[cerulean laurel]

?

[sage tendon]

thats the method i constantly say should be removed. its stupid, abuses how python is supposed to work, and just causes issues

[sage tendon]

role.mention

read the docs

[lofty parcel]

.rtfm Role.mention

[sly karma]

2 results

discord.Role.mention
discord.Role.mentionable

[fresh sierra]

Il pretty sure it should not be = but :

[red crypt]

we also do it for avoiding the channel limit, we have reached the limit of channels already

[sage tendon]

there's a limit??

[frail basin]

500 iirc

[fresh sierra]

with 50 per category

how can an option name be None ?

shouldnt it be by default the parameter name ?

    name: :class:`str`
        The name of this option visible in the UI.
        Inherits from the variable name if not provided as a parameter.

so here option.name shouldnt only be type str ? since if its not the option name it should be the parameter name

[frail basin]

probably set later

[fresh sierra]

not even (for what i can see)

[frail basin]

well it has to get set somewhere

[fresh sierra]

when i look for self.name = , there is only this line

so i dont really know from where else it can be set

[echo wraith]

It's set from kwarg name probably

Or smth like that

[errant trout]

SlashCommand._parse_options

[fresh sierra]

so it will never be None but its typehint as None because its set in the parse option which first create the option and then set the var if None

[errant trout]

it will be never be None after the Option's parent SlashCommand is initalized

strictly speaking, you could just make an Option at random that never has name set

[fresh sierra]

looking at the code for option its a bit spaghetti imo, lets see how its gonna be in v3

[errant trout]

most of v2 command stuff is pretty spaghetti yeah

[eternal kite]

btw does on_application_command runs after the command is finished/before/while the command is running?

i assume on_application_command won't block the command function from responding right?

[fresh sierra]

on_application_command -> when triggered
on_application_command_complete -> when successfully finished
on_application_command_error -> when unsuccessfully finished

[eternal kite]

so they run at the same time, if i have a bunch of code in on_application_command, will it affect the responding time of my command?

[fresh sierra]

they run in parallel

so it does not wait for any of those

only check and before will run before

[silk spire]

^ events are scheduled and called as async tasks

[lofty parcel]

If you override the actual event to do the stuff, then it will affect

It's best to use a listener which runs in parallel

[eternal kite]

on_application_command is a listener no?

[lofty parcel]

If you use @bot.event, you're overriding the one from the library

[eternal kite]

and if for instance I'm adding await asyncio.sleep(1000) in the on_application_command, it will affect the command running too?

[fresh sierra]

no

[lofty parcel]

If its a listener, then no

[eternal kite]

@bot.event is a listener wdym

[fresh sierra]

do @bot.listen(

[eternal kite]

oh

so @bot.event does affect?

[fresh sierra]

bot.event will overwrite the default one, while the other one will not

[eternal kite]

im asking about the performance, because my bot is thinking a lot before the commamd responds

[fresh sierra]

you can use
@bot.listen
async def on_application_command

and make sure you have no blocking code usage, like pillow, sync database etc

if you want me to check for any blocking code, feel free to share it

.tag paste

[sly karma]

Please copy and paste your code here. This makes it easier for everyone helping you.

[eternal kite]

it's alr my bot have too much stuff going on

[fresh sierra]

as you want

but if your bot is not answer at all for some time its usally blocking cod

[eternal kite]

it's fast sometimes and slow sometimes

[fresh sierra]

then it should be blocking code

because when a blocking code is running it makes all ur bot stop

[eternal kite]

yeah ive made all image manipulation function run in executor

[fresh sierra]

maybe you have somthing else

do you open any file ?

[eternal kite]

no just image file

[fresh sierra]

or use sqlit3

[sage tendon]

just as a note, running stuff in an executor won't make it any faster

[eternal kite]

async motor for mongodb

[eternal kite]

at least it won't block my code

[fresh sierra]

no time.sleep too ?

[eternal kite]

nah ofc not lol

[sage tendon]

yea but so you're saying even "light" commands take long?

[eternal kite]

nope, light commands are fast

[little cobalt]

uhm

.tag motor

[sly karma]

Tag not found.

[sage tendon]

then I don't see the issue

[little cobalt]

.tag mongodb

[sly karma]

MongoDB is a NoSQL database that stores data as documents in BSON format. In general, NoSQL databases are not recommended as most of Discord data you are storing is relational (e.g. economy things) while mongodb is for non-relational data, hence there is no reason to use NoSQL over SQL to store relational data.

-# Motor, the previous async driver has been deprecated in favor of PyMongo
Nevertheless, if you still want to use mongodb within your asynchronous code, use PyMongo for the async driver. Keep in mind that odds of you getting mongo support here are low as it is not a common topic.

• Official MongoDB Website
• Get Started With PyMongo
• Check Out The PyMongo Async Tutorial

[fresh sierra]

well it can come from 1000 reasons if its blocking code

you could make a blocking code detector

[eternal kite]

my bot works fine with mongodb

I've done research beforehand

[fresh sierra]

and check from here in which frame the loop is stopped

[little cobalt]

MongoDB is removing Motor

[sage tendon]

you're still using an outdated thing

[eternal kite]

i used it in 2020 what do you expect

i mean i coded the bot in 2020

[sage tendon]

but yea what exactly is the issue then if light commands are fast and others are slower

[eternal kite]

reading db is slow i guess

yea i agree read and write with motor mongodb is kinda slow

[little cobalt]

uh, I added everytime ctx.defer if I have to connect to my MongoDB

[eternal kite]

same

[fresh sierra]

then we might have found the issue

switch to a sql and see

[eternal kite]

is pymongo faster than motor?

[sage tendon]

mongo is nosql..

[fresh sierra]

sql***

[little cobalt]

https://pymongo.readthedocs.io/en/4.13.0/async-tutorial.html

[eternal kite]

I'll be having issues exporting data from nosql to sql lol

[sage tendon]

how many servers is your bot in

[eternal kite]

no im asking about the performance difference

I know how to read the docs wtf

[little cobalt]

1 sec.

[eternal kite]

900 now

[fresh sierra]

you should be able to make a script for the migration (they might even be tools for that)

[sage tendon]

Are you running the db on the same server

[eternal kite]

wdym

[eternal kite]

yea but it's a pain

[sage tendon]

are you using a hoster or is it on the VPS you run the bot on

[eternal kite]

mongodb have their own servers

[fresh sierra]

i mean if you only have to do it once and then you sure everything gonna be fine

[sage tendon]

that's not really how it works

lol

[eternal kite]

[little cobalt]

https://www.mongodb.com/docs/languages/python/pymongo-driver/current/reference/migration/

[fresh sierra]

do you only have 512 mb of stockage ?

[eternal kite]

mb

[eternal kite]

yeah i saw it

[sage tendon]

512 is enough for a db for some time

[little cobalt]

yea but not at 900 server

[eternal kite]

i have about 2k documents and it's only taking around 4mb rn lmfao

[little cobalt]

oh

[eternal kite]

2k users

[sage tendon]

btw, are you keeping the connection to the db open or do you keep re-establishing it whenever you need to access the db

[sage tendon]

you severely underestimate DBs

[eternal kite]

so technically i can survive up to 200k users

[sage tendon]

and nosql is space inefficient compared to sql

[eternal kite]

obviously keeping it lmao

connecting takes more than 5 seconds

[sage tendon]

wtf

[eternal kite]

what the wtf

am i not supposed to keep the connection open wtf

that's weird af

[sage tendon]

no, 5 seconds is so long

[eternal kite]

yea..

alr so i did some googling

[sage tendon]

and how long does an operation take

[eternal kite]

and everything said mongodb is faster than sql databases

[eternal kite]

find one usually takes 200ms to 1000ms uh

[sage tendon]

that depends on a lot of factors

[eternal kite]

200 ms average i think

[fresh sierra]

since you can have ur sql locally and not mongo db, at the end of the day it will be faster

[lofty parcel]

You usually have to work with indexes if you have quite a lot of documents.

[little cobalt]

you can

[lofty parcel]

Search can be inefficient in non sql dbs

[little cobalt]

I host my MongoDB locally

[sage tendon]

sigh

[fresh sierra]

i thought it was only on server, that's mb then

[sage tendon]

If only people only shared info they were certain about

[eternal kite]

how do you host it locally

[sage tendon]

like any other db

lol

[eternal kite]

establishing connection with the db isn't establishing it with the db servers?

[sage tendon]

what

[sage tendon]

on Amazon
lol

[eternal kite]

like aren't the db servers located at the company business location

[sage tendon]

dude you download the db server and run it lol

[little cobalt]

https://www.mongodb.com/docs/manual/tutorial/install-mongodb-on-ubuntu/

its pretty easy to install

[eternal kite]

wtf

[lofty parcel]

If you use atlas, yes

You're storing stuff in their servers

[eternal kite]

yes im using atlas

yea exactly

[sage tendon]

yea and you shouldn't

it's completely unnecessary

just run it locally

[little cobalt]

at the end its all the same, but just local

[eternal kite]

what's the difference

[sage tendon]

depending on where the servers are compared to your VPS it'll save you a lot of time

[little cobalt]

you need internet for the other one xd

[sage tendon]

one is hosted by a company, one on your server..

[eternal kite]

yea so should i switch to sql database or nah

[sage tendon]

it's really not that complicated lol

[eternal kite]

because online saying nosql is much faster

[little cobalt]

host it locally at your server and not online

[sage tendon]

let's just say the overwhelming majority of the world runs on SQL dbs

[eternal kite]

does it take more ram if i host the db myself?

[sage tendon]

obviously it'll need some resources

shouldn't be much tho

[eternal kite]

my bot is already taking 2-3gb ram and i still couldn't locate the memory leakage smh

[sage tendon]

doesn't have to be a memory leak necessarily

[lofty parcel]

There are more factors to consider when choosing a DB.

[eternal kite]

how about the performance tho

[sage tendon]

the lack of ping will make it much faster now matter how shit your server is

[eternal kite]

oh so that's the reason

[sage tendon]

200ms seems super much to me
on a local SQL server I get sub millisecond execution times

[eternal kite]

yea im tired of shit taking 0.2 seconds to search something in merely 2k documents

[little cobalt]

oh, at the online version you have a ratelimit

[eternal kite]

right

[sage tendon]

yea I mean search will always be slower with nosql

SQL is just better if you have structured and regular data

[eternal kite]

then why is everyone saying nosql is faster than sql

[echo wraith]

It's not

idk why they saying that

[sage tendon]

sigh

[eternal kite]

google is feeding me false info

[sage tendon]

honestly sqlite might even be more ideal than a local server

for you

[sage tendon]

let me guess, the AI summary?

[eternal kite]

no

[lofty parcel]

Choosing a DB depends on many factors

[eternal kite]

im reading stack exchange

[lofty parcel]

Toothy is right about having structured data, you should use sql

You also get some other advantages like integrity

[eternal kite]

apart from the user data, other data i have are non relational

[sage tendon]

like what

[eternal kite]

like two pieces data having their fields completely unrelated

[sage tendon]

that's normal lol

look unless you are storing VERY different pieces of data in every single row, or your DB schema changes regularly, you should use SQL

mongodb is overhyped and overused

[eternal kite]

ooo yes this

[sage tendon]

No

[eternal kite]

schema changes quite regularly

[sage tendon]

why / how

[eternal kite]

because that'll be easier to read when im reading the database from the mongodb app

[sage tendon]

can you just show some of your dB entries I think you're confusing stuff

[lofty parcel]

what

[eternal kite]

im not home rn

[lofty parcel]

Do you know what toothy means by schema?..

[eternal kite]

but i came up with the conclusion that the less work and most efficient solution is to switch online db servers to host it locally

[eternal kite]

yea the document structure

[sage tendon]

that's the least efficient method kekw

[eternal kite]

i mean u literally said it removes the ping factor

[lofty parcel]

Then how the hell are you changing the schema that regularly

[sage tendon]

hosting it LOCALLY

does that

not on some fuck ass servers thousands of kilometres away

oh nvm I misread your message

my bad

[eternal kite]

not hosting it on the same vps im hosting with my bot?

you're confusing me now

[sage tendon]

that's what local means lol

[lofty parcel]

Hosting it on your vps equals local

[eternal kite]

yea

that's literally what i meant

[sage tendon]

.

[eternal kite]

im not home rn

[sage tendon]

if you have the same data fields every time, or mostly anyway, mongo is unnecessary

[eternal kite]

most data fields are same yeah

but im too lazy to switch from nosql to sql when i can just remove the ping factor

[sage tendon]

that is completely unrelated

wtf

you can also host mongo locally, its just that mongo has zero benefits for your case then

[eternal kite]

the thing is im lazy to switch to sql as the effort:efficiency ratio is not that big of a difference

[sage tendon]

then have fun with 1s write times

[eternal kite]

and switching from online db to local hosting db can remove the ping factor literally making it sub milliseconds like you said

[eternal kite]

1s write time is too exaggerated lol

[sage tendon]

you said that

[eternal kite]

no i said read time

[sage tendon]

so.. write is even slower?

[eternal kite]

idk about write

never tested it

[fickle frost]

😭 😭 😭 😭 😭 😭 😭 😭 😭

[sage tendon]

you can still use them

they just aren't supported by the library yet

[fickle frost]

I need to upload them in real time

My bot is like 15 files written in pycord I'm not switching to discord.py now😭

Just to confirm there is no way yet to upload application emojis, only guild emojis, right?

[sage tendon]

not via the library no

[tidal vessel]

Use the API

lol

[fickle frost]

on it 😭

[sage tendon]

yea I think there's some way to make a raw API request using the library so you don't need to worry about authorisation and all that
but I really don't know about that

[round heart]

There's a PR for application emojis, isn't there?

[sage tendon]

mayhaps

[fresh sierra]

https://github.com/Pycord-Development/pycord/pull/2501

seems like its merged

[round heart]

So if you install using the master branch, you should be able to.

.tag master

[sly karma]

pip install -U git+https://github.com/Pycord-Development/pycord
-# Note: The Master Branch May Have The Newest Features But It May Also Have More Bugs

[buoyant eagle]

    @discord.ui.button(label="English", emoji=":flag_us:", style=discord.ButtonStyle.secondary)
    async def english_button(self, interaction: discord.Interaction, button: discord.ui.Button):
        # Create a copy of the embed with the server name
        embed_copy = discord.Embed(
            title=english_terms_embed.title.replace("SERVER", interaction.guild.name),
            color=english_terms_embed.color
        )

error:

                                                      ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
AttributeError: 'Button' object has no attribute 'guild'

why i get this error?

[sage tendon]

the order of interaction and button is different

[buoyant eagle]

really?

[sage tendon]

yes

[buoyant eagle]

since when

[sage tendon]

always?

[little cobalt]

it has to be always button first and after that the interaction, you also have to add both or else it is not gonna work

[errant trout]

if im not mistaken, it's flipped around in d.py; pycord's order is button, interaction

[sinful juniper]

What is the best way to translate my discord bot into another language (English)? There should be a setup command with which an admin can specify which language the bot should have on the server

[sage tendon]

localisation file, and then just change every string to currently_selected_language.stringname
the currently selected language is a bot attribute ideally

[sinful juniper]

I find it hard to imagine how all this is supposed to work ... I mean, loading into each file and then also with the variables in the interaction responses. Are there any examples of this?

[sage tendon]

not really

its not really that hard tho
fetch the selected language from the db and load the appropriate set of strings, then just do selected_language.thisEmbedTitle or whatever

[shy oasis]

Is there any difference between using discord.Cog.listener() and discord.ext.commands.Cog.listener() ?
Both seem to work fine, but the official guide uses the latter

[sage tendon]

its just a shortcut

[shy oasis]

Yeah but the ext one has some overriden methods and I was wondering if they change anything important

[sage tendon]

follow the import, its the same thing

should be anyway

[shy oasis]

The ext one overrides some commands methods, but I guess it doesn't really matter for event listening?

[sage tendon]

hm, weird
idk

[eternal kite]

even with this light code the response time is about 600ms, is this normal?

async def ping(self, ctx):
      before = time.monotonic()
      botlatency = round(self.bot.latency * 1000)
      await ctx.respond("Pong!")
      msg = await ctx.interaction.original_response()
      await msg.edit(content=f'Pong! In **{botlatency}ms**')
      await msg.edit(content=f'Pong! In **{botlatency}ms** Response time in **{round((time.monotonic() - before) * 1000)}ms**')

[frail basin]

Sounds about right

Whats the bot latency?

And where is it hosted, country wise?

[sage tendon]

erm.. why do you use time.monotonic() and not time.now()

[frail basin]

Makes 0 difference

[fresh sierra]

600 ms seems a bit high

since you told me previously you were in the us

[eternal kite]

57ms

[fresh sierra]

still seems like blocking code

[eternal kite]

im not rn

[sage tendon]

luma you are obsessed with blocking code

[frail basin]

Thats fine

[frail basin]

Look at the code please

[fresh sierra]

what can make a bot quadruple the response time

[frail basin]

I dont see any blocking code

[fresh sierra]

could come from a check etc

dont necessary need to be inside a command

[frail basin]

Well most people dont modify 90% of their library

[fresh sierra]

well he did had a previous issue with check so

[eternal kite]

there's two db reads in my bot.check

[fresh sierra]

if there is nothing blocking, the check should not matter

so it might be normal since rn ur not inside the us

[sage tendon]

i mean you are basically measuring 3 api calls

respond > original response > edit

reduce that

200ms per call would be more normal

[frail basin]

Your expected network latency with the current setup would be 4*botlatency

1. Initial interaction
2. Pong
3. Edit
4. Edit 2

4*60=240ms

So that leaves 360ms "processing" time

[frail basin]

This easily accounts for the majority of the those 360ms

The only thing that really matters is the time till the pong interaction reaches discord

Anything under 1s is fine

[eternal kite]

alr

[sage tendon]

you are forgetting the discord gateway slowness

which is usually around 130ms

[frail basin]

True

[sage tendon]

130*3 = 390

and there you have it

all accounted for

[buoyant eagle]

how you got that name?
its from the 6+ years of nitro?

[sage tendon]

its a boost perk of this server

[buoyant eagle]

oh wow

[round heart]

This is a new one

discord.errors.ConnectionClosed: Shard ID None WebSocket closed with 1000
DeprecationWarning: parameter 'timeout' of type 'float' is deprecated, please use 'timeout=ClientWSTimeout(ws_close=...)'

[lapis dock]

Could you share the full traceback?

[sage tendon]

are you on 2.6.1

[round heart]

Not much else to it.. I've been getting the reconnect every so often, this is the first time I've seen the float warning

ERROR:discord.client:Attempting a reconnect in 0.16s
Traceback (most recent call last):
File ".../site-packages/discord/client.py", line 617, in connect

return await self.__session.ws_connect(url, **kwargs)

[round heart]

yes

[lapis dock]

It is probably from this line in pycord
msg = await self.socket.receive(timeout=self._max_heartbeat_timeout)
The aiohttp docs do not make it clear that using timeout like that is deprecated tho. Because that method calls the method in the error, it is not the method in the error.

[errant trout]

you have the idea but not quite, it's as the error says; line 216 in http.py ```py
async def ws_connect(self, url: str, *, compress: int = 0) -> Any:
kwargs = {
...
"timeout": 30.0,
...
}
return await self.__session.ws_connect(url, **kwargs)

basically just needs a PR to change it to ClientWSTimeout instead

well, might need a version check

https://github.com/aio-libs/aiohttp/pull/3946/files

[round heart]

ahhh. version fun

[lapis dock]

dangit, reading fail

python version check? If so that is not fun :(

[errant trout]

idk if aiohttp version is bound to python version

someone else can figure that out

[sage tendon]

wdym

[errant trout]

the PR that deprecated float timeout is the same PR they added the new class for it; pycord still works with older versions of aiohttp than that, so you have to include both implementations

[sage tendon]

update aiohttp?

[echo wraith]

aiohttp is not a builtin module

[errant trout]

I'm aware, but pycord isn't very strict on the version

Like my master bot I'm testing cv2 on uses aiohttp 3.8

[sage tendon]

just update to use the new method and raise the dependency version

[sage tendon]

almost as upsetting as people still using python 3.9 or 3.8

3.10 is thin ice

[errant trout]

My assumption was that aiohttp versions itself to match Python versions but I didn't look too far into it

[sage tendon]

nah the newest is either 3.11 or 3.15

3.11.18 stable

actually no they just released 3.12

[lethal loom]

is components v2 in the git version?

[lapis dock]

Not yet, just the PR

[lethal loom]

nah ok

[lapis dock]

although it probably should be merged and 2.7 released

[lethal loom]

Do you know how long this may take? Invalid server list

[lapis dock]

No, also what does "Invalid server list" mean?

[fresh sierra]

how can member.joined_at be None ?
self.joined_at: datetime.datetime | None = utils.parse_time(
data.get("joined_at")
)

[little cobalt]

uhm, without member intents?

[lapis dock]

The API does not mark it as optional so...

[fresh sierra]

well it might be a typehint issue then

so ig it will be fix in v3

[sage tendon]

you do realize at the current pace v3 will never actually release right

[fresh sierra]

be released on pypi maybe not

but it looks like its gonna be done before 2.8 ;)

[silk spire]

Idk when exactly but Member.joined_at can definitely be None

[errant trout]

guest members will have it set to None

(there's a docs pr for this but it's stuck in draft hell)

[sterile herald]

Very minor, but on mobile it shows the command still thinking even though it’s finished (very bottom of image). On PC, it doesn't show it.
After deferring, I’ve tried ctx.respond and ctx.followup.send for the embed and both show the same thing.

Am I able to remove that or am I missing something? I’ve tried searching, but can’t find anything about it.

It’s just a straight reply. No buttons, menus, etc.

[lapis dock]

TBH this looks a bit like a discord bug because of how squished the loading dots are

[errant trout]

known client bug

[sterile herald]

Awesome thank you guys. I just updated my app as well and it no longer shows. Should have done that in the first place

[fresh sierra]

What’s guest member ? Is it smth new ?

[errant trout]

been a thing for a few years, on invite creation click edit -> temporary membership

[fresh sierra]

And like they can be in a guild for some hour and then they get « kick » ?

[errant trout]

no, they're kicked after disconnecting from VC if they weren't granted any roles

[fresh sierra]

Ok, it’s like a kind of application member but old fashioned
Good to know

[errant trout]

well... not particularly? just try it

[frail basin]

Under what conditions is discord.Thread.parent None?

[errant trout]

you don't have the parent channel cached

[fresh sierra]

is it the same for view.message ?

or if we send a view inside a slash command its not considered as a message so view.message is None ?

[frail basin]

Is there any reason why User doesnt inherit from Member?

[sage tendon]

because that's not how it works

User stands above member

[frail basin]

What?

[sage tendon]

A member is a special user

any member is also a user, but not every user has an associated member object

[frail basin]

Oh I meant it in reverse

why doesnt Member inherit from User

[sage tendon]

it does afaik?

[frail basin]

it just has a _user attr

[sage tendon]

[frail basin]

it setattr's the user functions' and properties

[sage tendon]

pycord internals are a bit weird

you can just use it as if it inherits straight from user

[frail basin]

I just spent quite some time debugging an issue where the User was implicit converted to a Member, while the type remained a User, breaking isinstance checks

[sage tendon]

how does that happen lol

[frail basin]

Slash command input

[sage tendon]

Fun fact

you can put ANY user ID into a slash command member option

are you typing it as : User or : Member

[frail basin]

user

but I get a Member object

[sage tendon]

yea that's expected behaviour

you should type it as Member

[frail basin]

how is that expected

if it inherited from User? sure.

but since it doesnt, it doesnt make sense to implicit convert

[sage tendon]

It does effectively, even if it looks like it doesn't

[frail basin]

well tell that to isinstance

[sage tendon]

check another way

e.g. member.guild

with hasattr

[frail basin]

yeah much more pythonic solution

[sage tendon]

or if member in guild.members

many roads lead to rome

I also dislike that you cant disable people entering non-member IDs, which isn't your exact issue but kinda related

[frail basin]

so if I have an input typed as User, it would return a Member in a guild context but a User in a dm?

[sage tendon]

yes

[frail basin]

...

[sage tendon]

remember, what you type it as doesn't matter to python

it's just a type_hint_

not a type_force_

[frail basin]

which the library uses to know what input to expect

[sage tendon]

Nope

If you use the option decorator for example, and pass discord.User or discord.Member, what gets passed to the Discord API is essentially just "any user"
And after that the library gives a rats ass about what comes back

[silk spire]

it's from dpy and IIRC it's faster to not inherit from it

[lapis dock]

This must be it. From member object discord docs.

The field user won't be included in the member object attached to MESSAGE_CREATE and MESSAGE_UPDATE gateway events.

So you can create a user if you only have some of the info

[real glacier]

hello! sorry if this is off-topic, im using aiosqlite. is it good to use WAL?

[sage tendon]

whats that

[fresh sierra]

I don’t really see the point of it except if you have a really big bot, but else except needed more space there is not big change

[fresh sierra]

Instead of editing directly the db, it will first append each commit in a file and then it will be merge to the db

So it can help with concurrency especially with sqlit since you can only have 1 connection

[real glacier]

it has almost the same size as the main one, which is kind of eating up my vps storage

i want to turn it off, but it might cut some of my processing

or idk

[fresh sierra]

Then if you don’t have a lot of place in ur vps you should not use it

[fresh sierra]

Stop all process, check with the checkpoint to be sure and then delete ,

[real glacier]

ok, thanks!

[hazy turret]

Do I have to add a view on each Guild in the on_ready method to make it persistent or is it enough if I just do self.bot.add_view(view)?
Or do I have to do:

for guild in self.bot.guilds:
   self.bot.add_view(view)```

[lofty parcel]

Why would you need to iterate over the guilds lol

You're not even using the guild object in the method

[hazy turret]

I go through each Guild because I pass the language of the Guild to the view to create it.

[fresh sierra]

rn ur not doing it

but self.bot.add_view(view) is enough to make the view persistent inside ur whole bot

no need to do it guild by guild

[hazy turret]

But how should I do it if I pass the Guild Local when creating the view?
Then I have to pass it again when persisting so that I don't get an error?

[fresh sierra]

then you pass it again

for guild in self.bot.guilds:
   self.bot.add_view(MyView(guild=guild))

[hazy turret]

Okay thanks

[lofty parcel]

Am sure that won't work

Dynamic args and persistent views are kinda weird

[fresh sierra]

I have been doing that for year without any issue

Maybe it’s not how it’s supposed to be done but it works

[lofty parcel]

I haven't worked with pycord in a long time

So eh, I could be wrong

[fresh sierra]

im doing like so for example

and it does add the view correctly and also keep each option correctly, but maybe you can also just pass None and its gonna work (dont remember if it works with None)

[sage tendon]

me when people actually read their code

[fiery fable]

is there a way to display a role but dont mention it? because role Role.mention, ofc mention it

[frail basin]

discord.TextChannel.send_message(
  content=role.mention, 
  allowed_mentions=discord.AllowedMentions(roles=False)
)

allowed_mentions=discord.AllowedMentions(roles=False)

[fiery fable]

alright thanks!

[cosmic thorn]

is it possible to check if a message is sent from a thread? smth like
if message.channel.type == "private_thread"

[frail basin]

if isinstance(message.channel, discord.Thread) and message.channel.is_private():
    ...

[cosmic thorn]

thank you!!

[echo wraith]

gosh this syntax needs a change

[frail basin]

wouldnt be necessary if the lib was more strictly typed

[echo wraith]

It's also just ugly like that imo

[frail basin]

feel free to suggest better solutions

[echo wraith]

smth like if message.channel.type is ChannelType.PRIVATE_THREAD or smth idk

[frail basin]

that doesnt type narrow it

[echo wraith]

also why is is_private a method ?!

[frail basin]

all methods

[echo wraith]

yeah ik that was a rethoric question

[echo wraith]

true oops

well

just make a class PrivateThread etc... and all inherit from a common thing

but do it actually correctly

cause rn it's a mess

there's not clear inheritance path

[frail basin]

Also, make Member inherit from User 🙏

[echo wraith]

I'm not sure about that one

[frail basin]

message.author is always included

which is a full user object

Its also not typehinted as optional

[sage tendon]

how would that help?

[sage tendon]

not possible as you heard before

[frail basin]

My last 4 messages describe why it is

[sage tendon]

not really

[torn barn]

It can return a full or partial user

[sage tendon]

how would typing make it easier?

[frail basin]

No need for pointless isinstance checks

[sage tendon]

how else would you do it then?

how can you be sure its a thread otherwise?

[frail basin]

Heavy use of generics by the lib

So a type checker would know that message.channel is a discord.Thread

[sage tendon]

uh.. no

message.channel can be any other channel type too

[torn barn]

That is not how it works…

[sage tendon]

did you get infected by luma with his typing virus?

[torn barn]

Prolly

[sage tendon]

This is the minimal solution. It doesn't matter if its typed or not.

[torn barn]

You can have a helper function typed as a TypeIs[MessageSubclass] return type

[sage tendon]

yea but you will always need an isinstance

[torn barn]

class PrivChannel(discord.Message):
    channel: discord.Thread
def is_priv_thread(ch) -> typing.TypeIs[PrivChannel]:
    return isinstance(ch, discord.Thread) and ch.is_private()

[torn barn]

Yes, but makes it more readable

And still does that type thing

[sage tendon]

has nothing to do with how the lib is typed tho

[torn barn]

So maybe they like it more

[sage tendon]

akos is just infected by lumas typing virus

[torn barn]

Didn’t doubt it

[frail basin]

just tired of having to do shit like this

[frail basin]

didnt know about TypeIs, thanks.

[echo wraith]

Oh interesting I only knew TypeGuard

[fresh sierra]

dont lose ur mask, you could be infected soon too

how can InteractionChannel be a category ?

[frail basin]

¯_(ツ)_/¯

Interaction has it typed like that

[fresh sierra]

yeah i saw that, but how is it even possible

is it just a mistake or is it really somth that i dont know about discord

[frail basin]

I guess the official docs didnt bother with it

I dont think it can actually ever be that

[torn barn]

Yeah because it is the recommended one, but it is way too unsafe

[echo wraith]

https://rednafi.com/python/typeguard_vs_typeis interesting

[frail basin]

there are probably even cleaner ways to do this

[echo wraith]

oh I'll love when pycord goes 3.12 +

cause of the new generics sytax

[]

[fresh sierra]

how am i supposed to pass a list of snowflakes into the role edit ?
should the list of role id already be a list of snowflak ?

[frail basin]

just do roles=[r.id for r in roles]

[fresh sierra]

same, it asks for a list of snowflake and not int, i moght just cast it then

[frail basin]

Snowflake is literally just str | int

[fresh sierra]

so this doesnt work here, it looks more for a list of object

[frail basin]

there are two snowflake types?

[sage tendon]

no, i worry about important things

[torn barn]

That is in types, not the protocol

[frail basin]

true

[torn barn]

And how would the lib know what type to return the interaction.channel without it having bunchs of if statements

[fresh sierra]

cant that be possible with typevar ?

[torn barn]

Yes, but still the lib would need bunch of if statements per channels

Typevars can’t magically guess the type of a channel

Unless explicitly stated

[sage tendon]

the luma virus

[fresh sierra]

if its inside the library and not on the user side its better dont you think ?

[torn barn]

No

[sage tendon]

i legit dont see the issue with the current solution

[torn barn]

Which of all lol

[fresh sierra]

i dont know what is his issue so

but for example the rework of the get or fetch using the typevar is really nice

[torn barn]

overloads when

But ig typevars work on that context

Not on this

[sage tendon]

overloads...... we.. are.. in python..

[lapis dock]

The API docs don't specify that it can't be.

[echo wraith]

:)

[sage tendon]

the client allows you to type in category channels

:>

[torn barn]

typing.overload never existed

[fresh sierra]

a nice thing i would love to see implemented is a better support for custom context, for example using typevar and so being able to pass our context too

like so :
Context[MyContext],
this is just an idea, i have no idea how can or if its even possible to implement this

[errant trout]

use Object

[torn barn]

What

You can do that

Just override your get_(application_)context method to default to a custom subclass and use that custom context annotation instead of the default one

[fresh sierra]

to use it yes, for the typehint not really

[torn barn]

Why not

[frail basin]

You can just typehint it as your custom class

even strict type checkers will allow it

[fresh sierra]

not really, or i dont understand how

[torn barn]

Error is self explanatory

Tbh

You trying to override a converter to return Emoji but expects a Role

[fresh sierra]

im talking about the above one (other one is a typo)

[torn barn]

And when you using commands.Context is expecting to be a LumabotContext type or any that subclasses it

Why annotate it like commands.Context

[fresh sierra]

so im doing like this to pass the context, but its telling me its not

so i did try to do
commands.Context[LumabotContext] (which is not possible since its about using Bot etc

for a bit more clarity using a known class, here also an example with bridge ext context

and so it leads also to some issue here

so if its possible as you said, could you give me some pointers ? because im a bit lost tbh

[little cobalt]

All the red error at the right side ;3

[sage tendon]

jesus

isnt BotBase d.py

[fresh sierra]

mainly because of overrides

(rn i have to fix 800 errors inside 1 file) mainly untyped dict

[lapis dock]

No, it is a (private-ish) superclass of Bot.

[ashen cargo]

I'm using bridge commands but doesn't seem to work in DMs, any way to solve this?

[lapis dock]

The slash commands are not working? And when you say "in DMs" do you mean DMs with the bot or DMs with other people?

[ashen cargo]

They simply don't show up in conversations with other people

[lapis dock]

Is your bot user installed?

[ashen cargo]

Yep I can use it in different servers which it's not in but not DMs

[lapis dock]

Have you set the contexts?

[rugged lodge]

Here's the slash users example.

[lapis dock]

This example shows how to set the contexts if you have not

[ashen cargo]

Cancel that, it seems that it's only showing in servers the bot is in

[ashen cargo]

I'm using bridge commands not normal slash

[lapis dock]

No problem, then you need to also set the integration types as shown in the example as well.

I think it should still work for bridge

[ashen cargo]

For each command?

[lapis dock]

You can set it bot wide as well

[ashen cargo]

@bot.bridge_command(integration_types={discord.IntegrationType.user_install})
async def embed(ctx: bridge.BridgeContext, *, url: str):
    """Uploads a video to Catbox and returns an embeddable link."""

Completely empty

In my other bot that uses normal slash commands, I didn't need to do any of this

[lapis dock]

https://docs.pycord.dev/en/stable/api/clients.html#discord.Bot.default_command_contexts Here is the link to the place that you can set the defaults for the bot (bridge.Bot inherits from this so it should still work)

Have you refreshed discord client cache with ctrl+r?
Try setting the contexts as well. I just skimmed the internal code and it looks like bridge should work with contexts and such

*, url: str not so sure that this syntax works with bridge commands

but that is secondary to the current problem

[ashen cargo]

Yes even restarted it

[ashen cargo]

Seems to be working fine in the server

This seems to have worked

bot = bridge.Bot(command_prefix="!", intents=intents, case_insensitive=True, default_command_contexts = {InteractionContextType.private_channel}, default_command_integration_types = {IntegrationType.user_install})

[lapis dock]

Does it still work in guilds then?

If not you should expand the defaults

[ashen cargo]

No because I only set IntegrationType to user install

Yep

[lapis dock]

Just making sure you are aware 👍

[ashen cargo]

Thank you

[real glacier]

hello!

is_booster = True
            if not isinstance(ctx.author, discord.Member) or not ctx.author.premium_since:
                is_booster = False

this only checks if the user is a booster. what about checking if the user boosted in a specific guild...?

[torn barn]

You should check whether the user avatar is animated, they have a banner also, because they maybe have nitro but have not boosted any server your bot is in

[real glacier]

oop you are right!

[errant trout]

Member objects are already tied to a specific guild

[deft kestrel]

Hello, i trying to do stuff with some variables when i close the modal without sending it, but not luck trying with on_timeout() or _dispatch_timeout(), gemini says on_timeout would me enough to do what i want, but dont trigger when i close it. ¿ideas?

[torn barn]

This is because Modals have no timeout by default

So they never really time out

And discord does not let the apps know when someone closes a modal without sending it

[deft kestrel]

thats bad, because thats exactly what i need, i dont want the modal to timeout, just know when a user haves or not the modal open

[errant trout]

unfortunately it's impossible to know if a model is currently open

your bot can ONLY know 1) when a modal is first opened and 2) when a modal is submitted

[deft kestrel]

shame, i will try to find another way to do what i want. thanks for the replies! 😄

[real glacier]

but the user still bypassed it idk why

please help

[round heart]

I feel like I've asked this before, but choices loaded when the bot loads, right? There's no way to change that list without reloading?

[sage tendon]

the command needs to be synced again

[round heart]

Mm. Which is somewwhat broken in pycord currently iirc. Isn't that what Wolfy was working on

[fresh sierra]

its working

maybe not as optimized as possible

they might also be some issue of commands not being remove when cog is unload or somth like that, but if you sync again it works

[lapis dock]

As far as I can tell it just syncs more commands then it should. Like luma said it is more of an optimization fix.

[cinder mica]

hello pycord discord server. I am intending to make a bot that does an action at 8:00AM every day. I saw tasks in the guide that could help me.
I saw that the task can take either a time interval or a sequence of datetimes. I have two questions:

• is there a way to tell the task to start looping at a certain datetime.time, and then loop with a time interval of hours=24
• can I provide an infinite generator object that yields datetime.time's as the time parameter (now that i type this out, it feels like a bad idea)

[torn barn]

you can have an inner sleep until that time, then start the loop

when starting the loop, there will always be one iteration the time it gets started

something like:

@tasks.loop(hours=24)
async def task():
    ...

when_to_start = datetime....
await discord.utils.sleep_until(when_to_start)
task.start()

[cinder mica]

you're one of the greatest aint no debating on it

[fresh sierra]

I do think there is a better way using the time arg

[fresh sierra]

@tasks.loop(time=datetime.time(hour=8)
with this is will run everyday at 8am (depending on ur timezone)
(and so you dont need all the when to start and sleep

(i might have not understand everything you ask but this seems more logical imo)

[torn barn]

They want to wait till X timestamp to start the 24h loop

[fresh sierra]

I thought this X timestamp was the 8am, so then it can turn every 24h

If not then I misunderstood their message

[sage tendon]

which is exactly what Lumas thing achieves.

[torn barn]

One thing is wait till X time, ie waiting for 8 am, no specific day / month, other for a timestamp

If they meant the first, they should use Luma’s suggestion

[wheat tiger]

Why do I get this error? Although I've accessed is_finished attribute anywhere in my code.

[echo wraith]

Send the code please

[wheat tiger]

@echo wraith Congo dude, ur exams finished 🥳

[echo wraith]

Thank you ! 🎉

Finally 😭

[wheat tiger]

@echo wraith Any clues?

[fresh sierra]

when you do a search in all of ur files about is_finished do you have any result ?

[echo wraith]

I'm on my phone I'm gonna take a look in 5 mins

[wheat tiger]

Nope

[fresh sierra]

strange because by looking at the pycord code, they are never using it before checking if view is not None

[fresh sierra]

are you on master ?

[wheat tiger]

yes

[fresh sierra]

can you show us the full traceback ?

[wheat tiger]

it occurs only after running that command, so that's what it gets printed in terminal

[echo wraith]

No but like the full error

[fresh sierra]

inside ur error handle print the traceback

[fresh sierra]

this is not the traceback

print(error.with_traceback(error.traceback))

[wheat tiger]

🙃

[fresh sierra]

error.__traceback__

[wheat tiger]

ye thats what I did

print(error.__traceback__)

[fresh sierra]

no

print(error.with_traceback(error.traceback))

[wheat tiger]

if u do print(error.with_traceback(error.traceback)) it shows this only

[fresh sierra]

maybe you need to use error.original

try to do
error = error.original

and then ur thing

and last option is just remove the on_application_error for a moment

[wheat tiger]

where is .original?

it's not in error

[fresh sierra]

if you have an error error has no attribut original then you dont need it

and so just try to remove ur error handler

[fresh sierra]

the view you pass is wrongly pass from what i understood

[wheat tiger]

ass 💀

[fresh sierra]

it seems that its None

[wheat tiger]

yes

it's None

[fresh sierra]

but you cant pass a view None like this

(i will maybe make a pr for you can)

[wheat tiger]

please

[fresh sierra]

@errant trout could you add this inside your v2 pr ? or should i make one ?

basically in the async py it check if the view is not missing but not if its None, its also the only place where it does that

i dont know if its intentional but i dont think it is

[errant trout]

...that's only in the send method

just don't pass the view kwarg

[wheat tiger]

@fresh sierra Is there any way to get the tracebak from error handler too?

[fresh sierra]

but should it not handle by itself if a view is None ?

[errant trout]

no because it expects MISSING

that's the point

[fresh sierra]

then if its intended no need for a change

[fresh sierra]

i already told you how to

[wheat tiger]

Is this correct, it doesn't throw err now...

[fresh sierra]

    @commands.Cog.listener()
    async def on_application_command_error(self, ctx: discord.ApplicationContext, error: discord.DiscordException):
        error = getattr(error, "original", None) or error
        print(error.with_traceback(error.__traceback__))

[errant trout]

i understand it's not the most intuitive but that's how MISSING operates and i'm not gonna make an exception specifically for view - you simply shouldn't pass it at all

[errant trout]

yeah this works

[wheat tiger]

But we pass view=None while editing messages and it remove the whole view....

[fresh sierra]

it was logical for me that the respond could also have None for view since the edit for example also have None

[errant trout]

yeah that's in edit, not send

[fresh sierra]

i never really noticed that the send cannot have view = None tbh

[wheat tiger]

ye same here

[errant trout]

that's not specific to view, generally if something is typed as MISSING it's because None has a different purpose

but this isn't always the case, for the most part MISSING is just legacy design

changing it is a larger scale thing that i'm not addressing in this pr

[fresh sierra]

we do get the usecase of missing, but because we were used to view=None in edit we got induce in error for this send too

[wheat tiger]

Doesn't send the full traceback

[fresh sierra]

show me ur code

[fresh sierra]

what if you print it ?

is it the same ?

[wheat tiger]

ye

[fresh sierra]

maybe try like this :
tb_str = "".join(traceback.format_exception(type(error), error, error.traceback))

it does work on my end so i dont really know why it doesnt for you, (maybe different python version)

[wheat tiger]

what send the ss

[fresh sierra]

?

elif await check.is_dev(ctx):
    error = getattr(error, "original", None) or error
    tb_str = "".join(traceback.format_exception(type(error), error, error.__traceback__))
    error_em.description = (
        f"{emoji.error} An unexpected error occurred: **`{error.__class__.__name__}`**\n"
        f"\```py\n{tb_str}\```"
    )

[wheat tiger]

this works

[sage tendon]

it's literally the same exact result

[wheat tiger]

Another thing I discovered 💀. For file= too u need to pass discord.MISSING instead of None (None throws error).

[errant trout]

literally just read the docs

it tells you if it's missing or none

[torn barn]

but different concepts

[sage tendon]

yea, one is using a workaround for no reason, the other uses the intended way

[ancient timber]

So ig this is where I ask this lol, I was redoing my cog loader yesterday and I somehow broke it to the point where I'm not sure how to fix it. I'm getting the object list can't be in await when trying to load cogs and my cogs are setup using async def setup(bot) then await bot.load_cog(mycog(cog))

And my loader using await bot.load_extension(module)

Any ideas or suggestions would be appreciated

[sage tendon]

yea, that's not Pycord

pycord's load_extension is sync

[ancient timber]

Wym?

[tidal vessel]

In Pycord when loading an extension or adding a Cog it is not async, you are probably using discord.py

[ancient timber]

Oh I see now, I probably confused the too when watching a YouTube tutorial thanks

[tidal vessel]

I don't recommend YT, many videos are not updated with the current discord API

See the documentation

[ancient timber]

I presume that would be in the cog section of the docs

[tidal vessel]

https://guide.pycord.dev/popular-topics/cogs

[ancient timber]

Thank u kindly!

[cinder mica]

This is so cool

[sage tendon]

Is there a plan to put the user tag into the discord.User object? Currently I'm querying the day like this:

result = requests.get(f"https://discord.com/api/guilds/{MAIN_GUILD}/members/{member.id}", headers={"Authorization": f"Bot {TOKEN}"})
            if result.status_code == 200:
                data = result.json()
                user = data.get("user")
                if user:
                    primary_guild = user.get("primary_guild")

                    if primary_guild is None:
                        log("ERROR", f"Member {member.name} ({member.id}) has no primary guild set.")
                        continue

                    if primary_guild.get("identity_guild_id") == str(MAIN_GUILD):
                        if TAG_SUPPORTER_ROLE not in [role.id for role in member.roles]:
                            await member.add_roles(tag_role)
                            await channel.send(f"Added `{tag_role.name}` role to {member.mention} ({member.id})")

[lofty parcel]

Not until its officially documented.

It's not worth adding not documented stuff because they're subject to change at any time.

[warm monolith]

Too bad

[lofty parcel]

You can also use the http module from the lib to get the raw json

You dont need to make the raw request all by yourself

[warm monolith]

How do I do that?

[lofty parcel]

raw = await bot.http.get_user(member.id)```

Then you can access it normally as a you would with dictionaries

[warm monolith]

Does this also include rate limits?

[lofty parcel]

It has built-in handling for ratelimits

Since that's what the library uses

[warm monolith]

👍

[loud kayak]

why is py-cord sending multiple on_ready signals?

yea

like that

change default view value to MISSING, or do not pass it at all

[loud kayak]

nvm fixed it

half the time i fix my issues after i post for help 😭

[wheat tiger]

But I get spammed

Bot was on since a day

but this happened today at 4:00am

[lapis dock]

on_ready can fire many times due to how the discord gateway works

[wheat tiger]

but I didn't even restart my bot that time

it was up like always

[lapis dock]

Yes, on_ready is not a one time event. It is normally for it to trigger once every few hours/days. Discord was having some issues so it fired more often for a bit

[cinder mica]

hello pycord discord server. is the following issue normal? i am making my bot able to join and leave voice channels with these two methods. it joins just fine, but attempting to call play on the ctx.voice_client while it's connected to my channel gives me a ClientException: Not connected to voice.

The bot leaves the voice channel after a minute, but ctx.voice_client still exists after it leaves, and trying to call join will say it's Already connected to a voice channel.

the leave command doesn't seem to do anything to the voice client. the bot doesn't leave the channel when I call /leave.

what did i do wrong? prob something simple, i just can't find it

maybe i'm misunderstanding what ctx.voice_client actually gives me, let me check the docs again

ctx.voice_client
it says a shortcut to Guild.voice_client
Guild.voice_client
it says it "returns the VoiceClient associated with this guild, if any."

I assumed the VoiceClient I get is something I can then call .play() or .disconnect() on, am I right? that it is the voiceclient that would return from my await voice_channel.connect()

...

it started working

okay well... maybe my computer bad

ok with no edits it stopped working

ima go to sleep.

[cinder mica]

hello again! some people can't let a homie enjoy learning a cool thing without telling them they should have already known cool thing. they have to question said homie's competence. I appreciate you and the others opening my eyes to pycord's functionality but I don't need to be asked if I never read the docs when my original question was literally asking about it. the phrasing was a little discouraging, that's all.

you seem nice though, and pycord is still cool to me

[sage tendon]

what you're doing is assuming

[rancid kestrel]

class MyView(discord.ui.View):discord.ui.View
    @discord.ui.button(label="(0) Vote", style=discord.ButtonStyle.success)
    async def button_callback(self, button:discord.ui.Button, interaction, timeout=None):

``` why does the button still time out? (Im assuming after 180 seconds since last interaction since the docs say thats the default)

[fresh sierra]

its not inside the callback

[lapis dock]

Timeout is something you pass to the view constructor not the button arguments

Do you have an __init__ anywhere? If so you should then you can call super().__init__(timeout=None)

[fresh sierra]

class MyView(discord.ui.View):
    def __init__(self):
        super().__init__(timeout=None)
    @discord.ui.button(label="(0) Vote", style=discord.ButtonStyle.success)
    async def button_callback(self, button: discord.ui.Button, interaction: discord.Interaction):

[rancid kestrel]

okay that makes sense, thanks

[cinder mica]

i woke up again and it still is not working, does anyone have an idea of how to make it more consistent? could it be my machine

[lofty parcel]

Voice is fucked up

You have to install a pr if you want it to work

[red mist]

↑

[cinder mica]

ohh ok

i'll look into it

also, does anyone know how to make bytesio work with a discord.File? saved_img contains the right contents when i try to reopen it with PIL.Image.open(saved_img).show() but the discord.File gives me wack

should I be using a different io class?

oh i fixed it by adding saved_img.seek(0) before my send from stackoverflow

[wheat tiger]

@fresh sierra in the docs it says that the listener cog_unload() must not be a coroutine

[fresh sierra]

It’s just a function

def cog-unload

[wheat tiger]

but if I do

@commands.Cog.listener()
def cog_unload(self):
    self.lavalink._event_hooks.clear()

it throws error

[fresh sierra]

No need for any decorator or anything else

Remove the listener

[wheat tiger]

ok

[fresh sierra]

You should first use this

.tag rie

[sly karma]

You can run blocking code (such as PIL/Pillow) in an executor to run it in a separate thread:

def my_blocking_func(*args):
    ...

@bot.command()
async def test_command(ctx):
    ret = await bot.loop.run_in_executor(None, my_blocking_func, 'put', 'args', 'here')

See the python documentation for more info.

[fresh sierra]

Else it will block ur whole bot

[cinder mica]

we are so back

[wheat tiger]

@fresh sierra Have used Lavalink?

[cinder mica]

yeah, i will do it now

[fresh sierra]

so you fixed the other issue

[fresh sierra]

im using wavlink with lavalink

[ancient timber]

so whats the official way to use bridgeoption since option is depreciated for bridge commands

[fresh sierra]

@bridge.bridge_option()

[ancient timber]

AHHH thank u

[cinder mica]

if my command has awaits in it, am i able to turn it into a blocking function, or should i like segment away the parts that are blocking

actually disregard

actually regard

actually disregard

[fresh sierra]

nope

if there is blocking code, even tho its inside an await function it will still block ur code

[sage tendon]

what..

[cinder mica]

oh dang

[fresh sierra]

that's why you run it inside a separate thread aka rie this ensure that it doesnt block the first thread

[cinder mica]

i understand it now

[fresh sierra]

[cinder mica]

i swear you're the goat or my name isn't akash

[ancient timber]

whats the proper way to fetch global slash commands when ur using bridge.bot

[sage tendon]

wdym? what for?

[ancient timber]

basically i have an api cog that checks various things one of them is slash command desync and i was using py self.bot.tree.fetch_global_commands()

but tree dont exsist lol

[little cobalt]

that is not py-cord, that is discord.py

[ancient timber]

does pycord have such a thing?

[errant trout]

it technically does, but to be completely honest pycord's command fetching functions are implemented in a pretty convoluted way

[ancient timber]

oh boy

[errant trout]

let's see

[little cobalt]

For what do you even need that?

[ancient timber]

personal use of the api breaking my slash commands ig?

[little cobalt]

?

[errant trout]

if you're fine with raw data you can run bot.http.get_global_commands(bot.user.id)

[ancient timber]

ahh i see thank u

[tender latch]

Hey, guys. Anyone familiar with this error?

Join failed: Shard ID None WebSocket closed with 4006

I have a bot that's meant to join voice channels, but recently, I notice that I get this error a lot and it simply crashes. The bot will work when I join a fresh channel after a long time, but then when I try to move it or use it in any channel I've already been to, it breaks.

[sage tendon]

.

[tender latch]

I can't read. 😭 Let me see.

All works - thank you-!

[next egret]

Any help on why my bot (working for years just fine) connects to a voice channel but fails on the vc.play() command? Error is not connected to voice for some reason

[cinder mica]

we have the same issue stew

[cinder mica]

check this out

i haven't installed it yet but yeah

[wheat tiger]

Currently I am initializing the lavalink client on_ready event

this works but every time I need to access self.client.lavalink ourside of this function I won't get type annotations

lavalink.py docs (examples) says to do like this

But when the cog is loaded the client isn't ready due to which we can't access the client.id, thus throws error

Any fix for this?

[fresh sierra]

add it to ur bot custom class

if you want to have it on ur bot attr

on my side i dont really do that, i just have a function get player that vie me the current player

[wheat tiger]

Same here too dude

it was the lavalink node initialization

where add a node

[wheat tiger]

@fresh sierra?

[fresh sierra]

Where I’m adding a node ?

That’s ur question ?

[wheat tiger]

ye

[fresh sierra]

I have function on cog load

In which I’m putting this

[wheat tiger]

Show code

[wheat tiger]

I too did the same

but

when u run the function for the player

du get the typehints?

[fresh sierra]

Yes, because I typehint it as a wavelink player

Also using cast

[wheat tiger]

for every player?

[fresh sierra]

I only have 1 player at a time

I don’t get many player

[wheat tiger]

Is there any way to change the view emoji from here?

And then edit the message with the new view?

@fresh sierra?

Like some .emoji = "<>"

[fresh sierra]

Edit the view maybe

First you get the view

Then you get the item you want

[wheat tiger]

then

[fresh sierra]

You should maybe cast this into the item it is and then you will be able to

Like
item = view.get_item(«pause »)
button = cast(discord.ui.Button, item)
button.emoji = …
message.edit(view=view)

[sage tendon]

that makes no sense

[fresh sierra]

Im not sure the last thing exist

Im not really familiar with v2 component

[sage tendon]

we're not in java, you dont have to cast stuff

[fresh sierra]

If he wants the typehint he will have to

[wheat tiger]

Its showing type hints, like disabling, callback etc...

but not title/emoji

[sage tendon]

i think you need to replace it with a new button and edit the view

[fresh sierra]

Because item have all of that, but not emoji by default

[wheat tiger]

it gives discord.Item type

[fresh sierra]

Since for example view does not have a emoji attribute, so by casting it it will typehint it as a button

And so you should have then the emoji showing

[sage tendon]

not necessary and also doesnt solve the issue

[fresh sierra]

Tell me another way to have the typehint of emoji without casting it or using isinstance ?

[sage tendon]

either you can edit it directly with .emoji(whatever) and edit the message with the same view or you do this

[sage tendon]

there is no need to

[fresh sierra]

...

[sage tendon]

and why does that matter? it doesnt

[fresh sierra]

he also wants the typehint, by doing ur thing he will not have it

[sage tendon]

they never asked for that

they just want to change the emoji

[fresh sierra]

@wheat tiger do you want to also have the autocomplete for emoji ?

i might have misunderstandood ur requests

[torn barn]

just obtaining the item and setting the attribute works

no need to replace on the view

[sage tendon]

oh wait they never sent the view they're editing it before sending

yea then its easy

[torn barn]

even if sent they don't need to replace it lol

[lapis dock]

^ just edit the message afterwards

[sage tendon]

yea but they'd need to at least edit the message with the then changed view

[wheat tiger]

This works

[fresh sierra]

if you get_item and then edit the item it will automatically update the message ?

[sage tendon]

why not just view.get_item("pause").emoji = emoji.play_white

way shorter

[torn barn]

not the message, but the reference on the view

you still need to manually edit the message

[wheat tiger]

type hint 🙃

[sage tendon]

the luma disease

sigh

[fresh sierra]

i wish people stop crying for everything

[sage tendon]

yea, like useless type stuff
