Basic Pycord Help (Quick Questions Only)

[round rivet]

Yeah

[full basin]

Ok that's awesome. Thank you.

[fervent cradle]

cant even use pycord in ohio

[young bone]

you need the git version

!tag install

[civic jay]

Install pycord:

pip uninstall discord.py
pip install py-cord

Install pycord from git repository: (alpha)

pip uninstall discord.py
pip install git+https://github.com/Pycord-Development/pycord

[fervent cradle]

thanks sexy

[rare ice]

[rugged lantern]

so cute

[loud holly]

is there a problem with install master branch on python 3.11? I seem to be getting the error that C++ 14.0 is required, but I'm not using VS

[rugged lantern]

Microsoft C++ Build Tools is not directly linked to VS. you still need it to function, no matter the IDE

[loud holly]

oh I see ty

is it bc of python using C++ to compile into bytes? If I'm using the correct terminology?

[rugged lantern]

python does not specifically use C++ as a compiler, libraries for python does

[lost geyser]

I got a quick question: If i work with files, does it make a signifcant improvement if i open them with a library like aiofiles? Or could i just read files normally without asynchronous execution.

[silver moat]

The issue only arises when you have concurrent users or loading a big file. However, it is recommended to use aiofiles regardless

[lost geyser]

Yeah my file is neither big nor should it happen, that several users need to open it. But i try, thanks!

[loud holly]

will displaying if the variable is int, string or list help in performance since during compiling, python itself will decide the variable type?

[uneven beacon]

anyone knows how to fix this error?

[hushed ledge]

One message removed from a suspended account.

[errant crane]

Here's the slash cog example.

[loud holly]

I believe that is the one you're looking for

@hushed ledge ^

[hushed ledge]

One message removed from a suspended account.

[iron halo]

    embed.set_author(name=ctx.author.display_name, icon_url=ctx.author.display_avatar)
AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'id'```
how has this happened

[cyan quail]

typehinting in python is never enforced, it's mainly for typecheckers/IDEs

you won't see any performance gains unless you seek out a compiler that specifically takes advantage of them

[loud holly]

I see, so is it best practice to go into enforcing typehinting where possible?

[cyan quail]

typehinting is nice for code readability/making your ide happy and is part of the many PEP guidelines so people do encourage its use

thus you could consider it good practice, but it's not going to impact the code itself

[loud holly]

:( Was hoping it'd help in performance a tiny bit

[cyan quail]

ultimately i guess try it out and see if you like it, i pretty much never bothered typehinting but i tried it on a recent cog i worked on and it did look pretty nice in the end

if you're working in an IDE/using stuff like copilot there's also a chance it can complete the typehints for you so it's not much extra work

[loud holly]

It'd be very good practice especially when learning languages that requires typehinting

Thank you!

[cyan quail]

allgood

[uneven beacon]

bruh i asked this question like 5 times today

[cyan quail]

probably because there's like zero context there

you should be getting a full traceback

[white wadi]

Hi, im having problems with timeouts, self.disable_all_items() does nothing to the view so i tried this:

        async def on_timeout(self):
            for child in self.children:
                child.disabled = True
            await self.message.edit(content="You took too long! You have to send another command to continue :(.",
                                    view=self)

This works when the view is called in the slash command, but not in interaction or followup, there it just says that NoneType obj has no attribute edit:

Task exception was never retrieved
future: <Task finished name='discord-ui-view-timeout-17f7431f32310f4a8587cda87b378011' coro=<view.answer_mode.on_timeout() done, defined at /opt/bot/cogs/test.py:179> exception=AttributeError("'NoneType' object has no attribute 'edit'")>
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/opt/opt/bot/cogs/test.py", line 183, in on_timeout
    await self.message.edit(content="You took too long! You have to send another command to continue :(.",
AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'edit'

[cyan quail]

pycord version?

[uneven beacon]

thats the thing
i have no idea whats causing the error

[cyan quail]

instead of just that error in the red box, run the code and paste the full traceback that appears in the console

[white wadi]

VersionInfo(major=2, minor=2, micro=2, releaselevel='final', serial=0)

[cyan quail]

if im not mistaken the view.message implementation is still incomplete

hmm

there are a few ways around it i guess

[white wadi]

i tried the simple self.diable_all_items(), but same results, only works when in slash command

[cyan quail]

if it's the first ctx.respond or interaction.response.send_message, you can do view.interaction = await ctx.respond(...), then view.interaction.edit_original_response
if it's a subsequent ctx.respond or interaction.followup.send, you can do view.message = await ctx.respond(...) then view.message.edit

[white wadi]

I dont understand what you mean

[cyan quail]

i'm saying that you can assign the view.message attribute itself, to make sure it always exists

but depending on when you send the view, you might get an interaction object; if that happens then you change the edit method

[white wadi]

i am sending the view on interaction (clicking button or select something in the select menu)

[cyan quail]

so in your button's callback you're doing something like await interaction.response.send_message i presume?

[white wadi]

i am sending a follow up message, but thats similar

i need the interaction to edit the first message

[cyan quail]

you defer first?

hmmm

[white wadi]

first i use response to disable the view in the first message,
then i use follow up to send another message with another view

and the view used with the follow has the problem with timeouts not working well

[white wadi]

i dont know what defer means in this context

[pure jetty]

Hey y’all, probably a dumb question: I’m attempting to use the change_presence method to assign a rich presence to my bot based on what it’s currently doing (aware this is global, but it’s a private bot) and as far as I’m aware everything is done per the docs, but for whatever reason all it ever does is update the name of the Activity, all other fields (assets, timestamps, etc) appear to be ignored. Are rich presences including images and time elapsed supported by (a) bots and (b) pycord?

I can throw in the code if needed.

[cyan quail]

rich presences aren't possible on bots

[pure jetty]

Okay, was getting to that conclusion, so they seem to be limited to just name and description, right?

[cyan quail]

ignore me, if it's followup then all you have to do is view.message = await interaction.followup.send etc. etc.

yeah just the standard statuses

you can do stuff like watching/listening/streaming but that's it

[pure jetty]

Okay sweet, thank you! Was wasting a lot of time on it and figured it probably works for normal users.

[white wadi]

this doesnt work, what it does is when the first view times out, it edits the secod-followup view

[proud mason]

convert into int first and then add 1

number2 = int(number + 1)

you are adding 1 to number and then converting to int

but number is a string and + is acting as the concatenation operator

see the brackets

int(number) + 1 should convert number to an integer and then add 1 to it

yeah

[rugged lantern]

??

just use +=

every time i open this channel

i always see someone

asking for the most basic help

[lethal hare]

Is there a way to add options to a select menu based on who executed the command?

I made a thread for this, but if there is some kind of quick documentation available or something I figured I could ask here

[meager mica]

something similar is what i did

class Dropdown(discord.ui.Select):
    def __init__(self):
        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",
            min_values=1,
            max_values=1,
            options=options,
        )```

[lethal hare]

I've figured it out since I posted, and its pretty similar!

costumeView = discord.ui.View()

    if len(user_closet['paints']) != 0:
        paintSelect = discord.ui.Select(placeholder="Pick your Lackey's color", min_values=1, max_values=1, disabled=False)

        paintSelect.add_option(label="Black", value="black")
        for item in user_closet['paints']:
            paintSelect.add_option(label=item.capitalize(), value=item)
        costumeView.add_item(paintSelect)

[meager mica]

hey guys i was wondering what react messages permission name is i cant spell it good enuph to find it in docs

wait i found in source code lol

[floral leaf]

Anyone can help me so I can use on_interaction and slash commands created with @bot.slash_command()

[silver moat]

use await bot.process_application_commands(interaction) in on_interaction

[floral leaf]

So I just have to put this single line in on_interaction and everything after this Code line works and my slash commands too? And thank you

[lethal hare]

My desired flow for this command is this: >User executes command --> They are presented with an ephemeral menu to select certain things, which is deleted upon completion --> based on those selections, the bot responds to the original message with a result non-ephemerally.

My issue right now is that when I use ctx.respond and the selection menu is deleted, the response message says "The message was deleted", as it is responding to the previous message and not the original command

Any way I can fix this?

[full basin]

Without relevant code, can't help.

[lethal hare]

   async def doneCallback(interaction):
        with BytesIO() as image_binary:
            generateLackey(ctx.author.id, lackeyChoices).save(image_binary, 'PNG')
            image_binary.seek(0)
            await interaction.response.defer()
            await ctx.respond(file=discord.File(fp=image_binary, filename=f'{ctx.author.id}s_lackey.png'))

    doneButton = discord.ui.Button(style=discord.ButtonStyle.primary, label="Done!")
    doneButton.callback = doneCallback
    costumeView.add_item(doneButton)

    await ctx.respond(content="Enter details", view=costumeView, ephemeral=True)

This is about as much as I can minimize without sending the entire thing

[full basin]

Why are you using ctx.respond inside a View callback

[lethal hare]

Because when the final message is sent, I want it to show the command like

Libra used /COMMAND
[final image]

Which this obviously doesnt do, what SHOULD I be using in the view callback?

[full basin]

Im confused cause you have no ctx in a view callback

You only receive interaction

So you be responding to interactions with interaction.response.send_message

What you want to do is edit the original message

[lethal hare]

It's the ctx from the original command, available from the scope the function is declared in, the same one the "enter details" is using

[full basin]

So it should be interaction.response.edit_message

[lethal hare]

The message is ephemeral though, can I edit an ephemeral message to be non-ephemeral?

[full basin]

OK, that's awful.

[lethal hare]

How is it supposed to be done

[full basin]

No.

[lethal hare]

hence why im stuck

Is this not possible

[full basin]

You must send a second respond or just don't make it ephemeral at all n

There's no other option

[lethal hare]

What is the proper way to send a second response?

I dont want to reply to the ephemeral menu, because other users cannot see that

[full basin]

.

If you don't want the reply thingy

You'd just send a normal message. But you must pong the interaction

Or it'll "fail"

[lethal hare]

To other users though it will say "This message is unavailable" instead of "Libra used /command" because that first response was ephemeral

[full basin]

Yes

Refer to above messages

[lethal hare]

So just to confirm: Having a second interaction respond to the original command once the first response was deleted is not possible

[full basin]

You can send a second response. It just doesn't fit your needs or having it display "Libra used /command"

Just don't make the first response ephemeral

[lethal hare]

The first response is a menu I dont want others that did not use the command interacting with while the user that issued the command is doing so

This seems like it would be a common usecase, that or I am thinking about this completely wrong, which is probably the case. lol

[full basin]

You can run internal checks to prevent that

[lethal hare]

Ah I see

[full basin]

You just run a quick check before doing all the callback

[loud holly]

shouldn't there be select as a param too?

or is it only for classes

[full basin]

Or override on_interaction and run the check there to prevent the callback from being called

[lethal hare]

I'm having to do this a little fucky because the options inside the select menu are generated on a per-user basis, so each one of them is it's own interaction that assigns to a dict on callback (lackeyChoices)

which is another reason that menu is ephemeral

Users with more access will have more options

[loud holly]

I see right

[lethal hare]

Im just going to edit the original menu and leave it ephemeral

unfortunate though, wouldve been neat

[loud holly]

is this a select or button object?

nvm it says button

[lethal hare]

Yep thats the "submit" button

Takes all the data from several submits and sends them to the generation function to send

[loud holly]

can you send in the costumeView as well pls

[lethal hare]

I know this likely isnt the best way to do this, but I was having trouble using selections generated per-user like this

open to suggestions

[loud holly]

I presume you don't know much about classes?

[lethal hare]

I thought I did, but if there’s a better solution using them i missed it hard

[loud holly]

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

[lethal hare]

I read these docs, but in every every example of selection options being generated they are hardcoded in the class definition, which is why i started declaring them outright like i did in the snippet

[loud holly]

it's a bit difficult to like follow the code especially without classes, but if you want all ur messages sent to be ephemeral, you can do that easily with classes

you can use the

interaction.response # once and then it is 

interaction.followup.send # same like the above and can be used ephemerally

[lethal hare]

The reason I didn’t use classes is because i coudlnt figure out how to dynamically declare selection options using them based on what user called the context

[loud holly]

you can compare it in the __init__ and create the object using self

[lethal hare]

ah okay

i’ll give that a shot

[loud holly]

def __init__(....)

  if self.user == "":
    self.add_view(Select(...)
  else: 
      ....

[lethal hare]

What’s slipping me up the most is how the options are declared inside the decorator on the documentation

[rugged lantern]

lil bro needs to learn what a decorator actually does

[lethal hare]

great commentary norman

thanks for the help @loud holly i’ll figure out how to write this the right way

[subtle jay]

Can bots go live/share screen?

[silver moat]

nope

[subtle jay]

dang

thanks for responding though

[silver moat]

ok

[deft sandal]

I feel dumb but I want to save an attachment to a specific file:

this doesnt work cause I need an "os.pathlike" object?

how would I convert the string I currently have to os.path?

[patent escarp]

How do I record audio in a voice channel?

https://github.com/Pycord-Development/pycord/blob/master/examples/audio_recording.py
I'm aware this exists, but I'm getting errors like:
OpusNotLoaded
So then I add py import discord discord.opus._load_default() #or discord.opus.load_opus() to the code, and get one of two results: py Required Positional Argument: name OpusNotLoaded

[deft sandal]

Use sinks

[patent escarp]

The code example above does use sinks of the user's choice

[hollow drum]

hey guys, how i can make a command that returns the replied message if exists?

[patent escarp]

@client.event
async def on_message(message):
  if message.content == "I did it":
    await ctx.send(":white_check_mark:")```

[hollow drum]

i mean getting the message instance

not replying

when i reply to a message with a command, get that message instance

[round rivet]

message has a reference attribute

[patent escarp]

^

[hollow drum]

thanks

[patent escarp]

@round rivet, any thoughts on this? The example listed on github seems to be running into an error

[round rivet]

opus has always been a weird one

do you have PyNaCl installed?

[patent escarp]

Yes i do

[round rivet]

opus is supposed to come bundled with the library

we never figured out why that error occurred

[patent escarp]

I see. I noticed that there are some differences comparing to discord.py, though I have not touched with discord.py in a while, that I don't know if that still works

So does this mean discord packages still can't really record audio from Discord?

[round rivet]

They can

There's just something wrong with your installation

[rose flare]

view=discord.ui.View

options=[]
for i in range(10):
    options.append(discord.SelectOption(
        label=i[0],
        value=i[1]
    ))

view.add_item(discord.ui.Select(
    placeholder = "Select",
    options = options
))

await ctx.respond(view=view)

how do I add a callback for this?

I looked at the Select Menus guide, but that needed a custom class

[simple canopy]

make a callback function and assign it to select

[rose flare]

which I'd be fine with, but I need to add the options dynamically

[rose flare]

how do I "assign" it?

[simple canopy]

.docslink discord.ui.Select.callback

[winter condor]

https://docs.pycord.dev/en/stable/api.html#discord.ui.Select.callback

[simple canopy]

well, it seems like subclassing is the way to go

[rose flare]

so I have to subclass discord.ui.Select?
ok I'll give it a try

[rose flare]

subclassing discord.ui.Select was a bad idea
but I managed to subclass discord.ui.View in a way that works
thank you!

[full basin]

Read the error

Reading the error will help you solve the problem.

then learn basic python

"List indices must be integers not strings"

[rugged lantern]

learn python

[full basin]

And learn how to read errors, because your "solution" doesn't even solve the error

[slender shuttle]

It's on my VPS, what's the best way to solve it?

[uneven beacon]

anyone knows how can i fix this?

[deft sandal]

ive also been getting these kinda of errors but it doesnt seem to affect how my code runs

[uneven beacon]

well mine doesnt .. it runs but the command doesnt work

[rugged lantern]

deal with it :(

[deft sandal]

not rly sure then

i dont really get it but can i ask for an example?

[verbal dawn]

Dropdown selected value is just disappearing after editing the message. How could I fix it?

[dry echo]

discord.errors.HTTPException: 413 Payload Too Large (error code: 40005): Request entity too large
when sending an image (23MB) in on_message() and send them again

[verbal dawn]

Here's the code (It's also inside of command not class)
https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/979392900993519646/1035570578628812891/unknown.png

[dry echo]

view=self

[silver moat]

# select menu decorator
@discord.ui.select(..., custom_id = "select1")

# 2nd select menu
@discord.ui.select(...)
async def second_select_menu_callback(self, select, interaction):
  def check(interaction):
    return interaction.custom_id == "select1"
  await bot.wait_for("interaction", check=check)

[silver moat]

Don't edit the view then

[verbal dawn]

Then submit can't be enabled

[verbal dawn]

i have updated the code 💀

[silver moat]

I believe this is a discord limitation since there is no way to preset selected values for a Select Menu

[verbal dawn]

Yeah, but if a user selects the dropdown value and it edits it should stay and not clear it

[silver moat]

instead of editing the message you can send another message

which wouldn't update the select menu

[verbal dawn]

Expected & Reality

[silver moat]

nvm you actually can

https://docs.pycord.dev/en/master/api/data_classes.html#discord.SelectOption.default

https://docs.pycord.dev/en/master/api/models.html#discord.SelectMenu.options

you should get the values and edit the select menu so that those are selected

@verbal dawn

[verbal dawn]

I see

Could I get a small example?

[silver moat]

select = discord.Select(..., options = [discord.SelectOption(..., value = "option1")])

async def callback(interaction):
  for value in select.values:
    if value = "option1":
      select.options[0].default = True

and don't forget the edit the actual view

[verbal dawn]

it's always setting it on "discord"

[cobalt tangle]

maybe try a if statement, whereas if the first dropdown input is empty, dont execute

[verbal dawn]

Update: It was fixed but very complicated

[full basin]

Isnt a for loop easier

[verbal dawn]

I am dumb alr?

[lost lodge]

Hey guys!

How can read the Audit Log and filter it?

[valid ibex]

hey guys

how can ı uninstall pycord

because ı need install it clearly

why

[lost lodge]

not shure but i guess it's pip uninstall py-cord

[fervent cradle]

pip uninstall py-cord?

[young bone]

lol

[valid ibex]

ı tried it and here its

what should ı write

[lost lodge]

y

[young bone]

That is basic python

Read the error

[lost lodge]

enable it

[young bone]

^

[lost lodge]

no

wait is your bot verified?

[young bone]

use discord.Intents.all()

[lost lodge]

do you have enabled all what i did?

ok

don't you what i did but your welcome ::)))

How can read the Audit Log and filter it?

[valid ibex]

guys ı install library

then ı write import discord

but ı cant

do you know what can ı do

[lost lodge]

send code

[young bone]

Show the pip list

[valid ibex]

just this

[lost lodge]

do pip list in the terminal

[valid ibex]

then?

[lost lodge]

send the output

[valid ibex]

there are too many things

[lost lodge]

send it

else we can't help you

[solemn idol]

So how do I create a help menu using embeds?
The help command itself should be callable using /help
Very important I am creating the help menu in a cog called help.py

[lost lodge]

dm me

[lost lodge]

good

so that's good, you have installed it correctly

can you hower over the error and send a screenshot of the message that the idea sends

[valid ibex]

there is no error

[lost lodge]

and why you need help?

[valid ibex]

here is need be green

if its imported but here ı cant import it

[lost lodge]

you use vs code?

[valid ibex]

yes

[solemn idol]

try saving the file and reopening it in vsc

vsc doesn't directly show the imports as imports on the first time.

[valid ibex]

ı tried it

[solemn idol]

You using windows?

[valid ibex]

yes

windows 10

[solemn idol]

then open cmd

[lost lodge]

try to ignore the error

[solemn idol]

and type pip list
and show me the entire list it gives you

[valid ibex]

here its @solemn idol

[valid ibex]

if ı cant import it how can ı write codes lol

[lost lodge]

sometimes the idea is just stupid, that hapens sometimes

it's only an real error if you get a console error

[valid ibex]

can you send me a little code

for test it

[lost lodge]

first try it by your self

[solemn idol]

huh

strange...

try installing python as an extension for vsc if you havent already

maintained by microsoft

[valid ibex]

ı have already

[valid ibex]

here is the result

[solemn idol]

well that seems rather odd...

and this doesnt work in your terminal either?

perhaps its just vsc messing it up

for some reason

[lost lodge]

ok idk if that helps but create a venv:
python -m venv <project_path>

and reinstall pycord

[valid ibex]

ı do it many times

but not working

ı cant understand anything

[lost lodge]

firs install the venv

[solemn idol]

try pip installing discord

[lost lodge]

@valid ibex could you create a thread in #969574202413838426 and ping me after you created, this is a deeper problem

[valid ibex]

ı cant

[solemn idol]

oh wait a minute

I dont see pycord itself

I see py-cord but not pycord

[verbal dawn]

it should be py-cord

[solemn idol]

I have em both

[verbal dawn]

not pycord or anything that could cause conflict like having py-cord and discord at same time

[verbal dawn]

try removing pycord

[lost lodge]

no

pycord is something alse

[verbal dawn]

oh yeah

[solemn idol]

Woah

wait a minute wtf

[verbal dawn]

probably conflict

between discord.py and py-cord

[lost lodge]

i would try using the venv

[fervent cradle]

any idea how to fix this

ok fixed

[valid ibex]

ı cant create button inactive

[rotund current]

Some of my users have noticed that Pings from my bot have been slow, or occasionally not going through at all. Is this a bot issue or a discord issue.
The pings are part of a message in a @<###> format.

[safe stirrup]

Is there a way to add a hyperlink to an embed footer?

Using fields is for squares! :( lol

[solemn idol]

nope, embed footers do not support clickable links at all, only text

[safe stirrup]

Darn.

[solemn idol]

But

I dont know if theres a limit to fields, so you could always add another field

which could contain your hyperlink

[safe stirrup]

True but the hyperlink is for a copyright page I'm required to add to this particular content so I was hoping to make it not so profound

[solemn idol]

Well you could add it in the author section

since that part does support links, not directly via the usual way of creating hyperlinks in an embed, but they do support it.

[merry briar]

how can you understand why cog doesn't work?
and then it starts, and then after the changes it does not want and it is not clear why

[sage galleon]

For a command option decorator type as int is there a way to limit the int given from 1-10 for example? Aside from handling it inside the command itself

[silver moat]

max/min_value

[fervent cradle]

if commands.Bot is only for prefix commands then why is it so much used in cogs and also contains slash commands and stuff

[silver moat]

?tag discord.Client

[obtuse junco]

No tag discord.Client found.

[fervent cradle]

?tag client

[obtuse junco]

discord.Client # just for events
discord.Bot # events + slash/user/msg commands
commands.Bot # above + prefixed commands

[meager mica]

whats the event for updated channel overwrites

[cyan quail]

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

[meager mica]

oh thanks

[solemn idol]

well depends on your error message ig.

[spark patrol]

What page do you recommend for learning Python?

[fervent cradle]

https://guide.pycord.dev/introduction#learning-resources

[proud mason]

Is it possible to create a restart command for my bot?

[fervent cradle]

how can we format one liner for loops, like in the code below:

llist_embed.add_field(name='Activated Licenses', value='\n'.join([n for n in alic]))

i want to bold each element in the list but idk how to, i dont want to use it in the value directly coz then the format will apply to all items in the list except for the last one

[buoyant pier]

how i can check if member has timeout?

[proud mason]

Member.communication_disabled_until

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

and

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

[proud mason]

one liner for loops are similar to normal loops

#Normal loop
b_list = []
for x in a_list:
    y = some_func(x)
    b_list.append(y)

#The same can be achieved using list comprehension and for loops
b_list = [some_func(x) for x in a_list]
#This is usually faster and more efficient 

[buoyant pier]

thanks

[proud mason]

actually Member.timed_out would be better lol

[lost lodge]

Anyone know how to get the audit log of a member and how to filter it?

[proud mason]

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

you can specify a member there

[lost lodge]

in the examples is a user=guild.me this is the ctx.author wright?

[proud mason]

guild.me is the bot as a member
ctx.author will be the one who ran the cmd

use the one according to your objective

[lost lodge]

ok

[rapid geode]

is there any module to make paginators with buttons?

[rare ice]

discord.ext.pages

[lost geyser]

How does Member.is_on_mobile() work? Because currently, it always shows me false, if i completely quit discord on pc and just use my mobile device.

[rare ice]

https://docs.pycord.dev/en/stable/ext/pages/index.html?highlight=discord ext pages

[rare ice]

You may need to fetch member to get the updated status

[lost geyser]

from the guild?

If i fetch from the guild, it still doesnt update...

[rare ice]

No get the guild, then fetch the member from the guild

[lost geyser]

i tried, but the status of the member is still 'offline'

ah maybe i need an intent...

[rare ice]

Are you fetching from the guild?

Oh well that will do it

You should be enabling all intents

if you have them

[lost geyser]

nope, still offline

Do i need to activate any special scope before inviting the bot?

and this is my code

guild = await self.bot.fetch_guild(ctx.guild.id)  # type: ignore
member = await guild.fetch_member(ctx.author.id)  # type: ignore
print(member.name)
print(member.status)

[rare ice]

bot and application.commands if you use slash commands

[lost geyser]

i use them already

[rare ice]

send me your full main.py file (token retracted)

[lost geyser]

well its a cog and the files are really long

could you specify what you need? Most of the stuff has nothing to do with this command

    @faq.command()
    async def list(self, ctx: discord.ApplicationContext, page: int):
        '''Get a list of all FAQ-Tags'''
        amount = 20
        tags = self.data.get_all_tags(amount, amount * (page - 1))

        # tabulate data
        lines = tabulate(tags, 1, 100)
        formatted = "\n".join(lines)

        guild = await self.bot.fetch_guild(ctx.guild.id)  # type: ignore
        member = await guild.fetch_member(ctx.author.id)  # type: ignore
        print(member.name)
        print(member._client_status)
        print(member.is_on_mobile())

        await ctx.send_response(f'\`\`\`{formatted}\`\`\`')

This is the command. (I want to know the status for the tabulate function, to make a table look better on mobile)

and main.py basically is this:

intents = discord.Intents.all()

bot = commands.Bot(intents=intents)

...

# run bot
loader.load(bot, 'cogs', ['test'])
bot.run(os.getenv('TOKEN'))

Do i need to activate any special permissions in the guild?

Duh. Fetching the member from the guild does not work. it will always return offline. If i get the member from the context directly, it does work. My problem in the beginning was just that i havent had any intents, but i needed them.

Anyways, thanks for your help @rare ice !

[fervent cradle]

well i know that, but i dont understand how do you format every element in a list, like i want to bold all the items in the list, but i am unable to do that

[proud mason]

uhh pretty simple, but depends on where you wanna do it
" ".join([f"**{word}**" for word in this_list])

[fervent cradle]

oh alr, tysm

[proud mason]

yeah

wait no

i think its drop table

brb

https://www.w3schools.com/sql/sql_drop_table.asp

no?
DROP TABLE test will delete the entire table

if you only want to delete certain rows then use delete statement
https://www.w3schools.com/sql/sql_delete.asp

https://www.w3schools.com/sql/sql_ref_drop_column.asp to drop only certain columns

[meager mica]

is there an event for category create i tried searching for on_category and catagory but i dont see anything about it

[silver moat]

on_channel_create

[meager mica]

oh its considered a channel

[silver moat]

you would be looking for CategoryChannel

[meager mica]

ohhhh

ty ty

[meager mica]

on_guild_channel_create right?

[silver moat]

yea

[meager mica]

alr

[lethal hare]

Anyone know why I might be getting this error:

[young bone]

read the error

[lethal hare]

Confused you with someone else

still unhelpful, ill figure it out myself

[young bone]

do you have a button with more than 10 in a label?

numbers or letters

[lethal hare]

I've had buttons with less than 10 characters in the label before, so i'm confused why that would be an issue

Like if I want a button that says "Done" that's 4 characters but completely relevant, right?

[silver moat]

please send code

[lethal hare]

def createSelectMenu(self, itemType):
        selectOptions = []

            )

        selectMenu.callback = selectCallback

        self.add_item(selectMenu)

Function inside of a discord.ui.View class

I wasnt using .add_option before but I was trying to cover all my bases to track the error down

Here's the button

@discord.ui.button(style=discord.ButtonStyle.primary, label="Done")
    async def submitLackey(self, button, interaction):
        with BytesIO() as image_binary:
            generateLackey(interaction.author.id, self.lackeyParams).save(image_binary, 'PNG')
            image_binary.seek(0)
            await interaction.response.defer()
            await interaction.edit_original_message(content="", file=discord.File(fp=image_binary, filename=f'{ctx.author.id}s_lackey.png'), view=None)

[young bone]

1. content="" it cannot be emtpy
2. why do you use ctx.author.id in a button?

[lethal hare]

It wasnt empty, i removed that when I pasted

[silver moat]

could you show full traceback?

[lethal hare]

for sure one moment

I think the issue is in where I am generating my option labels, itemdata['name'] might be throwing an undefined/none or somthing, but the "more than 10" error is confusing me on that

[silver moat]

can you print the view

[lethal hare]

sorry could you elaborate?

[silver moat]

print(view)

[lethal hare]

yeah sure

[lethal hare]

sorry for the delay,

<class '__main__.costumeView'>

[lethal hare]

good catch lol

[silver moat]

your select menu options don’t have a label

[lethal hare]

I've hardcoded it to be label="label" and this error still occurs

[silver moat]

hmm

[lethal hare]

I think it has something to do with my value, because I didnt hardcode that, I just did and its working, ill look into the function that it gets that data from, thank you

[round rivet]

In data.components.1.components.0.options: Must be 10 or more in length.

[silver moat]

what’s in the view’s __init__

[round rivet]

the fuck

[silver moat]

I agree

[lethal hare]

im pretty confused lol

[lethal hare]

ill send the whole thing in a bit, im gonna go crazy if I dont go take a walk or something, glad its as confusing to you as it is to me tho

[thin stag]

is there a way of having a slash command's option be either one type of input or another? for example, having input be either a str or a discord.Attachment

[silver moat]

it has to be a string xor discord.Attachment

[thin stag]

Yes

you can kiiinda get the same effect with having a string option and discord.Attachment option with both not being required

but that also allows both as inputs and neither as inputs

[west pebble]

some_var: str | discord.Attachment?
Or a union?

[thin stag]

Extension 'countrybot.cogs.utility' raised an error: TypeError: Invalid usage of typing.Union

Nope

[lethal hare]

@silver moat here's the entire class, I'm at a loss as to why this is happening

[meager mica]

is it possible to see who created a channel using on_guild_channel_create i also looked at channel_create audit log action but i didnt see anything there either

[west pebble]

You would use discord.AuditLogActions

[meager mica]

Alr never used audit log actions yet so that'll be fun

[west pebble]

its pretty easy

[lethal hare]

Yall what am i doing wrong here, its claiming its getting unexpected key args

[thin stag]

do you need privileged intents for User.display_avatar?

[rugged lantern]

why do u have a callback inside another function

[silver moat]

I think it has something to do with the view initiating before the select menu is added.

[lethal hare]

[gleaming falcon]

The Guide for Views seem to focus on a single dropdown when using the decorator https://guide.pycord.dev/interactions/ui-components/dropdowns#usage-syntax

Is there a way to define multiple in this fashion (even though I don't really like them), or would I have to create separate classes? If I intend to have five dropdowns, do I really need five separate classes?

Or is 'select_callback' tied to that specific dropdown and I can just make multiple methods?

[silver moat]

you can have 5 dropdowns in one view

[silver moat]

^

[gleaming falcon]

Okay, the method name wasn't clear that it was custom and not an override of a specific callback class. Thank you

So, dumb question, will the callback be run when each dropdown is touched, or can I have a submit that processes it all then? (Although I am guessing I can't have five dropdowns with any other UI input, so maybe that's moot anyway)

[silver moat]

they work just like buttons

[gleaming falcon]

Trying to create a UI that approximates a cron so people can schedule recurring reminders, but might have to get a little more creative/less complicated

[rapid geode]

what might be causing this error?

[gleaming falcon]

Damn. Limited to 25 in a dropdown, so a Day selector is out.

[full basin]

Conflicting libraries.

[thin stag]

I have some code in a loop. Anything that is an io method is accessing a sqlite3 database stored locally. Will having a loop like this with many iterations and many database reads and writes slow down my program?

    @tasks.loop(minutes=30) # make this lower if it doesnt affect performance
    async def advance_date(self):
        for guild_id in io.get_guilds():
            try:
                rpdate = io.load_rpdate(guild_id)
                channel_id = io.load_rpdate_channel(guild_id)
                guild_channel = await self.bot.fetch_channel(channel_id)
                last_posting = io.load_last_rpdate_posting(guild_id)

                if dt.datetime.now() - last_posting > dt.timedelta(days=1):
                    await guild_channel.send(embed=discord.Embed(title=f"The RP date is {rpdate}.", color=discord.Color.blurple()))
                    io.save_last_rpdate_posting(dt.datetime.now(), guild_id)

            except Exception as e:
                if isinstance(e, RPDateNotPostedError):
                    await guild_channel.send(embed=discord.Embed(title=f"The RP date is {rpdate}.", color=discord.Color.blurple())) 

                    io.save_last_rpdate_posting(dt.datetime.now(), guild_id)

Also, I do plan on upgrading the database reads/writes to aiosqlite. Assume this code is the same but with asyncio database reading and writing

on each iteration of the loop, it reads through the database containing the ids of all the guilds the bot is in, and then iterates through that list, where it loads data from a few entries. It then compares if one of the timestamp values is greater than 24 hours, and if it is, it will send a message and save the timestamp of when it sent that message

[rapid geode]

any idea how to fix this?

[gray aurora]

sorry I should have probably just posted in here instead of making a new thread: https://discord.com/channels/881207955029110855/1036095812893147136

using version 2.2.2

[rapid geode]

already did thanks for advicing :)

[gray aurora]

oh actually I can replicate with just a simple example:

class Example(commands.Cog):
  def __init__(self, bot_: discord.Bot):
    self.bot = bot_

  greetings = SlashCommandGroup("greetings", "cog greetings")

  @greetings.command()
  @option("test", "enter text")
  async def hello(self, ctx: discord.ApplicationContext, test: str):
    await ctx.respond("some response")

AttributeError: 'str' object has no attribute '__name__'. Did you mean: '__ne__'?

removing @option allows the type to be inferred correctly, but I'd expect @option to work here?

I guess as a workaround using type annotation seems to work here using discord.Option

[fervent cradle]

why its not useable bruh

(i am not using class)

how do i block out token output from eval cmd

like if someone uses the eval cmd to get bot token, they get some other stuff instead

[round rivet]

don't make a public eval command please

[fervent cradle]

no i still want the protection if one of the devs run it

or if the eval gets hacked or something wrong happens

[round rivet]

there's no foolproof way to do it

as an example, jishaku tries to filter it but fails when the send method is called directly

[fervent cradle]

anyone?

[fervent cradle]

oh

where do i put on_timeout?

Yes ?

If u used bridge

[misty yew]

ok, thanks

[wind thunder]

Np

[misty yew]

Can I use MissingRequiredArgument, MissingPermissions from discord.ext.commands with bridge?

[silver moat]

yes

[misty yew]

In cog file I change @commands.command for @commands.bridge_command and have the error. Why?

[young bone]

bridge.bridge_command()

also you need a bridge bot

[misty yew]

What does it mean "bridge bot"?

[young bone]

https://guide.pycord.dev/extensions/bridge

[misty yew]

Oh, thanks

How can I use has_permissions with bridge? (for example: @commands.has_permissions(administrator = True))

[silver moat]

just like normal

[misty yew]

But when I used as default command, it work

[silver moat]

what's not working?

does it always fail?

[misty yew]

If I use command as slash, it didn't respond

always

[silver moat]

on_application_command_error is the slash command error handler

[silver moat]

did you put the permission decorator below the bridge command decorator?

[silver moat]

why is commands underlined?

[misty yew]

because I import from py file

[silver moat]

?

[misty yew]

I import from discord.ext import commands from global_sets.py, not in file, where my code
In my code from global_sets import *

[misty yew]

Whats wrong?

[silver moat]

ah, it's actually bridge.has_permissions

https://docs.pycord.dev/en/master/ext/bridge/api.html#discord.ext.bridge.has_permissions

[silver moat]

could you update?

[misty yew]

How can I update?

[silver moat]

?tag install

[obtuse junco]

1. Uninstall discord.py or any other forks of discord.py you might have with the namespace discord.
   python -m pip uninstall discord.py discord -y

2a. Install py-cord
python -m pip install py-cord

2b. Update py-cord
python pip install -U py-cord

Installing other builds:
Note: You need to have git installed. Use ?tag git to find out how to install git.

Updating the module to master branch (unstable):
pip install -U git+https://github.com/Pycord-Development/pycord

[misty yew]

Updated. The error is gone, but command don't work 😦

[sweet tiger]

how would I send a message on an exception (for example: I want the bot to send "You are not the owner" when the "NotOwner" exception is raised

[silver moat]

you can use the on_command_error for text-based commands and on_application_command_error for slash commands

[silver moat]

which one(s) don't work: slash command, text-based, xor both

[misty yew]

Other commands work, but in one slash command don't work

[misty yew]

Maybe problem in await ctx.send()?

[silver moat]

yeah, it should be ctx.respond

[misty yew]

How can I send a message to a member?

[silver moat]

DM them?

[misty yew]

yes

[silver moat]

await member.send()

[misty yew]

And slash command will work?

[silver moat]

yes

well, my understanding of that question is "will it work for slash commands?"

[sweet tiger]

my bot is responding to commands properly but "discord.errors.NotFound: 404 Not Found (error code: 10062): Unknown interaction" is being raised

[silver moat]

send code

[sweet tiger]

nvm i fixed it, forgot to delete a line

[sage eagle]

is there any jishaku fork for pycord (with slash command support)?

[young bone]

you can just use jishaku

[sage eagle]

nah

[young bone]

?

[rugged lantern]

do u expect there to be a fork of a fork for pycord that itself is a fork of what jishaku is forked from?

[sage eagle]

i need it to work with slash commands

i have no message intents rn

[rugged lantern]

unlucky

[sage eagle]

i already sent a intent request its not approved yet

so i need slash command support

so is there any fork with slash command support?

[misty yew]

If you want, you can use bridge commands (slash, text-based, etc)

[sage eagle]

i cant

i have no message intents

[young bone]

why?

why do you not enable it

[sage eagle]

my bot has over 100 servers

i cant just enable it

[young bone]

why?

[sage eagle]

i just cant

i need to send a request to get them

[young bone]

no?

[sage galleon]

Is there an argument I can pass to view.disable_all_items() to only disable the view items for a single user?

[sage eagle]

wdym

[thin stag]

https://docs.pycord.dev/en/stable/intents.html
@young bone read this

[sage eagle]

thanks

[thin stag]

np

[young bone]

?

[sage eagle]

i think ill just port it myself xd

[young bone]

you can just use message contents without a bot verification

[sage eagle]

no

i have over 100 servers

[young bone]

try it...

[sage eagle]

i cant bro

i need intents for it

[silver moat]

no, it's global

[sage eagle]

squid

hey

do you know any jishaku fork with slash command support?

[silver moat]

jishaku

[sage eagle]

its not working with py cord i think

[silver moat]

no bob made one

https://github.com/BobDotCom/jishaku

[sage eagle]

could i get link?

does it support slash commands?

[silver moat]

no

[sage eagle]

but thats what i am asking for

[sweet tiger]

how would I edit a channel's name

currently im getting "AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'edit'"

@tasks.loop(seconds=60)
async def my_loop():
    channel = bot.get_channel("1036353629382254713")
    await channel.edit(name=f"Players Online - {onlineUser}")

[lost geyser]

How do i access the response to a slash command? I want to add a reaction and later delete the response, but if i try

msg = await ctx.send_response(...)

the message gets send, but msg.message is Null

[silver moat]

get_channel takes an int, not a string

[sweet tiger]

ah ok

[misty yew]

How can I get guild id in slash command? I try ctx.message.guild.id , but error discord.errors.ApplicationCommandInvokeError: Application Command raised an exception: AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'guild'

[silver moat]

ctx.guild.id

[valid ibex]

@silver moat sorry for ping ı cant import the library

ı already pip install it

[silver moat]

restart your IDE

If you are using Pycharm, click Python Packages on the bottom left and add py-cord to dependencies

[sweet tiger]

edited it to an int, now i'm getting discord.errors.NotFound: 404 Not Found (error code: 10062): Unknown interaction

[silver moat]

also make sure it's py-cord, not pycord

[silver moat]

[lost geyser]

Thanks for the answer, but do not need the original message, but rather the response from the bot. But i found out that

msg = await ctx.interaction.original_response()

does work.

[silver moat]

try adding an await ctx.defer() at the beginning of that method

[silver moat]

the original message is indeed the response.

[lost geyser]

oh well than that would be even more convenient. Thanks!

This is a shortened version of my error handler. For some reason, when it responds with the "Unknown error!" embed, the message is not ephemeral, despite ephemeral being true. Furthermore, every other error message is ephemeral. Does anyone know what might be happening here?

Here is an example of this happening:

[sage galleon]

Should I be retrieving a message ID in on_raw_reaction_add(payload) from a DB that was created from a command? I feel like its unecessary and there's another way I should be doing it. The message that will be reacted to is created in a command and I need that message ID inside of on_raw_reaction_add(payload)

[full basin]

Is flagify deffered?

[fervent cradle]

are the chances good? or i am doing something wrong

common has to be 60 or 100

(literally no idea if thats relateable to pycord)

[silver moat]

seems reasonable

[thin stag]

Yes

[meager mica]

can i get message id of someone using a slash command with ephermal

i want report message link to go where they reported but not show there message

[silver moat]

ephemeral messages are stored on Discord's server for 15 minutes.

so if the 15 minutes have elapsed, then the message would be deleted

[meager mica]

according to vsc .send returns None

so i cant make jump link

[silver moat]

Ephemeral messages are designed so that only your bot and the author can see the message.

[meager mica]

but i should still be able to get message id and it will link to around that

[silver moat]

it will link to nothing

[meager mica]

let me show

gonna make link to this

#998272089343668364 message

it scrolls to where it took place

[silver moat]

ok?

[meager mica]

so is there a way i can get message id of slash command message

[silver moat]

ctx.message.id

or msg = await ctx.original_message(); msg.id

[fervent cradle]

so 100 common and other ones are just 40 25 15 etc it will be rare to get the mythic

[fervent cradle]

You should add "Morbiulistic" and make that 1/1e8

[grizzled sentinel]

How weights work is it is like tickets in a hat

So a, b, c with the weights 4, 2, 1 means
A is 4 times more likely to be selected than C, and twice as likely as B but only a 4/7 chance overall.
B is twice as likely as C but half as likely as A but overall has a 2/7
Hope that makes sense

[rugged lantern]

did they ask for this explanation or

[silver moat]

let's draw a tree

[proud pagoda]

Is there any way to get a slash command in a subgroup without having to walk through all the commands in the SlashCommandGroup? I tried using bot.get_application_command("parent child") but it just returns None

[graceful mason]

How do I fix that AttributeError: 'Interaction' object has no attribute 'author'

[silver moat]

interaction.user

[graceful mason]

oh, thanks!

[graceful mason]

why this doesn't work?

@option(required=True, name="name", description="asd")```
the @real compasstion doesn't display the name and the description

[rare ice]

Use discord.Option

.docs discord.Option

[winter condor]

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

[severe comet]

If I want to store the usernames and userIDs of people who leave the server, would you guys recommend a MySQL/MariaDB/PostgreSQL server or should I go with a NoSQL implementation for the future stuff? Basically I'm trying to figure out which type of database has the most expandability for future projects

While of course having a decent async driver

[silver moat]

any should be fine

[gleaming falcon]

Isn't there a method that extracts Mentionables (users/roles) from a string (not necessarily a Message), or did I make that up in my head?

Answer: raw_mentions and raw_role_mentions in discord.utils, it appears.

[fervent cradle]

is it possible to use commands.cooldown decorator for events

[sage eagle]

no

is there a way to use wait_for message event without a message intent?

[sage eagle]

its up to you

[fervent cradle]

Ohhh now i get it how it works

[sage eagle]

how can i get arguments/options from my slash command using ctx?

[verbal dawn]

Can I go above 25 choices inside of 1 choice?

[lost geyser]

Is there a way to disable a slash_command without making a check?

[mellow tinsel]

Is it possible to create a discord.ui.Select menu with a working callback without having to subclass it?

[cyan quail]

yes py select = discord.ui.Select(...) async def some_func(interaction): ... select.callback - some_func

[misty yew]

Why I can't use ctx.message.created_at.timestamp() with slash commands?

[mellow tinsel]

ohh yeah i hadn't thought of that thanks!

[grizzled sentinel]

because when a user runs a slash command it does not create a message.

[wet ore]

Hey all! Is it possible to detect if a user is currently 'Priority speaker' while in a voice channel? VoiceState has a suppressed boolean but it's for stage channels only, trying to capture when a bot should start recording audio.

[silver moat]

you would want to look at autocomplete

[errant crane]

Here's the slash autocomplete example.

[verbal dawn]

thanks!

this isn't supported by discord yet, Modals are a great alternative however

Gotcha, thanks. I just remembered them demoing them and wasn't sure if they were out yet. Unfortunately, modals have a couple of issues, but if they're the only option, they're the only option!

[pulsar spear]

Is it possible to have a button (sent with an embed) callback in the same function where it was sent from? So that I can edit an embed using an existing variable within a function?

[silver moat]

you can create an instance of the button in the command. example next

async def command(ctx):
    button = discord.ui.Button(label=“Hello”)
    async def callback(interaction);
        pass
    view = discord.ui.View()
    button.callback = callback
    view.add_item(button)
    await ctx.respond(“Hi!”,view=view)

[pulsar spear]

Ah interesting! Thanks, I'll give this a shot once I'm home from work

[left flume]

just looking to confirm you can only have 1 interaction response, from an interaction component? Couldn't have a button edit a message and launch a modal?

2. yes

[winter condor]

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

[silver moat]

... isn't a response

[left flume]

ty

ahh so that could be used to edit the view, to disable the button, and the response interaction could launch the modal?

[silver moat]

yes

[left flume]

I couldn't get edit_original_response to work(kept getting webhook error), but this did, does that seem right? to be clear its editing an ephemeral message send by another interaction response.

@discord.ui.button(label='Change Bid', style=discord.ButtonStyle.primary)
    async def change_bid_callback(self, button, interaction):
        await self.message.edit(content="Changing your bid", delete_after=3)
        await interaction.response.send_modal(BidModal(self.item, self.ctx))

[silver moat]

it should work

[naive heath]

modal can have only 5 inputs?

how can i use on_interaction’s interaction.data

I want to know ctx.author in on_interaction

so…

any one can help me

[neon bramble]

interaction.user?

[unborn veldt]

no

in on_interaction

but i want to know ctx.author

isn’t interaction.user

[neon bramble]

???

you don't get a context object in that event

[native gorge]

@unborn veldtIt's the same

[unborn veldt]

i think is interaction.data

but

i don’t know how to use this

[neon bramble]

you want to get the user that triggered the interaction right?

[native gorge]

user in interaction it's the same as author in context

[unborn veldt]

and then?

how to use

[native gorge]

def on_interaction(interaction):
    interaction.user

[unborn veldt]

.

[unborn veldt]

What I want is to know the user of slash_command in on_interaction

can i do this?

🤔

Owo(?

[native gorge]

user id? user name? user # number? you can get all of that with interaction.user

if this make it easier for you, just do this:

author = interaction.user```

[unborn veldt]

what is author

how did it get here

@native gorge

[native gorge]

I'm trying to get what you mean...

[unborn veldt]

ok

[native gorge]

What I did is defining author as interaction.user, because interaction.user has the same clases of ctx.author

[unborn veldt]

A=slash_command

i do not want a.author to press button

[midnight wadi]

i cant seem to make the bot prefix work, the mention works but not the prefix, even if i just put the prefix. I had this exact same code on another bot with another version of the pycord from github and it was working

bot = commands.Bot(
        command_prefix=commands.when_mentioned_or('d!'), activity=activity, status=status,   help_command=None, intents=intents, case_insensitive=True)

[native gorge]

Let me see if I understand the problem.
So I member use a slash command, and on_interaction is not triggered by that, but on_interaction is triggered when a user pressed the button and you want to on_interaction be triggered with the slash command, right?

[unborn veldt]

almost

[native gorge]

try putting```py
command_prefix='d!'

[unborn veldt]

but slash_command.author can’t use button

Mean ‘a’ use slash_command but ‘a’ can’t use button.

[midnight wadi]

with command_prefix='d!'

with the mention

[native gorge]

beside "a" any other member can use the button?

[gleaming falcon]

The on_guild_[un]available events refer to Enabling/Disabling Invites?

Or does pausing the server not throw any event? I guess it's a guild edit event

[pale knot]

How do I get the emoji id from a reaction

For example this, how can I get the emoji ID

If I right click -> Copy ID, it just copies the message id

[gleaming falcon]

Hm. That might be a regression; I don't remember if it ever copied the ID

Two ways:
You can right-click and "Copy Link" or "Open Link". The filename is the snowflake ID
Escape your emoji by putting a backslash in front of it

escaping
would be \:troll~1: which will print
<🧌945379443508150363>

lol stupid discord, but I think you get the idea

Programmatically from a reaction is a little easier. on_reaction_add is passed a Reaction object.
reaction.emoji is an Emoji object, so reaction.emoji.id is the ID.

Only works for custom emoji, not built-ins; emoji will simply be the str emoji character

[pale knot]

Thanks, right click open link works 👍

[gleaming falcon]

Back on Enabling/Disabling server invites. It seems that this action is not passed into the Activity Log. Is there any way of determining who changed the setting?

[swift rivet]

I have a bot that posts an embed and some buttons.
The left and right -most buttons cycle through each page of the leaderboard by getting the next page's data and editing the original message with an updated embed.

Whenever I press one of the next page buttons, it seems to work for the first couple of pages, and then I get an error saying "This interaction failed." with error code 10062.

I have no idea what's causing this error and the weirdest part is that it breaks at seemingly random intervals. Sometimes I can press the button all the way until page 6, sometimes it breaks on page 3.

Is it something to do with like...discord rate limits stopping the bot from editing the message? Or maybe something to do with the interaction timer for the button?

[full widget]

very likely you're getting ratelimited on how quickly you can edit the embed, and then by the time pycord is finished waiting for the limit the interaction has expired

you could solve this by deferring the interaction before attempting to edit the embed, that way the interaction won't expire so quickly

[pulsar spear]

I'm also getting webhook error when using it

From docs
Raises
HTTPException – Editing the message failed.

[rugged lantern]

you can't spam buttons no

[swift rivet]

im not trying to spam the button, im just trying to click it all the way from page 1 to page 9 but it always breaks somewhere in the middle

[swift rivet]

ill give this a shot, ty

[pulsar spear]

I fixed it by using

interaction.response.edit_message()

[left flume]

the problem there is, you can only have one interaction.response so in my case I was wanting to disable a button, or edit an embed, while also launching a modal

I used self.message.edit() to get it to work

[rotund current]

So I am having a problem with my bit, occasionally when a slash command that loops through data is run, the bot will go offline. Is this because of the interface with the heartbeat? The function is async, so shouldn't this not interfere with the heartbeat? Shouldn't pycord automatically attempt a reconnect?

[rugged lantern]

depends on what kind of data you're getting. is it api calls?

[rotund current]

It's a SQL database call, and then loopinf through the data, but it's using async Sqlalchemy

[rugged lantern]

dunno then, open a post and provide relevant code

[rotund current]

A few different loops have done it, here is one of them, probably the simplest loop that's caused it, so easiest to post the code

[unborn veldt]

can’t use

[meager mica]

hey so whats the function to get message history in channel

[full basin]

[native gorge]

Make sure that when you declare a button disabled is false

[meager mica]

i found the name for some reason i thaught it was channel.messageable history but ig its just history

[unborn veldt]

?

Doesn't this work for everyone?

[full basin]

All buttons are disabled False by default

[unborn veldt]

only slash_command user can’t use

[silver moat]

https://docs.pycord.dev/en/master/api/application_commands.html#discord.Option.max_value

[vagrant scroll]

Why this works only in 1 server?

[full basin]

Because while loops block the code

[severe comet]

Anyone know how I can pass in an async function result as a parameter in another async function?

Basically I have an async function that outputs a list and want to use that list as my optionchoice for a slash command

[errant crane]

Here's the slash autocomplete example.

[silver moat]

@severe comet

keep in mind that you still have to validate the inputs after they are inputted.

[round rivet]

gonna need to see more code to tell you anything

there's nothing obviously wrong in what you've shown us so far

[severe comet]

tyty \o/

[round rivet]

I don't see anything wrong

What's the issue

[vagrant scroll]

It works perfectly in my server, but in other servers, what the bot is supposed to do after the user reacts, doesnt work

[round rivet]

does it have perms?

manage messages?

[vagrant scroll]

Thanks, that was xd

why is this thing here

If the command is executed for a long time, then discord sends - "The application did not respond". How can I increase the waiting time for command execution

how is it correct?

[full basin]

You don't receive discord.Interaction, you receive discord.ApplicationContext

So you just do ApplicationContext.defer and then ApplicationContext.respond and the library will manage what to do.

Do you use discord.py?

thanks

discord.Member i believe

[fallow hawk]

anyone know why my variable wont update through the button callback? i've tried some random things and not sure why it wont update

[rugged lantern]

because that is not actually the callback

[ivory harness]

can someone point me in the right direction on which branch i need to get for python 3.11 support?

[fallow hawk]

wdym it’s not the callback?

everything else works

[rugged lantern]

ok and u've printed in the supposed callback?

[fallow hawk]

wdym print

yes i have a print statement

to see if it works

and it does

You'll need to install the master branch

?tag install

[obtuse junco]

1. Uninstall discord.py or any other forks of discord.py you might have with the namespace discord.
   python -m pip uninstall discord.py discord -y

2a. Install py-cord
python -m pip install py-cord

2b. Update py-cord
python pip install -U py-cord

Installing other builds:
Note: You need to have git installed. Use ?tag git to find out how to install git.

Updating the module to master branch (unstable):
pip install -U git+https://github.com/Pycord-Development/pycord

[fallow hawk]

ik python

[rugged lantern]

this is really basic python, u should know show your button setup

[fallow hawk]

yeah ik it’s basic i’m just rusty and never rly got familiar with async functions

[silver moat]

async is basic

[west pebble]

10 its
20 this
30 basic

[fallow hawk]

yeah ig so

[rugged lantern]

calling async functions is basically the same as normal functions. provide code or nobody will help you as it is not possible

[fallow hawk]

here is my code, i had to cut out random parts since it wouldn't let me send it

would it be better to put the stopp variable in the command and not the __init__?

[rugged lantern]

why do you have one variable as a self var and one as not? remove the variable that is not in the instance of the class

[fallow hawk]

not sure

i deleted it and its fixed

[rugged lantern]

btw use interaction: discord.Interaction instead of ctx in your callback for better typehinting

[fallow hawk]

oh ok thank you

[west pebble]

Typehinting is magic. It should be forced.

[fallow hawk]

yeah it really is magic

[silver moat]

Pylance has some setting somewhere

Quick question because I've never specified only two intents, but does discord.Intents.all() attempt to load all intents Discord has, or all intents that the bot is enabled for?

Probably a question for the Developers: Is it possible to convert the async def received_message(self, msg) inside class DiscordVoiceWebSocket to a bot.event?

Inside received_message contains the below code:

    elif op == self.SPEAKING:
        ssrc = data["ssrc"]
        user = int(data["user_id"])
        speaking = data["speaking"]

What I need is the speaking var as this contains the op code (1) for normal speaking, (5) a user who is a priority speaker inside a voice channel. I'm thinking if i use it as an event i'll be able to action what i need in there, any help/ ideas would be appreciated, thanks!

So, I have a aiosqlite instance in main.py, how do I use that in cogs?

async def on_ready(self):

            self.add_view(TicketCreateView())
            self.persistent_views_added = True
    setattr(bot, "db", await aiosqlite.connect("level.db"))
    await asyncio.sleep(3)
    async with bot.db.cursor() as cursor:
        await cursor.execute("CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS levels (level INTEGER, xp INTEGER, user INTEGER, guild INTEGER)")
    print("Bot is ready!")
``` (my on_ready function)

[cyan quail]

assign that instance as a bot var/function (e.g. bot.db = ...) then you can access it from self.bot

[fringe socket]

Here's what sucks about this channel sometimes. Its only active during the time when I'm asleep.

:(

[cobalt tangle]

hm

so bot.db = Bot()?

bot() is my bot class

[fringe socket]

No

[cobalt tangle]

then how?

[fringe socket]

bot.db = whatever

[cobalt tangle]

whatever=?

[fringe socket]

and then call the variable through self.bot

[cyan quail]

as per your original question...

whatever your aiosqlite instance is

[cobalt tangle]

ok

bot.db = await aiosqlite.connect("level.db")?

[cyan quail]

sure that works

it's likely just their unicode character order

you can use ord to get any character's unicode value, and chr to do the opposite

[cyan quail]

do you have the message content intent

i´ve got all intents

oh i see

the else is when it's a slash command
