Does running your code take longer than 3 seconds with latency factored in?

[slender abyss]

no its not the case

[proud mason]

Hmm

[slender abyss]

what is the required latency ?

heroku gives 19ms

[proud mason]

Uh there is no required latency

Slower is better

[slender abyss]

i get 60ms from my host

[proud mason]

Super good

You are fine even when it is below 200

[slender abyss]

hmm then why this

tbh this is not the only button

[proud mason]

No idea tbh
If you were responding more than once it would have said interaction already responded

But that's not the case

[slender abyss]

it all started from here

idk what jab is trying to say

[proud pagoda]

Are you running multiple bot instances?

[lime lichen]

is there a place i can see discord.Interaction.data dict keys?

im trying to get the command usage

or command message content

[proud mason]

Discord docs?

[proud mason]

Resetting token will remove that from happy

[lime lichen]

ty ty

[solid agate]

Anyone having trouble with Autocomplete being utterly broken over the last few days?

I see the bot adding the right list to the autocomplete, but just erroring out over being a task 🤔

[slender abyss]

no

i thought making the interaction work like this would help it but no

now what im thinking to avoid this is that im gonna defer the interaction and just send a normal message in that channel its not like it was ephemeral before

[proud pagoda]

Try doing interaction.followup.send instead of interaction.response.send_message. Also replace interaction.message.edit with interation.response.edit_message

[slender abyss]

im doing the same right? in the try block

[proud pagoda]

Yeah, but also try replacing the interaction.message.edit

[slender abyss]

okay

[lime lichen]

when i use both min_value and max_value, like shown in the example discord.Option code, the command does not register (and is removed) from my testing server

nevermind, i realized my problem

[lime lichen]

can you use tasks with cogs for separate files?

[cyan quail]

tasks work fine in cogs yes

[lime lichen]

how do you start said tasks?

[cyan quail]

im pretty sure most of the task examples already use cogs

[lime lichen]

where is an example?

[cyan quail]

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

[rare ice]

https://guide.pycord.dev/extensions/tasks/#example-usage (2nd example)

[lime lichen]

just starts in the init ig

ok, thanks

[young edge]

what is the exact amount of time until an ephemeral message become invalid (not sure if thats the right word). i cant find a specific number either on the pycord docs nor on the official discord api. according to this dicord faq (https://support.discord.com/hc/en-us/articles/1500000580222-Ephemeral-Messages-FAQ), it just says "These messages disappear when you [...] wait long enough" and "They'll disappear after a little bit of time..."

its 15 minutes

[lime lichen]

does discord.commands.Bot.reload_extention(...) update slash command ui stuff? for example options

[hushed ledge]

One message removed from a suspended account.

[naive remnant]

How can I make a timeout for a command

[full basin]

Timeout for a command?

[worn void]

How can I reply to a dropdown with a button?

I'm trying this

    async def select_callback(self, select, interaction): # the function called when the user is done selecting options
        if select.values[0] == "Shoppy":
            await interaction.response.send_message(view=SubStoreMenuShoppy)
        else:
            await interaction.response.send_message(view=SubStoreMenuPatreon)

[full basin]

I think you must have content

Can't send a view alone

[cyan quail]

you can

[cyan quail]

what is SubStoreMenuShoppy etc.

[worn void]

class SubStoreMenuShoppy(discord.ui.View):
  def __init__(self):
    super().__init__(timeout=None)
    PayPalPage = discord.ui.Button(label='Shoppy Link', style=discord.ButtonStyle.gray, url='')
    self.add_item(PayPalPage)

@cyan quail

[cyan quail]

you never called it

SubStoreMenuShoppy()

[worn void]

ah

i tried that im pretty sure

AH guess not lmao

thanks, it works now

How do I make it so it shows the "dismiss message" think so it only shows for you

do I just add ephemeral=True?

[fierce elm]

If its from a slash command yes

Or application command type specifically

[rare ice]

Why is this happening with motor? And how do I fix it?

[hearty mauve]

My cog file isntworking, anyone know the issue

# main.py at the bottom of code:

for file in os.listdir('Cog'): 
    if file.endswith('.py'):
      client.load_extension(f'Cog.' + file[:-3]) 

# Cog/staff.py:

class staff(commands.Cog):
    def __init__(self, client):
         self.client = client

@commands.slash_command(name='mute', description='Mutes <user> for <duration> minutes because of <reason> using discords new timeouts')
@commands.has_guild_permissions(moderate_members=True)
async def mute(self, ctx, member: discord.Member, duration, reason):
    minutes = datetime.timedelta(minutes=int(duration))
    await member.timeout_for(minutes, reason=reason)
muteem=discord.embed(title=f"{member.mention} was muted for {minutes} for {reason}", color=0x2F3136)
await ctx.message.delete()
    await ctx.respond(embed=muteem)

def setup(client):
  client.add_cog(staff(client)))

[slender abyss]

try using the setup function

[slender abyss]

interaction.response.edit_message is will not send an ephemeral message

i mean i want to edit the message + send a response

[hearty mauve]

What's rhat

[hearty mauve]

I used a definition

[slender abyss]

import your file name
your_file_name.setup(client)

setup is a function in your cog file

you can run that function

from main file

[slender abyss]

even interaction.response.edit_message isn't working

[hearty mauve]

Ok

So i import in mainpy and use setup in cog file

[slender abyss]

in main file import cog_file_name without.py in the end and then use cog_file.setup(client)

if it's in a folder you can use
from cogs import cog_file
cog_file.setup(client)

[devout nimbus]

this wont work with no error, any help?

[worn void]

How can I get a user object with the pycord dropdown?

[young bone]

Interaction.user?

[tulip bobcat]

you never sent something in the first place

[devout nimbus]

your probably on mobile lol

[tulip bobcat]

i'm not

you have your command, and inside set up a select menu, but you never sent the select

[chrome skiff]

Is the "Pause Invites" feature already in pycord?

anything like guild.pause_invites or smth?

[fervent cradle]

how can i get Bot Latency And API Latency

[chrome skiff]

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

[fervent cradle]

Inst that only client ping,

[chrome skiff]

this is the bot latency

uhhhhh

[proud mason]

Don't defer if you have already edited the message

I'm not sure but i think the method for editing was interaction.response.edit_message

After you do that, directly use interaction.followup.send

[slender abyss]

Nothing is working

However i try to respond to the interaction it says unknown interaction

So i thought if i defer the interaction and try sendnig the messgae like a normal mesg it would work

[proud mason]

Tried resetting the token?

[slender abyss]

Nope

Does that work?

[proud mason]

You you can't respond then defer wouldn't mostly work either

[slender abyss]

Im not responding

[proud mason]

It would clear up any extra instances you may be accidentally running

[slender abyss]

Im just editing like a normal message

[proud mason]

Hmm

[proud mason]

Try this thing ^

Edit as a response and then send a follow-up

[slender abyss]

If i would have been running two instances then my commands would reply twice wont they

[slender abyss]

Does not work it throws up error in editing as response only

[slender abyss]

See here

[proud mason]

There could be some code issue in that one (if the instance was of some previous code) that's why you aren't getting any double replies

But it could be attempting to send a response and discord might be picking it up

Idk tbh

[slender abyss]

I see

[proud mason]

What was the code when you were doing this

[slender abyss]

Lemme get my laptop

[proud mason]

But token reset is a harmless thing ngl

So it's fine to do it

[slender abyss]

this is my current code haven't tested it yet

im doing response in the last cuz even if it throws error it not gonna stop anything from running

the code before this was

await interaction.response.edit_message(view=self)
await interaction.channel.send(cont)

so as i put the reponse above channel.send(...) the line was not executed

[slender abyss]

i'll try it

[proud mason]

wait i think there is interaction.edit_original_message too
try that

[proud mason]

hmm
but do you send a followup after you defer?

man this whole interaction thing is a bit weird ngl

multiple way to do multiple stuff

[slender abyss]

no im just gonna defer it

and the button will get disabled in 5min due to timeout

[lime lichen]

anyone know how long slash commands take to add to guilds?

if it depends on the guild count, consider 1100

pls @ me idc

[slender abyss]

prolly 1h-2h

[tiny wagon]

what is lock in buttons

[tiny wagon]

tho in starting we were told 1h, but discord is speeding it up, so max 1 hr

[edgy dew]

Hi, i've used the old Discord package for python for a long time and i wanted to take a big step and use py-cord. I stumbled across the "selectors" and i tried making a role selector. Everything fine so far. I just wanted to know if its possible to deactivate the selector after a user chose a role.

[tiny wagon]

https://docs.pycord.dev/en/stable/api.html?highlight=selectmenu#discord.SelectMenu.disabled

set .disabled = True in callback

[edgy dew]

So i assume to use a 'self.disabled' or am i wrong?

[tiny wagon]

you need to send code for that

the thing b4 . must be a SelectMenu object

[edgy dew]

async def select_callback(self, select, interaction):
        await interaction.response.send_message(f"Perfect. You chose the role {select.values[0]}")

This is my callback.

For the selector i use a class:

class MyView(discord.ui.View):
  @discord.ui.select(...)

await ctx.send("Simplistic - Role Selector", view=helper.MyView())

[tiny wagon]

select.disabled = True
then you need to edit the message with new view as self

await interaction.response.edit_message(view=self)

[edgy dew]

Ah thank you so much ^^ It worked now

[tiny wagon]

👍

[proud mason]

set invisible=True while deferring if you do that

[slender abyss]

Totally forgot about that ty

[proud mason]

lol

i only came to know about it a while back

[slender abyss]

wait isn't it true by default?

[proud mason]

no idea

oh it is

hmm nvm then

[slender abyss]

lol

[slender abyss]

pog its still there

i can't even defer it

i think i should not give a response

[proud mason]

man

wait for someone else

or ask in discord support server

also what is your discord version btw

[slender abyss]

This is the whole error

[slender abyss]

how do i know that

it auto updates discord on start

[proud mason]

pip list

[proud mason]

oh

[slender abyss]

pycord version?

[proud mason]

yea

sry mb

[slender abyss]

2.0.1

[proud mason]

try 2.1.1

[slender abyss]

it has problems

[proud mason]

oh

[slender abyss]

with slash commands group

i tried it i get the same error there also

##1593

[proud mason]

hmm

[slender abyss]

20-25 people clicking the button at the same time

for some it works maximum get interaction fail

[rare ice]

Why is this happening with motor? And how do I fix it?

[soft girder]

But it give me error .Why?

If you can give example.I'll be glad

[cold hamlet]

Why is get_application_command so unreliable?

[slender abyss]

whats is the error?

[slender abyss]

how>

[slender abyss]

error?

[cold hamlet]

well
I can't get any sub commands
and I can't get any group commands

[slender abyss]

pycord version?

[cold hamlet]

- Python v3.10.5-final
- py-cord v2.1.1-final
- aiohttp v3.8.1
- system info: Windows 10 10.0.19044

[slender abyss]

i think pycord 2.1.1 has some issues with slash commands groups

##1593

[prisma flicker]

it's true

try 2.0.1

[cold hamlet]

ok one sec

[slender abyss]

i miss this command

[cold hamlet]

same issue

neither of the first two yields have a value

OH

I need to specify that the config command is a group via type=discord.SlashCommandGroup

That's whacky

[uncut skiff]

Anyone got any idea on how to get pycord or any python library to work with https://codecollab.io

Pip doesn't work

Nor does cloning the development version

[cyan quail]

perhaps there's a reason they don't want people installing packages

but you could potentially just write a python file to install with pip

[uncut skiff]

Hmm

Pip does run and install it

But it says no module named discord

It probably can't access the library

[sleek arch]

How can I get the user ID from a button click? I need it just to print to console at the moment.

[bronze vector]

interaction.user

[sleek arch]

I knew it was something with .user

[round rivet]

i had a stroke trying to tytpe this

send help

[bronze vector]

sometimes i have it too

[bronze vector]

you had it even here lmao

[round rivet]

interaction.user.id

[bronze vector]

see, we all have strokes sometime

[round rivet]

there only took 3 tries

[sleek arch]

Thankyou :D

[worn void]

How can I made it so with a / command it gives then 2 options for a value? e.g. transcript:True/False

[proud pagoda]

If you would like to have the true/false, then you can use the bool type in discord.Option

[worn void]

I tried messing with discord.Option and couldn't seem to get it to work, do you have any examples?

[proud pagoda]

So something like this:

async def some_command(ctx, choice: discord.Option(bool, "Your choice")):
    ...

[proud pagoda]

Yeah, there should be some in the guide and examples in the github repo

[worn void]

what is bool? the value name?

[proud pagoda]

No, its the type

[worn void]

oh wait yeah

[proud pagoda]

So you could use int for example so that it automatically converts to int and Discord will actually prevent people from entering a non-int on the ui side of things

[worn void]

ah

what are true false statements

[proud pagoda]

https://guide.pycord.dev/interactions/application-commands/slash-commands#options--option-types

[worn void]

i cant remember for some reason

[proud pagoda]

wdym?

[worn void]

Like True isnt a str its called something else

[proud pagoda]

bool

[worn void]

oh

that would be logical

also

this should work right?

                    for i in range(5,1,-1):
                        await ctx.respond(f"Ticket closing in {i}...")
                        time.sleep(1)
                    time.sleep(2)
                    await ctx.channel.delete()

[proud pagoda]

I would recommend using await asyncio.sleep() instead of time.sleep as time is thread blocking

But other than that it should work

[worn void]

kk

[worn void]

So it works then it counts until 2 then waits 2 seconds and deletes it

[proud pagoda]

Then do 5, 0

[cinder silo]

How to check who invited someone?

[sleek arch]

Is there anyway to use interaction to get the guild instead of ctx? ctx code: guild = ctx.message.guild

[round rivet]

uh yeah

interaction.guild

[sleek arch]

I couldn't find any of that on the documentation, thankyou

[worn void]

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

@sleek arch

[sleek arch]

Thankyou :)

[fervent cradle]

Hi, why i can not use global for get the channel?
....(self, ctx, channel: discord.TextChannel):
global channel
i need this for my modal because i want send to the channel what i select.

[hushed ledge]

One message removed from a suspended account.

[proud pagoda]

Just pass the channel into the _init_ in the modal

So something like this:

class MyModal(Modal):
  def __init__(self, channel):
    super().__init__(...)
    self.channel = channel
  
  async def callback(self, interaction):
    ...

[proud pagoda]

You could potentially store the person who first clicked the button

Set it to None initally, and then on button clikc, check if person is None and then update the person

[prisma flicker]

interaction_check gets called when the button is clicked, you can simply check if someone already clicked it (perhaps with a mutex) and only process it if they're the first person

[fervent cradle]

but he knows not the channel or? i must pass the channel from the slash command

[unreal shoal]

how do i make it so only the admins can see the command

guild settings > integrations

[fervent cradle]

can anyone helps me?
i mean i have a slash command to select a channel, then open's a modal and when i click to confirm when send this in the channel whats i select.

[cyan quail]

did you subclass the modal

[fervent cradle]

no because i can not add the channel i have tried with global but this not works

[cyan quail]

you can just add an argument to the modal and pass it in, don't use global

well in any case, show how you've implemented it currently

[fervent cradle]

    @slash_command(description="test")
    async def test(self, ctx, channel: discord.TextChannel):
        modal = modal(title="Modal Test")
        await ctx.send_modal(modal)

class modal(discord.ui.Modal):
    def __init__(self, channel, *args, **kwargs):
        super().__init__(channel, *args, **kwargs)
        self.channel = channel

        self.add_item(discord.ui.InputText(label="sass", placeholder="asas"))

    async def callback(self, interaction: discord.Interaction):
         await self.channel.send(f"bla")

[cyan quail]

well you got it, but you never passed channel into your modal

and you should call them different things

like call the class Modal

then do modal = Modal(channel, title="...")

oh also take channel out of super().__init__()

[fervent cradle]

yes that's why yes global

[fervent cradle]

okay

[cyan quail]

but you don't need global...

[rare ice]

Nvm it was a code error

[fervent cradle]

so without channel in the super class and now its that works ?

[cyan quail]

it should

[fervent cradle]

then come this error
discord.errors.ApplicationCommandInvokeError: Application Command raised an exception: TypeError: Modal.__init__() missing 1 required positional argument: 'channel'

[cyan quail]

i just said

ok look

you've defined your modal like this py class Modal(discord.ui.Modal): def __init__(self, channel, *args, **kwargs):meaning the first argument should be channel, and then anything else

but you're doing py modal = Modal(title="Modal Test")see the problem?

[fervent cradle]

mhm i use now channel?

modal = Modal(channel, title="Modal Test")

[cyan quail]

yes

[fervent cradle]

oh man.. discord.errors.ApplicationCommandInvokeError: Application Command raised an exception: AttributeError: 'TextChannel' object has no attribute 'row'

[cyan quail]

show your new code

oh right

remove *args, from both init

[fervent cradle]

okay i have it

[fervent cradle]

no coming same error

[cyan quail]

can you show your new code

[fervent cradle]

    @slash_command(description="test")
    async def test(self, ctx, channel: discord.TextChannel):
        modal = Modal(channel, title="Modal Test")
        await ctx.send_modal(modal)

class Modal(discord.ui.Modal):
    def __init__(self, channel, **kwargs):
        super().__init__(channel, **kwargs)
        self.channel = channel

        self.add_item(discord.ui.InputText(label="sass", placeholder="asas"))

    async def callback(self, interaction: discord.Interaction):
         await self.channelchannel.send(f"bla")

btw when i remove **kwargs then coming a new error

[cyan quail]

don't remove it

[fervent cradle]

okay

[cyan quail]

just checking, you didn't import Modal did you

[fervent cradle]

No why?

[cyan quail]

wait

.

[cyan quail]

you missed this

[fervent cradle]

ohh

[fervent cradle]

yep its works thanks

[cyan quail]

all good

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.

[full basin]

Do you have a proper IDE? Any decent IDE shows indentation errors.

[hearty mauve]

I use replit cuz there isn't any other free hosting and i dont got money

[cyan quail]

eh... arguably none of them are, even cheap 1-2$/month hosts are significantly better just because they operate in a very different way from free services

but if someone has to use a free service even when we advise not to, we can't really stop them

[hearty mauve]

I litterally cant spend money, im moving to a new house, and i dont have money, luxxy is constantly getting doxxed and railway is sketchy

Replit is fine

[full basin]

Railway is way better than replit

[hearty mauve]

But its sketchy

[full basin]

It's not

[hearty mauve]

It is so

[cyan quail]

please avoid... arguing about free hosts here, take it to #general

[hearty mauve]

Some guy tried to make me use his code and get money off of me

With railway

Replit is fine

How can I get a list of all slash commands (my bot has)

I'm looking to get the name of the slash command only

[rare ice]

bot.application_commands is a list of application commands, so you can iterate through it and check command.name iirc (command being the application command name).

[worldly schooner]

how can I add on_application_command_error to my cog file where I put all the event listeners (or cog.listeners)? I did it already but its not handling the errors:

@commands.Cog.listener()
async def on_application_command_error(self, ctx: discord.ApplicationContext, error):
        if isinstance(error, commands.CommandError):
            print(error)
            await ctx.message.add_reaction(':x:')
        if isinstance(error, KeyError):
            print(error)
            await ctx.message.add_reaction(':x:')

[proud pagoda]

Are you sure the cog is loading?

And also is the error of type CommandError or KeyError?

[worldly schooner]

mainly

[worldly schooner]

yes because all the other event listeners are working properly

as on_message, on_member_join

[proud pagoda]

Add a print(error) outside of the if statements

[worldly schooner]

ok lemme try

nothing

[full basin]

on_application_command_error doesnt handle prefixed commands errors

on_command_error does

[proud pagoda]

yeah

[worldly schooner]

changed to on_command_error, working now

thanks everyone for the help

[hushed ledge]

One message removed from a suspended account.

[bleak cloud]

that's because await member.send("Test") does not return a bool (True or False)
you should use try: and except:

[tranquil coyote]

Please help me in my post

[fervent cradle]

yea its pretty easy

you can either deploy via railway cli, or upload your code to a private repository in your github and deploy the repo in railway

i am sure the docs must have covered it all

Does pycord support the HTTP thing where a bot can have no status?

[slender abyss]

it not coming online and its full of that error

i deploying using private git repo still

[fervent cradle]

recheck your imports something is wrong there

[rugged lantern]

yes

[fervent cradle]

and how?

[amber shale]

how to have timestamp like this in embed footer

[full basin]

embed.timestamp = datetime.datetime.utcnow()

[royal spindle]

how to add slash command permission for an user id?

[bleak cloud]

is it not possible to get contents of automod filters yet?

[cyan quail]

can only do it from guild settings > integrations

[cyan quail]

https://docs.pycord.dev/en/stable/api.html#discord.Guild.fetch_auto_moderation_rule

or fetch_auto_moderation_rules if you want all rules

not sure if the feature is 100% complete yet, but it should work well enough

[bleak cloud]

i know there’s AutoModRule object, but it seems to have no attribute for fetching the actual words of the filters

https://docs.pycord.dev/en/stable/api.html#discord.AutoModRule

[cyan quail]

trigger_metadata i think

the object doesn't appear to be fully implemented, but does it return anything?

[sharp smelt]

Why do I get this when I start my bot? It looks like it happens after the on_ready event. The bot still works

[bleak cloud]

it returned nothing, sadly
probly it’s not finished

[cyan quail]

what version

[sharp smelt]

Whatever the newest is. I installed it last night

2.1.1

[cyan quail]

ohok

?tag missing_access

[obtuse junco]

If you get a Missing Access (50001) error, you probably forgot to add the applications.commands scope.

To fix that, just replace YOUR_BOT_ID with your bot id and visit this link: https://discord.com/oauth2/authorize?client_id=YOUR_BOT_ID&scope=applications.commands

[cyan quail]

or you specified a guild_id you don't have access to

[sharp smelt]

ty

[cyan quail]

from the looks of it, it is fully implemented but not documented
https://github.com/Pycord-Development/pycord/blob/v2.1.1/discord/automod.py
if it's not returning anything, chances are discord isn't sending you the info

there's also the event https://docs.pycord.dev/en/master/api.html#discord.on_auto_moderation_action_execution if you want to see if it's received through there

[bleak cloud]

i managed to get the data!
it was just that the data i was trying to fetch was a discord-made one, so there was nothing inside the data
sorry, and thanks for the help!

[cyan quail]

all good

[amber shale]

thanks

[fervent cradle]

Hey, why i can not edit my label from the button?
global no
@discord.ui.button(label=no"
global no
no = f"({nein_counter})"

NameError: name 'no' is not defined
btw nein_counter = in json

[fervent cradle]

its possible to add cooldown to buttons?

[undone smelt]

Do we know why discord.User.display_name throws a type error in pylance? It's weird because they're typed correctly in the source

[full basin]

Just access the label attribute

Cause whatever youre doing there makes no sense

[full basin]

Uhh, handmade. Use interaction_check and check if the user is stored in X thing and just reply and return False otherwise True

[fervent cradle]

yeah but how?
i try label.edit("..") but i think thats incorrect

[nocturne canopy]

what exactly is ctx:commands.Context used for? does it have to go in every command, or only those with arguments?

[full basin]

Buttons callback receive Button which references to the Button itself

And the button object has a label attribute

[fervent cradle]

ohh okay

[full basin]

I'm sure you can figure out what to do with that

[full basin]

Goes in all commands n

All commands receive a context.

[fervent cradle]

so button.label()

?

[full basin]

It is what the word says, the command context

[full basin]

Its not a function

[fervent cradle]

Oh a function

[full basin]

I said its not

[fervent cradle]

ok ty

can someone help me with this?
``` await interaction.author.send(embed=discord.Embed(title="Key Generated",description=f"Your Key: {key}",colour=0x42F56C))

like if u clicked the button you will receive a dm

nvm i replaced author with user

[calm plume]

this question probably has been asked but

can i respond to a slash command without sending any message?

[silver moat]

you can send a modal

[calm plume]

but i don't want to

i just wanna do something without sending a message so discord doesn't say

"Interaction Failed"

[silver moat]

why can't the response be ephemeral?

[calm plume]

ephemeral isn't it hidden?

bc i don't want to send a message even if its hidden

[silver moat]

what does your command even do

[umbral fox]

i keep getting this error "ctx is a required argument that is missing.", when i use this command. anything i could do about this ? here is the command code.

[calm plume]

it just a error handler

[silver moat]

it's it better to say "An error has occurred"?

[calm plume]

why don't u do ctx: discord.ApplicationContext

[dry echo]

because you are outside of a class.... learn python thanks

[calm plume]

well yes but i don't want it to send a message

and instead do something else

[silver moat]

like what?

[calm plume]

like send a message on a other website (using a other api)

[silver moat]

it's still good for the end-user to display a success or fail

[calm plume]

ik but can i pls just have the code to say to discord not to popup the

Interaction Failed

[umbral fox]

i just wanted to create some small projects along side with learning python, but thanks

[silver moat]

you can delay it with defer

or respond and delete the response

[calm plume]

i could do that but it will be kinda weird

to see a message just pop up and dissapear

[silver moat]

exactly

[dry echo]

.invoke()

[calm plume]

?

wait u mean

[dry echo]

ctx.invoke()

[calm plume]

ctx.invoke

[dry echo]

then it doesnt pop up

[calm plume]

ok let me test it

wait it requires a command argument

and im on a bot.event

not bot.command

[silver moat]

wut

[dry echo]

lemme see

[calm plume]

yeh it says

TypeError: invoke() missing 1 required positional argument: 'command'

[dry echo]

show the code....

[silver moat]

what even is the point of invoke

[calm plume]

@bot.event
async def on_application_command_error(ctx: discord.ApplicationContext, error: discord.DiscordException):
    await ctx.invoke()
    if isinstance(error, commands.CommandOnCooldown):
         # Other API Related Stuff Unesscarry to Discord
    else:
        raise error

[proud pagoda]

Why are you invoking the command on error?

[calm plume]

so i don't get a Failed Interaction by discord

[silver moat]

I still don't understand why you can't respond with a message

[proud pagoda]

Just use ctx.respond

[calm plume]

but i don't want to respond to a message, i wanna use lets say a other api to respond

oh wait

[silver moat]

what do you mean another api to respond

[calm plume]

nvm i get what u meant

[silver moat]

you should still send a message eventually to inform the end-user of the result of their command

[calm plume]

like how can i say this

when the end user executes the command

i wanna end the command and not output anything

[umbral fox]

still getting the error, but thanks

[silver moat]

that sounds absurd

[calm plume]

like this discord.py code

[silver moat]

even saying something like "Success!"

[calm plume]

try:
    await inter.send()
except disnake.errors.HTTPException:
    pass  # We know this isn't valid but that's fine

[silver moat]

would work

[sleek arch]

I have my bot set up to create a new channel with guild.create_text_channel("Name")How can I make it create a private channel, one that I can add users or roles to have permissions with

[calm plume]

u use overwrites i think

[dry echo]

[calm plume]

overwrites is basically the permissions

[sleek arch]

I did I cant find it

[sleek arch]

ahh right okay. Thankyou for the help

[calm plume]

np

[dry echo]

https://docs.pycord.dev/en/stable/api.html?highlight=create#discord.Guild.create_text_channel

[sleek arch]

Thankyou as well

[calm plume]

anyways

uhh The application did not respond can this tho be disabled without sending a new message

[umbral fox]

thanks

[calm plume]

np, it really doesn't fix the problem

but i think it adds the menus if ur using pycharm

so u can inspect the functions without having to look the docs

or ask anything

[umbral fox]

yeah, i fixed the problem in another way

[calm plume]

well okay

but its reccomended to use this instead of plain ctx

or for me at least

[iron halo]

i added a cooldown to 1 command like this
@discord.ext.commands.cooldown(1, 1, discord.ext.commands.BucketType.user)
and it worked fine
but now i added it to other commands and it tells me
AttributeError: module 'discord' has no attribute 'ext'

and i am confused why it has only decided now that theres no ext

[cyan quail]

did you define a variable or function called discord

[iron halo]

no

the only time i have discord is import discord

[cyan quail]

can you show the full file

[iron halo]

uhhh its 3500 lines

[cyan quail]

bruh

the only way that would happen is if you overrode discord somewhere

[iron halo]

ill try go back to when it worked and try again

maybe i just copied and pasted wrong

yea i went back to it only being on 1 command and it works fine

thats so weird

[wooden zenith]

does anyone have any type of example of where when u need a password for a command to work because i have seen my friend use a code where the password is needed for the command to execute if anyone has any info on something like this please let me know

[undone smelt]

Does anyone have a raffle command I could take a peek at? 👀

[lime lichen]

code:

member = await ctx.guild.get_member(user.id)

error:

Application Command raised an exception: TypeError: object Member can't be used in 'await' expression

[tulip bobcat]

get_member is not a coroutine and must therefore not be awaited
https://docs.pycord.dev/en/stable/api.html?highlight=get_member#discord.Guild.get_member

the error occurs after the member was found, therefore trying to await the object Member that was retrieved by the get_member method

[lime lichen]

@tulip bobcat thanks, mixed up fetch_member and get_member methods

[calm plume]

even says the exception

[lime lichen]

thank you, i already figured it out

[calm plume]

is it possible to add a sort of custom variable that i can write to the function of a command and access it later by like using ctx?

[naive remnant]

How can I make only members with a specific role that can access a command

[quick temple]

I have an ApplicationCommand object (command from my bot), how can I get a list of all the inputs it takes from the user

[dry echo]

when i use task.loop() and pass a time(hour=8, minute=15) object, does it loop through the task until the minute is over or only once?

[cyan quail]

uhhhh can you show the actual decorator you used, somewhat confused by your wording

[cyan quail]

command.options

[night warren]

'TicketingButton' object has no attribute '_underlying' hm what

[cyan quail]

if you mean showing/hiding, you have to use guild settings > integrations

[cyan quail]

looks like you passed an incorrect object type somewhere, what's the related code?

[naive remnant]

Not this

[cyan quail]

in that case, see checks such as https://docs.pycord.dev/en/master/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.has_role

[dry echo]

@tasks.loop(time=time(hour=8, minute=15))

[night warren]

class TicketingButton(discord.ui.Button):
    def __init__(self, label):
        super().__init__(
            label="Report Player" if label is True else "Open a Ticket",
            style=discord.ButtonStyle.red,
            custom_id="report" if label is True else "ticket",
        )

    async def callback(self, interaction: discord.Interaction):
        bot = variables.bot
        embed = await interaction.response.send_modal(ReportingModal()) if self.label is True else await interaction.response.send_modal(TicketingModal())
        cat = bot.get_channel(1012271308765138954)
        overwrite = discord.PermissionOverwrite(send_messages=True, read_messages=True, read_message_history=True)
        category_overwrites = cat.overwrites```
how do I add arguments to the callback func? I can't add things in the __init__ as that would mess up the parameters I think

[cyan quail]

it repeats every day at 8:15 AM, based on your bot's OS time

[cyan quail]

no, you do add stuff in the init

you can't mess with the callback

[dry echo]

yeah but when the function inside is finished, does it repeat itself inside that 8:15th minute?

[cyan quail]

why would it repeat itself

[cyan quail]

just to clarify, you can add any custom arguments you want in def __init__, but you shouldn't add them to super().__init__ unless they would be allowed in the original object

[night warren]

class TicketingButton(discord.ui.Button):
    def __init__(self, label, bot):
        self.label = label
        self.bot = bot
        super().__init__(
            label="Report Player" if label is True else "Open a Ticket",
            style=discord.ButtonStyle.red,
            custom_id="report" if label is True else "ticket",
        )

    async def callback(self, interaction: discord.Interaction):
        embed = await interaction.response.send_modal(ReportingModal()) if self.label is True else await interaction.response.send_modal(TicketingModal())
        cat = self.bot.get_channel(1012271308765138954)
        overwrite = discord.PermissionOverwrite(send_messages=True, read_messages=True, read_message_history=True)
        category_overwrites = cat.overwrites
        category_overwrites[interaction.user] = overwrite
        tn = await funcs.how_many_tickets() + 1
        cursor = await variables.db_connection.cursor()
        new_chan = await cat.create_text_channel(f'{"Reporting" if self.label is True else "Ticket"}-{tn}', overwrites=category_overwrites)
        await cursor.execute(
            "INSERT INTO Ticketing (TicketID, CreatorID, CreatedAt, ChanID, ClosedAt) VALUES (?, ?, ?, ?, null)",
            (tn, interaction.user.id, time.time(), new_chan.id))
        await variables.db_connection.commit()
        await interaction.response.send_message(f"You can find your channel at <#{new_chan.id}>")
        await new_chan.send(embed=embed)```

[cyan quail]

yeah that would work

though tbf you generally don't even need to do bot because you can get it from interaction.client

[night warren]

                            guild_ids=[variables.guild_id])  # Create a slash command for the supplied guilds.
    @discord.default_permissions(
        manage_messages=True
    )
    async def postticket(self, ctx):
        view = discord.ui.View(timeout=None)
        view.add_item(TicketingButton(label=True, bot=self.bot))
        view.add_item(TicketingButton(label=False, bot=self.bot))
        chan = self.bot.get_channel(1014263404992675850)
        embed=await funcs.custom_embed("Welcome", "Please select one of the following options")
        await chan.send(embed=embed, view=view)
        await ctx.respond("Done", ephemeral=True)```

[cyan quail]

since you made the arguments positional, you just need TicketingButton(True, self.bot)

[night warren]

can you move the super init above self.label

(also considering the logic you used in super, you should completely remove self.label = ... anyway

[night warren]

it works tysm

[meager heron]

Is there an easy way to set a recurring task to run on a specific day of the month? (i.e. "run on the 1st of the month at midnight")

I know I can set the next run datetime, but I wanted to make sure there isn't a more trivial method first

[cunning stag]

I need help, I installed pycord and I want to delete it for a while and when I type pip uninstall py-cord it is deleted but I can't start the regular discord.py bot

I thought it was down to the bot script itself, but not a single bot is working, but all of them were working

[proud pagoda]

Try typing pip install discord.py

[cunning stag]

I tried, but then some commands work for me and some don't

[silver moat]

type pip freeze and send output

[proud pagoda]

Are you using app commands?

I believe dpy calls them something different so you may have issues using them

[cyan quail]

this isn't built in no

i guess you could have it run every day

and then check the current date

[pallid token]

I've realized that now that I've implemented a select dropdown, the bot takes much much longer to shut down. Is this normal?

Event loop seems to only close sometimes.

[cunning stag]

nope

[cunning stag]

check dm

@silver moat 😦 😂

[rare ice]

?tag codeblock

[obtuse junco]

Please put your code in a code block:

That makes reading code in Discord a lot easier:

[fervent cradle]

i realised i put role as interaction user id

One message removed from a suspended account.

[full basin]

Just send it here

[full basin]

Why dont you use the callback? Don't think its worth overriding it?

[hushed ledge]

One message removed from a suspended account.

[full basin]

Make some attribute and check it before actually running the callback?

[bright shard]

I have a command that essentially stops if 'lose' becomes false, I made a button that pops up along w the embed when you start the command

my question is how could I change the value of lose via the button?

[hushed ledge]

One message removed from a suspended account.

[bright shard]

class Skip(discord.ui.View):
    def __init__(self):
        super().__init__(timeout=None)

    @discord.ui.button(label='Skip', style=discord.ButtonStyle.primary)
    async def skip(self, button, interaction):
        print('make lost true')```

this is my buttons callback and when i just try and lose = true in the callback nothing happens

[full basin]

Assuming youre subclassing view, just create some class attribute on init like self.pressed = False
Then just switch it when callback and check that on interaction_check

[full basin]

Errors? Expected output? Whats lose = true?

[bright shard]

no errors

basically

the variable 'lose' is false in the command and when it becomes true, the command stops i currently have it so when you send a message in chat lose becomes true

but i want to make it so when you press the button lose becomes true

nothing happens when i just put lose = true in the callback though

[hushed ledge]

One message removed from a suspended account.

[full basin]

Because youre just setting a variable

Youre not responding

[full basin]

Override interaction_check and just

if self.pressed:
   return False

return True```

[hushed ledge]

One message removed from a suspended account.

[full basin]

I said override interaction_check

[hushed ledge]

One message removed from a suspended account.

[full basin]

interaction_check is a method, a function...

async def interaction_check(self):
  if self.pressed ...

@discord.ui.button(...)
async def ...```

I've realized that now that I've implemented a select dropdown, the bot takes much much longer to shut down.
Event loop seems to only close sometimes. Otherwise it just sits there at closing forever. Is this normal?

[worn void]

I had an error I got and cant figure it out:

nevermind 💀

[fervent cradle]

Hi anyone have any idea whats going on with discrod api, my bot is getting temp ban too frequently and the bot is just shutting down even when the code is still running, It has been running for more than an year now never faced this and the bans were never frequent

No updates to the code have been done recently

[surreal glade]

What are you hosting it on?

also @lilac turret do u know how to make a command with optional arguments

[silver moat]

text command or slash command?

[surreal glade]

text

[lilac turret]

I think you use Optional in the type annotation or set the default value to None

[surreal glade]

how do i give it different functions based on what u put

this is what i want to do

[silver moat]

assign a default value like

async def cool_command(ctx, optional_arg = "No way!"):
  pass

[surreal glade]

%heat add/set usr amt

thats what i want to do

add or set

[lilac turret]

I don't think you can do that because of how Python treats default parameters before non-default parameters

Actually wait

I'm stupid sorry

Just check if the first argument is add or set, and if it's not then raise an exception

[surreal glade]

smarter than me

[surreal glade]

alr ill try that

[lilac turret]

I'm surprised you didn't think about that

[surreal glade]

im surprised i didnt either

ooh i can use elifs, my favorite

[surreal glade]

ykw i dont know how to do that actualyl

[lilac turret]

What

[silver moat]

That reminds me. I should use case switches more.

[surreal glade]

hey man cut me some slack havent worked with python in like a week

[surreal glade]

u should

very much so

[lilac turret]

It's like one of the simplest languages to work with

[surreal glade]

well yes

but i have been doing cpp like stuff with arduinos and ultrasound measurement systems

for a while

[lilac turret]

Ah I see

[silver moat]

ok #general ty

[lilac turret]

No and goodbye

[silver moat]

bye and see you!
Make sure to use #969574202413838426 for help!

[surreal glade]

anyways so remind me how to check

[lilac turret]

if thing == "other value" or thing == "another value":

Pretty straightforward

[surreal glade]

well yes

but how

[worn void]

How can I make it so when I restart my bot, the current buttons it has posted in channels still work and dont just say "interaction has not responded"

[lilac turret]

Wdym?

[errant crane]

Here's the persistent example.

[silver moat]

@worn void ^

[worn void]

ty

[surreal glade]

@bot.command()
async def heat(add, set, usr: discord.Member, val, ctx):
  if #idk what to put here

[worn void]

what are you trying to do?

[surreal glade]

i would know how with normal base python but this is pycord

[lilac turret]

Sorry I didn't explain well what I meant

[worn void]

Its the same thing

[worn void]

^

[lilac turret]

Actually on second thought why not use subcommands?

[surreal glade]

what is a subcommand

actually ik what it is

but how do u do it with like

text cmds

wait ik how

[silver moat]

congrats

[signal sandal]

any idea why i cannot get audio off of pycord

bot just will not play audio

even if lavalink says it is

[lilac turret]

Any more information? Saying "guys this isn't working" is not helpful

[fervent cradle]

till now it has been on replit

[fierce elm]

where is the SlashCommandGroup decorator

[tiny wagon]

how to invoke a slash subcommand?
works fine on one word slash commands
await ctx.invoke(self.bot.get_application_command('auction info'))

[night warren]

class TicketingModal(discord.ui.Modal):
    def __init__(self, *args, **kwargs) -> None:
        super().__init__(*args, **kwargs)
        self.add_item(discord.ui.InputText(label="Reason", style=discord.InputTextStyle.long))

    async def callback(self, interaction: discord.Interaction):
        await self.wait()
        embed = await funcs.custom_embed("Ticket", "A ticket has been opened")
        embed.add_field(name="Reason", value=self.children[0].value)
        return embed```

why won't the code wait for the modal to be completed by the user and why is embed of type interaction?

[young bone]

Stay in one channel?

[calm plume]

question

quite quick one

does @commands.has_permissions also know when u have the permissions when you are administrator

[young bone]

Yes

?

[calm plume]

so if i have lets say Admin Permissions

and the Command needs Kick, Ban Member Enabled, Admin Should bypass it

[young bone]

With Admin you have any permissions

You also can delete the server

[calm plume]

yeh ik, i was just making sure

bc when i used an if elif and else

i had to do

if (ctx.author.guild_permissions.kick_members or ctx.author.guild_permissions.ban_members) or ctx.author.guild_permissions.admin

thx a lot tho @young bone

also before u go one other question

is it possible if i can get the required permissions of a command without having to specify them in lets say a Database or json file

[dry echo]

how can i access the callback without using decorator?

class SelectToDoItem(discord.ui.View):
    def __init__(self, bot, entries):
        super().__init__(timeout=None)
        self.entries = entries
        self.select_options = []
        
        for entry in entries:
            self.select_options.append(discord.SelectOption(label=entry[2], value=entry[1], description=entry[3]))
        
        self.add_item(discord.ui.Select(options=self.select_options, placeholder="test", custom_id="select_todo"))
    

    async def select_callback(self, select, interaction):
      ...

[tulip bobcat]

you can manually set the callback of an item
item.callback = your_callback

[dry echo]

like this?

        self.children[0].callback = self.callback
    
    # the function called when the user is done selecting options
    async def callback(self, select, interaction):
        ...

[tulip bobcat]

looks good

[dry echo]

TypeError: SelectToDoItem.callback() missing 1 required positional argument: 'interaction'

[tulip bobcat]

in this case, the method should only use self and interaction as parameters
https://docs.pycord.dev/en/stable/api.html?highlight=select#discord.ui.Select.callback

[dry echo]

oh okay, and how do i get the selected value?

nvm i got it self.children[0].values[0]

[tulip bobcat]

interaction.data["values"]

[calm plume]

nvm figured it out

but one question and thats for the error handling

i wanna stop discord from Saying "Application did not Respond" bc i try to send a dm on my Error Handling

and the command kinda keeps going, even with the error

[tulip bobcat]

use on_application_error to handle the error

[calm plume]

yeh i used it

but lets say i execute a command

and the error gets thrown yeh?

the bot dms me for the error, like normal

but the command just doesn't stop that i executed and then says after 3 seconds "application did not respond"

[tulip bobcat]

the command stops, but you never responded to the command, that's why it fails

instead of sending a dm, you could respond to the command

[calm plume]

well yes, but i wanna send a dm and stuff

i would like it to respond by dm

[tulip bobcat]

is it necessary to respond via dm? or do you just don’t want the error to show úp in the server?

[calm plume]

if possible even turn of the application did not respond completely

[calm plume]

it is necessary

as i will make it configurable

[tulip bobcat]

I think it's a discord thing, not pycord and therefore not possible

[calm plume]

there were tricks on other libraries tho that disabled it

so py-cord should have one trick as well

[tulip bobcat]

oh, in this case I just don’t know about it

[calm plume]

oh ok

well thx at least for trying to help

[tulip bobcat]

or send a dummy response

[calm plume]

🤔 Hmmmm i might go back to discord.py

ik its a fork

but bc right there were tricks i could use to make discord stop saying "application did not respond"

[amber shale]

how to dm a member?
use case - want to dm him when a guild has unbanned him

[amber shale]

what was that trick?

[calm plume]

something like this

try:
   ctx.reply()
except HTTPException:
   pass

basically stopping discord

also what does ctx.response.pong do?

like i see docs

and says Pongs the ping interaction.

[amber shale]

oh

i use ctx.defer if it is taking long time

no idea about this

[calm plume]

ok

Is it possible if i can contact the Core Developer since they know a lot more bc they are a part of the library

[amber shale]

dont know shoud ask mod

then move on to that

how to give options to select from?

in slash command

[full basin]

choices kwarg

It takes a list

[amber shale]

can u give me a example 🙂

[full basin]

async def command(ctx, food: discord.Option(str, "Choose your favorite food", choices=["hotdogs", "apples", "banana"])

[amber shale]

oh

lets me try it thanks for helping me

[coral kindle]

???

[grizzled sentinel]

Fixed here
https://github.com/Pycord-Development/pycord/pull/1594

[grizzled sentinel]

can you show your code

[coral kindle]

class View1(discord.ui.View):

[grizzled sentinel]

the error seems to be talking about the wrong thing O.o
Where do you define member?
channel = discord.utils.get(member.guild.text_channels, name=f"{interaction.user.name}-ticket")

[coral kindle]

i didnt

[grizzled sentinel]

does restarting the bot help?

[grizzled sentinel]

I think you could replace member with interaction

I think all you need to do is upgrade to this PR

https://github.com/Pycord-Development/pycord/pull/1594

what version are you on now?

You should upgrade right away to the above pull (or at least 2.0.1).
2.0.0 has a major security vulnerability. Ability to crash your bot by just running a command or something

👍

Groups have been having a lot of issues.
\https://github.com/Pycord-Development/pycord/pull/1605
This is a new version that fixxes some things with cogs.
What are the problems you run into with newer versions?

pip install -U git+https://github.com/Pycord-Development/pycord/pull/1605 iirc

pip install -U git+https://github.com/Pycord-Development/pycord try this

Sorry im not sure about this. You should create a thread and someone with a bit more knolage of the issue might be able to help.

[proud mason]

is it possible to edit a message without using channel.fetch_message ?

i want to avoid that api call

also does fetch_message return the view too ?

[cyan quail]

you can use channel.get_partial_message https://docs.pycord.dev/en/master/api.html#discord.TextChannel.get_partial_message

[proud mason]

cool
but what about view

[cyan quail]

it returns a list of components in message.components, but you can get a useable view from a message using discord.ui.View.from_message
https://docs.pycord.dev/en/master/api.html#discord.ui.View.from_message

[proud mason]

ohh ic ic

[dry echo]

when i use this edit code i get interaction has failed, because no response, how can i change that?

await interaction.message.edit(embed=embed)

[proud mason]

i think ill use fetch message as i need the view

[cyan quail]

interaction.response.edit_message

[dry echo]

why so complicated

[cyan quail]

not really, that's an interaction response

[proud mason]

general question
do you like the current interaction setup? where you have multiple ways of doing multiple stuff? especially edit message 💀

[cyan quail]

well it kinda has to be like that

[proud mason]

there is interaction.edit_original_message too 💀

[cyan quail]

responding to an interaction is different from regular sends/edits

[proud mason]

true

but it becomes a bit confusing

[cyan quail]

we can lay it out
interaction.message.edit - Regular message edit, only works if message is cached / interaction.message isn't None
interaction.edit_original_message - Same as above, but more reliable since it can edit directly
interaction.response.edit_message - Responds to an interaction with an edit, only used once

in general, all methods under interaction.response can only be used once per interaction

[solemn spire]

can I get users by discriminator?

[fervent cradle]

can someone help me?

[white wadi]

hi guys i wanna make a sqlite database for my bot, should i save user ids as int or string?

[prisma flicker]

send the code

[prisma flicker]

BigInteger

[fervent cradle]

I had discord.py installed

[fervent cradle]

How can I use a converter not in a function definition?
If I have an object, how do I convert it

[prisma flicker]

Can you be more specific?

[amber shale]

how to make buttonrole?

can i get some basic idea how that work?

what happens when bot restarts..

[fervent cradle]

If I have an object that I want to convert, rather than do x: Converter,
How do I just do something like
y = Converter(x)

[wet coral]

I think it depends on the object/converter

[prisma flicker]

I'm actually not familiar with Converter, and was wondering what kinds of objects you're trying to convert?

[fervent cradle]

For example Member

Convert a integer into a member using a converter, but not having it in the command definition

[prisma flicker]

I would use fetch_member or get_member or discord.utils.get(guild.members,id=id)

[wet coral]

yep that's the right way to do it outside a function definition.
I think I read somewhere that the member converter and others only work in the definition because they have to be specifically written to be able to do this.

[fervent cradle]

@bot.slash_command(name='embed', description='Build an embed...')

        await ctx.send_modal(modal)
    view = View()
    be_button.callback = be_callback
    view.add_item(be_button)
    
    await ctx.respond("thinkin' about an embed?", view=view)

i have defined my modal somewhere so not to worry about that, but this keeps giving me an interaction responded error, how do i fix it

[prisma flicker]

what do you mean "interaction responded error"

[fervent cradle]

do you know how i can fix this? i am unable to understand i changed, ctx.respond to ctx.send and that didnt work either

[prisma flicker]

is this when you run /embed, click the Build button, or submit the modal?

[fervent cradle]

this happens when i click the build button

[wet coral]

try to replace await ctx.send_modal(modal) with await interaction.send_modal(modal)

[prisma flicker]

I was going to see what I do in my code but that sounds like it should work

[cyan quail]

interaction.response.send_modal

[prisma flicker]

^ yeah I think that's what I do actually

i always used it

[cyan quail]

i mean we have newer versions you can use

which

[cyan quail]

well we're currently on 2.1.1

[half olive]

would it affect my work?

[cyan quail]

depends give it a try

do you use slash command groups?

nah

[cyan quail]

go for it then

don't think there are any other significant bugs

damn that worked

thanks

[cyan quail]

all good

[dim flicker]

Why does python write to me when starting the bot instead of starting it

c:\Users\niksy\Desktop\Caramel\bot.py"
Python 

[young bone]

you can stay with commands.Bot

[proud pagoda]

just run python path/to/bot.py

[proud pagoda]

Try it without the 3 at the end of python

[proud pagoda]

Try using f5 to run it

Since your using vs code

[dim flicker]

I started it via debug, but I can't do it this way

[severe storm]

how can i play a mp3 file in a vc?

[worn void]

How can I made mandatory fields and optional fields in a slash command?

[simple canopy]

there is required kwarg in discord.Option

its True by default iirc

https://docs.pycord.dev/en/stable/api.html?highlight=discord option#discord.Option.required

[quick moon]

When I switched to pycord, I uninstalled later and went back to discord.py. I made a new bot and switched back to pycord with the correct code from using a slash command example from the guide. Although, the bot isn't turning on and I'm not sure why. If I switched back to discord.py, it would turn on. Does anyone know why? I already tried looking for answers

[simple canopy]

is there any errors?

[quick moon]

There is, but the file crashes before I can even check the error.

[simple canopy]

are you on windows?

[quick moon]

Mhm

[simple canopy]

python3 file_name.py
pause

use this script with .bat file

place it in same directory with your bot main file

[worn void]

You have to uninstall discord.py, then make sure you imported py-cord I believe

Its weird

[simple canopy]

its not, because pycord uses same namespace as dpy

[worn void]

I mean in that context its weird set of steps to install because of that

[simple canopy]

yeah

[worn void]

ty btw

[simple canopy]

👍🏻

[worn void]

So would this work?

@client.slash_command(guild_ids=g, name="bug", description='Reports a bug to the Bot Developer(s).')
async def bug(ctx, bug, image : Option(str, "Any proof of this bug.", required = False, default = ''):

[simple canopy]

https://tryitands.ee

[worn void]

FUCK

screw you

[simple canopy]

[worn void]

lmfao, was wondering if i did it correct hoping youd respond before I can restart my bot

[simple canopy]

i think you did, but if you tried - you would see

[worn void]

and the answer was no

It's discord.Option

[simple canopy]

yes it is

[worn void]

    async def bug(ctx, bug, image : discord.Option(str, "Any proof of this bug.", required = False, default = ''):
                                                                                                                 ^
SyntaxError: invalid syntax

what, how

oh nvm, im stupid

[simple canopy]

you didn't close the bracket

[worn void]

doesnt this just look beautiful

[simple canopy]

it does, but you didn't use emojis

😔

[worn void]

well

Also ik i need to rename the title

[simple canopy]

ok, thats out of topic now

[worn void]

fine 😔

[simple canopy]

[quick moon]

I'm back. It didn't work. I used the script that you gave with the .bat file, but for some reason, it still didn't wanna work.

[pallid token]

Now that I've implemented a select dropdown, the bot takes much much longer to shut down.
Event loop seems to only close sometimes. Otherwise it just sits there forever. Is this normal?

[worn void]

Elaborate on what you mean? How are you shutting down the bot?

[pallid token]

SIGTERM graceful shutdown of the bot. Bot goes through the process of closing loop, cleaning up tasks, etc.

INFO:discord.client:Received signal to terminate bot and event loop.
INFO:discord.client:Cleaning up tasks.
INFO:discord.client:Cleaning up after 5 tasks.
INFO:discord.client:All tasks finished cancelling.
INFO:discord.client:Closing the event loop.

[worn void]

hm not sure

maybe theres something internal with the actual dropdown

[pallid token]

It gets to "Closing the event loop." and just sits there for ages.

[worn void]

not sure, im not very graceful and ctrl + c, saying fuck all

[severe storm]

how can i play a mp3 file in a vc?

[worn void]

maybe try

voice.play(discord.FFmpegPCMAudio(executable="C:/path/ffmpeg.exe", source="C:/songpath"))

[errant crane]

Here's the basic voice example.

[severe storm]

thanks, i will look into this

[clever nova]

is it possible to limit the visibility and interaction with a button to a certain role or user?

[pallid token]

Heh. Welp. Issue with us is that we have some cleanup logic that has to be executed at shutdown lol

[errant crane]

Here's the button roles example.

[cyan quail]

visibility would only be possible if it's sent in an interaction response using ephemeral=True
otherwise you'd just have to compare interaction.user in the callback

[prisma flicker]

Or interaction_check

[harsh dust]

i host it on my synology nas

meaning im hosting it completely for free but also the specs of it aren't great

but its still manageable

[worn void]

How can I strip a channel for all of its permissions

use channel.edit with overwrites={}

[cyan quail]

should be discord.ui.Button

also you didn't actually assign any callbacks

and callback doesn't take the button argument if you're not using decorators, you should instead access interaction.custom_id

[worn void]

how would I do that

interaction isnt defined btw

[undone smelt]

discord.Interaction

"what about the button"
discord.ui.Button I gotcha brother

[worn void]

lol that doesnt work either somehow

[undone smelt]

you mean the type right?

[worn void]

they said to use "interaction.custom_id"

del_button = discord.ui.Button(label="Delete", discord.Interaction.custom_id="delete_ticket", style=discord.ButtonStyle.danger, emoji="🔒")

[full basin]

Why dont you just use the decorator

Youre subclassing view after all

[meager mica]

Hey so does anyone know why when I edit a messages view from buttons to dropdown it activeates dropdown before they select an option

This is in button callback ```
view = discord.ui.View(Dropdown(self.confirm_interaction))
await self.confirm_interaction.edit_original_message(embed=embed, view=view)

class Dropdown(discord.ui.Select):
    def __init__(self, confirm_interaction: discord.Interaction):
        self.confirm_interaction = confirm_interaction
        options = [

        ]
        for i in range(1, 17):
            options.append(
                discord.SelectOption(label=f"Team {i}", value=str(i), description=f"Your preferred team is {i}"))
        super().__init__(
            placeholder="Choose your preferred team",
