I'm trying to create a slash command to upload a file

In order to attach a file in a slash command I'm using the discord.Option typehint with discord.Attachment as the type

class MyCog(Cog):
    ...

    @slash_command(name="upload-file", description="Upload some file")
    async def slash_command_load_quiz(
            self,
            ctx: ApplicationContext,
            file: discord.Option(
                discord.Attachment,
                description="The file to upload",
                required=True)
            ):
        await ctx.response.send_message("...")

The Cog is loaded via the load_extension function

When starting the bot, I get the following error

...
    option = Option(option)
  File "/Users/luis1/Library/Python/3.8/lib/python/site-packages/discord/commands/options.py", line 226, in __init__
    self.input_type = SlashCommandOptionType.from_datatype(input_type)
  File "/Users/luis1/Library/Python/3.8/lib/python/site-packages/discord/enums.py", line 779, in from_datatype
    if datatype.__name__ in ["Member", "User"]:
AttributeError: 'str' object has no attribute '__name__'

The above exception was the direct cause of the following exception:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File ".../main.py", line 30, in <module>
    main()
  File ".../main.py", line 24, in main
    bot.load_extension(extension)
  File "/Users/luis1/Library/Python/3.8/lib/python/site-packages/discord/cog.py", line 913, in load_extension
    self._load_from_module_spec(spec, name)
  File "/Users/luis1/Library/Python/3.8/lib/python/site-packages/discord/cog.py", line 794, in _load_from_module_spec
    raise errors.ExtensionFailed(key, e) from e
discord.errors.ExtensionFailed: Extension 'extension' raised an error: AttributeError: 'str' object has no attribute '__name__'

I tried to replicate the bug, but weirdly enough, it works when I try to replicate it...

Anyway, I noticed that in discord/commands/options.py:227 the input_type variable usually holds the type in this case it would be <class 'discord.Message.Attachment'>, whereas in my case it holds the string 'discord.Option(discord.Attachment, description="The file to upload", required=True)'

I'm using Python3.8 and the latest (unstable) version of py-cord from #library-updates

Would be nice to know if I'm just stupid, or it's actually an issue with the library...

also happens if I replace discord.Attachment with str (did not check for any other valid types)

Can you show the pip list?

  1. Uninstall discord.py or any other forks of discord.py you might have with the namespace discord.
    python -m pip uninstall discord.py discord -y

2a. Install py-cord
python -m pip install py-cord

2b. Update py-cord
python pip install -U py-cord

Installing other builds:
Note: You need to have git installed. Use ?tag git to find out how to install git.

Updating the module to master branch (unstable):
pip install -U git+https://github.com/Pycord-Development/pycord

heady dock
#

it's the unstable master branch as announced in #library-updates

#

or if you would follow the last step in the installation guide above
