Basic Pycord Help (Quick Questions Only)

[still helm]

yes

[cyan quail]

but a slash command's invocation isn't a message

you can't really put any extra args in them either

without having them predefined

[bitter mantle]

?tag message-content

[still helm]

ahhhh i understand. ok i am trying to add an extra message to split from that

[cyan quail]

you could just add a 3rd catch-all arg which would hopefully work

[bitter mantle]

whats weird about the message being empty is that sometimes it returns the actual message successfully and then at other times just fails

[cyan quail]

in prefix commands, ctx, *, var works to make the final arg a kwarg which will capture the rest of the message as your variable

[bitter mantle]

don't have message intent enabled on my bot until i saw pycord 5

[cyan quail]

so theoretically if you did that then in the slash command it would do the same

[still helm]

hate it. now my command is outdated and i have to wait 😄

[cyan quail]

i think you can just run it again or reload your client

the outdated message is related to your client's command cache, not necessarily on discord's end

[still helm]

ah okay so strg+r reloads it. nice to know

ok works for now. but there is another question. in the prefix command i can edit the message with mess.edit(content="..." ).
Is there a way to do this with the response?

[proud mason]

i think you use interaction.edit_original_response

[still helm]

interaction? not ctx?

[proud mason]

you get it from ctx.interaction

[cyan quail]

if it's in a slash command, ctx.edit is the shortcut method for it

[mellow umbra]

is there a way to retrieve the interaction object given its id?

[cyan quail]

uhhhhhh i don't think there's a cache for them

because they're so short lived

[mellow umbra]

I've been having my bot respond by editing its initial interaction message

but now I want to be able to store the initial messages and access them later

[cyan quail]

then store the message id

interaction.edit_original_response only works for 15 minutes

[still helm]

ok it´s working now. Thanks @proud mason and @cyan quail 🙂

[cyan quail]

allgood

[mellow umbra]

I've tried get_message on the original message id but it seems to only return None

interaction.edit_original_response only works for 15 minutes
I guess I should send a proper message then, I can get_message on that right?

[cyan quail]

get_message isn't ideal because that checks the local cache

which won't persist over restarts and is capped to 1000 messages by default

[mellow umbra]

I'm assuming I have to write my own get_or_fetch for messages?

I know there's a get_or_fetch for users

[cyan quail]

well there's a universal get_or_fetch but you don't need to unless you definitely need the message content

just get the channel object, then use channel.get_partial_message to generate a PartialMessage object
https://docs.pycord.dev/en/master/api/models.html#discord.TextChannel.get_partial_message
this acts as a way to interact with the message without making an extra API call, assuming you're sure it still exists
https://docs.pycord.dev/en/master/api/data_classes.html#discord.PartialMessage.edit

[mellow umbra]

doesn't look like that worked, I'm going to try with a new message instead of editing the original response to the slash command

[vivid plaza]

@proud pagoda

[grizzled sentinel]

@vivid plaza don't ghost ping. Really don't ping helpers at all someone will help you when they have time.

[vivid plaza]

Okay Thanks

[fervent cradle]

My slash autocompletes have been working just fine until recently, suddenly now there is the error In data: Field "_choices_type" is required to determine the model type., if I look at https://github.com/Pycord-Development/pycord/blob/master/examples/app_commands/slash_autocomplete.py they also just return an array of strings the same way I do, I am confused pls help

Also the /example autocomplete of the toolkit bot here doesn't work, so I am assuming its a general issue? Did I miss something?

[mellow umbra]

this is giving me Unexpected <class \'TypeError\'>: Object of type File is not JSON serializable

is this me or the library being wrong

images are jpeg images in bytes form

[meager heron]

I'm not sure if this is the same issue, but my autocompletes have suddenly stopped working. No code updates on my end. There might be some Discord issue atm?

[fervent cradle]

Yeah exactly the same for me

[meager heron]

Hrm

Pycord version?

I'm on 2.2.0, and it looks like 2.2.2 is out (no announcement in #library-updates, though)

[fervent cradle]

I'm on 2.2.0 as well

[meager heron]

(Nothing in the changelog looks related, though)

I may as well try updating

[midnight wadi]

how can u use a slash command and return an embed?

[fervent cradle]

Still the same error

[midnight wadi]

like this

[meager heron]

Same

[vivid plaza]

Can You help me in my problem?

If yes, Here's my problem

[meager heron]

No, sorry

[mellow umbra]

Why doesn't PartialMessage.edit have a file/files parameter?

[meager heron]

Are you sure you have pycord installed and not discord.py?

(And even if you are sure: pip3 install py-cord just to be safe)

[gleaming falcon]

Did Autocomplete randomly break for anyone else?

discord.errors.HTTPException: 400 Bad Request (error code: 50035): Invalid Form Body
In data: Field "_choices_type" is required to determine the model type.

(Edit: Discussion in #general suggests yes)

[rotund current]

I am having an issue where a modal functions correctly, and the callback happens and functions when the button is clicked. But I get an error message in the modal that "something went wrong" and the modal doesn't close

I have gone through the documents and looked at examples, and I can't see what would be causeing the issue.

[rotund current]

Update. I have stripped the modal down to the bare minimum, and it still occurrs, but it does not trigger the on_error() code of the modal

[round rivet]

discord being discord

[cyan quail]

oh wth yeah

[safe stirrup]

If you're going to have commands, you need to add from discord.ext import commands and then do bot = commands.Bot()

Which I see you're creating a command.

[silver moat]

there is nothing wrong with Spookz’s code

please type pip list and show output

[safe stirrup]

Since when do you not have to import the commands module

[rugged lantern]

if it's only slash commands

[silver moat]

since py-cord 2.0a

[rugged lantern]

you don't need it if you use discord.Bot()

[safe stirrup]

So what's the purpose of commands module then

[silver moat]

text commands

[rugged lantern]

afaik, events

[safe stirrup]

Eh, okay.

[rugged lantern]

and that

[silver moat]

and more permissions

and checks

etc

[safe stirrup]

:L

[vagrant scroll]

Is it possible to send two images in one embed? Something like this, I know that this is working for some people

[fervent cradle]

I think they combing the 2 into 1 image probably using pillow

https://pillow.readthedocs.io/en/stable/

https://www.reddit.com/r/discordapp/comments/raz4kl/finally_a_way_to_display_multiple_images_in_an/ There is also this but I believe this is only for discord.js

[full basin]

That's exactly the code for it lol

[vagrant scroll]

Idk why it doesnt work for me, im using the latest pycord version and i uninstalled discord.py before

[full basin]

It's not a pycord thing. Its discord

Only works when viewing on pc

[rotund current]

I fixed it

[native gorge]

I have a question, I'm not sure if it's a stupid one but: Why use cogs? What advantages do cogs give you?

Is this:

# file 1
bot = commands.Bot()
bot.load_extension('file_2.py')

# file 2
def setup(bot):
    bot.add_cog(CogClass(bot))

Better than this in some way?

# file 1
bot = commands.Bot()

# file 2
from file_1 import bot

If there is an advantage I would like to know it to use it properly

[rugged lantern]

so you don't have to have everything in one py file

it helps to organize commands, functions etc to your needs

it is not needed but it helps a lot to keep track of everything

having a 10000+ line file to scroll through every time you make a change is never optimal

[native gorge]

I mean, in both examples I use 2 files

[rugged lantern]

yes and i used my own example

[full basin]

But you didn't answer their question lmao

[rugged lantern]

i did

i told them what advantages it gave. not particularly to their example because it was such a niche and bad example

[full basin]

They're asking what's different from using cogs than importing the bot instance themselves

[rugged lantern]

i answered their first two questions

[native gorge]

You're right, but... in the context I showed... there is no advantage... it's practically the same

[rugged lantern]

but why would you use the improper one?

one is designed to work multi filed and the other one is not

[native gorge]

You can work multi files with both

[native gorge]

Why is improper?

[rugged lantern]

yeah but cogs are specifically made to work flawlessly with multiple py files. importing from your main is not meant to be done that way afaik

[native gorge]

I mean... python libraries work like that

[gleaming falcon]

Kind of a silly question, but what's the preferred way of setting intents?

If I do something like

intents = discord.Intents.default()
intents.members = True
# etc

then the IDE complains about the intents object being read-only. Are there better ways to set these flags?

[rugged lantern]

no. not all work like that. sure, you import the actual library, but you rarely import an instance of an object if an alternative to it exists. use cogs. there are no benefits to not doing so.

[native gorge]

I do this

intents = discord.Intents.none()
intents.members = True
intents.guild_reactions = True
intents.guilds = True
intents.guild_messages = True
intents.message_content = True

[rugged lantern]

isn't that basically all? it is not

[gleaming falcon]

Right .. I know that works, it's just "wrong" from an IDE standpoint because the object is supposedly read-only.

[rugged lantern]

no clue. i just told pycharm to shut up about it

[native gorge]

I mean, internally they work like that

[rugged lantern]

why do you think cogs exist then? go ahead and import all you want. it is improper as you'll have to import it into all files for no reason when a better solution exists. ofc the source code includes it- but that does not mean it is equal to adding to an already existing object. you're not writing a library- you're writing a bot with a library that have a built-in handler to make multi-file managing easier. do whatever tf u want but you're wrong in that it is equal just because a library imports its modules (ofc it does; that is not the same as you importing an object from that library as opposed to using the appropriate object builder)

"omg the library uses import, therefore i should use it too instead of making my life so much simpler", give me one reason for why you choose to die arguing over this rather than using cogs? is it that horrible to use it?

[silver moat]

intents = discord.Intents(guild_messages = True, etc...)

is my way for pycharm to stop screaming

[native gorge]

I'm not fighting, I want to know what advantages the way you think it's better have and... I don't see the advantage, I just see that they're practically the same

[rugged lantern]

except for that it is not

one is meant to be used and the other is not

[silver moat]

cogs can be dynamically (re/un)loaded

literally worth it

[native gorge]

Now, that is a good reason, and a difference

[silver moat]

also now you can brag to your friends you use oop

[native gorge]

Are you spying me? The programming friends I have, literally program in C++

[silver moat]

.... maybe

[rugged lantern]

isn't c++ somewhat oop?

[native gorge]

Yes... I got confused, in fact now that I see the c++ syntax it's not even the same, and I only remembered #include <stdio.h>

[silver moat]

probably for usaco

[gleaming falcon]

Stupid python question

def ret_tuple():
  return 'a', 'b'

a, b = ret_tuple()
# 'a' 'b'

This works. But

if (a, b := ret_tuple()):
  print(a, b)

does not..? It stuffs the entire tuple into b

Edit: Apparently a known limitation of unpacking with the "walrus" operator. Womp womp

[young bone]

If you are in the main why do you use self?

[cobalt tangle]

for self.persistant_views_added

[young bone]

?

[cobalt tangle]

how do i do it without self

[fervent cradle]

self is a parameter used in classes to represent the object itself, if you want to refer to the client use the variable in which you instantiate it (e.g. bot).

[cobalt tangle]

oh

ty

[cobalt tangle]

does ctx.message return the updated msg if i edited the msg before

or it only sends the original msg

[fringe socket]

You want to add errors? You should be using C++

[cyan lark]

Bruh. No one need use c++ LOL?

[fringe socket]

r/wooooosh

[cyan lark]

I guess you dont know about what i did

Understanding

[fervent cradle]

anyone?

[fringe socket]

How do you add a description to an argument?

[vivid plaza]

wdym?

[fringe socket]

As in adding a description to a part of a command like:

/command this:

[graceful mason]

How do I add callback script to view.add_item(button)?

When someone clicks the button

[cobalt tangle]

um

[fringe socket]

Wut

[cobalt tangle]

button = Button(label="Hi")
async def callback(interaction):

[fringe socket]

[cobalt tangle]

^ solution ig, read the guide

https://guide.pycord.dev

[graceful mason]

but the guide doesn't show how to create dynamically created buttons

only static buttons

[cobalt tangle]

what

idk what's the difference in that

[fringe socket]

Just make it edit the view?

On calback

[graceful mason]

huh

[fringe socket]

[graceful mason]

I guess I can override the interaction_check function

[graceful mason]

for example if I want to show different amount of buttons each time the command is run
with different labels, emojis and colors

[cobalt tangle]

Oh

u mean random stuff?

[graceful mason]

yeah something like that

[cobalt tangle]

use the random module to pick stuff from a list

have a list of styles, labels, etc

random.choice

styles = [discord.ButtonStyle.danger, discord.ButtonStyle.green, etc]
choice = random.choice(styles)
button = Button(label="Hi", style=choice)

@graceful mason

[graceful mason]

ah, I know that, but thanks
just wondering about how to add callback function to that next

[cobalt tangle]

just add a async def callback(interaction): beneath it

[graceful mason]

I thiink it only works with @ syntax used for button creation tho

[cobalt tangle]

make sure there arent other callbacks called callback, if so name it async def callback1 and so on

[cobalt tangle]

no?

[graceful mason]

okay, I'll try

[cobalt tangle]

ok

[cobalt tangle]

its called subclass btw, not @ syntax

[rugged lantern]

by doing button.callback = callback?

[rugged lantern]

it's called a decoration btw

[cobalt tangle]

ik

[vivid plaza]

hell nah where

which part of docs?

@rugged lantern

[rugged lantern]

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

[vivid plaza]

Thanks !

yeah mb I feel dumb rn

code:

[cobalt tangle]

do u have message content intent

[fervent cradle]

can i somehow save that without saving 2 times because if i save below it will only write 10 prestiges

[vivid plaza]

what do you mean?

[cobalt tangle]

show me ur commands.Bot like

line*

[vivid plaza]

bot = discord.Bot()

[graceful mason]

almost works, shows the button but no callback

class MyView(discord.ui.View):
  pass

@client.command(description="") # this decorator makes a slash command
async def button(ctx): # a slash command will be created with the name "ping"
    styles = [discord.ButtonStyle.danger, discord.ButtonStyle.green, discord.ButtonStyle.blurple]
    button = discord.ui.Button(label="Hi button", style=random.choice(styles))
    async def callback(interaction):
        print("button clicked")

    v = MyView()
    v.add_item(button)
    await ctx.respond(f"Pong!", view=v)```

[vivid plaza]

not commands lol

[cobalt tangle]

ok

show me

[vivid plaza]

bot = discord.Bot()

[cobalt tangle]

do button_callback

[cobalt tangle]

thats it?

[vivid plaza]

yeah

just this

[cobalt tangle]

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

[vivid plaza]

okay. that's it ?

[graceful mason]

still nothing

[cobalt tangle]

no

wait

[vivid plaza]

I enabled right now message.content intent in the website

[cobalt tangle]

maybe add it via @ syntax

[cobalt tangle]

ok now try

[vivid plaza]

okay wait

[cobalt tangle]

i was abt to tell u that

[vivid plaza]

still the same error

[cobalt tangle]

hm

[vivid plaza]

let me give you all the func code

[cobalt tangle]

ok

do async def

[vivid plaza]

its a function in a command

[cobalt tangle]

in a cmd?

[vivid plaza]

let me give u an example:

this def check is for this :

await bot.wait_for('message', check=check(message), timeout=60)

[cobalt tangle]

hm

wait a sec

[vivid plaza]

Okay !

[cobalt tangle]

slash cmd aint a message

how can u get a msg from slash cmd?

[vivid plaza]

wdym?

[cobalt tangle]

there is no ctx.message for slash cmds

its only for prefixed cmds?

[vivid plaza]

oh

[cobalt tangle]

ctx.command returns the commannd

command*

if the cmd was /help, ctx.command would return help

[vivid plaza]

and what should I do ?

integration ?

integration.message

[cobalt tangle]

one sec

[vivid plaza]

ok

[cobalt tangle]

gtg sorry, maybe someone will help, just wait

search in the server for ur error via Ctrl+F

[vivid plaza]

hm okay thanks

[graceful mason]

ah, I did it by

button.callback = v.checkbutton```
and 
```py
class MyView(discord.ui.View):
    def __init__(self, *items: discord.ui.Item):
        super().__init__(*items)
        self.user = None
        self.clicked_button = None

    async def checkbutton(self, interaction : discord.Interaction):
        if interaction.user.id == self.user.id:
                self.clicked_button = interaction.custom_id
                await interaction.response.send_message(self.clicked_button)

[cobalt tangle]

btw u couldve just subclassed button in MyView as i told u

[fervent cradle]

is it possible to add selection in paginator

[cobalt tangle]

Um @vivid plaza, I saw that msg, and ctx.message will be None in slash commands

That's what I told u

[vivid plaza]

and how Can I fix it

[cobalt tangle]

Well just tell me what ur trying to do here

[vivid plaza]

okay. wait

[cobalt tangle]

Don't send code, explain to me what u want to do

[vivid plaza]

yes yes

I want to make a command that sends a message, then in the same command I want to wait for someone with a specific id to send a specific message and if he sends, the command continue

[cobalt tangle]

What will be in that message

What is that specific msg

[fervent cradle]

.

[vivid plaza]

I tried to make it: message.content == "the full message"

but it didn't work

[cobalt tangle]

I don't use paginator

[fervent cradle]

cool

[cobalt tangle]

That's for on_message

[vivid plaza]

oh

[silver moat]

https://docs.pycord.dev/en/stable/ext/pages/index.html#discord.ext.pages.Paginator.add_item

[cobalt tangle]

Wait

[vivid plaza]

and the full message is :

[cobalt tangle]

Try

def check(message):

Instead of ctx

[cobalt tangle]

And then do message.content

[silver moat]

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

@vivid plaza should be what you are looking for

[vivid plaza]

Let me Check

[fervent cradle]

can i get example please

[vivid plaza]

exactly what I did

[silver moat]

is it that hard to run a function

[cobalt tangle]

What didn't work in that

[vivid plaza]

the traceback is:
discord.errors.ApplicationCommandInvokeError: Application Command raised an exception: AttributeError: 'ApplicationContext' object has no attribute 'content'

[cobalt tangle]

Try def check with msg again

[silver moat]

could you send full code/traceback

[cobalt tangle]

And send me error

[vivid plaza]

.

[silver moat]

full traceback

[vivid plaza]

sure

[cobalt tangle]

That error says that ur using ctx.content

'ApplicationContext'

[silver moat]

what’s your current code?

[vivid plaza]

wait

[cobalt tangle]

def check(author):
    def in_check(message):
        if message.author.id != author.id:
            return False
        else:
            if message.content == "content":
                #do smth
            else:
                return False

[silver moat]

no need to tell me to wait. just send it, if you will.

[cobalt tangle]

await bot.wait_for("message", check=check(ctx.author), etc

[cobalt tangle]

Try this

[cobalt tangle]

With this

[rugged lantern]

my eyes

[vivid plaza]

@silver moat here's my full code

[rugged lantern]

please use functions

[silver moat]

check shouldn’t have parameters

check=check

[cobalt tangle]

It can? It has worked before for me

[silver moat]

not check=check(args)

[cobalt tangle]

v2.0 update or smth?

[vivid plaza]

if check=check()

can I do this?

[silver moat]

no just check=check

[vivid plaza]

okay wait let me try

[silver moat]

it shouldn’t’ve

[vivid plaza]

now the message isn't detected

[silver moat]

also please name parameter/variables correctly.

[vivid plaza]

the message is

[silver moat]

?tag message-content

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

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

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

Docs: https://docs.pycord.dev/en/master/api.html#discord.Intents.message_content

[vivid plaza]

yup I added intents

[cobalt tangle]

Yup told him first

[silver moat]

the mention is incorrect

because it is actually shown as @viral fox

[vivid plaza]

my tag is @vivid plaza

[silver moat]

where 123456789 is the user’s ID

[fervent cradle]

whats wrong

[silver moat]

you can also iterate through msg.mentions

[vivid plaza]

@vivid plaza or @SIDAL.py#0001

[cobalt tangle]

@vivid plaza

[vivid plaza]

what will it change

[cobalt tangle]

Try @vivid plaza

[vivid plaza]

with # or without?

[silver moat]

It doesn’t matter either way since none of those would work

[cobalt tangle]

Maybe try this

message.mentions works too

[vivid plaza]

like I add message.mentions == "@SIDAL.py#0001"

[cobalt tangle]

um no

[silver moat]

no

[vivid plaza]

then?

[cobalt tangle]

message.mentions is a list

Use a for loop

[silver moat]

message.mentions[0].id == your_id

[fervent cradle]

.

[silver moat]

outside of buttons list

[vivid plaza]

so,

and message.mentions[0].id == 994347081294684240

[silver moat]

?tag tias

[obtuse junco]

https://pycord.dev/tias

[cobalt tangle]

Lol

[vivid plaza]

💀

didn't work + no traceback

[cobalt tangle]

Hm

[fervent cradle]

ok

[graceful mason]

is there a button.click event?

to return any button click

lmao

[silver moat]

on_interaction includes all interactions

also it is better to use callback

[vivid plaza]

@silver moat

[silver moat]

return message.content.startswith(f"**:moneybag: | {message.author.display_name}, has transferred ") and "@hot stirrup" in message.content and message.author.id == 282859044593598464 and price[0][0] in message.content

any of these could be the problem

please print their values out

[cobalt tangle]

1 question

[vivid plaza]

the message is :

so It's in bold !

[cobalt tangle]

Nvm

[vivid plaza]

I added ** at the start

[cobalt tangle]

It is in bold

[vivid plaza]

the problem can't be the .startswith

[round rivet]

it can though

print it out and make sure

[vivid plaza]

hm ?

[silver moat]

no colon is needed since that's not an independent clause

[cobalt tangle]

Just print it tbh

[vivid plaza]

print everything out ?

[cobalt tangle]

Yes!

[silver moat]

yes, or use a debugger

?tag oop

https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tutorials/understanding-class-and-instance-variables-in-python-3
https://docs.python.org/3/tutorial/classes.html

There's a difference between a class and an instance. Think of it like this:

• A class is like a blueprint, or a concept. It defines what something should have, but it's not the same as actually having it.
• An instance is the 'realized' version of the class, it contains everything that the class defines should be on it, but you can actually access and interact with these features.

Let's consider the Cat. We know a Cat has a name and an age, but Cat.age won't work, because Cat isn't an actual cat, it just represents the concept of a cat. It's like asking "What is the age of a cat?" - it doesn't make sense, because we need to have an actual cat.

mimi on the other hand is an instance of a Cat - it has everything a Cat should have. Maybe mimi was constructed, like mimi = Cat("Mimi", age=4), or maybe mimi was retrieved from somewhere else, like house.cats[0], but in any case, it has everything we need, and mimi.age will rightfully give us 4.

There are many situations in Object Oriented Programming where you will need an instance instead of a class to perform an operation properly (in fact, you almost always need an instance instead of a class), and these cases will usually be documented.
You should learn a good amount about Object Oriented Programming before working extensively with Pycord.

[silver moat]

@fervent cradle

[vivid plaza]

So I print these

[silver moat]

in this case, Paginator is a class while paginator is the object.

[silver moat]

yes

[cobalt tangle]

yes

[vivid plaza]

in message.mention[0].id it gives this traceback

discord.errors.ApplicationCommandInvokeError: Application Command raised an exception: AttributeError: 'Message' object has no attribute 'mention'

[silver moat]

mentions

[cobalt tangle]

Mentions

[vivid plaza]

oh sorry

[cobalt tangle]

Not mention

[silver moat]

how do you copy and paste code wrong 💀

[cobalt tangle]

lol true

[vivid plaza]

I didn't copy paste 💀

[cobalt tangle]

Bruh

[vivid plaza]

discord.errors.ApplicationCommandInvokeError: Application Command raised an exception: IndexError: list index out of range

[cobalt tangle]

Then there's no mentions

[vivid plaza]

still in message.mentions[0].id

[cobalt tangle]

In that msg

[vivid plaza]

yeah cuz it has to be the second message

[cobalt tangle]

@vivid plaza just add a on_msg event

[vivid plaza]

that i want to check

[silver moat]

no

[cobalt tangle]

And print every msg from probot

[silver moat]

that's because you are listening to all messages

so yeah that's working as intended

[vivid plaza]

wdym ?

[cobalt tangle]

Ur ignoring an exception

[silver moat]

wait_for waits for an on_message event that satisfies check so all messages will be ran through check. This can be resolved with a try-except clause

[vivid plaza]

Oh So I use

try:
  print(message.content.startswith)
  print(message.mentions[0].id)
  print(message.author.id)
  print(message.content)
except IndexError:
  #what do I put here

[silver moat]

return False

[vivid plaza]

oh okay thanks let me try

[silver moat]

isn't startswith a method, not an attribute?

[cobalt tangle]

Um

txt = "Hello, welcome to my world."

x = txt.startswith("Hello")

print(x)

This works

[round rivet]

no like

you aren't calling the method

[vivid plaza]

this is the Output

[cobalt tangle]

It is a method

[round rivet]

print(message.content.startswith) will do nothing for you

[vivid plaza]

the first "<bullit-in method " is for the first probot msg

[silver moat]

what is price[0][0]?

[vivid plaza]

the first and the second

[vivid plaza]

its a variable

price is a variable

inside of the variable there is c.fetchall()
(its from sqlite3 db)

[silver moat]

I meant to ask for its value

[vivid plaza]

for this one the value of price[0][0] is 1

[silver moat]

now could you print the values of the conditional/predicates as well?

[cobalt tangle]

@vivid plaza wait, In ur code, it's message.author which returns the name and tag

But in the msg it's only ur name

[meager heron]

Is ephemeral message deletion already live in 2.2.2, or is it still upcoming?

[cobalt tangle]

Oh

[round rivet]

it works

[vivid plaza]

I added .display_name

[cobalt tangle]

Nvm

[meager heron]

How does one do it?

[round rivet]

delete_original_message

[meager heron]

Hm, just tried that, and it didn't work

[round rivet]

ctx.delete also works in slash cmds

[vivid plaza]

what should I do next ? @cobalt tangle

[meager heron]

resp = await ctx.respond("test", ephemeral=True)
await resp.delete_original_response()

[cobalt tangle]

Hm

[round rivet]

is resp an interaction or message

[cobalt tangle]

Maybe make probot send a particular pass code or smth at the end of the msg and check that it mentions u and the passcode is there

[meager heron]

Interaction

[cobalt tangle]

I'm pretty sure startswith() is the issue but yea

[cobalt tangle]

@vivid plaza

[round rivet]

then it should work fine

[vivid plaza]

I sent u the full msg of probot

[cobalt tangle]

one sec

[silver moat]

.

[vivid plaza]

here again @cobalt tangle

[silver moat]

e.g.
print(message.content.startswith(f"**💰 | {message.author.display_name}, has transferred "))

[vivid plaza]

wdym?

[silver moat]

like print the conditions that return true or false

[meager heron]

D'oh, turned out this venv only had 2.2.0 installed. Updating fixed it. Thanks!

[cobalt tangle]

Maybe make probot say smth like

**💰 | {message.author.display_name}, has transferred $1 to @frank cedar [213] **

And we check for that [213] at the end of the msg and for ur mention in the msg

Sorry for the ping rip

[vivid plaza]

damn rip @X

[cobalt tangle]

Anyways

We can do that maybe?

[vivid plaza]

I still don't understand

do u mean I put the return thing in a variable ?

I'm pretty sure that I can't

[cobalt tangle]

He's telling u to print whether the check returns true or false

[vivid plaza]

Yeah I know ! but how

[gleaming falcon]

If Invite.inviter is supposed to be a User, why is that None when the invite creation event is fired?

[silver moat]

print(message.content.startswith(f"**💰 | {message.author.display_name}, has transferred "))
print(message.mentions[0].id == id)
print(message.author.id == 282859044593598464)
print(price[0][0] in message.content)

@vivid plaza

[vivid plaza]

ok wait

I replace this

[vivid plaza]

by this

[silver moat]

no keep it

just extend it

[vivid plaza]

oh okay

[cobalt tangle]

intents.member?

[gleaming falcon]

They're enabled. Works in my test guild, but production guild (with same code/settings) tells me that invite.inviter is None

[vivid plaza]

discord.errors.ApplicationCommandInvokeError: Application Command raised an exception: TypeError: 'in <string>' requires string as left operand, not int

the error is in print(price[0][0])

[silver moat]

nice that's supposed to be a string

[vivid plaza]

price is an int

in the database I created it to be an int

[silver moat]

just convert it to a string

for this operation

[vivid plaza]

yeah ok

[cobalt tangle]

Finally

Took 40m to solve

I gtg

Bye

[vivid plaza]

still not solved 💀

[vivid plaza]

for me I work on this problem for 1day 🙂

outch 2 false

[silver moat]

see the problem was with startswith

[vivid plaza]

yup 💀

but It's written properly

I copy pasted the message of probot

and added things

as message.author.display_name instead of sidal.py

@silver moat

[gleaming falcon]

Sooo.. looking at the Audit Log, nobody actually created an invite, yet the event was fired? Is there some other case where Discord would send this over the wire? It's specifically on_invite_create so I wouldn't think it was anyone's invite Expiring or such.

[meager heron]

I'm back with another ephemeral message deletion question.

Let's say I have an ephemeral message with a view attached. When the user clicks one of the buttons in the view, I want to delete the ephemeral message. I've tried, in the button callback, to run await interaction.delete_original_response(), but that doesn't seem to do anything. I've also tried await interaction.message.delete(), which also does nothing.

Neither call raises an exception.

Any ideas?

[graceful mason]

How to fix this?
TypeError: Interaction.edit_original_message() takes 1 positional argument but 2 were given

await interaction_respond.edit_original_message(text[:2000], view=v, embed=embed, delete_after=delete_after_time)```

[vivid plaza]

from discord import Bot

[midnight wadi]

How can i respond with an embed to a slash command?

[vivid plaza]

python -m pip uninstall discord
python -m pip install discord

[midnight wadi]

py-cord*

right?

[vivid plaza]

yeah

[midnight wadi]

ty

[vivid plaza]

await ctx.respond(embed=embed)

@silver moat Are you here ?

[meager mica]

hey guys so i was wondering how i can get discord.abc.Snowflake so i can use guil.unban i just dont get it at all

oh it was fetch user not get user

[graceful mason]

Why is this not working?

@discord.option(required=False, name="attachment", description="test")
async def test(ctx: discord.ApplicationContext, att:discord.Attachment):```

The attachment is required and it shouldn't be

[vivid plaza]

put

async def test(ctx, att:Optional[discord.Attachment]):

[full basin]

You must uninstall the discord library. The only discord library should be PyCord

[raw gust]

Can i create slash command without a decorator?

[full basin]

You must provide a default value.

[full basin]

Why would you?

[vivid plaza]

in the prefix put /

but why would you?

[graceful mason]

okay thanks guys

[raw gust]

I feel its quiet hard to give dynamically created values to the decorator. Like translation data from the database.
Then i dont see any other way to create slash commands in runtime.

The doc string for Slash commands says "These are not created manually, instead they are created via the
decorator or functional interface." so i was guessing that a functional interface exists, but i could not find anything for this in the docs.
I already got it to work by manually creating the classes and adding it to the bot on runtime. But this obv was quiet "hacky" and had a lot of bugs.
So thats just why i ask if there is a runtime option to create Slash Commands.

[novel leaf]

That's pretty much the intended way. that warning has bugged me for a really long time, I'll consider working on a fix soon. You can open an issue for it if you'd like

[gleaming falcon]

Sure. It's relatively trivial, but if it helps, I'm open to doing so.

[raw gust]

I am sorry, but what prefix do you mean? I do not use any normal commands anymore.

[vivid plaza]

But you want "slash_command without decorator"

[graceful mason]

Why setting option description doesn't work?

Is it possible to supply a function to generate choices for option dynamically per server?

[vivid plaza]

can Anyone help me in my problem?

[raw gust]

I want to create a normal slash command. Without the wrapper/decorator. I am not sure what prefix you mean.

[vivid plaza]

I think that you can't. Maybe someone else can help you.

[raw gust]

sure thank you

[vivid plaza]

Can anyone help me in this problem:

[graceful mason]

but seriously, what am I doing wrong,
@discord.option(required=False, name="attachment", description="some cool description")
description doesn't show

[vivid plaza]

why discord.option?

Oh okay I get it nvm

can anyone help me in this problem
I want to create a function that waits for a specific person message. I created it and called it in the code that I will show you. But It doesn't want to call the function then I printed every value so I can know where I'm wrong and where I'm not
here's the code

def check(message):
            c.execute("SELECT price FROM accounts WHERE type=?", (type,))
            price = c.fetchall()
            try:
                print(message.content.startswith)
                print(message.mentions[0].id)
                print(message.author.id)
                print(message.content)
                print(message.content.startswith(f"**💰 | {message.author.display_name}, has transferred "))
                print(message.mentions[0] == 994347081294684240)
                print(message.author.id == 282859044593598464)
                print(str(price[0][0]) in message.content)
            except IndexError:
                return False
            return message.content.startswith(f"**:moneybag: | {message.author.display_name}, has transferred ") and message.mentions[0].id == 994347081294684240 and message.author.id == 282859044593598464 and price[0][0] in message.content

and here is where I call the Function:

await bot.wait_for('message', check=check, timeout=60)

The message is shown in this picture:

And here's what console print

there is Two False values that I think are:

print(message.content.startswith(f"**:moneybag: | {message.author.display_name}, has transferred "))

And the Second one is

print(message.mentions[0] == 994347081294684240)

[fervent cradle]

Hey I need some help: await interaction.delete_original_response() spits out the error "Unknown Webhook". The interaction is triggered when a user selects an element in the dropdown list, as seen in the attached image

(My goal being to delete the ephemeral message. The function delete_original_message doesn't work either, and gives me a deprecated warning telling me to use delete_original_response)

[silver moat]

update py-cord

[fervent cradle]

I am already on 2.2.2

Unless 2.2.2 is not the latest?

[silver moat]

you should get the interaction of the original interaction

the interaction that sent the ephemeral message

[fervent cradle]

I use the interaction that is passed as parameter to the dropdown callback, do I need to use the interaction of the earlier message?

[silver moat]

yes

[fervent cradle]

Oh my bad, thank you

[vivid plaza]

Hey do you still want to help me?

@silver moat

[fallow hawk]

how would i make it so that only the original user can interact with a button?

[loud holly]

Interaction check

[fallow hawk]

how would i do that?

[rugged lantern]

1. read the docs

2. search in chat for related topic

3. google it

4. redo everything cus i know u didn't do the first two steps

[waxen whale]

I'm using python 3.11, never seen it before

[wary rover]

same for me

[simple canopy]

python 3.11 is not yet supported in release version of py-cord

you need to use in-dev version from github or rollback to 3.10

?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

There's still no way to respond to an interaction without sending or editing a message, right?

Anyone down to be kicked from my server so i can test my bot uwu :3

[young bone]

Create a new Account and invite the Account to your Server

Im in vietnam currently lol, i tried creating an account for 5 days and cant. Even tried a free vpn and no beans

[fervent cradle]

yes he is talking about this

[fringe socket]

Sure

[proud pagoda]

Is there any way to force the bot to sync commands with Discord so that the bot's available params line up with those shown on Discord for slash commands?

I tried using bot.sync_commands() but that doesn't work

It seems to have no effect at all

And all commands end up being outdated

Nvm, I fixed this ^

I just had to set force=True

[simple canopy]

is there a way to prevent delete_after from running in .send()?

basically i want to prevent message from being deleted if some conditions are met

[silver moat]

are the conditions known when you sent it?

[simple canopy]

well, i made a "game" so if somebody guesses the flag - then it shouldn't be deleted, and this thing is working on buttons

[silver moat]

if you not you can just use the og message.delete()

[simple canopy]

and i'm editing this same message from button's callback function

setting delete_after to None didn't help

[lost lodge]

help pls

[lost lodge]

Pleaseeeeee

[misty yew]

How can I send message in channel in on_member_join?

[silver moat]

what's your current code?

[misty yew]

I'm get channel (channel = bot.get_channel(channelData)) and try to send message in it with await channel.send(file=file)

[silver moat]

what is channelData

[misty yew]

ID of channel from database

[silver moat]

it is an int, right?

[misty yew]

yes

[silver moat]

you can use

channel = await bot.fetch_channel(channelData)

instead

If it is a valid channel, it would return it.

[silver moat]

that doesn't look like an int

[misty yew]

oops

[silver moat]

what even is that

I already read it but with member.update it‘s also lists the nicks, how can i filter it?

[vagrant scroll]

I want to uninstall all the libraries related to discord to reinstall pycord. I have already uninstalled discord, discord.py and py-cord, but when I run my bot it still works.

Which of this libraries do I have to uninstall?

[lost lodge]

HELPPPP

[lost lodge]

please just say me how to filter it

[silver moat]

simple if statement

[lost lodge]

ik but wich args

[silver moat]

which ever ones you need to fliter out

[lost lodge]

but i don't know them

[silver moat]

then you can use casework where you find the only case you want

which is timeout

[lost lodge]

so:

        async for thing in ctx.guild.audit_logs(user=member, action=discord.AuditLogAction.member_update):
            if AuditLogAction.member_update == "timeout":
                pass```

[silver moat]

none, restarting your IDE should update the dependencies

[lost lodge]

[spiral owl]

how can i remove the used from after using a slash command? its a template bot and i forget from where i got it xd

[spiral owl]

i think its the wrong code sniped, to remove the "x used from"

[full basin]

You can't remove that

It's a slash command

[spiral owl]

wasnt there a thing that when u do a slash command its only visable for yourself?

[full basin]

ephemeral=True

Your code doesn't even look like PyCord.

[spiral owl]

its not pycord, its a normal python dc bot, didnt find a other dc server xd

[copper dew]

seems like dpy iirc

the docstring seems to be the sphinx docstring format

[silver moat]

you cannot.

[spiral owl]

could you tell my how, i think i need to change then something in the base of the bot? how i said i have 0 clue, and im using a template

[full basin]

You're not even using pycord

This is the pycord library support server

[meager heron]

Is there an Option type that lets the user input multiple mentions (and only mentions)?

[fervent cradle]

should this be a command or a slash command

cause it automatically turns to a slash command for me

and the slash commands are super buggy

[copper dew]

ctx.send for prefixed commands, ctx.respond for slash commands

[silver moat]

if it's discord.Bot then it's a slash command. If it's commands.Bot, it's a prefixed command

[fervent cradle]

where do i report a bug in pycord

when using a slash command, any interaction makes any emojis not work

[silver moat]

the bot needs external emojis permissions on the @everyone role

[vagrant scroll]

doesnt work

[silver moat]

pycharm?

I mean the error that comes when I stop the bot.

[errant crane]

Here's the slash autocomplete example.

[heavy jungle]

oh i see

thanks

[abstract tundra]

@silver moat

[heavy jungle]

ah wait, this may not be what im looking for. I would like to change the future arguments based off of the first option.

is this possible?

[errant crane]

Here's the slash groups example.

[silver moat]

if you need for cogs there's

[errant crane]

Here's the slash cog groups example.

[heavy jungle]

this may be what i am looking for.

i will give it a go

was exactly what i was looking for

[meager heron]

How can I find out if a modal has been canceled?

[silver moat]

you can't

[meager heron]

Damn, that sucks

[fallow hawk]

i've looked around and tried googling it but anyone know how to set custom status on the bot?

nvm i just got it

[wary rover]

Hello!
Do you know if it is possible to do this?

Without doing this?

"          GENERAL         "

[silver moat]

you can use invis unicode characters

which is kinda more of a hassle

[wary rover]

I already do that, but it's strange, look

Here everything is perfectly aligned

I looked at the pixel with photoshop

Here nothing is correctly aligned

[silver moat]

¯_(ツ)_/¯

if it works, it works

[wary rover]

https://tenor.com/view/do-not-touch-it-programmer-walking-cow-coding-gif-17252607

[silver moat]

the only reason you would re-write something, if it works, is to make it more efficient

[wary rover]

The phone display is not perfect, I am stressed now

I just started getting this error randomly while testing.

[silver moat]

looks like a discord issue

[rotund current]

Thats what google

[silver moat]

if Internal Server Error wasn't clear enough

[rotund current]

is saying

Yeah. Just making sure. Pycord is auto-reconnecting, or at least the bot isn't dropping off the service, but is there any error handling I need to do to deal with it?

[silver moat]

if you really wanted to, you could with on_error

[fringe socket]

In need of a little help in #1038688239596355636

[meager heron]

If message.type is reply, then is message.reference guaranteed to be non-None?

[rotund current]

Is there a hard ceiling on the number of slash command groups you can have?

[lost lodge]

How can i check if the member update is a mute?

async for thing in ctx.guild.audit_logs(user=member, action=discord.AuditLogAction.member_update):```

[tiny wagon]

i got the interaction of the message using message.interaction. but not able to get the option values. how to get that?

[fringe socket]

How do I ctx.respond with an embed and text at the same time?

nvm

[floral leaf]

Hey,
Anyone know how this (in the image) is named in the pycord docs?

[cobalt tangle]

message.command

@discord.message_command()

[floral leaf]

Thank you found it 👍🏻

[cobalt tangle]

np

[supple shoal]

Is it possible to edit a response?

[cobalt tangle]

how to i pass in an option in a slash command to a select class

[cobalt tangle]

yes

[cobalt tangle]

msg = await ctx.respond("Hi")
await msg.edit("Bye")

[cobalt tangle]

help

[cobalt tangle]

interaction?

[supple shoal]

yes

[cobalt tangle]

show ur code

its supposed to be msg object

[young bone]

use ctx.edit()

[cobalt tangle]

ig that works too

[cobalt tangle]

I dont understand y this doesnt

[young bone]

the slash_command returns an interaction

[cobalt tangle]

a user will input a member to which I need the member's id in the dropdown class's callback

[supple shoal]

same error again lol

[cobalt tangle]

it works perfectly fine for me

[supple shoal]

ill make a forum post

[cobalt tangle]

u have some error, show ur code

[cobalt tangle]

also can u help me with smth

[young bone]

I can try

[cobalt tangle]

^

i need the slash cmd option's value for user to find result in sqlite

def __init__(self, bot_: commands.Bot, user: discord.Member, ctx):
        self.bot = bot_
        self.user = user
        self.ctx = ctx
``` does this work

[young bone]

you can try it but Im not sure xd

[cobalt tangle]

okay

Is there a way to make embeds a specific width? I want to return 5 embeds (its like a bot which searches a website), which have a title and a description. But it does not look very consistent if they have (because of the different lengths in title and description) a different width.

[cobalt tangle]

send the whole code (the whole cmd)

[proud pagoda]

Try m.edit

[young bone]

@lockdowncmds.command(description="Kick all members who join")

[gleaming falcon]

Btw, couldn’t you just turn off invites (requires Guild edit privs) instead of kicking?

[cobalt tangle]

oops

[full basin]

Just do ctx.edit

[cobalt tangle]

@fervent cradle hm, if .edit doesn't work, try m.edit_original_message()

[rare ice]

You mean a token?

You don’t need a “license key”.

Ohhh I see

Well you’d have to do that yourself, since we don’t know your intentions for it.

Maybe pull it from a database

[neon bramble]

if the user is downloading your bot's code then any protection that you try and code in will be able to be circumvented surely?

so you want to rely on the lack of technological ability of the end user for your security?

but then again, what else can you do

[gleaming falcon]

The only way I could see this working is if you controlled the bot instance, allowing anyone to add it to a server, but not do or watch anything aside from “license key” commands.

If you allow users to download and execute the source, there’s no point.

[drowsy shoal]

How would i use ipc in pycord?

[silver moat]

assign a row to the button

e.g.

@discord.ui.button(..., row = 0)

0-4

yes

[undone mulch]

/home/container/syst.py:11: RuntimeWarning: coroutine 'BotBase.load_extension' was never awaited
  client.load_extension((f"{path[2:]}/{filename[:-3]}").replace("/", "."))
RuntimeWarning: Enable tracemalloc to get the object allocation traceback```

I'm getting this error for no reason on a different Discord host VPS.

I just switched and it wasn't happening before.

syst.py

def load(client, path, filename):
    import os
    if os.path.isdir(f"{path}/{filename}"):
        for file in os.listdir(f"{path}/{filename}"): load(client, f"{path}/{filename}", file)
    else:
        if filename.endswith(".py"):
            try:
                client.load_extension((f"{path[2:]}/{filename[:-3]}").replace("/", "."))
                print(f"{w}{brt}Loaded {filename} from {path}{rst}")
            except Exception as e:
                print(f"{w}{brt}Failed to load {filename} from {path}{rst}:\n{e}\n")```

Line 11 is client.load_extension((f"{path[2:]}/{filename[:-3]}").replace("/", "."))

There should be no reason this is happening

[silver moat]

pip list and send output

unless you are using Pycharm where there's a button called Python Packages and take a screenshot of that.

[undone mulch]

No I'm not using pycharm.

[silver moat]

so this.

[undone mulch]

py-cord==2.0.0b5
psutil
colorama
asyncio
wrap
textblob
discord.gui
randfacts
dadjokes
music-cord```

[silver moat]

that's your requirements.txt

[undone mulch]

I'm unable to do an actualy pip list since it's like a host.

[silver moat]

but each could have extra dependencies

[undone mulch]

I can't type in console.

It shows me whats installing before

Do you want that?

[silver moat]

discord.gui requires discord.py

[undone mulch]

It works in my other host without an issue.

My bot is loading but nothing in the cogs is working

It says / not found. None of my commands in the cogs work.

It's only on this new host.

[silver moat]

use py-cord 2.2.2

[remote onyx]

How can i limit slash commands to certain users (developers, checking from a list of IDs would be fine)

[undone mulch]

But it can't be version if it works on my old host

[undone mulch]

What does this even mean

[silver moat]

You can limit them to just a guild.

[silver moat]

it means you should've done

await bot.load_extension()

but that is discord.py syntax

[undone mulch]

So it's using d.py?

[silver moat]

yea

[undone mulch]

wth

[silver moat]

because of this

https://github.com/Starwort/discord.gui/blob/master/requirements.txt#L1

[errant crane]

requirements.txt line 1

discord.py```

[silver moat]

you can fork it and remove discord.py

and then install from git

[undone mulch]

Fork what

[silver moat]

fork discord.gui

https://github.com/Starwort/discord.gui/fork

[undone mulch]

Nah it's the host

My other host works fine

It should be able to use it without d.py

[silver moat]

you can always run os.system("pip uninstall discord discord.py")

[undone mulch]

probably wouldn't work

[silver moat]

1st issue: why do you have 5.7k lines

[young bone]

Is not using cogs

[silver moat]

first use an IDE

and then you will see a missing parentheses.

[lone quail]

Is there a way to get the number of unread pings I have? Would be for a personal project so doesn’t need to work for anyone else

[silver moat]

against discord tos unless it isn't a discord client modification

Nah, it’s a hardware notification thing that I thought would be cool

[worldly tendon]

how do i catch @commands.has_permissions (in a cog) instead of it just throwing an error?

[silver moat]

https://docs.pycord.dev/en/master/api/events.html#discord.on_application_command_error
or https://docs.pycord.dev/en/master/api/cogs.html#discord.Cog.cog_command_error

[worldly tendon]

    @commands.Cog.listener()
    async def cog_command_error(self, ctx, error):
        print(f"[x] error: {error}")

TypeError: Commands or listeners must not start with cog_ or bot_

[silver moat]

@commands.Cog.listener(name = "cog_command_error")

[worldly tendon]

oh lol

[silver moat]

and rename actual function name

[worldly tendon]

one sec

does this also apply if the command is in a command group?

because it aint catching it

@commands.Cog.listener(name="kick")
async def on_command_error(self, ctx, err):
    print(f"[x] error: {err}")

mod = discord.SlashCommandGroup("mod", "List of moderation commands for Admin")

@mod.command(description = "Kicks a member. Permission required.")
@discord.option("member", description = "Member wanting to kick")
@discord.commands.option("reason", description = "Required: Describe the reason")
@commands.has_permissions(kick_members=True)
async def kick(self, ctx: discord.ApplicationContext, member: discord.Member, *, reason = None):

[worldly tendon]

got it, no need for a listener.

    async def cog_command_error(self, ctx: commands.Context, error: commands.CommandError):
        await ctx.send(error, reference=ctx.message)

[somber ginkgo]

how do i use get_application_command to get a subcommand? currently im doing get_application_command('group subgroup subcommand') but it's returning None

[fluid tusk]

vscode isnt detecting pycofd

its annoying

[fluid tusk]

update: only happens with conda envs

[heavy jungle]

When passing a timedelta to timeout_for i get TypeError: Member.timeout_for() takes 2 positional arguments but 3 were given, how can i fix this?

[silver moat]

send code

[heavy jungle]

currenttime = datetime.datetime.now()
  currenttime = time.mktime(currenttime.timetuple())
  time1 = int(convert(length))
  endtime = datetime.timedelta(seconds=time1)

  timestamp1 = datetime.datetime.fromtimestamp(currenttime + time1)
  delta = datetime.timedelta(seconds=time1)
  print(delta)
  await member.timeout_for(delta, reason)```
convert returns a value of seconds

[silver moat]

what about reason

[heavy jungle]

reason is a string

i think the problem is with my delta

docs say it takes a delta but the delta returns 1 day, 0:00:00 which i assume is read as 3 args

[silver moat]

I don't think so

[round rivet]

reason is a kwarg

[heavy jungle]

that would be an issue, thank you

[mortal junco]

Never had this issue but its saying module discord has no attribute bot

File "C:\Users\layne\Downloads\Discord-Generator-Bot-1.0\LinkGen.py", line 12, in <module>
client = discord.Bot()
AttributeError: module 'discord' has no attribute 'Bot'

:C

[silver moat]

pip list and show output

[mortal junco]

ok

[silver moat]

?tag notpycord

[obtuse junco]

The library name is py-cord not pycord

[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

[silver moat]

and then restart vsc

or whatever editor/terminal you use

[cobalt tangle]

does banning a user via user.ban() automatically delete all their messages?

[mortal junco]

Hey, it’s not anything really important but what I’m making is a discord account bot that sends you like user ids to your dms , but what’s a way I can limit the amount of uses that command can be run yall got any ideas on how I can do this

[cobalt tangle]

like limit it forever?

or for some time?

[mortal junco]

How the generator works is they have to have a role for them to gen

[cobalt tangle]

^

[mortal junco]

Temporary

Every day I want them to have a certain limit

[cobalt tangle]

do u restart ur bot often

u can use @commands.cooldown(amount of times the cmd can be used before cooldown, cooldown in seconds, commands.BucketType.user)

but it will reset after u restart the bot

@mortal junco

[mortal junco]

Well how the bot works is it’s like a subscription

Not really but kinda

They boost they server get access to it

[cobalt tangle]

is this what you are looking for?

[cobalt tangle]

whats ur timeout?

No, super.__init__() should be in def __init__()

as a matter of fact, where is your def __init__()?

[round rivet]

Channel name changes are heavily ratelimited

[cobalt tangle]

maybe add their name to a db temporarily and check if their name is there via interaction_check()?

I dont think there's a method for cooldown in interaction

[round rivet]

I believe it's 2/10m

I could be wrong

[hazy vault]

brutha you should start reading your code

anyways

is there a way to restart the bot without disconnecting?

it is kind of an issue if you have a view without a timeout and you have to restart the bot

'cause then all the views will be broken

[cobalt tangle]

add persistant views

[errant crane]

Here's the persistent example.

[cobalt tangle]

@hazy vault

[verbal dawn]

.

[hazy vault]

thank you so much

but this is just a view without a timeout

I don't need that lol

[cobalt tangle]

you can reload cogs maybe

[cobalt tangle]

yes? thats where persistent-views come in

[cobalt tangle]

seems like u do but okay

[hazy vault]

I already have it

I know how to remove a timeout lmao

[hazy vault]

yeah I figured but it won't reload internal stuff

[cold hamlet]

How do I access the selected users from ComponentType.user_select?

is it still Select.values

[verbal dawn]

Can I add field without value?

[fringe socket]

Not sure. But I know you can't add a value without a field.

I feel like it's a no though

Probably?

https://tryitands.ee

@verbal dawn

[cobalt tangle]

add the code for the buttons after all the bot's code in Interface and give button 1 row 0 and button 2 row 1

[verbal dawn]

Why does this remove 1 child per intereaction

[cobalt tangle]

because u remove the item...

[verbal dawn]

I mean i want remove 2 at once not 1

[cobalt tangle]

and what is option

[cobalt tangle]

send the code then

[verbal dawn]

Basically 3 interactions:

1. selection
2. enable
3. disable

when you switch to another selection only enable removes

[cobalt tangle]

ok send the code

[cobalt tangle]

ok one sec

[cobalt tangle]

view is discord.ui.View right?

[verbal dawn]

yes

it's also inside of command not class

[cobalt tangle]

ok

[verbal dawn]

also it has duplicated ids (i didn't see it before)

[cobalt tangle]

what

[verbal dawn]

buttons with duplicated id

[cobalt tangle]

oh yeah

wait

so the option cb removes all children (enable, disable buttons)

but three of the options add new Enable and Disable buttons

maybe ur getting confused with the new enable and disable buttons?

[verbal dawn]

yeah probably

[cobalt tangle]

bruh

[cobalt tangle]

is it confirmed that thats whats happening?

[verbal dawn]

I can use clear_items() but option will clear too

[cobalt tangle]

yes

[cobalt tangle]

cant u use clear_items() and do add_item()

[verbal dawn]

lemme try

it works thanks

[cobalt tangle]

np ig

didnt have a clue abt what ur idea was lmfao

[wheat perch]

so i am migrating from discord.py 1.7 to 2.0 and i confused now in this:
i was using discord_components to get the label of the button on click but on 2.0 i cannot seem to find anything that can help me get the label of the specific button on click

[full basin]

This isn't discord.py

[wheat perch]

ahh so where do i go for discord.py

[rare ice]

Maybe the support server?

[wheat perch]

ok

[cobalt tangle]

why r you adding it to the view, its already added cuz its in a discord.ui.View

u dont have to add it...

its automatically added

just send the class

ill update and send u

...

its been 3 minutes

So, TextChannel.permissions_for is considered the most accurate way of checking permissions, but sometimes I get a PartialMessageable instead. What do people do in this situation?

[vale prism]

how would I go about making a message with multiple buttons?

[clear parrot]

did you get 1 button working?

[vale prism]

yes

[clear parrot]

[clear parrot]

how did you do it

[vale prism]

class ReactionRoles(discord.ui.View):
  @discord.ui.button(label="Announcements", style=discord.ButtonStyle.secondary, emoji="📢")
  async def button_callback(self, button, interaction):
    user = interaction.user
    
    guild = bot.get_guild(924979519977320459)
    role = guild.get_role(944940789375565935)
    
    if role in user.roles:
      await user.remove_roles(role)
      await interaction.response.send_message("Removed <@&944940789375565935> from you!", ephemeral=True)
    else:
      await user.add_roles(role)
      await interaction.response.send_message("Gave you <@&944940789375565935> role!", ephemeral=True)

@bot.event
async def on_message(message):
  if message.author == bot.user:
    return
    
  if message.content.startswith("?roles") and message.author.id == 675316333780533268:
    embed = discord.Embed(title="Roles", description="""
Lets get you some roles!
  """, color=0x0d6dea)
    await message.channel.send(embed=embed, view=ReactionRoles())
