Basic Pycord Help

[lofty parcel]

You said you used to use discord.py, these are concepts used in d.py too.

[pale scroll]

there dont work modals

it`s bad module(d.py)

[lofty parcel]

Coroutines are present everywhere. Not just in modals.

[pale scroll]

in responds

in sends

everywhere

wtf

@lofty parcel

sorry for mention

I feel useless to anyone, I’m dumber than a cat, plus I’m blind, I don’t deserve to be a programmer and a bot developer

[lofty parcel]

You're doing ctx.respond when you should be using ctx.send_modal. Don't know why you modified that line /shrug

[pale scroll]

thx, dark, but it don`t send result in my dm

[fresh totem]

class cardCommands(commands.Cog):
    def __init__(self, bot_: discord.Bot):
        self.bot = bot_

    card = SlashCommandGroup("card", "View, Trade and Sell your Cards!")

    @card.command()
    async def inventory(self, ctx: discord.ApplicationContext):
        "View your Card Inventory"```

This is a group command, how can I lock the `inventory` command to server admins only

normally I use:
```py
@discord.default_permissions(administrator=True)

but this doesn't seem to work with group commands

[shell radish]

permissions can only be assigned to top-level commands like card

why? ask discord

[fresh totem]

fair enough

how can we add it to the top-level command here => card

[edgy nest]

i think there's a default_permissions kwarg

i might be wrong

[pale scroll]

Hi for all

how to command author mention paste in embed result modal?

[floral ice]

how do i use @option

[outer niche]

this example explains it pretty well
https://github.com/Pycord-Development/pycord/blob/master/examples/app_commands/slash_options.py

[floral ice]

okay thanks

[little cobalt]

Doesnt really matter because of the version

The version is broken

[floral ice]

1 more thing, when i create cog class, how can i access the bot object in @slash_command decorator? i need to access bot.main_guilds (custom attribute)

[grim estuary]

I solved the problem, I moved the group object to the class attributes

[floral ice]

i just need some of the commands in cog to be only in the main guild

[valid panther]

I am not trying to deal with the timeout problem:

ERROR:asyncio:Task exception was never retrieved future: <Task finished name='discord-ui-view-timeout-2840ebd01534e1844d2f1979a8c4d407' coro=<ButtonsMatch.on_timeout() done, defined at /app/commands/global/match_games.py:94> exception=HTTPException('401 Unauthorized (error code: 50027): Invalid Webhook Token')> Traceback (most recent call last): File "/app/commands/global/match_games.py", line 105, in on_timeout await self.message.edit( File "/usr/local/lib/python3.10/site-packages/discord/interactions.py", line 1194, in edit return await self._state.interaction.edit_original_response( File "/usr/local/lib/python3.10/site-packages/discord/interactions.py", line 428, in edit_original_response data = await adapter.edit_original_interaction_response( File "/usr/local/lib/python3.10/site-packages/discord/webhook/async.py", line 221, in request raise HTTPException(response, data) discord.errors.HTTPException: 401 Unauthorized (error code: 50027): Invalid Webhook Token

Why does the button say that the message does not exist if it does?

[shell radish]

What's your timeout? Is it greater than 15 minutes?

[valid panther]

yes

[shell radish]

yeah then the interaction expired

[valid panther]

is for a button to prox of duration 1-3h hours

[little cobalt]

Is it possible to mention a role without pinging everyone who got the role?

[shell radish]

Depends on what you mean by that

[little cobalt]

If you send a normal text message and mention a role in it

[shell radish]

I should clarify. Whom do you want to ping?

Is it no one or a subset of people that have the role?

[lofty parcel]

You might just want to send a normal msg then

[pale scroll]

How to create option args

[rugged lodge]

Here's the cooldown example.

[valid panther]

the idea is that the message is updated, this is what it looks like now

It doesn't happen every time you do that commands older than one day have worked without problems and you can modify the message.

[lofty parcel]

Then save the original response which gives you a message object.

And then edit it.

[warm jay]

I can't install Pycord

[little cobalt]

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]

use the master branch

[warm jay]

I need to install VS?

[lofty parcel]

Read the website and follow the steps

[obsidian stratus]

@bot.slash_command(description="Add xp to a user in a particular server.")
async def add_xp(ctx, guild_id:str, user_id:str, exp:str):```
Why is it giving me "input a valid integer" when I try using the command

🤔

I'm trying to parse a string into integer later in my code but idt this should affect it

For some reason it's only allowing integers 2^53 (When I'm trying input as a string)

[noble flax]

Trying to create a fuzzy autocomplete feature for my bot, how can I retrieve the "option" that has been typed for my fuzzy search? At the moment I'm return the below, how can I retrieve the "unit" in the options? do I need to pass something in the method?

This is my full function

[warm jay]

IT fails to INSTALL

[lofty parcel]

Comment out the command, run your bot and remove the comment and run again.

[lofty parcel]

AutocompleteContext.options returns a list of past selected options. If that's your question.

[noble flax]

ah

The idea is "unit" should have the string of the thing I'm looking for

I want to then pass that to the fuzzy lookup

[lofty parcel]

Is unit an option the user selects?

[noble flax]

typing the unit should then return the options based on a fuzzy return

[lofty parcel]

Then refer to this.

So you don't pass it to the autocomplete function.

Autocomplete only receives its own context

ctx.value returns the value the user is inputting

[rugged lodge]

Here's the slash autocomplete example.

[lofty parcel]

See ^

[noble flax]

Thank you so much

[warm jay]

I installed VS 14.0+, and installing still fails

I already installed the VS thingy

for c++

[sage tendon]

unless you really really really need 3.12, just use 3.11

[warm jay]

:( okay

[maiden bloom]

Which event reference is for button presses?

[little cobalt]

on_interaction

But that is also for Menus and slash commands

So you would have to check for it

[maiden bloom]

How can I put an emoji in a button?

[maiden bloom]

Thanks, I think I figured it out by using the button view instead

[lofty parcel]

There is a emoji= kwarg

Read the docs

[maiden bloom]

I added it and it says it takes in a string but I'm getting an invalid emoji error from this. I'm sure it's obvious but could you point out what I'm doing wrong?
@discord.ui.button(label="Create Ticket", emoji=":envelope_with_arrow:", style=discord.ButtonStyle.primary)

[lofty parcel]

Eh, try emoji=discord.PartialEmoji.from_str(":envelope_with_arrow") or look for the emoji online and pass it to emoji=

[maiden bloom]

Copying it from online worked, thanks

[coral lake]

I'm following up on this (sorry for extremely late reply). I've narrowed down the occurrence. It only happens when I send the message with @ everyone in a public channel and the users spam the buttons attached to the message. Once the button spam commences, the message resends again and again for as long as they continue to spam it.

Again, ZERO circular functionality in the code, zero on_message, and a very basic button response function.

PIP attached

context: #1132206148309749830 message

[maiden bloom]

Do button views expire? The button I want to act off of will be created and just sit there for a long time. Can I still use a view callback in this case or does it have to be on_interaction event listener?

[fervent shoal]

hey everyone is it better to create a new thread or add to a similar thread?

[lofty parcel]

Buttons have a default timeout of 3 minutes

[lofty parcel]

Create your own thread.

I was told to downgrade

[valid panther]

maybe to 3.10

I am testing the Persistent buttons, but when I create one and restart the bot, it throws the error

    bot.add_cog(ButtonPersistentView(bot))

[little cobalt]

Du you add the view to a add_view?

[valid panther]

I didn't understand your question, sorry

[little cobalt]

So, you have to add the view to a add_view at your bot

I usually add the view at the on_ready event

[steep cliff]

You’re required to add the view to your bot using bot.add_view(your_view) is what they’re saying

[valid panther]

can't it be done from the cog?

[steep cliff]

.rtfm add_view

[sly karma]

8 results

discord.Client.add_view
discord.AutoShardedClient.add_view
discord.ext.bridge.Bot.add_view
discord.Bot.add_view
discord.AutoShardedBot.add_view
discord.ext.commands.AutoShardedBot.add_view
discord.ext.bridge.AutoShardedBot.add_view
discord.ext.commands.Bot.add_view

[steep cliff]

As you can see, there’s no such function for cogs

[valid panther]

so how do I make it modular?

[lofty parcel]

commands.Cog.listener?

[steep cliff]

Basic events (on error, on ready etc) either go in the main file or listeners exist

[lofty parcel]

@commands.Cog.listener()
async def on_ready(self):
     self.bot.add_view(MyView())

[valid panther]

thank goodness for the listener

[valid panther]

thxx

[wooden turtle]

Do i understand this correctly?
i should be able to use modal_submit with a modal dialog and then i can use defer() to do my longer processing?

[lofty parcel]

It's called callback in pycord. And you use interaction.response.defer() to defer the interaction which gives you 15 minutes to send a follow up.

[wooden turtle]

aha, thank you

[hexed saddle]

im trying to create a bot and i keep getting this error: AttributeError: module 'discord' has no attribute 'Bot'

uninstall and reinstall py-cord

[hexed saddle]

lovely, thanks so much

[hexed saddle]

is there an easier way to unban people other than to just go through the ban list and unban them 1 by 1 with asyncio sleep so it doesnt get ratelimited

[obsidian stratus]

Thanks 🙏

[lofty parcel]

There's no bulk unbanning endpoint.

If you want to unban a specific user, discord.Guild has a method

[hexed saddle]

nah, just want to unban 4k people from a raid

[lofty parcel]

Then no, you have to iterate over the ban

[lapis pollen]

hey im trying to get the ctx users Display name tried
ctx.user.global_name
ctx.user.name

doesnt work
im using latest py-cord version

can someone help please

[lofty parcel]

Lastest version doesn't have pomelo.

Only the github version does.

[lapis dock]

and then use

.tag pomelo

[sly karma]

Before Pomelo- Versions 2.4.1 and before

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

After Pomelo- Versions py-cord-dev 2.5.0 and up

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

[valid panther]

Sorry guys, I'm looking at the operation of persistent buttons, I'm creating an option in which the user can set the max time of functionality of the button for example 1h-5h. Do you think it is a good idea to make a bot.loop.create_task(self.wait_timeout())

    def __init__(self, value_one:str=None, value_two: int= None, timeout_match: datetime=None, bot=None):
        super().__init__(timeout=None)
        self.value_one = value_one
        self.value_two = value_two
        self.timeout_match = timeout_match

        if self.timeout_match is not None:
            bot.loop.create_task(self.wait_timeout())

    async def wait_timeout(self):
        await asyncio.sleep(self.timeout_match)
        self.disable_all_items()
        self.stop()

[valid panther]

No date for version 2.5?

[lofty parcel]

Eh, im sure the release will be soon

[lofty parcel]

Wouldnt storing a datetime object and then comparing be more simple

[valid panther]

a dictionary with id_message : time?

[valid panther]

then I still have time to update the code, thanks for the information.

[fresh totem]

Hi.

async def shop_add_pack(ctx, cardpack_name: Option(str, "Name of Card Pack", choices=fetchCardSeries()), price: Option(int, "Price of Item in Shop", choices=[])):

How can I dynamically change the choices, fetchCardSeries() fetches a list of items but it gets executed at run-time and doesn't change when the command is ran again so the items stay the same even thought the list is updated.

How can I fetch the list when the command is run to get the updated list, I tried:

choices=lambda: fetchCardSeries()```

but no luck.

[little cobalt]

you cannot do that without resync the command or restart the bot

you have to use autocomplete for it

[fresh totem]

Could you elaborate on this please

[rugged lodge]

Here's the slash autocomplete example.

[little cobalt]

choices it like a hard coded list so you cannot really change it without a restart of the bot, while you can change the list with autocomplete

[lapis dock]

Just a note. Users can enter something not in the auto complete. So you will need to check that they selected a valid choice yourself.

[fresh totem]

Thank you, guys!

[young cove]

Hey all. I'm trying to make a select menu conditional based on a passed variable. Any help will be much appreciated.

 class skillForm(discord.ui.View):
    def __init__(self, characterName, prevInteraction, skillsType1):
        self.characterName = characterName
        self.prevInteraction = prevInteraction
        self.skillsType1 = skillsType1
        super().__init__(timeout=None)


    s1check = False
    s2check = False
    s3check = False
    highlightSkills1 = str
    highlightSkills2 = None
    highlightSkills3 = None


    if self.skillsType1 == True:
        @discord.ui.select(
                           placeholder="Primary Skill",
                           min_values=1,
                           options=craftingSkills
                           )  # a custom_id must be set
        async def skill_callback1(self, select, interaction):
            self.highlightSkills1 = select.values[0]
            self.s1check = True
            await interaction.response.defer()

Of course the if self.skillsType1 == True doesn't work because it's outside the def. I'm probably just being stupid here. Is there a better approach?

[lofty parcel]

You have to subclass the select

And add the options

[fresh totem]

Hey, how can we lockdown grouped commands to a specific server so those commands don't appear in other servers

class grindlistCommands(commands.Cog):
    def __init__(self, bot_: discord.Bot):
        self.bot = bot_

    grindlist = SlashCommandGroup("grindlist", "Grindlist Commands")

    @grindlist.command()
    async def view(self, ctx: discord.ApplicationContext):
        "View the grindlist"```

[lofty parcel]

SlashCommandGroup probably has a guild_ids param

[valid panther]

I am using the @commands.guild_only() tag in some of my commands and I can still run the command in the DM or just view it. Should I put something else in?

[valid panther]

grindlist = SlashCommandGroup("grindlist", "Grindlist Commands", guild_ids = ["id_01", "id_02"])

[lofty parcel]

The decorator is an internal check. It will not not register the command in dms

[valid panther]

and how should I do it so that the command does not appear in the private?

[lofty parcel]

You cant unless you register the command to specific guilds

[fast dust]

How use Slash Package here?

[little cobalt]

What is a slash package?

[fast dust]

to import slash cmds

[fast dust]

No Module Named 'discord_slash'

[little cobalt]

that is not py-cord

[fast dust]

server name?

[little cobalt]

idk

[lapis dock]

Py-cord has slash commands. It's just not discord_slash

[fast dust]

what then?

[lapis dock]

Take a look at our guide if you are just starting

.tag guide

[sly karma]

Official Pycord Guide: https://guide.pycord.dev/

[little cobalt]

And the user left...

[lapis dock]

they were not using Pycord anyways ¯_(ツ)_/¯

[valid panther]

commands.CommandOnCooldown and commands.errors.CommandOnCooldown is the same?

[plush thicket]

how do i get a reference message, if i use commands.slash_command?

[lofty parcel]

Should be ig

[lofty parcel]

Theres no reference message in slash commands

[maiden bloom]

Would sending a message to every guild (like an announcement) work or would the API not like it sending that many messages at once? Would it even work or would it take forever to actually finish running? Currently at 1,750 servers

[wraith mirage]

how do i make a new line with slash commands

[lofty parcel]

New line as in?

[lofty parcel]

Youd probably need to asyncio sleep a few secs

[shell radish]

i don't recommend doing it because iirc it can get your bot quarentined

[stray pasture]

[stray pasture]

but it would still be good to know if there is breaking changes

[azure cobalt]

Is Spotify classified as discord.ActivityType.listening?

[unborn cargo]

How to get bans count of a guild using discord.py?

[azure cobalt]

discord.py: len([entry async for entry in ctx.guild.bans])
Though I did not test this. ctx would be the application context.

pycord: len(await ctx.guild.bans().flatten())
I did test this one. ctx is once again the application context.

[unborn cargo]

Thanks!

[unborn cargo]

bans = ctx.guild.bans()
count = 0
async for ban_entry in bans:
count += 1

[lapis dock]

There is not supposed to be a breaking change. Can you ensure you have no other discord libraries installed. And if the issue persists create a big report.

[lapis dock]

Yes, but technically it is not the only thing that could be classified as listening.

[azure cobalt]

I figured it out, I now am using isinstance(activity, discord.Spotify)

Since Spotify is represented by the Spotify object instead of Activity

[lapis dock]

For future reference if you are using discord.py you should use there support server as it is not the same as Pycord. (As shown by alucard)

[unborn cargo]

Okay, Thanks and sorry.!

Does client.get_message(message_id) get data from the bot cache? May be pointless to use it with on_raw_message_delete if so.

[shell radish]

yes

[rotund quarry]

Ok this is a simple question, how can i get the value of username and print it using print()?

@bot.command(name="verify", description="Verify your account")
async def verify(ctx, username: discord.Option(str, "Put the exact in game username")): 
    username: discord.Option(discord.SlashCommandOptionType.string)

[little cobalt]

why do you have username two times?

[rotund quarry]

what do you mean

The internet say is correct

if you want you can delet one of them

if is not correct

[little cobalt]

two times discord.Option?

[rotund quarry]

I tought this is not a mistake but ok, i read wrong on internet ig

[azure cobalt]

Can the bot user cache be disabled?

[little cobalt]

So you would have to fetch anything?

[azure cobalt]

Yes, it is for a function of the bot that must get all of the users it shares guilds with

[sly ember]

if i change bot to client, the command works again, but the command which shows me all of my coins wont work then

[vestal folio]

how to get icon from the guild

[azure cobalt]

guild.icon

[vestal folio]

Ok

Thanks

    @to_do_group.command()
    async def get(self, ctx,
                  name:discord.Option(str, autocomplete=getAllToDoLists(ctx.user.id), description="The name for your to-do list.")):

I'm a bit stuck on how to structure the above. I have the function getAllToDoLists which basically gets the user's to-do lists from a database. However, how do I pull from that database with the user's id when I can't access it in the parameter?

I'm not sure how I should structure my code to achieve that

waait

I think I remember the autocomplete func having another parameter

yep that was it

it does have an interaction

AutocompleteContext

[valid panther]

I understand that this is not possible

[solar sonnet]

is there a workaround i can do to dynamically display layers in a world from an option the user selected?

[wooden turtle]

how do i use <t:{time.time() + 600}:R> in a discord bot?
description=f"Your token has been generated and expires in <t:{time.time() + 600}:R>"

[valid panther]

Example:

discord.utils.format_dt(datetime.now(), "F")```

https://docs.pycord.dev/en/stable/api/utils.html#discord.utils.format_dt

[wooden turtle]

thank you kind sir

[lofty parcel]

You have to use autocomplete, based on the past option using AutocompleteContext.options

[rugged lodge]

Here's the slash autocomplete example.

[minor crescent]

having issues with an error that has never come up in my 3+ months working on this bot

no clue what's causing it

[little cobalt]

What is your py-cord version?

[minor crescent]

latest i think

let me update

[minor crescent]

running latest

had no errors 2 days ago

just opened the file today and now it's full of warnings

fixed it through editing pylance's typecheck overrides

[waxen arrow]

I have a bot that regularly disconnects, and after it does, I see a log message I put into on_ready, but the other functions of the bot cease, and on discord the bot appears offline. Where might I look first to work out why this might be happening?

[minor crescent]

can you send the code of your bot

actually

are there any errors in your bot's console?

[waxen arrow]

No errors in the bots console. Code is here : https://github.com/markng/roll-call/blob/main/roll_call_bot.py

the "we have logged in as blah" message prints

[minor crescent]

does on_message function at all

[waxen arrow]

Until it reconnects, yes

Stuff ends up in the DB, and !last works

[valid cipher]

Hello. how can i check if the server has an active subscription?

[solar sonnet]

how can i handle multiple users running the same command at once? 9/10 times one user will recieve The application did not respond error and they still will get cd for command

[shell radish]

it's probably one of the following reasons:

1. something to do with the way your command was written
2. the bot's connection to the internet/cloudflare
3. Discord was just bad

[lofty parcel]

It's documented as SKU(s) under the docs. But not quite sure how you'd get it for a guild, I don't see a method or attribute unless it's not documented.

[valid cipher]

i can only find "primary_sku_id" https://docs.pycord.dev/en/stable/api/application_info.html#discord.AppInfo.primary_sku_id
but thats for games.

i did manage to find this pr wich i think is what i want. https://github.com/Pycord-Development/pycord/pull/2273/files
but i have no idea how to use it

[lofty parcel]

You might need 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

[valid cipher]

not sure if it worked, but "fetch_entitlements" now gave me another error.
ill play around a bit.
thank you for the help

jup. worked. now i only have to understand how to actually implement it without any documentation...

documentation has also a master branch. so that should work for me

[delicate scroll]

Is it possible to check for a users role outside of a command event, specifically I have an on message event that will send the message off to an ai for a response but I want to limit who is actually able to speak to the ai / have their messages read by it

All I keep finding results on is checking roles for commands but that doesn't really work for what I've got cooking

[lofty parcel]

The message object has an author attribute that returns a discord.Member object (if the message is in a guild)

[delicate scroll]

Right, and I can get console to print out a users roles but for whatever reason if I try to do a "if 'Rolename' in message.author.roles" it doesn't find anything, idk what I'm doing wrong lmao it's late

[lofty parcel]

Because message.author.roles is a list of discord.Role objects, not strings

You have to get the role

.rtfm get_role

[sly karma]

2 results

discord.Guild.get_role
discord.Member.get_role

[delicate scroll]

i hate that theres a difference, i didnt know about the get role section, its fixed now ty

[lofty parcel]

Difference of what? It's always been like that.

[delicate scroll]

No i know i just mean like when I'm printing stuff out to console and something looks like itll work one way but doesn't

[lofty parcel]

Because most objects have a __str__ which usually returns the name.

[rich jolt]

Hi
I'm running version pycord 0.1.1 (don't ask..)
And now getting the error
KeyError: <StickerFormatType.unknown_4: 4> when starting the bot.
I assume it's due to a breaking change and I need 2 update? Is there a version that I can update to to fix this without having to work on any breaking changes/adjust code? I only have mobile rn 😅

[limber terrace]

Updates are always recommended during security and compatibility changes

so yes, run the update

[cunning stirrup]

hey guys i have a stupid question is it possible for a bot to see a users bio or like description ?

[unkempt cipher]

no, discord doesn't want bots to read that
private info and stuff

[cunning stirrup]

okey thx

[little cobalt]

pycord is not the same at py-cord

[azure cobalt]

pypi pycord is for video decode

[little cobalt]

dont use requests for your bots

[azure cobalt]

What? For SLAG?

[little cobalt]

ye

[azure cobalt]

That's only to get data from micron.com

[little cobalt]

?tag requests

[limber wagon]

Why you should not use the requests library for your bot
requests is a popular HTTP library for Python. It is however not a good option for Discord bots, since it is not async and blocking.

This essentially means that your bot will not be able to execute any code at all while a request is happening. Since requests usually take a few seconds to complete, this can have a detrimental effect on your bot's performance. E.g if a user executes a command that performs a request taking 5 seconds to complete, no one else will be able to use your bot for those 5 seconds.

Please look at using a HTTP library that has async support, such as aiohttp or httpx

[azure cobalt]

oh, ok

thanks

[little cobalt]

np ^^

[round heart]

It would do so much for moderation, though. Too many people with "🟣 Admin" in their bio

[lapis dock]

Please show all of your dependencies (pip list)

[lapis dock]

Can't auto mod do this? That way only discord sees it but you can still have custom rules

[round heart]

Does automod work on bios? I didn’t see that option but it’s been a while since I’ve looked

[azure cobalt]

Most people shouldn't fall for that

But this is Discord...

[round heart]

Our server attracts a lot of Discord newbies in general.

[round heart]

After looking, automod only looks at usernames, not bios.

[azure cobalt]

I don't think any bot can read the About Me

[round heart]

Correct, that's the discussion, Wolfy asked if Discord's built-in AutoMod could, but it cannot.

So there are no available protections for users being duped by fake role names in scammer bios.

[azure cobalt]

Unless someone wants to check all of the bios

[round heart]

Yeah, we do occasionally. But that's a shitty mod experience.
Like this should never be able to happen. People brand new to Discord can't always tell that's falsified, especially through DM.

[azure cobalt]

Discord should have that in the API. If users can see it, bots should be able to see it.

[lofty hedge]

Are you deferring the command that could help

[solar sonnet]

No I am sending a non deferred, Im now looking into it, that looks like it could solve the issue

[lofty hedge]

Await ctx.defer()

[solar sonnet]

Oh wait, my bad, I am deferring it and it throws that error

[lapis dock]

My bad, it might have been planned but not released, or I'm just completely wrong 1

[shell radish]

i thought you could access that info with oauth2

[solar sonnet]

i remember being in a server which had access to check your current activity and if it was a specific one you'd get an auto ban

[lofty hedge]

are u running any tasks or have a database thats blocking
?

[azure cobalt]

thats from Intents.presences

unrelated to bios and pronouns

[round heart]

Possibly, but that's a lot of work (especially since pycord doesn't work with oauth2 (at least easily))

[azure cobalt]

Is it possible to get connections from a user profile, such as eBay and Xbox?

[shell radish]

same thing with oauth2

except this one is a confident yes

[tidal estuary]

I had all my slash commands disappear, restarted the bot a million times, re-invited it, still only some of them are showing up yet all cogs showing as loaded during startup. Any suggestions or troubleshooting ideas? I didn't change anything which is odd, but the commands have been out all day.

[sterile bobcat]

I am making a Game that involves clicking a button, the game has teams and once a team has clicked a button they are not allowed to press the button again. The game itself is contained in a Cog and I want the Cog to be informed about who pressed the button, how can I do that?

        def __init__ (self, question: JeopardyQuestion, voice: discord.StageChannel):

            """
            super().__init__(timeout=None)
            self.question = question

Here is where I want the Button to Update:

        if uuid in self.question_post.keys():

                title="🌟QUESTION🌟",
                description= "Here is the question again! \n" ,
                color=discord.Color.random()  
            )
            question = QuestionPost(question_data, self.stage)
            await self.question_post[uuid].edit(embed=embed, view=question)

[lofty parcel]

You could probably use a bot var

[shell radish]

you actually can't because multiple instances of questions or whatever would break it unless each question can be uniquely identified from another (such as using an ID)

[lofty parcel]

I assumed that would be obvious

[shell radish]

it's not

[sterile bobcat]

Is it wise to Pass the Cog itself and then Updating the required in the Cog itself?

[sand reef]

I have modals set up in separate modules that get imported to my main script. I want to create a new channel with the command and then send the interaction response to that channel, but I'm struggling to find out the proper flow for this. Any advice?

[lofty parcel]

You can't. Interaction responses are sent in the same channel they got originally called.

[sand reef]

Understood. Is there a way to return the data provided in the interaction instead, and then construct my own response?

[lofty parcel]

What are you trying to do?

[sand reef]

I'm creating a bot that integrates with my business panel and allows users to submit tickets via interaction.

I have other bots that use modals but they, as you said, send reponses to the same channel and that works for those.

[lofty parcel]

You could just send an ephemeral response.

And then send whatever data the user submitted with channel.send

[sand reef]

Well, the purpose of the creation of the new channel would be that it would send and receive messages for the ticketing system in that channel.

That logic is pretty easy to do since it just uses API, but that initial interaction is where I'm struggling.

[stray pasture]

I am trying to create a Option in a slash command with a Enum. I am not sure why it is not working:

    @discord.option(
        "language",
        description="The language of the output",
        default=Language.MANDARIN,
        type=Language
    )
    @slash_command(guild_ids=guildIds, name="membership", description="Show you current membership")
    async def show_membership(self, ctx: ApplicationContext, language: Language):
        await self._show_timed_role_of_member(ctx, ctx.author, False)

i get the error:

[lofty parcel]

What's the flow exactly?

[stray pasture]

class Language(Enum):
    ENGLISH = 1
    MANDARIN = 2

[sand reef]

User submits interaction. Simple enough.

The data from the interaction, which includes an account email and the query itself, is sent through my panel's API to the ticketing system, which creates a new ticket.

A new channel is created for the user, and the information they submitted from the ticket is the first message from the bot.

Any responses to the channel by the user or staff member are collected by the bot, embedded, and added to the ticket on the ticketing system.

The only thing I really am struggling with is returning the data from the modal, since I've only ever used modals to return ephemeral messages or otherwise in the same channel it is sent in.

[lofty parcel]

So the only issue is just sending the data to the channel

Guild.create_text_channel returns the created channel

You use that returned object to send whatever info you want

[sand reef]

No, the issue is accessing the data submitted from the modal.

[rugged lodge]

Here's the modal dialogs example.

[lofty parcel]

You can see there how you access the data.

[sand reef]

I suck at explaining my question, I'm sorry. So pulling from the example, is there a way to return the value of InputText to the modal_message command so that it can be used away from the modal class?

Keeping in mind my modals are placed in a separate module

[cloud bloom]

can you have async innit

[outer niche]

I feel like there is a joke to be made using the spelling error but I can't find it

[digital zenith]

Heyo! Was just wondering what I need to do to get it to recognise/find the discord module.

Code

``

name = name or ctx.author.name
await ctx.respond(f"Hello {name}!")

@bot.user_command(name="Say Hello")
async def hi(ctx, user):
await ctx.respond(f"{ctx.author.mention} says hello to {user.name}!")

bot.run(config.TOKEN)
``

My error:

🙂

[outer niche]

Have you installed it?
pip install py-cord in your terminal

[digital zenith]

yeah

Am I meant to have the discord/discord.py module installed?

I tried with them and it didnt work

[digital zenith]

so yeah

[digital zenith]

Anything else I should try?

[floral ice]

how can i add more than 25 choices for slash command?

[hallow copper]

uninstall discord.py

install py-cord

[digital zenith]

oki

[hallow copper]

then you should be able to import it

[floral ice]

is it possible?

[hallow copper]

that’s a great question

[digital zenith]

same error

😦

[hallow copper]

did you break something?

[digital zenith]

dont think so

xD

[hallow copper]

hmm

[digital zenith]

i just wanted to use something other than nextcord with a simpilar api like this

[hallow copper]

yis this one way better

[digital zenith]

?

[hallow copper]

pycord better

[digital zenith]

ye lol

[hallow copper]

we have her

[digital zenith]

oo

[hallow copper]

oki good night

[digital zenith]

gn

[little cobalt]

With autocomplete

Else the limit is 25

[tepid coyote]

is there any reason why interaction.resonse.send_message doesn't show as a function in my ide (pycharm) the resonse doesn't show that send_message id a fnction that is available to it

[shell radish]

maybe because you misspelled “response”?

also that’s not how python intellisense works

[tepid coyote]

thats just me miss typing here, its definetly spelt correctly, like it works but intelij just doesnt recogniise it

[shell radish]

iirc, they only go one layer deep

so it would autocomplete interaction.response

but not response’s attrs

[tepid coyote]

okie

just was a bit wierd

[modern cedar]

hi

[warm jay]

I'm getting a discord.errors.ApplicationCommandInvokeError: Application Command raised an exception: Forbidden: 403 Forbidden (error code: 50013): Missing Permissions

Why is that

What permission does it need

[edgy nest]

if it knows the type it should (but it doesn't for some reason)

[shell radish]

you are probably trying to register a command in a guild your bot is not in

[modern cedar]

ok I fixed my prpeviois error

but Now a small error

message = await ctx.respond(embed=embed, file=(discord.File(img_bytesio, filename="riddle_image.png")))

correct_answer_given = False

def check(answer_msg):
 print(f"Received message: {answer_msg.content}")
 print(f"Reference message ID: {answer_msg.reference.message_id}")
 print(f"Expected message ID: {message.id}")
 return (
    answer_msg.author != bot.user
    and answer_msg.reference
    and answer_msg.reference.message_id == message.id
)

[warm jay]

OOOOOOOOOOHHHHHHHHHHH WAIT

[modern cedar]

The reference message Id is not being equal to actuall message id

[warm jay]

That was the issue

[shell radish]

respond returns an interaction, not a message

[modern cedar]

So how I get the Id of the embed I sent?

through respond

When I use use answer_msg.reference.message_id
It gives the correct value

but that's for replies

I need it beforehand to check

it

[shell radish]

that should just be await ctx.interaction.original_response()

[modern cedar]

wdym

[shell radish]

that is how you would get the message associated with the message you responded with

[modern cedar]

yeah but I need to check it right

basically the bot will only those answers that are replied to the riddle embed

[shell radish]

I understand

[modern cedar]

yeah

[shell radish]

you know how to get a message's ID right

[modern cedar]

yes

[shell radish]

so you can check it

[modern cedar]

that's what I am doing

in this code

[shell radish]

.

[shell radish]

.

interactions are not messages

so the ID is different

[modern cedar]

So how should I apply this?

that's what I am asking

[shell radish]

if await ctx.interaction.original_response() returns a message, what does that mean

[modern cedar]

message = await ctx.interaction(embed=embed, file=(discord.File(img_bytesio, filename="riddle_image.png")))

[modern cedar]

so I change it to this?

[shell radish]

no

[modern cedar]

I see

[shell radish]

you would respond as usual, without the message assignment. Then, use await ctx.interaction.original_response() to store the message object

[modern cedar]

you are saying that I get the refrence from interaction itself?

instead of the message

[shell radish]

the reference message stays the same

[modern cedar]

await ctx.respond(embed=embed, file=(discord.File(img_bytesio, filename="riddle_image.png")))
message = await ctx.interaction.original_response()

[modern cedar]

yeah but I would need the id of the message for my sent interaction

[shell radish]

you have a message object

[modern cedar]

yeha but it stores the id of the interaction

[shell radish]

no, this message is a Message object

[modern cedar]

oh ok

So in the end what do I do

in the code

[shell radish]

the only thing you need the change is outside the function

[modern cedar]

ok I don't understand shit

I just want the message id of the interaction instead of the intereaction id
So that the reference would be equal to it.

message = await ctx.respond(embed=embed, file=(discord.File(img_bytesio, filename="riddle_image.png")))


    correct_answer_given = False

    def check(answer_msg):
     print(f"Received message: {answer_msg.content}")
     print(f"Reference message ID: {answer_msg.reference.message_id}")
     print(f"Expected message ID: {message.id}")
     return (
        answer_msg.author != bot.user
        and answer_msg.reference
        and answer_msg.reference.message_id == message.id
    )

    try:
        answer_msg = await bot.wait_for('message', check=check, timeout=30.0)```

[shell radish]

+ await ctx.respond(embed=embed, file=(discord.File(img_bytesio, filename="riddle_image.png")))
+ message = await ctx.interaction.original_response()
- message = await ctx.respond(embed=embed, file=(discord.File(img_bytesio, filename="riddle_image.png")))

these are quite literally all the changes you need in your code

[modern cedar]

this?

[shell radish]

yes

[modern cedar]

so the I just need to do message.id

and I will get it

ok

[shell radish]

do you understand OOP lol

[modern cedar]

i am a machine learning engineer

english is not just my mother tongue

i am making a discord bot first time

[shell radish]

do you understanding object-oriented programming

[modern cedar]

yes

i know you are talking about instance variable of the message class

of which the message object is created

[shell radish]

ok

[modern cedar]

finally worked

thanks @shell radish

[shell radish]

yw

[modern cedar]

im follow you on github in return

[cloud bloom]

how does one create a followup response for a modal?

Docs say Interaction.response.followup has:

Returns the followup webhook for followup interactions.
But I have no idea what that extends from

[lofty parcel]

interaction.response.followup.send?

[cloud bloom]

tried that

    await interaction.followup.send_modal(AddItemModal(message=self.view.message, title=self.title))
          ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
AttributeError: 'Webhook' object has no attribute 'send_modal'

wait...

OH

[lofty parcel]

Followups can't send modals

[cloud bloom]

oh fr?

why

[lofty parcel]

Ask discord

[cloud bloom]

what should I do instead

[lofty parcel]

Don't defer.

[cloud bloom]

but if I'm doing database edits

that might take a while

[lofty parcel]

Send a button then that opens the modal

[cloud bloom]

How would i get Py-cord 2.5 so the pomelo works properly? (Considering py-cord-dev doesn't work anymore)

Nevermind (git+https://github.com/Pycord-Development/pycord)

[grim estuary]

Hello! How I can add buttons when is View initialized? (I can't figure out how to bind a callback function to a button)

class ViewClass(View):
    def __init__(self, ...):
        super().__init__(timeout=...)
        self.add_item(... # here)

I take it I should create a subclass for the buttons? I just don't see any other way out

class ButtonClass(Button):
    def __init__(self, ...):
        super().__init__(...)

    def callback(self, button: Button, interaction: Interaction):
        ...

[rugged lodge]

Here's the confirm example.

[lofty parcel]

.

[lapis dock]

Button callback has to be set after button creation
mybutton.callback = mycallback

[upper drift]

is it necessary to make a select class? cant we just declare it without it

I need examples

it depends on your implementation

Didn’t they remove development

In some updates on this server

[round heart]

What do you mean? The github URL is still https://github.com/Pycord-Development/pycord

[lofty hedge]

Oh I misread I dunno

[round heart]

Updated setuptools and pip itself and it magically worked. Friggin weird.

Hiya,

So when trying to run my bot I get this error:

No

Uninstall it and py-cord and only reinstall py-cord

[red mist]

disnake is also from discord.py?

[lofty parcel]

No, its a different library

[autumn gust]

okay, I may need some guidance here:

I want to make a bot that works similar to an announcement channel w/ publishing, right?

the issue is, how do I copy the message, word for word and with an attachement?

the attachement will always be a .png

and it will always contain one

[fresh totem]

Thank you!

[noble flax]

Is it possible to create a modal or something similar off the back of a slash command from a user for them to select a datetime from a dropdown?

[lofty parcel]

Modals can't have dropdowns.

[noble flax]

Forgive my ignorance, what options are there?

[lofty parcel]

Only text inputs.

[noble flax]

I'm thinking of the bot messaging a user and them being able to choose the date-time from a dropdown.

So its free-type options for the user only?

[lofty parcel]

Yes.

[noble flax]

No worries - thanks for your help.

[lofty parcel]

You could just send a normal select menu.

Instead of a modal.

[opal hemlock]

i have a command /trivia with parameter topic: which is important but is it possible to have a optional parameter like language: where if user doesn't type anything it will just be handled by code? Or something like that

[shell radish]

yes

[rugged lodge]

Here's the slash options example.

[opal hemlock]

aha

[finite plover]

How to sync slash commands?

[little cobalt]

with sync_commands

but Im not sure if it works to 100%

[finite plover]

I will try it

Thx

[lethal loom]

Have the AutoComplet a limit

[little cobalt]

No not really

[lethal loom]

okay, but why i dont see the 32 from this list

[little cobalt]

discord only shows 25 of it

the other ones have you to type to see them

that is how autocomplete also works at your Phone

[hard kettle]

This is in an async def function(): its saying key word url

 view = discord.ui.Button(label = "CLAIM", url = "https://gg.gg")
 await ctx.respond(embed = embed, view = view)

ahh how to add slash command in cog?

it doesn't work

[rugged lodge]

Here's the slash cog example.

how do i stop defer answer thing if it sent alr sent embed

nvm

got it

im dumb

[finite plover]

thx

[lethal loom]

Hi, how can react when a user switch the side from a paginator

[lofty parcel]

You need a view. You cant pass the button to the view kwarg

view = discord.ui.View()
view.add_item(discord.ui.Button())

[lofty parcel]

Didn't you get an answer to this in a thread

[lethal loom]

yeah but idk how can i work with thios

[lofty parcel]

You'd subclass the paginator and override the method

Do your stuff, then call the super() method to not lose what the method was originally doing

[lunar isle]

lol nvm

i got the function defined wrong

[lofty parcel]

What's image

My guess is it was supposed to be SlashCommandGroup

yes

i forgot to change the function name

[graceful swift]

Hi. I have a quick question.

If I create a task loop, specifying it's looping interval times in a variable
@tasks.loop(seconds=delay_seconds)

Can I update the variable time to update the loop accordingly, or I need to stop the loop and start it again to make the change take affect?

[hard kettle]

Try it and see

[graceful swift]

Very useful answer. Thanks.

Answer was loop.change_interval method if anyone else have the same question.

[maiden bloom]

Can I populate a command option choice with a guild's current automod rules?

[rugged lodge]

Here's the slash autocomplete example.

[shell radish]

yes

[finite plover]

why i add new slash command (now there are 8) but it doesn't show up?

[lofty parcel]

That depends on many things. You haven't showed any code.

[finite plover]

what can i show? slash command doesn't show up before remove one

[lofty parcel]

Comment out the command. Run your both. Remove the comment. Run again.

[finite plover]

Okay i will try it later

[maiden bloom]

Perfect, thanks. I got it setup

[high pilot]

can the bot wait for message inside a button callback?

it doesnt seem to so when i am doing it

    async def button_callback1(self, button, interaction):
        
        button.disabled = True
        msg = await bot.wait_for("message", timeout = None)

[deft bronze]

Im getting a certificates error when i try to launch my bot

idk why

If you're getting the [SSL: CERTIFICATE_VERIFY_FAILED] certificate verify failed: certificate has expired (_ssl.c:1108) error on a Windows host do the following:

actually might not be the same thing

[round heart]

Hey, the docs state that discord.Member has a history() method. Can I actually get a user's message history without having to provide a channel context?

(It's weird because it's https://docs.pycord.dev/en/stable/api/models.html#discord.Member.history but the example still references a channel)

[round heart]

Is there still no way of getting a member's chat history without iterating through every channel?

[azure cobalt]

Yes, by the looks of it. My bot iterates through all guilds and channels.

Then separates that data into each database for each user

[nimble pilot]

@commands.Cog.listener()
   async def on_button_click(self, interaction: discord.Interaction):``` is there such an event in pycord?

[little cobalt]

yes

its on_interaction

but that triggert all the interaction stuff so you have to filter it

[nimble pilot]

How do I determine what type of interaction is button click ?

[round heart]

It’s completely dumb. I want to be able to get the messages of someone when they’re banned (for audit purposes) but iterating over every single channel is so wasteful. 😩

[nimble pilot]

how to handle on modal submit event?

[valid panther]

I'm making a view to return if it has interacted, i.e. an on_click_button:

# View
class ConfirmView(discord.ui.View):

    def __init__(self):
        super().__init__(timeout=None)
        self.is_confirmed = False

    @discord.ui.button(label="Confirm", style=discord.ButtonStyle.green, emoji=f"{Emojis.green_tick.value}")
    async def confirm(self, button: discord.ui.Button, interaction: discord.Interaction):

        self.is_confirmed = True

        await interaction.response.edit_message(
            content=f"{Emojis.pensil_edit.value} Cleaning {interaction.user.mention}...",
                                                view=None,
                                                embed=None)

# command /example
    async def example():
        #--
        view = ConfirmView()
        await ctx.respond(embed=embed, view=view, ephemeral=True, delete_after=120)
        await view.wait()
        #--
        if view.is_confirmed:
          print("On click")

This should be correct?

[lofty parcel]

No. View.wait waits for a timeout or a manual stop

[valid panther]

and how should I do it?

[lofty parcel]

You have to add self.stop() to your button callback. At the end.

[finite plover]

Thx bro

[valid panther]

thxx

[azure cobalt]

Yeah, it is. In my case I am logging all of the messages.

[lethal loom]

Hi, how can i add to my slashcommandgroup a nother group like test add <command>

[lofty parcel]

You can't

[minor crescent]

is there an easy way to run a function at the start of every hour

[little cobalt]

you mean instead of a task?

[minor crescent]

yeah

cause afaik tasks only use relative time (seconds from x) instead of set times

[shell radish]

they can run at set times

[round heart]

You can have two levels of groups. https://guide.pycord.dev/interactions/application-commands/slash-commands#sub-groups

[rugged lodge]

Here's the background task example.

[round heart]

I still like aiocron a bit more than internal tasks.

[shell radish]

yeah, this

[minor crescent]

oh thanks

[round heart]

Only downside to aiocron is that you can't use their decorators with Cogs (or any class), so you have to define and start them from __init__ (or a method called from init)

[round heart]

re: message deletion, when are messages "bulk deleted"? Does that happen when you ban a user and opt to remove all messages from 'x' time?

[shell radish]

those are two different api requests

banning has an option to remove messages

but bulk deleting is its own separate thing

[round heart]

Who can bulk delete? I've definitely never seen a UI interface for it

[shell radish]

commands like purge

it’s an api thing

[obsidian stratus]

Quick question, does the library offer some way to clear cache or refresh the bot? My bot reaches upto 4 gb ram when it’s idle is only 200mb and is in 25 servers only (it’s just a basic level bot)

[round heart]

But out of curiosity on this point, do you know what Discord uses when you Ban + Delete? Are several on_message_delete events fired, then?

[shell radish]

¯_(ツ)_/¯

[obsidian stratus]

I think it’s the buttons in rank command response which cause it, at least noticed this happen after deploying buttons to rank command
I make the view timeout after 600 seconds

[shell radish]

what are you storing

[obsidian stratus]

I’m using a PostgreSQL database to store server id; user id; xp

Pretty basic, i feel it’s the buttons which act up, any example gist code link to make memory optimised buttons?

[shell radish]

what intents do you have enabled

[obsidian stratus]

It’s the level roles button, servers can customise this upto 3 buttons (my bot is being used in big servers tho like 99k members)

[obsidian stratus]

discord.Intents.default()

Pretty sure I have overwritten it in the next line to enable members intent and presences intent

[shell radish]

yeah members intent is why you have such a high memory usage then

[obsidian stratus]

Oh I see, thanks for lmk

[shell radish]

the buttons are negligible in comparison

[obsidian stratus]

If I turn it off, will it affect the bot’s ability to sense messages to add xp

[obsidian stratus]

Oh

[shell radish]

i don’t know how your system works

[round heart]

Members? Probably not, if it has messages.

[obsidian stratus]

Sorry about that; i better try it than ask, thank you so much 🙏

[azure cobalt]

Is there a way to run a function at a specific time every day?

[shell radish]

#1132206148309749830 message

[azure cobalt]

Oh, it is also in the docs, I am blind

[supple wraith]

i need help im trying to attach a callback to an existing button everytime the bot is started but its not doing anything

async def suggestion_callback():
    print("Works")

@bot.event
async def on_ready():
    print("Ready!")

    channel = bot.get_channel(1206445575759724619)
    message = await channel.fetch_message(1208606430924636221)
    view = discord.ui.View.from_message(message)
    view.children[0].callback = suggestion_callback

the message referred to does have a valid button view

[stray pasture]

does async for ... in audit_logs retrieves all the entries at first, or does it fetch them as needed ?

[stray pasture]

Also the oldest_first options does not seems to be working. It return the newest_first

In the docs it says oldest_first (bool) – If set to True, return entries in oldest->newest order. Defaults to True if after is specified, otherwise False.

[stray pasture]

Fixed it, what tests do you need to run to make PR ?

[lofty parcel]

What the hell is that.

Use persistent views if you want callbacks to persist

[rugged lodge]

Here's the persistent example.

[supple wraith]

nevermind it was just bot.add_view(MyView())

[round heart]

...weird, Discord doesn't seem to fire any event when deleting messages during ban?

nm, it was being weird. Sometimes it sends bulk, sometimes not.

Is there a way to determine whether a Member is banned in the current guild/server? Doesn't seem like it, but asking in case it's buried somewhere I'm not looking.

[round heart]

Need some brainstorming assistance -- So ban and message deletion are separate events, and ban reasoning is even more separate, being in the Audit Log. I always want to alert (to a channel) when a user has been banned, but I'd also like to get the last message or two that was deleted, if that option was selected.

My current ban event hook attempts to grab the Audit Log entry and display that in the alert. My new hook sets the user id in an internal dict so that on_message_delete/on_bulk_message_delete can be matched to a ban event.

So what might be a good code path to include that in such an alert, if available, knowing that there may be times a user is banned but no message delete event would be fired.

Ban Event -> Catch Deleted Message(s) via Event -> Fetch Reason -> Display completed alert
Ban Event -> No Assoc Delete Event -> Still Fetch Reason -> Display completed alert

[deft bronze]

If i need to wait an hour after a command to make the bot send a message

should i asyncio.sleep or use other thing

[lofty parcel]

Asyncio.sleep

[little cobalt]

its got a limit

[lofty parcel]

Is the limit that small?

[little cobalt]

Wasn't it like 15 minutes?

[lofty parcel]

I sleep 20 minutes in a callback and it works.

[little cobalt]

oh ok?

[lofty parcel]

Docs don't mention any limit.

https://docs.python.org/3/library/asyncio-task.html#asyncio.sleep

[azure cobalt]

Is it possible to pass parameters to a Cog?

[shell radish]

yes

[azure cobalt]

Do I just add a non-keyword argument to load_extension?

How do I pass the parameters?

[shell radish]

i can't find a reason why would need to do that tho

[azure cobalt]

Actually an extension (I often get confused on the two). It is for running something before all of the cogs are loaded in setup(client) if a certain command line flag/argument is present.

[shell radish]

so how would checking that inside the cog help

[azure cobalt]

I forgot I could actually use sys.argv within an extension

[errant trout]

you're thinking of the interaction response limit after being deferred

[little cobalt]

No

I mean asyncio.sleep

[errant trout]

sleep doesn't necessarily have a limit, it could just be considered unreliable the longer you sleep

[round heart]

I feel attacked

[errant trout]

I mean, it's fine to use it if it works for you

I just personally opt for tasks if I'm waiting for anything beyond a few minutes

[round heart]

Just shitposting on the being “considered unreliable the longer you sleep”

[errant trout]

Ah LOL

[stray pasture]

is there a way to fetch audits logs without discord.audit_logs ? The current implementation seems broken

it fetches multiple times the same logs

[stray pasture]

i found a solution for it. You just need to change in the after strategy self.after = Object(id=int(entries[0]["id"])) to self.after = Object(id=int(entries[-1]["id"])) . Because when using after, list is reversed and appears in ascending order (older entries first). So you want the after to be the newest entry (the last one). Also removed the oldest_first options.

this is my cog, to move people to a different channel when their name starts with "@"
if i join the channel with a "@" it moves me but if i then remove the "@" and join the channel again it still moves me

does anybody know why?

[sage tendon]

print both of the variables and see what they actually contain, then you can troubleshoot with that info

most probably one of those variables prefixes an @ like @username

btw, else: return can be completely removed

[grim estuary]

Hello! What does py-cord documentation version v0.1 mean? Is this the master?

[sage tendon]

context?

[shell radish]

it’s a bug

[grim estuary]

Master version has file READ_ME, at the bottom of it is a link to the documentation v0.1. I tried to find documentation for this version

[frail ocean]

Can someone explain me how i use the on message cooldown in a cog

[lapis dock]

yes this is master, it is just a visual bug. You can change your version at the bottom of the sidebar if needed

[shell radish]

events don’t have cooldowns

[frail ocean]

https://github.com/Pycord-Development/pycord/blob/master/examples/cooldown.py ?

[shell radish]

events don’t have cooldowns

[minor crescent]

is there a way to pass variables to extensions, or is there an on_load or smth for cogs? i need to establish a database connection when I load my cogs

[shell radish]

pass it through the bot object

[sage tendon]

i already replied to you

[rotund quarry]

oh

[azure cobalt]

how are subcommands like this made?

[rugged lodge]

Here's the slash groups example.

[loud kayak]

print your id variable and see what it is. if it's none, then it's none. if it is an id and get_channel is returning none, then the bot doesn't have access to the channel. also make sure the id is an integer, not a string.

please provide code or else i cannot help you.

[shell radish]

update your version of pycord

[ivory beacon]

okh let me try this

[ivory beacon]

Requirement already satisfied: py-cord in /data/data/com.termux/files/usr/lib/python3.11/site-packages (2.4.1)

[shell radish]

did you do this

[ivory beacon]

async def send_message(channel_id,role_id,embed):
   print(channel_id)
   print(type(channel_id))
   channel = bot.get_channel(channel_id)
   print(channel)
   await channel.send(f'<@&{role_id}>',embed=embed,username="Global Boost Detector")

[lofty hedge]

how do you do the gif avatar

?tag gif_avatar

[limber wagon]

How to upload an animated avatar for your bot

To use and upload an animated avatar you can run the following snippet as standalone script:

import discord
import asyncio

# Intents to enable certain events
intents = discord.Intents.all()

# Create a Discord client instance with intents
client = discord.Client(intents=intents)

# Event to handle bot's initialization
@client.event
async def on_ready():
    print('Logged in as {0.user}'.format(client))

    # Upload animated avatar
    try:
        with open('yourpicture.gif', 'rb') as avatar:
            await client.user.edit(avatar=avatar.read())
        print('Animated avatar uploaded successfully!')
    except Exception as e:
        print('Failed to upload animated avatar:', e)

# Run the bot
client.run("YOUR_TOKEN")

That should be all, have fun!

[ivory beacon]

but the fun fact is i run the code by eval and it's working 🙂
idk whyyy

print(bot.get_channel(1101552767404888084))

this is working in on_message()
but not working in other function

[loud kayak]

send your full code, even where you are using the function. everything related to the issue. without this i cannot help you.

run pip freeze in your terminal as well and send the output.

[ivory beacon]

async def xx():
   print(bot.get_channel(1101552767404888084))

this function printing the channel name if i use in on_message() or in slash command but not working(returning None) in send_message() function

[loud kayak]

run pip freeze in your terminal and send the output here

[ivory beacon]

kindly check your dm
it's too long lmao XD

[loud kayak]

you can just send it here

as a .txt file

[ivory beacon]

ok wait

[ivory beacon]

@loud kayak

[loud kayak]

if you're just using pycord for your project, you don't need that many packages.

do you have git installed on your machine? @ivory beacon

[ivory beacon]

yeap

[loud kayak]

.install

[sly karma]

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

[loud kayak]

run the last one to install from the source

probably has a fix to that

[ivory beacon]

ok let me check

[ivory beacon]

kindly read this:)

[loud kayak]

i saw

[shell radish]

use ```py
channel = bot.get_partial_messageable(id)
await channel.send(...)

[ivory beacon]

but working in other function like on_message() 😪

[shell radish]

where are you calling this function

[loud kayak]

like i asked, but won't give the code

[ivory beacon]

wait

[shell radish]

.

[loud kayak]

no, where are you calling that function

[ivory beacon]

let me push to git

[whole needle]

how do i make it in my command have

/signup sendemail [true or false]

[rugged lodge]

Here's the slash options example.

Here's the slash groups example.

[ivory beacon]

check dm
i sent you git link

[loud kayak]

can't you just send it here?

[ivory beacon]

i hope you can read my code 🙂💔

[loud kayak]

if you can't answer my question, i can't help you. where are you using that function

im not gonna search for the function in your code.

[ivory beacon]

global_boost_detect.py

180 Number Line

[loud kayak]

just send the code here

its not that hard

[ivory beacon]

as file ?

[loud kayak]

no, where you are using the function.

[shell radish]

it's literally 15 functions calling each other

[loud kayak]

[ivory beacon]

🙂💔

[loud kayak]

bad practices

[ivory beacon]

i never tried how to make discord bot:)

[shell radish]

the issue is that you are passing around a stale bot object

[ivory beacon]

how can i fix it:)

didn't working in my function 🙂💔

[loud kayak]

the channel id has to be wrong

[shell radish]

no that's not the issue

[ivory beacon]

working in eval

with same id

[loud kayak]

doesn't make sense for it to not work in a function but to work in an eval command

[shell radish]

no i literally just told them why it doesn't

[shell radish]

don't import it. Pass it through the function.

[loud kayak]

^

[ivory beacon]

okhhh

[shell radish]

you have no idea what i meant by it being "stale"

[loud kayak]

the object wasn't being updated, since it was being imported

[shell radish]

yeah and that should be obvious because the API calls weren't going through

[upbeat sluice]

👋 im trying to attach the following image onto an embed, but it doesnt work: https://en.numista.com/catalogue/photos/allemagne/6058b1ae922851.03589029-original.jpg

I just noticed however that the image wont load in discord

however if you actually go to the image it does load

so, im quite confused as to what is going on here?

is there something about this image that just doesnt make it work?

[atomic fern]

does Paginator has built-in features for adding select menu like this? or i need to create manually the menus selector? I'm not referring to the page navigator button

[shell radish]

i created that menu. it was manual

[atomic fern]

what i mean is, the menu has value inside the embeds

ok

[atomic fern]

how do i make pagjnation pages persistent? do i only need to set the timeout to None?

[floral ice]

how can i have dropdown menu, without callback and interaction failed message?

[cyan violet]

Hey.

Is there a function to get the messages when the bot gets an dm?

[grim estuary]

Hello! Can you please tell me by what logic the position of the Role and CategoryChannel is determined?

[icy badge]

@commands.Cog.listener("on_message")
async def on_message(self, message: discord.Message):
  if isinstance(message.channel, discord.channel.DMChannel)
    ...

[cyan violet]

thx

[winter saffron]

hello!
what's the difference between ctx and interaction?
i realized in my old file i have both
await interaction.response.send_message("Hello!")
and
await ctx.respond("Hello!")
both in slash command, they seem to do the same thing

[lofty parcel]

ctx is ApplicationContext for slash commands

interaction gets passed to components like buttons, and it is a discord.Interaction object

ctx.respond internally does interaction.response.send_message or sends a followup if the interaction was deferred

[winter saffron]

so they are essentially the same thing, just when it's slash commands you can use ctx instead of interaction?

oh WAIT nvm i got it

thanks!

[lapis dock]

Message components get interactions slash commands get ApplicationContext that includes interaction+more info

[little cobalt]

get_channel can be None

[lofty hedge]

hmm i dont think that would be the case because there's other errors being posted there before and after businesses startred randomly paying double

[little cobalt]

Still weird that its happening two times

[lofty hedge]

yeah, it makes 0 sense

whats more stupid is it works correctly for several hours than randomly break

[shell radish]

my best guess is that it is somehow running the tasks twice in a minute

[ivory beacon]

can i send link button via webhook ?

[shell radish]

only webhooks created by bots can send components (such as buttons)

[lapis dock]

If you only want to pay out on X:00 you could just set the task to run at those times. You can pass a list of datetime.times instead of minutes

That might help a bit

[lofty hedge]

oh wtf

i never knew that

ill be giving this a shot, thank you

[upbeat sluice]

any ideas for this?

[sage tendon]

code?

[upbeat sluice]

import logging

        )
        embed.set_image(url=image)
        await ctx.respond(embed=embed)

def setup(client):
    client.add_cog(TestCommand(client))```

it does not work with the image I linked above but it does work with other images

and I noticed that the image https://en.numista.com/catalogue/photos/allemagne/6058b1ae922851.03589029-original.jpg does not load on discord, but I can go to it on a browser and itll show the image. so that makes me wonder if something is going on with the image..

[sage tendon]

then just post the image on discord and copy the media URL

[upbeat sluice]

thats not really an option. the url is stored in a database alongside many other images from the same website

this is just a test cog I made to see if images embed properly

fooling around with the real cog I run into the same problem - urls from that website do not load properly in the embed, but if I replace the url with ones that load into discord properly, it works just fine

[sage tendon]

then that website is just weird

its definitely not above the embed size limit

[upbeat sluice]

yeah, it worked fine before

but it suddenly stopped working

[sage tendon]

i mean it is the website

however you manage to break that functionality

[upbeat sluice]

figured..

[sage tendon]

is it your website or

[upbeat sluice]

nope

so I assume they blocked images from loading on discord? idk how thats possible..

[sage tendon]

i mean, i dont think discord uses any of these UAs

https://en.numista.com/

yea, weird, their embeds dont seem to work whatsoever

well depending on how many images we're talking, it might just be easiest to "host" them on discord

[lofty parcel]

Considering the coming change on CDNs, not really tbh

[sage tendon]

why not?

You are loading it from inside discord

so its always gonna work

Plus, the changes are already in effect lol

[lofty parcel]

They arent afaik

[sage tendon]

to my knowledge they are

[lofty parcel]

@unkempt cipher

[sage tendon]

and as long as you request that media via discord, it will always renew the "lease" so to speak

[ivory beacon]

view ?

[edgy nest]

discord has a handle little embed debugger that helps with debugging: https://discord.com/developers/embeds
in this case, the website just hates discord

most likely anti bot measures

seeing as they are protected by cloudflare

[unkempt cipher]

mew?

[rich quartz]

Hey! I'm trying to subscribe to on_application_command, check if the slash command was run in a discord.TextChannel, and send an ephemeral error message if the slash command was not run in a text channel. My command creates a thread, which makes an error if you try and make a thread from in a thread.

After I send that error, how do I stop the actual command from trying to execute from within on_application_command?

[frail ocean]

webhook = discord.Webhook.partial(result[1], result[0], adapter=discord.RequestsWebhookAdapter())```
How can i use this in pycord?

[edgy nest]

https://docs.pycord.dev/en/stable/api/webhooks.html

[frail ocean]

Can i use webhooks with a webhook token and a webhook id and set a own avatar?

[edgy nest]

yes

[upbeat sluice]

ooo thats interesting, thank you for informing me about that 🙏

ive asked the website devs whats going on, then

I suppose if they say they wont revert it there's nothing much I can do aside from saving the image locally and uploading that..?

[edgy nest]

you could just

copy the discord link

im pretty sure it'll refresh it

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/958131361615597588/1209726698111762462/image.png

[sweet anchor]

what does this mean 🥹 🥹

it works perfectly fine, it only popped up today

[upbeat sluice]

the embed I made was a test cog so I can see if the embed works with images. the actual url is in a database

[edgy nest]

well just save the url in a database

[upbeat sluice]

yeah but then id have to upload every image on discord 💀

[edgy nest]

it means this is a bad idea and we shouldn't support it (but it works anyways so just ignore it)

[edgy nest]

you could just do that automatically

maybe

if your bot isn't blocked

[sweet anchor]

okay thank u

[upbeat sluice]

have the bot download every image and upload it, then snag the link?

[edgy nest]

yeah

[upbeat sluice]

I mean, yeah that could work

thanks for the help though, and the embed resource

perhaps its a website bug and theyll fix it but if not I guess ill do that instead

[atomic fern]

how to get current page in paginator? that i can used for custom_view

i need to know current page to updating the custom_view

setting up a task does not work for me

[little cobalt]

Add the wait for ready and also you forgot to start the task

[upbeat sluice]

thank you, that worked!

[granite meteor]

maybe im delusional but i remember there was a way to make get requests using the discord.Bot object...

[little cobalt]

You mean ```py
bot = discord.Bot()
bot.http

?

Or requests with aiohttp?

[granite meteor]

Yes that was it

ah, I was in an older version, thank you

[topaz halo]

how do I determine if a slash command came from a guild or a DM

[frail ocean]

Is it not possible to use id in something like that:

bot.get_guild(id=…)```

[topaz halo]

I am going to try something

I hooked a debugger on a command in DMs, ctx.guild is None

[topaz halo]

some of my slash commands are not appearing in discord

@bot.slash_command(name = "save", description = "Save the configuration, can only be used by the owner")
async def save(ctx : discord.ApplicationContext) -> None:
    if int(bot.owner_id) == int(ctx.author.id):
        config.save()
        await ctx.respond("Configuration saved")
        return
    await ctx.respond("You are not my owner")

[shell radish]

try restarting discord

[hazy turret]

Does anyone have an idea how I can determine the arrangement in an embed field?

For example, if I say I have a heading:

Text 1 | Text 2 | Text 3 | Text 4 |

And then I want to determine the sizes of the fields so that it looks like this afterwards:

Text 1    |        Text 2         |    Text 3    |     Text 4        
Hello     | How are you? |     Nice       |  Great 

Instead of

Text 1 | Text 2 | Text 3 | Text 4 |
Hello | How are you? | Nice | Great

[little cobalt]

you could use a description instead of the fields

or you add spaces

[hazy turret]

Spaces are automatically removed?

[hazy turret]

When I insert this, the spaces are removed and not displayed.
f"{var_1} | "

[frail ocean]

???!?

Member intents?

[wide jasper]

yeah, fixed it by using channel.voice_states

[frail ocean]

Ok

[wide jasper]

it also has member informations. but very weird that channel.members returns a empty list

i think its a cache problem or smth

[frail ocean]

Could be
