Basic Pycord Help

[fresh sierra]

i will do some research and test

if someone knows really well the slash commands, can you ping me i might have some question about that ;)

[hushed pebble]

how do i add reaction to interaction message

[rugged lodge]

Searched in pycord

discord.Message.add_reaction
discord.PartialMessage.add_reaction

[arctic plover]

I'm trying to split my commands into groups, but I get this:
TypeError: The provided command is a sub-command of group

My code:

bot = discord.Bot(intents=discord.Intents.all())
giveaways = discord.SlashCommandGroup("giveaway")

@bot.command(name="giveaway", parent=giveaways)
async def giveaway(ctx):
  pass

bot.run("token")

[fresh sierra]

look at the second line

it should be
giveaways = discord.SlashCommandGroup("giveaways")

with the s

and i think you can also do @giveaways.command

[arctic plover]

doesnt help

[fresh sierra]

try this

bot = discord.Bot(intents=discord.Intents.all())
giveaways = discord.SlashCommandGroup("giveaways")

@giveaways.command(name="giveaway")
async def giveaway(ctx):
  pass

bot.run("token")

[arctic plover]

There are no errors, but the command is not registered.

Do I have to add a subgroup to the bot somehow?

[fresh sierra]

did u try this ?

[arctic plover]

yes

[fresh sierra]

https://github.com/Pycord-Development/pycord/blob/master/examples/app_commands/slash_basic.py

look at those exemple

should help you

[arctic plover]

But this code doesn't use subcommands, does it?

You probably meant that
https://github.com/Pycord-Development/pycord/blob/master/examples/app_commands/slash_groups.py

yes, now it works

ty

[chilly crow]

import discord
from discord.ext import commands


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

    async def on_member_join(self, member: discord.Member):
        join_log = member.guild.get_channel(1109924971951685682)
        print('Testing Event')
        await join_log.send(embed=log_embed(member))


def log_embed(member):
    embed = discord.Embed(
        title=f"{member.name}",
        description='Joined the Server',
        color=discord.Color.from_rgb(10, 10, 10)
    )
    return embed


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

How would I tell the script now that on_member_join is supposed to be an event? Since @bot.event dont work now

nvm @commands.Cog.listener() works

[sage tendon]

@commands.Cog.listener

[sacred burrow]

Is there a function I can override to do something upon shutdown? before the event loop is closed.

Specifically, I want to sync an empty command list so all my application commands are cleaned up.

[sage tendon]

why?

[sacred burrow]

because there are two versions of my bot, a production one and a development one. Both use the same commands so having them show up in the slash autocomplete is confusing for users.

[sage tendon]

why do you have your dev bot anywhere near where your users are

you could gate it into specific channels with permissions

[fresh sierra]

i dont really understand what u trying to do but you can created command and limit to some guild

[sacred burrow]

Development, in this case, is one specific server where I noodle around with stuff people have requested running out of a pycharm window.. production is the exact same server plus about five others.
I mean, I could just make a command and run it by hand, but if there was some way to automatically do something on shutdown...

[sage tendon]

#dev-bot channel, and gate all commands to that channel only

[sacred burrow]

What I'm getting from this is that the answer to my original question is there isn't one.

Either way, I appreciate the effort, just not down for the re-architecting that would require right now.

[sage tendon]

well, i've never synced commands manually, so i for one cant help with that

just giving you the most simple and quick idea i could think of

[errant trout]

This is a little niche, but you can try de-abstract run and run your own logic instead

There's on_disconnect but it can run multiple times because of how gateway works so it won't be reliable

Really, it depends on how you do the shutdown

Like if you somehow force killed the bot's Python process then any automated shutdown stuff would be bypassed

[sacred burrow]

Ooh, that's a neat idea. And yeah, it would only work for graceful shutdowns. In PyCharm's case, it would be a keyboard interrupt exception.

[lapis dock]

@sacred burrow Note that there is a limit of registering 200 commands a day. So if you remove and re-add that would count. So that could add up quickly if you are doing a lot of testing.

[sage tendon]

true

[little cobalt]

you could test the slash command as a prefix command and change is later to a prefix command

if its basic stuff

[sage tendon]

or permissions

like i said

[tranquil steeple]

why is this returning all permissions as None

[sage tendon]

because it doesnt have any channel overrides

maybe youre in the wrong channel

not surei f oyu need any intents

are you sure the default_role parameter is correct?

[tranquil steeple]

it does have override. default_role is correct I print and check its returing @ everyone

[subtle moth]

is there any way to identify whether the fetched discord.User/discord.Member object is a deleted user or not?

im using discord.Bot.get_or_fetch_user() to do this

[sage tendon]

the discrim will be 0000 i think

[lofty parcel]

That wont work anymore

discrims wont be provided anymore

[sage tendon]

u sure?

[sacred burrow]

They return all zero now for everything other than bot accounts.

[sage tendon]

well, what is the pomelo name of a deleted acc

[subtle moth]

before when i used to do discord.Bot.fetch_user() id only sometimes get discord.errors.NotFound error

but it isnt consistent

itd sometimes return the member object the other times

[ancient cosmos]

Someone tried to use a slash command for my bot and got a "The application did not respond" timeout.

Not only does it work fine for me, but I have listeners for on_application_command, on_application_command_error, and on_error, each of which writes to a logging logger. I tried using the command both before and after he tried, and I can see my commands in the log. There's nothing in the log at all for his attempt.

If I got the request, but I just didn't execute it quickly enough, I would have thought I'd at least see the on_application_command log entry, but I just don't see any evidence that I ever got his request at all.

My gut feeling is that his internet just crapped out and the request never made it to me before the end of the timeout window, but before I ask him to try again, is there anything else I should double-check?

[subtle moth]

Defer the interaction, if it still fails it means it's an internet issue

to defer it, await discord.ApplicationContext.defer()

[sage tendon]

uhh, no

ctx.defer()

[subtle moth]

ctx is just a conventional parameter name, he could even name it as context

[sage tendon]

yea, but your code makes no sense

[subtle moth]

discord.ApplicationContext is what ctx actually holds

[sage tendon]

no

it holds an object of that class

you cant just call the class' function and expect something to happen

[subtle moth]

That's what I'm telling

[sage tendon]

no

you are telling them to call the bare function of the class, not of the actually passed object

[subtle moth]

Instance I meant

Well I just said that so it's easier to look from the docs

[sage tendon]

then link the docs :)

[subtle moth]

Cuz that's how the docs documents it

[subtle moth]

I'm lazy

[grizzled loom]

😞 just stop it. It's okay to be wrong sometimes and be corrected.

[ancient cosmos]

For what it's worth, I was initially confused, since the way it was phrased made it seem like some kind of module-level singleton or something like that.

But after I figured out what he meant, spelling out the full class name did make it a lot easier to find in the documentation.

(I mean I know what a context is, I'm just talking about making sure I'm looking at the right class for defer)

[sage tendon]

i mean you should always have the ApplicationContext docs open when programming
thats what i do lol

always need something from it

[grizzled loom]

yeah, refering to it is a good thing

[edgy nest]

i just guess attribute names and i usually get them right

or i'll tab complete until i find what i want

[wanton bramble]

Trying to convert code between dpy and pycord, whats the difference between pycords user command decorator and dpys normal commands

[maiden bloom]

has no breaking changes
gets errors because discord.Embed.Empty doesn't work anymore

[glacial cedar]

how would i check if a message was a reply-ping? (aka the user didnt turn off the ping when replying to the bot)

[cloud shell]

Hi all, my bot can't see message content when I'm trying to:

async def on_message(self, message)

What could be wrong?

[fresh sierra]

check if the intents message is enabled

[cloud shell]

That was it. Thanks 🙂 Fixed it

[fresh sierra]

pleasure

Hello, with prefix commands, is that possible to create a command name with a space, for exemple +backup list, and not backup_list ?

[maiden bloom]

Any idea why my bot takes forever to startup and get to the on_ready() function? I also get this message when it's starting before it hits on_ready():
WARNING:discord.gateway:WebSocket in shard ID 0 is ratelimited, waiting 58.00 seconds

[cloud shell]

like a sub commands?

[fresh sierra]

with prefix comand so not / but yes

[fresh sierra]

do you use shard for your bot ?

[maiden bloom]

Yes. Should I not?

[fresh sierra]

no you should use it

do you use the autoshardedbot ?

[maiden bloom]

Yes

[fresh sierra]

so try to check if you doesnt have fonction that can send a lot of request at the beginning

[cloud shell]

as far as I know command names in discord.py must be a single word without spaces. So, no 🙂

[fresh sierra]

i think they might be a possibilty, with the bridge command, you can also use command with a space so maybe. But thanks

[maiden bloom]

What would an example of this be?

[fresh sierra]

a fonction at the startup that create a invite in each guild, or fetch everymember

for example

[cloud shell]

async def backup(ctx, *, args):
    args = args.split()
    subcommand = args[0]
    subargs = args[1:]

    if subcommand == "list":
        await backup_list(ctx, *subargs)
    elif subcommand == "create":
        await backup_create(ctx, *subargs)
    else:
        await ctx.send("Invalid subcommand!")

something like that?

[maiden bloom]

I only have some initial setup like connecting to the SQLite db, starting an AsyncIOScheduler, declaring some authentication variables, and cog extension management commands

[fresh sierra]

i can, but with command with a 1000 lines is more complicated, but i think i will switch to /, more easir

[fresh sierra]

i can really help you with that but you can try to remove a function to see if that solve, if not you put it back and remove another etc

just to find from where it can be

[cloud shell]

absolutely, I can't see a reason to not use the slash commands

[fresh sierra]

prefix are faster

and not everyone is a big fan of /

[cloud shell]

not as userfriendly

pros and cons I guess 🤷

[fresh sierra]

yes pros and cons

i will try to do both for my clients but 2 times more job

[cloud shell]

well, good luck mate 😄

[fresh sierra]

thanks you man

[maiden bloom]

Oh, wow I ran the code on my testing bot that's in only a few servers and it got to the on_ready() instantly. So for some reason it's because of how many guilds my bot is in...?

[fresh sierra]

of course more there are member more it will take time

but you can handle that to handle the rate limit

but for example event like on_presence that give role are not the best if you try to add role or else

[maiden bloom]

With the actual bot it runs through the whole main.py script then gets to the bot.run(token) and takes forever to get to the on_ready() after that. So it's just sitting there starting the bot up the whole time and has nothing to do with my code then

[fresh sierra]

the fact that is take time is normal

because of the number of guild

but the rate liimit can be handle

[maiden bloom]

You're saying to not use certain event listeners?

[fresh sierra]

no but to be careful with it

on_presence, on_message are event trigger really often

[maiden bloom]

Oh, I can add a check at the beginning of them to not do anything if the bot isn't ready

[fresh sierra]

so if you do an action for each one, you can be rate limit

[maiden bloom]

Can I load a cog with the rest of the event listeners aside from on_ready() after the bot is ready?

[fresh sierra]

you can but why would you do that

it will not solve the rate limit

[maiden bloom]

Oh, so my issue is too many event listeners?

Can I give only some event listeners to one shard and the rest to another shard and that would help?

[fresh sierra]

its not like to many listener, it depend what you do in those listener

to be honest im pretty bad with rate limited, i think you should open a post in #969574202413838426 to get better advice

[maiden bloom]

I just added a check at the beginning of each of the event listeners I have that returns right away at the beginning of the listener if the bot isn't ready. Yet I'm still getting ratelimited

[vapid carbon]

hi guys, in my slash command im responding with ctx.respond()

but my bot has to connect to a different api, get data, process it and then respond

it is taking it longer i think 6 seconds to do all that work

is there a way i can increase the amount of time my bot takes to respond? right now it is erroring out

[little cobalt]

how do you do that?

[vapid carbon]

how am i connecting to the api?

[little cobalt]

yes

do you use requests?

[vapid carbon]

nah i am using https://cocpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/

they have their own python package, im using that

it is also async

[little cobalt]

ok its using asyncio

[vapid carbon]

yeah

[little cobalt]

if it takes more than 3 seconds you have to defer the slash command with await ctx.defer()

[vapid carbon]

oh

[vapid carbon]

so can i just do ```py

@bot.slash_command(name='war_plan', description='generate the war plan for current war')
async def warplan(ctx):
from game import war_plan

plan = await war_plan()

await ctx.defer()
await ctx.respond(plan)```

okay

[little cobalt]

just put the defer under the (ctx):

[vapid carbon]

i think i should defer before calling the slow funciton lol

[little cobalt]

ye

[vapid carbon]

thanks!

[grizzled loom]

How do I do the "once" part in Cogs?

(please ping on replay)

[little cobalt]

mhm

[grizzled loom]

can you link to this part?

[little cobalt]

https://docs.pycord.dev/en/v2.5.x/changelog.html

[grizzled loom]

Thank you, ill read up on it

[grizzled loom]

Is there any example for usage in a cog somewhere?

[little cobalt]

mhm

weird that it is not at the listener

[grizzled loom]

I've built my own thing for this case now. However, if someone finds or has an example how to do it with built in stuff for a cog, please do ping me.

[round heart]

Hey @fleet cedar, do you know if the once decorator can be used in cogs? Looking at the code it doesn’t seem like it’s exposed in the same way as commands.Cog.listener
(Tagging since you wrote it ❤️)

[grizzled loom]

That was my first approache. was confused it couldn't be used there 🙂

[cloud shell]

@commands.Cog.listener(once=True)
    async def on_ready(self):
        print('ready!')

have you tried that?

[little cobalt]

That is not gonna work

[grizzled loom]

no, that's working. as stated above, this was my first approache

[cloud shell]

yeah, wont work in the cog

@commands.Cog.listener()
    async def on_ready(self):
        print("ready..")

@commands.Cog.listener("on_ready")
    async def once(self):
        print("printed once when the cog is ready")

workaround? @grizzled loom

[grizzled loom]

I solved by assigning another attribute, boolean and True, to the class and turning it false after on_ready was executed.

[sly ember]

guys why arent my commands appearing when restarting the bot

[sage tendon]

show a command of yours in your code

[subtle moth]

Restart your client

[sage tendon]

and that

[sly ember]

hm

[sage tendon]

tf are you doing lol

discord.option is the decorator

[sly ember]

from discord.option import Option, OptionChoice?

[sage tendon]

...what?

[sly ember]

what

ahh wait

[sage tendon]

if you wanna use the decorator. import discord.option

[little cobalt]

why did you import Option two times?

[sage tendon]

actually i think its the same thing because of how its set up

but, yea, dont import the same thign twice

[sage tendon]

Okay, why are you importing it three times

do it once

and ideally, dont do multiple imports on one line, for readability
not to speak of most your imports being unused from what i can see

and please dont duplicate "import discord" 50 times just for importing different things under shorter names

[stuck oar]

Is there no listener for when commands.Cog is loaded? on_ready only works when the bot is running.

[sage tendon]

in the init ig?

[stuck oar]

i want use await but await allowed only within async function can i resolve it?

[sage tendon]

no idea if you can make an init async, i doubt it

[lofty parcel]

You can. Its kinda weird, but you can

There are examples in this channel

[sly ember]

idk what to import so the problem will be fixed, sorry

[sage tendon]

dont import option 3 times

[sly ember]

so just from discord import Option, OptionChoice

[sage tendon]

yes
or just import discord normally and do discord.Option

[sly ember]

import discord
from discord import Option, OptionChoice
from discord.ext import commands 
from transmitter.embedmitter import InputMitter
from embed.embedmodal import Embed_Maker


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

    @commands.slash_command(description="Erstelle ein eigenes Embed", name="embed")
    @commands.has_permissions(administrator=True)
    async def embed(self, ctx, title: Option(str, required=True), color: Option(str, choices=colors, required=True)):
        if color == "Ge":
            col = discord.Color.yellow()    
        elif color == "Or":
            col = discord.Color.orange()
        elif color == "Re":
            col = discord.Color.red()
        elif color == "Li":
            col = discord.Color.purple()
        elif color == "Gr":
            col = discord.Color.green()
        elif color == "Bl":
            col = discord.Color.blue()
        InputMitter().cmdinput(title, col)
        await ctx.send_modal(Embed_Maker())


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

looks like that now, option is still underlined

[sage tendon]

and what does it say when you hover over it?

[sly ember]

mean that?

[sage tendon]

oh, thats just vscode being dumb

pylance, rather

[sly ember]

how can i fix?

[keen relic]

what will @app_commands.describe(command="describe") in pycord

[sage tendon]

never seen that before

[sage tendon]

no clue, think you cant

[keen relic]

@sage tendon ??

[sage tendon]

what

[keen relic]

@sage tendon ..

[sage tendon]

are you blind or smth

[little cobalt]

app command?

[keen relic]

sorry but i have no idea about py-cord

[keen relic]

yeap

[little cobalt]

eh

[sage tendon]

great, but i still said ive never seen that before lol

[keen relic]

ok

[little cobalt]

that is the old discord.py stuff

[keen relic]

no slash command describe

[little cobalt]

do you want to use py-cord?

[keen relic]

i am using

[sage tendon]

do pip list in a cmd window and show us the output

[keen relic]

i want to set description in amount

[sage tendon]

.

[little cobalt]

pls do pip list

[sage tendon]

brh

[keen relic]

ok

[little cobalt]

and I already see discord

[sage tendon]

yea that looks like discord.py is installed

[keen relic]

``pip3 list

[sage tendon]

hm

[little cobalt]

do you have other version installed?

[keen relic]

no

[little cobalt]

or a venv?

[sage tendon]

show us the code of the command please

[keen relic]

venv

[sage tendon]

and did you run pip list in the venv?

[keen relic]

i run in venv

[sage tendon]

i think there's something called BridgeOption that you need to use to put a description then

[keen relic]

ok

[keen relic]

give me example

plz

[sage tendon]

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

never used bridgeoption before so i cant help you more than the docs do

[keen relic]

ok brother

[sage tendon]

but you need to typehint the parameter in your function definition as a bridgeoption

can i find example?

[lofty parcel]

Use something called the search bar

Very popular around Discord

[stuck oar]

this one?

[lofty parcel]

Try it and see

[keen relic]

@stuck oar can u help me bro or sis ? chat in dm

[sage tendon]

bruh

actually the docs apparently also just use the normal option decorator for bridge commands too

so use that

https://github.com/Pycord-Development/pycord/blob/master/examples/bridge_commands.py#L22

weird

[keen relic]

it was another topic bro

then DM them directly or ask your question directly

right?

yea i think so

you are definitely missing awati somewhere

and i think its there

[stuck oar]

app.py:22: RuntimeWarning: coroutine 'Suggestion.__new__' was never awaited

same error

[sage tendon]

oh

well

beacuse its async, you need to await the creation of the suggestion object now

mb

[stuck oar]

where?

await bot.load_extension -> error

[sage tendon]

now i dont know anymore.. sorry.. maybe dark knows

[sly ember]

damnnn, ah and why isnt the command appearing for me even after restart of bot?

[sage tendon]

restart your discord

[sage tendon]

why are you not using the option decorator like i suggested

[errant trout]

can you follow these instructions #1132206148309749830 message

[keen relic]

its work before adding option user

[lapis dock]

Don't ping random helpers for help, be patient and if your question is not answered try rephrasing it or putting it in a forum channel

[keen relic]

ok brother

[sage tendon]

(that answer meant "go away, I always do it like this and i wont stop doing it")

[keen relic]

bro my problem fix i dont cap -> u in user: discord.user and than making problem

[sage tendon]

If you program like you speak english then i know why that is

[keen relic]

yeap

[errant trout]

discord.user should be uppercase discord.User

[keen relic]

i am not good in langauge

Extension 'cogs.ticket' raised an error: RecursionError: maximum recursion depth exceeded while calling a Python object whats that

[glacial cedar]

Bump (just in case)

[sage tendon]

you seem to have recursion in your code, find it and fix it

[shell radish]

do you know what recursion is?

[sly ember]

no

[sage tendon]

https://docs.pycord.dev/en/stable/api/models.html#discord.Message.mentions

i think this should work

[sage tendon]

if you have a function that keeps calling itself in its body, thats recursion

[sly ember]

oh damn, how can i find it

[sage tendon]

read your code

[sly ember]

damn it

[sage tendon]

if you're lazy then give it to chatgpt and ask it to find it

[sly ember]

sure

[glacial cedar]

Have already tried, seems to work only when mentioning the bot with @ and not reply-pinging

[sage tendon]

https://docs.pycord.dev/en/stable/api/data_classes.html#discord.MessageFlags.suppress_notifications i'm not sure if this just means the @silent thing

but you can try it out

https://docs.pycord.dev/en/stable/api/models.html#discord.Message.flags

im p sure it would just trigger for @silent but i cant find anything else that would make reply pings detectable

[sly ember]

think fixed it but now i get: Extension 'cogs.ticket' raised an error: AttributeError: 'TicketDB' object has no attribute 'setup'

[sage tendon]

well, read the error lol

[sly ember]

ah wait didnt closed it

dont understand it anymore

[sage tendon]

why do you have a cog in your main file

what

why are you loading a cog like that

im so confused

i have so many questions

[sly ember]

i dont

[sage tendon]

then why are you redefining your bot?

and why is your class definition under all the code?

wait why do you have 2 ticket classes

oh

[sly ember]

like 1 is for all the functions you know

[sly ember]

i had that error before Extension 'cogs.ticket' raised an error: TypeError: TicketDB.__init__() missing 1 required positional argument: 'bot'

[glacial cedar]

I meant this

[sage tendon]

and thats why you dont mix your util classes into your cogs

[sage tendon]

i know

[sly ember]

how to fix?

[sage tendon]

well
if you only need the functions in the db class for your cog, just put them in the cog lol

[sage tendon]

just dont do it the second way?

i dont really see the issue lol

ping is the command, ! is the prefix

and yes, you can override it

if im wrong correct me everyone but i think you can just copy the help command class from the lib and change the stuff you wanna change

[terse arrow]

Heya all, I am trying to escape this ^ character from my discord file return. For some reason either it does not send and throws an error or it returns without the ^
Name I want - mp_m_freemode_01^jbib_diff_001_a_uni

    await ctx.respond("Uniform Created")

    filename = f"sent/mp_{sex}_freemode_01^^{type}_diff_{number}_{letter}_uni.ytd"


    await ctx.send(file=discord.File(filename))

[sage tendon]

fix your codeblock

and put the name you want into a codeblock too

[sage tendon]

or dont

[shell radish]

there's nothing special about ^

[red mist]

Is it even possible to upload files to a bot?

Like attach files to a command

[shell radish]

that's what the Attachment option type is for

[red mist]

Thanks for giving me the founding brick to my goal

[frail ocean]

Is there already a way to change the bot av via code

[shell radish]

yes

[frail ocean]

Can u send?

There always was.

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

# Create a Discord client instance
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!

[frail ocean]

Nope

[lofty parcel]

No what?

That's how you do it.

You get the ClientUser object with discord.Bot.user

[shell radish]

As an AI language model, I have no idea what you mean by that /j

[frail ocean]

There is no way to change banner

[shell radish]

you said avatar

[lofty parcel]

You change the banner through the dev portal...

[frail ocean]

Oops sorry

[frail ocean]

No its bugged

[shell radish]

idk what you mean @timid shuttle has it

[frail ocean]

Yeah

But if u set it via dev portal it gets zoomed in

[lofty parcel]

Well that's their issue isn't it

The ddevs server has solutions

[shell radish]

zoom it out /s

[sage tendon]

thats how banners wrok

try uploading a banner on the client

same shit

[frail ocean]

And how?

[shell radish]

What type of banner are you trying to upload

[sage tendon]

which aspect ratio, more importantly

[frail ocean]

png

[sage tendon]

which aspect ratio.

Banners have to be in 17:6 aspect ratio

[shell radish]

69:420 /s

Hey, is there a way to have more emojis in one choice of select menu?

having emojis directly in the text for example

discord seems to not allow this

[fleet cedar]

Honestly I don’t remember anymore 😅

I’ll check and let you know

[sage tendon]

its just unicode characters, so, why not

[oblique sable]

Hmm okay

[stuck oar]

So await operations can't be performed when Cog is loaded?

[lofty parcel]

Why do you need an async init?

[stuck oar]

I would like to send a message when Cogs loads. (specified channel)

[lofty parcel]

Add a cog listener to the on_ready event and send the message there.
Cogs on pycord aren't loaded at runtime, they're loaded before.

[stuck oar]

That way, messages will only be sent the first time the bot is run. I would like to have it transmitted even when unload and load (reload) cogs. Is this not possible?

so here's the thing, on_ready doesn't take any args.

this might be better put inside a cog instead of a seperate file

Thanks Bro Now Working

great

[fresh sierra]

you need to await it

just read the error

[sly ember]

really have no idea how

[little cobalt]

Why dont you use only one cog for every file?

[fresh sierra]

so to await something you need to add an await before ;)

[sly ember]

for file in os.listdir(r"cogs"):
    if file.endswith(".py"):

        try:

here is the right spot

this is not where your error happen

because that's where your print is

[sly ember]

damn

[grizzled loom]

the problem might be that he is trying to create a new task instead of using the bots already existing loop to call .setup

[grizzled loom]

server_id INTEGER PRIMARY KEY, <- this is gonna be a problem

primary key has to be unique

you have a primary key set for a guild id

you can not make a second entry with the same id

make it a combination of two things. first part of your primary key can be guild.id.

the second part of your primary key must be something that only appears once in combination with this guild id

so if you store several rows for this server
and several rows for each category
category can not be the second part of your key

also any part of your primary key should not have DEFAULT 0, cause it can run into the same problem. in has to have NOT NULL instead, so its sth. you have to pass when creating a db entry

*pass meaning "pass along" not "pass" in the python sense of the word

Does this make sense to you FantasyOnFire?

furthermore

[sly ember]

pretty complicated actually haha

[grizzled loom]

what is

self.db = None

for? it's not used anywhere

[grizzled loom]

in simpler terms

a primary key is there to identify one specific row.
therefore under no circumstances two identical primary keys can exist in any database

row one, column 1, guild_id = 1234

now you can not make any more entries with guild_id = 1234 in the entire table

better?

[sly ember]

yes

[grizzled loom]

good

[sly ember]

here is the problem?

[grizzled loom]

the problem is how your table layout is made when it's created.

ofc everthing else that tries to use this table will fail eventually

as lont as this isnt changed working on other parts doesnt make much sense

*long

and you have to delete the table with the wrong layout/design so it makes a new one ofc

[sly ember]

so just recreate the table like that?

[grizzled loom]

no, that's your code. its from the txt file you sent in here a few minutes earlier

[sly ember]

yep

[grizzled loom]

i just used it to highlite the problem, so you know what part to work on 🙃

[fresh sierra]

also server_id should be BIGINT and not INT

[grizzled loom]

depends

[fresh sierra]

because guild can be higher than the int limit

[grizzled loom]

sqlite? int is fine.

mysql BIGINT it has to be

[sly ember]

i use mysql

[fresh sierra]

so put BIGINT

or u will get some error

[grizzled loom]

what Luma said then, for mysql he's perfectly right

😅 I just assumed it would be sqlite when I saw the int

[sly ember]

so what should i change to what?

[fresh sierra]

in your table int to bigiunt

[sly ember]

i already dropped the tabled

[sage tendon]

I don't think so
How many commands does your cog have that you'd need multiple files

[lapis dock]

https://github.com/Dorukyum/pycord-multicog made by a pycord dev but not offical supported

[oblique sable]

hey guys is it possible to send 2 modals in a row?

i have amodal where i need to put 5 inputs haha, so its too big apparently

so i wanted to send a second modal after for that but im not sure its possible

[little cobalt]

5 should work fine

5 is the limit for a modal

[lapis dock]

to answer your original question no, you would have to have the modal respond with a button that responds with another modal

[oblique sable]

Okay thanks

[oblique sable]

Ohhh i didnt know that, thought it was 4, lesgooo !

[echo leaf]

Is there a way to change bot's banner? (I mean can the bot change it)

[little cobalt]

At the website you can do it but I dont know if they already added it to pycord

[echo leaf]

Ik that I can do it on developers portal

But my banner includes stats so bot should update it by itself

[echo leaf]

They added it https://github.com/Pycord-Development/pycord/commit/530f3d45956e037d3d5bea0a02153887abfafe2f

[deft kestrel]

Hi, so basically i made a function that sends an embed with 2 button, how could i return a value to a variable whatever a button has been pressed when calling that function

[fresh sierra]

only in the master branch

[echo leaf]

ik

[sage tendon]

use the button callback

[deft kestrel]

do you have an example?

[sage tendon]

just handle the stuff you wanna do in the function of the button you defined i nyour view class

[deft kestrel]

i dont wanna do that tho

[echo leaf]

Just readthedocs

Or google for examples

[deft kestrel]

Yeah what am i supposed to google if i dont know what its called

good advice

[echo leaf]

button callback

Thats what you need to google

[sage tendon]

bruh

[echo leaf]

Or just read the docs about the button

[sage tendon]

if you dont wanna do whats required to solve your problem then what exactly do you want

[deft kestrel]

I dont think you understand what im trying to achive

[sage tendon]

i absolutely do

[deft kestrel]

return the button pressed

[sage tendon]

yea you said that

[deft kestrel]

you cant return a value from the callback

[sage tendon]

but thats not really how buttons / views work

[deft kestrel]

Then how could i apporach this then

[sage tendon]

handle the code for the button in the code for the button

as i said

[deft kestrel]

Augh

fine

[sage tendon]

also just use f strings for this, simple tip

[deft kestrel]

yes it was just for testing

[lofty parcel]

Yes you can

[deft kestrel]

How?

Because i cant just put return value in the callback

the function just returns the message sent before and not the button pressed

[lofty parcel]

Define a variable on the callback self.my_value = "hello" and you also add self.stop()

view = MyView()
view.wait()
print(view.my_value)

[deft kestrel]

lemme try

[deft kestrel]

like this?

[lofty parcel]

Yes

It should print "hello" if you click that button

[deft kestrel]

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

startSetup is the file

a wait

i had to await it

Thank you

[lofty parcel]

ah yes, sorry

[deft kestrel]

No worries

[lofty parcel]

Consider adding a check for if the view times out

View.wait returns True or False depending if it timed out or if it was manually stopped

.rtfm ui.View.wait

[sly karma]

discord.ui.View.wait

[deft kestrel]

thanks

[sage tendon]

hm, never did that actually

[little cobalt]

when i try to put something on row 5

got it

i should start with row 0 then?

i was always starting with row 1 hahaa

oh gosh same for buttons and all, i never knew that 😭

[sage tendon]

Arrays and lists always start at index 0

thats like, a basic concept of programming

[oblique sable]

i know that very good haha

but i didnt know the rows system had to start at 0

thought it was made so it starts at 1

[stray pasture]

Why cant I put any gif in the developer portal for a banner or pf for an bot ? only accept jpeg or png

[errant trout]

they're planning on updating it to support gifs

for now, you can set a gif avatar via bot.user.edit; banner support was just added on master, but not a formal release

what kind of error am i looking at?

[shell radish]

something dns related maybe. definitely network

[final bone]

i assumed as much but I just have a hard time believing it's a dns issue considering that im able to open and operate discord.

[shell radish]

can you curl or ping anything?

[final bone]

i would screenshot a smaller area, if i could

[shell radish]

what about not on the local machine

[final bone]

everything else is working

the 3 other residents in the building also aren't making any complaints

¯_(ツ)_/¯

i don't do hardware

amazing, I kid you not it's working now

I'm going to assume my isp was being fuckity and somewhat got their shit together

no

[lone hound]

to give a role to a member I need to give the role's ID?

[sage tendon]

depends on how you do it

if you have a slash command, you don't have to

[lone hound]

it's on the on_member_join event

[sage tendon]

then, yes

[serene goblet]

Hi so I'm trying to make a command like the example below but I'm not sure what object/class (?) I need to use in order to make it work. I would like it to auto complete or suggest values for the state

async def change_state(ctx: discord.ApplicationContext, search: str, state:...):

so when I type /chnage_state search: "some text" state: I get options of different states to pick (start, stop, restart).
I'm probarbly not explaining it very well

[sage tendon]

do you have a set amount of choices or is it just supposed to suggest a few words

[serene goblet]

the former, the choices will always be start, stop, restart

[sage tendon]

then make a discord.Option() with the choices=[] parameter

though

do you have the search option already handled via the @option decorator?

[serene goblet]

nope, but I'll hopefully be able to figure it out

[sage tendon]

i would always suggest using the @option decorator

else your function header can get very long

example

[serene goblet]

okay thank you for the example, using the decerator does make sense

so somehting a little like this

@commands.option(name="state", description="The state to change the container to.", type=3, choices=[discord.ApplicationCommandOptionChoice(name="start", value="start"), discord.ApplicationCommandOptionChoice(name="stop", value="stop"), discord.ApplicationCommandOptionChoice(name="restart", value="restart")])

[sage tendon]

i am pretty sure you can just do choices=["string", "string2"]

but lemme check

yea you can do it like this if your names and values dont differ

[serene goblet]

okay great. saves on a whole bumch of lines lol

[little cobalt]

since I know how to use a decorator to "autocreate" a slash command I dont use options anymore like that x3

[sage tendon]

then how

[sage tendon]

also, you can just use discord.option or just import option directly btw

[frail ocean]

Is there a way to get the guild count from other bpts

[frail ocean]

                action = discord.AutoModAction(action_type=discord.AutoModActionType.block_message, 
                                               metadata=trigger_metadata)````
For what do i need metadata in here

[sage tendon]

docs will tell you

[frail ocean]

I dunt understand it

Docs are bad when i talk about automod

[sage tendon]

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

[frail ocean]

action = discord.AutoModAction(action_type=discord.AutoModActionType.block_message, metadata=)```thats my code

If i put custom_message in i get an error

[sage tendon]

just make a AutoModActionMetaData object

[frail ocean]

metadata=discord.AutoModActionMetadata(custom_message="You have one or more words in your message that are forbidden on this server.")

This should be correct?

@sage tendon^^

[sage tendon]

try it and see

[frail ocean]

It doesnt work

It says

discord.errors.ApplicationCommandInvokeError: Application Command raised an exception: TypeError: AutoModActionMetadata.__init__() got an unexpected keyword argument 'custom_message'```

Bro its copyed from docs tf

[sage tendon]

lol

then i dont know either

[frail ocean]

What is the problem?

[sage tendon]

literally wtf

[frail ocean]

Yes its weird

https://discord.com/channels/881207955029110855/1219383639553474640

[sage tendon]

maybe pass it positionally?

[frail ocean]

wdym

[sage tendon]

dont pass it as keyword

[sage tendon]

and?

[serene goblet]

wait which am I supposed to import to use the @option decorator? the commands.option or discord.option?

[sage tendon]

its teh same, but discord.option

[serene goblet]

um okay

[sage tendon]

3 is not a type

[serene goblet]

do I need to tell it which type to use or will it just do it?

[sage tendon]

what do you want to do wit hthat

pass it as the first positional argument

thats how i do it

[serene goblet]

I see there's 4 types in the docs

[sage tendon]

yea, you just type the name

i always pass the name and type as positional arguments, in that order

because they're kinda obvious to read in the code

[serene goblet]

so this?

@option(3, name="state", description="The state to change the container to.", type=3, choices=["start", "stop", "restart"])

how do I find the name? is it just SlashCommandOptionType? I read the docs as there being 4 types and that each type was a list of sub types (making SlashCommandOptionType the sub type)

[sage tendon]

again, 3 is not a type

literally just write str

[serene goblet]

ohh

okay thanks again for the help

[sage tendon]

np

[ancient cosmos]

Let's say I deferred the response to an interaction, but then an exception occurs afterwards.

In order to keep the interaction from waiting forever with a "[my bot] is thinking..." spinner, is the best practice here to listen for on_application_command_error, and context.respond the context provided as a parameter to that event, with some kind of "Some kind of error occurred" message?

(I mean I know I can do that, I'm just asking whether that's the normal/advised practice.)

[errant trout]

seems fine to me

[frail ocean]

What

[frail ocean]

Can someone tell me how I make a user command

[errant trout]

like the right click commands?

[frail ocean]

Nope. Since yesterday users can add apps to themselves

You know what i mean?

[errant trout]

not possible in pycord yet

but fwiw, there's nothing much to change - when it's available, they'll be easy to implement within discord's limitations

[frail ocean]

Shouldn't pycord have been notified by Discord that they had this on time?

[errant trout]

lala and doruk were already working on it since last year

that doesn't mean it can be released instantly

[frail ocean]

Since last year? What

[errant trout]

for some features lib devs might have info on it early

[frail ocean]

This function has been planned for so long?

[errant trout]

...internally, 7 years ago (this is kinda getting off track, if you wanna read some of lala's insights it's from #general message)

[frail ocean]

A friend send me, that u have to put 2 words and 4 numbers in the commands. That can’t be take that long

[errant trout]

then go patch it in yourself idk man

[frail ocean]

Okay

[errant trout]

sure we *could* just release that but it needs to be properly implemented to the API spec

[frail ocean]

Btw https://discord.com/channels/881207955029110855/1219383639553474640 is a bug or?

[errant trout]

no, it was implemented on 2.5

if you tried to use it on 2.4 then of course it'd error

[frail ocean]

Can i add a custom message and timeout

[errant trout]

as per docs, yes https://docs.pycord.dev/en/stable/api/models.html#discord.AutoModActionMetadata

[frail ocean]

The docs state that it has been available since 2.0

[errant trout]

that's for AutoModActionMetadata, not custom_message

[frail ocean]

Okay okay understand

Thanks

[errant trout]

(arguably that should have a separate version number but i probably forgot)

[little cobalt]

Take a look at this

[rugged lodge]

Here's the slash cog groups example.

[shut fox]

how to create a role?

[sage tendon]

check the docs for "guild"

[shut fox]

thx

[safe obsidian]

@sage tendon like I said its an application bot. Someone answers questions in a DM, then the bot posts those responses along with accept/deny buttons in a thread for admins to review

[sage tendon]

as for the views, can you show the code that handles creating them, and the view itself

[safe obsidian]

older thread buttons die once it posts a new appliation thread

[fickle salmon]

are you making a new view object every time or reusing the old one?

[sage tendon]

yea that's what popped in my head just now too

[fickle salmon]

and you probably want to look at persistent views

[safe obsidian]

im going to get evicerated on my code 💀

[rugged lodge]

Here's the persistent example.

[sage tendon]

if you're even just an average coder, half of all people are worse

[noble flax]

Is there a way to refresh the slashcommands? I've got to the point with my bot where I will fire it back up in debug to see if a slashcommand works, and the old slashcommand remains and the new one doesn't exist (and or the changed option isn't updated and still has the old one)

[sage tendon]

restart your discord

[noble flax]

really?!

Its my discord that's the issue not the bot

[sage tendon]

ctrl+r

bot Devs best friend

[shut fox]

How to set permissions correctly when creating a role? (I need an example)

[fresh sierra]

Read the doc

[fickle salmon]

make sure you're waiting 2 minutes between restarts, you could be rate limited when registering commands

[sage tendon]

restarting your bot* discord ofc doesn't matter

[noble flax]

Yeah heard - both god sends. Thank You

[safe obsidian]

these are the approvalRoles buttons that break once a new thread is made

[sage tendon]

ok first question why are you iterating over a list

why aren't you doing it like, on-demand as the users request it or whatever your setup is

[safe obsidian]

I cant remember precisely, I made this about 6 months back and now im trying to fix some things. If I remember its because I didnt know how to keep context for sending the right questions to each of the DM sessions with the bot so I used an array

[sage tendon]

yea the code confuses me a lot lol

[little cobalt]

Its actually written really well

[sage tendon]

this is really where my python knowledge ends but I think it MIGHT be because you keep using the same variable and it keeps being overwritten? so the old view goes out of scope?

[little cobalt]

I already saw so messy codes at this server here

[sage tendon]

correct me pretty please I'm tired

[safe obsidian]

so im probably overwriting the view with each application thread that is made huh?

[fickle salmon]

where does server_id come from

[sage tendon]

I was thinking that, but I genuinely don't know how this stuff works in python
in java it'd be clear

[fickle salmon]

I think persistent views will fix it

[sage tendon]

well you'd be letting the view go out of context basically, and so it gets deleted from ram
maybe lol

[sage tendon]

yea you need this anyway I think

[safe obsidian]

all of the variables are just globals uptop until I eventually make a config file

[sage tendon]

all?

[fickle salmon]

all.

[safe obsidian]

all the statics are up there like the role ids and such yeah

[sage tendon]

approvalview too by any chance

nvm I'm dumb

[safe obsidian]

the only globals are role ids, server id, and the application question strings

is having those static id numbers up top while im still just developing and testing it that bad?

i understand moving them to a config file to make changes easier eventually

[fickle salmon]

globals in python were a mistake

[sage tendon]

lmfao

just hardcode it, honestly

easier to tell it apart from actual variables

[fickle salmon]

also you're editing a list while looping over it

I thought that was illegal

[sage tendon]

illegal? no

highly risky? yes

[fickle salmon]

>>> x=[1,2,3]
>>> for i in x:
...   x.remove(i)
... 
>>> x
[2]

🙃

[warm jay]

I have @discord.default_permissions(manage_messages=True) on 3 commands. Everyday users can still use the command. Why is that

[sage tendon]

check the actual permissions in the server settings

you / someone might have overridden them

[warm jay]

Imma tell the owner that then

[fickle salmon]

I thought python wouldn't let you

[sage tendon]

oh it would

[fickle salmon]

I must be thinking of something else

or an older version

[sage tendon]

and i think its good
programming languages should not set any hard limits unless absolutely necessary

[sage tendon]

because even if most cases end in shit like this, it still has uses

[fickle salmon]

oh and you probably want a break after you remove the member @safe obsidian

unless you expect them to be in the list twice

[safe obsidian]

so I should restructure the removal to snag the index, break, then remove after?

[fickle salmon]

yeah

[subtle moth]

Personally I think a dictionary would be a better choice instead of a nested list

[shut fox]

how to send message to a specific channel?

[rugged lodge]

Searched in pycord

discord.Client.get_partial_messageable

Searched in pycord

discord.PartialMessageable.send
discord.PartialMessageable.can_send

[fickle salmon]

it's just channel.send once you have the channel object

[frail laurel]

fast question, does message.reply have some option to reply without pinging?

[fickle salmon]

yes, I believe it's mention=False

[frail laurel]

yeah, but why it isn't said in docs

i mean optional parameters

[sage tendon]

am i dumb? why does this not edit the response?

[rugged lodge]

Searched in pycord

discord.ext.commands.Context.reply

[fickle salmon]

it's mention_author
https://docs.pycord.dev/en/stable/api/abcs.html#discord.abc.Messageable.send

[sage tendon]

?
the response sends just fine
but i wanna edit it
it keeps getting stuck there without an error

[little cobalt]

it should also work with ctx.interaction.edit_original....

[frail ocean]

Command?

[sage tendon]

?

yes

[frail ocean]

Do await ctx.edit

[shut fox]

how to make a message that will only be visible to one person. example:

[fresh sierra]

interation ephemeral

[shut fox]

thx

[fickle salmon]

That was for master killer, not you

[sage tendon]

oh

[frail ocean]

Does it work

[shut fox]

how to made cooldown for a command?

[lapis dock]

You can start here

[rugged lodge]

Here's the cooldown example.

[sage tendon]

eh cba to try around more, just did defer now

[frail ocean]

Okay

[errant trout]

ctx.edit

[sage tendon]

so i can do
ctx.respond()
and then
ctx.edit()?

[errant trout]

It's property because it's a copy of interaction.edit, poor formatting from our autodoc

[errant trout]

And yes

[deft kestrel]

how can i edit an embed twice while interacting with it? apparently i cant prompt a modal, then edit the same message after modal has been fulfilled. it gives:
this message already has been edited.
error or something like that

[little cobalt]

https://guide.pycord.dev/introduction

[lofty parcel]

Can you show your code

[deft kestrel]

i changed it but it was something like this

it would say, interaction message has already been edited before

[lofty parcel]

Why don't you just create the role on the modal callback?...

[deft kestrel]

because i need it later on

What im trying to do it to setup a ticket category with the correct permissions ect

[fresh sierra]

why dont you use a dropdown to select an existant role ?

[deft kestrel]

thats what the second button is supposed do

basically what im trying to achive is to ask the user for information, and create a ticket system based of those information

also i am creating the role in the callback, im just returning it as a value later on

[serene goblet]

If I'm using the required=False attribute in the decorator then I don't need to use search:str = None, right?

@option(name="search", type=str, description="Search for specific containers.", required=False)
async def list(ctx: ApplicationContext, search: str = None) -> None:

[sage tendon]

p sure itll be none regardless

[serene goblet]

is there a way I could make a slash command accept the same input multiple times. I have a search argument and I'd like users to be able to input multiple searches. Would I need to add multiple search arguments like search_1, search_2 or could I use *args or somehting

[lapis dock]

Discord requires you to specifically define them. So have a search_1, search_2, etc
Another way would just be to tell the user to split searches with , or somthing.

[serene goblet]

yeah that makes sense and lines up with what I thought

[young cove]

I'm trying to make buttons wider for my paginator using something similar to: #998272089343668364 message
(just adding spaces to the label)

But it isn't changing the width. Any ideas?

    buttons = [ButtonClass("prev", label="   <   ", custom_id="paginator1" + str(nameId), style=discord.ButtonStyle.green),
               ButtonClass("page_indicator", custom_id="paginator2" + str(nameId), style=discord.ButtonStyle.gray,
                           disabled=True),
               ButtonClass("next", label="   >  ", custom_id="paginator3" + str(nameId), style=discord.ButtonStyle.green)]

I suspect it could have something to do with my custom ButtonClass that I'm using to make the paginators persistent:

class ButtonClass(PaginatorButton):
    def __init__(self, *args, **kwargs) -> None:
        super().__init__(*args, **kwargs)

    async def callback(self, interaction: discord.Interaction):
        test = interaction.message.components[0].children[1].label
        teststring = str(test)
        testsplit = teststring.partition("/")
        selectsplit = int(testsplit[0])
        self.paginator.message = interaction.message
        self.paginator.current_page = selectsplit - 1
        await super().callback(interaction)```

[lofty parcel]

I'm sure discord stips the spaces

You should use an invisible character instead

The user of the thread you mentioned uses invisible characters, not spaces

[young cove]

Aha this is what I was missing thanks

[deft kestrel]

how to log any command/event etc? there's something to log every update?
(i want to log in a discord channel)

[vestal crystal]

is there a way to detect if a user is talking? or how can i use start_recording as long the user is talking? Currenlty im using
await asyncio.sleep(2)
but it will only record for the given seconds and then continue.

Anyone has a clue?

[worn sphinx]

I want to make prefix commands that only I have access to.

So Is it possible to make prefix commands that only work within a DMChannel of a specific user?
And should something other than wait_for be used for a function like this?

[lofty parcel]

The docs has all possible events you can listen to. Read them.

[lofty parcel]

There's a is_owner decorator for that.

Only the owner of the bot would be able to run that command.

[worn sphinx]

Thanks Dark!
So if it's a slash command it wouldn't be visible to others?

[lofty parcel]

No, if it is a slash command it'd still be visible

The decorator is just an internal check.

The only way to "hide" a slash command is only registering it in a private guild of yours.

[worn sphinx]

Dang thanks good to know!

[worn sphinx]

That's a smart workaround.
I'll make it a prefix command instead then since those have no visibility

[wide acorn]

can you already use user apps with the master branch or is this feature not yet implemented?

[stray pasture]

Does pycord supports rate limits of top level resources in a bucket ?

[sly ember]

is it possible to sync slash commands in pycord since my command isnt appearing after restart

[errant trout]

not yet

[errant trout]

did you override on_connect

[errant trout]

elaborate

[sly ember]

on_connect?

[errant trout]

if you didn't that's fine

[sly ember]

i mean i could have, but im not sure where it is

[errant trout]

if you did then it'd be in your main bot file

that's where the command sync happens, normally you wouldn't need to do anything special - it's always meant to sync on startup

[sly ember]

dont think i override it

[wide acorn]

okay thx, do you know when this feature will be implemented?

[errant trout]

don't have an ETA but lala and doruk have already been working on it for a while

if you're desparate for user apps you could try look at the changelog and implement it yourself since at the baseline you only need minor changes

but for a proper pycord release they have to be more thorough

[wide acorn]

Okay thank you, its not that desparate. I'll stick around and look at the git commits if there are any for user apps.

[errant trout]

fair enough

(if you do want to prod around, for commands you mainly need to implement the integration_types and contexts attributes as per https://discord.com/developers/docs/interactions/application-commands#application-command-object-application-command-structure)

[wide acorn]

Yeah I've seen that already, maybe i'll try it later idk yet

[stray pasture]

As per the discord docs, the same route can have different rate limits based on its bucket and top level parameters

[errant trout]

The library dynamically handles ratelimits based on any 429 response, which if it receives it will attempt to retry automatically

So in general, you don't need to worry about them so long as you aren't pushing it too much

[stray pasture]

So if you are been rate limited, it will wait for the time mentionne by discord for all requests?

[errant trout]

The rest of the bot will continue to run

It'll wait for the specific ratelimited request to be available again before retrying

(Also note, you need minimum loglevel of WARNING to see ratelimits in console https://docs.pycord.dev/en/stable/logging.html)

[stray pasture]

In my case I do a add/remove a role to all member of a server. But if for one server only I get rate limited as guild_id is top level parameters, it will block all add/remove roles for all the other guilds ?

[errant trout]

No

If you want you can test it yourself with an example command

The ratelimit for changing a channel name is twice every 10 minutes - set your loglevel with the instructions I linked above, then make a command that changes the current channel's name

Try running it a few times and see the results for yourself

[stray pasture]

I see I will try ! Thank you

[sage tendon]

men and women, any better idea?

this just seems clunky

[lofty parcel]

I'd move text += chunk.text at the top of the condition

So you only have one

Otherwise, uh, looks fine ig I don't think you can get it any shorter

[sage tendon]

true

[fresh sierra]

Hello, i would like to know if its possible to have multiple sub command in the same class ?
for exemple :
group moderation
1 file with ban
1 file with lock
etc etc

[sage tendon]

i dont see why not

[fresh sierra]

but i dont know if its possible to do it

cos it will need to use the same cog in mutiple file (i thjink)

[sage tendon]

what

[fresh sierra]

if i want to create subcommand in different file

i will need to have the same cog in different file no ?

[sage tendon]

i dont know
your question said "same class" lol

[fresh sierra]

the class is a cog

and i dont think multicog are supported

[sage tendon]

yea and you said "same class" which would mean same file

[fresh sierra]

i will open a help thread i think to explain better

[candid garnet]

Hey guys, how to make that users can't iteract with my bot through DM's with it?

add a check if it is an dm

there are many ways to check that

[candid garnet]

Like this for example:

    if isinstance(ctx.channel, discord.DMChannel):
        return

[shell radish]

yeah

[candid garnet]

In a big picture:

@bot.slash_command(
    name="ping", 
    description="Check the bot's latency"
)
async def ping(ctx):
    # Check if the command is used in a DM
    if isinstance(ctx.channel, discord.DMChannel):
        return
    ```

[shell radish]

if you want to add a check to every command, you can use a decorator or add it to on_interaction

[fresh sierra]

i think there are a decorator no_dm

[candid garnet]

Is there? Could u refer me to the api docs? Thank you in advance

Searched in pycord

discord.SlashCommand.guild_only
discord.SlashCommandGroup.guild_only

[shell radish]

or @discord.guild_only

whichever one you prefer

you didn't clarify if you were using slash commands or text-based

so I was vague with my answer

[fresh sierra]

looking at his code, its slash

[shell radish]

I didn't know that on first interaction

and they proposed an equally correct solution

There was nothing wrong with it

If a user has a server nickname set, do i have to do member.user.display_name to get their non-server display name?

nevermind, it's member.global_name

[round heart]

I like str(Member), but that depends on your use case.

[sage tendon]

oh hell no

[round heart]

🤷‍♂️ I use that for moderation reports since A) Discord doesn't always resolve user tags, and B) if I'm reporting on a name, seeing what it was at the time is important.

[sage tendon]

what

literally just member.global_name lol

or member.name for the pomelo

[round heart]

If that works for you, go for it. I'm simply providing an alternate viewpoint. I don't know if you know this, but not everything people say is an adversarial attack on you.

[errant trout]

I think str(member) was more useful pre-pomelo because username#0000 was very widely used, but it's still nice after migration for showing both names as discord would when you resolve a member (obviously we can't just switch to @username)

How can i set the bot status to dnd with custom status

[sage tendon]

status=Status.dnd

lol

[frail ocean]

doesnt work

[sage tendon]

that is literally exactly how you do it

idk what to tell you lmao

(discord.Status.dnd obviously btw, i just imported status specifically)

[frail ocean]

Yeah i know its like that but it doesnt work

On custom status

[sage tendon]

works for me just fine

[tranquil thicket]

Getting an error like this AttributeError: module 'discord' has no attribute 'Bot'

[sage tendon]

do pip list in a cmd window and show us the output

[sage tendon]

uninstall discord.py

this is py-cord, not discord.py

[torpid cosmos]

correct! You seem to have both installed. Because both our package and discord.py use the discord namespace, you need to make sure only py-cord or discord.py is installed at a time

[tranquil thicket]

okay let me try

still the same issue

[torpid cosmos]

what command did you run to uninstall discord.py?

[frail ocean]

Can u send cde to me?

[tranquil thicket]

python3 -m pip uninstall discord.py

[sage tendon]

No

But i also tried the custom activities (as in, bot status) a few days ago, and it worked flawlessly
so
what even is the problem btw

[tranquil thicket]

discord.py is gone from my list as well

[torpid cosmos]

show us your pip list again? It looks like you have discord and discord.py there

[sage tendon]

run the same for discord
then run pip install py-cord

[torpid cosmos]

make sure both are gone

[tranquil thicket]

got it

[frail ocean]

await client.change_presence(activity=discord.Activity(type=discord.ActivityType.custom, status=discord.Status.do_not_disturb, state="💩 "))

That doesnt work

[tranquil thicket]

This is my list now ans still same issue...

[sage tendon]

just do it in your bot definition

and the status isnt part of the activity for al i know

[torpid cosmos]

now reinstall py-cord

uninstall then reinstall

[frail ocean]

Wdym?
