[hazy loom]

Found a workaround

vc = guild.voice_client
if vc is not None:
   return await send_failed_message(ctx, "Bot already connected to a voice channel")

If anyone has any other way to do it please tell me xD

[kind mesa]

That doesnt work the same for Slash Commands

[crimson coral]

it does work on slash commands, but it's an internal check

you can no longer implement discord-sided role/user checks from the bot, it can only be done via the integrations tab

which is why permissions.has_any_role and similar decorators were removed

bot.voice_clients

working fine for me on rc1, don't think they were changed either

[hazy loom]

Yeah but I needed to check in one guild regardless of a channel which each voice client didn't have, forgot I have a channel from the bridgeContext so I just got the guild and checked the state of the voice client

[crimson coral]

fair enough i guess

[dapper quiver]

@bot.event
async def on_error(ctx, error):
    if isinstance(error, commands.MissingPermissions):
        print('test')
        embed = discord.Embed(title='Error Handler Module', description='**Why did this happen?**\nThe command you attempted to run is an admin only command and as such will not execute!', colour=discord.Colour.purple())
        await ctx.respond(embed=embed)```
When I run an admin-only command, i still get the error in my terminal and an embed is never sent nor is test printed

[opal storm]

I'm working on a system that whenever it detects that someone has like ads in their status it removes some roles, that's done but now I want to give them back too when they remove their status and the bot wouldn't know who ppl are staff and who aren't so it might just give staff to some random ppl who had ads and then removed it so I want to make it so that whenever the user removes ads it gives back the roles it removed.

[opal storm]

maybe because you have your own checks? if yes do commands.CheckFaliure for that command, tbh just check it using the command itslef

[hazy loom]

I highly suggest to create a database in order to keep the roles ID they had and just fetch them whenever they remove it

[crimson coral]

on_command_error or on_application_command_error

[opal storm]

make it so that if this user has the role or whatever they can run it else bye ybe

[opal storm]

Yeah well I don't really want to make it this complex tbh

[hazy loom]

Do you have another way to save what roles they had?

[crimson coral]

^ you need some way to save it externally

[opal storm]

idk maybe a json file since its not gonna be that big(I think)

if it is prob a sql db

[hazy loom]

Ofc it's one way

[opal storm]

well I know I have to store that

but idk how to

[hazy loom]

But in a database the data will be highly easier to access

[opal storm]

I really suck with dbs.

[crimson coral]

a db would be ideal, but if it's on a small scale then a json will suffice

[hazy loom]

Here are your options:

1. database with mysql
2. json file
3. gspread

gspread a google spreadsheets api that will help you to store data

Used it and it's great, before I paid for external database

[opal storm]

why can't I go with a SQLite3 file?

[hazy loom]

Actually, you can do it with .db file, i think it's doable

[opal storm]

I mean I'm actually working on making a warning system with PostgresSQL

[opal storm]

Yep.

Or I can use .sqlite3

Same thing, mostly.

[hazy loom]

Or that

[crimson coral]

there's nothing stopping you

[hazy loom]

xDDD

[opal storm]

The thing is, I know like nothing about dbs.

[dapper quiver]

Ah thanks, that was the issue

[opal storm]

so that's why I'm here.

[hazy loom]

There you go, something to learn

[opal storm]

I've been trying to learn for a month

[hazy loom]

Always learn new things that will help you in the future 🙂

[hazy loom]

Took me same time to learn how to integrate any db with python

It's confusing at first but it's just query with a command executor

[opal storm]

Welp, I really kinda need this done asap and I don't have a month

I guess it is

[hazy loom]

Are you building any large-scale bot?

[opal storm]

for now I can just scrap this for now

[opal storm]

It's a private bot

For one server, not much

[hazy loom]

For one server

Use Json man

[opal storm]

That's why I'm saying I could indeed use json

yeahhh

but I'm expecting the server to get really big

Probably.

[hazy loom]

For now use json

Later implement a database system

[opal storm]

(I don't know how to implement this into it)

Like I know how to use JSONs but idk what to do

[hazy loom]

I have a great site for it gimme a sec

https://www.geeksforgeeks.org/reading-and-writing-json-to-a-file-in-python/

[opal storm]

I'm saying like what inputs should I do.

I know how to do stuff with JSON

Like what should I do?

[hazy loom]

Oh lol

Well, you want to save the roles they had so I would save the role ids

[opal storm]

Make a list? or in a dict I make a name with the user's id and then the value would be the role ids>?

idk what to

dude im just gonna scrap this I expected this to be like a 1-2 hour project and ive been doing it all day lmao

[hazy loom]

Like that:

member_id: [
  role_id1
  role_idf2
]

[opal storm]

{ 123456789: [09147981751, 5018250632613]```

Like that?

[hazy loom]

Yep

[opal storm]

(Doesn't know how to give the roles back)

[hazy loom]

member.add_role(id) I think

[opal storm]

I know its add_roles but uh, how tf would I do it ;-;

[hazy loom]

bot.get_role

[opal storm]

dude I know how to give it back, if I didn't i'd google it or look at docs

OMG but

how do i get the value

like how do u get values from json from dicts

ik u can just do dict_var["thename"]

[hazy loom]

ye

[opal storm]

oh wait json.load

im stupid

[hazy loom]

Basically

3

[opal storm]

json.load a thing

o m g

[hazy loom]

okay my neice is typing stuff brb

[opal storm]

;-;

ok ill write out the code and show u till then

[hazy loom]

not joki n

oo+f

BRB

[hazy loom]

Okay i'm back

[opal storm]

yeah just writing some code

1s

[hazy loom]

k

[dapper quiver]

I dont really need exact code but the steps I need to take to do this. How do I make a verification bot work the way thinks like carl or verification bot do? With those images and everything

[opal storm]

okay so

there will prob be more than one role

            with open("roles.json") as f:
                dict = json.load(f)
                values = dict[str(after.id)]
                for i in range(len(values)):
                    ```

and im doing this

and I should prob define variables with a number or do I just define em and then get it?

actually nvm fixed my prob

[hazy loom]

So you want something like this? Just instead of this message to be verify process

[hazy loom]

Don't know if you know but you can use pprint to output it nicely to the json file

[dapper quiver]

Not reaction roles, lemme get an ss

[hazy loom]

Yeah that'll help actually

[opal storm]

using indent=4 ik

[hazy loom]

Okay nice, great

[opal storm]

Okay got the stuff working, how do I check if the status is nothing? cause its actually a tuple I think

[hazy loom]

Never learned about the status thing, never got the chance to

[opal storm]

it is

its a tupole

[hazy loom]

If you say

[opal storm]

docs say so

[dapper quiver]

I cant find an example so heres my terrible ms paint example

[opal storm]

how do I check if theres no more ads in the status?

[hazy loom]

artist for sure, idk what you want still sry 😄

[opal storm]

I can't just check for a empty tuple as ppl might their status with something else

than just keep it empty

sooo what do i do

[dapper quiver]

okay well, the numbers are randomly generated, the user has to type out those numbers that have lines on them and there will be bait numbers in the background

[hazy loom]

OOOH like reCaptcha?

[opal storm]

yeah

[dapper quiver]

YEQAH

[opal storm]

exactly like it

lmao

isnt there a bot to do that already?

[hazy loom]

bruh the painting

[dapper quiver]

i want to make my own for customizabilities sake

[opal storm]

yeah yeah ik

[hazy loom]

There's also a bot to stream music and I'm still doing one xDDD

[dapper quiver]

yep

[opal storm]

l m a o

so can anyone help me?

[opal storm]

.

[hazy loom]

Yeah I'm not it

[opal storm]

cause I don't know how to do that im stupid

can u just check me if there is not a perticular thing in a string

like can u help me check if theres no "discord.gg/" in a string

[hazy loom]

Check for status, if there's a status you can check if it contains a link to another discord server which is not yours aka invite link or custom link

[opal storm]

thats simple python

[opal storm]

dude ive done that already

now I need help if someone has removed the ads from their status

cause we can't rely on everyone just removing their status they might change it to smth else

like have ads at start, then change it to "hey" or smth

[hazy loom]

Maybe do on status update? if there's an event like that

[opal storm]

yeah I do it on that

but how do i check if theres no more ads in a string

[hazy loom]

Same as checked the discord one

I assume

[opal storm]

wait I already have the thing where it checks for it

so can't i just use an "else" statement

[hazy loom]

Yeah

Yep

[opal storm]

like if its in there alr else u got ur roles back

[hazy loom]

About you, I think you can do it with regex to generate it for you

Like a pass generator

[opal storm]

h o w do i put stuff inside of it now, ive did the thing where it takes data and gives roles back but how do I put the role ids in the dict?

[dapper quiver]

Im more concerned about getting the numbers on the image itself

[hazy loom]

loader[member_id] will return the list

[dapper quiver]

the generation is fairly simple but not sure how I put those numbers on my image

[hazy loom]

Yeah, gimme a sec I think there's an actual api

[dapper quiver]

ooh thanks

[hazy loom]

https://www.geeksforgeeks.org/generate-captcha-using-python/

Found it

# Import the following modules
from captcha.image import ImageCaptcha
 
# Create an image instance of the given size
image = ImageCaptcha(width = 280, height = 90)
 
# Image captcha text
captcha_text = 'GeeksforGeeks' 
 
# generate the image of the given text
data = image.generate(captcha_text) 
 
# write the image on the given file and save it
image.write(captcha_text, 'CAPTCHA.png')

[hazy loom]

Is that what you meant?

[dapper quiver]

uh lemme see

YES

INDEED

[hazy loom]

instead of the dict file remember the json object gives you exactly that so you can use the member_id the fetch the removed roles

[dapper quiver]

thanks so much!

[hazy loom]

No problem, ping me if you need anything else

[dapper quiver]

ofc tyvm

[opal storm]

what to put inside of it

like how to make the list

[hazy loom]

{
  id: [
    role1,
    role2,
  ]
}

If that's your list then when you do json.load(file) then you can just use loader[id], it'll give the list

[opal storm]

hey how to do it INSIDE OF IT

like I know what to do manually

I need it to do it automatically

or I might aswell not make the feature

the thing is, not everyone has certain roles

most ppl dont have staff roles, so when they do(I have a check if they have staff role or not) I want to add that in too

[hazy loom]

whenever you remove the role and get it's id you just put it inside a list and dump it to the json

[opal storm]

idk how to dump a lot of ids that are from different checks at once.

its like

  ok yeah time to add this to it
if this user has this special role:
  add this to the db
  whatever...```

[hazy loom]

give the json more options like:

{
  id: {
    staffRoles: [],
    roles: []
    }
}

If u have more options you can just put the member_id as it's own dictionary which will indeed help you out

remember it's your code

[opal storm]

B R O

i have like 4 checks

[hazy loom]

And?

[opal storm]

so make a new thing for each of em?

[hazy loom]

if have_ads():
  role1 = member.remove_role()
  updateRoles(role1)

You don't have to do for each role a check

[opal storm]

uhm what if they dont have that role

[hazy loom]

Just one function if it's a stuff role ( yes you'll have to do a list that contains all of them as you decide cuz discord roles has no groups ) and one for regular ( anything not in the list )

[opal storm]

that'd just give an error.

[hazy loom]

if role in ctx.author.roles:
  do stuff

Pycord gives you a lot in terms of clean code ( one of the main reasons I switched a few days ago ) and efficiency

[obsidian garnet]

One message removed from a suspended account.

[hazy loom]

tasks.loop

[obsidian garnet]

One message removed from a suspended account.

[hazy loom]

https://docs.pycord.dev/en/master/ext/tasks/index.html

See here

[opal storm]

I do that already?

[obsidian garnet]

One message removed from a suspended account.

[hazy loom]

Then you check if they have the roles

[opal storm]

They do.

I mean if they do

[hazy loom]

So you remove it?

[opal storm]

how tf would I add it to the dbb

yes i remove

[hazy loom]

oh

[opal storm]

and add to db but idk how

            if activity.name.startswith("https://") or "discord.gg/" in activity.name or ".gg/" in activity.name:
                print("This is the longer if statement, it has detected ad")
                # Check for roles
                if member_role in after.roles:
                    await after.remove_roles(member_role)
                if staff_role in after.roles:
                    await after.remove_roles(staff_role)```

how to add the stuff after I remove too?

[hazy loom]

        with open("file.json", 'r') as f:
            loader = json.load(f)
        loader["something"] = [] # data you want to dump instead
        with open("file.json", 'r') as f:
            json.dump(loader, f)

I think it'll work cuz when you dump the files it'll overwrite

[opal storm]

dude

im not asking for this

im aksing how to input the stupid role into it

because in each check I have to do that

and if theres a value there i dont want to overwrite it

[hazy loom]

.append

if not contains: append

[opal storm]

ok so

loaded[str(userid)].append(whatever)

[hazy loom]

yep

[opal storm]

i completely forgot about .append

im so stupid

omgaosjtoiayhstj

[hazy loom]

🙂

[hazy loom]

If you ever feel stupid you forgot ask an html coder how to center a div

They'll check it

[opal storm]

OMFG

LMFAOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

[hazy loom]

xDDDD

[dapper quiver]

hope im not bothering you!

# Create an image instance of the given size
    image = ImageCaptcha(width=280, height=90)
    captcha_text = random.randint(120000, 999999)
    # Image captcha text
    captcha_text = str(captcha_text)

    # generate the image of the given text
    data = image.generate(captcha_text)

    # write the image on the given file and save it
    image.write(captcha_text, 'captcha/CAPTCHA.png')
    await person.send('Go ahead and type what the captcha sent below has. Do not add any spaces, if your answer is wrong, you will have start the process again!.', file=discord.File("CAPTCHA.png"))
    print(captcha_text)
    msg = await bot.wait_for("message", check=lambda check: check.author.id == ctx.author.id)
    print(msg.content)
    if(msg.content == captcha_text):
        await person.send('Correct! Role should have been added, if you did not get the role, please contact Powerhouse_')
    else:
        await person.send('Incorrect, run /verify again.')```
The check runs even if the message wasnt sent in dms, how can I make a check for that?

[hazy loom]

In discord.py I used wait_for so he can wait for a dm back

IDK how to do that in pycord

https://docs.pycord.dev/en/master/api.html?highlight=wait_for#discord.Bot.wait_for

[dapper quiver]

im also using wait_for but if a message is sent by that user in a non-dm channel, it still registers it as an answer

[hazy loom]

You want it to be sent in a dm or in the channel?

[dapper quiver]

dm

the bot dms the user with the verification process

but if the user sends a message in a different channel, it still registers that message as an answer

[hazy loom]

Gimme a sec

[dapper quiver]

alr

[hazy loom]

def make_sequence(seq):
    if seq is None:
        return ()
    if isinstance(seq, Sequence) and not isinstance(seq, str):
        return seq
    else:
        return (seq,)

def message_check(channel=None, author=None, content=None, ignore_bot=True, lower=True):
    channel = make_sequence(channel)
    author = make_sequence(author)
    content = make_sequence(content)
    if lower:
        content = tuple(c.lower() for c in content)
    def check(message):
        if ignore_bot and message.author.bot:
            return False
        if channel and message.channel not in channel:
            return False
        if author and message.author not in author:
            return False
        actual_content = message.content.lower() if lower else message.content
        if content and actual_content not in content:
            return False
        return True
    return check

This is the functions I did a while back

Like discord.py 1.7.2

Before pycord was even released

So IDK if it'll work now but it used to work

'message', check=message_check(channel=ctx.author.dm_channel)

And this was inside the wait_for

DISCLAIMER: All functions were copied from stackoverflow so I do understand it's purpose 😄

[opal storm]

I use py values.remove(i) in my for i loop but it gives me: ValueError: list.remove(x): x not in list I tried doing i+1 and even .remove(1) but its the same

wait shoot

[hazy loom]

values.contains(x)
values.remove(x)

[opal storm]

i accidently replied

I don't use x tho

I use i

but SOMEHOW it just thinkgs theres x

[hazy loom]

Wait, you remove it by index?

[opal storm]

yeah?

[hazy loom]

If you're looping with a ranged and a list fixed value it'll always be shorter

[opal storm]

                    for i in range(len(values)):
                        print(f"values.remove({i+1})")
                        roleid = values[i]
                        values.remove(1)
                        role = guild.get_role(roleid)
                        await after.add_roles(role)```

I tried +1

(ofc in the .remove but its in the print statement cuz yes)

[hazy loom]

oh lol

[opal storm]

the remove is 1 now cause Im just testing if it works

[hazy loom]

But u always remove and the range doesn't change

[opal storm]

it does?

[hazy loom]

Use while to prevent any length errors

Not sure

[opal storm]

its based on how many stuff is inside the list itself

                    values = dict[str(after.id)]

i use len(values)

so it changes to however much stuff is inside it

can u just tell me a way to remove everything from the dict when im giving roles back?

[hazy loom]

I think it's with .clear or .empty

Not sure

[opal storm]

its a list

not a dict

nvm

[hazy loom]

list.clear

[opal storm]

https://www.techiedelight.com/remove-all-items-from-list-python/

[hazy loom]

yeah it's with .clear

Now I need help, is there a way to get passed arguments from a command in a check using the ctx? ( in slash it's ctx.interaction.data but is there a way to do the same for extcontext )

[dapper quiver]

how do i add this to my previous code/lambda in the bot.wait_for

[hazy loom]

and message_check \

[crimson coral]

i think ctx.args or ctx.kwargs may work

[hazy loom]

It said None

[crimson coral]

there's also ctx.current_parameter if you need that one specifically in your check

[hazy loom]

Returned empty

[crimson coral]

might be that args and kwargs are only processed after invocation then

[hazy loom]

For interaction there's a perfect and simple way but for ctx there's not

Maybe there's no way to do it?

[hazy loom]

Yeah you were right

thanks tho

[hazy loom]

Is there a way to check error handling for bridgeCommands?

[dapper quiver]

    msg = await bot.wait_for("message", check=lambda check: check.author.id == ctx.author.id)

Soo, how can i add a check for if the msg.content was sent in a dm?

[sudden path]

Ctx.guild == None

[unborn cliff]

whats rc1 for pycord guys

[crimson coral]

release candidate 1

[dapper quiver]

many thanks, that did it for me :D

[sudden path]

Welcome

[hazy loom]

Is there a way to invoke another bridge command?

Instead of retyping everything and such

[crimson coral]

there's various functions for invoking another command, but you need a valid Context object

one weird hack i like is to grab an existing message, edit message.content to the command I wanna run and then run bot.process_commands on the message but that might not be ideal

otherwise you want ctx.invoke(command) with any other args

[sudden path]

Can I set perms for specific subcommands? Or discord limitation

[crimson coral]

though come to think of it im not sure if bridgecontext has invoke

uhh i think that is indeed a discord limitation

perms are limited to top level iirc

[sudden path]

thanks discord

[hazy loom]

I'll try it actually

[hazy loom]

For some reason it tells me I don't have an attribute called client

whadohell

Thats so strange, if someone knows please help i'm struggling, using BridgeCommands

[crimson coral]

self.client

[gilded widget]

init not int lol

[hazy loom]

BRUH

[hazy loom]

Okay ok ok

I promise

I'm not stupid

I'm tired af

😦

[gilded widget]

all good, happens to the best of us lmao

[hazy loom]

xDDDD

[daring flint]

I have a Message Command that calls a Modal. When the Modal is submitted, I need to get the Message it was originally called from.

I tried interaction.original_message() but got an "Unknown Webhook" error.

Is there a better way of keeping track of it? Could I pass the Message into my custom Modal constructor?

(Edit: Yeah, I think that might be the best option; pass in the message to the Modal class; reference as self.message)

[thin trellis]

What am I doing wrong?
I tried to use the new method for slash command options

Used the officcial example there its also not working,
This one: https://github.com/Pycord-Development/pycord/blob/master/examples/app_commands/slash_options.py

[hazy loom]

Is there a way to let the interaction wait for command process to be complete?

[inner iris]

What's the difference between discord.Bot and commands.Bot or bot.slash_command, commands.slash_command and discord.slash_command?

[frigid lark]

Can I get the time from a user?

[inner iris]

you mean the timezone?

this may be a start
https://stackoverflow.com/questions/72080488/is-it-possible-to-get-the-users-time-zone-from-author-or-message-in-discord-py

[frigid lark]

I use datetime.datetime.now() at the moment

[midnight cedar]

if you mean a user's timezone, no

[frigid lark]

should I use utcnow() or now()?

[midnight cedar]

depends on your usecase

i usually use utcnow

just for consistency between machines

[crimson coral]

think it's an issue with the enum/decorator style options... wooo channel options

not even the tuple version works anymore rip

aaaand discord.channel also broken

at least discord.abc.GuildChannel still works

[crimson coral]

very much depends on what you need; discord.Bot allows application commands, while commands.Bot adds support for prefix commands

pretty sure all the slash_command decorators are interchangeable though

[inner iris]

so discord.Bot doesn't allow prefixed commands?

[crimson coral]

yep

[inner iris]

hm. ok

[crimson coral]

also if you're using commands.Bot, you need to specify intents for prefix commands to work

[inner iris]

and is there any other difference besides of that?

[crimson coral]

generally just better command management, there's quite a lot in the commands extension that works best with commands.Bot

[earnest sail]

there seems to be a max limit of choices discord will show when using the autocomplete. What is the size of that limit?

[crimson coral]

You can read about it at https://docs.pycord.dev/en/master/ext/commands/index.html and https://guide.pycord.dev/category/commands

[crimson coral]

looks to be 25

[earnest sail]

thank you

[inner iris]

ok, so ext.commands is probably the better option?

[crimson coral]

though the list of options you return can be any size

yeah it's pretty useful

[frigid lark]

for me its +2h

[inner iris]

Why do I have to use ctx.respond? Is there more to it other than just replying to the invocation? And why does it say The application did not respond if I don't respond?

[sudden path]

If 3 seconds isn't fast enough for you, you can defer the interaction.

[slow dome]

https://discord.com/developers/docs/interactions/application-commands

[crimson coral]

discord requirement

you have to respond to every interaction

[inner iris]

pretty unnecessary isn't it?

but if discord says we have to respond, we'll do it xD

[crimson coral]

to some extent yeah, but it has its own benefits

and you can just make the response ephemeral

[inner iris]

Can I respond with nothing?

[crimson coral]

has to be a message

[inner iris]

hm

[crimson coral]

every command call, button press, dropdown selection, modal submission, and any other interaction you can perform

has to have a message response

[inner iris]

lol

wtf why xD

doesn't make sense to me but I'm just a dumb little programmer

[crimson coral]

well close enough anyway

it sounds strange at first but after actually implementing your stuff it's not that bad lol

[inner iris]

yeah I guess that's right

I'm just starting to use the interaction stuff...

I like it and also don't

but maybe I'll like it more, when I get to know it better.

thx for the answer anyway

[earnest sail]

for some reason... my first slash command is not registering

how do I enable logs or something so I can see what's going on?

it's happening on all of my bots

[worthy bobcat]

will the view deleted when the message was deleted

[slender lintel]

did you authorize the bot to create commands in a server

Also does anyone know if it's possible to make the bot ping a role using ctx.respond, I tried using AllowedMentions but it didn't work

[slow dome]

modals, too

[earnest sapphire]

anyone here knows python well?

I have an issue with my terminal

I tried python manage.py makemigrations but its giving me errors stating No migrations to apply.

[crude temple]

Can we have label with more than 45 characters in modals??

getting this error

In data.components.0.components.0.label: Must be 45 or fewer in length.
In data.components.1.components.0.label: Must be 45 or fewer in length.
In data.components.2.components.0.label: Must be 45 or fewer in length.
In data.components.3.components.0.label: Must be 45 or fewer in length.

[crimson gale]

api limitation

[midnight cedar]

apparently not

[warm tundra]

i just need to get the server name

but ctx.guild.name is not working

error: Guild object has no attribute guild

[frigid lark]

That should work...

[warm tundra]

isn't

i don't know why

[frigid lark]

Do you have intents?

@warm tundra

[warm tundra]

ye

all are on and enabled

[vagrant mortar]

I have 2 options in a command, with both of them being autocompletes.
Can I influence the autocomplete of option 2, depending on the selected option 1?

So for example this:
Option 1 = A, that would make Option 2 autocomplete from [A, B, C]
Option 1 = B, that would make Option 2 autocomplete from [D, E, F]

@slash_command()
async def send_msg(
        self,

Im trying to take channel input as a TextChannel, it works on the discord side, but when i run the slash command , i get this error

[frigid lark]

you need the alpha/git version

!install

[robust nebula]

Install pycord:

pip uninstall discord.py
pip install py-cord

Install pycord beta:

pip uninstall discord.py
pip install py-cord==2.0.0b7

Install pycord alpha from git:

pip uninstall discord.py
pip install git+https://github.com/Pycord-Development/pycord

[frigid lark]

@client.command()
async def guild_name(ctx):
    await ctx.send(ctx.guild.name)

this should send the Server name

[crimson gale]

you should be able to

[vagrant mortar]

How would that work?

As from what I can see, you cannot access Option 1's variable, in Option 2.

[crimson gale]

https://docs.pycord.dev/en/master/api.html#discord.AutocompleteContext.options yes you can

[vagrant mortar]

Hmmmmmmmmm....

[crimson gale]

A name to value mapping of the options that the user has selected before this option.

[vagrant mortar]

so it would return {"Option 1 variable": "A"} I suppose then?

As that would work 🤔

[crimson gale]

yep

returns a dict

[vagrant mortar]

cool cool.

Must've overlooked, or misread that attribute then... Thanks 🙂

[thin trellis]

Yea hope they fix it soon

[warm tundra]

anyone???

[crimson gale]

intents?

[warm tundra]

on

[crimson gale]

what intents are you giving your bot?

[warm tundra]

all are on

[crimson gale]

show me your code

[crimson gale]

doc is the guild object

[hollow moth]

How can I set default permissions (Permissions v2) for a slash command group?

[warm tundra]

it's the context

[crimson gale]

in an event there is no context object

on_guild_join only provides the Guild object it joined

[warm tundra]

oh

so do i just remove the doc???

[crimson gale]

youre trying to access the guild attribute of a Guild which doesnt exist

the argument name has no effect

[warm tundra]

ok...

k it worked

thanks for your help

[hollow moth]

Is there a limit on the number of items on a modal?

[crimson gale]

4

or 5

i forgot which of the two

[hollow moth]

Yikes ok thanks

[crimson coral]

yep 5

pretty much everything related to UI components is in fives right now

5 buttons per row, 5 rows per view, 25 options per dropdown...

[plush lintel]

can anyone teach me how to provide an available file to the pillow package?

[vocal crane]

what are the max options u can pass in a slash command? and what are the max arguments u can put in one option

[ornate spade]

25 and 25

iirc

[vocal crane]

Thank you :)

[vocal crane]

I still get a error that 'APPLICATION_COMMAND_TOO_LARGE', 'message': 'Command exceeds maximum size (4000)

[solar berry]

Is there a way to get lines from the logs in the console (where the prints go) and send it as a message

[upbeat hill]

how to get a bot to create a new channel in a specific category?

[vocal crane]

i think there is a command like .create_category_channel

[upbeat hill]

yeah. but keep getting errors for the category aspect

[vocal crane]

try .create_text_channel('name', category='category')

[upbeat hill]

still getting errors

[vocal crane]

what is the eroors?

errors*

[upbeat hill]

ye sorry

[vocal crane]

oh

[upbeat hill]

oh?

[vocal crane]

'str' object has no attribute id

are u like extracting .id from a string?

can i see the code?

[vocal crane]

am pretty sure if u use the ip u use is without the ' '

if u wanna use the ' ' just straight up put the name of the category

[upbeat hill]

getting the same error

[vocal crane]

go to line 1052

ohhh bruh

line 1160 you forgot to close ur ()

[vocal crane]

also i wanna see this line cuz it says str object has no attribute id so the problem might be there

[upbeat hill]

its only 88 lines long atm

[vocal crane]

then why

let me debug this shit real quick

am a noobie but still lol

is that the full error?

[upbeat hill]

yep

[vocal crane]

okay give me a moment

okay thx

[slender lintel]

Hey how i can with buttons open a modal?
i dont find a docs to this..

[crimson gale]

await interaction.response.send_modal

i believe it takes a Modal object that is to be sent to the user

@slender lintel

and yes it takes the Modal object that is to be sent to the user

[slender lintel]

and so how i can options in the modal? how give a number#

[crimson gale]

nope

[slender lintel]

so this with number is a example

[crimson gale]

only text fields

[brittle sundial]

[slender lintel]

Ohh and how i can options ?

[crimson gale]

none

[brittle sundial]

Why am i getting this error. Can someone help please. Thanks.

[crimson gale]

you have to sanitize/validate when the interaction comes through

[slender lintel]

does that mean nothing?

[crimson gale]

yep

you cant limit them in terms of what they can receive

[slender lintel]

mhmm okay thanks despite it

[crimson gale]

did you set the db attribute of the object?

[brittle sundial]

no

[crimson gale]

then set it

[brittle sundial]

it worked ty

[upbeat hill]

how would you make a ticket naming system(e.g. ticket -0001)?

[slender lintel]

i search a number (1799) when is not correct come a error but dont working..

        if 1799 == None:
            await interaction.response.send_message(f"Falscher Code!")
        else:
            await interaction.response.send_message(f"Geschafft! Du hast dich erfolgreich verifiziert!")

[crimson coral]

uh....

1799 == None is always gonna be false

[slender lintel]

and how is correct?

[crimson coral]

what are you trying to check

[slender lintel]

if the code is written correctly

[upbeat hill]

any idea why this wont work?

[slender lintel]

you know also 1799 is the correct code when the user but 1029 type a error

[crimson coral]

still unsure what you're trying to do there

[crimson coral]

self.CloseButtonView() maybe? where did you define it

also it should be kticket.send, not kticket.id.send

[slender lintel]

Mhmm 1799 is a code (is the only correct code) so when but a user not 1799 typed come a error message yk?

[crimson coral]

should be uppercase discord.ui.View in the subclass

[crimson coral]

what variable is the code

[slender lintel]

So here

i have tryed with variable but not working

[crimson coral]

ahh i think you've misunderstood how it works

[slender lintel]

yeah maybe

[crimson coral]

so you're trying to check if they've entered 1799 in the modal

[slender lintel]

yes

[crimson coral]

you can get what they entered by accessing self.children[0].value

[upbeat hill]

how do you subclass a button?

[crimson coral]

im talking about this

[slender lintel]

and how can i check this code?

[crimson coral]

but subclassing a button would be similar to a view

[crimson coral]

just check if self.children[0].value == "1799"

[slender lintel]

so?

[upbeat hill]

yeah atm thats its own class

[crimson coral]

that should work

[crimson coral]

yeah, you did discord.ui.view instead of discord.ui.View

[upbeat hill]

ive changed that

[crimson coral]

still not working?

[upbeat hill]

nope

[crimson coral]

can you show the error

[slender lintel]

yeah its working but 1799 is the correct code.. not the not correct code

[crimson coral]

which is why you have the else, right?

[slender lintel]

Oh i have see it xD Im sry

[crimson coral]

all good

[upbeat hill]

it wont run as its: "CloseBUttonView" is not defined

[crimson coral]

oh you made a typo lol

reread your code

[upbeat hill]

sorry

[crimson coral]

all good

[slender lintel]

can I also do this in a variable?

[crimson coral]

yep

so for example, since code is a list you can change it to if self.children[0].value in code

which would let you do multiple "correct" codes

[slender lintel]

so?

[crimson coral]

not == codes, in codes

because you are checking if an object is inside the list

[upbeat hill]

do you by any chance know how to make a ticket counter naming system
(e.g. ticket - 0001 , ticket - 0002)?

[crimson coral]

well you'd just have to save your counter to another file

[slender lintel]

Thank you!

[crimson coral]

all good

[crimson coral]

tbh counter systems aren't really necessary either, you could just generate a random number and it'd have the same functionality

pycord also has the built in utility discord.utils.generate_snowflake() that'll generate a discord-style ID which is pretty likely to be completely unique

[upbeat hill]

okie, thanks, does pycord have a readthedocs page?

[crimson coral]

https://docs.pycord.dev/en/master/index.html / https://docs.pycord.dev/en/master/api.html

[upbeat hill]

thanks

[crimson coral]

also https://guide.pycord.dev/ for a more step-by-step resource

[slender lintel]

last question for to day why does update my modal not the code

[crimson coral]

don't quite understand the question

though if i had to guess, you need to restart the bot to update your callback

[slender lintel]

yeah but how can i fix this?

[crimson coral]

ehhhh

it's hard to figure out because discord is pretty weird when it comes to syncing callbacks

[slender lintel]

mmhmm is that not working a random number to generate?

[inner iris]

How can I get the full command that got called by the user? I'm speaking of a slash command of course.

[unique glacier]

Wdym

[crimson coral]

ctx.command.qualified_name is the best you can get without any extra work

if you want the full command including options, what the user entered etc, you should experiment with ctx.interaction.data["options"]

since that will include everything

[inner iris]

yep that's what I want, thx

[upbeat hill]

how do you delete a channel after a delay

[crimson coral]

await asyncio.sleep(seconds) if you want the command to stall for a bit

[stable tiger]

delete_after= param in .send or msg.delete() after you did what you want

[crimson coral]

note if it's via a slash command or other interaction and it's lasting more than 3 seconds you should defer

[upbeat hill]

Ignoring exception in view <CloseButtonView timeout=180.0 children=1> for item <Button style=<ButtonStyle.secondary: 2> url=None disabled=False label='Close' emoji=<PartialEmoji animated=False name='🔒' id=None> row=None>:

[inner iris]

Do command checks like guild_only or is_owner also work with slash commands or only with the prefixed commands?

[frigid lark]

It work with both

[inner iris]

perfect

Is there somewhere a good guide on what to change when switching to slash commands?

[frigid lark]

https://github.com/Pycord-Development/pycord/tree/master/examples/app_commands

[inner iris]

That's not really what I need

[frigid lark]

you dont really have to change so much stuff

[inner iris]

Do I have to change more other that using ctx.respond and discord.slash_command?

[frigid lark]

you dont need to use aliases from the prefix commands, only if you would use bridge commands

https://guide.pycord.dev/extensions/bridge/

[crimson coral]

no, quite literally await asyncio.sleep()

it's a separate function that waits for the amount of seconds you specify

then you can delete after that line

[crimson coral]

delete()

[upbeat hill]

it works but im getting an error:
Ignoring exception in view <CloseButtonView timeout=180.0 children=1> for item <Button style=<ButtonStyle.secondary: 2> url=None disabled=False label='Close' emoji=<PartialEmoji animated=False name='🔒' id=None> row=None>:

discord.errors.NotFound: 404 Not Found (error code: 10062): Unknown interaction

[inner iris]

I don't need to or I can't?
Do aliases not work with slash commands?

[crimson coral]

ah you need to respond to the interaction

how is this callback triggered?

[upbeat hill]

button

[frigid lark]

you can add them but they wouldn´t work, with a bridge command it would work

[crimson coral]

i recommend either:

1. replace the self.channel.send with await interaction.response.send_message
2. leave the self.channel.send, but at the start of the callback, you do something like await interaction.response.send_message("Deleting ticket...")

[inner iris]

ok so if I would really want to have an alias for a slash command I would have to register the same command again but with a different name?

[upbeat hill]

thank you so much

[crimson coral]

all good

[crimson coral]

kind of... but this isn't really recommended

[inner iris]

How do I register a slash command that works in dm's too?

[crimson coral]

discord treats them as completely different commands

which will cause issues with permissions and such

generally slash commands don't need aliases because you can just search for the command you need

[crimson coral]

has to be a global command; no guild_ids allowed

[inner iris]

oh ok, makes sense

and how would I make a global slash command that won't show up in a dm?

[crimson coral]

add the discord.guild_only decorator... i think?

@discord.guild_only()

i think this might be broken in rc1 though

though there's a pr you can apply if you want it working

[inner iris]

No, it's not that urgent, just wanted to know

[crimson coral]

fair enough

[inner iris]

Can I do command checks on command groups? Like defining a whole command group as guild_only instead of doing it for every command in this group.

[midnight cedar]

It got merged

[unborn cliff]

whats the cmd for pycord rc ?

[sudden path]

py-cord==2.0.0rc1

[unborn cliff]

oh

[glad saffron]

Hi guys, how do I get the ID of the user who sends a command?

[unborn cliff]

ctx.author.id

i think

?rtfm id

?rtm

?rtm ID

[glad saffron]

Whenever I used ctx, it says its not defined

😧

[unborn cliff]

bc you cant use a parameter definition inside the parameter list

its not pythonic

[glad saffron]

Oh

Hmm

What should I do in this situation?

[unborn cliff]

def foo(var1 , var2= var1)

wont work

do it inside the function

[glad saffron]

Ahhh okay

Thank you!

So just do the logic in the code?

[unborn cliff]

do something like

user.default = ctx.author.id

[glad saffron]

Like if var2 != true, user = ctx.author.id?

[unborn cliff]

@south ermine

[glad saffron]

Okok thank you!! im gonna try it

[unborn cliff]

I have this. And it still wont wokr :I

[unborn cliff]

that img is my issue

[unborn cliff]

I think this will work @glad saffron

[glad saffron]

Wait, I dont understand what you mean by that

Also I'm sorry but I dont think I'll be able to help you with your issue I am really new to Pycord

[unborn cliff]

def foo(ctx ,user : Option(str, description=bar):

this

user now has an attribute called default

correct ?

[glad saffron]

Uhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

Not sure

[glad saffron]

Where would the user.default = ctx.author.id be in this function?

[unborn cliff]

Within the function where user is instantiated

[glad saffron]

I'm a bit confused but I think i get what you mean

actually no i am very confuysed

[unborn cliff]

You have a param called user

[glad saffron]

😅

Mhm

[stable tiger]

You can do

foo(ctx, member: discord.Member = None)

And then member = member or ctx.author

[unborn cliff]

they want the id to be the default

[glad saffron]

Okok I think I should explain what I want the thingy to look like

[unborn cliff]

now under the function definition set the users default attribute to the ctx.author.id

[glad saffron]

I want there to be an optional thing you can respond with but if you dont do the optional thing, then your ID would be the default but if you answer it then the person you put id's would be the default

Okok ill try that

would this work?

[unborn cliff]

https://tenor.com/view/open-season-boog-come-on-give-it-a-try-give-it-a-try-give-it-a-shot-gif-23419117

[glad saffron]

it's still set as a required option

😧

unless it hasnt updated yet

[unborn cliff]

wait dont have a default inside the Option

[glad saffron]

okok

[glad saffron]

Its still set to required

Maybe I should reinvite the bot to see if its just a bug with discord?

Also I tried running it and it gave me this 😅 discord.errors.ApplicationCommandInvokeError: Application Command raised an exception: AttributeError: 'Member' object has no attribute 'default'

[unborn cliff]

Gah

I thought it would work mah bad

[glad saffron]

Nonono its fine

That looks like it should work

[unborn cliff]

Member /

oh

[unborn cliff]

try adding this back maybe

[glad saffron]

Ughhhhhh

Ok this code it works

But it's still set as a required option

I'm gonna reinvite the bot to see if its just a bug with discord

[unborn cliff]

ok

[glad saffron]

IT WAS

YAYYYY

its now optional

😭

thank you for the help!!

Hopefully your problem gets resolved too

[glad saffron]

Also just out of curiosity, why does your cmd look like that/

[unborn cliff]

i knew what i was trying worked lol

[unborn cliff]

its terminal based editor

[glad saffron]

Ah

[unborn cliff]

editing directly in the vps

[glad saffron]

it says ubuntu, but youre on windows?

[unborn cliff]

its vps that runs ubuntu

its ssh

[glad saffron]

Also your bio has these date thingies how do you do that?

[unborn cliff]

unix timestamp

[unborn cliff]

its vi

[glad saffron]

Ahhhh okay I see i see 😁

Whats the advantage using that over VScode>

[unborn cliff]

its just used to quickly edit stuff without having to replace files in a vps

lol

[glad saffron]

i see

[dapper quiver]

@bot.slash_command(name='statuscheck', guild_ids=slash_guilds)
async def statuscheck(ctx):
    await ctx.respond(ctx.author.status)```
For some reason, this always returns offline no matter what my status is, any ideas?

[gilded widget]

yeah, known bug, fixed in ##1365 but it needs testing before merge into master

[supple ravine]

https://github.com/Pycord-Development/pycord/pull/1365

[gilded widget]

current workaround is to do ctx.guild.get_member(ctx.author)

[dapper quiver]

Oh thanks, how can I download the py-cord with the fixed version?

[gilded widget]

its not currently in pycord's master branch so you'd have to clone the branch that i have it on

should be merged soon if you just wanna use the workaround for now

[dapper quiver]

Alright yeah ill just use the workaround for now

[unborn cliff]

pip install py-cord2.0.0==rc1

[dapper quiver]

ty :D

[gilded widget]

fix isnt in rc1 lmao

[dapper quiver]

okay so i looked back at your message and turns out its only with application commands

so i can use it in on_message

[gilded widget]

yeah, interactions/options are where it occurs, fairly certain it functions fine with prefixed-esque stuff

[dapper quiver]

oh thats even better, saves me a lot of trouble, thanks :D

[unborn cliff]

i just gave an install command for a stable version of pycord so

¯_(ツ)_/¯

[gilded widget]

all good

[glad saffron]

Hi guys, how do I have a bot send a message in a specific channel?

I have the ID of that channel but I'm not too sure on how to have it send the message to it

[south ermine]

Yes?

[unborn cliff]

You can see it in the thread thing i made

[little tapir]

await ctx.bot.get_channel(channelid).send()

[little tapir]

b!rtfm pyc get_channel

[open bear]

Best matches for get_channel in pyc

[wooden narwhal]

No error?

though i am not good at sql, everything else looks fine to me.

[broken wren]

nope

[broken wren]

mhm

[wooden narwhal]

maybe query

issues?

[slender lintel]

The on_message is an event not a command so your message content is stored within the ctx argument you've passed in. I would recommend u to change ctx to message cuz it's more readable like that

[slender lintel]

Also pls don't send your whole bots code just send what's not working

[tall stag]

ok thank you 🙏 sorry to ask, but what would i need to specify in
this part or write instead of ctx.content to be able to retrieve message contents?

@client.event
async def on_message(ctx):
    print(f"{ctx.channel}: {ctx.author}: {ctx.author.name} {ctx.author.id}: {ctx.content}")

[slender lintel]

@client.event
async def on_message(message):
    print(f"{message.channel}: {message.author}: {ctx.author.name} {message.author.id}: {message}")

The message content is already stored inside the argument you don't need to access it again

[broken wren]

no, idts

[crimson gale]

accessing the content attribute of Message requires you have the message_content intent enabled and provided to your bot

[stray smelt]

[viral fossil]

Hi guys . As my project ad skipper I want to put multiprocessing in my code using Pipes I want to communicate between processes. I don't really have any idea what I am doing. This is part of my final requirements in school. Our teacher never teach us about, multiprocessing, multithreading, parallel and etc. And he want us to put multiprocessing, multithreading, parallel and etc. in our code. My question is am I doing it right? or I am just messing around in my code? Skip add doesn't print in the system when the ad is skipped. it says that Failed to read descriptor from node connection: A device attached to the system is not functioning. (0x1F)

[inner iris]

Why can't I import CommandPermission from discord.commands? I'm using rc1, is that the problem?

[upbeat hill]

how would you get a bot to read from a json file?

[crimson gale]

permissions v1 is deprecated and support removed from rc1 onward

[inner iris]

so what can I use instead?

[crimson gale]

permissions v2

or checks found in the commands extension

[inner iris]

how can I use them with command groups? Both the checks and the permissions v2.

[warm tundra]

How do I get the value stored in a specific grid in MySQL???

I just started learning abt it so don;t know much

Also, is there a way to get an audio file from audio

[crimson gale]

the checks you use with the respective commands you want to restrict and permissions v2 i have no idea. havent delved into them myself yet

[celest moth]

is it possible to create a file for a command and add it to the main bot file?

[inner iris]

So just with a decorator before the declaration of the group?

[crimson gale]

i guess

[frank moon]

how do i add choices to option when i fetch the data from the database with a specific user?

or no way?

[crimson gale]

do you mean dynamic slash command option choices?

[frank moon]

example?

[crimson gale]

is that what you mean?

[frank moon]

not sure what u mean so i would like u to explain 🙂

[crimson gale]

youre saying something about pulling info off a database and then providing them as choices to the user

[frank moon]

yeah

pycord 2.0 supports slash commands

[formal bluff]

I have pycord 2.0?

[crimson gale]

its installing discord.py

discord-py-slash-command requires discord. Uninstall that and discord.py

installed this again; pip install git+https://github.com/Pycord-Development/pycord
now it worked thx

[little isle]

Simple question this time: How do I remove a view from a message? Setting view=None raises this error:

return await self.followup.send(*args, **kwargs)  # self.send_followup
  File "/opt/homebrew/lib/python3.10/site-packages/discord/webhook/async_.py", line 1561, in send
    if view is not MISSING and not view.is_finished():
AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'is_finished'

The documentation for WebhookMessage says "The updated view to update this message with. If None is passed then the view is removed."

Ditto the documentation for Message.edit()

Actually, I think my problem is different. This occurs when sending a message with view=None

[vale bloom]

python3 -m pip install py-cord
when typing that I only get this:

[inland acorn]

..

[dapper quiver]

In a channel, i want to get the id of the first message only, any ideas on how?

[crimson coral]

eh...

[crimson coral]

the best you can do is use channel.history with an "infinite" (or very large) limit and then get the last/first item, depending on your implementation

i recommend reading https://docs.pycord.dev/en/master/api.html#discord.TextChannel.history for a better idea on doing so

[dapper quiver]

Theres a param which is oldest_first but issue im facing is when i do

 messages = await channel.history(limit=2, oldest_first=True).flatten()
    print(messages)
    print(type(messages))
    msg = bot.get_message(977238207659909126)
    print(msg)```
My last print(msg) is none and print(messages) gives me
```[<Message id=977238207659909126 channel=<TextChannel id=976338556559691876 name='test' position=14 nsfw=False news=False category_id=971116553032585226> type=<MessageType.application_command: 20> author=<Member id=971276352147845190 name='Powered Bot' discriminator='6049' bot=True nick=None guild=<Guild id=971110220568879134 name='Powered Bots' shard_id=0 chunked=True member_count=11>> flags=<MessageFlags value=0>>, <Message id=977238208209362984 channel=<TextChannel id=976338556559691876 name='test' position=14 nsfw=False news=False category_id=971116553032585226> type=<MessageType.default: 0> author=<Member id=971276352147845190 name='Powered Bot' discriminator='6049' bot=True nick=None guild=<Guild id=971110220568879134 name='Powered Bots' shard_id=0 chunked=True member_count=11>> flags=<MessageFlags value=0>>]

[crimson coral]

because get_message reads from a different cache

[dapper quiver]

oh hm, well what should i be doing then>

[crimson coral]

are you sure 977238207659909126 is in that channel?

[dapper quiver]

according to that print, it is

[crimson coral]

wait then

just do messages[0]

it already got the message object for you

[dapper quiver]

oh alrighty lemme try that

well i want to be able to edit that message later too

which is why im going thru all this trouble

[crimson coral]

well yeah you have the object

so you just work on that

note that the more messages in a channel, the more expensive it becomes to use history; it can take a while before returning anything

[dapper quiver]

makes sense

[crimson coral]

oh wait

i just realised your way of doing it works way better than what i initially suggested

limit=1, oldest_first=True will instantly return the first message

[dapper quiver]

oh my lord

i wish i realized

thank you :D

[crimson coral]

all good, if anything your test code above was how i found out lol

just do discord.Attachment

i can't recall any scenario in which you need SlashCommandOptionType at the moment, the regular classes work just fine

why

sorry

Capital A

[upbeat hill]

is there a fix for this?

[frigid lark]

Use interaction.guild?

[upbeat hill]

okie

thanks

[frigid lark]

Im not sure if this works

[upbeat hill]

seems to work

[upbeat hill]

do you know how to add roles to the overwrites?

[fair cradle]

How Do i make a for loop in slash autocomplete?

[frigid lark]

For what?

You can just use a list?

[fair cradle]

but it should display the guilds of a user

[frigid lark]

Oh

[daring flint]

Does anyone have a code example of using image inputs in a slash command? There's not one in the Guide (yet)

(nm, found it in the main repo - https://github.com/Pycord-Development/pycord/blob/master/examples/app_commands/slash_options.py)

[upbeat hill]

how would you make an incrementor for a ticket system?
(format: 0001, 0002 etc.
0017, 1732)

[vocal crane]

is there a way to have more the 25 options in slash commands?

[slender lintel]

i cant edit the ctx.response messages, i keep getting thrown an error like this : 'Interaction' object has no attribute 'edit_message'

i have tried using the normal message.edit and it gave the same error

[crimson coral]

no

[crimson coral]

https://docs.pycord.dev/en/master/api.html#interaction

[midnight orbit]

can .respond() with ephemeral on_message messages?

[crimson coral]

nope

[slender lintel]

so would await edit_original_message(embed=new_embed) work? or is edit_original_message meant to be something else?

[crimson coral]

ctx.respond doesn't return a Message, it returns an Interaction

so with your naming, you do message.edit_original_message... because message in this case is an Interaction

[slender lintel]

and message is my ctx.respond variable name?

[crimson coral]

well that's what im guessing anyway

[slender lintel]

ight ill test it out, thanks

@crimson coral do you know how to make the bot think?

[crimson coral]

uhhh

like typing status?

[slender lintel]

is it await ctx.deffer() or something

yea, it allows the bot longer to send a message

[crimson coral]

yes await ctx.defer() is used when you know the bot will take more than 3 seconds to respond

[slender lintel]

yeaa ight thanks

finally 😂

no more interaction failed

[wraith finch]

so I have a command which calls this and after it makes the dataentry the command doesn't do anything else and just stops after making the dataentry when I use the command once again cause there already is a dataentry it doesn't create one and the command words, anybody know what's happening here?

[slender lintel]

this did work too, cheers

[crimson coral]

nice

[south ermine]

I answered you in your thread #977232172626898986

[slender lintel]

Hey, when i restart the bot then is my button not working, i have tried with on_ready but not working..

    @commands.Cog.listener()
    async def on_ready(self):
        view = discord.ui.View(timeout=None)
        view.add_item(teststation_button())

I can't view the slash command

using the latest beta version^^

[slender lintel]

bot remove from the server and new add the bot to your server

[slender lintel]

reinvite the bot?

yes

[supple ravine]

Here's the persistent example.

[crimson coral]

@slender lintel refer to this, you're mainly missing the self.bot.add_view but it's a good read anyway

[slender lintel]

so only self.bot.add_view more not?

[slender lintel]

or + this?

[crimson coral]

self.bot.add_view(view) along with your previous code

but again, you should have a general look at the example

[slender lintel]

Ignoring exception in on_ready

[crimson coral]

client?

[slender lintel]

no bot

[crimson coral]

where did you define the on_ready

[slender lintel]

in my cog

[crimson coral]

and your cog doesn't have a bot attribute...?

[slender lintel]

not working 🤔

no slash commands now

[slender lintel]

huh? indeed

[crimson coral]

can you show your cog's __init__

[slender lintel]

now this command is back

[slender lintel]

not __init__ i have only class teststation(commands.Cog):

[crimson coral]

.

sigh

[slender lintel]

need init?

[crimson coral]

read https://guide.pycord.dev/extensions/commands/cogs for how to properly implement cogs

[slender lintel]

🤔

any way around to get the slash command

[crimson coral]

does it show in the server's Integrations tab?

[slender lintel]

so this is correct?

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

[crimson coral]

def __init__(self, bot):

[slender lintel]

no, only ping

[crimson coral]

can you show the code for the slash command

[slender lintel]

dont working my button is by restart not working

@slash_command(name="play", description="Plays a music!", guild_ids=guild_ids)
async def play(self, ctx, *, query):
    player = self.bot.lavalink.player_manager.get(ctx.guild.id)

    query = query.strip('<>')


    if not url_rx.match(query):
        query = f'ytmsearch:{query}'

        results = await player.node.get_tracks(query)

the starting

using cog btw ^^^

[crimson coral]

when are you loading the cog

[crimson coral]

can you show the updated code

(also please consider making a help thread via #969574202413838426)

[slender lintel]

last

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

[slender lintel]

Oh i haved thanks

[crimson coral]

i mean, when are you calling load_extension

ohok

[slender lintel]

in the main file?

[crimson coral]

yes

[slender lintel]

before using client.run

[crimson coral]

not in on_ready or anything right?

[slender lintel]

yeah

[crimson coral]

hm

[crimson coral]

did you override on_connect?

[slender lintel]

channel.id does get the channels id right?

[crimson coral]

yeah
