Slash command within cog raising TypeError: slash_command() takes 0 positional arguments but 1 was given despite self being included as a parameter. My code lines up with given examples, and I can't seem to find the issue.

#

heres my code

#

    @commands.slash_command()
    async def conclude(self, ctx):
        if await self.check(ctx) == 1:
            return
        else:
            channel = self.check(ctx)

        if str(channel.id) not in self.bot.rooms:
            return await ctx.reply("You must be in a debate channel to use this command.")
        
        if "participants" not in self.bot.rooms[str(channel.id)] or "debaters" not in self.bot.rooms[str(channel.id)]:
            return await ctx.send("The room must have an ongoing debate for you to vote.")   

        if "concluded" not in self.bot.rooms[str(channel.id)]:
            self.bot.rooms[str(channel.id)]["concluded"] = []

        if ctx.author.id in self.bot.rooms[str(channel.id)]["concluded"]:
            return await ctx.reply("You have already voted to conclude.")

        self.bot.rooms[str(channel.id)]["concluded"].append(ctx.author.id)

        if len(self.bot.rooms[str(channel.id)]["concluded"]) > (len(self.bot.rooms[str(channel.id)]["vc"].members)/2):
            stance = None
            if "for" not in self.bot.rooms[str(channel.id)] and "against" not in self.bot.rooms[str(channel.id)]:
                stance = random.choice("for", "against")
            if "for" not in self.bot.rooms[str(channel.id)]:
                self.bot.rooms[str(channel.id)]["for"] = 0
            if "against" not in self.bot.rooms[str(channel.id)]:
                self.bot.rooms[str(channel.id)]["against"] = 0

            stance = self.bot.rooms[str(channel.id)]["for"] if len(self.bot.rooms[str(channel.id)]["for"]) >= self.bot.rooms[str(channel.id)]["against"] else self.bot.rooms[str(channel.id)]["against"]
            return self._end_debate(ctx, channel, stance)
        
        return await ctx.reply("You have voted to conclude.")

#

thats weird

#

commands is still defined as from discord.ext import commands and isn't changed at any point correct?

ebon abyss Jun 17, 2022, 2:12 AM

#

mhm

vagrant patio Jun 17, 2022, 2:13 AM

#

my only real guess is that you've got some sort of namespace conflict

#

i.e. discord.py isn't fully uninstalled or something went wrong in installation of the lib?

ebon abyss Jun 17, 2022, 2:13 AM

#

maybe

vagrant patio Jun 17, 2022, 2:13 AM

#

i'd uninstall all discord related libraries, including py-cord, and then reinstall py-cord==2.0.0rc1

ebon abyss Jun 17, 2022, 2:13 AM

#

i did install it from git with pip but i was just using from what i remember from discordpy

#

did the process ever change?

vagrant patio Jun 17, 2022, 2:14 AM

#

installing from git still works

#

just gives you the latest library commits

ebon abyss Jun 17, 2022, 2:14 AM

#

yeah thats the only command it does it on too

vagrant patio Jun 17, 2022, 2:15 AM

#

no indentation errors right? you are still in the cog indentation?

ebon abyss Jun 17, 2022, 2:16 AM

#

mhm

#

im reinstalling pycord right now

#

i didn't have dpy on this system to begin with

#

yeah same error even after reinstalling

vagrant patio Jun 17, 2022, 2:18 AM

#

damn that is weird

ebon abyss Jun 17, 2022, 2:19 AM

#

i looked at comits just now but the only recent changes to ext havent't been anything that should effect this

#

ill try to install latest release instead and see what happens

#

that fixed it

#

must be an issue with recent changes

#

at least those within the last month

#

nevermind im an idiot

ebon abyss Jun 17, 2022, 3:38 AM

#

i fixed it somehow

#

dont know how

#

i just moved to linux and it works
