#

not in order

#

...why would you send your code out of order?

    user = ctx.author

  await ctx.send(embed=embed)```
cyan quail
#

ok so

#

just make it a variable instead

#

like status = user.status.name, then edit status

peak wing
#

hmm

cyan quail
#

some objects you can't just write to directly

peak wing
#

so status = user.status.name, and if status == 'idle': and i can go on from there?

cyan quail
#

yeah

peak wing
# 
discord.ext.commands.errors.CommandInvokeError: Command raised an exception: AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'status'```
# 
async def ui(ctx, user: discord.Member = None):
  status = user.status.name
  if user == None:
    user = ctx.author

    status = abcd
  
  pos = sum(m.joined_at < user.joined_at for m in ctx.guild.members if m.joined_at is not None)

cyan quail
#

this time it's ACTUALLY wrong order

#

you can see in your own command, if the user doesn't specify a user then user = None

peak wing
#

OHH

#

ok, this worked, ty @cyan quail

cyan quail
#

allgood

peak wing
# cyan quail allgood

my code is ```@client.command()
async def ui(ctx, user: discord.Member = None):
if user == None:
user = ctx.author
status = user.status.name
bnnr = f'Banner'
if status == 'idle':
status = abcd
if status == 'offline':
status = abc
if status == 'online':
status = ab
if status == 'dnd':
status = a
pos = sum(m.joined_at < user.joined_at for m in ctx.guild.members if m.joined_at is not None)
joined = user.joined_at.timestamp()
creation = user.created_at.timestamp()

cyan quail
prisma flicker
#

well, it could be

#

but I guess both are important

peak wing
#

the avatar line isn’t the problem its the banner

cyan quail
#

oh true

#

fair enough then

simple canopy
#

is there display_banner

#

🤔

cyan quail
#

i don't think so...?

prisma flicker
cyan quail
#

oh right

#

you can only get banner from an api request

simple canopy
prisma flicker
cyan quail
#

hm

#

yeah

prisma flicker
#

await*

cyan quail
#

actually

#

no

simple canopy
#

@prisma flicker i mean, its kinda... banner?

unknown.png
cyan quail
#

client.fetch_user

#

i don't know if you can get the guild set banner

prisma flicker
peak wing
#

how can i fix.. my error?

cyan quail
#

maybe i'll test

simple canopy
prisma flicker
cyan quail
#

yeah you can't get it from fetch_member

#

odd that it isn't available

simple canopy
#

if only everything had default values...

prisma flicker
#

how is guild.fetch_member different from client.fetch_user

cyan quail
#

the former fetches a member object

prisma flicker
#

I feel like they should be the same

cyan quail
#

the latter fetches a generic user object

#

well not generic

simple canopy
cyan quail
#

but you can use it to fetch any discord user

prisma flicker
#

or guild.fetch_member should call fetch_user but add the guild stuff?

simple canopy
cyan quail
#

no, fetch_member is a different endpoint

prisma flicker
#

ah

simple canopy
#

i mean, fetch_member returns you member

#

and fetch_user a user

#

so ye, it just adds guild stuff probably

prisma flicker
#

well yes I get that

#

but I didn't realize they were different endpoints

peak wing
#

..

cyan quail
peak wing
simple canopy
cyan quail
#

though you're better off not including it since your command doesn't even fetch_user

#

so banner will always be None

#

I am running a big loop that takes a lot of time (a lot of iteration). I am currently doing at the end of each iteration of the loop await asyncio.sleep(0) to give the chance for the bot to take requests. Is there a better way to do it, because I sometime get error when user are doing slash command that the bot is not responding (the bot is using 100 % of the core it is assign because of that loop, the not responding probably comes from that)

#

I would want that loop to be executed in the "background"

prisma flicker
#

you can defer in your commands

undone falcon
#

I use defer in all my commands yes

prisma flicker
#

then you shouldn't ever see the not responding message

undone falcon
#

at some points it was apperaing often

prisma flicker
#

can you put the loop in a separate process that runs alongside your bot?

#

or break it up into pieces?

#

or only do a few iterations every minute?

undone falcon
prisma flicker
#

you can use locks

#

mutex/semaphore

undone falcon
#

that is true yes, I could probally look into that

#

thank you !

cyan quail
#

could you not use the tasks extension?

solemn spire
#

How do you use Options in slash commands?
What's wrong with this code because all of my slash commands disappeared

Option(
    discord.SlashCommandOptionType(),
    "your",
    required=False,
    default="Show",
    choices=[OptionChoice(name="Show"), OptionChoice(name="Adopt")]
)
prisma flicker
errant craneBOT
#

Here's the slash options example.

solemn spire
#

thanks

#

ok so

#

my slash commands reappeared for some reason

solemn spire
solemn spire
prisma flicker
#

why don't you just do choices=["Show","Adopt"]

solemn spire
#

I dont know

#

usually the more complicated stuff is better

prisma flicker
#

KISS

What is the proper way to reference Pycord in a requirements.txt file?
I generated mine with pipreqs --encoding utf-8 "./"
This was the output:

discord.py==1.7.3
requests==2.28.1

When deploying the bot to PloxHost and running it, though, this error is generated:
AttributeError: module 'discord' has no attribute 'Bot'

(Note: The application runs perfectly fine on my local machine.)

smoky forge
prisma flicker
#

or py-cord==2.0.1

solemn spire
charred shale
#

Thank you both!

prisma flicker
solemn spire
#

the complete opposite lol

prisma flicker
#

what

solemn spire
#

store=True

prisma flicker
#

well that's the default

#

that returns a dict of errors instead of raising them

solemn spire
#

no errors

prisma flicker
#

how do you know? are you printing out the dict?

solemn spire
#

no

#

noithing

prisma flicker
#

then how can you say there's no errors

solemn spire
#

oh wait

#

module not found which is weird because its for another cog

#

and it worked before let me fix it quickly

#

what even is this
Extension 'app.cogs.pets' raised an error: TypeError: EnumMeta.__call__() missing 1 required positional argument: 'value'

prisma flicker
#

are you using enums in your pets cog

solemn spire
#

wait

# 
File "d:\Desktop\peer\app\cogs\pets.py", line 20, in pets_cog
discord.SlashCommandOptionType(),
TypeError: EnumMeta.__call__() missing 1 required positional argument: 'value'
prisma flicker
#

idk what discord.SlashCommandOptionType is but it sounds like you have to pass in value to it

#

did you ReadTheDocs

cyan quail
#

(their usage is very wrong)

solemn spire
#

yes i did

#

its an input type

cyan quail
#

i guess it's not that bad but the first argument should just be a standard input type

#

like str

#

there's no reason to use discord.SlashCommandOptionType, it's just used internally

solemn spire
#

im using optionchoice tho

cyan quail
#

that's fine

solemn spire
#

oh

prisma flicker
#

you can literally just do like Option(str, "gender", description="Choose your gender", choices=["Male", "Female", "Other"])

#

you don't need any of that extra stuff

solemn spire
#

Omg it works

#

thank you so much

#

ima go sleep now

prisma flicker
#

good night and remember KISS 😛

sweet tiger
#

is it possible for a bot.event to get message content? currently every message's content is just blank

silver moat
#

?tag message-content

obtuse juncoBOT
#

As of Pycord Beta 5, Discord API v10 requires message content intent to receive message content. This affects the traditional commands. Not enabling this intent will result in the messages' content, embeds, and components being empty.

You will need to enable the intent on the developer portal, as well as in your code:

intents = discord.Intents.default()
intents.message_content = True
bot = discord.Bot(intents=intents)

So @everyone is an option in discord.Roles. But when I try to mention the id of what it spits out it shows as @@everyone

silver moat
celest lichen
#

is there something i can add to my main.py that forces discord to update the slash commands it has registered for my bot on each deploy?

prisma flicker
celest lichen
#

i have an on_ready but no on_connect, could that still do it?

prisma flicker
#

maybe, just call super().on_ready()

celest lichen
#

wdym? after my normal on_ready?

#

this is my on_ready, btw

unknown.png
prisma flicker
#

yeah that's fine

#

so what problem are you having?

#

are you subclassing bot?

celest lichen
#

my problem is just that one of my slash commands isn't showing up when my bot is running lmao

prisma flicker
#

just one?

celest lichen
#

well honestly it's my only slash command

unknown.png
#

so i'm not sure

#

i'm using commands.Bot

orchid kernel
prisma flicker
celest lichen
#

honestly i have no idea, i just have it at the end for neatness

#

ah there u go

round rivet
#

bot.run has to be at the end

#

because its blocking

celest lichen
#

yeah so

#

any ideas abt my slash command lol

prisma flicker
#

can you try @commands.slash_command() instead

orchid kernel
#

Given that my bot is using only slash commands, is it better to use @bot.slash_command instead of @bot.command? Or is it the exact same thing?

unknown.png
near hollow
#

if you are using discord.Bot it doesn't matter

orchid kernel
#

Yes I do

unknown.png
near hollow
#

Yea in that case bot.command is the same thing as bot.slash_command

prisma flicker
prisma flicker
near hollow
#

I thought they were on discord.Bot

#

Only commands.Bot support prefixed commands right?

prisma flicker
#

why did you delete your messages

orchid kernel
#

My screenshot was false

#

Need to verify myself before putting back my message

prisma flicker
#

👍

orchid kernel
#

Okay so yeah, I will switch for coherency and readability, since slash_command is formally in the documentation and that I only use this type of commands, otherwise it may be ambiguous

orchid kernel
prisma flicker
#

you're mixing context and command

hello

i have an if else statement right

if x then post "success!" if y then post "fail"

#

the issue is that it doesn't post anything if it fails, not sure why

it just says "interaction failed"

but the "you are now whitelisted" works flawlessly

Hey! What is the best practice for creating View? Creating class that inherits View or a functional approach (e.g. View.add_item())? Probably depends on the situation, but it's very interesting to hear an aside opinion.

#

this is a bit of a weird question but as an environment variable, what object should i store a database url as? this is postgres i'm talking about here

#

what i mean by this is

#

i'm trying to implement a database into my bot so i have some persistency on toggling commands on and off in different servers or channels

#

heroku stores the info for the psycopg2 connection in an environment variable called DATABASE_URL

#

i need my db to work locally as well for testing, but i feel like it would be way cleaner if i just had all that user="blaith", host="127.0.0.1" stuff in my .env file

#

but i'm not really sure what to store it as. a string? a list? a dict?

Because I have 10 owner commands. They have different functionalities. One is for status, the other is for reloading extensions, the other stops the bot etc. I don’t want other people in my guild to see them. It’s easy to restrict them from using them, but I want to hide them

I think that’s a good reason for message intent to be given. Sometimes there are a lot of controls. And it’s easier to manage your app in the channel rather in terminal especially connecting through mobile phones

An object that supports the Buffer Protocol and can export a C-contiguous buffer. This includes all bytes, bytearray, and array.array objects, as well as many common memoryview objects. Bytes-like objects can be used for various operations that work with binary data; these include compression, saving to a binary file, and sending over a socket.

Some operations need the binary data to be mutable. The documentation often refers to these as “read-write bytes-like objects”. Example mutable buffer objects include bytearray and a memoryview of a bytearray. Other operations require the binary data to be stored in immutable objects (“read-only bytes-like objects”); examples of these include bytes and a memoryview of a bytes object.```

it's just give me a couroutine

yes, because couroutines should be awaited

it will give you discord.Message object

If I have a list of unique floats, and a total, how do I most easily find the combination of floats from those lists which perfectly adds upto the total?

Example:
float list -> [[0.1, 0.2, 0.3], [0.33, 0.23, 0.12]]

I want to find the numbers from those lists which total 0.42 which would be 0.3 and 0.12

silver moat
#

of course you can brute force it. But first I have to ask you if this is homework or not

bright shard
#

id brute force it but i feel like theres a more elegant solution

bright shard
silver moat
#

¯_(ツ)_/¯

frank thistle
#

I was just gonna brute force it too, wanted to see if theres any better suggestions. Looked on stack overflow but I think im wording my problem wrong when I google it so im not getting the results im looking for after multiple rewordings

cyan quail
#

why are they even in separate lists

silver moat
#

I forgot what exactly but something in itertools is helpful

frank thistle
#

And i know, why not use a dict

cyan quail
#

i mean if the solution can use numbers from any list then you might as well just convert it to a single list

frank thistle
#

I dont know, I just didnt do it that way and now I dont want to change it xd

prisma flicker
#

If they're sorted you can make some optimizations

frank thistle
#

I cant combine them

#

So those lists of floats are the healing values from certain items in a game

#

Theres 3 of them because 2 of them are the healing value + a buff

#

So i have multiple lists for each item for each increment (level) of the buffs

bright shard
#

so youre basically trying to know what healing items to use to heal the exact amt of health you need?

frank thistle
#

No im trying to predict the healing items used when I only know the percentage gain of their health

prisma flicker
#

Sounds like no something you should let the user figure out

frank thistle
#

Each float is a percentage gain

prisma flicker
#

Oh...

frank thistle
#

Im doing this because that information isnt publicly available (the items they use)

#

But the amount their health is gained by is

cyan quail
#

what happens if there's multiple possible combinations?

prisma flicker
#

Why not just have the items used trigger a callback

Anyway, heres all the lists and combos. It doesnt matter if theres multiple combinations across different items which total X.. however it does matter if theres multiple combinations to the same value in the same item which total X

cyan quail
#

like if you're trying to predict from a heal of 0.6 and your first pass uses 0.1 for the first item, restrict checks of the 2nd item to values around 0.5

frank thistle
#

Ok will do, might be a silly question but is there a better way to brute force than using a while loop and ensuring a result?

prisma flicker
#

Similar to what Nelo said, if each list is sorted, you can stop when you're too high or whatever

frank thistle
#

Yeah thats the plan, but if there is no result how do I know when its checked all possible combinations so it doesnt sit in an endless loop

cyan quail
#

nested for?

bright shard

i have an idea of how you could do that

cyan quail
#

would end itself

bright shard
#

im still new so forgive me if this is dumb but

frank thistle
#

Ive been doing python for years lol but this is something ive never tried

bright shard
#

could you take the first value in the list, iterate through the rest of the list seeing if first value + the value in the list is the answer?

prisma flicker
#

I think you can use set theory to solve it

frank thistle
#

I guess with enough time ill get it :p

frank thistle
bright shard
frank thistle
#

Yeah, its always a combination, never just a single

prisma flicker
frank thistle
#

Yes it is, in that case it just assumes the highest item (blood bag)

#

Thats all you can do in that situation

#

Actually no

prisma flicker
#

Or 6 small first aid kit

#

Or some other combination

frank thistle
#

No no, so you can see the amount of items used

#

And you can see the % health gained, you just cant see the items they used

cyan quail
#

fwiw this is NP-hard lol

prisma flicker
#

I feel like you've engineered a problem when there's a much easier solution

frank thistle
#

yeah probably

frank thistle
cyan quail
cyan quail
frank thistle
#

Alright ill try it, thanks a bunch lads

prisma flicker
#

So you can see "they used 3 items and healed 0.3"?

frank thistle
#

Yeah it doesnt say that but thats the parts I calculate

prisma flicker
#

Why can't you know the individual items used

frank thistle
#

Because thats just not what the game allows for

#

It would provide a competitive advantage

cyan quail
#

eh

frank thistle
#

And thats the advantage im trying to gain by making this kind of prediction / calculating system

prisma flicker
#

I don't get it but okay

cyan quail
#

if you really want, you could just precompute the values of every combination and have that saved as a dict

frank thistle
#

Yeah I could do that

cyan quail
#

the key being the total and the value being a list of the possible combinations

frank thistle
#

Thats a fuck ton of numbers hahah my brain is gonna be fried

prisma flicker
#

Or at the very least cache it in memory so it doesn't have to compute every single time

cyan quail
#

GuraShrug far, far less processing on the user's end though

#

yeah like

frank thistle
#

Yeah ill store it somewhere, once I can calculate them all

cyan quail
#

compute it all once when the bot starts

#

make it a dict

frank thistle
#

The number of combinations should never change (unless they add new items to heal)

#

So i can just store it permanently in json or smth

prisma flicker
#

You can cache it but not precompute everything, so the first time is slow

#

Easier to program 😛

cyan quail
frank thistle
#

Yeah thats a good idea, ill do that for the initial combinations too (that huge amount of floats)

#

Since its just being calculated each time its needed which is hella inefficient

cyan quail
#

do be careful with floating point accuracy though

#

might end up with some fun keys

frank thistle
#

I round them all to try avoid that

cyan quail
#

fair enough

frank thistle
#

Doesnt always work

#

sometimes even when rounding they come out like

#

0.13000000000000000003

cyan quail
#

maybe multiply them all enough to be ints?

frank thistle
#

When rounded to 3dp

cyan quail
#

then just round to 1

frank thistle
#

Might cause inaccuracies tho if it rounds up

rugged lantern
#

no it wont

frank thistle
#

prob best to just chop everything off after the 3rd dp

cyan quail
#

round to 3dp and multiply by 1000

#

close enough

frank thistle
#

yeah will do, thanks guys

#

I should be able to save some compute time, if its the first item in one of the float lists, it'll be the first item chosen in all of them

How can i create a check using an url_regex. Checking if a message contains a link. For a purge command

Hi I just startet making discord Bots and need help with an error.
Im using Pycord and want to make a Button.
But everytime I try to create one I get this error message ;

ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'discord.ui'

I dont know how to fix this. In every Tutorial video I saw thy just used Pycord and did now Install anyhting other. And even in the official Docs they dont install anything other than Pycord. Does anyone know something?

prisma flicker
#

can you show me what you installed?

gentle flare
#

I installed py-cord like this : python3 -m pip install py-cord

#

Is there something other that I need to install

prisma flicker
#

and the line of code that's erroring?

gentle flare
#

I used the sample code from the Guide.

prisma flicker
#

can you send it

gentle flare
# 
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

@bot.slash_command() # Create a slash command
async def button(ctx):
    await ctx.respond("This is a button!", view=View()) # Send a message with our View class that contains the button
prisma flicker
#

can you try this at the top of the file
from discord.ui import View
and change that to just class View(View)

    def __init__(self, *args, **kwargs) -> None:
        super().__init__(timeout=None,*args, **kwargs)

    async def callback(self, interaction: discord.Interaction):

        embed = discord.Embed(color = discord.Color.blue(), title="Open Ticket")
        embed.set_author(
            name        = interaction.user.display_name, 
            icon_url    = interaction.user.display_avatar
            )
        embed.add_field(name="Problem:", value=self.children[0].value)

        overwrites = {
            interaction.guild.default_role: discord.PermissionOverwrite(read_messages=False),
            interaction.user: discord.PermissionOverwrite(read_messages=True, read_message_history=True, send_messages=True)
        }
        ticket = await interaction.guild.create_text_channel(f'ticket-{interaction.user.display_name}', overwrites=overwrites)

        await ticket.send_message(embeds=[embed])

Still it works. I dont know whats wrong but I dont get a error message in the console.

prisma flicker
gentle flare
#

can you give me an example pls

prisma flicker
gentle flare
#

ah so it needs to give a "respond" or what does it mean?

prisma flicker
#

you must respond to every interaction

#

slash commands, buttons, modals

gentle flare
#

ah ok thx. That helped me alot

prisma flicker
#

that response can be sending a message or editing the message

Make sure to always remove your token, or use a .env

combine them into one string if you want but don't pass in 2 options to respond

sure you can make an embed, or just make one string

subclass View and add the buttons there

you can do:

ctx.respond(mystring)
ctx.respond(mystring, embed=myembed)
ctx.respond(embed=myembed)
ctx.respond(embed=myembed,view=myview)
ctx.respond(mystring,view=myview)``` etc but only one arg, the rest should be kwargs

Why is the bool is_news() not working? it should be colored in yellow

#

could it be because i have to check the isinstance? to make sure its a text channel?

#

but if i do that it could affect the other code

entire code for channel update

@obtuse junco

whole reason I use pycord is cause repl supports it lol

Don’t use replit it’s not recommended and it’s a very unstable host.

rigid sable

ok

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.

dyno hates me

prisma flicker
#

replit supports any python lib, you just have to set up the configs right

rigid sable
#

What exactly does this mean?

rigid sable
smoky forge
#

a single host can have many files running at once

#

if one gets rate limited it means the rest will

Set it as a class attribute?

fervent cradle
#

on the init?

#

to access it from outside the class I use view_ui_buttons.attribute ?

#

long time without using python i forgot

Inside a class, the class is referenced with self

any ideas on how to wait for both to get confirmed without breaking the discord buttons?

#

the while: wait() line breaks the buttons

wintry shell
#

how do i print("$bro nah")

#

it doesnt print the $

full basin
cyan quail
fervent cradle
#

i mean

#

i need to wait for each person to press a button

cyan quail
#

how about

fervent cradle
full basin
#

Can't you continue? Isn't that a keyword for while loops

cyan quail
#

you just shouldn't use while lol

#

that'll block your entire bot

full basin
#

Are while loops even good for async

fervent cradle
#

hmmm

fervent cradle
full basin
#

My thought was right

fervent cradle
#

wait wtf im using wait instead of time.sleep isn't that the problem?

cyan quail
#

both of those would suck

full basin
#

That was what I was thinking.

fervent cradle
#

yes but i need to check each person and also if one of them missclickes they should be able to click the right one

cyan quail
#

that's not too hard is it

full basin
#

That's just an if statement

#

Before running view.stop

cyan quail
#

also note view.wait() will return True if it timed out naturally, and False if it was stopped; you should use this to verify if it was actually pressed or the view ran out of time

fervent cradle
#

my head hurts
basically my client wants the view to persist

full basin
#

How's that a problem

errant craneBOT
#

Here's the persistent example.

fervent cradle
#

well

#

the buttons cant be disabled and the buttons cant disappear

#

so if i do view.stop()

cyan quail
#

that's the default behavior...

#

hm

full basin
#

Wdym you can't disable them
