what is discord protos

stray yarrow
#

idk

#

unrelated

lapis dock
#

Im not really sure the issue here. As the code looks like it should work. Could you try downgrading to py-cord 2.6

stray yarrow
deft kestrel
#

why buttons are not permanent like as default? there's no way to be permanent to default?

sage tendon
#

"by default" no

#

but it takes little changes

deft kestrel
sage tendon
#

Because it's not the default

#

that simple

deft kestrel
#

got it

lapis dock
#

it would take up a bunch of bot memory if people never properly closed them

deft kestrel
#

so i wanna make them default without using the PersistentBot()

sage tendon
#

well then make your views persistent
pass no timeout to the super constructor, run bot.add_view(Your view()) in on ready and give your buttons custom IDs

#

(timeout=None)

lapis dock
stray yarrow
#

it doesnt happen when 1 command group is in a cog

#

but only whenever there is another

lapis dock
#

oh that is strange. I guess just split up your command groupd then because we dont have a better solution

sage tendon
#

seems like a bug report waiting to happen

I am trying to create a simple slash command to ping a specific role in a server
how to I get the bot to actually ping the role instead of printing the name of the role (without the ping)
thanks

@sage tendon Command Choice in Py-cord bridge command??

#

BridgeOption??

#

or what

#

@errant trout i'm correct ??

errant trout
#

BridgeOption is correct yes

keen relic

#

Dont ping people for support please.

sage tendon
#

imagine reading the docs

fresh sierra
#

that man was panicked, 2 ping, 6 ?, i hope it was not a matter of live

round heart
#

Dumb question. In this example, the checks uses .predicate. Is that required for all types of checks, like commands.has_permissions(kick_members=True), or is that statement enough?

#

Hm. Well I can confirm that .predicate doesn't actually restrict it. Let's see if removing that has any effect.

#

I cannot seem to get this to work, btw. Dunno if you've ever personally modified a command like this that we can compare notes.

# 
moderation_group = SlashCommandGroup("mod", "Moderation Tools and Settings", checks=[commands.has_permissions(kick_members=True)])

This doesn't prevent people without the kick_members permission from seeing the slash commands, like the previous conversation suggested.

lapis dock
#

default_permissions is separate from checks and has_permissions
It is its own kwarg that you pass a permissions object to I believe.

#

default_member_permissions is the correct name i guess

#

default_member_permissions=Permissions(kick_members=True) instead of checks=...

round heart
#

You only need Permissions(...), not commands.has_permissions?

lapis dock
#

correct

#

commands.has_permissions is the check that is preformed bot side only
Where default_member_permissions is sent to discord upon command registration, so discord enforces it

round heart
#

Yay. there we go; some sensical restrictions until being able to change the Integration. Thanks for the sanity check.

wide jasper
#

HI

#

how to use @bot.user_command in cogs

lapis dock
#

When you say user_command
are you talking about user installs or when you right click on a user and can select a command from the list?

wide jasper
lapis dock
#

It should be the same as other commands in a cog
@discord.user_command()

wide jasper
#

okay

#

i will try it out

lapis dock
#

the callback just takes 1 argument of user (after self and ctx)

wide jasper
#

yeah makes sense, thank you

coral snow
#

i saw this example, and i wondered how to use it in a cog, because it requires the argument self

def is_me():
def predicate(ctx):
return ctx.message.author.id == 85309593344815104
return commands.check(predicate)

@bot.command()
@is_me()
async def only_me(ctx):
await ctx.send('Only you!')

sage tendon
#

@staticmethod

#

as decorator

coral snow
# sage tendon @staticmethod

i tried this now:

import discord
from discord.ext import commands
from globalsupport import emoji, colour
from datetime import *
import os

class BanListenerCog(commands.Cog):
    def __init__(self, bot):
        self.bot = bot
        self.team_role_id = 919707797208305666 
    
    @staticmethod
    def has_serverteam_role(self):
        def predicate(ctx):
            return self.team_role_id in [role.id for role in ctx.author.roles]
        return commands.check(predicate)
    
    @commands.Cog.listener()
    async def on_message(self, message):
        ..........
            

    @discord.user_command(guild_ids=[], name="addSperre")
    @has_serverteam_role()
    #@commands.has_permissions(administrator=True)
    async def addSperre(self, ctx, member: discord.Member):
        await ctx.respond(f"{emoji().success} {ctx.author.mention}, test test", ephemeral=True)
            

def setup(bot):
    bot.add_cog(BanListenerCog(bot))
#

but i get 'staticmethod' object is not callable

Does pycord supports the Guild subscriptions of the monetization category of Discord API ? referenced here

echo wraith
flat wind
# echo wraith Yes I believe

sadly I saw there is a PR for the 2.7 about this implementation.
And without much tests because plun1331 does not have a verified app or can't in his country

lapis dock
#

Lala gave him perms for a test bot. Idk if he ever got around to testing it though

#

@edgy nest Did you test that PR? ^

edgy nest

#

Can I distinguish between a scheduled event that was deleted by a member and one that was completed (and essentially removed automatically).

I'm only seeing on_scheduled_event_delete (and possibly on_scheduled_event_update), not sure how they react in those two cases.

sage tendon
#

I'd just check if the event's end time is within 1 or 2 seconds of now and if that's the case, its most likely just normally completed

#

or actually, maybe once its normally completed its updated and you can check its status

#

not really sure, never used events myself

errant trout
#

status is the answer, yes

civic moon
#

I'm a bit confused and intrigued. I'm storing current event ids with guild.events. That doesn't pull completed events though, only ones that are still upcoming (or active I believe). So does this imply I can reference a completed event, that doesn't pull from guild.events? Hopefully referenced via event id.

sage tendon
#

You just wanna compare if a completed event matches an event ID you stored right?

civic moon
#

Yeap, looks like I can check if a event ID was cancelled or completed (which is awesome). I just assumed if it was no longer in guild.events it was gone and couldn't be referenced (seems like I assumed wrong, which is awesome).

Now I just need to see if on_scheduled_event_delete triggers cancelled or completed.

errant trout
#

delete is for actual deletions, almost certainly not the other two

#

if you can't find them in the events cache, consider fetching them using guild.fetch_scheduled_events

#

(the library attempts to cache them where possible, but it's not guaranteed)

civic moon
#

Hmm, if that's the case maybe I could use the fact that it can't be found at all, it was manually deleted.

Maybe on_scheduled_event_update triggers to check cancelled or completed.

errant trout
#

mhm

civic moon
#

Awesome thanks for your help. This will work then. Would of took a butt load of testing to parse this out.

modern trail
#

am I crazy or can you not include a timestamp (eg. <t:0:f>) in an embed?

sage tendon
#

depends where

modern trail
#

i'd like to put it in the value of a field. but i can't seem to get it to work anywhere

#

i also want to put it in the embed description

sage tendon
#

should work in the description at least

#

field not sure

modern trail
#

well i'm just literally seeing <t:0:f> instead of <t:0:f>

sage tendon
#

show the embed

modern trail
#

oh i'm dumb

#

lol

sage tendon
#

you cant put comma values lol

modern trail
#

i forgot to convert to an integer

#

i should get more sleep

#

thanks for being my rubber duck

sage tendon
#

lol i was literally just thinking about the rubber duck thing cause of this

Hey all, qq about how slash commands refresh, I have a slash command with options option_a and option_b, if I update the description of the options I see it reflected immediately upon discord refresh, but if I change option_a to Option1 it doesn't refresh
I'm assuming this has something to do with how they're being stored in discord, is there a way to update the options within a command? or do I need to make a brand new one?

sage tendon
#

show your code

zealous prism
#

nvm I figured it out right as I sent the screenshot

sage tendon
#

you dont need the name option in the slash command decorator btw

#

and you dont need an option type if its str

fresh sierra
#

I mean they don’t need to add the type hint inside the decorator since they already put it inside the register

sage tendon
#

what

#

no, you do, else you dont get proper autocomplete inside the funciton

fresh sierra
sage tendon
#

no

fresh sierra
#

Try and see

sage tendon
#

i know how it works

#

i use my brain

fresh sierra
#

If using only the type hint from the command definition and I have every type hint working fine

#

Apparently u don’t by thinking decorator needs it

sage tendon
#

yea now you edited the message and it means the opposite

fresh sierra
#

I mean I just change twitch to hint

#

And add decorator for more context which is kinda not needed cos what can it be else than the decorator

fresh sierra
# zealous prism

to be clear about the decorator and type

    @discord.option(name="test", type=discord.Role, description="")
    async def test(self, ctx: discord.ApplicationContext, test):

is the same as

    @discord.option(name="test", description="")
    async def test(self, ctx: discord.ApplicationContext, test: discord.Role):

but you lose the autocomplete so the 2nd is better and it useless to have both typehint (except you want it for u)

elder wolf
#

where can i see the differences between discord.py and pycord?

little cobalt
elder wolf
tidal vessel
elder wolf
#

oh fr?

#

when did it stop receiving updates

lofty parcel
#

d.py stopped when interactions were introduced

#

Then Danny resumed its maintenance

#

Since interactions, the implementation between d.py and pycord is different

shell radish
lofty parcel
#

Oh really? I remember him yapping about slash commands

#

But makes sense for intents

shell radish
#

yeah, but slash commands and other interactions were introduced nearly a year prior

#

albeit early versions

fossil valve
#

is it possible to only show specific members in a slash command discord.Member option or do I need to use autocomplete?

fresh sierra
deft kestrel
#

is it possible to stream my Desktop audio to a voice chat?

shell radish
#

Are you talking about through a bot into the vc or from your discord app to the vc?

deft kestrel
sage tendon
#

at that point just use watch together

round heart
#

Anyone know offhand whether animated emoji can be set to a Button's emoji property? I would think yes but worth asking

shell radish
round heart
#

One thing that would be great for the Guide is some sort of visual of what's targeted with interaction.edit, interaction.edit_original_response and interaction.edit_original_message 😵‍💫

#

And is interaction.response.edit_message (as printed in the Guide) the same as interaction.edit_original_message?

errant trout
#

no

#

anything under interaction.response is a direct response to an interaction (also, edit_original_message is deprecated in favor of edit_original_response)

#

edit_original_response is essentially a regular message edit

sage tendon
#

i still think something like interaction.response_handler would be a better name

#

it keeps confusing me, the fact that its called response

errant trout
#

meh

round heart
errant trout
#

just use interaction.respond and interaction.edit, it handles the logic for you

#

(same usage as ctx.respond and ctx.edit, these were added in 2.5 or so)

round heart
errant trout
#

guide PRs are always welcome (or even just raising an issue, if you don't want to change it yourself)

wild prairie
#

How can I get a message sent before the bot restarts (sent by the bot) to edit it? I understand it has to do with the cache and that for reactions, you have to use the raw event instead, but what about for editing?

sage tendon
#

just fetch the message

wild prairie
#

oh wait, hold on. I think I'm using the wrong channel ID

wild prairie
little cobalt
wild prairie
sage tendon
#

no, it would just be None

wild prairie
#

Hmm, how can I use fetch_message without knowing the channel?

sage tendon
#

no

#

afaik

#

just save the channel id

wild prairie
#

Ok, thanks

#

If i pass a message url instead of a message ID, is there a way to parse that directly in pycord or should I just split by backslash (or url parsing)?

sage tendon
#

Why do you have the message link lol

wild prairie
sage tendon
#

yea but just save the channel and message ID then

#

idk why you have the link

wild prairie
sage tendon
#

im still confused lol

#

just save the IDs to a db

wild prairie
#

If I was planning this in advance, I would. But the messages have already been sent. Tens, months ago.

errant trout
sage tendon
#

ah

wild prairie
#

Whatever, it's fine. I pass a channel and message ID to the bot and it works

wild prairie
sage tendon
#

TIL

wild prairie
errant trout
#

eh

#

what's the url format for those anyway

edgy nest
#

<#1132206148309749830 message>

#

channel/thread/message prob

errant trout
#

eh it's just guildid/threadid/messageid, but i guess get_channel might fail for forum threads...?

wild prairie
#

It seems to be the same format, but I think the middle is the forum thread instead of channel

errant trout
#

did you get an error

edgy nest
#

oh guild

wild prairie
errant trout
#

is that the thread id

#

or the forum id

edgy nest
#

thread id imagine

errant trout
#

mmmmm if it's stuck at the thread then there's no way around it on converter unless it's patched separately

#

butttttt you can use the related functions to parse the IDs anyway

#

(in the long run you might find it more useful to just write your own regex, whatever works)

edgy nest
#

this is probably worth it to fix

#

even though its ext.commands

errant trout
#

yeah i'm inclined to agree

wild prairie
#

Is there a way to pass a message with newlines to a slash command (without modals)?

sage tendon
#

only on mobile i think

#

but not sure if it actually carries it over

wild prairie
robust ginkgo
#

Is there a better alternative to on_interaction? I need to run some code before every slash command/componenet that is used. (I.e. checking if there is a cooldown, checking if the command/component is disabled, etc.)

Screenshot_2024-09-20_at_15.50.19.png
torn barn
#

cooldowns raise exceptions, if a component is disabled then it would not allow it to be interacted with in the first place, to check whether the command is disabled then use a custom check

arctic plover
#

how do I put a file in embed.set_image()?

errant trout
robust ginkgo
errant trout
#

for command cooldowns there is a built in system which you can see in examples

errant trout
sly karmaBOT
robust ginkgo
errant trout
#

hmmmmmm

#

does that not have the command id...?

#

interaction.data should have an ID nelothink

robust ginkgo
errant trout
#

i'd say either:

  • use on_application_command instead
  • if you have to use on_interaction, run await bot.get_application_context(interaction) and then access ctx.command nvm that doesn't work
#

tl;dr just use on_application_command to save you the headache, then handle components in on_interaction

robust ginkgo
#

And last question, how do I have the command or button stop running within on_application_command or in on_interaction

arctic plover
# errant trout .tag local-file 
preview = discord.File('C:/path/preview.jpg', filename='live_preview.jpg')
game_icon = discord.File('C:/path/game_icon.jpg', filename='live_game_icon.jpg')
embed.set_image(url='attachment://live_preview.jpg')
embed.set_thumbnail(url='attachment://live_game_icon.jpg')

what`s wrong?

@fossil valve You get the audit logs for around then the channel was created and there you can maybe find who created it. Idk if that works but yeah

is there an argument to be able to get some slash commands to work only with the users I have here ? I want to make some commands only available for me for beta version

fresh sierra
robust ginkgo
#

Why doesn't on_application_command or on_interaction run before the command is executed?

errant trout
#

they do, but they are listeners

#

or, well let me phrase differently, ultimately they are just events

#

if you make them as listeners, they won't intercept anything - you'd have to override the original events

how do I fetch a message with a message id with a user bot?

fresh sierra
fickle salmon
#

it's a message the bot sent

fresh sierra
#

User bot => user app ?

fickle salmon
#

yes

fresh sierra
#

Since they don’t have access to the channel I don’t see how u can fetch a message since to fetch a message u also need a channel

sage tendon
#

id still reckon you cant

fresh sierra
#

Maybe you can implement a cache system to get each message of ur bot in case you really need

fickle salmon
#

I need to edit the message the bot sent

fresh sierra
fickle salmon
#

after a restart?

#

I'm storing the id in a db

fresh sierra
#

Maybe store it as an object for then u can use it again

#

Never really used user app but as far as I know it’s just limited asf

lofty parcel
#

Store channel and message ID.

#

Then you can do partials

do I need guild id?

Partial Objects

These can be used to make API calls when you have channel id and/or message id, and you don't want to rely on the cache to have their objects.

Methods which can be used on them are

  • Partial Messageable (analogous to a Channel) - Docs
  • Partial Message (analogous to a Message) - Docs

Example Usage:

async def star_message(channel_id: int, message_id: int):
    # Get Partial Messageable object
    partial_channel = bot.get_partial_messageable(channel_id)

    # Get Partial Message
    partial_message = partial_channel.get_partial_message(message_id)

    # Add a reaction
    await partial_message.add_reaction(":star:")

I'm confused why it's giving you forbidden

yes

It is the bot's own message right

Can the bot see the channel? Idk if that gives you issues

#

it's the bots own message yes

try using edit_original_response

As that uses the interactions endpoint rather than /channels/.../messages/...

You should first send the response and then edit it

Alternatively you can switch the responses

Respond editing the message and send an ephemeral followup

and the idea is that the first embed is edited

await interaction.response.edit_message(embed=..., view=self)

Having trouble reading Option handling. I see choices= can be a list when name and value are the same, but for name/value pairs, can choices= be a k:v dict, or must it be a list of OptionChoice(name, value)?

#

ah, nm, I should've read the docstrings (doesn't seem that's supported; might make a PR cuz I like being lazy)

errant trout
#

or just [OptionChoice(name=k, value=v for k, v in dict.items())]

Yeah, realized I was doing that in one part of my code. But would be nice to be able to directly pass it in. Because again, lazy. Pycord should do everything I want in the least amount of userspace code 😛

Mapping the Choices @errant trout

#

it can be possible??

errant trout
#

use OptionChoice

keen relic
#

ok

errant trout
#

it takes a name which shows on the UI, and a value which is recieved in the variable

#

so you can have different names with the same value

keen relic
round heart
#

You could also use an Autocomplete, so if someone does type 'sol', it would direct them to the de facto "Solana" entry. You'd also be able to create a mapping that way

Gotta learn to search the docs yourself. "Autocomplete" is pretty specific.

summer knot
#

How can I make a mention(role or user) but without notifying those of the mention?

errant trout
#

either:

  • allowedmentions (normal message, no mention, no notification)
  • silent (visible mention/highlight, but no notification)
  • embed
summer knot
errant trout
#

then just set silent=True in your send function

summer knot
errant trout
#

(this is the same as adding @silent to the start of your message in discord)

summer knot
errant trout
#

for ctx.respond it doesn't exist, but i think the default behavior in respond is to not mention anyway

#

if you want to be safe, you just set allowed_mentions=discord.AllowedMentions.none()

summer knot
errant trout
#

oh the reply mention

summer knot
errant trout
#

uhhhh

#

wait that isn't respond though

#

it's just a reply

#

or are you using bridge

summer knot
errant trout
#

for replies, set mention_author=False

summer knot
errant trout
#

you must be using bridge no?

summer knot
#

but in other commands yes

errant trout
#

huh

#

but ctx.respond doesn't exist for prefix commands

summer knot
errant trout
#

ah

#

i guess using the bridge bot forces all ctx to use bridge versions regardless?

errant trout
summer knot
errant trout
#

no uh

summer knot
errant trout
#

i mean that if you use bridge.Bot, it'll force Context to BridgeExtContext even if it's not a bridge command

#

which is why you can use ctx.respond in a normal prefix command

summer knot
#

I didn't know that curious fact

errant trout
#

neither

summer knot
errant trout
#

as long as it's a regular channel.send or message.reply etc.

Is there a nice way i can stop mypy from complaining when declaring arguments to a command? For example:

Gives the following error:

Incompatible default for argument "argument" (default has type "Option", argument has type "str") Mypy(assignment)
sage tendon
#

dont use the typehint way, use the @option decorator

#

also you're doing it wrong lol, you'd have to typehint it as option, not set the option as the default value

#

(still use the decorator)

I coppied an pasted the example code from the pycode website to try it and start editing, and it's not working in discord. I've made sure discord.py is uninstalled and that i have py-cord not pycord installed and the bot has admin perms in the discord. The command does nothing though

import discord
import os # default module
from dotenv import load_dotenv

load_dotenv() # load all the variables from the env file
bot = discord.Bot(intents=discord.Intents.default())

@bot.event
async def on_ready():
print(f"{bot.user} is ready and online!")

@bot.slash_command(name="hello", description="Say hello to the bot")
async def hello(ctx: discord.ApplicationContext):
await ctx.respond("Hey!")

round heart
#

It is completely stupid that Discord doesn't allow emoji for Options
Edit: It is also completely stupid that you can't have autocomplete for Selects. There needs to be parity between Options and Selects since you can't accept an arbitrary number of entries.

That is all.

Hello, how can I make the buttons and menu selector (view) work even after a bot restart?

lapis dock
#

.tag persistent

sly karmaBOT
#

The Issue

When you send a message with a view, button for example
if your bot restarts, you will lose the ability to use this button.

How To Fix This

  1. Set your view timeout to None
  • By default, the view timeout value is set to 300 seconds
  1. Pass a custom_id value to the view
  • Custom ids must be unique
  • Chose a custom id that has a meaning in relation to your view
  1. Add the view to the bot
  • You can use the method Bot.add_view(YourViewClass())
  • Make sure to add the view when the bot begin ready
rugged lodgeBOT
#

Here's the persistent example.

lapis dock
#

Start with these and we can help if you have further questions:)

glossy tide
#

ooh ok thanks i only have to put a custom_id and add the view to the bot

#

(timeout=None is already done)

round heart
#

I forget -- A single Embed description has a limit of 4096 characters, can I split that up into two embeds in the same message, or is that essentially a message limit?

lapis dock
#

You can have up to 10 embeds in a message with all characters adding up to 6000

round heart
#

6K, gotcha. Thank you

round heart
lapis dock
#

I don't believe so

round heart
#

len(embed) seems to work, at least; gives a starting point.

the service_autocomplete func correctly returns a list of OptionChoice

sage tendon
#

Make sure you arent running your bot twice

frail basin

I am not.

#

The autocomplete is running multiple API calls and DB queries, could time be an issue here?

frail basin
#

After doing some testing, it does indeed raise the unknown interaction error.

lofty parcel
frail basin
#

I know.

#

However, I assume there is no defer for autocomplete interactions?

shell radish
#

nope

lapis dock
#

Does your caching work?
I think that interaction.id will be different for each autocomplete call so your cacheing will never actually be used

frail basin
#

Oh actually, I messed up the caching dictionary

#

yeah

#

I switched it to the user id and it works now. The first call fails but oh well.

#

Thanks.

Yeah, that is very common for autocomplete

is there a difference between sending it as a discord.File object vs discord.EmbedMedia?

sage tendon

make sure the filename is exactly right

and just send it as file, never seen embedmedia personally

jolly shuttle
#

unless there are size restrictions for the embed image

#

i will try the same image on https:// instaead of attachment:// and see if it will embed then

sage tendon
#

well, show your code

jolly shuttle
# 
    channel = ctx.channel  
    filename = f"{ctx.author.name} & {member.name}.png"
    file = discord.File(f"images/{filename}", filename=f"{filename}")
    embed = discord.Embed()
    embed.set_image(url=f"attachment://{filename}")
    await channel.send(file=file, embed=embed)
sage tendon
#

weird

jolly shuttle
#

i thought maybe a banner has to be specific dimensions

little cobalt
sage tendon
#

maybe the file name?

jolly shuttle
#

spaces

sage tendon
#

try remove the ampersand

jolly shuttle
#

okay

sage tendon
#

and spaces too maybe yea

jolly shuttle
#

good guess cause i assume the spaces automatically convert to %20

little cobalt
#

instead of the space use _

jolly shuttle
#

tested 3 cases:
❎ no space
❎ no ampersand
✅ no space and no ampersand

sage tendon
#

you're not done yet :)

#

i'm not sure what .name even maps to anymore, but if it's NOT the "account" name, then you also have to watch out for spaces there

jolly shuttle
#

spaces are allowed in display names and not usernames right?

sage tendon
#

yea

#

but from what i see in the docs, .name is the account name

#

aka no spaces there

#

so all good

jolly shuttle
#

well i was planning to use the display name but that will only be inside the image..

#

cool thanks guys

#

say i want to contribute somehow. what makes more sense.. do more research and find out the test fail cases (or look in the code to see if its obvious) and edit the docs or include some kind of raised error in the actual code / type checking or whatever warns my ide of improper syntax before the code is run

sage tendon
#

i mean it's not really a bug or anything

jolly shuttle
#

shouldn't the ampersand and the spaces been converted to %20 and %26 url encoding?

sage tendon
#

and they probably are

#

but that makes it not match the filename anymore

fresh sierra
#

idk if its that

sage tendon
#

we already fixed it

fresh sierra
#

mb then

jolly shuttle
#

i broke my general rule of don't f with spaces w/ filenames

sage tendon
#

the file names werent the issue

jolly shuttle
#

how so?

sage tendon
#

the URL was the issue because it replaces the spaces

jolly shuttle
#

ampersand made it fail too

sage tendon
#

same thing

There is no additional way to IP ban someone. It just depends on what discord does by default

i remember you can run commands through mentioning the bot without message intents, is it not possible anymore?

#

anyways is it possible to invoke application commands?

fresh sierra
#

if u <ant pprerix and slash iu can use bridghe

eternal kite
#

bridge?

fresh sierra
#

yes

eternal kite
fresh sierra
#

process message

#

(if its a command

#

and if the comand exist

eternal kite
#

for instance, @bot <user1> profile <user2> will invoke the application command profile with the ctx author being user1

fresh sierra
#

that's not possible since the contect is given by the message

#

and not the author

eternal kite
#

it should be possible if parameters can be passed into the invoke_application_command

fresh sierra
#

ctx.author will never be different than the author of the message

eternal kite
fresh sierra
#

because the context is given by the message

#

you can edit the message object and then process it

#

it will be easier

#

(if its possible)

#

like message.author = ..., await process message(message)

eternal kite
#

basically this is the code i wrote two years ago, and it works fine for message commands back then

right now idk how to make it work for application command

to invoke an invoke_application_command i think you need to have an interation

#

so i dont see how with a message content u will be able to trigger an application command

#

or you mean do /command @user image

#

and it will use @user as an author for the image app command

eternal kite
#

so i have to make the command triggered by slash command, so i can get the application ctx?

fresh sierra
#

so yes you will need that

#

but if i understand ur trying to make a command to run another command changing the command author ?

eternal kite
#

what if creating an application context myself?

eternal kite
fresh sierra
eternal kite
#

it's a lot more complicated than simply changing the author

fresh sierra
#

like that's how discord works

#

maybe overwrite the command invoke to do ur change on the ctx there

eternal kite
#

btw shouldn't this be ApplicationContext?

image.png
#

how long does it require for new slash command to register?

sage tendon
#

instant, but you need to restart discord

lapis dock
#

ctrl + r works too

eternal kite
#

how do i get the command entered including the arguments from application context?

#

ctx.message returns None and ctx.command only returns the command

sage tendon
#

you use options

#

check the guide on Slash commands please

errant trout
sage tendon
#

oh i thought they meant options in general oops

errant trout
eternal kite
#

but i just couldn't figure out how to make it in slash commands

errant trout
#

you have to trigger it from some sort of interaction, either another slash command or a component such as a button

#

to modify stuff, you edit ctx.interaction (e.g. reassign ctx.interaction.user)

eternal kite
#

yeah i made the command a slash command but it still wouldn't work

errant trout
#

if it's the method you used in the screenshot, of course not

eternal kite
#

i am still figuring out how to pass the arguments to invoke

errant trout
#

it's because invoke_application_command runs entirely on context which has the args filled separately

#

you could just call the command's function manually instead

eternal kite
#

oh

#

let me try that rq

#

but i would need a dispatcher to show which command i am calling?

#

nvm i got it working, but i still have to find a way to pass the args

image.png
sage tendon
#

use respond() with slash commands

eternal kite
#

is reply deprecated?

sage tendon
#

its not for slash commands

eternal kite
#

oh

errant trout
sage tendon
#

genuine question what is the plan here

errant trout
#

sudo command that can run any command as any user

sage tendon
#

that seems like it cant work with slash

#

or well
only artificially

errant trout
#

it can GuraShrug it's significantly easier to just call the function directly though, instead of going through invoke

sage tendon
#

yea i'm wondering that too

#

there's nothing to gain with that

errant trout
#

well, going through invoke makes the library treat it like a normal command call and goes through all the events and checks properly

eternal kite
errant trout
#

why

eternal kite
#

otherwise how would i convert str inputs into command functions

errant trout
#

just use get_application_command

#

(also autocomplete can list the commands out nicely)

#

using invoke won't help with your options because it relies on raw interaction conversions that discord would do for you

eternal kite
#

wait i can call the application command function directly?

#

so whats the point of having invoke command

sage tendon
#

that's basically what nelo is saying lol

errant trout
#

invoke does all the necessary conversions that discord gave the client, and then calls the function at the end

#

look at the last link i posted, that's what it has to deal with

eternal kite
#

alr

errant trout
#

assuming you're the only one using the sudo command, you handle the conversions yourself and just make sure you're doing the correct inputs that would safely pass any validation

eternal kite
#

i dont wanna hard code and manually convert everything though

errant trout
#

GuraShrug you gotta

#

even if you were to use the invoke function, you'd have to manually recreate the interaction dict that holds options

eternal kite
errant trout
#

do you really need an all-round sudo command, or do you only need it for one or two commands?

eternal kite
errant trout
#

then you got a lotta manual work in store

#

well

#

if you want the quickest way, probably:
0. Decide how you're parsing the command string

  1. in your command, get the original command and check all the option types (Command.options -> Option.input_type)
  2. use CONVERTER_MAPPING from ext.commands to map the option type to a converter
  3. use the converter and pray it works
#

then just call i guess

eternal kite
#

converter_mapping? i cant find it in the docs

errant trout
#

because it isn't

#

from discord.ext.commands.converter import CONVERTER_MAPPING havefun

eternal kite
#

great

errant trout
#

(don't bother for string/int/bool/float etc, this is for discord models)

sage tendon
#

and i thought luma was already too deep in the library

errant trout
#

luma fucks with the library at a relatively surface level because he wants it to work with his own classes and models

#

(which isn't necessarily bad, but at that point you have to forgo regular help requests because most helpers aren't digging through the lib)

sage tendon

2 things.
discord.Guild is a class, not an instance. You should use an instance of discord.Guild
fetch_member is a coroutine, which needs to be prefixed with an await keyword

Sometimes you want to keep libraries from polluting system installs or use a different version of libraries than the ones installed on the system. You might also not have permissions to install libraries system-wide. For this purpose, the standard library as of Python 3.3 comes with a concept called “Virtual Environment”s to help maintain these separate versions.

Just to be sure can you show your entire pip list

That looks fine. Like zery said try downgrading to a stable version 2.6.1. I can help more later

summer scroll
#

I had the same problem on the stable version tho, but I thought that upgrading could help

#

apparently no

#

maybe the problem is the way I use poll?

@summer scroll uninstall py-cord and reinstall it

sage tendon
#

bruh lmfao

fresh sierra
sage tendon
#

they already changed the version, thats basically a reinstall

fresh sierra
summer scroll
#

ok well found the problem

#

for some reasons, the systemctl that start the bot use a wrong version of python, even if I specified python3:

[Unit]
Description=MonkeyLand - Lancement de main.py au démarrage
After=network.target


[Service]
WorkingDirectory=/srv/Monke-Land

COULD it be like a cache problem?

#

you might just have multiple python installations

#

somehow, idk

@willow dune did you fix it?

frail basin
#

Is there a way to force discord not to cache autocomplete values?

sage tendon
#

doubt it

#

never knew it does at all, but if you say so i guess it does

lapis dock
#

Do you mean it just caches them if you gave it values but then you dont respond in time for the next call?

willow dune
frail basin
#

I wanted to respond with an empty list to prevent it from failing, but then send the correct autocomplete for the same input later

sage tendon
sage tendon
lapis dock
sage tendon
#

if you take longer than 3 seconds? to respond to autocomplete, you are doing something wrong

lapis dock
#

If you really want just reply with ["Loading..."]

sage tendon
#

but you cant like, "follow up" without the user changing inputs

#

or can you

#

because for all i know autocomplete is also a type of interaction that can only have one response

frail basin
#

I meant:
" " -> "a" -> " "

#

It caches the first response for the " " input

#

so refreshing it by typing in it will still show "loading..."

sage tendon
#

ah
yea you can't prevent that cause its probably done on the client

#

and typically if you type the same thing, the results dont change

Yeah, got the token from there. The bot goes online, but doesn't recognize any commands.

i feel like the issue is somewhere there

lapis dock
#

I think you enabled activities on the dev portal and that is breaking it becaue syou dont have a command for activites

sage tendon
#

yea

lapis dock
sage tendon
#

how do you even do that? I suspected something like that buti couldn't find it

#

ah

frail basin
lapis dock
lapis dock
willow dune
#

Thank you both, I didn't realize that it could be the Discord app's activity, I thought you meant if the bot was in an activity. Disabling activities from the Discord app's setting fixed it.

lapis dock
#

👍 If you are planning on using activities you just have to get that far in the code before enabling in the dev portal

frail basin
sage tendon
#

This is a typical nitpick of mine but why are you typehinting variables when you could just typehint the return type of the functions

frail basin
#

I actually did that about 15 seconds ago so you can see that it returns a list

#

They are all typehinted

image.png
sage tendon
#

ah ok

#

all good then :>

frail basin
#

I might just need to micro optimize it until I can get it down to under 3 seconds.

lapis dock
#

depending on the size of your services you can improve this by not calculating the entire list and then limiting it to 25. Rather stop the for loop once it finds 25 items.

frail basin
#

True, thanks.

sage tendon
#

This might be entirely unfeasible and stupid but since you basically run 3 things, what about threads

frail basin
#

I am currently in the process of checking how many API calls I make on average.

#

Since this bot will be running on the same machine as one of the APIs, I expect a significant performance increase from that.

lapis dock
#

Re reading your question:
I dont think that it is possible to respond again if a user types /command option:hi really fast before you can load the values for option. And then does not type again. If you cant get it below 3 seconds. I would add "Please keep typing" to the results of the autocomplete or in the option description.

sage tendon
#

just wondering but about how many options do you typically return

frail basin
#

So it turns out the culprit was attrs.define?

#

This doesnt sound right...

#

Thats the only thing I changed and I managed to get everything down to 1.21 seconds, with the same data

lapis dock
#

Do keep in mind i think DBs have caches so that if you are calling the same data a bunch it might get slightly faster as well ¯_(ツ)_/¯

frail basin
#

I am using docker compose with mariadb so I doubt that keeps its cache between restarts

frail basin
sage tendon
frail basin
#

Using @attrs.define is 0.5s slower than a class with only an __init__ constructor.

#

This is most likely due to the number of instances it has to create of said class.

sage tendon
#

can you show that? never seen it before
