[lost lodge]

hey i made a file for all views (i know from guide xD):

class View(discord.ui.View): # Create a class called View that subclasses discord.ui.View
    @discord.ui.button(label="Click me!", style=discord.ButtonStyle.primary, emoji="😎") # Create a button with the label "😎 Click me!" with color Blurple
    async def button_callback(self, button, interaction):
        await interaction.response.send_message("You clicked the button!") # Send a message when the button is clicked```

how can i import it to a other file

so that i can use it in a other cog

[smoky forge]

https://stackoverflow.com/a/70780850/19327005 check if this works

[cyan quail]

No

[smoky forge]

add it to a separate file and import that

[lost lodge]

ah

[smoky forge]

so like a views.py file and then from views import View

[cyan quail]

Can you show your code? Worked fine for me just now (deferred, slept for 5 minutes and used ctx.send)

[lost lodge]

so i made a import and now i try to sind the imported button:

    @commands.command()
    async def hello(self, ctx):
        await ctx.send("hdj", view=View)```

[lost lodge]

but it doesn't works

[cyan quail]

(As an addon, I presume it's because discord doesn't want user privacy settings to be arbitrarily exposed on the api to prevent abuse, e.g a malicious bot checking who it can DM before sending mass messages so the ratelimit is lighter)

[smoky forge]

elaborate? saying "it doesn't work" doesn't make it easier for us to solve your problem

[lost lodge]

Command raised an exception: TypeError: View.to_components() missing 1 required positional argument: 'self'```

[smoky forge]

To initialize the object you have to type it LikeThis()

so you forgot the parenthesis is all

[harsh dust]

i've literally tried everything, i've managed to pass down the group object to every cog and it refuses to register commands if the group is being used in more than 1 cog so i'm assuming this is some sort of py-cord limitation

[lost lodge]

thank you so much

[proud pagoda]

Thanks, that worked

Hello, I have a question, how can I make a bot copy the embeds?

I tried many things but none works for me, it detects the embeds as empty arrays

and when using "message.embeds[0]" it returns me that the index is out of range

[sterile canopy]

how do i close a modal after e.g. a specific input was successful?

[full basin]

Close?

[sterile canopy]

yes so the input is successful but still comes a something went wrong message in the modal

this is what i mean, however nothing went wrong and the user has to close the modal by himself now

[young bone]

Can you send some code?

[sterile canopy]

this is the code of the whole modal```class EnterVerificationCode(discord.ui.Modal):
def init(self, *args, **kwargs) -> None:
super().init(*args, **kwargs)

    self.add_item(discord.ui.InputText(label="Enter your Verification Code the Bot send you", style=discord.InputTextStyle.singleline))

async def callback(self, interaction: discord.Interaction):
    if(checkVerificationCode(self.children[0].value , interaction.user.id)):
        await interaction.user.add_roles(bot.get_guild(guildID).get_role(memberRoleID))
        await interaction.user.send('Your verification was successful')
        await userJoined(interaction.user)
        
        ```

[smoky forge]

do you have the message content intent enabled? i think that extends to embeds as well

[peak chasm]

if they had told me that it could be that and I added it but still nothing "intents = discord.Intents.all()"

[smoky forge]

is it enabled in the dev portal

[full basin]

You have to respond

[sterile canopy]

so there is no way around this? too bad, anyway thanks

[prisma flicker]

you can edit the message, that counts as responding

[sterile canopy]

good ideam ill use that

[peak chasm]

yes

[smoky forge]

to copy an embed it should simply be like embeds = message.embeds

but if the message has no embeds then it's gonna be None

no idea what the message you're trying to get looks like

[peak chasm]

I sent a message with a bot but it still detects that it has no content

I am trying to extract the title and description from that embed

[slim drum]

is there a way to make hybrid command groups in cogs?

[prisma flicker]

do you mean bridge commands?

you can use channel.last_message

[fervent cradle]

Hi, so Im trying to catch exceptions raised by an external module but for some reason using except module.ExceptionName: doesnt work (as in I have an error that says the module has no attribute ExceptionName and raises a second exception)

[lusty token]

i had to reflash my raspi and I think i'm missing some packages but I'm unsure as to what i need

[prisma flicker]

you may need to import the exception name from the module

[prisma flicker]

you're not passing in a bot token

[lusty token]

Oh I forgot about the .env file not being passed through github lol

[fervent cradle]

with something like import module.ExceptionName?

[prisma flicker]

maybe

[fervent cradle]

Welp that doesnt work, couldnt find much info so Ill just use a generic Except for the time being

[prisma flicker]

if you shared the specific code and stack trace I might be able to help you further

[fervent cradle]

Which part of it?

its... kind of messy atm

[frank yew]

How can I delete a response ephemeral with delay?

[near hollow]

You can’t delete ephemeral messages. Only the user who received it can

[frank yew]

Ohh.. Ok

[rare ice]

This is simple python. self.color is a global variable in your cog so you will want to use a database like sql or mongodb to do per-server-configurations.

[peak wing]

would making a json file to replace a database work?

[rare ice]

?tag json

[obtuse junco]

Why JSON is unsuitable as a data storage medium.

1. JSON, quite simply, is not a database. It's not designed to be a data storage format, rather a way of transmitting data over a network. It's also often used as a way of doing configuration files for programs.

2. There is no redundancy built in to JSON. JSON is just a format, and Python has libraries for it like json and ujson that let you load and dump it, sometimes to files, but that's all it does, write data to a file. There is no sort of DBMS (Database Management System), which means no sort of sophistication in how the data is stored, or built in ways to keep it safe and backed up, there's no built in encryption either - bear in mind in larger applications encryption may be necessary for GDPR/relevant data protection regulations compliance.

3. JSON, unlike relational databases, has no way to store relational data, which is a very commonly needed way of storing data. Relational data, as the name may suggest, is data that relates to other data. For example if you have a table of users and a table of servers, the server table will probably have an owner field, where you'd reference a user from the users table. [This is only relevant for relational data]

4. JSON is primarily a KV (key-value) format, for example {"a":"b"} where a is the key and b is the value, but what if you want to search not by that key but by a sub-key? Well, instead of being able to quickly use var[key], which in a Python dictionary has a constant return time (for more info look up hash tables), you now have to iterate through every object in the dictionary and compare to find what you're looking for. Most relational database systems, like MySQL, MariaDB, and PostgreSQL have ways of indexing secondary fields apart from the primary key so that you can easily search by multiple attributes.

[peak wing]

so i cant?

[full basin]

Json files are not databases.

Use a proper database like Mongo or MySQL

[rare ice]

It’s not recommended with json, no. I recommend using mongodb since it’s really easy to use and setup.

?tag mongodb

[obtuse junco]

MongoDB is a NoSQL database that stores data as documents in BSON format. Not recommended in general 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.

Nevertheless, if you still want to use mongodb within your asynchronous code, use motor for the async driver, even it sucks because motor is just a run_in_executor wrapped version of pymongo. Keep in mind that odds of you getting mongo support here are low.

• Official website: https://www.mongodb.com/
• Async driver: https://motor.readthedocs.io/en/stable/tutorial-asyncio.html

In conclusion, NoSQL databases are fine but not MongoDB. Consider using SQL database for your bot, e.g. PostgreSQL, it's broadly the best relational database you can get.

[peak wing]

i need to do this quick, i can make a db later but for now can i do json files?

[rare ice]

Yes but you probably won’t get support here for it.

[peak wing]

isn't it just: { self.color = {} }

[rare ice]

I don’t use json as a database nor I do I recommend it so you may have to just search it up on Google or something.

[prisma flicker]

@peak wing just do a dict of guild id to color

colors={}
colors[ctx.guild.id] = "blue"```

or whatever

true

[round rivet]

file extensions can be changed, what really matters is the data in the file

[prisma flicker]

mime type

[round rivet]

theoretically a webserver could be bad and intentionally set an incorrect mime type

¯_(ツ)_/¯

[slim drum]

yeah i meant that

[abstract frigate]

No module named discord.app

[outer obsidian]

discord.app is gone for several months is renamed to discord.commands

ya is pretty long time since it is renamed

[abstract frigate]

Oh

Ty

[outer obsidian]

np

[abstract frigate]

Also why is message.content empty?

[abstract frigate]

Found it. It was because of intents

How do i check if a channel exists

[outer obsidian]

b!rtfm pyc Bot.get_channel

[dire spade]

Best matches for Bot.get_channel in pyc

discord.Bot.get_channel
discord.ext.commands.Bot.get_channel
discord.Bot.get_all_channels
discord.ext.commands.Bot.get_all_channels

[outer obsidian]

@abstract frigate. or you could also look through Guild.get_channel

        min_values=1,  # the minimum number of values that must be selected by the users
        max_values=24,  # the maxmimum number of values that can be selected by the users
        options=[  # the list of options from which users can choose, a required field
            discord.SelectOption(

[young bone]

is it really?

does it work with pycord?

[simple canopy]

no its not, but it should be out soon

Saw it in the docs and had hope

[frank yew]

Can I make a select menu with de Roles of server?

I cant make it...🤯

[woeful spindle]

Fixed.

[young bone]

you also can do it with the channels

[frank yew]

Nop, You can make it: https://discord.com/channels/881207955029110855/1005966834236932187 but the problem is that u can put only 1-25 options, if u have more, u are fucked xd

[young bone]

yes

[frank yew]

do you have any suggestion? I would like to create a ticket where people could request a role

[frank yew]

Where?

[prisma flicker]

add_field

wouldnt that be just simply an embed description with "\n".join(,,,)

[simple plover]

can you edit a normal message to an embed?

[verbal gulch]

doesn't work

[frank yew]

Yes but they are not equally separated

you need to give it a role, not an id

Okay, thanks you so much

[simple plover]

i am trying to edit this embed 'Loading profile..' to the embed below it, but its just responding the new embed instead of editing the first one, i am using await ctx.edit(embed=embed)

[dusty linden]

Just a suggestion:
Use await ctx.defer() instead of your "loading" embed.
Then use await ctx.respond() for the profile.

It's made for it.

[simple plover]

tysm that helped me a lot

[prisma flicker]

you need to use edit_original_message

response = await ctx.respond(embed=embed)
# do the work
await response.edit_original_message(embed=embed)```

[prisma flicker]

member is None

why are you calling get_user when you already have a discord.Member object?

[verbal gulch]

Because the command asks for a id

[prisma flicker]

just change user_id to member

it will take in an id or a member and convert it to a member

[verbal gulch]

it should get a id and convert it to a member

[prisma flicker]

it does

just rename user_id to member and delete your member = line

discord.utils.get(ctx.guild.roles, id=roleid)

[verbal gulch]

ahh, thanks

[young bone]

you can also do it with name="" but if someone changes the name it doesn´t work so stay with the id

[verbal gulch]

Okie, i appreciate your help :)

[prisma flicker]

You can also just do guild.get_role(id)

How to ge the ban reason of a user using audit log?

[cyan quail]

does it specifically need to be from audit log? You'd need to iterate through guild.audit_logs and compare the attributes

an easier method would be using fetch_ban to check a specific user https://docs.pycord.dev/en/master/api.html#discord.Guild.fetch_ban

[wooden lodge]

Yes, the server i am working for wont give me access for to view the ban tab.... so i need the audit log instead

[ashen pulsar]

Hey can anyone help me with this? im trying to change the view of a message after a button press but it doesnt change the view

await interaction.response.edit_message(content="Upgrades", view=view)```

[cyan quail]

eh i'd say that's more of a problem with their admins rather than something you need to develop around...
there are some examples at https://docs.pycord.dev/en/master/api.html#discord.Guild.audit_logs
filter by action=discord.AuditLogAction.ban; entry.user is the user that executed the ban, while entry.target is the user that got banned

do note that audit logs aren't infinite so you won't find older bans

[cyan quail]

well what is view

[ashen pulsar]

its just a variable that has a View

with buttons in it

[cyan quail]

can you show the full code

[wooden lodge]

I am currently using:

audit_logs = await guild.audit_logs(limit=1, action=discord.AuditLogAction.ban).flatten()

But the only information i get by doing that is the following:
[<AuditLogEntry id=1007347748250599514 action=AuditLogAction.ban user=<Member id=424657032252096525 name='Klaro' discriminator='2506' bot=False nick=None guild=<Guild id=837590922610737162 name='Rainbow Six [DE] | BOT Test' shard_id=0 chunked=True member_count=17>>>]
As you can see, i am not getting the rason

[cyan quail]

does audit_logs[0].reason not return anything

[harsh dust]

how do i call another application command within another?

help_cmd = ctx.bot.get_application_command('help')
help_cmd

not sure what else to do from here

[ashen pulsar]

async def button_callback(interaction):    
  view = View(Button(label="a", style=discord.ButtonStyle.grey),          Button(label="b", style=discord.ButtonStyle.green))
  await interaction.response.edit_message(content="Upgrades", view=view)

        ```

[cyan quail]

use ctx.invoke https://docs.pycord.dev/en/master/api.html#discord.ApplicationContext.invoke
do note it will attempt to use the existing interaction object; this may screw up command logic

[wooden lodge]

<AuditLogEntry id=1007348590898839593 action=AuditLogAction.ban user=<Member id=424657032252096525 name='Klaro' discriminator='2506' bot=False nick=None guild=<Guild id=837590922610737162 name='Rainbow Six [DE] | BOT Test' shard_id=0 chunked=True member_count=17>>>

.reason (did not saw that) i am getting an error for that

[cyan quail]

idk discord makes audit logs kind of a pain to work with, if it isn't working then

[wooden lodge]

ok thank you anyways :)

[cyan quail]

exactly what error

[ashen pulsar]

How do i use it?

[cyan quail]

well it kinda tells you

[simple canopy]

[dry echo]

can i get the original message in on_command_error() ?

[cyan quail]

ctx.message

[copper dew]

U could use something like Motor, or better yet, an ODM like Beanie. Just read the docs for them

[dry echo]

oh that easy lol

[cyan quail]

yep

ctx/context has a lot of info

[solid agate]

Anyone here managed to add tags to a forum thread, through code yet?

[cyan quail]

i might be mistaken, but i don't think the endpoint is available yet

since thread tags are also on the server side, we'd need guild tag objects available on the api too which i don't think exist yet

[solid agate]

Yeah, I figured, couldn't find anything on the discord developer documentation either.

But thought it wouldnt hurt to ask.

[cyan quail]

dicts use .pop, remove is for lists

[finite flame]

can I somehow get a list of all timeouts currently going on on a guild?

[cyan quail]

iterate through guild.members and check if member.communication_disabled_until has a value

https://docs.pycord.dev/en/master/api.html#discord.Member.communication_disabled_until

(or if member.timed_out is True, either works)

[finite flame]

aight

timeouts aren't an own event right? they are a part of member_update?

[cyan quail]

yes

if it's within the same bot just import the cog and call it like a normal function

did you set timeout=None in ticketmsg_view.__init__?

[lost lodge]

i don't have a init

ah

[lost lodge]

you mean the button definition

there isn't any timeout

[harsh dust]

using invoke worked fine

[prisma flicker]

you need one

[lost lodge]

is that a init:
you mean the button definition

[prisma flicker]

no

[lost lodge]

how can i make a init

[prisma flicker]

it would go in the ticketmsg_view class

same way you make any other method... def __init__(self):

like that?

@prisma flicker help pls

not possible

you'd have to make it a string and parse it yourself

anyone help?

alright

ty

[proven mantle]

Somehow my Interaction times out when i need to wait for something. Is this my fault or cant discord wait for something?

That is my code:

generations = await dalle.generate(self.children[0].value) # Can take a while
index = random.randint(0, len(generations) - 1)
image = generations[index]
url = image["generation"]["image_path"]
r = requests.get(url)
with open("image.png", "wb") as f:
    f.write(r.content)
embed.set_image(url="attachment://image.png")
await interaction.response.send_message(embed=embed, file=discord.File("image.png"))

[dry echo]

any pycord lavalink documentation out there?

[tulip bobcat]

you can add

await interaction.response.defer()
```in the beginning

[proven mantle]

yee. i fixed it now and it works fine

reread your code and ask yourself what it's doing

Is there a limit on the size of the integer that can be an option for a slash command? I'm trying to enter a guild ID as a slash command int parameter and it's saying it isn't an integer unless I remove two numbers off of the guild ID

[rare ice]

Yes there is. A better way to do it is take the option as str then covert it to an integer.

[sage galleon]

That's what I ended up doing

[patent halo]

that works well enough, thanks for the help.

How can i create a button_callback from a specific button? Specifically of the two buttons defined to do different things

[smoky forge]

use a button decorator

if you need to pass arguments to the buttons, subclass the buttons

[young bone]

with ```py
buttonname.callback = button_callback

[frank yew]

button_callback which parameters? Self, button and interaction?

[young bone]

I do it with this without a class

@client.command()
async def test(ctx):

    button = discord.ui.Button(label="text")

    async def button_callback(interaction: discord.Interaction):

i mean basically but i want them with bridge commands

I think it's not possible with bridge commands yet

[slim drum]

Extension 'cogs.fun' raised an error: AttributeError: 'SlashCommandGroup' object has no attribute 'bridge_command' hm yeah sadly

your best bet is to make the command a function and then call it in both commands

it's ineffective but its what wotks

When using commands.cooldown, when I’m entering the BucketType, do I use server or guild?

[peak wing]

@commands.is_owner()
async def d(ctx):
  count = 0
  for roles in ctx.guild.roles:
    count = count + 1
    rl = roles.created_at.timestamp()
    embed = discord.Embed(description = f'**{count}**. - {roles.mention} created (<t:{int(rl)}:R>)', color=0x303135)
    await ctx.send(embed=embed)``` this sends each role with different embeds but how can i make it send the roles in 1 embed together?

[coral kindle]

Why i cant do my bot on replit

bruuh

[full basin]

Because that's not a proper host method.

[woeful spindle]

I forgot how to make custom command errors? Do I use this:

@ban.error
async def on_command_error(self, ctx, error):
   if instance(error, commands.CommandOnCooldown):
        await ctx.send("my error message")

[peak wing]

maybe we just wanna code on it 🤷🏽‍♂️

[cyan quail]

Yes, bear in mind this is for prefix commands; slash commands use on_application_command_error

[cyan quail]

You're creating an embed for every role... just make a single embed and then add to that in the loop instead

[coral kindle]

Yo

I have buttona and it work 3 minutets

and tthen when i click it

it says that application don respond

how can i fix this

class View(discord.ui.View):
    @discord.ui.button(label=':white_check_mark:', style=discord.ButtonStyle.green)
    async def button_callback(self, button, interaction):
        role = bot.get_guild(interaction.guild_id).get_role(1007405357880062012)
        await interaction.user.add_roles(role)
        await interaction.response.send_message(content=f'<@{str(interaction.user.id)}>', embed=discord.Embed(title='Gratulacje!', description='Zweryfikowałeś się!', color=0x55FF55).set_footer(text=strftime('%d/%m/%Y')), delete_after=2.5)```

[lime lichen]

my bot is only responding to mentions and dms, no errors. was working perfectly before. anybody know whats up?

[peak wing]

um how?

[full basin]

Because views default timeout is 3 minutes.

[coral kindle]

how can i change itt

[full basin]

https://docs.pycord.dev/en/master/api.html?highlight=view#discord.ui.View

When building the view instance

timeout keyword.

[coral kindle]

class View(discord.ui.View):

What should i change here

[full basin]

When building it

[errant crane]

Here's the confirm example.

[woeful spindle]

How do I make this override my command error in another cog?

[full basin]

@coral kindle See https://github.com/Pycord-Development/pycord/blob/master/examples/views/confirm.py#L19-L21

[errant crane]

examples/views/confirm.py lines 19 to 21

class Confirm(discord.ui.View):
    def __init__(self):
        super().__init__()```

[full basin]

on super().__init__() you'd provide timeout=

[woeful spindle]

I have an entire cog for error handling but I want this error to override my events.py command error handling thing.

[rough fulcrum]

Who knows why Discord UI (Buttons) message interaction doesn't work after a certain time? This is somewhat similar to the expired time, but the bot process did not stop

[cyan quail]

Command errors are additional; any other error handlers will still run... if you override the main error handler
It turns out that the default error handler actually is ignored if your commands have custom handlers

https://github.com/Pycord-Development/pycord/blob/master/discord/ext/commands/bot.py#L154

[errant crane]

discord/ext/commands/bot.py line 154

async def on_command_error(self, context: Context, exception: errors.CommandError) -> None:```

[bronze vector]

add timeout=None to your discord.ui.View class

[rough fulcrum]

Thx

[cyan quail]

i.e these lines ```py
command = context.command
if command and command.has_error_handler():
return

    cog = context.cog
    if cog and cog.has_error_handler():
        return```

Also note that if you do make a custom handler, it may be good practice to call the original handler at the end in case there's default behaviour that the custom handler doesn't catch

[woeful spindle]

This is my command error handler - https://paste.pythondiscord.com/eniyepuhah. How would I go about implementing both of these into my code?

[cyan quail]

is this meant to be your bot's global error handler, or just the cog's error handler?

[fervent cradle]

i have a question about timestamp
normally, in normal command we use this "timestamp= ctx.message.created_at"
but in slash_command wrong
anyway to fix it as well ?

i think the problem is ctx.message.created_at

[cyan quail]

you can try ctx.interaction.message.created_at

if interaction.message doesn't exist, you should use discord.utils.snowflake_time to convert interaction.id to a valid timestamp https://docs.pycord.dev/en/master/api.html#discord.utils.snowflake_time

[cyan quail]

the default view timeout is 3 minutes

you can set timeout=None to extend that indefinitely

[fervent cradle]

wep

[cyan quail]

@fervent cradle try this instead then

maybe we could add interaction.created_at

[fervent cradle]

hummm

[cyan quail]

but i guess you generally don't need it since interactions are so short lived

[rough fulcrum]

i fixed few minutes ago, yes thx

[cyan quail]

allgood

[fervent cradle]

all not working, idk why

[cyan quail]

not that

that doesn't exist

the discord.utils solution i tagged you with should work fine

[fervent cradle]

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

field timestamp

[cyan quail]

yes

what about it

[fervent cradle]

i didnt get it...

[cyan quail]

you have to define embed.timestamp yourself

using a datetime.datetime object

which you can get from discord.utils.snowflake_time

[fervent cradle]

time = datetime.datetime.utcnow()

maybe this gonna work

[cyan quail]

that works too

[fervent cradle]

a loop

[cyan quail]

just datetime.utcnow() then

[fervent cradle]

thanks

working very ell

well* and smoothy

[tiny wagon]

^^

[cyan quail]

this isn't how you use it; invoke_application_command takes ApplicationContext, not a command
you're likely looking for ctx.invoke https://docs.pycord.dev/en/master/api.html#discord.ApplicationContext.invoke

[woeful spindle]

The link that I sent is my global error handler. Would you like me to send my command error handler?

[cyan quail]

if it's the global handler, then all you need is #998272089343668364 message at the top of the error handler

then it will be ignored if your command has a custom handler

though honestly, instead of being a listener you should just override on_command_error in your main bot file

[woeful spindle]

What do you mean?

[cyan quail]

you've made a separate cog.listener to act as your global error handler, however it would probably make more sense to simply override the on_command_error method in commands.Bot (which is easier if you've subclassed, but can work without)

though this isn't too important, your current method still works

[woeful spindle]

I’m definitely willing to give this a try.

[fervent cradle]

hey, just a general questions: What is increasing the RAM usage of my bot "permanently"? Am I wrong in assuming that only global variables and objects can increase the RAM "permanently"?

[woeful spindle]

Did you mean like this? - https://paste.pythondiscord.com/sahoxobuqu.

[obtuse vale]

how do i register a slash command with a name with spaces in it?

[cyan quail]

you got the gist of it, but that if-else logic for checking error handlers should be outside/above MissingArgument, not inside

[cyan quail]

use SlashCommandGroups

[cyan quail]

i guess it could be a variety of reasons; for example, maybe your bot has a really large cache because it's exposed to so many servers and users. It could also be something the user's done; maybe they used a method that doesn't close things properly and leaves unused objects lying around indefinitely... however python's garbage collector makes this somewhat hard to achieve unless you're terribly negligent or doing it on purpose

(and yeah it's typically advised to not over-rely on global variables)

[woeful spindle]

oops didn’t realise that, sorry

[fervent cradle]

If I send a message with a view and that view times out or the message gets deleted, the garbage collector will also delete that object (and its varibales) then right?

[cyan quail]

it will disappear yes

[woeful spindle]

I get this error:

    command = context.command 
NameError: name 'context' is not defined.

[cyan quail]

ctx.command

[woeful spindle]

[cyan quail]

same for cog i suppose

[woeful spindle]

alright will do

[rain knot]

is there a way to put text on a gif using the pillow module? any attempt i have tried just resulted in an error so i'm wondering if it is even possible.

[cyan quail]

what error

[cyan quail]

perhaps https://github.com/python-pillow/Pillow/issues/3128 may be of use

[rain knot]

ill check it out, thanks

[fervent cradle]

hhmmm ok, thanks tho

[woeful spindle]

[rain knot]

I get an error, ValueError: cannot allocate more than 256 colors, should i just compress the gif?

[cyan quail]

i guess

[cyan quail]

I don't know too much about pillow, but it should be pretty trivial to clear the frame before drawing on it again?

[smoky forge]

with interaction_check

[peak wing]

how would i do this?

[prisma flicker]

Pass ctx.author in the view, and in interaction_check return interaction.user == self.author

[smoky forge]

if admin_role in interaction.user.roles:
    #do something
    return True

[prisma flicker]

Another option is to move the logic from the callback into nuke and use wait_for

Or just make it ephemeral

[peak wing]

isn’t this only for / commands?

[smoky forge]

ephemeral is only for interactions so yes

[prisma flicker]

Oh yeah

[stark walrus]

use try except to diagnose

try:
    #put all stuff here 
except Exception as e:
    print(e)```

[prisma flicker]

do other commands work? do you have message content intent?

[slim drum]

i found the error:
NoneType' object has no attribute 'author'

referring to this:

author_name=ctx.message.author.name

[stark walrus]

try ctx.author

[prisma flicker]

if it's an interaction there's not going to be a ctx.message

[woeful spindle]

this is quite confusing

[slim drum]

mhm thanks ill try that !!

[slim drum]

hm that didnt work

doesnt even show an error on console this time

[stark walrus]

I've not worked much with interactions but are you sure ctx takes place here or does it have to be interaction or something

[prisma flicker]

it's a BridgeContext

[stark walrus]

so ctx is correct?

[prisma flicker]

yeah

[stark walrus]

also any idea #1007723579003109477

[prisma flicker]

well you can call it whatever you want

no I skimmed that, no idea, sorry

I just use classes 🤷

[stark walrus]

Oh

[fervent cradle]

im making a link button is there a way to get the server id from the view

class

[prisma flicker]

interaction.guild.id?

[fervent cradle]

that doesn't work

[prisma flicker]

can you send what you have

[fervent cradle]

class View(discord.ui.View):
    @discord.ui.button(label="Click Here To Verify!", style=discord.ButtonStyle.link, url=f"http://127.0.0.1:5000/verify/{interaction.guild.id}")

[smoky forge]

url buttons dont have callbacks

and you cant have it as a decorator cuz its not decorating anything

[prisma flicker]

was about to say that

[fervent cradle]

so how do I have it lead to a site

[prisma flicker]

class MyView(discord.ui.View): # please don't name your view class View
  def __init__(self, guild):
    button = discord.ui.Button(label="Click Here To Verify!", style=discord.ButtonStyle.link, url=f"http://127.0.0.1:5000/verify/{guild.id}")
    self.add_item(button)

[fervent cradle]

ill try this

[fervent cradle]

it almost works then says this discord.ext.commands.errors.CommandInvokeError: Command raised an exception: TypeError: button() got an unexpected keyword argument 'url'

[cyan quail]

discord.Button, casing is different

[coral kindle]

How can i make variables

so when someone use slash command

/add 1

it add's 1 to player's balance

or something

int/str

[fervent cradle]

discord.ext.commands.errors.CommandInvokeError: Command raised an exception: AttributeError: 'VerificationButton' object has no attribute 'children'

[cyan quail]

what was the code

or perhaps did you subclass it? you likely forgot to super().__init__()

[fervent cradle]

class VerificationButton(discord.ui.View):
  def __init__(self, guild):
    Vbutton = discord.ui.Button(label="Click Here To Verify!", style=discord.ButtonStyle.link, url=f"http://127.0.0.1:5000/verify/{guild}")
    self.add_item(Vbutton)

[cyan quail]

yeah, inside __init__ and right above Vbutton you should super().__init__()

[fervent cradle]

Oh okay

thanks

[cyan quail]

you seem to be misunderstanding how slash commands work; you should check your confession variable instead of ctx.message

[peak wing]

i tried that

wanna see the error?

[cyan quail]

go on

[peak wing]

[peak wing]

how do i make a interaction check for drop down menu’s so only the command author can use the drop down menu?

[woeful spindle]

How do I make {error.retry_after} into milliseconds?

[cyan quail]

override the view's interaction_check https://docs.pycord.dev/en/master/api.html#discord.ui.View.interaction_check
though if you have a single callback, you may find it more convenient to check interaction.user.id at the very start of it

[cyan quail]

retry_after can be a float

[peak wing]

    select.disabled=True``` i have this callback

[cyan quail]

...your callback has to respond at the very minimum

but yeah you can just check inside that

[peak wing]

its way more lol

[peak wing]

where at?

[cyan quail]

before you do anything else

[peak wing]

    select.disabled=True
    interaction_check = 

    if select.values[0] == "1":..```

what does '=' equal to

[cyan quail]

nono

define a variable...

but i meant literally just check if interaction.user.id != ...

do something

[peak wing]

    select.disabled=True
     if interaction.user.id is not  ```

what do i use for is not

[cyan quail]

i literally just

[prisma flicker]

You should use != not is not

[wild sequoia]

oke im sorry 🤡

[prisma flicker]

Why don't you just make it ephemeral

[peak wing]

just..?

[peak wing]

i will when i learn the interaction check first

[prisma flicker]

If it's ephemeral you don't need to check it

Since only the person who sent the command can see it

[peak wing]

oh

no

thats ugly asf

[prisma flicker]

ugly?

[peak wing]

yes

[prisma flicker]

I don't understand

[peak wing]

it looks terrible

[peak wing]

    select.disabled=True
    if interaction.user.id !=``` what do i put next

[peak wing]

just..?

[prisma flicker]

a message just one person can see looks worse than a message everyone can see but only one person can use?

like it would literally be the same message

[prisma flicker]

when you create the view pass in ctx.author and then check if interaction.user.id != self.author or whatever you name it

[peak wing]

would self.author mean the message author?

would self.message.author work?

[prisma flicker]

no, the message was sent by the bot

so the author would be the bot

[prisma flicker]

depends on what self.message is

[peak wing]

i want it to be the command author

so whoever did ;help

[prisma flicker]

when you create the view pass in ctx.author and then check if interaction.user.id != self.author or whatever you name it

[peak wing]

how?

[smoky forge]

what if there's an open connection and i have to constantly restart to reload the code

[prisma flicker]

then you should probably close the connection when the bot shuts down

don't depend on the OS or whatever to close your connections

[smoky forge]

right now how my database is handled it's with a context manager in the main file

i was looking into implementing it in a different way

also cuz this way i can't put the database in the same loop as the bot

[wild sequoia]

;c

[prisma flicker]

you want to tell us a little bit about your code and what you tried and what output you get?

[wild sequoia]

i got nothing in the console

and yea idk why it not wokring

[wild sequoia]

.

[smoky forge]

1. the view cant't be initialized in the callback

2. the on_message, if it's in a cog, must have self as first argument

3. the button callback has to be declared outside of the callback

4. not sure if it's discord having a bad codeblock thing but everything past the second print statement shouldn't be in the callback function

5. the callback takes an interaction argument

6. seems like bad indentation after the decorator

@wild sequoia please review all of these issues ^

[small ether]

So it's possible or not?

[wild sequoia]

it not working;/

this too

@client.event
async def on_message(message):
    if message.author.bot:
        return
    elif message.content.startswith("@azure sail"):
        embed = discord.Embed(title=f"Twoj serwer Rozrgrywki!", description=f"Serwer jest jednym z najlepszych serwerow Minecraft, serwer jest od wersji: administracja serwera stara sie aby gracze mogli cieszyc sie najlepsza jakoscia gry")
        await message.channel.send(embed=embed)
    await client.process_commands(message)```

[prisma flicker]

yes of course it's possible

[spiral coyote]

how would i check if a user has pressed a button before
Im pretty new to discord bot development, but I'm assuming i store the user that pressed that button and then check that every time someone presses the button.
im just having trouble figuring out how to store it on a per-command run basis

import discord
import os

bot = discord.Bot()
userIndex = 0


class View(discord.ui.View):
    @discord.ui.button(label="Join!", style=discord.ButtonStyle.green)
    async def button_callback(self, button, interaction):
        embed = interaction.message.embeds[0]
        field = embed.fields[userIndex]
        embed.set_field_at(index=0, value=field.value + " " + interaction.user.mention, name=field.name)
        await interaction.response.edit_message(embed=embed)


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


@bot.slash_command(name="embed", description="Say hello to the bot")
async def embedtest(ctx):
    embed = discord.Embed(title="Test", description="Embed test pog")
    embed.add_field(name="Users:", value="test")
    await ctx.respond("Ok", embed=embed, view=View())


bot.run(os.getenv('TOKEN'))  # run the bot with the token

just kind of threw this together to show what i have so far

[cyan quail]

that style of mention doesn't exist anymore

it's just <@userid>

[wild sequoia]

that working not

[cyan quail]

did you set intents

[prisma flicker]

You would store the user (probably in a set) and then just check if they're in the set at the top of the callback

[wild sequoia]

what for>

[cyan quail]

message content

?tag intents

ohok

[wild sequoia]

yes

[cyan quail]

show your full file

[spiral coyote]

i get that i would need to store the users, but where should i define the variable

[prisma flicker]

Probably in __init__ in View (please rename your class though so it doesn't conflict with the one in the library)

[spiral coyote]

ah ok

[prisma flicker]

But it depends on how many times you're going to initialize this view

[wild sequoia]

i fixed

[prisma flicker]

If it's just once it makes sense to store it in the class

[wild sequoia]

thanks neloo<33

[prisma flicker]

But if it's multiple you'll want to store it outside

[spiral coyote]

something like this, where if i have multiple instances open they will each stay independent of each other?

[cyan quail]

yes

[spiral coyote]

and also, im a bit rough on python, but does

EmbedTestView(discord.ui.View)

mean its inheriting the discord View class.
and if so am i able to add other arguments as well that could be used?

[cyan quail]

that's inheritance yes, but additional arguments should be added in the overridden __init__ function

when you do override the __init__, make sure you super().__init__() first so it has all the necessary attributes from the parent class

[spiral coyote]

alr

[wild sequoia]

wtf it working but now not

look at your indents

[cyan quail]

nono

[wild sequoia]

?

[cyan quail]

like... tab spacing

[prisma flicker]

indents look fine

[cyan quail]

[wild sequoia]

so what is wrong?

[cyan quail]

this

[wild sequoia]

json?

[prisma flicker]

oh right

[cyan quail]

you're opening a file in the middle of the class while unindented so it's split in half

[prisma flicker]

all of that is outside of the class the way it's written

[wild sequoia]

to how to repair?

[prisma flicker]

indent it so it's in the class

[wild sequoia]

oke

Does anyone know how I can make stats pages?

Name4 - 8
Name5 - 5

2. Page:

Name7 - 1
Name8 - 0

[prisma flicker]

use ext.pages and a sort by in your query

[rare ice]

could you send a screenshot of what it currently does?

and how many buttons it sends

[spiral coyote]

after pressing red button

so on an active instance of the command, the green button works, before and after pressing the red button, however the red button will give that error

wait i just realized i need to update that text anyways, so that will probably fix it

yep that fixed it

@discord.ui.button(label="Join", style=discord.ButtonStyle.green)
    async def join_button_callback(self, button, interaction):
        if interaction.user not in self.userList:
            self.userList.append(interaction.user)
            
        embed = interaction.message.embeds[0]
        user_str = " ".join([user.mention for user in self.userList])
        embed.set_field_at(index=userIndex, name="Users:", value=user_str)
        await interaction.response.edit_message(embed=embed)

    @discord.ui.button(label="Leave", style=discord.ButtonStyle.red)
    async def leave_button_callback(self, button, interaction):
        if interaction.user in self.userList:
            self.userList.remove(interaction.user)
        embed = interaction.message.embeds[0]

        user_str = " ".join([user.mention for user in self.userList])
        if user_str == "":
            user_str = "*empty :(*"
        embed.set_field_at(index=userIndex, name="Users:", value=user_str)
        await interaction.response.edit_message(embed=embed)

i could probably format this differently but itll work for now

[restive harbor]

How can i respond to an interaction silently? So that the interaction doesn't fail and i don't have to send a new message into the channel? I got it, just edit nothing

[fallen cove]

You need to install the library

it is installed tho

PyNaCl 1.5.0

you must respond in every interaction (this can include editing the message)

does heroku hosting work for pycord?

[smoky forge]

it resets after being online for a bit so don't count on it being online 24/7

[peak wing]

thats legit the only method i can find for keeping your vs code projects online 24/7 for free

and i can’t use repl its not reliable

[smoky forge]

i hosted a simple image posting twitter bot with it and it reset a lot

the bot was supposed to post every hour and it posted like twice an hour and sometimes even 30 minutes

so i think it might work if it's a small scale bot

[rare ice]

?tag norepl

[obtuse junco]

Why NOT to use Repl as a hosting platform

You should not use Repl.it to host your bot.
It may be a nice option as its "free" but you should use something else considering the major flaws.

• The machines are super underpowered.
• • This means your bot will lag a lot as it gets bigger.
• You'll need a web server alongside your bot to prevent it from being shut off.
• • This isn't a trivial task, and eats more of the machines power.
• Repl.it uses an ephemeral file system.
• • This means any file you saved via your bot will be overwritten when you next launch.

IMPORTATNT

• They use a shared IP for everything running on the service.
  This one is important - if someone is running a user bot on their service and gets banned, everyone on that IP will be banned. Including you.

Please avoid using repl.it to host your bot. It's not worth the trouble.

If you're looking for free options, consider using AWS/Google Cloud Platform/Azure and its respective free tiers or just pay for an actual VPS.

[copper dew]

i personally wouldn't trust heroku for hosting bots imo. heroku often will reset and stop the bot after a certain amount of dynos have been used. so i would recommend either self-hosting the bot (which is what i do), or host it on something like AWS or Azure. you can use their free tiers if you would like to

[prisma flicker]

with heroku I ran two projects and just switched when I ran out of time

I think they give you like 20 days per month or something

[round rivet]

it's like 28 I think

[peak wing]

ok, ty

whats the best coding program? (vscode, pycharm, replit, etc)

[copper dew]

best coding IDE? i mainly use VS Code and sometimes PyCharm. for development, i would say either would be fine

Is there a way to change the options of a discord.ui.Select ? e.g after a button press or something. I tried using super() again for a second time, but seemed to do nothing

[rocky stump]

code:

class Dropdown(discord.ui.Select):
    def __init__(self, bot_: discord.Bot):

        self.bot = bot_

        options = [
            discord.SelectOption(label=lang, description="Select this language") for lang in OCR_LANGS.keys()
        ]
        super().__init__(
            placeholder="Select A Language",
            min_values=1,
            max_values=1,
            options=options,
        )

    async def callback(self, interaction: discord.Interaction):
        super().__init__(
            placeholder="Select A Language",
            min_values=1,
            max_values=1,
            options=[discord.SelectOption(label="test123", description="Select this language")],
        )
        await interaction.response.send_message(f"test")```

^ I get the send_message, but the select options do not change after callback()

[cyan quail]

you didn't specify view

[rocky stump]

class DropdownView(discord.ui.View):
    def __init__(self, bot_: discord.Bot):
        self.bot = bot_
        super().__init__()

        # Adds the dropdown to our View object
        self.add_item(Dropdown(self.bot))```

[cyan quail]

yeah but it still isn't in that code is it

[rocky stump]

what do you mean

my select is displaying

[cyan quail]

check your last line

[rocky stump]

I don't know

[cyan quail]

you need to specify view= to send a new view

all you're doing is sending text, nothing else

[rocky stump]

I don't want to send a new view I want to edit the existing one

is that possible?

[cyan quail]

then use response.edit_message

you still need to specify view= either way

[rocky stump]

hmm okay, but what do I pass as the parameter

[cyan quail]

your view...

[rocky stump]

in the Dropdown class I do not have access in the scope

I'm confused

[cyan quail]

you can still access DropdownView

but instead of just trying to super your existing select, you're better off creating a new select menu

[rocky stump]

I see now

being able to specify x and y positions for it would be far too vague

How can I add reactions to an interaction message?

[vital blade]

you need to get the id of the message the bot is sending after u interact by using

message = await bot.get_channel(interaction.channel.id).fetch_message(interaction.message.id)

then

message.add_reaction("emoji")

i'm not sure if this works but u can try

[rare ice]

b!rtfm pyc interaction.original_message

[cyan quail]

interaction.response.send_message returns an interaction object; in this scenario, you refer to message.message to get the actual message

[rare ice]

@dire spade

[signal stratus]

Ohh ok thx

[vital blade]

u defined message twice

try changing the variable name for 2nd message thing

[cyan quail]

no... that entire 2nd line is unnecessary

[vital blade]

💀

[cyan quail]

i had the wrong attribute, you should use await message.original_message()to get the message from the interaction
https://docs.pycord.dev/en/master/api.html#discord.Interaction.original_message

[signal stratus]

Worked, thank you :D

Trying to use SlashCommandGroup but commands aren't registering

[queen prism]

Hello, I'm trying to wait for the user input when running a command, and timing out the command if the user doesn't respond/doesn't give the correct response in 30 seconds. I'm using a module called arrow and a while loop to check if 30 seconds has passed since the user executed the command, the only problem is, it isn't timing out if the user doesn't respond in 30 seconds until someone types a message, here's my current code:

end_time = arrow.utcnow().shift(seconds = 30).timestamp()
while arrow.utcnow().timestamp() - end_time < 0:
  msg = await self.client.wait_for("message")
  if msg.content == "yes":
    #my code here
else:
  await ctx.send("Timeout!")

Does anyone know how I can make it so it times out after 30 seconds if the user didn't respond or if the user didn't respond with "yes" within 30 seconds?

I don't want to use something like msg = await self.client.wait_for("message", timeout = 30) because if for example the user responds with something else than "yes" after 20 seconds, it won't timeout after 10 seconds, it'll timeout after 30 seconds.

[cerulean drum]

use check param

[queen prism]

I don't think that'd work neither.

[cerulean drum]

why not

[queen prism]

If I use the check param ( I already use it but not to check for the timeout ), It'll just not respond to you at all after 30 seconds.

It won't send "Timeout!" after it times out.

[mental maple]

ummm, how to get ctx from discord.on_message_edit(before, after)

does it give ctx tho

[mental maple]

thx

[cerulean drum]

did i?

[cerulean drum]

wut i was not referring to you

[mental maple]

nah thats answering

[queen prism]

In this example you're waiting for a reaction to be added, I'm waiting for a message not a reaction, anyway, when I tried to wait for a message while using the timeout param, it did work but that's if the user doesn't send a message at all in the last 30 seconds.

If the user sends a message after 20 seconds, it'll wait another 30 seconds to timeout instead of just 10 seconds.

[cerulean drum]

no i mean the try ... except block

[queen prism]

Yeah, I tried that.

[cerulean drum]

wait lemme process all my pepega brain
so... you wanted to wait user message right

if user said 'yes':
    ...
if timeout or not 'yes'
    ...

you want the bot to keep waiting until timeout or force to timoeut even the message was not true/'yes'

[queen prism]

If user said "yes", the bot will do something
If the user didn't say "yes" or the user kept saying something else, the bot should timeout after 30 seconds.

Basically the bot should timeout after 30 seconds from running the command not 30 seconds after the last user message.

If that makes sense.

[quick temple]

Is it possible to click a button then have a slash command autofilled?

and shown

[verbal gulch]

How i can create a textchannel in a selected category? It will be via buttons.

[cerulean drum]

this example works fine on me @obtuse vale

with check and try .. excpet

[queen prism]

It does work, but when I wait for a message, if the user keeps sending something else than "yes" it won't timeout.

[cerulean drum]

then you only check the author of message

and do the content logic under else exception

[queen prism]

Still not what I'm looking for but thanks anyway.

How can i detect if someone joined specific voice channel

or left

[proud pagoda]

It should:

try:
  msg = await self.bot.wait_for('message', timeout=30, check=lambda m: m.author == ctx.author and m.content.lower() == "yes")
except asyncio.TimeoutError:
  return await ctx.send("You've timed out!")
# Now do whatever else you needed to do
...

That'll send a message and return if it times out

And it will also do nothing if the author sends something other than "yes"

Make an attempt lmao.

I won't code for you nor have time

[frank yew]

Hi guys, how can I do something when someone reacts to any message? With something like this

@bot.listen()
async def on_message(message):
        #check reaction

``` ?

I don't know if this is the most effective way because I would only like to record the reactions of one channel.

[full basin]

on_message doesn't detect reaction add

on_reaction_add or on_raw_reaction_add

[simple canopy]

@bot.listen() its actually a thing, i never saw it

[full basin]

Lmao didn't notice

Oh is it

[simple canopy]

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

[peak wing]

  def __init__(self, bot):
    self.bot = bot

  @discord.ui.button(label="yes", style=discord.ButtonStyle.green)
  async def button_callback(self, button, interaction):
      if interaction.user.id != self.user.author.id:
        return await interaction.response.send_message('no')

      channelthings = [interaction.channel.category, interaction.channel.position]
      await interaction.channel.clone()
      await interaction.channel.delete()
      nukedchannel = channelthings[0].text_channels[-1]
      await nukedchannel.edit(position=channelthings[1])

  @discord.ui.button(label="no", style=discord.ButtonStyle.red)
  async def button(self, button, interaction):
      if interaction.user.id != self.user.author.id:
        return await interaction.response.send_message('no')
      await interaction.message.delete()

@bot.command()
@commands.has_guild_permissions(administrator=True)
async def nuke(ctx):
  embed = discord.Embed(description=f'{ctx.author.mention} are you sure you want to nuke this channel?', colour=0x303135)
  await ctx.send(embed=embed, view=View2())
``` ```discord.ext.commands.errors.CommandInvokeError: Command raised an exception: TypeError: __init__() missing 1 required positional argument: 'bot'``` i get this error when i try to use the command huh?

[true stump]

Is it possible to make hidden slash commands?
When listing all commands, I got an error saying that SlashCommand doesn't have an attribute hidden

[tulip bobcat]

on the bottom, you don’t pass bot to the View2() object

[sonic lotus]

async def testing(self, ctx):
    test_list = ["a", "b", "c", "d", "e", "f", "g", "h", "i", "j", "k", "l", "m", "n", "o", "p", "q", "r", "s", "t", "u", "v", "w", "x", "y", "z"]
    await ctx.send(f"``{''.join(test_list)}``")
    # await ctx.send(f"``{'\n'.join(test_list)}``")

Why does the second line (Join on \n) completely disable my cog when enabled?
It doesn't load but also no error, just silently ignores the whole Cog

[tulip bobcat]

the best you can do is, to change the default_permissions in guilds, e.g. manage_messages, and everyone without the permissions won’t see the command

[agile merlin]

How do I get the url of a webhook, I have tried discord.Webhook.url but it returns this thing, <property object at 0x7f9c04f93a60>.

[tulip bobcat]

you can't use escaped characters like \n in the formatted string

[sonic lotus]

Ah thanks, mb. But why doesn't it throw any error?

[prisma flicker]

does .edit do nothing if the message doesn't actually change?

[tulip bobcat]

idk

[sonic lotus]

😄

[tulip bobcat]

I think it sends a request anyway, but not sure, at least that's how the implementation looks like to me

[true stump]

I see, thanks!
That's too bad. No more easter eggs ig.

[prisma flicker]

I'm getting interaction did not respond when I just try to edit the message

[tulip bobcat]

because you don’t respond

[tulip bobcat]

yeah...

I guess most you can do in terms of easter eggs, is specific inputs for the parameters

[prisma flicker]

editing counts as responding

[tulip bobcat]

it does?

[prisma flicker]

if the embed changes, it works as expected

yes

[tulip bobcat]

oh

i didn’t know

[prisma flicker]

it's only if it doesn't change it fails

[true stump]

Yeah, I guess I'll find a way. Most are owner-only or restricted to specific users anyway.

[tulip bobcat]

that's weird

[prisma flicker]

actually I think something else is wrong now, now it doesn't work at all 😄

[tulip bobcat]

you may be able to load and unload commands dynamically as well, if that's something you want to look into
(unloading doesn’t work properly tho)

[tulip bobcat]

normal coding problems 😂

[prisma flicker]

I shouldn't change 2 things at once

[true stump]

Maybe I just keep them as prefixed commands, so they only work in dms or when you mention the bot. This would be pretty easter-eggly ig ^^

[tulip bobcat]

@true stump I had the issue with unregistereing commands 2 days ago, maybe the question could help you #1006918207703101440

or that way

[prisma flicker]

oh I forgot to return true in interaction_check

eh I guess deleting and re-sending works fine

I wanted to avoid that but 🤷

-                await queue_last_msg.edit(embed=embed, view=view)
+                if queue_last_msg:
+                    await queue_last_msg.delete()
+                queue_last_msg = await self.bot.get_channel(session.id).send(embed=embed, view=view)```

[tulip bobcat]

I'm sure there is a way around it

[prisma flicker]

if there is I don't know it

short of spamming the user with ephemeral messages

[cyan quail]

im pretty sure it does

since it still sends the request

[prisma flicker]

it wasn't counting as a response to the interaction at least

[cyan quail]

from what i just tested it worked fine

[prisma flicker]

interesting

[cyan quail]

@prisma flicker nope, it's all raw permissions; any role that matches the permissions you pass in will also be able to use the command

or i guess any user

[prisma flicker]

thought so

so there's no way to programatically add roles to the integrations screen?

[cyan quail]

nope

discord doesn't let you add anything there without a bearer token now

[prisma flicker]

isn't the idea that integrations can bypass like discord.ext.commands.has_any_role

ah interesting

[cyan quail]

no

the ext.commands checks are internal

so integrations menu permissions can't bypass them

[prisma flicker]

internal to pycord?

[cyan quail]

yes, they're on the bot end

[prisma flicker]

so what decorators can integrations bypass

[cyan quail]

they don't

[prisma flicker]

I'm so confused lol

[cyan quail]

integrations menu stops commands from being shown at all to users who don't have the necessary permissions

and if they do somehow see it, they still can't run it

[prisma flicker]

so it's only to make it more restrictive, not less?

[cyan quail]

yes

ext.commands permissions will still let the command "execute", but it'll just raise a CheckFailure

[prisma flicker]

right, and let the user see it

[cyan quail]

yes

[prisma flicker]

where discord.commands.default_permissions hides it from the user

[cyan quail]

mhm

for owner-only/potentially dangerous commands, internal checks are basically a must have

[prisma flicker]

I do it in the actual code right now

[cyan quail]

that works too

[prisma flicker]

@commands.user_command(guild_ids=[717808299675877406], name="Gulag")
# @discord.commands.default_permissions(ban_members=True)
# @discord.ext.commands.has_permissions(ban_members=True)
async def gulag_ctx(self, ctx, member: discord.Member):
    """Sends the member to the gulag"""
    if not await check_access(ctx, "Gulag", mods_only=True):
        return```

[cyan quail]

and of course there were always used pre-slash command, and for example the lib would hide commands from the help command by default if the user didn't meet permissions

because of the can_run function

[prisma flicker]

can I do that with a custom help?

[cyan quail]

yep, you just implement https://docs.pycord.dev/en/master/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.Command.can_run

[prisma flicker]

coming back to this real quick, I was thinking about the paginator too, how the buttons just edit

so like this?

for command in self.bot.walk_application_commands():
    if not await command.can_run(ctx):
        continue```

[cyan quail]

yeah

[prisma flicker]

sweet

[cyan quail]

that'd be the goto_page function https://github.com/Pycord-Development/pycord/blob/master/discord/ext/pages/pagination.py#L601

[errant crane]

discord/ext/pages/pagination.py line 601

async def goto_page(self, page_number: int = 0, *, interaction: Optional[discord.Interaction] = None) -> None:```

[cyan quail]

it basically always defers if it's from an interaction

[prisma flicker]

heh that throws MissingPermissions

[cyan quail]

oh right it raises an error oops

if you're making a custom help, it's pretty helpful to just inspect what the default help command does https://github.com/Pycord-Development/pycord/blob/master/discord/ext/commands/help.py#L263

[prisma flicker]

ok cool

[errant crane]

discord/ext/commands/help.py line 263

class HelpCommand:```

[prisma flicker]

I already have one, it just didn't have that check

[cyan quail]

ah right

[prisma flicker]

also have it set the number of elements depending on whether you're on mobile 😛

[cyan quail]

o nice

[prisma flicker]

if member.is_on_mobile():
    limit = 9
else:
    limit = 24```

[cyan quail]

oh i forgot this is kinda implemented for you with filter_commands https://docs.pycord.dev/en/master/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.HelpCommand.filter_commands

[prisma flicker]

so in summary the only visual change in integrations is the (Default) going away?

ah

[cyan quail]

yep pretty much

[prisma flicker]

what's the filter criteria

[cyan quail]

checks if the user can run it, and optionally checks if the command has hidden=True set

which i think is default

underlying code for it https://github.com/Pycord-Development/pycord/blob/master/discord/ext/commands/help.py#L532

[errant crane]

discord/ext/commands/help.py line 532

async def filter_commands(self, commands, *, sort=False, key=None):```

[prisma flicker]

hidden is False by default

[cyan quail]

i mean it by default checks if hidden

and if so hides it from help

[prisma flicker]

yeah

[cyan quail]

hey it even does default/custom sorting if you care

[prisma flicker]

hidden just hides it from the default help?

[cyan quail]

yes

[prisma flicker]

yeah I think they're sorted by... order loaded by default?
