Basic Pycord Help (Quick Questions Only)

[sick quest]

this freezes the bot as well -- basically when I try to run other commands while the task is running nothing happens

'the application did not respond'

[pallid seal]

Hey

When I do pip install py-cord it doesnt work

Can someone please help me out?

[sick quest]

what is the error message?

[pallid seal]

Its in German

pip : Die Benennung "pip" wurde nicht als Name eines Cmdlet, einer Funktion, einer Skriptdatei oder eines ausführbaren Programms erkannt. Überprüfen Sie die
Schreibweise des Namens, oder ob der Pfad korrekt ist (sofern enthalten), und wiederholen Sie den Vorgang.
In Zeile:1 Zeichen:1

• pip install py-cord

•   + CategoryInfo          : ObjectNotFound: (pip:String) [], CommandNotFoundException
    + FullyQualifiedErrorId : CommandNotFoundException

I can send it here

[sick quest]

try python -m pip install py-cord

[pallid seal]

It says that Phyton couldnt get finded

[sick quest]

do you have python installed?

[pallid seal]

I am not sure tbh

This comes when I want to open Python

[sick quest]

try this py -3 -m pip install -U py-cord

[pallid seal]

into the black console?

[sick quest]

yes

[pallid seal]

Its says Syntax Error

I mean Invalid Syntax

[loud holly]

reinstall python

[pallid seal]

Okay

[weak marlin]

Not sure why I'm getting this error

[versed fern]

Any ideas why the if statement never get's triggered?

[young bone]

do you use commands.Bot or discord.Bot?

[weak marlin]

discord.Bot

[young bone]

change commands.Cog to discord.Cog

[weak marlin]

oh

same error

[young bone]

what is your py-cord version?

[weak marlin]

I don't remember the command to check

[young bone]

that is basic python...

[weak marlin]

💀

[versed fern]

Printed thread_id and thread.id, than thread_id == thread.id

[weak marlin]

I had to update

I have the latest version now but it still gives me the same error

[versed fern]

show ur pip freeze

[young bone]

can you do commands.slash_command()

[young bone]

discord.py...

[weak marlin]

I can

I thought I uninstalled that

[versed fern]

it's the discord.py

[young bone]

uninstall discord.py and py-cord and reinstall py-cord

[weak marlin]

alr

lol this just popped up

[young bone]

restart vs code

[weak marlin]

now nothing happens 💀

alr there

same thing again

[full basin]

The error clearly explains it lmao

[woven gulch]

So how does one add a slash command to a bot class?

Before instantiating it

[limber urchin]

Why do you want to do that?

[woven gulch]

Keep my code clean and have everything inside a class

[limber urchin]

Keeping everything inside of one class is not "clean". And it's not the intended way of using the library.

Just use cogs

[woven gulch]

Ok

[glossy tusk]

code?

[round rivet]

can you try installing git+https://github.com/Pycord-Development/pycord@fix-automod and seeing if that fix works

[sick quest]

I already fixed it (#969580926885580801 message), thanks though!

[sick quest]

I'm trying to get a message by it's ID with this:

for channel in self.bot.get_all_channels():
            try:
                message = await channel.fetch_message(message_id)
            except NotFound:
                continue

But it's throwing an error every time I try it: Value "998272089343668364-1049395251992862830" is not snowflake.
I suspect this is due to the fact that I'm passing in a str to a function that (in the docs) needs an integer, but I can't exactly parse this string into an integer due to the hyphen. Does anyone know how to fix this?

[limber urchin]

A message ID never has a hyphen

[sick quest]

oh, I think I'm using the wrong ID

AH I see, if you hold shift and hit copy ID on a message, it copies <channel_id>-<message_id>

however if you use the three dots and hit copy ID, it copies only the message_id

[zinc cloak]

Question:
If I want to make a button persistent, but I already have a class for it, how would I go about it? I already looked at the documentation examples, but they are creating a class decorator and creating a new class. I already have a class. Is there a way to integrate it into the persistent view?

Ah idk should I make a thread

[silver moat]

buttons cannot be persistent, only views can

[zinc cloak]

ah ok

[silver moat]

now excuse me, I will go back to studying

[zinc cloak]

but if I want to add a custom ID to the button it would make it persistent right?

[zinc cloak]

oh sorry

[errant crane]

just a squid is AFK: study

Here's the persistent example.

[undone falcon]

Hi !, how it is possible to get this error ? It only appear sometimes, most time it work like normal. I don't get how the Member object can be a User and not a Member.
Error: add_timed_role_to_user with values [{'value': 'member id', 'type': 6, 'name': 'member'}, {'value': 'role id', 'type': 8, 'name': 'role'}, {'value': 0$
Error -> Application Command raised an exception: AttributeError: 'User' object has no attribute 'roles'

[round rivet]

If the user is not in the guild you will get a User

[undone falcon]

How can you @user that is not in your guild ?

I did not think it was possible

[limber urchin]

it is possible, but the mention will only show the ID

so it would look like @186427363909697536

and clients can have members of servers cached, despite them not being in the server anymore

[undone falcon]

I see thank you !! Could I just check if the object is of type User to return a error message or their is a better way to do it ?

[limber urchin]

I'd just do a try except

[undone falcon]

I see thank you 🙏

[fringe socket]

How do I make my bot have a streaming status? Whenever I try to do it, it just gives me a playing status or no status at all

[limber urchin]

show your code

[fringe socket]

hold on

[proud mason]

Is the background task blocking? Then use asyncio.to_thread

[fringe socket]

I know that it is possible to make an argument like a boolean that has choices other than True and False, but there isn't adequate documentation.
How would I go about doing this?

[proud mason]

Well you could use enums?

[fringe socket]

wdym?

can I have a docs page @proud mason

[solemn idol]

How would I be able to log images

[limber urchin]

log images?

[fringe socket]

Nevermind I was looking for discord.Option

[proud mason]

Oh lol

I thought you meant with python in general

Not pycord specifically

[solemn idol]

Yes, I'm making a bot with a moderation section, that section logs messages before edit after edit etc. (people know it does that dw.)
but I am trying to make it log files / images attached to a message.

it has to just hold for 3 days minimal since it auto deletes the log after 3 days.

[amber shale]

i have a slash command but it wont respond to user is there any way to hide/stop that "application didnt respond error"

[limber urchin]

Respond to the slash command

[amber shale]

i dont want to

[limber urchin]

Then you'll see the error 🤷‍♂️

[amber shale]

ok, thanks 🙂
i thought there will be some way to hide it 😄

[quartz thunder]

Hi all, hope you are fine, I'm creating a category and I need to set notifications OFF for this one, do you know how can I do that ?

[limber urchin]

what?

[amber shale]

i think it is client settings, so bot cant do anything

[sand siren]

is there a rich presence feature in pycord?

[cobalt tangle]

just send a response and delete it immediately

[amber shale]

i thought there will be something else

😅

[sick quest]

what is the difference between using asyncio.to_thread, asyncio.create_task, and asyncio.run_in_executor?

[cobalt tangle]

so for some commands, I handle it via @command.error, but it gets passed on to on_command_error again. How do I prevent that

[sand siren]

is there a rich presence feature in pycord?

pls answer

[silver moat]

no

you can check out py presence for that

https://github.com/qwertyquerty/pypresence

[sand siren]

and the rich presence would run even after i turn the bot on in pycord?

[silver moat]

are you thinking of rich presence for the user or for the bot?

[sand siren]

bot

[silver moat]

bots can’t have rich presence

[sand siren]

so how do i make the "add to server" button

[silver moat]

you go to the developer portal and under oauth2 you can add it there

[median ridge]

How do I use the "Options" thing for the input on slash commands?

[errant crane]

Here's the slash options example.

[sand siren]

thx

[median ridge]

something like

@bot.slash_command
async def hello(ctx,yeah: Options(str,"Hey")):
  await ctx.respond("Hello")

But I want the autocomplete function

And also input a list of stuff

[cobalt tangle]

how do I error handle per cmd for Bridge

[sand siren]

how do i give my bot "listening to x"?

[cobalt tangle]

Activity

[sand siren]

how?

[loud holly]

Make a function and sub into the autocomplete arg

[loud holly]

Check the docs or Google

[sand siren]

thx

[median ridge]

yeah that's for autocompleting, but would you happen to know how to input a list of values?

[cobalt tangle]

activity = discord.Activity(type=discord.ActivityType.listening, name="commands")
bot = commands.Bot(activity=activity)

[cobalt tangle]

help pls

[loud holly]

As in a set values that users need to choose from?

choices=[]

[median ridge]

yes, basically they will have to do
/list [yes,yes,yes] [no,no,no]

how do i give a list input

[storm oyster]

What are you trying to do?

interaction.guild should return the guild where the interaction is being used

[fervent cradle]

hey , how would i delete a previous view sent by the bot ?

[storm oyster]

Just edit the message and set view=None

[fervent cradle]

thanks !

[storm oyster]

np

[fervent cradle]

hey uhm , how would i get the last sent message by the bot ?

i cant seem to find any infos about it on internet

[full basin]

Or read the docs like it's telling you https://mariadb.com/kb/en/update/

[loud holly]

You'll need to on_message and check for if the message is by the bot, save the channel , guild and message ID in a dB and then every message update the data

[fervent cradle]

woah

never though it'd be that hard , ill find another way to remive my view then lol

thanks CLearMist anyways !

[loud holly]

You technically can only store in channel and message ID idk why I said guild ID as well but the other part is needed

[opal kraken]

how can i give bots a different role than that of normal members

[median ridge]

For some reason only the admins can use my bot?

[fervent cradle]

    @slash_command(description="Richte das Autoreact-System ein.")
    @commands.has_guild_permissions(administrator=True)
    async def autoreact_add(
        self,
        ctx: discord.ApplicationContext,
        textchannel: Option(discord.TextChannel, "Wähle einen Textkanal aus, wo automatisch reagiert werden soll.", required=True),
        emoji: Option(str, "Wähle ein Emoji aus, welches automatisch reagiert werden soll.", required=True),
        emoji2: Option(str, "Wähle ein Emoji aus, welches automatisch reagiert werden soll.", required=False),
    ):
        """Richtet das Feedback-System ein"""
        if textchannel not in ctx.guild.channels:
            await ctx.respond(
                content="Dieser Channel exestiert nicht",
                ephemeral=True
            )
        if emoji not in discord.Emojis:
            await ctx.respond(
                content="Dieses Emoji exestiert nicht",
                ephemeral=True
            )
        if emoji2 not in ctx.guild.emojis:
            await ctx.respond(
                content="Dieses Emoji exestiert nicht",
                ephemeral=True
            )
        if str(ctx.guild_id) in list(data.keys()):
            await ctx.respond(
                content="Das Autoreact System ist bereits laufend.",
                ephemeral=True
            )
            return
        if textchannel is None:
            textchannel = ctx.guild.get_channel(ctx.channel.id)

Why is it saying "Dieses Emoji exestiert nicht" (This emoji doesn't exist) when I select a regular emoji from Discord?

[lost geyser]

Is there a recommended way of adding a help to command to a slash command bot? If yes, how?

[fervent cradle]

You mean that when the bot is pinged then a message is sent from the bot?

[lost geyser]

maybe, or like a command /help. I know this is possible by just creating a command, but for the old commands there was a handy utilitiy

[fervent cradle]

use /help

[west vault]

/help is the most common one

dunno actually what we do at pycord, but other libs even autogenerate the /help based on the code

[proud mason]

asyncio.to_thread is the same as loop.run_in_executor . to_thread is a high level api call. Meaning it is simpler and easier to use. Both run a blocking function in a different thread so your event pool never gets blocked. This returns a coroutine https://docs.python.org/3/library/asyncio-task.html#asyncio.to_thread

Same analogy with asyncio.create_task and loop.create_task . asyncio one is higher level and easier. It submits a coroutine to the event loop to run in the background. This need not be awaited. Task execution starts the moment you call create_task .
See this question and accepted answer https://stackoverflow.com/q/62528272/13088701

||More details but this may confuse you. If yk python has a GIL so only 1 thread can be run at a time. So the switch between tasks happens when you await something inside it||

So basically use create_task if you have a coroutine you want to run in the background

Use to_thread if you have a blocking function you want to run in the background

||you can also use to_thread inside create_task but i don't think that does anything different||

All the above stuff is like intermediate level async python

[sick quest]

That mostly makes sense -- I solved my problem using loop.run_in_executor, however it's caused some problems that I'm trying to fix -- basically what I'm trying to do is run some code specified by the user (owner only command, I'm aware it's quite dangerous), and then capture the everything that went to stdout. However, if I run a more process-intensive task, it blocks the main event loop and effectively freezes the bot

so loop.run_in_executor works fine for now, but if I run one piece of code while another is running, sometimes the stdout goes to the wrong place for some reason

[proud mason]

Ah hmm

Try to_thread

[sick quest]

yeah I'm putting that in rn

[proud mason]

It saves the context vars and stuff

Maybe that's what causing the issue

[sick quest]

will just changing the function work? like result = await loop.run_in_executor(None, run_in_background, args) vs result = await asyncio.to_thread(None, run_in_background, args)

[proud mason]

No asyncio.to_thread has a different order of parameters

[sick quest]

oh ok

i'll look it up rq then

[proud mason]

First goes the func and then its args. It doesn't have the None part

[sick quest]

ah

thanks

[sick quest]

same issue...

I was thinking maybe something like multiprocessing could solve this? idk how that would work though

context: the second one should return a message saying nothing went to stdout
my code is basically just:

with io.StringIO() as output, contextlib.redirect_stdout(output):
  exec(code, global_vars)
  output = output.getvalue()
``` (this runs in the to_thread, and `code` is a compiled code object)

[lost geyser]

That would be great...

[solemn idol]

is there anway I can close an option after using the other?

[silver moat]

nope

you can use command groups tho

[solemn idol]

mkay thanks

[proud mason]

Hmm idk bout that lol

You can pass in a multiprocessor pool to run_in_executor . No idea if that's of any use

[potent tendon]

I wanna make a poker game with pycord, but I want to add a dealer role so that only the dealer can do certain commands, is there a way to make only a certain role able to execute slash commands?

[sick quest]

alright well I have something working for now, thanks anyways!

[still helm]

hmmmm updated to the newest pycord version and got :

discord.errors.ExtensionFailed: Extension 'cogs.dcCommands' raised an error: AttributeError: 'MainBot' object has no attribute 'bridge_commands'

[young bone]

show your pip list

[still helm]

there is no discord.py or nextcord repo 😉

[young bone]

just show it

[limber urchin]

I'm not sure if the channel is made for that, but as long as it's not for personal gain I don't see why not. Probably better to ask in #general though

[abstract raven]

Okie, I'll ask there thanksss

[bright jetty]

Hi, how i can fix this please ?

user = guild.get_member(int(id.group(1)))
AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'group'```

```php
@cog_ext.cog_slash(name="profile", description="User stats (mention, username)", guild_ids=None, options=[discord_slash.manage_commands.create_option(name="user",description="User profile", option_type=str, required=True)])
    async def profile(self, ctx, user:str):

        if "@" in user:
            id = re.search('<@!(.+?)>', user);
            guild = ctx.guild
            user = guild.get_member(int(id.group(1))) # LINE 84

[young bone]

read the error

[bright jetty]

i know

but my question is how i can fix it

[silver moat]

consider using user options instead of strings

[errant crane]

Here's the slash options example.

[bright jetty]

i using both options

string and @ping

[silver moat]

you can use the user option type

[bright jetty]

but i need both options..

[silver moat]

user also handles mentions

[bright jetty]

i dont understand

[verbal marten]

If you set the option type to discord.User it does the conversions for you, it can take an ID too @bright jetty

[young bone]

discord.Member*

[verbal marten]

Oh yeah mb didn’t fully read what they were trying to do

[bright jetty]

but i need the user to be able to write something other than mention

and mention too

for 1 optin = 2 values (mention, nick)

[young bone]

you get both from discord.Member

[bright jetty]

so if i write /profil NICK (without @) so i can use this command ?

[verbal marten]

That option type allows them to search for the member within the server, so there’s no need to @ them in the command

The bot would make you select a member from a list before the command is run

[solemn idol]

How would I use discord.Slashcommand.mention ?
(To mention slash commands)

[bright jetty]

but option nick is not user

[verbal marten]

Do you want to be able to search for them by a nickname too? Cause you can do that by having one option with the type discord.Member

Just try it and see if it’s what you need

[bright jetty]

No, i need this for example:
/profile @bright jetty
/profile something_other_text

[verbal marten]

It returns the string that will correctly embed into discord, so you just need to send that in a message

[verbal marten]

Yeah the slash command can do that conversion for you if the other text is a nickname

[bright jetty]

But i want it to work even if its not a nickname

[verbal marten]

[solemn idol]

Tried to put it in a description of a slash command, then called it via client.get_application_command(ping). description

it would it give me the <property at Object...>

[bright jetty]

option=user has 2 options..
mention(nickname) and something_other_text (but this text is not nickname)

[limber urchin]

You can't have both member and text as an option type, if that's what you are asking

[proud mason]

You can implement something like that yourself using autocomplete

[bright jetty]

No, my question is how i can fix this error 😄

[bright jetty]

˘

[limber urchin]

You can fix it by making sure id is not None

[bright jetty]

But id is always None

[limber urchin]

So why are you trying to do id.group then?

[bright jetty]

            if id is None:
                return await ctx.send("none")```

why is id none ?

[limber urchin]

Because you're trying to match a string with ! in it

and that doesn't have a ! in it

[bright jetty]

omg 😄

thanks

[verbal marten]

How can I make a custom cooldown apply per server, not globally? If its a global slash command. Would I have to store data on when the command was last run in a db?

[simple canopy]

there is example on github repo for cooldowns
https://github.com/Pycord-Development/pycord/blob/master/examples/cooldown.py

you just need to use BucketType.guild

[fervent cradle]

Hi, on this line:

await msg.add_reaction('![dv_wCyanHeartOwO](https://cdn.discordapp.com/emojis/837700662192111617.webp?size=128 "dv_wCyanHeartOwO")')

I'm getting an error:

  File "/usr/local/lib/python3.8/dist-packages/discord/message.py", line 1487, in add_reaction
    await self._state.http.add_reaction(self.channel.id, self.id, emoji)
  File "/usr/local/lib/python3.8/dist-packages/discord/http.py", line 359, in request
    raise HTTPException(response, data)
discord.errors.HTTPException: 400 Bad Request (error code: 50035): Invalid Form Body
In emoji_id: Value "dv_wCyanHeartOwO" is not snowflake.

The bot has been running for many days and it only started throwing this error the last hour. I'm not sure what's wrong

The msg is a discord.Message object

[verbal marten]

I need it to be per-user and per-guild, so a user has separate cooldowns per guild for the same command

[proud mason]

Then use the member bucket type

[west vault]

it tells you exactly what the problem is

[proud mason]

Try using a PartialEmoji

.rtfm PartialEmoji

[winter condor]

discord.PartialEmoji
discord.PartialEmoji.animated

[simple canopy]

so multiple people can run it once per X amount of time or only 1 guy can run it in guild once per X?

[fervent cradle]

I can read errors, I just don’t understand

• why it just stops working all of a sudden, considering my usage of a string for a custom emoji has worked for months

• why it thinks the snowflake ID is the emoji name when I placed the whole emoji string in

[proud mason]

Well the error says the emoji name is not a snowflake

I'm pretty sure the emoji id should be passed there and not the emoji name

[fervent cradle]

I’ll try that, thanks

[proud mason]

Did the emoji name change

[verbal marten]

Multiple people can use it once per X amount of time in each guild. So each user can use it once every 4 hours in each guild

[west vault]

/ does it exist still

hi giga

[fervent cradle]

Nope

[simple canopy]

there is BucketType.member, i'm pretty sure it works on per guild basis (member is commonly used to describe guild member specifically, not overall user)

[fervent cradle]

still exists, it’s the exact same name and ID

[west vault]

did you updated pycord recently?

[fervent cradle]

No, it’s on 2.1.1

[proud mason]

Member bucket works per guild. User bucket works for the user globally

Update lol

[west vault]

mhh first thing > update

[simple canopy]

yeah, that's what i was thinking, so it should work for the guy

[proud mason]

Yep

[fervent cradle]

Alright

[verbal marten]

Perfect that works, thanks a lot!

[simple canopy]

you're welcome

[fervent cradle]

I was only able to update up to 2.2.0, on >=2.3.0 I encounter this error on startup

  File "C:\Users\laiye\Desktop\Bots\dank-vibes-bot\cogs\mod\mod.py", line 287, in Mod
    class RoleFlags(commands.FlagConverter, case_insensitive=True, delimiter=' ', prefix='--'):
  File "C:\Users\laiye\miniconda3\envs\dank-vibes-bot\lib\site-packages\discord\ext\commands\flags.py", line 335, in __new__
    for flag_name, flag in get_flags(attrs, global_ns, local_ns).items():

    flag = Flag(name=name, annotation=annotation, default=flag)
TypeError: __init__() got an unexpected keyword argument 'name'

I have a simple FlagConverter that I use for a command

    class RoleFlags(commands.FlagConverter, case_insensitive=True, delimiter=' ', prefix='--'):
        roles: Optional[str]

[west vault]

mhh could you share that particular code?

[proud mason]

I'm pretty sure you don't make subclasses like that

Aren't you supposed to pass the delimiter and all that stuff in the init ?

[fervent cradle]

Oh? I used the documentation's example

[simple canopy]

i think those are 'Class' arguments

not instance ones

[proud mason]

Oh

[proud mason]

Hearing that for the first time lmao

Well idk then

[fervent cradle]

That's all of the code for the RoleFlags

not sure if this would be useful but this is how I pass the roleflags in the command

    @checks.has_permissions_or_role(manage_roles=True)
    @commands.command(name="self", aliases=["selfroles"], usage="--roles (role names separated by commas) (optional)")
    async def selfroles(self, ctx, channel:Optional[discord.TextChannel] = None, *, flags: RoleFlags):

[proud mason]

Hmm can you send me some more examples or docs for that

[simple canopy]

you have class variables, aka global for it, and instance ones, that are only present in instances of this class, you can basically set those while subclassing

at least its what it seems to be?

[proud mason]

Ohh. So delimiter and prefix are class variables in this case?

[simple canopy]

i gotta test smth

[proud mason]

class FlagConverter:
    delimiter="something"
    prefix="smth else"
    ...

These are class vars right

[simple canopy]

yea, i but i might've fuck'd up myself, one second

[proud mason]

👍

[fervent cradle]

I tried using the flagconverter in some simple code, it worked in 2.2.0 but failed past that version
Removing the delimiter and prefix did nothing too

token = ""

import discord
from discord.ext import commands

intents = discord.Intents.all()

bot = commands.Bot(command_prefix="!", intents=intents)

class TestFlags(commands.FlagConverter, delimiter=' ', prefix='--'):
    one: str
    two: str

@bot.command(name="testflag")
async def testflag(ctx: commands.Context, *, flags: TestFlags):
    await ctx.send(f"one: {flags.one} two: {flags.two}")

bot.run(token)

[simple canopy]

well, dunder __init_subclass__ handles those sort of argument, i mistaken shit

class FlagConverter:
  def __init_subclass__(cls, delimiter=None):
    super().__init_subclass__()
    cls.delimiter=delimiter
    ...

class RoleFlags(FlagConverter, delimiter='A')

kind of like that

but you can set class variables using this

[simple canopy]

there doesn't seem to be any documented changes for this, might be a bug

not sure

[west vault]

could you fill in a bug report on gh?

[fervent cradle]

Ah I believe one's been created already https://github.com/Pycord-Development/pycord/issues/1805

[west vault]

https://github.com/Pycord-Development/pycord/pull/1806

[proud mason]

Ohh makes sense

[dusk burrow]

slash commands are not registering for me

is anyone else experiencing similar issues

[proud mason]

Are you overriding the on connect event?

[dusk burrow]

yea I am

i should have read this lol

[dusk burrow]

i fixed that issue but slash commands still wont register

do you think it may have something to do with the fact that im using AutoShardedBot?

wait i managed to fix it

thank you for your assistance

it probably would have helped if i loaded the cogs before i synced the commands 🤣

[young bone]

Is the bot at many server?

[dusk burrow]

the bot is currently only in a few servers atm, but it will be releasing publicly in mid January so it will probably be in more servers then.

ik sharding is only required when your bot reaches 2500 guilds, but i wanted to have it implemented from the start, as then if and when the bot reaches 2500 guilds then i have 1 less thing to worry about 😂

[quartz thunder]

Hey 🙂 Is there a way to get the guild creation date ?

[young bone]

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

[quartz thunder]

Thanks

[fervent cradle]

how do i add links to buttons

i keep getting an error saying

    @discord.ui.button(label="LC", row=0, style=discord.ButtonStyle.link, url='https://elevateservices.sell.app/product/lastcheat-rust')
TypeError: button() got an unexpected keyword argument 'url'```

[young bone]

can you show me the pip list?

[proud mason]

The pip list
Not your requirements.txt

[proud mason]

Using a decorator for url buttons won't work

They don't have a callback

Create a button object using the Button class and add it to the view

[fervent cradle]

im new to buttons so can you help me further?

[cobalt tangle]

how do you handle bridge command errors

[young bone]

the same like prefix and slash commands

[young bone]

do you know basic python?

[fervent cradle]

yes

[young bone]

1. that was not the pip list
2. Om already told you what you have to do for the Url button

[cobalt tangle]

i have to have 2 error handlers?

one for application and one for prefix?

[young bone]

I would do it like that

[cobalt tangle]

No way around it?

[simple canopy]

https://docs.pycord.dev/en/stable/ext/bridge/api.html#discord.ext.bridge.BridgeCommand.error

[cobalt tangle]

I mean globally

[simple canopy]

well, there is on_error, but it will catch literally almost everything

i don't think on_command_error is universal either, so you need to manually assign the same coro method to all comands

or use on_error

[simple canopy]

||you can try using on_command_error and see if it works, but i don't think so||

[solemn idol]

it just gives me this

[full basin]

Code?

[solemn idol]

elif command:
            cmd = client.get_application_command(command)
            if command == cmd.name:
                commands_desc = (f'{cmd.description}\n Usage : {discord.SlashCommand.mention}')
                em.title = (f'{cmd} - Help')
                em.description = commands_desc
                em.color = em_blue
                await ctx.respond(embed = em)

not entirely sure if I am using it correctly

[cobalt tangle]

huh

[full basin]

Do you realize you're trying to get a mention from a non intiated class

[cobalt tangle]

u need the object

not a property

its cmd.mention

[solemn idol]

wait hold up-

[cobalt tangle]

discord.SlashCommand is a property

[solemn idol]

thanks

it works

I am not sure why I didn't see this directly

[pale scroll]

is it possible to fetch the id of a reference message using a slash command?
as in: you reply to a message with a slash command, how do you get the id of the message that you replied to?

[cobalt tangle]

msg = await ctx.respond('...')

[full basin]

You can't reply to a message and use a slash command at the same time.

[pale scroll]

hm

[full basin]

When you execute the slash command the reply goes away

[pale scroll]

oh i see

[full basin]

You'd need to do it with prefixed commands

[pale scroll]

well that's annoying

thanks

[full basin]

Np

[amber shale]

is there any way to limit commands to some server?
like only to those servers who has bought premium

[simple canopy]

you can define a check for a command via @commands.check decorator

and check for stuff here

[amber shale]

it will still show in /?

[simple canopy]

yes

[amber shale]

anyway to remove it from that

[simple canopy]

i don't think so

the thing is, command are registered on the bot's startup

and you can't really change them in the runtime, at least in a somewhat friendly way

[amber shale]

so discord api limitation?

[simple canopy]

i'm not sure, but i do not know the way to get it working

don't think it's possible

[amber shale]

am i explaining it correctly?

sorry if i am not

• user checks available command using /, there is one command help
• a user buys premium
• user checks available command using /, there is two command now help and premium

[simple canopy]

well, you can set guilds on the command creation, so you can pass a data from db

but it's only on startup

[amber shale]

i think it is pycord's limitation?

[simple canopy]

no other way to handle this, manual command check is the best way i guess

[amber shale]

ok

[simple canopy]

i think it's discord's limitation afterall

[amber shale]

ok

thanks for spending time to clear my doubt

[simple canopy]

yeah, you're welcome

[median ridge]

How do I make a slash command only show for certain users?

Not based on permissions, but only for some users

[young bone]

you cant

only with permissions

[median ridge]

Aw

How do I make a command with prefixes then?

Like a message command instead of slash command?

[young bone]

the same like a slash command

[errant crane]

Here's the basic bot example.

[young bone]

@median ridge

[median ridge]

Thanks man

[errant crane]

Here's the audio recording example.

[amber shale]

is there any to change guilds in not global commands while bot is running?

[solemn idol]

Is there a way to check if a command has options?

and if it has, to print out those options

as plain text ig

[cobalt tangle]

cmd.options

[twilit valley]

Is there a way to modify an options list when executing a slash command based on previous options already selected

so for example if you run a slash command with 2 arguments is there a way to modify the options list for the second argument based on what you chose for the first argument

[full basin]

Use autocomplete

[errant crane]

Here's the slash autocomplete example.

[full basin]

AutocompleteContext has a options attribute

[toxic python]

How to get the icon_url from the user in a cog?

This doesnt work anymore

[full basin]

ctx has no user attribute

It's author

You literally typed it in the footer text.

[toxic python]

yeahhh..

so ctx.author.display_avatar.url or user.display_avatar.url or something completly diffrent?

[full basin]

..

[solemn idol]

any way to just get the name of the Option(s) out of the string?

[toxic python]

no. ctx.user.display_avatar_url does work lol

because user is defined as a discord.Member or as the author

[cobalt tangle]

um

it returns a list of discord.Option's

get the discord.Option from docs

[full basin]

Then use user.display_avatar.url. Don't add a ctx. What i said still stands, the context object has no user attribute, its author. Don't expect me to know how your code works when you provide 2 lines of it.

[toxic python]

yep i know, i will try it

thx for the help buddy

[solemn idol]

Yes I know how to get the Options, but it returns me this list:
[<discord.commands.Option name=member>, <discord.commands.Option name=reason>]

And I was wondering if I can just get the value of name=x out of the string, since doing it with .find() is a huge pain.

[solemn idol]

that list is of a command which has the options "member" and "reason" obviously.

[full basin]

Then just get the attribute...

[solemn idol]

wdym

[full basin]

If you want the name, then just loop again and get the names

[solemn idol]

or that..

[full basin]

options = [option.name for option in cmd.options]```

[solemn idol]

yeah, thanks

[fervent cradle]

[full basin]

Your button init takes no arguments. Don't know why you're passing one

[burnt fjord]

Is there a way to change the thinking message? Like from [bot] is thinking... to something custom?

[rare ice]

no, that's a Discord limitation.

[burnt fjord]

Ah okay. Well, for one command that routinely takes around 40 seconds to generate something, I have it respond with message = await ctx.respond('please wait around 40-60 seconds'), and then after send the thing it generates (embed). Right now, it does await ctx.followup.send(file=file, embed=embed). How do I get it to delete the old message and reply the embed to the original command? or at least ping the user? Mainly having trouble with the deleting old message part as message.delete() doesn't work

[silver moat]

why not edit?

[burnt fjord]

Oh yeah true, how would I do that

[silver moat]

.rtfm applicationcontext.edit

[winter condor]

2 results

discord.ApplicationContext.edit
bridge.BridgeApplicationContext.edit

[burnt fjord]

Thanks! Works just like I wanted it to

[amber shale]

is ti possible to make our own activity in voice channels?

[frail matrix]

How can I print something to console whenever someone joins a voice channel?

[limber urchin]

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

[frail matrix]

Is there anywhere I can find examples on how to use that?

[limber urchin]

You use it like any other event listener

[round rivet]

No

[amber shale]

why?

discord dont allows it?

[round rivet]

Why would you be able to

[amber shale]

it looks more interactive

[ruby yew]

hey! when using attachments in slashcommands (SlashCommandOptionType.attachment, or equivalently 11), is it expected that the attachment is an actual image (like sending an image over a message) or is it the url to an image? ive been under the impression for some time that it was the former so i thought i'd get some clarification

edit: attachments as an input option / parameter

[limber urchin]

An attachment is a file, not a url

[ruby yew]

can it be attached through conventional copy pasting?

[limber urchin]

Why would the method you use to attach it matter?

[ruby yew]

at the moment, pasting an image doesnt seem to do anything, and i can only enter strings (which get accepted when i send the command, which is why i started thinking it might be a url).
Option(name="image", description="Image containing riven.", input_type=SlashCommandOptionType.attachment),
i can open a separate thread if this requires a deeper look

[ruby yew]

i've moved this to #1050319151324999690 to keep it clean here

[tired goblet]

How can i send mesage to a specific channel in my server? The bot has admin rights

[limber urchin]

Get the channel object, and use https://docs.pycord.dev/en/stable/api/abcs.html#discord.abc.Messageable.send

[amber shale]

is a slash command group counted as one command here?

[tired goblet]

Thanks

[west vault]

No

[west vault]

Well.. not gonna go into detail

Discord limits creation of activities to selected partners of the company. There is an apply form for it but they don’t accept normal users

[amber shale]

thanks

[chilly silo]

How do I use the discord.Build() class?
I don't know what to put in the arguments.

[limber urchin]

There is no such thing as discord.Build in pycord

[chilly silo]

Oh,sorry

discord.Guild() class

[limber urchin]

Why do you want to manually create an instance of a guild?

[chilly silo]

To automate the creation of roles using the bot's slash command.

[limber urchin]

There is no reason to create a new instance of a guild class for that

Just access the guild from the commands ctx

[chilly silo]

So how do you use the create_role() method?

[limber urchin]

read the docs

[chilly silo]

From what I saw, I thought it would use the create_role() method of the discord.Guild() class.

[limber urchin]

yes?

[chilly silo]

I'll try again.
Thanks.

[frail matrix]

Is there a limit to how many options you can have in a select menu?

[cobalt tangle]

My bot's ping is very bad even though the network speed is fine

any clue why?

class Bot(bridge.Bot):
    def __init__(self, command_prefix="c!", help_command=MyNewHelp()):
        super().__init__(command_prefix, help_command, intents=intents, owner_id=871024566472966175)
    async def on_ready(self):
        setattr(bot, "db", await aiosqlite.connect("databases/bot.sqlite"))
        bot.db = await aiosqlite.connect("databases/bot.sqlite")
        await asyncio.sleep(3)
        async with bot.db.cursor() as cur:
            await cur.execute("CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS member (health INTEGER, id TEXT, status TEXT)")
            await cur.execute("CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS memberstats (attacks INTEGER, sword TEXT, defense INTEGER, id INTEGER)")

            #Deaths (Instant revive)
            await cur.execute("SELECT * FROM member WHERE status = ?", ("Dead",))
            r = await cur.fetchall()
            for x in r:
                await cur.execute("UPDATE member SET status = ? WHERE id = ?", ("Alive", x[1],))
                await cur.execute("UPDATE member SET health = ? WHERE id = ?", (1, x[1],))
        await bot.db.commit()

[cobalt tangle]

my bot class

[limber urchin]

Where is your bot hosted?

[cobalt tangle]

nvm

i have another question

[limber urchin]

?

[cobalt tangle]

so i use

async def kill(bot, user, time):
    async with bot.db.cursor() as cur:
        await cur.execute("UPDATE member SET status = ? WHERE id = ?", ("Unconcious", str(user.id),))
        await cur.execute("UPDATE member SET health = ? WHERE id = ?", (0, str(user.id),))
    await bot.db.commit()
    await asyncio.sleep(time)
    async with bot.db.cursor() as cur:
        await cur.execute("UPDATE member SET status = ? WHERE id = ?", ("Alive", str(user.id),))
        await cur.execute("UPDATE member SET health = ? WHERE id = ?", (100, str(user.id),))
    await bot.db.commit()
``` this

when someone's health is 0

but this stops my stab command for 60 seconds as this sleeps for 60s

how do I let the stab cmd go through and as well as do this in the background?

[limber urchin]

don't ping me

[cobalt tangle]

ok

sorry

[cobalt tangle]

nvm fixed guys

[worn void]

How can I find which invite a person joined with and then find who made that invite

[tired goblet]

how do i get a channel object? i have the channel id

[winged zephyr]

second is my code

why does it give this eror

[limber urchin]

Don't name the parameter message, it's not a message it's an ApplicationContext object.

And use .respond

[limber urchin]

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

[winged zephyr]

i used respond but it still gave error

[limber urchin]

show your code

[tired goblet]

does that mean i need a guild object first?

[limber urchin]

https://docs.pycord.dev/en/stable/api/clients.html#discord.Client.get_channel

I do not see any .respond here...

[winged zephyr]

it send error so i removed it

wait i add and show u

[tired goblet]

thanks, i was trying this:

is that wrong?

[limber urchin]

Try it and see

[tired goblet]

i give it a valid channel id from my server and it prints None

[limber urchin]

Then it's not cached, use https://docs.pycord.dev/en/stable/api/clients.html#discord.Bot.fetch_channel

[tired goblet]

means it cant find the channel?

[tired goblet]

oh okay

[dapper flare]

message = "asfasfsad"
    await message.channel.send("you passed ", user)```

why does this not work?

[limber urchin]

"not work" is useless, show errors or explain how it doesn't work

[dapper flare]

oo

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

[limber urchin]

Wait, you're actually trying to use .channel on a string?

[dapper flare]

@client.slash_command(name="pass")
async def testt(ctx, user:Option(discord.Member, "who passed in the forum o-o"), channel: discord.TextChannel):
    #channel = client.get_channel(1050359690384638043)
    message = "asfasfsad"
    await message.channel.send("you passed ", user)```

[limber urchin]

why?

[dapper flare]

i want to send message to an channel

[tired goblet]

thank you

[limber urchin]

And why would "asfasfsad".channel give you a channel? It's just a random string?

[dapper flare]

oh

yea im dumb

discord.errors.ApplicationCommandInvokeError: Application Command raised an exception: TypeError: Messageable.send() takes from 1 to 2 positional arguments but 3 were given

@client.slash_command(name="pass")
async def testt(ctx, user:Option(discord.Member, "who passed in the forum o-o"), channel: discord.TextChannel):
    channel = client.get_channel(1050359690384638043)
    await channel.send("you passed ", user)```

i also tried this

[limber urchin]

because send only takes one positional argument, the others are keyword only

[dapper flare]

how can i fix it?

[limber urchin]

Read the docs

https://docs.pycord.dev/en/stable/api/abcs.html#discord.abc.Messageable.send

[vale heath]

And why are you pre defining channel when you taking channel in cmd 🤔

[dapper flare]

i tried it ends here i cant seem to find how it works

[winged zephyr]

thanks i got it my error was i was doin message.channel.respond instead of message.respond

[limber urchin]

Then you need to read rule 1 in #help-rules

[vale heath]

Through error handling 🤔

[agile minnow]

how to play another song after the previous song ends?
Just a reference or a hint is fine for me

[tired goblet]

how do i send message in a channel without an event? like i don't want the message to be sent when a command is invoked or when a member joins, i just want it sent

[cobalt tangle]

like every 10 mins or smth?

[tired goblet]

yeah

[cobalt tangle]

https://docs.pycord.dev/en/stable/ext/tasks/index.html I think ur looking for this

[cobalt tangle]

then ur looking for that

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

[tired goblet]

thank you

one quick question, if the documentation says that a function is a coroutine, what does that mean?

[cobalt tangle]

it means it has to be a async def

not def

[tired goblet]

oh

okay maybe i should learn asyncio first

[cobalt tangle]

yep

[tired goblet]

thanks

[cobalt tangle]

np

[tired goblet]

hi, the pycord introduction lists these topics to be learnt before building discord bots. i think i know up till loops. i would like to start with classes. any good tutorial online for that? thanks

[young bone]

you first have to learn the basic´s of python

[tired goblet]

i think i know the basics, so i would like to start with classes

const token = config.token
const { Client } = require('discord.js')
const client = new Client({intents:[]})

client.once("ready", () => {

console.log('ich bin online')

Is there something false?

if I do index.js it doesnt work

[pallid seal]

no js?

[woeful spindle]

no..

[atomic wolf]

Is there a way to disable a select menu after it was used?

[full basin]

Select has a disabled attribute which is a boolean. Then when responding edit the message and provide the view again.

[atomic wolf]

I mean directly after someone chooses an option

[full basin]

Yes

That's what you do lol

[atomic wolf]

Without editing the message

[full basin]

You must edit the message

It's like trying to get Cash from the ATM without putting your card in it.

[weak marlin]

Can I run multiple bots on one vps, like ovh?

[undone falcon]

I was just wandering if there is any downside of using py-cord[speed] instead of the regular version ?

[limber urchin]

what?

[west vault]

then you would work with a stream instead

[fervent cradle]

How to edit a respond?

[undone falcon]

If I am getting a lot of OperationalError: database is locked, does it mean I should switch database away from SQlite ?

[proud pagoda]

Is it possible to access a user's roles from interaction.user?

Or do I need the member intent

[limber urchin]

It probably means you're accessing your database in parallel way too frequently, or you're doing something wrong that's causing it to not unlock

[proud pagoda]

nvm I fixed it

[undone falcon]

yeah I do a lot of parallel access.

[limber urchin]

Then you should find a way to decrease the load on your database

[undone falcon]

I see, I heard some database supports parallel access much better than SQLite, maybe I will need to change databases

[limber urchin]

To me it sounds like you need to find a better way to handle your data, switching to another database is just ignoring the root problem

[undone falcon]

I see, I am pretty new to databases in general, it is possible I am doing thing hte wrong ways to

You are rigth, I should try to see if it is possible to fix it first !

[limber urchin]

What is the reason you're accessing it so often?

[undone falcon]

I have a loop in the background removing roles. My bot is timed roles. But at the same time I get user that want to had new roles

[rare ice]

i recommend MongoDB

[limber urchin]

And how often does this loop run?

[undone falcon]

each minutes

But I am doing remot operation to discord in the database, maybe it is that

[limber urchin]

Querying your database once per minute is not even close to being too often

[undone falcon]

but sometime the loops itself last more than 1 minutes

[limber urchin]

and what do you mean by "remot operation to discord in the database"?

[undone falcon]

because it takes a long time removing all the roles

20 ms per remove call to discord

[limber urchin]

It takes more than a minute to remove roles from a user? Why?

[undone falcon]

for exemple if I have 1000 roles to removes

it will take more than 1 minutes

[limber urchin]

It is literally impossible for a member to have 1000 roles

[undone falcon]

roles on differents members

not the same

[limber urchin]

Well in that case you shouldn't be reading or writing to your database until you're sure your bot is done removing the roles

[undone falcon]

Here is the remove exemple:

The remove is after

I try to remove all the expired role, If it succeed I had it to a list. After the get I do a delete on all the deleted roles

But yeah thank you for your help ! I will try to find the place that is using to much write operation, it is probably somewhere

[fervent cradle]

Hey, how i can get the main channel from a server?
i can't find in the docs to this

[rare ice]

What do you mean by main channel?

[young bone]

maybe the system channels

[rare ice]

If you mean a general chat like #general, you can’t since that’s a Discord limitation.

[fervent cradle]

Too bad.. but thanks for you answer

[burnt fjord]

So I went ahead and got rid of the guilds=... paramater on all of my slash commands because I want to make them global, but now im getting the All application names must be unique error, and ive triple checked all of the commands. Ive noticed that only the bot.py commands are loaded, and theres two of every one??

Is it because they are still guild-specific commands? If so, I thought the bot.sync_commands() fixed that

[silver moat]

You can run an empty bot (one with just bot.run and no events or cogs or commands) to de-register all commands and re-register them.

[burnt fjord]

what is going on

I just ran the empty bot and now

I would also like to point out that none of these fake ghost commands do anything and just time out

(I commented out them all in the code)

[silver moat]

Refresh your discord app

command/control + R

[burnt fjord]

Okay the ghost commands are gone ill try the full code again (without cogs loaded)

okay it seems that two commands somewhere in the cogs are conflicting so ill reload the bot one cog at a time added to see

[silver moat]

ok

[burnt fjord]

oh my god i think i found it
i did actually have two commands named the same in a cog im so sorry I hope you have a good rest of your day mr. squid

[silver moat]

same to you.

[burnt fjord]

Also, I thought global commands take like an hour to update, these came on immediately

[fringe socket]

awwwww this is amazing! for once people are being nice in #969574202413838426

[silver moat]

yeah discord reworked them

[fringe socket]

lol

[burnt fjord]

so this whole time i could have not been importing a list of guilds the bot is in and passing that through the slash command

[silver moat]

yeah

[midnight torrent]

can paginators not respond to interactions that have been defered ephemerally?

with ephemeral=True

paginator forms but is un useable

with ephemeral=False it works fine no errors paginator works as intended

[verbal marten]

Not sure why the view isn't functioning but once you make a response ephemeral it cannot change to be a normal response, which is why it errored.

[midnight torrent]

ahhh i see

so i guess i just ephermal the final response if possible

[verbal marten]

Yeah, or if you don't pass the ephemeral arg it will default to true iirc

Do you get interaction failed hen you try to interact with the paginator?

[midnight torrent]

yeah

also got one when i moved ephermal to the paginator respond

[verbal marten]

Strange, the other errors regarding this is when people pass ctx into .respond() but you've already got it as an interaction

[midnight torrent]

yeah, im not sure

and the fact its not throwing an error is even weirder

my error handler catches everything

[viscid rapids]

member.roles returns a list of objects I think, is there a way to get only a list of the role names? is there a method for that, or is there something I can do with code.

[<Role id=1047755837541720115 name='@everyone'>, <Role id=1050590117363974267 name='b'>, <Role id=1050590093825544233 name='t'>]

[silver moat]

[role.name for role in member.roles]

[viscid rapids]

tysm * 2

[fast badger]

this code can't iterate through any members but the bot itself
any idea why?
for g in bot.guilds: print(f"Checking {g.name}...") for member in g.members: if member.bot == True: break else: print(f'Checking {member.name}...') await writeuserdata(member.id)

[cobalt tangle]

u have intents?

[fast badger]

which ones do i need?

[cobalt tangle]

members

also use async for lol

[fast badger]

no i don't, is there anyway i can add it alongside discord.Intents.default() without getting an error?

[cobalt tangle]

i = discord.Intents.default()
i.members = True

@fast badger make sure to enable it in discord dev portal

[fast badger]

that doesnt work on lists

[cobalt tangle]

ok did the intents work?

[fast badger]

yeah, i just had to do that and tweak some other stuff and it works now, tysm!

[cobalt tangle]

alr

[verbal gulch]

Hello! May i ask why my code is not working? It should send a message every 5 seconds to every channel registered. ```py
@tasks.loop(seconds=5)
async def autoad():
try:
all_configs = configguilds.find()
for config in all_configs:
all_ads = autoads.find()
for ad in all_ads:
try:
await bot.get_channel(config['bumpcid']).send(ad['advertisement'])
except:
pass
except:
pass

@bot.event
async def on_ready():
autoad.start()

(I don't get any error)

[quartz thunder]

Hey is there a way to make a multiselect discord.Option ?

(from a command)

[full basin]

You won't cause you passed every except lol. Remove them

[full basin]

And what's a multiselect for you?

[quartz thunder]

Multiselect=user can check 1 or more options

[verbal gulch]

I still don't get any error.

[full basin]

You can't. Unless you take a string and parse it yourself.

[quartz thunder]

Dirty but efficient ahah ok thanks

[full basin]

Why don't you use a select menu

[quartz thunder]

Have you an example pls ?

[errant crane]

Here's the dropdown example.

[full basin]

@quartz thunder

[quartz thunder]

Thanks dark, checking it 🙂

[true pewter]

Has anyone tried returning a .json? I'm trying to get the message to return a .json and I can't get it to return a .json.

    @commands.slash_command(name="dict")
    async def return_json_test(self, ctx):
        dict_test = {
            "10": "test"
        }

        dict_to_str = json.dumps(dict_test)
        await ctx.respond(dict_to_str)

        return_file = discord.File(filename="test.json", description="test", fp=dict_to_str)
        print(type(return_file))

        await ctx.respond("Here's your file!", file=return_file)

[proud mason]

You have to save the file locally. Or convert the json to bytesio

[true pewter]

Then the idea will be to convert it to bytesio

thx

@proud mason

[proud mason]

Hmm what did you try

Send the code

[true pewter]

    @commands.slash_command(name="dict")
    async def return_json_test(self, ctx):
        dict_test = {
            "10": "test"
        }

        await ctx.respond(json.dumps(dict_test))
        json_bytes = json.dumps(dict_test).encode("utf-8")

        await ctx.respond(file=discord.File(fp=json_bytes, filename="test.json"))

[proud mason]

Try wrapping json_bytes in io.BytesIO

And pass that to fp

Cuz discord.File runs open on it

[true pewter]

bytes_io = io.BytesIO(json.dumps(dict_test).encode())

okay okay

work perfect

[young bone]

Well... it is so much easier to do

[true pewter]

How?

[dapper flare]

how can i edit vc role permissions

[full basin]

.rtfm VoiceChannel.edit

[winter condor]

1 results

discord.VoiceChannel.edit

[cobalt tangle]

Why can't we get the nitro badges? Is this a library limitation or discord one?

[full basin]

I think discords

You have premium_since iirc

But I think it's for server boosting, not nitro

.rtfm premium_since

[winter condor]

1 results

discord.Member.premium_since

[west vault]

a message every 5 seconds to every channel registered
Are you ok? That's spam.
And discord will ratelimit you hard. Or might even block your bot for api abuse.

[verbal gulch]

I was testing- in the future imma make it 6 hours

[west vault]

even for testing that's too much

.rtfm premium_type

[winter condor]

Target not found, try again and make sure to check your spelling.

[west vault]

hmm

[west vault]

that's only possible via oauth and the field would be premium_type
Discord doesn't allow bots to read that normally, because that's not an user information bots are supposed to know / log

[dapper flare]

@commands.has_permissions(administrator=True)
@client.slash_command(name="fjoin")
async def fjoin(ctx):
    channelid = 1050359690384638044
    channel = client.get_channel(channelid)
    overwrite = discord.PermissionOverwrite(connect=False)
    role = discord.utils.get(ctx.guild.roles, name=c.forum_role_name)
    print("Aaaa")
    await channel.edit(overwrites=[role, overwrite]) # issue is here
    print("got here")
    await ctx.respond("done")```

i don't get an error

but the command dosen't work aswell

[west vault]

where tf is c definied
why tf don't you defer the command on such a long operation (channel get, role get, channel edit)

You should read the docs a bit more and see the examples in our repo.
That might help

[dapper flare]

c is an config file 😅 , can u provide me the link to it that would be helpful

[west vault]

sigh.. we're lazy huh?

[dapper flare]

oh alright lol

[errant crane]

Here's the slash basic example.

[cobalt tangle]

Well Wick does it?

[west vault]

who tf is wick

[cobalt tangle]

It's a bot

Popular one

[west vault]

then they're probably self botting for that

[cobalt tangle]

No

[west vault]

yes, that's all info bots get from discord

[cobalt tangle]

It's an actual bot, which has shards and is very popular

[west vault]

yeah they still could make an seperate api call with a self bot to get the info

[cobalt tangle]

Oh

Is self bot even allowed

In discord

[west vault]

not at all

[cobalt tangle]

I would suspect then how tf Wick got into App Directory and got verified

Alr thanks for the info

[west vault]

they would've to get this data part and bots don't have access to that route

[west vault]

bcs discord can't check everything

[cobalt tangle]

Also is the bridge command not having the parent attribute issue fixed?

[west vault]

look into the prs/issues/changelog
idk

[cobalt tangle]

Degraded to 2.3.0 rn

[cobalt tangle]

Alright it said waiting for adding it to changelog earlier today, I'll check it again

[severe storm]

hey, how can i calculate how much time passed since there was a message in a channel?

[west vault]

I give you two hints:
1: Look into the docs of the util functions
2: The image

[severe storm]

is there not something like message.created_at()?

update: there is

[west vault]

It’s a helper method :D

Actually I didn’t knew myself

[severe storm]

[cobalt tangle]

Sometimes, devs don't look at changelogs

[west vault]

I’m just doing Management

[cobalt tangle]

[west vault]

I have my own lib to maintain. Can’t remember the whole pycord lib

[cobalt tangle]

lol

I ❤ dog

[cobalt tangle]

Could've checked before asking

[west vault]

All dogs I have on this acc rn

[cobalt tangle]

Nowadays searching things in the new docs is difficult tbh, if I search discord.Member, i have to scroll down for ages

[cobalt tangle]

I don't like the 4th, 9th one

[west vault]

Yeah. We know that and we’re trying to rework that. But it isn’t easy

[cobalt tangle]

Others are lovely

[young bone]

Why not cats?

[cobalt tangle]

Just are too shy

We r discussing in help channel

Lol

[west vault]

Don’t ask for cat that would flood the chat

[young bone]

[cobalt tangle]

I no have nitro rip

[young bone]

Cats are great!

[west vault]

[cobalt tangle]

Dogs better

[young bone]

no

[west vault]

sushi

[cobalt tangle]

I have too many images in my keyboard

[west vault]

That’s too much

[cobalt tangle]

Lol

[west vault]

Anyways

[cobalt tangle]

Members who don't have nitro :

[west vault]

L

[cobalt tangle]

Yeah let's either move to general or yeah

[silent meadow]

heyo

how do we get the avtar of a user?

[young bone]

discord.Member

[silent meadow]

yeah what after that?

i get an error

[young bone]

show the code where you want to use the avatar

[silent meadow]

one sec

i = await self.bot.application_info()
        member = i.owner
embed.set_thumbnail(url=member.avatar_url)`

[young bone]

avatar.url

[silent meadow]

it says

no attribute

so

[young bone]

do you use discord.py or py-cord?

[silent meadow]

py-cord forsho

[glossy sand]

            await ctx.respond(embed=my_embed, view=my_view, ephemeral=True)

doesn't send an ephemeral response but a normal one, why?

[silent meadow]

checkout my_view if you have mentioned the opposite

[glossy sand]

I though you only needed to pass ephemeral argument to ctx.respond()?

[silent meadow]

if my_view is classed then it kinda overrides i think

[west vault]

nope

that has nothing to do with it

[silent meadow]

oh

okayyy

i am just a learner lol

please dont mind me 😬

[glossy sand]

is okay

[silent meadow]

also a little help here

[cobalt tangle]

Pycord version?

[west vault]

isn't it throwing any errors or something?
u sure that the code is correct?

Did you looked at the docs / examples

bcs i don't know it myself.
i just can say how it's handled at discords end

[cobalt tangle]

Oh wait

You have the intents enabled?

I'm pretty sure u don't and .owner is returning None

[silent meadow]

AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'url'

[cobalt tangle]

Ohhh

User doesn't have avatar

[west vault]

why is there an `

[silent meadow]

where?

oh

[cobalt tangle]

Prob an error while code blocking it

[west vault]

maybe, but maybe not

[silent meadow]

thats not the part of code

[cobalt tangle]

That would've raised a whole new error

Lmfao

[silent meadow]

yeah

[west vault]

welp

[cobalt tangle]

^

Or ur getting a partial member

Just make sure .owner is a discord.Member type and user has an avatar

[silent meadow]

i am the owner ofc

[cobalt tangle]

And if .owner isn't discord.Member or .User, make sure u have intents

[silent meadow]

and i have an avtar

[cobalt tangle]

Check the type

Of .owner

[silent meadow]

yeah one sec

i am checking if intents are on

[west vault]

for the app info user you don't need the intent for avatar normally

[cobalt tangle]

Who knows

I'm a guy that is dumb

Maybe

I.owner gets a member so...? I'm not sure

[silent meadow]

all intents are on

and owner is user type

[cobalt tangle]

Hm

[west vault]

nyaw!eval ```cs
return Client.CurrentApplication.Owners.First().AvatarUrl;

[finite timber]

yep

[silent meadow]

mhmmmmmmm

[cobalt tangle]

member.avatar.url

It should work

[west vault]

it isn't a member

it's a user

they just named it member

[silent meadow]

can I like copypasta

[cobalt tangle]

He just named it that

[west vault]

no, that's c#

[cobalt tangle]

Lol

[silent meadow]

bigbren u are

[cobalt tangle]

That is no where close to py

[west vault]

i just hate python

[silent meadow]

still working for pycord tho?

[errant crane]

Returns an :class:`Asset` for the avatar the user has.

If the user does not have a traditional avatar, ``None`` is returned.
If you want the avatar that a user has displayed, consider :attr:`display_avatar`.```

[west vault]

ah wait i see

owner is a discord.User object in pycord

[cobalt tangle]

Yes

[west vault]

but discord returns owner as a list of users

[silent meadow]

oof

my bot is in a team app

[west vault]

so basically, if you have a team, you can't get the single owner like that i think

[silent meadow]

but only i am the owner

[cobalt tangle]

He got a discord.User though

[silent meadow]

like only 1 guy in a team

[cobalt tangle]

@silent meadow does .id work

[silent meadow]

not sure

[cobalt tangle]

Try it

[silent meadow]

lemme tias

[cobalt tangle]

If so just fetch a user

[west vault]

if it doesn't work:

call discord.AppInfo.team
there the first discord.Team.members
and from that discord.TeamMember.avatar

that might work

[silent meadow]

imma just move it outta the team

[cobalt tangle]

Just see if the .id works

[west vault]

seems like pycord does something weird for owner

        self.owner: User = state.create_user(data["owner"])

[cobalt tangle]

My brain hurts a bit

[west vault]

https://github.com/Pycord-Development/pycord/blob/master/discord/appinfo.py#L147

[errant crane]

discord/appinfo.py line 147

self.owner: User = state.create_user(data["owner"])```

[silent meadow]

i did id did

[west vault]

goes to https://github.com/Pycord-Development/pycord/blob/master/discord/state.py#L364-L365

[cobalt tangle]

Then fetch a user

[errant crane]

discord/state.py lines 364 to 365

def create_user(self, data: UserPayload) -> User:
    return User(state=self, data=data)```

[west vault]

oh it worked?

lol

[cobalt tangle]

await bot.fetch_user(id)

[silent meadow]

it does not

[west vault]

o

[cobalt tangle]

man just switched the tables

[silent meadow]

ikr

[west vault]

its so weird

[silent meadow]

but it does not :(

[cobalt tangle]

I feel like this is a bug

[silent meadow]

finally

[cobalt tangle]

@silent meadow are u sure the type is discord.User

[silent meadow]

yep

uk what imma rewrite the code once

just to mkae sure

[cobalt tangle]

R u gonna be the only owner

[silent meadow]

yessir

[cobalt tangle]

If so, just input ur freaking id and fetch it

await bot.fetch_user(urid)

[silent meadow]

okay wtaf

AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'url'

this is way to dumb

[cobalt tangle]

GOD

Is there a guild where u will never leave

[silent meadow]

yea

a lot of em

[cobalt tangle]

Do await guild.fetch_member(urid)

Make sure the bot is inside it

[silent meadow]

yea

one sec

[west vault]

Normally we should handle it in pycord like this: https://github.com/Aiko-IT-Systems/DisCatSharp/blob/main/DisCatSharp/Clients/BaseDiscordClient.cs#L197-L220

[errant crane]

DisCatSharp/Clients/BaseDiscordClient.cs lines 197 to 220

	app.Team = new DiscordTeam(tapp.Team);

	var members = tapp.Team.Members

	app.TeamName = app.Team.Name;
}```

[cobalt tangle]

Please explain

That code means nothing to me

[silent meadow]

bruh.

bruhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

[young bone]

It is C#

[silent meadow]

imma die

i-

[rare ice]

c# in a python library server

[silent meadow]

bro

[cobalt tangle]

Ykw just set ur ID in the bot

[silent meadow]

no

it worked

⚰️

[west vault]

1: working with a list or array of owners in any case
-> if we have no team detected (team = None), init new list of owners with just the raw owner
-> if we have a team, build the list of the owners from the team members object

[cobalt tangle]

Don't turn the tables again

[young bone]

should I start with rust? xd

[silent meadow]

yes it did fr

[west vault]

i'm the only one banning for that and i won't ban if i take part in this shit

[cobalt tangle]

Uhhh that's not possible to get a ban
