Basic Pycord Help

[heavy sky]

Does anyone know why I'm getting No module named discord.utils when trying to import wavelink? I am using version 3.1.2 of it

[red mist]

I believe, when you pip installed Wavelink it installed discord.py by itself again, usually when installing extra packages you need to make sure it doesn't install the dependencies

So

What you do is you both pip uninstall discord.py and py-cord

And then pip install py-cord

Then you can try running it again

[heavy sky]

Oh, ok. Imma give that a try now

[red mist]

lemme know if it worked

^~^

[heavy sky]

Will do 🙂

That seem to have worked. Thank you so much!

[red mist]

Yw :)

@commands.slash_command(
    @option("artist", description="Artist Name")
    @option("song", description="Song Name", choices=["Official", "Unleak", "Other"])
    )
   ``` How can i use Options in cogs ?

@vital bramble

[sage tendon]

i do it like this

[cunning stirrup]

the thing is @option("artist", description="Artist Name")
^
SyntaxError: invalid syntax

idk why i imported it

[sage tendon]

yea because you do it inside the slash command generator
do it outside
i think you can do it inside? but just do it like i do it tbh

[cunning stirrup]

kk thx

[little cobalt]

I do it like

@slash_command()
@discord.option(name="name")
async def command_name(self, ctx, name: str):
...

[sage tendon]

yea so same as me

oh

[little cobalt]

nope ;3

[sage tendon]

you dont import option specifically

cringe + L + ratio

[little cobalt]

do added str to the option()

that I what I not did x3

[sage tendon]

yea idk, i'm minimalistic, i would have left it out if it wasnt required somehow

so

:3

[cunning stirrup]

'SlashContext' is not defined

hmm do i have to import that ?

[lofty parcel]

That doesnt exist

It is discoed.ApplicationContext

[cunning stirrup]

oh thx

[little cobalt]

discord*

;3

[lofty parcel]

Shut

[little cobalt]

xd

[cunning stirrup]

how do i add buttons ? and what should i import?

[little cobalt]

https://guide.pycord.dev/category/ui-components

[cunning stirrup]

thx

[tame portal]

is there a way to get the timestamp from the ApplicationContext in a slash command?

ctx.interaction.message and ctx.message are both none

[lofty parcel]

What timestamp?

[cunning stirrup]

button = discord.ui.Button(style=discord.ButtonStyle.success, label="Accept Request", custom_id="accept_request")
            view = discord.ui.View()
            view.add_item(button)

         
            song_request_channel_id = 1198607104525733909 
            song_request_channel = self.bot.get_channel(song_request_channel_id)

            if song_request_channel:
                request_message = await song_request_channel.send(embed=embed, view=view)
            else:
                await ctx.send("Error: Song request channel not found.")
                return

            def check(interaction: discord.Interaction, message_id: int):
                return interaction.custom_id == "accept_request" and interaction.message.id == message_id

            try:
                interaction = await self.bot.wait_for("button_click", timeout=60.0, check=lambda i: check(i, request_message.id))
            except asyncio.TimeoutError:
                await ctx.send("Request not accepted. Time expired.")
                return

            if interaction.component.label == "Accept Request":
                
                await interaction.user.send("You accepted a song request! Please send the audio file.")
      ``` any idea why the button says interaction failed but i dont get any errors

[tame portal]

the datetime object of when the command was sent

[lofty parcel]

That doesnt exist

Just do it.yourself with datetime

[tame portal]

mm fair enough

[lapis dock]

You don't have a callback on the button. You should take a look at the guide. It can help you get started. Currently you are making things hard on yourself.

[steep cliff]

Currently using SqlAlchmey as my db ORM. I know it can be asynchronous, but my current setup is not, seems to be working fine tho. Do I have to make it asynchronous?

[glad garnet]

yes, once your bot surpasses a certain amount of people using it at once it will consistently freeze and eventually cause it to constantly disconnect from Discord and basically never work

[steep cliff]

Oh dang, just realized I already switched to asnyn code but forgot :)

[green oar]

Hello there, is there a "preferable" way to store data when making discord bot ? I was gonna use sqlite but idk

The purpose is to save basics data when users use reaction

[shell radish]

sqlite will work

[green oar]

There's nothing inplemented in python / pycord like local storage or something similar to android ?

[shell radish]

local storage is for apps/websites. Databases are for all programs

[green oar]

Okay, great hen

Thanks for answers !

[prime hill]

quick question: how to supress embeds for slash command responses

[lofty parcel]

What?

[lofty parcel]

Suppress as in?

[prime hill]

as not embed links in the response

[lofty parcel]

You mean when sending links?

Just wrap the link around a <>

[prime hill]

i know that but i saw discord.py docs has a message flag called "supress_embeds"

[lofty parcel]

I'm sure it exists too.

[prime hill]

what am i doing wrong

[lofty parcel]

Probably the webhook doesn't have that kwarg.

[lapis dock]

It does not exist for slash commands responses
https://docs.pycord.dev/en/stable/api/models.html#discord.InteractionResponse.send_message

[hexed herald]

hey, I have an autocomplete context. Am I somehow able to clear the cached answers?

like I first generate a set of answers but if the user changes the first parameter I need to generate other answers for the second parameter

in the second picture the parameter is different but the autocomplete results are the same

[little cobalt]

With ctx.options["option name"] you get the selected option

So you could change the autocomplete like that

[hexed herald]

yeah, my current code for the second param looks like this

def value_choices(ctx: discord.AutocompleteContext) -> list[str]:
    """Responds with every Role or Channel depending on the setting and searched term"""
    values = []
    entered = ctx.value
    setting: str = ctx.options.items().mapping["setting"]
    if setting is None:
        return ["Please select a setting first"]
    elif setting.endswith("Role"):
        for role in ctx.interaction.guild.roles:
            if entered in role.name:
                values.append(role.name)
        return values
    elif setting.endswith("Channel"):
        for channel in ctx.interaction.guild.channels:
            if entered in channel.name:
                values.append(channel.name)
        return values
    else:
        return ["A super rare bug appeared and I don't know why!"]

but if the second param is once generated it won't change without any input

unless you redo the whole command selection

everyone may ping me in response to the above

[deft kestrel]

Code:

import discord
from discord.ext import commands

bot = discord.Bot()

Error:

PS C:\workspace\digi> python bot.py
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "bot.py", line 4, in <module>
    bot = discord.Bot()
AttributeError: module 'discord' has no attribute 'Bot'

Info: I did pip install -U py-cord before that

[hexed herald]

are you in an virtual environment?

that may cause problems if you don't install the package inside it

[lofty parcel]

Show your pip list

[grizzled loom]

I've got

user: discord.Option(discord.Member)

as part of a slash command. Option and implementation is working.
My question is if there is a simple way to refresh the data for "user" at command execution.

Yes yes, I know, this .Option does make sure a member is used as an argument. However it is possible to insert a member, kick the member(or the member leaves after the command was typed but before the typing person hit enter, which can be a large window of opportunity) and only then run the command.
In the aftermath, which i spare you here = D, it can lead to data storage about a user who is no longer part of this specific guild.

Enough said; work you magic please (also please do ping me when you do)
Edit; py-cord-dev==2.5.0rc5

[deft kestrel]

how

[lofty parcel]

By running pip list?...

[lofty parcel]

You have python 3.7

The newest python version that works with pycord is 3.11

[deft kestrel]

ohhhh python

i thought pycord

[lapis dock]

It was both, you had old of both

[grizzled loom]

Don't you work with separated environments for your projects?

[deft kestrel]

no

[grizzled loom]

why not? this list is.. well.. a mess. needlessly harder to maintaine.

[deft kestrel]

never thought about it

[grizzled loom]

hmmm

[deft kestrel]

may be a good idea tho

and yeah it really looks like a mess haha

i recognize only half of it

[grizzled loom]

did you try pycharm? it does it for you when ever you hit create new project

[deft kestrel]

i use vscode

isn't there an extension for that maybe?

[grizzled loom]

and the free version is great for python. granted, its only good for this one language, but there is pretty solid 🙂

[deft kestrel]

i have jetbrains ultimate

i only used intellij

i really dont know what pycharm is like

you know what you hyped me up now

[little cobalt]

its a IDE

[grizzled loom]

idk, isn't there an extension for most anything when you look? 😄

[deft kestrel]

im gonna try pycharm tomorrow

[deft kestrel]

no shit sherlock

[little cobalt]

xd

[deft kestrel]

XDDD

[deft kestrel]

yeah there is hahaa

[grizzled loom]

😂

[deft kestrel]

fr pycord on top

[little cobalt]

you can create a env with

python -m venv env

[strong rain]

Thanks. My bot hosting services was having some network issues, resulting in performance issues

I have this code snippet: py async def on_guild_channel_update(before, after): overwrites = after.channel.overwrites overwrites[after.guild.me] = discord.PermissionOverwrite(read_messages=True) return await after.edit(overwrites=overwrites)But I get this error:py Ignoring exception in on_guild_channel_update Traceback (most recent call last): File "/home/container/.local/lib/python3.11/site-packages/discord/client.py", line 399, in _run_event await coro(*args, **kwargs) File "/home/container/main.py", line 497, in on_guild_channel_update await after.edit(overwrites=overwrites) File "/home/container/.local/lib/python3.11/site-packages/discord/channel.py", line 859, in edit payload = await self._edit(options, reason=reason) ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ File "/home/container/.local/lib/python3.11/site-packages/discord/abc.py", line 491, in _edit "id": target.id, ^^^^^^^^^ AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'id'

[little cobalt]

"NoneType"

[strong rain]

after shouldn't be "None", as that would fall under on_guild_channel_delete, unless on_guild_channel_update also is an event handler for deleting channels?

[grizzled loom]

should I make this a topic so it doesnt get lost?

Also; where is this silly squid when you need it? 🤨

[grizzled loom]

I'd simply include a 'if is not None' check, or a little more elegant, if you can trace where exactly it fails

if hasattr("thingythatfails", "attrthatsmissingwhenitsNone"):
  # other code

one could ofc also build an error handler for this case.. but I am lazy 😄

[loud kayak]

What do you mean by refreshing the data?

[little cobalt]

So... I have a serverconfig for my bot and Im not sure if I should use a file for it or send everytime a requests to my database

[loud kayak]

Better to use a database like MongoDB

[little cobalt]

I use MongoDB already for member data

but also for a privat bot with a server config?

[loud kayak]

What I do is I have a document in a collection (collection is specific to bot). Each document has the _id as the guild’s ID, for easy access.

Then I have a document with _id as BOTCONFIG for global stuff.

[grizzled loom]

let give you an example.

    @slash_command()
    async def some_name(self, ctx: discord.ApplicationContext, user: discord.Option(discord.Member)):
# other code here

User uses the command, gives @loud kayak as an option, goes for a beer, you leave his server, he comes back home and hits enter.

Now there is a member object recieved even though there is no member anymore.
Furthermore when the slash command is a command that saves data (in this case an id and a boolean value) it'd store your id as part of this server even though you are no longer on it.

[loud kayak]

That’s not even possible. A user can’t leave a server then have text in a channel.

[little cobalt]

so you full use the Database for all the bot stuff?

[loud kayak]

And no you can’t manually chunk a user into a guild’s members list.

[loud kayak]

Yeah

[little cobalt]

even the token at the db?

[loud kayak]

I put the token in .env

For each bot

[little cobalt]

I usually use a json for it

[loud kayak]

not a good idea

.jsondb

f

[grizzled loom]

it is possible*, i tested it.
*not to have text in a channel but to be used as an argument for a slash command

USER A starts the slash command and mentions you. so @loud kayak is written (written, not sent) as argument for the command.
then you leave
only then user A hits enter. you, in this case your member object gets send to the bot(presumably cached?), even though you no longer exist there.

[loud kayak]

.nojson

[sly karma]

JSON is a convenient and easy-to-read data storage protocol that's widely accepted by most programming languages. However, we caution against its use for storing and retrieving data in an asynchronous environment like a Discord bot. Don’t use json!

• It's a file-based data storage, which makes it vulnerable to race conditions
• You'll need to implement your own synchronization primitives to avoid corrupting data
• If you're not careful, you could accidentally wipe your entire JSON file.

Solution? Use a database. Recommended schema are SQLite, PostgreSQL, and MongoDB.

• Async libraries exist on pypi for each of these
  sqlite -- aiosqlite (or Danny's wrapper: asqlite)
  postgresql -- asyncpg
  mongodb -- motor
• Databases organize your data into tables, and are fast at inserting, retrieving, and removing records
• You can impose uniqueness constraints to ensure against duplication
• The Python libraries enforce synchronization for you
• The query language is intuitive, you can get running with simple queries in just a few hours!

[little cobalt]

I dont use json as a db

[gilded crow]

is it possible to have bridge groups and then a second group

like this

/vcrole humans add [SLASH]
?vcrole humans add [PREFIX]

how would i do it?

as BridgeCommandGroup

only has @command deco

[frail basin]

just give the subcommandgroup its own subcommandgroup

[gilded crow]

what?

can you provide a example

[deft kestrel]

danke sehr

[plucky moss]

Only 2 including this one.

[silk spire]

Only one will work. Consider using the .listen("on_message") decorator and renaming both

[plucky moss]

That was quuick 💀

[plucky moss]

Do on_message_deletes also count?

[silk spire]

No

But that can also use the listen decorator if you wa t

[plucky moss]

Ok thanks

Its working thanks.

[river oriole]

Does anyone know how I can set the Starter Message for Threads? I use a Webhook which creates the thread but sends the message then as normal message and not as Starter Message. Also for some odd reason is display_name the username

[swift gust]

"Display Name" is what comes up when i message: My name will be Fentanyl provider when my actual username is poosec.gg

[little cobalt]

what is your py-cord version?

?tag pomelo

[limber wagon]

Before Pomelo-

member.name          -> username
member.nick          -> guild nick name
member.display_name  -> member.nick OR member.name

After Pomelo-

member.name          -> username
member.global_name   -> global display name (global nick name)
member.nick          -> guild nick name
member.display_name  -> member.nick OR member.global_name OR member.name

[swift gust]

oh no sorry i was answering this guy^

"is display_name the username"

[river oriole]

Im using the latest Py-Cord Version from PyPi: 2.4.1
But I also tried global_name, but that property doesnt exist on the GuildMember for me. I guess the PyPi Version isnt updated yet

[little cobalt]

you could try the master branch

?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

[river oriole]

I know. But I cant easily roll back versions then. atm I do py-cord==2.4.1 and update only when I verified that the code works for newer versions. And when I need to reinstall the packages and I dont use a fixed version then it might be that the code breaks

I guess i just cope with it

[gilded crow]

Bump

[little cobalt]

Did you took a look at the docs?

[gilded crow]

yes

it has no docs for bridge sub groups

[nova epoch]

Using py-cord==3.0.0, I cannot get VSCode to recognise the discord import...
Trying to use ```py
import discord
from discord.ext import commands

bot = discord.Bot()``` but apparently none of that exists.

Thanks so much in advance.

[shell radish]

https://github.com/Pycord-Development/pycord-v3/?tab=readme-ov-file#introduction

[nova epoch]

Lovely, thanks so much!

[little cobalt]

message.content

[atomic fern]

so i have a bot event that resend a attachment sent from member in channel to specific channel but then delete the original message that contain the attachment, but the attachment always 404 after a few minutes, how i can make it permanent or at least not expired in a week?

it is said that proxy_url only lasts for a few minutes after original message was deleted

[little cobalt]

do you send the file again?

or just the url

[atomic fern]

message.attachments[0]

in an embed image

[little cobalt]

usually if you have a message with a image and the message is getting deleted, the image url will also not work anymore

[gilded crow]

Bump again

[little cobalt]

I also cannot really find the sub group

mhm

[gilded crow]

Working on this thing for the whole day now

Dpy supports multiple sub grouping

Can’t someone create a PR

[atomic fern]

is this are not sending again the file?

# assume there is an embed object
embed.set_image(url=message.attachments[0])
await channel.send(embed=embed)

[little cobalt]

not if the message before got deleted

[atomic fern]

solved, ty

[nova epoch]

Having a bit of a bigger issue now...
Can't import either pycord or discord - have also tried py_cord, discordpy and a few other things.
Can't find anything on the docs either

[lapis dock]

Well py_cord and discord.py should not work.

Can you show pip list?

Also you are aware that V3 is not really functional for actual projects?

[nova epoch]

I am, just doing a little bit of messing around for when it becomes a full release (yes, I am also aware that it may change substantially before that point, but I am also horiffically bored). In python3 -m pip list I have both py-cord and pycord packages (not too sure where the second one came from, will probably remove if it's not needed) and the discord package as shown in the screenshots attached.

[lapis dock]

pycord is just a random unrelated library. The discord package is also not needed. And v3 should never need to import discord I believe.

[nova epoch]

Okay- managed to get it to finally work. Only took reloading the python interpreter a few times. Now apparently pycord.Bot doesn't exist but I'm assuming that's because it's recognising the pycord lib instead of py-cord so will uninstall both (pycord & discord, keeping py-cord) and will see.

[lapis dock]

👍

[nova epoch]

Still same error even with both unnessicary packages uninstalled: Traceback (most recent call last): File "c:\Users\there\OneDrive\Desktop\utcp-student-hub\utcp-bot\main.py", line 4, in <module> bot = pycord.Bot(pycord.Intents()) ^^^^^^^^^^ AttributeError: module 'pycord' has no attribute 'Bot'

^ That's code that I copy-pasted from the v3 docs too...

[little cobalt]

Im not sure if it is a good idea to use py-cord v3

[nova epoch]

That idea crossed my mind too. Just wanted to play around with it but seems like it's gonna be too much hassle. Just gonna head back to 2.4.1 I think.

[young skiff]

How can I implement Linked Roles with my bot?

[steep cliff]

What size can images in embeds be?

[little cobalt]

Im not sure if there is a limit for a embed image

as long there it is a gif or image

[steep cliff]

fair enough

making a request to an api and can get pretty much any image size, any clue what it renders like/what to request?

[little cobalt]

I hope you do it with aiohttp and not requests x3

[steep cliff]

its a python twitch api lib, making the requests async tho

[little cobalt]

TwitchIO?

x3

[steep cliff]

https://pytwitchapi.dev/en/stable/index.html

what's the best way to cache results for autocomplete functions? Don't wanna make API/DB calls all the time...

[little cobalt]

store the data in some way

[steep cliff]

@lru_cache?

don't think that would work as the input is different while the output might stay the same

I'll think about it

[lapis dock]

I use TTL (Time To Live) for autocomplete as generally if you are caching something that means it can change overtime so you dont want it never being updated. For a larger bot you might need to combine it with LRU as the backup when the cahce gets full.

[steep cliff]

Thx

What is this error?

running the discord bot on a hosting server for the first time on that host

aight nvm, i fixed it

just updated pycord lmao

[marsh nymph]

Is there a way to implement individual buttons? Like 1 user has 4 different things and for each thing it spawns 1 button, another user has only 2 things and so on

Is there a way to achieve this?

[little cobalt]

yes

[marsh nymph]

Do you have an example for me?

[little cobalt]

https://guide.pycord.dev/interactions/ui-components/buttons

[marsh nymph]

So how do i add a callback for each individual button? So sometimes there are 5 buttons and sometimes there are 2 and they may have different labels for each user.

[little cobalt]

you could subclass a button and change label at it

you could also create 25 buttons x3

that would be the limit if im right for button amount

[lapis dock]

You would need to have a button that generates a view using View.add_item to spawn a view catered to the user.

[deft kestrel]

wtf is this shit

that happens when i do pip install py-cord

[little cobalt]

if you use Python 3.12, you have to install the master branch

?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

[little cobalt]

that is not the master branch

[deft kestrel]

oh

i thought -m maybe stants for master XD

how can i install the master branch

[little cobalt]

that is the master branch

[deft kestrel]

pip install -U git+https://github.com/Pycord-Development/pycord

this one?

oh okay, thanks 🙂

[little cobalt]

ye

[deft kestrel]

😡

[little cobalt]

That is weird

[deft kestrel]

😭

[grizzled loom]

when a member leaves a server does the bots cache update automatically?

[deft kestrel]

was soll ich machen

würde python re-install vlt was bringen

[little cobalt]

Dat kannste proberen

[deft kestrel]

ok

trye jetzt

omg

ich weine

[little cobalt]

At the end you could just install Python 3.11 instead

[deft kestrel]

will that make it work

i had 3.7 installed before

[little cobalt]

uh

Py-cord is 3.8+

[deft kestrel]

ChatGPT says the error happens

wait

"Install Microsoft C++ Build Tools"

[little cobalt]

oh

yea

[deft kestrel]

i installed them

still same error

💀

[little cobalt]

I just have VSCode and Visual Studio installed for C# and C++ stuff x3

[deft kestrel]

x3

😡

[little cobalt]

uh

I use a second SSD for games

[deft kestrel]

i have 3 SSDs

i have ordered one with 4tb

but it doesnt work bc it's M2

and my pc/mainboard is from 2018

💀

brooo

why 😭

[grizzled loom]

wasn nun schon wieder?

your missing parentheses:

bot = discord.Bot()

check this out for more details about the basics:
https://guide.pycord.dev/getting-started/creating-your-first-bot

[deft kestrel]

works nnow

[deft kestrel]

no im talking about the autocompletion

it doesnt say "Bot"

i know the basics ive been using this for years

[grizzled loom]

Didn't mean it in any bad way 🙃
Can't say much about auto-complete though. has been a while since i used anything but pycharm for python code and it just works so fine there, Tod would've been proud!

[deft kestrel]

oohhhhh

i didnt think you meant it in any bad way

ur fine dw

❤️

[dim raptor]

wait how can i make it so that there is a general /help command and /help <module> cmd without it giving me an error that the command already exists

[shell radish]

discord limitation. You can’t

You can have a help command with an optional option called module tho

[low solar]

Hello, so basically my command that i made in a cog file doesnt show up (i suppose the cog doesnt load but i dont really know)

async def load():
    await bot.load_extension("cogs.wyciek") ```
thats how i load the cog (it gave me errors so i made it into async def and awaited it, it fixed the issue)

```python
import discord
from discord.ext import commands
from discord import option
import json
import base64
from discord import guild_only
intents = discord.Intents.all()
bot = discord.Bot(intents=intents)

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

    
@discord.slash.command(name="wyciek", description="muehehehe")
@guild_only()
async def wyciek(self, interaction, nick):
#rest of the code

thats the start of the cog

def setup(bot):
    bot.add_cog(wyciek(bot))```
and thats the end

[cunning stirrup]

any idea why my shlash commands say interaction faild or smthing like that but they work fine?

tag me when respond thx

[low solar]

you can defer the interaction at the start of the command, it should fix the issue

if you interaction.respond for example just add interaction.respond.defer() after async def

[low solar]

edit: the cogdoesnt load

[little cobalt]

Why do you await the load_extension?

[little cobalt]

Do you use ctx.send?

[lapis dock]

Yeah, you need to put load_extension on the same indent level as bot.run preferably right before bot.run.

[low solar]

like that?

[lapis dock]

👍

Only py-cord

i did

[little cobalt]

I just wonder what selfcord is

[low solar]

discord.py-self but renamed

so it doesnt interfere

[low solar]

after reinstalling still the same error

[little cobalt]

Uninstall selfcord.py if its actually discord.py

Yes if i use ctx defer then its thinking foreever the fix i found is to send a message for a sec then delete after

i did

same error

i changed the class name and setup to "meow" and now it runs without an error but the command doesnt work

[lapis dock]

can you show a screenshot of your file structure

[lapis dock]

Is the command indented correctly?

[low solar]

by file structure you mean screenshot of the code? cuz i dont really understand

[lapis dock]

on discord it is not but might just be a copy paste issue

like this

[low solar]

the json file isnt in cogs visualstudio is trippin

[lapis dock]

there is no reason for these lines of code

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

in your cog file. That should be setup in main. I think that is the problem, you are overwting bot or something.

[low solar]

lemme see

i removed the 2 lines command still doesnt show up

@discord.slash_command(name="wyciek", description="muehehehe")
@guild_only()
async def wyciek(self, interaction, nick):

    await interaction.respond('Check dms!', ephemeral=True)
    user = interaction.user```

thats how thte start of the command looks

i dont think there is nothing wrong with it ?

[lapis dock]

Can you go through this checklist

.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]

I think that is all true for you

[low solar]

i checked it couple of times before everything is how it should

if pycord 2.4.1 is the newest version ofc

[lapis dock]

It is the latest stable but it should still work for your needs.

[low solar]

it says that self is not accessed

maybe its the issue?

[lapis dock]

and the command is indented in the cog class?

class wyciek(commands.Cog):
    def __init__(self, bot):
        self.bot = bot   
    @discord.slash.command(name="wyciek", description="muehehehe")
    @guild_only()
    async def wyciek(self, interaction, nick):
    #rest of the code

yeah, i think your indentation is off, with that waarning

[low solar]

import discord
from discord.ext import commands
from discord import option
import json
import base64
from discord import guild_only


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

@discord.slash_command(name="wyciek", description="muehehehe")
@guild_only()
async def wyciek(self, interaction, nick):
#rest ```

[lapis dock]

you just need to indent your entire command+decorators one level

[low solar]

discord.errors.ExtensionFailed: Extension 'cogs.meow' raised an error: AttributeError: module 'discord' has no attribute 'slash'```

[lapis dock]

somewhere you have discord.slash when it should be discord.slash_command

[low solar]

in the cog i onl have 1 command so

it works

thanks 🙏

[lapis dock]

ye that needs to be discord.slash_command not discord.slash.command

🎉

[low solar]

i spent last 4h trying to fix it lmao

[sour flint]

Hello is it possible to make a slash command only visible to the owner of the bot or atleast a select few

[lapis dock]

Overall, you would have to create a guild command for your support server or something. And then use the integration menu to limit it to your needs.

You should still include permission checks in the callback in case someone with admin should not be able to use the command.

Or something

[sour flint]

oh thx ❤️

[sly ember]

i have a tag command where it has to create a Tag ID when i create a tag, but somehow its always none, and when i want to delete the tag i get this error, any help?

[little cobalt]

what is tag id?

[celest atlas]

Could you show the code that generates the error, and why are you not checking to make sure it is not none before trying to insert it?

[sly ember]

ihow can i do that?

[sly ember]

like i have a tag command same as @rugged lodge bot, and i wanted to have a "tag id" whenever a tag is created, so when i want to delete a tag, i can just enter the id of the tag so i can delete the right one

[celest atlas]

As taken from the help rules channel

Step 4 - After The Solution Is Found
If you are in "General Help" say that you fixed your issue.

If you are in your own thread use the </close:1001466583253786657> command to close the thread. This helps support staff find active threads faster.
Do not delete messages in your thread so that if someone has the same issue as you they can see how it was solved.
If you have another question it would be best if you close and start a new thread.

Other Notes

• Remember that support staff are not active at every moment so it might take a bit for your question to get answered.
• Other users that are not a support staff also can give you valuable information
• When posting code you should use the format (If posting an error do not add py)

```py
Your code
```

• Whenever possible do not post an image or screenshot of your code. They are hard to read and support staff often copy and paste bits of the posted code to give support more quickly.

[sly ember]

okay wait

this should be the function where the id should be created and the command where the id should be shown, i hope this is enough, if not tell me

[celest atlas]

I'm not seeing anywhere in that code where you are returning a tag_id to the code that is generating the error

[sly ember]

sorry here:

                    
    @tag.command(name="delete", description="Lösche eines deiner Tags")
    @discord.option(name="tag_id",  required=True, autocomplete=autocomplete_context)
    @commands.has_permissions(ban_members=True)
    async def delete(self, ctx: discord.ApplicationContext, tag_id: str) -> None:
        if tag_id.startswith("Nothing"):
            await ctx.respond(embed=discord.Embed(description="Es wurden bisher **KEINE** Tags erstellt.", color=discord.Color.red()), ephemeral=True)
        else:
            async with self.bot.pool.acquire()as conn:
                async with conn.cursor(aiomysql.DictCursor)as cursor:
                    await cursor.execute("SELECT title, input_text FROM tags WHERE tagsID=%s;", (int(tag_id),))
                    temp = await cursor.fetchall()
                    await cursor.execute("DELETE FROM tags WHERE tagsID=%s;", (int(tag_id),))
                    await conn.commit()
                    removed = discord.Embed(title="Removed", description=f"Der Tag mit der ID: **{tag_id}** wurde gelöscht", color=0x019296)\
                        .add_field(name="Tag Titel", value=temp[0]["title"], inline=False)\
                            .add_field(name="Tag Inhalt", value=temp[0]["input_text"], inline=False)
                    await ctx.respond(embed=removed)

this is where the error is from in the image

Hi, is there a feature implemented to use the discord monetization feature?

Btw Am I Getting This Error.. Just Started Now,, Until Now It Was Working Fine Now This Error

[serene goblet]

Can you have both a placeholder and value on discord.ui.inputtext?, I can't see a notice in the docs which suggests that you can't but maybe I'm just not seeing it.

[lapis dock]

If you are sending a DM that use probably does not have DMs on

[scarlet knot]

btw that user is me myself.. and I have the dms On.. Literally it was working 30mins ago

[lapis dock]

You can, the placeholder will just not be shown unless the user deselects the default value.

[lapis dock]

Can you DM other users? The only thing I can think of is discord temp banned you from sending DMs due to you send "unsolicited" DMs or something. I think that is a different error tho.

I'm not able to help you debug at the moment sorry.

How would I use BridgeCommandGroup? I found this but im either dont get it or it doesnt work anymore like this. I have this:

tags = bridge.BridgeCommandGroup("")
    @tags.bridge_group()
    async def _(self, ctx: bridge.BridgeContext) -> None:
        pass

But that says that the String needs to be a coroutine. So do I need to use the function there?

[little cobalt]

you use commands.Bot

you have to use bridge.Bot

[river oriole]

Ohhh

[little cobalt]

also at the main file

[river oriole]

Ye figured that. Thank you so much

[river oriole]

Another quick question. ctx.respond is either reply or respond according to the Command Type. When I use the old Commands and add mention_author=False it replys to the message without a Mention. However if I do a SlashCommand it fails, since respond doesnt accept mention_author. Is there another Attribute which works for both, reply and respond or do I need to make a Helper Function for it

The first two responses are without mention_author, the last 2 are with it

[little cobalt]

you can check with ctx.is_app if its a slash command or not

[river oriole]

Ye I know. So I would need to make my own small helper for it

I found another workaround which seems more practical for me. I use allowed_mentions which are available for both, text messages and application messages:

await ctx.respond(f"> Tag `{name}` wurde erfolgreich erstellt", allowed_mentions=discord.AllowedMentions(replied_user=False))

[fresh totem]

Hey how do we setup timeout for View in this case:

  class chooseUser(discord.ui.View):
    def __init__(self, editEmbed):
      super().__
      self.embed = editEmbed

    async def on_timeout(self):
      self.disable_all_items()
      await self.message.edit(content="You took too long! Buttons disabled.", view=self)

        await ctx.respond(embed=rpsEmbed, view=chooseUser(rpsEmbed, timeout=30))

[lapis dock]

You can pass timeout= to the super().__init__() in the init of the view

[fresh totem]

        class chooseUser(discord.ui.View):
            def __init__(self, editEmbed):
                super().__init__()
                self.embed = editEmbed
                timeout=30

            async def on_timeout(timeout):
                self.disable_all_items()
                await self.message.edit(content="You took too long! Buttons disabled.", view=self)```

does this look correct

[shell radish]

no

[fresh totem]

        class chooseUser(discord.ui.View):
            def __init__(self, editEmbed, timeout=30):
                super().__init__(timeout=timeout)
                self.embed = editEmbed

            async def on_timeout(self):
                self.disable_all_items()
                await self.message.edit(content="You took too long! Buttons disabled.", view=self)```

wht about this

Thank you!

[river oriole]

How can I use on_command_error with bridge.Bot? My old ErrorHandler which worked fine with commands.Bot doesnt work anymore and I couldnt find a Listener for bridge.Bot

[young cove]

I have a simple bot that I want to host along with an sqlite db so I set up a digital ocean vps today and got it working. However, being really uncomfortable with the command line and linux in general (I use pycharm and sqlitebrowser), I'm considering pivoting to a windows virtual machine through azure. Mostly because it seems like it would be easier to use, particularly as I update the bot and manage the db, but I might be wrong. If anyone has a few minutes, I'd love some thoughts on the pros and cons. Is the ubuntu vps worth the steep learning curve? If so, why?

[grizzled loom]

there isn't that much to learn for this purpose. you set up a useraccount with sudo privileges (really easy, you'll find tons of tutorials and good instructions about this step).

then you need to know "cd" -> change directory, to navigate "ls" - list storage to see whats in the folder you're currently in. apt update and apt upgrade + apt dist-upgrade for seeing what new packages are availible + installing them.

ssh - to remote in to your virtual machine. basically giving you a remote terminal. doesnt matter if you use ssh from a linux or windows machine. it's standard for server administration of any kind.

once inside navigate to the folder your bot lives in and you can start it with:python3 filename.py or to have it also runing once your terminal is closed nohub python3 filename.py &
In the second case your bot should have some shut-down command (bot.close()) in your code you can reach via some command OR you can kill it through htop

htop - shows you whats running and allows you to kill processes. closest thing to this in windows would be the task manager as a terminal tool. a little ugglier but with same functionallity: top. simply type one of the two in your terminal, they are self explanatory and should be pre installed.

scp - for transfering files from your machine to your server or vise versa

other than that the install instructions for pycord. there is linux instructions. pip doesn't change at all. sqlite works the exact same as in windows, so if your bot is set up correctly it should do its thing.

That's about all there is to it.

[grizzled loom]

about the why. Sure I could write down a long long list of reasons, but at the end of the day its an operating system. find your reason or stick with windows.

[little cobalt]

and I use Raspberry OS

xd

[steep cliff]

Have a link that doesn’t changed while the image it links to does. Want to edit the embed to update the image, but it doesn’t, probably cause discord caches media proxy assets. I tried adding random query parameters (eg. the current time) to make the links different, but the image still doesn’t update. Any ideas?
||sorry for crossposting, figured I broke it down enough to fit it in here instead of the thread.||

[lapis dock]

I was hoping someone would be knowledgeable enough to reply to your thread.
The only thing I can think of is changing the link somehow.

You could try just adding a # to the end of the link as

Everything after a # in the URL will not be sent to the server.
If this works, you could just add and remove that to make discord think it is a different link.
Otherwise I would ask in DDevs

[young cove]

Thank you for the comprehensive reply! I guess the question now is are there actually any downsides to the azure/windows hosting approach?

[steep cliff]

I’ll give it a try, but don’t expect anything different to happen than when I used query parameters. They behaved really weirdly, sometimes updating the image but then not. Already asked in ddevs but got ignored. Will prob ask again as concise as possible

[grizzled loom]

sounds like you're asking other to convince you one way or the other.

Alright; Here is a practical reason.
When you get deeper into IT you'll need to learn at least some basics about server administration and therefore Linux at some point, regardless of your specialty. Hosting your Bot is a comparatively simple thing to do with a low threshold | point of entry.

If that's not reason enough or you're scared to run something via terminal only or for some reason just fancy windows; go for your azure approache.

[young cove]

Thank you the insight!

[dawn prism]

Hi everyone, quick question here. Do you know if it's possible with py-cord library to get/set permissions to a slash command (not talking about has_permissions decorator) so I can easily show them in a custom help ?

Thanks for the answers ❤️

(Since has_permissions is just checking on the call and not storing them anywhere it's not what I want)

[grizzled loom]

you can find the specific permissions a user using a slash command has inctx.user.guild_permissions # ctx being discord.Application.Contextnot exactly sure what you are looking for or your goal is

[dawn prism]

I want to show in custom help which permissions are required to use a slash command

I can implement my own way, but wanted first to know if it's already implemented since i found nothing

[grizzled loom]

I see. have some similar logic in place. I dont display it except for a few lines within the bots help text.
With my bot its kick permissions that are relevant and because users who can't kick manually shall not be able to bypass those permissions dangerous commands include a line that's roughly(typing this from memory):

if not ctx.user.guild_permissions.kick_members:
    return await ctx.respond("you need at least kick permissions to run this command. Please contact an admin")

havent found a better way to do it. there were decoraters, prohibiting usage without certain permissions, but they didn't respond.
tbh: I did not research it further after this point, cause the solution worked for me, so I moved on to the next part.

[dawn prism]

Okay thanks.
Yep I think I will use a custom class to store this

[grizzled loom]

mind to share this part + throw me a ping when you have? maybe it contains sth. that's useful to my bot. and even if not; i am nosy

[dawn prism]

👌

[steep cliff]

Adding the # stops the image from showing up

[dawn prism]

@grizzled loom Just discovered that @discord.default_permissions() update a default_member_permissions attribute for SlashCommand storing the required permissions for a user to perform a slash command (but the user can't see it at all). 🤩

Problem 🥲 , Permissions class does not give a proper str result since it just shows the 53-bit integer value of the permissions

[cunning stirrup]

@little cobalt same thing

[mild storm]

is there a way to get a user ID from @mild storm for example

[cunning stirrup]

 await interaction.channel.edit(name=f"ticket-closed-{ticket_number}")
        await interaction.response.send_message(embed=embed, view=TicketOptions(bot=self.bot)) 
        button.disabled = True
        await interaction.message.edit(view=self)
``` i get interaction failed but it works idk why can i fix it ?

mention me when someone helps thx

[grizzled loom]

how about creating a dictionary, which integer means what and translate it from there

you'd even use a dictionary as a dictionary.. sort of 😄

[dawn prism]

Since I just need this once, maybe I will just create a function that reverse it

[vapid hazel]

[cunning stirrup]

is there a way to load all slash commands at once ?

what does that mean

[cunning stirrup]

half of my slash commands doesent load

and i have to somehow load them

or if i update theme they dont update

i mean change the code

im new with lsash commands idk how to use them

sry

[shell radish]

you can comment out everything, run the bot, then uncomment everything

you may also need to refresh your discord to see new commands

[cunning stirrup]

like start without the code

then stop

then load the code ?

[shell radish]

you still need to run the bot. Just run it without commands.

then stop it, then run it with commands

[cunning stirrup]

the problem is all my normal commands with prefix are not working with the prefix so i have to make them all slash

becuse i need some slash commands

and idk if i can use both

prefix and slash

[shell radish]

you can have both text-based commands and slash commands

[cunning stirrup]

how why is my prefix not working

do i have to enable something?

[grizzled loom]

did your bot, by chance, just hit the 100 server mark?

[shy igloo]

[cunning stirrup]

[grizzled loom]

doesnt matter when it comes to intents. server count is the only thing that could change sth. (when it hits 100). member count is irrelevant. must be sth. else.

[shy igloo]

yeah but that's another library

[cunning stirrup]

i have them

[grizzled loom]

I thought you had 2 servers?

[shy igloo]

i was shocked when I learned that i've been using py-cord and not discord.py for several months

[cunning stirrup]

i meam i have them enabled intents = discord.Intents.all()
################
bot = commands.Bot(command_prefix=prefix, intents = intents)

[cunning stirrup]

Lmao

[grizzled loom]

bad design. you should use Intents.default() and add what's needed in addition. except you'd actually use all of them, hardly think that's the case. when implementing sth. new the docs always tell you when more than default is needed and what exactly that is.

when left the way it is could be reason to be denied on listing sites and/or verification later.

However for message content you also have to turn on this little switch in the developer portal. did you do that?

[cunning stirrup]

yeah but i dont think thats the problem that i cant use both

[grizzled loom]

maybe make it a topic and post some code?

[cunning stirrup]

oh im so dumb i forgot to add Self i had ctx , url

now i have a question is it possible to make like that menu when u use a command and it pops up and you can type stuff and use them

like this

[deft kestrel]

Is there a way to set my bot's nickname? I don't have a ctx object in this part of the code

I've tried:

await self.user.edit(nick="Hey Billy")
await self.user.display_name = "Hey Billy"

[shell radish]

what is self

[deft kestrel]

It's my discord.Bot
Just discovered that this might work (IntelliSense showed it):

await self.get_guild(ID).get_member(ID).edit(nick="Hey Billy")

[stray pasture]

Am I the only one that cant access the integration panel since the phone update ?

In server settings

[maiden bloom]

Does an option choice provide a dropdown?

[upbeat lintel]

Yes, if you provide the choices parameter.

Example I wrote:

platform: discord.Option(
  name = 'platform',
  type = str,
  required = False,
  choices = ['PC', 'XBOX', 'PS']) = 'PC'
)```
And the output attached as an image.

[maiden bloom]

Perfect, thanks.
Is there a way to make a conditional option appear? For example, if XBOX is selected then another option with other choices appears?

[upbeat lintel]

I think not, since until you press enter, the option is only selected in your client. But there might be a built-in way to do this, I just haven't come across it yet.

[lofty parcel]

Youd have to use autocomplete on the other option.

How can i edit a msg that the bot send previous if im using bridge cmds

Anyone else having an issue with slash commands not updating?

It can take some time sometimes

Also refresh your client with ctrl + r

It was the py-cord version

...

[dark oak]

I have a quick question:
interaction.guild.get.role(role_id) will this get the role stored in role_id?

[lofty parcel]

What are you providing

I think that's when you provide extra stuff for a specific option type

[lofty parcel]

Assuming role_id is an int, yes it should.
And it is get_role not get.role

[dark oak]

okay ty

[shell radish]

and if it is cached

[little cobalt]

I was getting that stuff for using a basic slash command in a cog

[round heart]

quick question that I don't have the ability to test out at the moment. Can custom emoji be used in buttons? For instance, on submit, updating the View to disable buttons and add a spinner emoji

Hm, docs suggest yes if I pass in a PartialEmoji or Emoji class. I've never loaded emoji this way, always just using id tags 😅

(Edit: ah, PartialEmoji.from_str("<[a:]name:id>")? )

[grave abyss]

Is there something that blocks the options if nothing has been put in the previous options? In something like this:

@bot.command(name="start")
async def start(
        ctx: discord.ApplicationContext,
        first: discord.Member = None,
        second: discord.Member = None,
        third: discord.Member = None
):
    await ctx.respond(f"User 1: {first}\nUser 2: {second}\nUser 3: {third}")

[errant trout]

not really, no

using autocomplete you can access values used in other options, but that's about it

[errant trout]

you can also use bot.get_emoji

(idk why guild.get_emoji doesn't exist, but there's always the guild.emojis list)

[deft kestrel]

Hey! I'm trying to build many (23+) slash commands with pycord to send an embed but I'm getting

But if I remove and leave just 1 slash command it's not giving the error anymore, with the same code. Any help?

Providing the code would be useful. Can't help otherwise

[deft kestrel]

Not in home, will provide asap

Nvm

Here it is

Ignore the prints and commented out functions, I was trying to debug the error

The problem is, when I add like 23 of those it suddenly gives an error

Oh shit I know the error

I did a slash command with discord of name

Very sorry for my dumbness

[dark oak]

How can I add a reaction to a message sent with a slash command? like message = await ctx.respond("lol")
Because I get this error:

discord.errors.ApplicationCommandInvokeError: Application Command raised an exception: AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'add_reaction'

ping me when an answer is here 😄

[lofty parcel]

ctx.respond doesnt return a message object

you have to get the message object with ctx.interaction.original_response()

oh, so basically like message = ctx.interaction.original_response() ?

[native laurel]

Hi, I am transfering my code from discord.py to py-cord.

The issue im running into is creating tags for a forum post, does anyone know a workaround for this?

create_tag() worked in discord.py, but it does not seem like there is a way to create a ForumTag in py-cord, even though "applied_tags" parameter requires a list of "discord.ForumTags"

Thanks in advance 🙂

[lofty parcel]

The edit method of the ForumChannel has a available_tags parameter.
https://docs.pycord.dev/en/master/api/models.html#discord.ForumChannel.edit

[native laurel]

Yeah I saw that, my issue is I want to create new tags with the code, not only deal with existing tags on the channel

[lofty parcel]

That's how you do it.

You create a ForumTag instance and pass it with the channel available tags + the new tag to the method.

[native laurel]

I guess I dont understand how to create the ForumTag instance then, I think thats where I am struggling

[lofty parcel]

myTag = discord.ForumTag(name="My Tag", emoji=discord.PartialEmoji.from_str(...), moderated=False)

[native laurel]

Awesome thank you so much

[flat spindle]

hi, just starting my first project, have a quick one. i'm understanding that cogs are a great way for me to separate my code and organize functionality. do cog commands all automatically use the bot prefix? do i have to configure any prefixing for the cogs?

[lofty parcel]

Cogs use the same prefix of the bot.

They're just an extension, not a different client.

Don't cross post.

[flat spindle]

first shot at using cogs isn't working, for some reason. works on my machine, but running it on my host the commands in the cog aren't getting recognized

[shell radish]

how are you loading your cogs

[flat spindle]

excellent question! definitely the wrong way. i just dropped bot.load_extension('cogs.greetings') above my bot.run

[shell radish]

you have a folder called cogs and a file named greetings.py?

[flat spindle]

indeed

err - mine's "utils" and not "greetings", miscopy from the pycord guide i'm referencing

    bot.add_cog(Utils(bot)) ```

this exists in my utils.py, also from the reference

[shell radish]

when you mean cog isn't getting recognized, what does that mean specifically

do you get an error or what

[flat spindle]

discord.ext.commands.errors.CommandNotFound: Command "hi" is not found``` using any commands in the cog. doesn't happen when running from my local, which is...concerning

[shell radish]

just to be sure that the code is all up-to-date between local and prod?

[flat spindle]

yeah

[shell radish]

if not that then idk

[flat spindle]

just the one branch, just made it tonight

  bot.load_extension('cogs.utils')```

is this something?

[shell radish]

yeah, it means you have conflicting libraries

do you have a requirements.txt or something

[flat spindle]

i do yes

how did you get "conflicting libraries" from that?

[shell radish]

uhh months of helping people

but that shouldn't need to be awaited

[flat spindle]

LMFAO fair enough

[shell radish]

could you send it

[flat spindle]

python-dotenv==1.0.1

i used pipreqs to generate it

guessing that the discord version is wrong, looks bad?

[shell radish]

change discord.py==2.3.2 to py-cord==2.4.1

[flat spindle]

that did it! thank you SO MUCH!

[shell radish]

you're welcome

[dim raptor]

how can i use the @guild_only() for bridge groups?

i have it like this but it doesnt work

[loud kayak]

When does bot.owner_ids get populated to where I can fetch the first item?

[shell radish]

probably before on_ready

It populates them via the discord dev portal with the application info thing

[loud kayak]

Thanks

[round heart]

Is there a way to copy button attributes to a new variable so that I can replace it later?

old_button = button

button = discord.ui.Button(...)

if some_condition:
  button = old_button

But that's by reference, right? And button doesn't have a copy().
Obviously I can do them individually, but would like something a bit easier if possible.

(actually I just realized that code wouldn't modify the View, maybe I just have to update each attribute separately)

[shell radish]

i thought all python objects have a factory method called deepcopy or something

idk haven't seriously touched python recently

[valid panther]

Regarding the buttons, I have a button that the type of finish is usually X, amount that the user indicates. It can go from 1min to 3d. The problem is that from time to time I get the error "401 Unauthorized (error code: 50027): Invalid Webhook Token". I think it's because the token in the message has expired.

Is there a time limit?

[lofty parcel]

https://docs.python.org/3/library/copy.html eh, dunno if thats what you're looking for

[flat spindle]

how would i dynamically schedule a loop? is there a way to pass the time/count/etc as a parameter in .start()?

[steep cliff]

Does on_error ever include any kwargs?

[flat spindle]

oh! does a task loop have to be in a cog? or can i work with them in any python file i create?

essentially, i'm wanting to be able to schedule loops, and have them persist if the goes down then comes back. i have a database i can use to keep track of state, but I'm not sure how to schedule an execution with a given datetime. if i read in all of my loops running from the db and have times i want them to fire, i'm not sure how to iterate over that and actually create/schedule the loops with those given datetimes.

i see a change_interval method, possibly i could use that somehow

oh, can i have multiple loops of the same task running in parallel?

[neon idol]

Hello,
I can't install pycord on windows with python 3.12 because aiohttp v3.9.0b0 is not supported (pycord need aiohttp<3.9.0, which can't compile on python 3.12)
Is there a way the cheat the prerequisites locally, or do I need to install python 3.11 ?

[edgy nest]

3.12 is supported on github master branch

[neon idol]

I'll search how to install from git then, thank you

@lyric spire please use help channels and read the above to answer your question

[lyric spire]

i didnt code it and idk pycord so idfk what any of this means 😭

[lapis dock]

You made sure to hit save after enabling the intents on the developer portal right?

[lyric spire]

yeah

it was saved as that long before i implemetned any of the code

when i was setting up the base of the bot on the dev portal

[lapis dock]

And it is the same bot? A good way to make sure of that is to Regen the token and put the new one in the code

[lyric spire]

yeah its the same bot

i think so anyway

at least, it goes online whenever i run it

[lapis dock]

Ok. Did you set up the server it is running on?

[lyric spire]

yea

well

im just running it on my

pc

im just using it for myself

[lapis dock]

Can you show the pip list

[lapis dock]

Can you show the code that has Intents, you can Ctrl+f main.py or bot.py or similar

[lapis dock]

:/ it looks like you are doing everything right.

Is there somewhere in the code that has intents=intents. Can you show that line

[shell radish]

no they didn't

[shell radish]

supposed to be intents.message_content = True

not

intents.messages = True

[lapis dock]

Add both.

[shell radish]

messages is included in default

[lapis dock]

Ah ok.

[lyric spire]

thank god

that was it

[lyric spire]

thanks 😭

[lapis dock]

My recommendation, don't commission from them again if they won't even give you a working bot.

[lyric spire]

shes just my friend and i hardly paid her anything anyway lol

also whilst we're still here, i just tried the help command and it had a panic attack 😭

help lps

pls

[deft kestrel]

the thing is

i tested with a diff library

and it worked for me

and the error didn’t say i mistyped something

and i also state on my site “i will not provide tech support figure it out yourself”

although tbf it wasn’t up when he commed me

😭

[lyric spire]

which one 🗿

[lyric spire]

yuh

[deft kestrel]

https://comms.itsaxo.lol

ur my friend tho so u got insane discount

because these prices are high

lmaooo

[lapis dock]

For further help go to the d.py server
It's possible some things are different.

[lyric spire]

good idea lol

[deft kestrel]

thank you for helping this idiot and getting him off my pp

(jk ily robbo)

(kinda

(not really)

(jk again)

[deft kestrel]

oh

did i not

remove that

from the fucking

code

it was broke

remove that

use the default help command

[lyric spire]

wdym

[lyric spire]

wha

[deft kestrel]

delete the help@command

from the code

i tried pasting in an old one i made a while back

it didn’t work

it has a default help command

Why when I want to edit a message using await Paginator.edit(), nothing happens?

    pages = [pg1, pg2, pg3, pg4.....]
    pagin = Paginator(pages=pages)
    
    await pagin.edit(interaction.message)

[steep cliff]

?

[balmy dome]

I found a solution - install py-cord-dev from other sources. Why did they remove this version, they added a lot of things and fixed old bugs, including await Paginator.edit() :(

[little cobalt]

from other sources?

[balmy dome]

Yeah

[lapis dock]

At this time master branch is the best version. The reason py-cord-dev was removed is it is because we were having issues with the main lib on pypi

[balmy dome]

When editing a message, how do I delete its files?
This code doesn't work - await interaction.response.edit_message(embed=embed, view=view, file=None)

[valid panther]

be careful with unknown sources, they may be installing other extra stuff

[shell radish]

file is for adding. You are looking for attachments = []

[balmy dome]

It worked. Thanks :)

[valid panther]

@errant trout , I hope I'm not bothering you too much. I am making a command that users can interact with the buttons, that buttons have sometimes 3h-24h waiting time. In that case is it better to make buttons do Persistent Views and when the time expires deactivate it?

The problem I am encountering right now is that if I set a timeout=time and it is longer than x hours, sometimes it fails to find the token.

[lapis dock]

I would say that persistent views are the way to go. Especially as you may need to restart your bot and losing 3-24 hours of "progress" might not be good for the user

[little cobalt]

you pinged the wrong person for that...

[errant trout]

timeout may be unreliable for longer durations, so indeed persistent would be better

[valid panther]

Sorry for the inconvenience, I mentioned him because I always see him active in responding at no time did I mean to upset

[valid panther]

Thank you very much for the suggestions, I will take them into account to improve the project

[coral lake]

Had a SUPER weird issue last night where an admin sent a slash command that sends a message in a public text chat with some basic buttons.

The bot proceeded to send the message three times and the buttons did not work at all. This seemed to be followed by action repetition in all other functions that the bot was employing.

Does anyone have any similar experience? I've double checked for circular functionality, to no avail, and I've triple checked that my bot is not multi-hosted. Not sure where to go from here. Also no on_message functions or anything of that sorts. The command functions completely as intended if I send it right now... >.<

[lapis dock]

Can you show pip list

If it works now it might have just been a discord blip.

[deft kestrel]

I was following the example but i got this error

Please...

[hybrid fossil]

What do you want to do? Send a message to the admins?

[pale scroll]

yeah

[wide jasper]

mh weird:

MEMBER: 0
Usercount edited

[grim estuary]

Explicitly specifying the type did not give anything

😞

[hybrid fossil]

You must retrieve the role from the id.
Then retrieve the role members.
Send a message to each member.

[pale scroll]

how?

[hybrid fossil]

You should make a loop for all the guils in the bot, if the id is the one you're looking for, you do the action.

[hybrid fossil]

Im not chat gpt 😭

[hybrid fossil]

Have you tried the default command?

[pale scroll]

I don't understand how to do this

[wide jasper]

huh? why should i do this??

guild = await bot.fetch_guild(ID)
len(guild.members)

should be enough i think?

[grim estuary]

What do you have in mind?

[hybrid fossil]

    admin_role = discord.utils.get(ctx.guild.roles, id=00000000000000)

    for admin in admin_role.members:
        await admin.send("Message from the bot")

[pale scroll]

where paste it?

[hybrid fossil]

This is for a slash command

You do this with a modal?

[pale scroll]

yes

[hybrid fossil]

admin_role = discord.utils.get(interaction.guild.roles, id=00000000)
for admin in admin_role.members:
  await admin.send("Message from the bot")

[pale scroll]

intercation?

[hybrid fossil]

I would have done this, imagine the bot is no longer in the guild, you'll have an error.
Plus, it lets you just loop through a simple list.

[pale scroll]

huh?

[hybrid fossil]

        # For each server where the bot is connected

dude, just tell me where this code paste

NOT combine them

[lofty parcel]

I already told you what you have to modify. It was just one line.

You even typed that line before and I even told you where to place it.

I'm not going to do it for you, no one here will.

We don't spoon feed here. You are not a baby.
