, return_exceptions=True))
    _log.info("All tasks finished cancelling.")

    for task in tasks:
        if task.cancelled():
            continue
        if task.exception() is not None:
            loop.call_exception_handler(
                {
                    "message": "Unhandled exception during Client.run shutdown.",
                    "exception": task.exception(),
                    "task": task,
                }
            )

after or before the loop.stop()

That's basically what the bot does on ctrl+c

[cursive zealot]

what is the _cancel_tasks ?

[cursive zealot]

Oh ok that's smart i'll check the source code

[vital bramble]

oh, yeah. sorry xD

[little cobalt]

await bot.close()

should be right

https://docs.pycord.dev/en/master/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.Bot.close

[vital bramble]

but that wont stop the loop does it?

[cursive zealot]

It stops the connection but not the process

even with an exit just after

I feel like the problem "comes" from asyncio, as the error message is always on the lock.acquire

[vital bramble]

yeah some coroutines are locked

[vital bramble]

I added them to the message

But as already said, take a look at bot.run(), that's where all that is implemented

[little cobalt]

close is killing the process for me

[cursive zealot]

You launch you bot like that ?

[vital bramble]

Right, for me too...

I just tried it

@argobot.slash_command(...)
async def stop(ctx):
    await argobot.close()

[cursive zealot]

Here's my bot class:

class ArgoBot(discord.Bot):
    def __init__(self, description=None, *args, **kwargs):
        super().__init__(description, *args, **kwargs)

        self.load_extension('cogs.diver_info')
        self.load_extension('cogs.admin')
    
    async def stop(self):
        """Stops the bot"""
        await self.close()
        print("hello")
        exit(0)

[cursive zealot]

I have the same thing

async def stop_bot(self, ctx: discord.ApplicationContext):
        if not ctx.author.guild_permissions.administrator:
            await ctx.respond("You don't have the permission", ephemeral=True)
            return
        
        await ctx.respond('Stopping the bot', ephemeral=True)
        await self.bot.stop()

[vital bramble]

try removing the exit(0)

[cursive zealot]

doesn't matter the hello is never printed (and it wasn't working before the exit)

[vital bramble]

try adding this to the main file and stop it with the /stop command
does that work?

[cursive zealot]

I'll try wait

Ok i think i found the problem

@argobot.event
async def on_ready():
  await database.init_db()
  await argobot.stop()
  print('Launching bot')

If i put await argobot.stop() before the db init it stops

and if I put it after it doesn't

[vital bramble]

Oh, you're using a db

yeah, you need to stop that too

[cursive zealot]

yeah aiosqlite so that's probably why

[vital bramble]

yeah

that won't get stopped by bot.close() so it locks the loop

just overwrite the bot.close() method like this:

class MyBot(discord.Bot):
    async def close(self):
        await database.stop() #or whatever it is
        await super().close()

then you can use bot.close() and the database will be closed too

[cursive zealot]

yes that was the problem, it works now thanks 😄

[lofty parcel]

I already provided you the docs link

[lofty parcel]

Read the docs.

[young skiff]

thank you so much

[deft kestrel]

how i can make the bot send a message every time somebody is getting on live in YouTube?

[lofty parcel]

You integrate that with YouTube's API or whatever they use.

[deft kestrel]

oh ok

[short obsidian]

@lofty parcel before bot run then?

[lofty parcel]

Yes

[short obsidian]

thanks

[loud kayak]

How do I set a cooldown for a command with a specific amount of time (determined in the command's function) using commands.cooldown?

[velvet cradle]

you want to be able to update the cooldown from inside the command? so, if the command takes longer, the cooldown is higher? you could use some cooldown, and manipulate the bucket you are using, if that is, what you want to achieve

own question:

in file /discord/ext/commands/converter.py
there is
CONVERTER_MAPPING, which is used to determine, which converter is used for which type.
is there any better way to override a specific converter than putting it in there when my bot starts?
I want my threads to be resolved, even if the bot needs to call the api for this (archived threads)

[loud kayak]

You didn't even answer my question

"use some cooldown"

Doesn't help.

[velvet cradle]

oh, ok, I thought the problem was, that you did not know, how to manipulate the cooldown, give me a second

[loud kayak]

I'll just wait for a helper or someone reputable.

[velvet cradle]

https://docs.pycord.dev/en/stable/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.cooldown just use this decorator.
if you want to be able to "change the waiting time", you might need to create your own decorator (just look at the source) which enables you to pass the cooldown object yourself, instead of the type of bucket.
store this cooldown object somewhere and you can manipulate it

a few weeks ago, I created my own cooldown object to limit the clicks on a button by user which clicked it
it is possible, but I just do not know, how much you know about these things

[lofty parcel]

Why do you need to manage the cooldown from the command

[loud kayak]

It's an apply command and the application has a setting for how long the user has to wait after applying to use the command again.

Application cooldown if you will.

[stray pasture]

is there a way to use a Role from one guild in another guild with a bot ?

[lofty parcel]

Why would you use a role in another guild

[stray pasture]

a shared bot between 2 server for a event

[lofty parcel]

Roles are per guild.

They have a unique ID for the guild

[stray pasture]

that is what I though, but I read online that bot have a nitro like permissions for roles

(they can use role from other guild to another)

like if you have nitro

but not sure if true

[lofty parcel]

Bots don't have nitro

Nitro doesn't even do that

Bots can't randomly give a role from X guild in a Y guild.

[stray pasture]

no I dont mean give a role, just use it in text

[lofty parcel]

Uh? As in?

[stray pasture]

like: Hi ! You won 2

and be the same emote in the 2 server

[lofty parcel]

You can't mention a role that's from another guild.

It won't parse.

You could just use the name.

[stray pasture]

I see, so the role should exist in both server right in order for it to work ?

[lofty parcel]

No?

I'm literally not understand what you want to do.

WHY do you need a role from another server

HOW do you want to use such role

[stray pasture]

the user would run the command, after that the bot will respond: You have won x {emote}

I want to use the same emote in both server

[lofty parcel]

Emote or role

You literally mixing stuff now

[stray pasture]

I mean emote

[lofty parcel]

Girl

Emote or role

Are you dumb, I'm for real askingn

[stray pasture]

emote

[lofty parcel]

Why do you say emote when you're asking about a role

AND NOW YOU SAY EMOTE

We wasted 10 minutes arguing about some imaginary role when it was just an emote.

[stray pasture]

there is emote in the last 3 message, I just use the wrong world at the start

not everyone speek english as native language

[lofty parcel]

English is not my native language

Role and emote are not even a remotely close word.

Now that we agreed you want an EMOTE.

[stray pasture]

I just use the wrong word, why are you getting so worked up

[lofty parcel]

You just upload it to some private server of yours and just copy it.

[lofty parcel]

You wasted 10 minutes of our lives and literally confused the hell out of me by using the wrong word more than 4 times.

[stray pasture]

well mistake happen, I did not meant to use the wrong word on purpose and I am sorry for that.

[little cobalt]

What is your native language?

[deft kestrel]

how i can move a specific text channel into a specific category?

[lofty parcel]

https://docs.pycord.dev/en/master/api/models.html#discord.TextChannel.move

Read the docs.

[sage tendon]

man the rude role does fit

[deft kestrel]

thats true

but what parameter i need to use? category?

[lofty parcel]

The docs tell you.

[sage tendon]

yea

[deft kestrel]

yea to what
to use category or to look in the docs?

[sage tendon]

both

[deft kestrel]

very specific

[sage tendon]

if you dont want it sorted i think you only need the category and maybe sync_permissions param depending on what you need

[deft kestrel]

thanks

[little cobalt]

Should I use discord.Cog or commands.Cog for a bridge bot?

[shell radish]

discord.Cog if you only have application commands

[little cobalt]

So I have to use commands.Cog for both, I see ;3

Anyone know off-hand if you're able to get the reddit username of a user who has connected reddit to their account and joined your server? Last I checked this was not the case but was hoping it'd changed

[deft kestrel]

so i am trying to put the bot up and it keeps saying it is not finding a module discord

can anyone quick help me?

[lofty parcel]

Show your pip list

[deft kestrel]

mo pip list except pycord its a new server

[vital bramble]

if it's really only pycord in the pip list, there's something wrong...

[meager token]

httpx.LocalProtocolError: Illegal header value then bots discord key

oh wait fuck I did it wrong

[vital bramble]

I don't think you can actually use two command decorators on one function can you?
Also the class name is triggering me xD

[meager token]

accept.

[vital bramble]

It just defies common practice xD

[meager token]

most understandable function names when its only you working on the project

[meager token]

class accept_vw(discord.ui.View): # Create a class called MyView that subclasses discord.ui.View
  @discord.ui.button(label="Post", style=discord.ButtonStyle.success) # Create a button with the label "😎 Click me!" with color Blurple

  async def bcd(self, button:discord.Button, interaction:discord.Interaction):

it still not working 😭

same error

[vital bramble]

can you send the exact error pls

[meager token]

httpx.LocalProtocolError: Illegal header value b'eyJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiIsInR5cC..bot key

[lofty parcel]

The whole traceback

And preferably the file too.

[vital bramble]

but seems like you got something wrong with the bot key...

there is a \n at the end

also now regen you bot key

[meager token]

oh shit yeah I made a new key its like a fourth of the size

well now it says improper token

[meager token]

its not my discord key its the key to my database

where tf is it getting the key to my database

[vital bramble]

is it an environment variable?

[meager token]

no I just made a file and .readlines()

[vital bramble]

can you just show us your code please? How you start the bot and add the token etc...

[meager token]

.

[meager token]

oh

[lofty parcel]

What the hell is that way of storing secrets

[vital bramble]

use .env file and use the dotenv library to load it...

[lofty parcel]

Use a doenv if you want to do it properly

[vital bramble]

Yeah. Like in the guide

https://guide.pycord.dev/getting-started/creating-your-first-bot#protecting-tokens

[meager token]

💀

so uhm I fixed it it didnt have anything to do with pycord

I jsut assumed it did

[vital bramble]

obviously xD

[meager token]

also dotenv wont install because AttributeError: module 'importlib._bootstrap' has no attribute 'SourceFileLoader' this is with --use-pep517

idk wth I did to make it do that

[vital bramble]

me neither...

[deft bronze]

How can i get the ID's of the people who reactioned to a msg?

should be smt like msg.reactions[0].users()

[vital bramble]

yes

[vital bramble]

async for user in message.reactions[0].users:

https://docs.pycord.dev/en/stable/api/models.html#discord.Reaction.users

or users = await reaction.users().flatten()

[deft bronze]

returns none

await msg.reactions[0].users().next() shows them but only using next

its strange xd

[tepid coyote]

can options in slash commands be dropped depending on a previous option?
e.g
/add <x> <y> <z>
if y is 0 dont ask for an input for z

[deft bronze]

you can just ignore z

@vital bramble sorry i just read correctly your answer

thank you, it worked

[vital bramble]

yeah, it's actually users() at the end.
also you can just use users = await reaction.users().flatten() to get a list of users or just go read the docs yourself

[fiery stratus]

Hey, I'm trying to make a global error handler whenever one of my checks fails for a command. Even though I've set up a dedicated check for this exception, its still going through. Why is that? It works for some commands but doesn't work for others.

[pseudo pebble]

I am trying to work on coding challenges, and was trying to find how to replace values. Ex. I want to change all e's someone puts in with f.

[fiery stratus]

def replace_e_with_f(string: str) -> str:
  return string.replace('e', 'f')

[pseudo pebble]

Ok so the string is being modified with .replace?

[fiery stratus]

no strings in python are immutable

def replace_e_with_f(string: str) -> str:
  return string.replace('e', 'f')

string: str = "hello"
replace_e_with_f(string)
print(hello)```
will print `>>> hello`

[pseudo pebble]

Thank you for the explanation.

How do I set a cooldown for a command with a specific amount of time (determined in the command's function) using commands.cooldown? I have an apply command and the application settings has a cooldown time, and I want to apply that cooldown when the command is done.

[little cobalt]

I have to test something after that I can tell you if its possible ;3

But it should be possible to do

[loud kayak]

Ok I appreciate it, I didn’t see anything in the docs that was clear

A command object only has the reset_cooldown, is_on_cooldown, and get_cooldown_retry_after methods.

[little cobalt]

mhm

I know that you can create a cooldown without the decorator

[loud kayak]

It’s just not in the docs so idk how

[little cobalt]

cd_mapping = commands.CooldownMapping.from_cooldown(1, 60, commands.BucketType.user)

bucket = cd_mapping.get_bucket(ctx.message)
retry_after = bucket.update_rate_limit()
if retry_after:
  await ctx.send("Error")
else:
  await ctx.send("Text")

That also works with buttons and menus

[loud kayak]

Would you be able to explain to me how that works?

[little cobalt]

No, I found that at searching for a cooldown for the on_message event

[loud kayak]

Oh I see, thanks

[little cobalt]

https://stackoverflow.com/questions/65940721/cooldown-for-on-message-in-discord-py

[loud kayak]

Doesn’t seem to work, it always says the user isn’t rate limited, unless I understood the usage wrong.

[little cobalt]

Can you set the cd_mapping = commands.CooldownMapping.from_cooldown(1, 60, commands.BucketType.user) outside of the command?

[loud kayak]

I need the seconds to be changed in the command since in the command is where I have the application data fetched from the database, which is what application a user is submitting a response for.

[umbral gazelle]

how to unmute bot in voice?

[robust ginkgo]

Since you can't defer before sending a modal, is there any other similar alternatives?

[spark ibex]

how do i add a callback to this?

need to do it this way since i cant predefine all options

tried this but it annoyed and i cant figure out how to give it what it wants

and if i run it anyways... Application Command raised an exception: AttributeError: 'method' object has no attribute '__discord_ui_model_type__'

[fleet cedar]

You can simply create a select menu using the decorator with some placeholder options and then override the options inside the init

For example

class MyView(discord.ui.View):
  def __init__(self, select_options):
    super().__init__(…)
    self.my_select.options = select_options

  @discord.ui.select(…)
  async def my_select(…):
    …

Notice the callback name and the method I am calling in the init

[spark ibex]

Ok thanks that worked

Do you guys know how some bots have certain commands that are visible only to mods like Arcanes xp set level?

How can I replicate that?

When I get home can you help me? I'll be home at 3:00 PM EST

[vital bramble]

I can try...

[deft kestrel]

I am home now if you wanna help

[vital bramble]

Make a post in #969574202413838426 , I'll help you there.

[vital bramble]

bro don't just randomly ping me for a problem please. It's for replying to me, not for getting help.

there is a typo in the second line...
also what errors did you get?
also have you tried google?

google says that?

bro idk ask chatgpt or whatever but if you want to get help here, describe what you're trying to do, what the problem is, what errors you get and what you have already tried to solve the problem.
a.k.a. everything in #help-rules ...

[lofty parcel]

Just use ctx.edit

What?

I said ctx.edit

I never said var.ctx.edit

[deft kestrel]

😂

[green kernel]

Is it possible to have a view with multiple reusable buttons? Think I've had an issue in the past where Discord would say I already sent a response or something and error out.

[lofty parcel]

Responses are per interaction.

You can use the view as many times as you want as long it doesnt timeout or your don't disable the buttons.

[green kernel]

Hmm 🤔 so as long as I don't send a response (e.g. defer instead?) it's fine?

[lofty parcel]

No...

You have to respond

[green kernel]

Hmm. Maybe I should explain what I'm trying to do better to give you an idea of what I'm working with.

I've got this blackjack game (vs the bot only) that uses emojis right now. You can hit any of the two reaction emojis to change the state of the game until you win or lose (or draw).

Issue with this is that reactions are painfully fucking slow compared to buttons from what I've noticed.

But the thing is, these reactions can be pressed over and over again (the bot removes the user's reaction after they click on an emoji).

Is it possible to have a system like this with buttons or do I have to figure something else out?

[lofty parcel]

Yes. That's what I told you.

You can click buttons whatever many times you want as long as the view doesn't timeout or your disable the buttons.

[green kernel]

Ah, see my concern with no response is that the user will get some kind of response timeout error, won't they? Because it'll just infinitely wait for a response.

And a deferred response still seems to count as a response? So sending multiples of those isn't really an option is it? Or can I send the deferred response once and let the user keep clicking after?

[lofty parcel]

You can just defer it (which will send an interaction failed message after like 15 minutes) or edit the message passing no new things

[lofty parcel]

You can defer and the user can click everytime

Every click is a new interaction

[green kernel]

Gotcha, thanks.

[stoic patio]

so my bot is in a big server with 2fa moderation enabled

how do i make it work even without 2fa

[edgy nest]

the bot owner needs to have 2fa enabled

[stoic patio]

oh

i see

thx

[deft kestrel]

I know that this question is not on the topic of the server, but hosting support simply does not answer me, so I solved it here.

What to do if requirements.txt I add py-cord But the result is an error no module discord

[little cobalt]

Can you show what you have in the txt file?

[deft kestrel]

py-cord

That's all there is

I found something when I tried to install hosting py-cord These are the errors

[glad garnet]

You're using Python 3.12, Pycord currently doesn't support that, next update will, however. I'd recommend downgrading to 3.11

[deft kestrel]

Thank you very much, I'll try it now

[spark ibex]

How do I add / remove items from a view? Like I want to be able to add buttons if the user selects a certain option from a selector, and remove the buttons and add anothrr delector if they change the option

[rugged lodge]

Searched in pycord

discord.ui.View.add_item

[spark ibex]

Ok thanks

[quiet siren]

Quick question, I currently have a View with 2 Dropdown menu and a confirm button, right now when someone select an option on the dropdown menu it the response go though fine, but how do i make it so that the user's side don't show "This interaction failed"? Do I ping the interaction or something?

[little cobalt]

The "Interaction failed" is from discord and not py-cord

[quiet siren]

yea i know but like, do i make pycord side send out a ping or something so it doesnt' show that?

Or will it always happen?

[little cobalt]

it will always happen

[quiet siren]

right.. i should probably just send a small message or something so it doesn't confuse users then

[little cobalt]

unless you set a timeout or edit the view so they cannot press the button again

you can "lock" the views so they cannot press it anymore

[karmic solar]

guys, how to make a similar feature for commands?

for example, I have a /account command that I would like to add to this list

[rugged lodge]

Here's the context menus example.

[karmic solar]

thx

[tepid coyote]

is there a reason why auto complete and options stop working, was setting up a slash command with auto complete and it was working fine, added a few more options and it stopped syncing with the new options and the autocompete wont load

[reef lake]

whats causing this exception
await interaction.followup("Your LFG channel has been deleted.")
TypeError: 'Webhook' object is not callable

[little cobalt]

But you know that you can only see 25 at discord?

[tepid coyote]

im way below the 25 limit

[little cobalt]

it doesnt have a limit

it only shows 25 at autocomplete

the options have a limit of 25

[tepid coyote]

okie, thought they applied to both, nice to know

but either way its between 4 and 14

options

[reef lake]

new question, how do i get discord to update my slash commands, i added a new one but its not appearing nor usable

[little cobalt]

Do you have the commands in a cog?

[reef lake]

no

[shell radish]

.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.

[fierce fable]

how to i set my embed's colour to a custom hex value?

[little cobalt]

color=

[fierce fable]

ive already tried that, but i get Expected discord.Colour, int, or Embed.Empty but received str instead.

[fierce fable]

@little cobalt ??

[little cobalt]

usually 0x992d22 should work?

[fierce fable]

oh, thanks :3

[smoky trench]

hi hi i have a quick question, i have a command using autocomplete a function for choices.

the choices come from a database which is a dictionary that contains the name of the option, is there a way to let that name be the choices the user sees AND keep the dictionary in scope for the actual command function?
