Basic Pycord Help (Quick Questions Only)

[round rivet]

I have my website in a Website directory on the root account so I'd be using WORKDIR /Website

[vapid pumice]

mmm okay I shall try to locate such. I just need to define these terms as I'm SUCH a noob to all of this. Tysm for the help

[shell hornet]

issue.

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/home/eniuu/Desktop/Stuff/discordbotyIpyton/ppts bot/ppts bot.py", line 12, in <module>
    client = discord.Bot()
AttributeError: module 'discord' has no attribute 'Bot'

[young bone]

Show the pip list

[round rivet]

Uninstall discord.py

And install py-cord not pycord

[vapid pumice]

So when attempting to define my worker directory - I simply need to consider the path in which my main.py resides, no?

Because that shit doesn't seem to be working >.<

[proud mason]

uninstall all this

discord                      2.0.0
discord-components           2.1.2
discord.py                   2.0.1
discord-webhook              0.14.0
discordSuperUtils            0.3.0

tbh

[young bone]

uninstall pycord

[silver moat]

discord-webhook is fine

[silver moat]

pycord is also fine

[proud mason]

uhh yeah thats what it is for most basic docker files

[young bone]

py-cord yes, pycord no?

[vapid pumice]

It's just NOT letting me build the image >.<

failed to solve with frontend dockerfile.v0: failed to read dockerfile: open /var/lib/docker/tmp/buildkit-mount883359202/Dockerfile: no such file or directory

[silver moat]

it didn’t have any conflicts

[proud mason]

yeah but why have it when 1 lib does it and does it good

[young bone]

k

[round rivet]

run pwd in the directory your code is in and use that

[silver moat]

because slightly more memory efficient

[proud mason]

[vapid pumice]

Still the same error

[proud mason]

||gonna use space when user most likely didnt want that library||

[vapid pumice]

pwd tells me my path is C:\LocalCode>

I specify that and get the same error

[proud mason]

whats the location of your main.py

[vapid pumice]

C:\LocalCode\kidsoftheapocalypse\main.py

[round rivet]

oh

make sure Dockerfile has a capital D

[proud mason]

yeah then remove main.py from it

and use that.

try C:\LocalCode\kidsoftheapocalypse ig

[vapid pumice]

failed to solve with frontend dockerfile.v0: failed to read dockerfile: open /var/lib/docker/tmp/buildkit-mount4077465603/Dockerfile: no such file or directory

this is the code:

FROM python:3.10-alpine

WORKDIR C:\LocalCode\kidsoftheapocalypse\

COPY requirements.txt ./
RUN pip3 install -r requirements.txt

COPY . .

CMD [“python3”, “main.py”] 

[proud mason]

dk then. havent done docker before. i wanna use it but idk where to start and what guides to use

[round rivet]

it's named Dockerfile not dockerfile right

[vapid pumice]

Right

[silver moat]

google

[vapid pumice]

tbh, there are great tuts on google, but I am seriously stuck at this error I'm getting

I have no clue where I went wrong, and I've been back through the process 5 times. I get the same result every time

[proud mason]

yeah but looking for some basic stuff. last time i got stuff for more advanced things. will see again tho

[vapid pumice]

Tried changing path - changing drives - changing images

[round rivet]

are you building it in vscode

[vapid pumice]

yes'

[proud mason]

must be the issue

[round rivet]

try using a normal terminal

[vapid pumice]

INTERESTING

okay, so I'm so sorry I'm such a noob..what is considered a "normal terminal"?

[round rivet]

like

command prompt

[vapid pumice]

got it! Will try!

[round rivet]

hit win+r and type in cmd

[proud mason]

windows search (bottom left. idk what thats called) would get you there too

[round rivet]

windows key and start typing will open search

[proud mason]

mhm that thing

[vapid pumice]

Yea, no still jack shit from the CMD Prompt. I'm stuck on this one 🥹

[proud mason]

did you go to the directory your files are in?

[vapid pumice]

OMFG

I THINK IT'S WORKING

[proud mason]

cd C:\LocalCode\kidsoftheapocalypse iirc. i have forgotten how windows does it

[proud mason]

oooohhh

👀

[vapid pumice]

omg a new error 🥲

[proud mason]

thats progress 😂

[vapid pumice]

FACTS! hahaha
Gonna keep at this! Thanks for the help xD

[severe dawn]

is there a way to add "extra attributes" to a slash command? I'm creating my own help command, and I need a way to implement a usage argument which I would then display in said custom help command.

[proud mason]

not exactly sure, i think you can create a decorator that add attribute to the function use the thread

~~somewhat like https://github.com/Pycord-Development/pycord/blob/master/discord/commands/core.py#L1725~~
use the thread

[silver moat]

please do not crosspost

[vapid pumice]

Now I can't get pipreqs to work omg XD

This has been a rough day, my friends

[silver moat]

this is basic python

you are making a comparison between two values. what is the comparator

did you mean select.values[0] == "4":?

[proud mason]

man really needs his own help channel

[vapid pumice]

@me rn with this bs Docker setup LMFAO

[proud mason]

lmao

[vapid pumice]

Error: failed to build wheels for numpy which is required to install project.tmol

Yet my numpy is up to date

like wut

Updated numpy, checked location, downgraded python - to no avail.

I'm gonna have to call it for now...in the mean time, any other suggested methods of distribution to Digital Ocean other than Docker? It seems I may have to restart with a new distro :/

[copper dew]

Running it manually in a VM would also be the next option

[copper dew]

If you need a reference for how I do it, I'll put a link on my version based on the Alpine Linux base: https://github.com/No767/Kumiko/blob/dev/Docker/Alpine-Docker/Dockerfile

[fiery tiger]

How can i connect my postgresql database to an vps?

i forgot the command..

nvm another error now

the migrations failed tho bruh

How can i login?

[copper dew]

For asyncpg just make the connection uri (refer to the docs). And for an ORM, just refer to the docs of that ORM

[limber bison]

if i have the numbers 1-10. How can i return all combinations of three numbers that add up to be less than 7?

[silver moat]

is this homework?

[limber bison]

no its for a bot but im having an aneurism trying to figure out how to write it

[silver moat]

for i in range(1,11):
  for j in range(2, 11):
    for k in range(3, 11):
      if i + j + k < 7:
        print(i,j,k)

this is a brute force way

[limber bison]

what if instead of a range, i have 10 random numbers between 200-300 and need combinations of 3 that are less than 750?

thats closer to what im actually dealing with

[silver moat]

nums = [200, 250, 300, 350, 400...]

for i in nums:
  for j in nums:
    for k in nums:
      if i+j+k < 750:
        print(i,j,k)

nums is the list of numbers

[limber bison]

oh ok tyvm my squishy friend

[silver moat]

yw

This is O(n^3)

[fringe socket]

Some Discord bots like Crafty, have no bot status at all. No offline, no online, no idle, no do not disturb. Just. Nothing. How do I do this for my Discord bot?

[copper dew]

probably using an HTTP server instead (and directly contacting the discord gateway instead). iirc this is what MEE6 and Dank Memer had to do since their discord lib (which im guessing is discord.js) couldn't handle the sheer amount of sharding that was needed

[silver moat]

mee6 runs on python and dank memer runs on eris

https://gist.github.com/advaith1/451dcbca2d7c3503d4f48d63eb918cb0

[copper dew]

oh thanks for telling me that

[rugged lantern]

no

[loud holly]

Just paginator and their examples...

#help-rules

[fringe socket]

No one is going to spoonfeed you. Does anyone even read #help-rules ?

[spice oyster]

No, it's too long.

[fringe socket]

You know how some bots join servers FOR you when you add them to your server? How can I implement that into my bot?

[cyan quail]

that's not strictly bot invites, that's using other oauth2 scopes which isn't part of the library
https://discord.com/developers/docs/topics/oauth2

[fringe socket]

Which section is it?

Sorry, got 0 hours of sleep last night, don't want to strain my eyes for too long.

[cyan quail]

well i just linked the scopes

probably guilds.join

[fringe socket]

OK will look into

For now my bot just DMs the owner of the guild in question with an embed including a link to the server

Also, how do I make a URL button?
For some reason mine isn't working.

I don't have access to the code rn.

[rugged lantern]

crazy

#1031475930297798706

[fervent cradle]

i am trying to get an output like (Screenshot above) for the whitelist roles and this is my code

@inviteblocker.command(description='Shows the current status of the inviteblocker')
    async def status(self, ctx):
        check = await db.run_query(f'select exists(select * from inviteblocker where guild_id = {ctx.guild.id})')
        if check[0]['exists'] == True:
            rsrc = await db.run_query(f'select whitelist_roles from inviteblocker where guild_id = {ctx.guild.id}')
            if rsrc == None:
                rlist = 'none'
            else:
                rlist = rsrc[0]['whitelist_roles']
            ibsembed = discord.Embed(title=f'Inviteblocker status for {ctx.guild.name}', description=f'Status: true\n**Whitelist roles**\n{roles.mention for roles in rlist}')
            await ctx.respond(embed=ibsembed)
        else:
            ibsembed = discord.Embed(title=f'Inviteblocker status for {ctx.guild.name}', description=f'Status: false')
            await ctx.respond(embed=ibsembed)

but instead i am getting an output like this

[cyan quail]

You have to wrap a generator (x for x in) in brackets [] so it's a list

Also you'd probably want to use string joining

[simple canopy]

light theme 💀

[fervent cradle]

it now raises the error, int object has no attribute mention, how do i fix that, i mean if it was one id i could convert it to role object, but here there are list of ids and am not sure what to do

[cyan quail]

So is rlist a list of IDs?

[fervent cradle]

yes

extracted from a database

[cyan quail]

There are two main methods;

• use guild.get_role(id) to get the object, then you can use .mention
• just format the ID with an fstring like f"<@&{id}>"

[fervent cradle]

can i use guild. get_role for a list of ids (int type) and get it converted to list of users types?

[cyan quail]

Uhh if you want a user it'd be bot.get_user or guild.get_member

[fervent cradle]

wait no i mean sorry to role types not user types

[cyan quail]

You'd have to use get_role on each ID in the list separately

[reef ore]

hello, got a question - is there any way to get a message (or its ID) from interaction coming from clicking a button on that message?

[cyan quail]

interaction.message

[reef ore]

thank you! 🙂

[fervent cradle]

thanks it works just one last thing is it possible if i can remove those quotes and brackets from the output (since its a list) without using map or join?

[cyan quail]

why wouldn't you use join

[fervent cradle]

just wanted to know if there are any other methods too

[cyan quail]

well yeah like using a for loop, or if you wanna be weird convert the entire list to string and use replace to remove brackets and commas

but there's not much reason to when join is designed for the task

[vapid pumice]

Hii - I'm trying to run my bot with VM2, but I'm receiving this error...

[PM2][ERROR] Interpreter python is NOT AVAILABLE in PATH. (type 'which python' to double check.)

I have double checked that python is up to date AND actually in PATH, but still receive this error. I'm in windows 10 and which python is not an executable command. Any ideas as to how I can fix this?

Note: I'm attempting to do this in CMD Prompt - is this a problem?

[cyan quail]

what about python3 instead of python

[vapid pumice]

Same error :/

[cyan quail]

yeah idrk much about pm2

might be best to google or maybe find a server that's dedicated to it

[vapid pumice]

I gave up on Docker because I couldn't get numpy legs to generate and now PM2 has me stuck here

[cyan quail]

rip

[vapid pumice]

Google has nothing for me (been all over), but good idea on looking for a PM2 server! I will try that out ^-^

[thorny breach]

Hi, does anyone know a way to get the client into a dynamic cooldown from a cog?

def cooldown_core(message:discord.Message):
    if message.author.id == client.owner.id: # I need client here
        return False
    return commands.cooldown(3,10)

# ...

AC = discord.ApplicationContext
class CoreCog(discord.Cog):
    def __init__(self, client:commands.Bot):
        self.client = client

    # ...

    @slash_command(name="test", description="Testing cooldowns")
    @commands.dynamic_cooldown(cooldown_core)
    async def test(self, ctx:AC):
        await ctx.respond("Message Sent!")

[wary rover]

Hi there!
Do you know how to retrieve the content of the response to a slash command?

I can edit it but I can't get the content of the message that the bot answers... I may have forgotten something

[young bone]

message = ctx.respond()
print(message)?

[wary rover]

My message has been edited by the bot several times so I do not have to retrieve the message at the beginning

[copper dew]

For dockerfiles, use tini to spawn PID 1 as the process u want (probably the bot), and then once the docker container stops, tini will reap all zombie processes

I used to use pm2 but it isn't the best way to use in docker images

[spice oyster]

You can message.id there.

[spice oyster]

Is there a way to edit a message as a response to an interaction and then, after x seconds, revert that change by making another edit within the same callback? Solved but still interested to know if there are better alternatives.

The only way I could think of is to rely on on_message_edit() and check if the message being edited needs to be edited back. Solved in a different way (see below).

I've managed to edit it back by using interaction.edit_original_response() but the file attached to the message (that I use as thumbnail for the embed) is either stopping the edit (if file is being passed as parameter) or incorrectly showing the old thumbnail outside of the embed (if file is not being passed as parameter). Any ideas? Solved by passing attachments = [].

[thorny breach]

After further investigation, it seems that when used with application commands it uses application context, not message

[cyan quail]

no it always uses Context i actually can't tell

[vapid pumice]

I've wound up switching to pm2 from Docker all together, but it's presented it's own array of problems ofc 🥹

[proud mason]

try specifying the python with its version in the interpreter flag --interpreter=python3.10

or --interpreter=/path/to/bin/python

[proud pagoda]

If you have a credit card, then Railway is good as it gives you $5 of usage for free monthly with no hour limit

Oh, ok

Are you a student?

Yeah but that's paid

And github student dev pack only gives you 3 months free of that

But if you're a student, you could try out microsoft azure, although that can be a bit difficult to set up

Since that's a full vps that you're given with complete access

[silver moat]

1, it was bugged

[proud pagoda]

Oh alright

[undone falcon]

is there a way to run a async function in a other thread than the main asynco loop where the bot is running ? That function takes a long time to execute, and I get bot not responding error while it run, so I want to run it in a other thread

[vapid pumice]

This is what ended up working for me! ^-^

[full basin]

Yeah. You can use asyncio, don't know how to at all. But Google has some answers.

[proud cargo]

asking because theres all sorts of random features ive never heard of; is it possible to get a calendar ui in a slash command Option?

[silver moat]

https://pypi.org/project/dis-uniter/

[cyan quail]

no, but datepicker is a planned feature

[proud cargo]

Oh cool

[cyan quail]

as per https://github.com/discord/discord-api-docs/discussions/3581

[proud cargo]

Is there like a feed where new features get posted

[cyan quail]

well that'd be #discord-api-updates

[rare ice]

.tag noreplit

[winter condor]

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.

[rare ice]

Railway

I recommend imo

But you should just get a VPS

It’s worth it

https://railway.app

[gleaming falcon]

Having a brainfart. When loading the whole bot, cogs can have a listener() for on_ready to do any fun setup things.

When atomically reloading the cog, you can use self.bot.is_ready, but since it's the init, can't naturally call async methods. Are there any built-ins that handle this, or do I have to put in the boilerplate asyncio methods (asyncio.ensure_future? self.bot.loop.create_task?)

[full basin]

bot.dispatch("ready")

[gleaming falcon]

I initially thought that, but the dispatch from reloading one Cog would cause the on_ready listeners in all Cogs to fire, no? And I could personalize it per Cog, but that's janky.

I guess that's simple enough.

  def __int__(self, bot):
    # ...
    if self.bot.is_ready():
      self.bot.loop.create_task(self.on_ready())

[silver moat]

send requirements.txt

remove discord.py

[fringe socket]

yep if you want to use pycord you need to install py-cord. crazy huh?

[silver moat]

well, discord.py and py-cord use the same namespace so conflicts

[fringe socket]

Which would you say is better, now that discord.py is back?

React with for Py-cord
React with for discord.py

Opinions?

[silver moat]

both have their own ups and downs. Neither is exactly better than the other from a library perspective since both use a very similar codebase.

add wikipedia==1.4.0 in requirements.txt

[fringe socket]

Far more people know about discord.py, which makes it more trusted. However, py-cord is almost always more up-to-date.

That pretty much goes for anything haha

YouTube Coding Videos are useless.

You can't understand anything.

[silver moat]

ikr imagine using replit after railway

[fringe socket]

Yeah. Sadly I live in Oceania, so I get an average of 82 Ping. But, lately I've been getting something like 1830 ping.

[silver moat]

iirc railway has servers on the east coast, while discord's servers are in virginia, so basically next door

it was just public info

but sure

[vapid pumice]

Feel like this is a MEGA basic question (I'm sorry :(), but..

how do I send a message after using interaction.response.defer since I cannot use interaction.response.send_message considering the interaction has already been responded to? 🥲

[silver moat]

interaction.followup.send

[vapid pumice]

it throws me AttributeError: 'Webhook' object has no attribute 'send_message'

[silver moat]

oops, just send

[vapid pumice]

omg thank you thank you thank you!!!

If you have a moment, what would be the proper way to find out a question like that without bothering a human? Like, how to retrieve that from docs, if you might know?

Totally agree. I want to get better at utilizing the resources available so that time here for others can be minimal from the perspective of "let me assist the noob" which..unfortunately is me a lot right now, but I will grow and pass it along however I'm able.

I am new to database (using SQlite3) and I was wondering why when I delete a Guild(it was deleted correctly I checked) it does not delete all the 3 other rows in table that I reference with ON DELETE CASCADE

Hey! How do I make a discord bot grab a specific user's PFP?

I know that I can use

avatar = member.display_avatar.url

but I'm trying to make it get a pre-defined user's pfp.
when I use the user's actual pfp url, it means that if they change pfp, it will disappear

[drifting sleet]

🤔

There are like 3 attributes for avatar, never knew what's the actual difference

how to send a embed with a view in a specified channel?
i use :py await self.current.source.channel.send(embed=self.current.create_embed(),view=MusicUI(MusicV2.get_voice_state(self._ctx)))
but it seems doesnt sending the embed, but dont threw error tho

[spice oyster]

When you open the connection to the database, you need to enable pragma keys.

query = "PRAGMA foreign_keys = ON;"
async with self.client.database.cursor() as cursor:
    await cursor.execute(query)

[tribal bough]

while installing pycord i am getting this error ERROR: Could not build wheels for aiohttp, frozenlist, multidict, yarl, which is required to install pyproject.toml-based projects

[cobalt tangle]

why am I getting this error:

local variable 'x' referenced before assignment

My economy check function:

def check(user_id):
    result = collection.find({})
    for r in result:   
        print(r["user"])
        y = r["user"]
        if y == user_id:

The cmd works for ppl verified

but doesnt send the error msg Please do setup for ppl not verified

[spice oyster]

return x should be at the very end, on the same level of indentation as result, otherwise you aren't returning anything when the else happens.

[cobalt tangle]

oh ok

[cobalt tangle]

wait a sec

Imagine if the order was as if:

id1 = False, id2 = True, id3 = False (By True, i mean the ID matches the guy im looking for)

It iterates through the ids

It changes x to True in the mid

[spice oyster]

You can use break there.

[cobalt tangle]

but x becomes False in the end

[cobalt tangle]

oh yea

ty

@spice oysterstill getting the same issue

[spice oyster]

what's ur code now

[cobalt tangle]

also, x is not defined globally anywhere

def check(user_id):
    result = collection.find({})
    x = False
    for r in result:   
        print(r["user"])
        y = r["user"]
        if y == user_id:
            x = True
            break
    return x

[fervent cradle]

how send files like this

ctx.send(there file)

[cobalt tangle]

await ctx.send(file=file)

[fervent cradle]

ok i test

[cobalt tangle]

with the import

[fervent cradle]

yeah i know

[cobalt tangle]

discord.File()

[fervent cradle]

@cobalt tangle can you send etc

[cobalt tangle]

file=discord.File("file.txt")

[fervent cradle]

thanks

[cobalt tangle]

^

[cobalt tangle]

If required, send the path

[fervent cradle]

ok

is eny way to randomize what its send(i want my bot send random videos what i added in)

[spice oyster]

What's the line where you get this error?

[spice oyster]

Make a list of videos, choose a random number and use it as index.

[fervent cradle]

ok i test

[cobalt tangle]

return x

[young bone]

You can just loop and use random

[spice oyster]

Also that. I doubt they need to use the secrets module in this case but it's an option even with that.

beter the errpr

[spice oyster]

Add ctx.defer() at the beginning of the Slash Command.

Are the files in the same folder as the file calling them?

[fervent cradle]

like this
ctx.defer()@bot.command(description = "heittä kivi")
async def kivi(ctx):
await ctx.respond(file=tiedosto)

[fervent cradle]

yeah there are

[spice oyster]

No, you just call it inside, on the first line.

[fervent cradle]

like this @bot.command(description = "heittä kivi")
ctx.defer() async def kivi(ctx):
await ctx.respond(file=tiedosto)

[spice oyster]

Please, this is basic stuff. Inside the function.

async def kivi(ctx):
    await ctx.defer()
    await ctx.respond(file=tiedosto)

[fervent cradle]

i am beginner sorry

@spice oyster thanks A LOT I think you should get some helpper role

[spice oyster]

I'm happy it worked.

[sleek haven]

how to i disable the button

because i can still click it but it wont edit but i want so its disabled "cant be clicked"

[spice oyster]

You can use either button.disabled = True or self.disable_all_items().

[rare ice]

button.disabled*

[sleek haven]

ty

[young bone]

you first kick and then mention the member

thats why it doesn´t work

also at the 3. elif what is riceBot?

check for self.client

[indigo badger]

What could I use to alow prefix and slash to run with the ctx part.

@bridge.bridge_command()
    async def test3(self, ctx):
        await ctx.reply("Test")

[young bone]

ctx.respond()

?

[indigo badger]

As I tryed respond and it said that it was not a attabut of context.

[young bone]

do you have something else installed?

[indigo badger]

No.

[young bone]

ctx.respond() should work with the bridge

Is there a problum with those kind of commands in b7?

Is import name 'permission' from 'discord' not part of the py-cord==2.2.0?

You still there?

[indigo badger]

Anyone?

[indigo badger]

?

[young bone]

permissions

?

[indigo badger]

Did they get rid of is_owner as that seems to be erroring now?

?

[young bone]

commands.is_owner()?

[indigo badger]

Same thing after the update.

?

@bridge.bridge_command()

That is the code that is with it.

[young bone]

if your bot a bridge bot?

client = bridge.Bot()

[indigo badger]

Will prefix commands still work in bridge bot?

[young bone]

yes

[indigo badger]

So all it will change is allowing bridge commands to work?

Do I need to change anything else in the line I have?

Or is that all.

[spice oyster]

What's the easiest way to upload all my files? I'm a bit lost after creating the instance.

[undone falcon]

thanks !

[copper dew]

GitHub clone ?

[rugged lantern]

google

[proud pagoda]

Um that's not how it works

You can't import modules to the requirements.txt file

And random is already built into python so you don't have to specify it in the file

[rare ice]

@fervent cradle Please don’t ping support members randomly.

[rare ice]

Slash command can’t have an alias

So remove aliases

.docslink discord.SlashCommand

[winter condor]

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

[rare ice]

ooooo new docs

It shouldn’t

Make sure you have NO other slash commands with the same thing

Double check every file

[full basin]

The function name is irrelevant if you override the name on the decorator.

[rare ice]

The error wouldn’t be caused by anything else, so you must have it duplicated somewhere.

You can also try removing the slash command itself, start the bot, then add it back then restart it

good idea

[spice oyster]

With some editors you can open the project folder and easily search a string across all files.

[rocky raft]

I created a simple bot with slash commands in a COG but the CTX object is just the COG itself!? So my code fails at ctx.respond because obvjously the cog doesnt have that attribute.
So: HOW do you access the actual context of the command invoked like it usually works??

[silver moat]

you forgot self

[rocky raft]

https://tenor.com/view/awkward-lol-gif-20709392

thx though xD

[devout anvil]

you dont need to do datetime.timedelta, just put 5 as the argument

[silver moat]

it takes a datetime.timedelta object

[north tartan]

why doesn't my discord bot work on other servers?

[silver moat]

define doesn't work

.tag idw

[winter condor]

Saying it doesn't work or asking what's wrong with this code? is not helpful for yourself or others.
Describe what you expect and/or tried (with your code), and what isn't going right.
Please provide any errors you get for optimal assistance.

[north tartan]

added my bot to another server and it doesn't work

[silver moat]

define doesn't work

[north tartan]

When i start the bot i don't get the list of slash commands even when i have the server id specified

that's the problem

[silver moat]

remove the guild_ids parameter

will make the slash commands global

[north tartan]

Thank you

it was that thank you very much

and why does this appear

[copper dew]

code ?

[north tartan]

oops i saw the error

[copper dew]

ok

[fiery skiff]

how do you atcually program the bot?

like where do i code?

[young bone]

At your PC?

[full basin]

lmao

[young bone]

Using python?

Like are you asking which IDE to use or which language or something else?

[young bone]

[fast totem]

I guess he's talking about the ide

[fervent cradle]

how do I go about creating a queue for my music command, it simply has to register a queue and play it as the user gives the command

        if ctx.author.voice.channel.id != vc.channel.id: # check if the bot is not in the voice channel
            return await ctx.respond("You must be in the same voice channel as the bot.") # return an error message
        global song
        song = await wavelink.YouTubeTrack.search(query=search, return_first=True) # search for the song


        if not song: # check if the song is not found
            return await ctx.respond("No song found.") # return an error message

        await vc.play(song) # play the song
        await ctx.respond(f"Now playing: `{vc.source.title}`") # return a message
        while True:
            await asyncio.sleep(30)

            if vc.is_playing() == False:
                await vc.disconnect()
                await ctx.respond("Left due to inactivity")
                break
            

    except Exception as e:
          #my error handler code```

I'm working on the example from the pycord examples^^

[spice oyster]

https://youtu.be/E9U-EBG8jVk

[fiery skiff]

is it online or?

do i need to download smt?

like, where do i go to program my bot?

[spice oyster]

Watch the video I linked and read #help-rules too.

[sage eagle]

this is totally not the correct server to ask in, but do anyone know how i can make a function that, when called, knows if it was called using async or normal sync, and calls the appropriate function? This way you could do for example

async def example1():
  await hello_world()

#sync
def example2():
  hello_world()

Behind the scenes it actually calls two different functions.

I know this is possible in some way, as I've seen it with a library i've used, however when i tried checking the code on how they did it, I didn't really get very far as it was very confusing.

Any ideas?

[pseudo dawn]

Hi, dunno, if I should open my own thread, but I would like to add some prometheus metrics to my bot.
I don't know if the prometheus library does interfere with pycord, since both of them use webservers.

I just wanted to ask beforehand, so I don't continue developing the Bot and finding out months later, that something breaks in a weird way.

[spice oyster]

Check if inspect.iscoroutinefunction() (also available in asyncio, but slightly different) is what you need.

[cosmic cobalt]

why does this happen?

AttributeError: loop attribute cannot be accessed in non-async contexts. Consider using either an asynchronous main function and passing it to asyncio.run or using asynchronous initialisation hooks such as Client.setup_hook```

[fervent cradle]

how do I implement disconnect and cleanup for a vc?

no, we will not do your homework

[young bone]

is that in a command?

[wild socket]

no

on_guild_join(self, guild)

and its version specific i suppose, as its fine for my development server

[young bone]

you could do len([member for member in guild.members if not member.bot])

[wild socket]

yes, i am not saying its not working, its just, if there's an error in library's code that can be fixed

[young bone]

which version do you have installed?

[wild socket]

py-cord 2.2.2

[young bone]

that one works for me

[wild socket]

version?

[young bone]

2.2.0

[wild socket]

i have 2.1.0 installed in development serv

hmm

guess i ll have to downgrade the version

[young bone]

do you have something else installed?

[wild socket]

nope

[pseudo glen]

or try it again?

IDLE works too

[full basin]

You mean IDE.

[spare juniper]

No idle

The python ide

The not good one that comes with python

[fervent cradle]

how can i check if the author of the message is the client in an on_message event in a cog, without using the bot's id directly in the code?

if message.author.id == #bot id function:
                pass

[timber skiff]

Does does one programmatically add a reaction to a message?

[spice oyster]

if message.author == self.bot.user:

[fervent cradle]

thanks

is it possible to have multiple on_message events in the same cog?

@commands.Cog.listener()
async def on_message(self, message):
    print('on message event #1')

@commands.Cog.listener()
async def on_message(self, message):
    print('on message event #2')
    
@commands.Cog.listener()
async def on_message(self, message):
    print('on message event #3')

i need all the listeners to be called and not just the last one

[spice oyster]

Just do everything in the same listener.

You can use ifs to check what you need.

You can call functions if the code is too long.

[fervent cradle]

with my code its too complicated for it, and i do not want to rewrite it, since each message event serves a different moderation purpose

like one of the event manages the blacklist word filter and the other manages advertisement filter

[spice oyster]

I don't think you have other alternatives.

[cyan quail]

see https://docs.pycord.dev/en/stable/api.html#discord.Bot.listen for example usage

(cog.listener is equal to bot.listen)

[fervent cradle]

well i tried having multiple cog listeners with on_mesage event but it just called the last one

[fervent cradle]

my code was like this, and it only called the 3rd event

[cyan quail]

because you called all your functions the same name

as i said, the docs shows how to do it with different names

[fervent cradle]

ok thank you

[reef ore]

hello, any idea how can i get the selectmenu selected option from interaction?

You receive select ^ on the callback

discord.errors.HTTPException: 400 Bad Request (error code: 50035): Invalid Form Body In data.components: This field is required i keep getting this error on modals and idk why

class MyView(discord.ui.View): @discord.ui.button(label="Submit Display Name To Proceed with the Nuke", style=discord.ButtonStyle.danger, emoji="💣") async def button_callback(self, button, interaction): await interaction.response.send_modal(poopmodal(title="Modal via Button")) my code is correct right?

[full basin]

Full traceback

[young bone]

if you get it from the modal why do you send the button and not the modal? also you get the error what tells you a field is empty

[fallow hawk]

the modal is crazy long

and was working a bit ago

[full basin]

A full traceback would help to detect what you're missing

[fallow hawk]

ok here it is

had to giver the stuff that has my name

[young bone]

check the modal if something is only "" or '' without a text or something else

[fallow hawk]

i dont

In data.components: This field is required it says this so would it by any chance have new params?

Has anyone been able to record using pycord?

I tried using the library, but I get errors when I try to record

I think the issue was raised earlier here: #998272089343668364 message

I get a similar error

This is what my error looks like

guys do you know if there is a snippet available anywhere for selectmenu callback usage?

[barren elk]

I don't know if this is something similar to what you were looking for

But, I found this: https://guide.pycord.dev/interactions/ui-components/dropdowns/

this did not really help me

i still do not know where i code the bot...

[copper dew]

this vid iirc uses replit, which is fine for testing and educational purposes, but hosting on replit is a poor move

shared ips, poor specs, etc etc

[barren elk]

Oh ok, thanks for letting me know 😃

What would you suggest is the best option?

[copper dew]

running your bot on a VPS or on something like AWS, Azure, Oracle, DigitalOcean, or GCP

[barren elk]

Oh ok

I will keep that in mind 😃

[copper dew]

ok

• Are you loading cogs before on_ready and on_connect?
• Is on_connect not overridden?
• Did you update to the newest version of py-cord (tag: install)?
• Is User Settings > Accessibility > Chat Input > Use legacy chat input turned off?
• Did you share your code and errors?
• Do you still have libraries that conflict with the discord namespace (e.g. discord.py)?

This can't be the best way to do it right?

[hollow heath]

Is there any better way to do that?

[silver moat]

I don't think so?

doing str(discord.Author) will return the same thing

[vague plover]

Where am I going wrong in syntax here? It's not hitting the setup when I put a debug point in there and I've been wracking my brain for hours

I've tried both @discord.slash_command and @commands.slash_commands. If I indent the command chunk it hits the setup just fine, but then obviously doesn't register the slash command

And there's no errors in the console

Check the error output. I suspect it's either that you are using an older version of Python, which may be breaking with building the wheels needed

Might be something to do with the current platform that u have rn. It should work fine on Windows iirc. It's aiohttp that's having the issue

Aiohttp is a http lib that Pycord uses

That works, thanks!

[reef ore]

answering to my own question in case anyone needs it - it can be retrieved from interaction.data

its important for some more complex architectures, when you have several cogs with limited responsibility and you want to create a select menu in one, but intercept the selection in the other

[gleaming falcon]

Basic question. Is there any function that lets me know if a character is an emoji? For visual instance, if an argument to a slash command is “🎉 yes”, I could test that the first character is an emoji.

[reef ore]

in terms of string representation it is not a single character

try it - just print it out

[copper dew]

It should automatically install with Pycord

[gleaming falcon]

Yes, I know that technically it isn’t. I was being simplistic for the sake of assumption. I should still be able to separate it from the rest of the text and determine if it’s a valid emoji

Like, could I stuff it into PartialEmoji?

[reef ore]

so you want to check for emoji or eliminate it from the argument to the command?

[reef ore]

no clue about that, sorry

[gleaming falcon]

Check for it. So I could ask someone to use “<emoji> <text>” as an argument to, say, a poll command, and it would use the emoji when creating the Button (if it was provided)

[tall palm]

Emoji are represented by a long string of numbers: - in Dev mode on Discord you can right-click to Copy the ID. 🎉 is 1032752525809561731, 😅 is 1032720935138111488, etc.
So you could put code to extract the first piece of the entered string and evaluate if it's a number 19 characters long.

(Yeah I was wrong, and had mis-remembered something where some emoji are represented with numbers but many are not. [:eight_spoked_asterisk:876920313080848404, for example])

[cyan quail]

pretty sure you copied the message ID

unicode emojis on discord don't have IDs

[fiery tiger]

If a members gives us the premission guilds.join is there a code example of how we can make the user join a guild?

[pallid token]

Is there any way to get the name of the slash command group from the command context? When getting the name of the command, I get the sub-command's name (without the slash command group's name in front). Which makes sense as its just a command registered under the group, but it would be nice to be able to get the group name.

Sorry, I'm blind lol.
For anyone wondering the same thing, its SlashCommand#parent

[spark lantern]

Well this is a really stupid question but how does ctx.author work for bridge. It works fine if i use it as a prefixed command but shits itself if i use it as a slash command.

   @bridge.bridge_command(description="Adds a user to our verification system.")
    async def verify(self, ctx):
        member = ctx.author```

```bash
discord.errors.ApplicationCommandInvokeError: Application Command raised an exception: AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'author'

[silver moat]

did you use bridge.Bot?

[spark lantern]

yep i did bot = bridge.Bot(command_prefix=commands.when_mentioned_or("-") intents=intents, help_command=HelpUpdated())

it works fine for prefixed commands but only breaks for slash commands which is pretty weird

[silver moat]

where did you load the cogs?

[spark lantern]

uh in the main.py before on_ready

[silver moat]

I haven't seen that error before

does this happen every time for slash commands?

[spark lantern]

only if its ctx.author and its sub attributes, all the other context related things work, ctx.respond or ctx.guild etc all work

ill make a help ticket

[silver moat]

ping me there

[spark lantern]

sure

[wary rover]

Heyyyy,
I wanted to get the ctx in my class so I could get the right language to display on my buttons. Obviously it doesn't work, do you have an idea?

class setupView(discord.ui.View):
    def __init__(self, context):
        self.ctx = context

        @discord.ui.button(label=getLocale(self.ctx, viewAddToken), row=0, style=discord.ButtonStyle.secondary, disabled=False)
        async def addToken(self, button, interaction):
            ...

[full basin]

you can't use self in decorators

[wary rover]

What does that mean?

[full basin]

You can't access self on decorators

[wary rover]

How can I access a context then?

view=setupView(context=ctx)

[full basin]

You either subclass the button instead. Or there was some other way I don't remember.

I think by not making it a self. attribute

[cerulean drum]

you can intance the button then add it manually using .add_item

[wary rover]

AttributeError: 'setupView' object has no attribute 'children'

[cerulean drum]

you gotta init the super first

[wary rover]

I'm going to need more information because I admit I'm a little lost...

class setupView(discord.ui.View):
    def __init__(self, context):
        super().__init__(self, context)
        
        self.ctx = context

        self.add_item(discord.ui.button(label=getLocale(self.ctx, viewAddToken), row=0, style=discord.ButtonStyle.secondary, disabled=False))
        async def addToken(self, button, interaction):
            ...

[silver moat]

addToken should be in-line with __init__

and the button is missing a callback

so something like:

button = discord.ui.Button(label=getLocale(self.ctx, viewAddToken), row=0, style=discord.ButtonStyle.secondary, disabled=False)
button.callback = addToken
self.add_view(button)

[cerulean drum]

super().__init__()

means you construct the parent class, since you were subclassing View, what you pass to super is the parameter needed for View class

[wary rover]

@silver moat @cerulean drum

I really can't understand...
Every change gives me an error, although what you are telling me makes sense but the code doesn't accept it

[silver moat]

Each modification gives me an error
We aren't Python interpreters, so errors could happen.

If you gave us the actual errors and traceback you encountered from our suggestions, this will help you and us.

[wary rover]

I am already convinced that I have misused the code you gave me

class setupView(discord.ui.View):
    def __init__(self, context):
        super().__init__()
        
        self.ctx = context

        button = discord.ui.Button(label=getLocale(self.ctx, viewAddToken), row=0, style=discord.ButtonStyle.secondary, disabled=False)
        button.callback = addToken()
        self.add_view(button)

AttributeError: 'setupView' object has no attribute 'add_view'

[cerulean drum]

.add_item

[wary rover]

I think it's time for me to go to sleep....

[cerulean drum]

button.callback = self.addToken
wihout the parenthesis, also add self.

[wary rover]

it work

[cerulean drum]

also the callback takes only 2 arguments, (self, interaction)

[wary rover]

button.callback = self.addToken I don't really understand this point

[cerulean drum]

depends, if you define the callback as your view method (same indent as __init__ function), then you access it with self

if you define your callback as a local function (defined under init ), you can access it directly without self

[wary rover]

I've done this, it "works".
The function executes without me clicking on the button

class setupView(discord.ui.View):
    def __init__(self, context):
        super().__init__()
        
        self.ctx = context

        button = discord.ui.Button(label=getLocale(self.ctx, viewAddToken), row=0, style=discord.ButtonStyle.secondary, disabled=False)
        button.callback = addToken()
        self.add_item(button)

def addToken():
    print("OK")
    return

[cerulean drum]

wihout parenthesis

[silver moat]

you called addToken

[cerulean drum]

adding parenthesis means you call them

[cerulean drum]

ugh.. i dont know how to call it, what i mean is ()

[wary rover]

Ah... logic... 😅
If I want to send arguments in my function, how do I do?

addToken() takes 0 positional arguments but 1 was given

[cerulean drum]

add a param then

[silver moat]

it should take one parameter: interaction

[wary rover]

addToken(arg, arg, arg) like this then?
Or is there a different way to do it in this case?

[cerulean drum]

[wary rover]

I was asking you how to send other arguments, here is an example of what I am asking you.```py
class setupView(discord.ui.View):
def init(self, context):
super().init()

    self.ctx = context
    self.one = "one"
    
    button = discord.ui.Button(label=getLocale(self.ctx, viewAddToken), row=0, style=discord.ButtonStyle.secondary, disabled=False)
    button.callback = addToken(self.one)
    self.add_item(button)

async def addToken(interaction, numberOne):
await interaction.response.send_message("OK " + numberOne)
return

addToken() missing 1 required positional argument: 'numberOne'

If I don't give an argument to my function it works fine

But I will need to give arguments

[cerulean drum]

1st what i suggest you is make the callback as method for your view

then add only 2 param (self, interaction)

with that you can access any data under your view class with self

[cerulean drum]

class setupView(discord.ui.View):
    def __init__(self, context):
        self.data1 = 1
        super().__init__()
    async def cb1(self, interaction):
        self.data1 = 1
        ... 

[wary rover]

It's not what I wanted to do but that's okay I'll go with that.
Thanks for your time @cerulean drum @silver moat

[fringe socket]

How do I make {member.roles} return a list of roles instead of this ugly little thing:

@silver moat ?

[fringe socket]

I mean technically it is a list, but it's not ideal.

[spice oyster]

Can't you just member.role.name?

[fringe socket]

WDYM?

[spice oyster]

role_names = [role.name for role in member.roles]

[fringe socket]

This is what I'm using rn

@spice oyster

[spice oyster]

And? It's easy to continue now.

[fringe socket]

Ok i think i know what you mean

[fringe socket]

So @spice oyster now I have this. I'd like it to just appear like this

Roles

[umbral island]

Looking for some help with timestamps.

I'm using this in the footer of an embed.

em.set_footer(text=f"{message.guild.name} | {message.guild.owner} | <t:{timestamp}:f>")

returns the image below. However if you copy paste the timestamp it provides, the timestamp is working.

[fringe socket]

You're not doing it the right way sadly.

Here's the format.

embed.set_footer(text=f"{message.guild.name} | {message.guild.owner} | {discord.utils.format_dt(<your timestamp here>, "f"))

[umbral island]

alrighty, thanks ill try it

[fringe socket]

Also. Here's the OTHER reason why it won't work. Footers don't support formatting.

So. If you want to do a timestamp, you'll have to do it elsewhere. @umbral island

[umbral island]

embeds are annoying to work with ugh

[fringe socket]

You can use timestamps anywhere else in the embed though.

[umbral island]

it doesnt seem to like this, its saying its missing a closed bracket somewhere but I cant see where

[spice oyster]

You have to use ", ".join() for creating a string.

[fringe socket]

where do i use it?

[spice oyster]

The slicing is for removing @everyone.

values = ", ".join(role_names[1:])

[woeful spindle]

??

define ur time stamp where you define the embed?

embed = discord.Embed(timestamp = …)

[woeful spindle]

^ meant to reply to this

[fringe socket]

TYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY

[spice oyster]

You are welcome but that's just Python stuff you should already know.

[umbral island]

what kind of value does this take?

    @commands.is_owner()
    async def invite_rem(self, ctx, member: Option(discord.Member, "Member to remove invites"), amount: Option(int, "Amount of invites")):
        rem_invites(amount, member.id)
        await ctx.respond(f"Removed {amount} invites from {member}")  

one of my cc cmds

    cc = discord.SlashCommandGroup("cc", "Custom Commands")
    fantasy = cc.create_subgroup(name="fantasy", description="Fantasy server custom commands!")

[cobalt tangle]

cmd group

[cyan quail]

the entire group has to have guild_ids

you can't do it on specific subgroups/subcommands

[cobalt tangle]

how do i do that

thats fine with me

[cyan quail]

just put it in SlashCommandGroup

[cobalt tangle]

can i put in subgroup?

if possible

[cyan quail]

has to be the entire group, sorry

that's just how discord handles it

[cobalt tangle]

rip okay

[cobalt tangle]

i understand

it makes sense

discord enters groups as one cmd

@cyan quaildo i have to remove the guild_ids parameter from every cmd?

[cyan quail]

you don't have to remove it, but just know that it gets ignored

[cobalt tangle]

i removed it

[cyan quail]

either way works

[cobalt tangle]

alr

[cobalt tangle]

any decorator to check if an user does not have a role?

can i do @commands.has_role(role=False)

[cyan quail]

Not built in

Just make a custom check

[cobalt tangle]

ok

better to use if since its only one cmd

[fringe socket]

That's after the thing closes though

[cyan quail]

Well there's so many ways for it to close so there's no event for before closing

It only exists after closing because of how the loop works

[fringe socket]

Darn

[fervent cradle]

how do i fetch a guild with its id within a cog

guild_check = self.bot.get_guild(guild_id)
                print(guild_check)

just returns none though the bot is in the server i entered

[indigo kettle]

Hi, I would like to know how can I get the list of users who have clicked the reaction from the message

[cyan quail]

make sure guild_id is int

[cyan quail]

https://docs.pycord.dev/en/master/api/models.html#discord.Reaction.users

server settings > integrations to manage roles/users/channels
on the bot's end, you can only set default permissions as per https://docs.pycord.dev/en/master/api/application_commands.html#discord.commands.default_permissions
alternatively there are internal checks that only apply locally

[loud holly]

is there a way to mention subcommands?

using

bot.get_application_command('subcommand').mention

like that shortcut

[cyan quail]

currently on 2.2.2, you'd need to get the group then group.subcommands and so on to find it and mention.
on the master branch, get_application_command can get subcommands directly py bot.get_application_command("group subgroup subcommand")for example

[loud holly]

awesome thanks a lot!

Another quick question, I presume there's no way to move this button right?

The only way I can think of is using the decorator, however I'm using self to create the disabled button

like the 3rd button being in the middle

forgot to add arrows 😔

[cyan quail]

maybe reorder self.children?

like pop the middle item and append it again

[loud holly]

👍

[cyan quail]

yes

[young bone]

what?

[full basin]

There's no interactions.

Everything is under the py-cord library

[simple canopy]

I'd suggest you reading the guide for better understanding https://guide.pycord.dev

[young bone]

you use ctx inside of the button

remove ctx inside of the button and change it to interaction.response.send_message("text")

https://guide.pycord.dev/interactions/ui-components/buttons

[simple canopy]

https://docs.pycord.dev/en/stable/api.html?highlight=discord interaction#discord.Interaction.response

docs for the discord.Interaction.response

also, arguments in button decorated methods are positional

first is button second is interaction

you have them swapped

[fervent cradle]

🤔 anyone know how to send two local images in an embed?

f = discord.File(blahblah)
sf = discord.File(blahblah)
embed.set_thumbnail(url='attachment://stats_rank.jpg')
embed.set_image(url='attachment://stats.png')
await ctx.respond(file=f, embed=embed)

what am i meant to put for the last line if i have multiple files?
doing [f, sf] doesn't work
appending to a list before creating the embed doesn't work...

pls help! 🙏

[cyan quail]

use files instead of file

[fervent cradle]

thank you!

[lost lodge]

Hey

I use some modals but i get an error in discord but not in my code

Something like that: "Ups, something went wrong!"

code:

class ReportUserModalView(discord.ui.Modal):
    def __init__(self, *args, **kwargs) -> None:
        super().__init__(*args, **kwargs)

        self.add_item(discord.ui.InputText(label="User (UserId or UserNameTag"))
        self.add_item(discord.ui.InputText(label="Why do you reported him/her?", style=discord.InputTextStyle.long))
        self.add_item(discord.ui.InputText(label="Do you have some evidences?", style=discord.InputTextStyle.long))

    async def callback(self, interaction: discord.Interaction):
        channel = discord.utils.get(interaction.guild.text_channels, id=1028611830769262732)
        embed = discord.Embed(title=f"A user was reported by {interaction.user}!")
        embed.add_field(name="User:", value=self.children[0].value, inline=False)
        embed.add_field(name="Reason:", value=self.children[1].value, inline=False)
        embed.add_field(name="Evidences:", value=self.children[2].value, inline=False)
        await channel.send(embed=embed, view=ReportCloseView())```

[round rivet]

you aren't sending an interaction response

[lost lodge]

ah

thx

[pseudo dawn]

I think I remember adding things to the context variable in the past, but I don't recall, if that was in python or javascript tho. So is there some Way to pass information down from a command group to the subcommands. or nested groups?

I am trying to remove duplicate code. Currently I got about 15 different subcommands that all access the database and query for objects. I would rather distribute that a little more, so that the groups do the querying and report an error to the user, if the desired Object is not present.

I already tried the serach functiuon in the docs, but did not find what I wanted....

[full basin]

If you mean a custom context with more functions its possible.

You could also add a function to your cog class where the commands group is

[errant crane]

Here's the custom context example.

[pseudo dawn]

I did that, but at the moment, they are empty except for logging some stuff and doing some primitive metrics stuff with prometheus

[white wadi]

is it possible to reset/disable timeout on interaction.edit_message?

bcs when i edit the message i wanna give it a different view

[young bone]

timeout=None?

[rugged lantern]

timeout is reset if you interact with it

[white wadi]

its not

[rugged lantern]

it is

[young bone]

only if you add it

[rugged lantern]

ig it depends on how poorly you code it

[white wadi]

yeah, im a beginner, so thats probably the reason

[wary rover]

Hello!
I am trying to execute a very slow function.
If I enter my command again it does not respond.
What would be the best solution according to you?
We have already tried several threading tools but the threads open one after the other instead of all running at the same time.

[white wadi]

so the command just doesnt respond in time?

[white wadi]

btw thats why am asking here, bcs i need to improve this thing

[wary rover]

We have set up a message and an edit afterwards, but the problem is that our threads are not executing correctly.

[white wadi]

idk

[rugged lantern]

why are u using both threads and (i assume) asyncio?

[white wadi]

btw i just fixed my issue ....

[pseudo dawn]

Is it safe to just delete a role while there are still Members that posess this role?

[rugged lantern]

what do u expect to happen? they just vanish?

[rugged lantern]

yes. yes it is safe- you will not be liable for their immediate death

[pseudo dawn]

Maybe I'm too tired rn...
I should go to sleep and continue tomorrow.
I don't know what I imagined that should happen. Maybe I was thinking discord was weird or something.... Some other unnamed Messenger had some really strange things, that required you to manually clean up if a bot wanted to delete it, but a normal client could do that directls and he server took care of everything...

[wary rover]

Do you know how to run a function in a thread and get the output?

[silver moat]

thread is ambiguous. thread as in a thread process or a ThreadChannel?

[wary rover]

A python thread, not discord

[silver moat]

what is the use case for this?

[wary rover]

We make a call to an API of an artificial intelligence. This one takes between 1 and 30 seconds to answer.

We noticed that on very large requests the bot becomes unable to respond to other commands or API calls.

[silver moat]

you can simply use aiohttp for this.

there is no need to overcomplicate it

[wary rover]

To make the call we go through a module

def openaiRequestAPI(ctx, max_length, question):    
    check = getToken(ctx.guild.id, ctx.author.id)
    
    if check == []:
        return "You need to add a token first!"
    
    
    openai.api_key = check[0][0]
    response = openai.Completion.create(
        model="text-davinci-002",
        prompt=question,
        temperature=0,
        max_tokens=max_length,
        frequency_penalty=0,
        presence_penalty=0
    )
    
    response = str(response['choices'][0]['text'])[2:]
    
    return response

[silver moat]

this community maintained library is asynchronous: https://github.com/OthersideAI/chronology

[pseudo dawn]

The docs don't mention if removing a role that the user does not have is an error. so is it okay to do that?

[silver moat]

It should raise a https://docs.pycord.dev/en/master/api/exceptions.html#discord.HTTPException

[pseudo dawn]

Okay, thanks. Thats what I expected.

[west pebble]

why is there a connect method... but there isn't a disconnect method in discord.VoiceChannel

[silver moat]

because this https://docs.pycord.dev/en/master/api/voice.html#discord.VoiceProtocol.disconnect

how can only admin see the slash command

anyone can help me

[wary rover]

Re,
I would like to be able to close the previously opened ThreadPoolExecutor to avoid too many open threads.

        loop = asyncio.get_event_loop()
        apiResponse = await asyncio.gather(

        )  

[unborn veldt]

i want the bot to set

@wary rover

owo

[rare ice]

You can’t have bots edit integrations that I know of.

[unborn veldt]

qwq

[silver moat]

you can but only with oauth2

which pycord doesn't have an implementation for

[unborn veldt]

ok

[wary rover]

Don't implement this, it's used to do stupid things

[wary rover]

Nobody? 😭

[bitter lance]

If I reboot bot, can't I interaction view like buttons that sent before reboot??

Should I delete the existing one and send new view?

help plz^^

for some reason it is returning a None type object

i tried printing it aswell

[wild socket]

Hi, So i am trying to make a log where if we change a channel's role permissions, the bot tells what perms were changed and for which role, but i am not able to find how i can do that

[cosmic cobalt]

yo guys

whats the method to get all the synced commands?

[fervent cradle]

Hey, quick question. Why am I getting an error with this class:

But not with this one:

It's nearly the same thing, just a different function

[woeful spindle]

on_member_update does not take member

after and before are already member objects

[fervent cradle]

Oh, thank you.

[merry briar]

Is there a role selection in the Model via Select?

or something similar to choosing a role

[lost lodge]

Hey, how can i get a list of all the reactions of a message?

code:

    @commands.command()
    async def end_poll(self, ctx):
        msg = await ctx.channel.fetch_message(ctx.channel.last_message_id)
        print(msg.reactions())
        for r in msg.reactions():
            print(r)```

[rapid geode]

^

[cyan quail]

get_channel returned None because it couldn't find the ID. DId you convert to int?

[cyan quail]

modals only have text input at the moment

[cyan quail]

it's just reactions
https://docs.pycord.dev/en/master/api/models.html#discord.Message.reactions

[rapid geode]

yep

[cyan quail]

idk then, either you got the wrong ID or you disabled intents so that channels aren't cached

[rapid geode]

self.bot.dbcursor.execute("INSERT INTO welcome_embeds(guild_id,channel_id) VALUES(?,?)",(ctx.guild.id,int(channel.id)))

[rapid geode]

intents=discord.Intents.all()

doesnt this cover it...

[cyan quail]

then you managed to screw up elsewhere the snippet alone you showed looks fine to me

[rapid geode]

my brain hurts

thanakyou i will check the code.

[cyan quail]

actually

[lost lodge]

ok, so that doesn't returns the reaction, only [], how can i count how many times for example 👍 and 👎 was reacted?

[cyan quail]

do you have message content intent

[cyan quail]

just print cha_id

[rapid geode]

tried that

[cyan quail]

doesn't fetchone return a tuple

[rapid geode]

return None

[cyan quail]

... then you found your issue

[lost lodge]

yes

[cyan quail]

oh you messed up

[lost lodge]

oh

[cyan quail]

ctx.channel.last_message_id will return your command message lol

[lost lodge]

ah

haha

and how to get the 2nd last message xD

[rapid geode]

how can i get a integer then

[cyan quail]

idk, but maybe this would be easier as a slash command?

[cyan quail]

that's not the problem, if fetchone is returning None then your query failed

[rapid geode]

i fixed that somehow

i dont even know how

[cyan quail]

so now what does it print

[rapid geode]

new error

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "C:\Users\Baban\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python310\lib\site-packages\discord\client.py", line 382, in _run_event

    channel=self.bot.get_channel(int(cha_id))
TypeError: int() argument must be a string, a bytes-like object or a real number, not 'tuple'

[cyan quail]

right

think of a tuple as similar to a list

how do you access stuff in that

[rapid geode]

??

dint quite get ya

[cyan quail]

...please tell me you know how to access items in a list

[rapid geode]

variable.stuff

somthing like this?

not worked with lists much

[cyan quail]

i am going to cry you access them with an index using square brackets like list[0] for the first item

[rapid geode]

oh yeah i dont have a good memory

[lost lodge]

?

[rapid geode]

uh hey

when i am storing stuff in a databse

its not appearing

but when i am printing it its there

[cyan quail]

this isn't built in, but either;

• channel.history with limit=2
• make it slash so that your command won't count as a message until after it responds

[lost lodge]

like that:

msg = await ctx.channel.fetch_message(ctx.channel.history(limit=2))```

[cyan quail]

not quite

see https://docs.pycord.dev/en/master/api/models.html#discord.TextChannel.history for examples

[lost lodge]

do i have to do a for?

[cyan quail]

don't you need to commit the changes

[cyan quail]

no, see the 2nd example

[rapid geode]

please kill me oh yeah thnks

[lost lodge]

thx

[lost lodge]

so i made a tiny code that sends every emoji but how can i get the count of the emoji? ```py
[<Reaction emoji='👍' me=False count=2>, <Reaction emoji='👎' me=False count=1>, <Reaction emoji=<PartialEmoji animated=True name='loading' id=958386148957368360> me=False count=1>]````

[cyan quail]

read

[lost lodge]

what

[cyan quail]

your message contains the answer

[lost lodge]

idk what you mean

[cyan quail]

https://docs.pycord.dev/en/master/api/models.html#discord.Reaction.count

[lost lodge]

ah, ik that the count is there but i don't know how to print it

[cyan quail]

ok so

reactions is a list

how do you access stuff in a list

[lost lodge]

list = ["STUFF", "STUFF"]
print(stuff[0]```

[cyan quail]

ok

so a Reaction object has the count attribute

[lost lodge]

yes

[cyan quail]

how do you get it then

[lost lodge]

print(stuff[count])````

[cyan quail]

attribute

like

you've probably done ctx.author before

[lost lodge]

yes

[cyan quail]

or ctx.guild, ctx.message, self.bot

[lost lodge]

ye

[cyan quail]

it's all the same

so how would you get count

[lost lodge]

ahhhhh

stuff.count

[cyan quail]

congratulations

[lost lodge]

bonk, error:

        r = msg.reactions
        print(r)
        counter = 0
        for rc in r:
            print(r.count[counter])
            counter += 1````

```py
discord.ext.commands.errors.CommandInvokeError: Command raised an exception: TypeError: 'builtin_function_or_method' object is not subscriptable````

[cyan quail]

what's with [counter]

[lost lodge]

you can image it would be 0 or 1

it's to choose the thing in the list

[cyan quail]

but

count is an int

[lost lodge]

ok, and what does that mean, what do i have to change

[full basin]

It means when you do r.count you receive an int

You don't receive a list

[lost lodge]

ah

[lost lodge]

but now the answer looks like this, i can't find the count in it <built-in method count of list object at 0x106cb5f00>

[full basin]

Should be rc.count

Not r.count

[lost lodge]

thx

it works now totaly fine

[pseudo dawn]

Hi, would you have one databse session per cog, or should I try to have one globally for the whole bot that is stored inside the bot object?

I will need to subclass the bot anyways....

[cyan quail]

if it's the same db then yeah have it globally

[halcyon thistle]

guys what the equivelent of this in pycord?

@bot.event
async def on_slash_command(inter):```

[sleek haven]

so i have this to check if the user has the booster role but i have the role but it dosent print the thing or add the extra 1

[rapid geode]

try

homeGuild=...
role_id = 2134532534
role = homeGuild.get_role(role_id)

[edgy kiln]

is there a way to make slash commands that are owner only only show for the bots owner?

[rapid geode]

i think the commnds are still visible

to other people

i would suggest you to have a dedicated server for this

    @slash_command(guild_ids=[989370159154233375,883180896038027336])
    @commands.is_owner()

[edgy kiln]

so like set the command to only work in one guild and then use that for owner commands?

[rapid geode]

owner only^^

[edgy kiln]

ah ok i see

[full basin]

on_application_command

[edgy kiln]

ty

[halcyon thistle]

ty

[sleek haven]

ok

[rapid geode]

tell me if it prints any error

[sleek haven]

kk

[sleek haven]

bty like this?

yeh

[rapid geode]

uh
