discord.Message is not a valid slash command option type. it might be possible that the library is trying to find it for you

the issue with using discord.Message is that if a user passes id of an older message, which isnt in bot's cache, then it will raise MessageNotFound. this might be an issue depending on your use case

limber urchin
Pass it to your buttons init function and assign it as an attribute to the class
mild sigil
super().__init__(timeout=10)
self.ctx = ctx```minus the timeout
though probably a good idea unless you want it forever active
limber urchin
Timeout defaults to 180 seconds. You need to explicitly set it to None to remove the timeout
mild sigil
thanks, good to know
limber urchin
And how does your code look?
That is not how it works
You assigned ctx to self.ctx
proud mason
1st parameter of callback is button, not ctx
you can get the person who clicked the button from interaction.user
limber urchin
When you assign something to self. You can access that attribute from anywhere within the class instance.
Through self.<attribute>. But yeah, like Om is saying you don't even need ctx in your case.
proud mason
you can get the person who clicked the button from interaction.user
Although that may or may not be your intended approach (as person who ran the cmd might be different from the person that clicked the button)
limber urchin

yes
proud mason
you can create fresh view and edit the message with that if you want
Although there can be a better approach which im not aware of
loud sail
How do you mean?
proud mason
How do you mean?
well, create a new view in the select menu callback, and do interaction.message.edit(view=new_view)
limber urchin
You would have to stop the interaction and return a message saying something like "You are not allowed to use this button" or something.
aka returning the callback before anything happens
proud mason
you can also send the view in an ephemeral message so you can avoid this altogether

you're waiting twice
you should do x = await modal.wait() and then check that
that code will fail anyway because 1) you don't respond with the callback interaction and 2) you're responding to an interaction twice
is there any reason that last if block can't be in the modal callback?

cyan quail
i'd say add a new attribute to your modal __init__ to pass the buttons through
then you can access them in the callback easily
though wait isn't necessarily bad, but sometimes it overcomplicates things when dealing with timeouts

well for example, this is your own code py class SubmitModal(discord.ui.Modal): def __init__(self, title="Submition Confirmation"): super().__init__(...) you've already added your own title attribute, which you pass into super as it's necessary for the Modal class. However, arguments you add here don't have to be super'd; they can simply exist as an attribute of your custom class```py
class SubmitModal(discord.ui.Modal):
def init(self, title="Submition Confirmation", bot=None):
super().init(...)
self.bot = bot
...
async def some_function(self):
return self.bot.name
if you've ever made a cog, you've probably read self.bot = bot dozens, if not hundreds of times; all you're doing is picking and choosing attributes
fallen cove
if you've ever made a cog, you've probably read `self.bot = bot` dozens, if not ...
ah okie.
so if i pass btn as an argument, and add self.btn = btn in the __init__. how do you make the btn arg = the buttons in the view?
cyan quail
well it refers to the same object; you aren't creating a new btn, self.btn would be equal to the original btn you passed in
fallen cove
well it refers to the same object; you aren't creating a new `btn`, `self.btn` w...
this is where i get confused
cyan quail
So let's go with your example ```py
class SubmitModal(discord.ui.Modal):
def init(self, title="Submition Confirmation", btn=None):
super().init(...)
self.btn = btn
async def callback(self, interaction):
...
self.btn.disabled = True
await interaction.response.edit_message(...)
...
button = discord.ui.Button(label="...")
modal = SubmitModal(btn=button)
```this code is bs but just for the sake of demonstration; we've defined a variable button which is a new Button. When we call SubmitModal, we pass button in which is assigned to self.btn inside the Modal. You can consider self.btn is button, so doing anything to self.btn is the same as doing the same action on button.
But in the context of editing a View, this is a bad approach and may be where you're getting confused.
A better method would be to pass the entire view as a variable and work on view.children, like you were already doing after your wait ```py
class SubmitModal(discord.ui.Modal):
def init(self, view, title="Submition Confirmation"): # view is required
super().init(...)
self.view = view
async def callback(self, interaction):
for button in self.view.children:
... # do stuff with the buttons, or use view.disable_all_children()
self.view.children[0].label = "..."
await interaction.response.edit_message(...)```
ah okie, sort of starting to understand how it works, any recommendations on how to more comfortable with OOP?

you don't need globals for that, at all

not too hard
are you using those variables in the same class as that button callback?

what is the 25 button limit, are you talking about button rows and columns

yes, there is a limit of 25 buttons

Need to keep track of a variable between functions? No problem!
⚠️ Careful what you name it though, else you might overwrite something ⚠️
Just add it to your commands.Bot or discord.Client instance like so:
bot = commands.Bot(...)
bot.my_variable = 0
async def foo():
bot.my_variable += 1
# In a cog
@commands.command()
async def counter(self,ctx):
await ctx.send("Current Counter is at {}".format(ctx.bot.my_variable))
This also allows you to access this from other cogs/extensions/functions. Anywhere you have access to the bot instance
proud mason
Is this what you are looking for?
full basin
You pass parameters when calling the function
You're calling the function
code is just the parameter name on the Code function
fervent cradle
but I have to enter the "code" parameter when calling the function, I get a "missing 1 required positional argument: 'code'" error if I don't
and if I do, it's just undefined, so idk what to do

Because interaction.user will never be in the players list, you're storing ids

hey, with buttons, how do i use server emojis?
grizzled sentinel
Please show your code
Your Mybutton class is fine.
However you generally would not have your cog (Simonsays) inherit from a view that does not make much sense. Also to use players you need an instance of the class the definition of the class here players = Mybutton.players. (Instance is when you do mybtn_instance = Mybutton(player_string) like what you have in ctx.respond)
Overall I recommend brushing up a little bit on how classes work in python.
grizzled sentinel
hey, with buttons, how do i use server emojis?
Pass the emoji object. You can find the custom guild emojis with
https://docs.pycord.dev/en/stable/api/models.html#discord.Guild.emojis
You could also use utils.get if you know the ID of the specific emoji.
https://docs.pycord.dev/en/stable/api/utils.html#discord.utils.get
players would than be a instance of Mybutton so to get the list of players you would need to do players.players but yes that would be how you would do it.

Need to keep track of a variable between functions? No problem!
⚠️ Careful what you name it though, else you might overwrite something ⚠️
Just add it to your commands.Bot or discord.Client instance like so:
bot = commands.Bot(...)
bot.my_variable = 0
async def foo():
bot.my_variable += 1
# In a cog
@commands.command()
async def counter(self,ctx):
await ctx.send("Current Counter is at {}".format(ctx.bot.my_variable))
This also allows you to access this from other cogs/extensions/functions. Anywhere you have access to the bot instance

So I have a view with an embed. Buttons are displayed under the embed.

subclass discord.ui.Button and programmatically add the buttons in view init
This is my view with my embed:

self.bot = bot
self.spotdaten = spotdaten
self.embed = discord.Embed(title="Fertig",
description=f"Fertig",

super().__init__(timeout=None)
@discord.ui.button(label='Wetter', custom_id="Wetter_Button", style=discord.ButtonStyle.primary, disabled=True)
async def wetter_button(self, button: discord.ui.Button, interaction: discord.Interaction):
await interaction.channel.send(view=await WetterView(self.bot, self.spotdaten))
await interaction.response.defer()```
And after the button click, this view will be called:
```py
class WetterView(discord.ui.View):
async def __new__(cls, *args, **kwargs):
obj = super().__new__(cls)
await obj.__init__(*args, **kwargs)
return obj
async def __init__(self, bot: discord.Bot, spotdaten):
self.bot = bot
super().__init__(await Wetter(self.bot, spotdaten))```
Here a ui.Select is created and after I have selected something there the OptionalView is called again and appears under the select menu.
The whole thing should now be so that the button is disabled and you can no longer click on it.how do i have to declare this?

obtuse juncoBOT
Why you should not use the requests library for your bot
requests is a popular HTTP library for Python. It is however not a good option for Discord bots, since it is not async and blocking.
This essentially means that your bot will not be able to execute any code at all while a request is happening. Since requests usually take a few seconds to complete, this can have a detrimental effect on your bot's performance. E.g if a user executes a command that performs a request taking 5 seconds to complete, no one else will be able to use your bot for those 5 seconds.
Please look at using a HTTP library that has async support, such as aiohttp or httpx

hi, i want to fill an bot admin table with guild and userid
But when i try to pass the userid to the command i get an errror telling me i should insert an valid number
it seems it is too long, any quick ideas on how i could manage to fix this?
type casting into str maybe, do you know of any "cleaner" solution?
silver moat
for real tho, just use string since less memory
round rivet
your db might have a type like 'bigint'
allowing for larger integers
int()
and if that doesn't work it's not a channel id

How do I go about making command group in a cog? @commands.group()?
silver moat
How do I go about making command group in a cog? `@commands.group()`?
command as in text commands or slash commands?
true panther
command as in text commands or slash commands?
text/prefix command
silver moat
yeah, @commands.group()
true panther
and if I want to make subgroup it's the same as commands outside of cog as well? So instead of @commands.group() it's @name_of_parent.group()?
I'm asking because that's what I've been doing but it logs error about no such command existing :(
long zealot
Hijacking this line of conversation too, how do you make a slash command subcommand group within a cog? Same thing?

Diffrence between ctx and interaction
cyan quail
ctx is context, interaction is interaction
astral mist
What’s what’s better to use
cyan quail
well it's not about what's "better", they're implemented in different scenarios
ctx is associated with commands and if it's a slash command, you'll also have access to ctx.interaction
silver moat
well, applicationcontext wraps interaction, just like how context also wraps message

I thought of something like this:
Text ❌ ✅
Text ❌ ✅
Text ❌ ✅
Text ❌ ✅
◀️Button Button▶️
And on the X and hook I wanted to let vote
cyan quail
well you can't really interact with embed content/text itself
your concept would require you to attach new buttons for your voting system
or use reactions, but if the votes are meant to be different per page then it wouldn't work
green hinge
So I only have the possibility to make 1 text per page and under the embed 2 buttons for the voting and underneath are the buttons to scroll from the paginator?
cyan quail
pretty much
green hinge
If each page should be voted individually then I have to use buttons right?
cyan quail
if you're using ext.pages, the Paginator has an option to attach a custom view alongside the page buttons
yeah

whats the difference between bot.command and bot.slash_command
at which one?
?tag client

discord.Bot
bot.slash_command is an alias for bot.command
latent veldt
`bot.slash_command` is an alias for `bot.command`
ok, and how would I use cogs for different files
for filename in os.listdir('./cogs'):
if filename.endswith('.py'):
try:
bot.load_extension(f'cogs.{filename[:-3]}')
except Exception as e:
print(f'Failed to load extension {filename}: {e}')```?that works

and then like this in the file?

Is there a reason you're using followup.send instead of just ctx.respond?

Is there a reason you're using `followup.send` instead of just `ctx.respond`?
i defer it
ill try respond
limber urchin
You can still respond even if you defer

try without allowed mentions
limber urchin
Well, why are you using allowed mentions anyways?
meager mica
try without allowed mentions
i did it didnt work so i added it
limber urchin
Are you sure it isn't just a bug with your client? Have you looked at your phone for instance?
meager mica
i even tried replied_user=True
oh ill try that
it works on phone
so oopsies

limber urchin

Oh hmm. Print tickket and see what it is. Check if the names are exactly same
I have now printed it.
In Appendix 1 you can see the channel name in Discord itself.
Appendix 2 shows what was printed in the console.
Appendix 3 shows the code for it.
The "m" is made small in discord. Should I therefore rather use the ID, i.e. that the channel is then called what the user ID of the member is?

you could use the user id, but that can be difficult to read and identify for your bot's users

You should be learning basic python before learning Pycord.

Oh, that's how I do it, yes. But I think I'll try that first with the user ID. For example, if the user changes his name/tag.

Hi there!
I have a problem, the py-cord update removes the spaces on my buttons when they are not between the letters. This is a real problem, is there a solution?
From this
to this
novel jay
which update, 2.4.0? which version were you on before?
wary rover
which update, 2.4.0? which version were you on before?
from 2.2.2 to 2.4.0
novel jay
Try 2.3.0
figure out which version broke it (https://github.com/Pycord-Development/pycord/releases)
since there were a lot of updates from 2.2.2 to 2.4.0
wary rover
Try 2.3.0
I have the impression that the problem comes from python, my pc and my server have the problem, it's strange I didn't have this problem until 21 days ago and I haven't touched anything since.
proud mason
I have the impression that the problem comes from python, my pc and my server ha...
so reverting pycord back to 2.2.2 doesnt fix the issue? then it could be a change from discords end
loud sail
cool 👍
Got it like this now. But it doesn't work either. Am I doing something wrong?
if 'Ticket1' in select.values:
cat = client.get_channel(985994142704353290)
tickket = f'ticket-{interaction.user.name.lower().replace(" ", "-")}'
print(tickket)
channelll = discord.utils.get(interaction.guild.channels, name=tickket)
print(channelll)
if channelll:
existiert = discord.Embed(
title=' - Leider kein Ticket erstellt',
description=f'Du kannst kein neues Ticket öffnen, weil du **grade schon ein offenes Ticket** auf diesem Server hast.',
color=0x2b2c30
)
await interaction.response.send_message(embed=existiert, ephemeral=True)
else:
ticket_channel = await interaction.guild.create_text_channel(
f'ticket-{interaction.user}',
topic=f' - Dieses Ticket wurde von {interaction.user} erstellt.',
category=cat
)
can you show the prints now?
and the channel name in discord
loud sail
can you show the prints now?
I just got no more print when I executed the command
loud sail
I'll try again tomorrow. Then let me know

alpine kernel
any way to set a bot's font? I want to use a monospaced font, but not in a code block (because discord timestamps arnt parsed in them) I know you can copy/paste fonts into discord, but dunno how that would be done in a bot, if possible
full basin
Just copy and paste the text into the code?...
alpine kernel
not really a viable answer
full basin
Your question doesn't make sense
You want to send responses with some font
Get the formatted text and paste it in the code
Don't know what else you expect

I suppose you can use emojis for each of the characters and punctuations you are using in your bot, but that racks up character usage really quickly.

depends on how you send the embed

ohh
latent veldt
so `await interaction.edit_original_message(...)`
yea that didnt work, Im passing in the embed with the view so the embed should be: py class EnterGiveaway(discord.ui.View): def __init__(self, public_embed): super().__init__() self.public_embed = public_embed
so self.public_embed
is there a way to edit it by id
silver moat

silver moat
where are you getting the ID
latent veldt
where are you getting the ID
I'm not but is it possible to

the message id possibly if thats possible
silver moat
ok
silver moat
actually I don't think thats possible
why
silver ice
;-;
latent veldt
this is how I send the embed await interaction.channel.send(embeds=[public_embed], view=enter_giveaway_view) and then in a different class ```py
class EnterGiveaway(discord.ui.View):
def init(self, public_embed):
super().init()
self.public_embed = public_embed`
@discord.ui.button(label="Enter Giveaway", style=discord.ButtonStyle.primary, emoji="🎁")
async def button_callback(self, button, interaction):
entries_field = self.public_embed.fields[-1]
entries_text = entries_field.value
current_entries = int(re.search(r'Entries: **(\d+)**', entries_text).group(1))
new_entries = current_entries + 1
new_entries_text = re.sub(r'Entries: **\d+**', f'Entries: {new_entries}', entries_text)
new_embed = discord.Embed(
title=self.public_embed.title,
description=self.public_embed.description,
color=self.public_embed.color
)
for field in self.public_embed.fields[:-1]:
new_embed.add_field(name=field.name, value=field.value, inline=field.inline)
new_embed.add_field(name=entries_field.name, value=new_entries_text, inline=entries_field.inline)
await interaction.edit_orginal_response(embed=new_embed)
Thats what I'm trying to do but the edit wont work

Hey, anybody know how I can add the current Unix timestamp in seconds to a number?
Current code:
def convert(time):
pos = ["s", "m", "h", "d"]
time_dict = {"s": 1, "m": 60, "h": 3600, "d": 3600 * 24}
unit = time[-1]
if unit not in pos:
return -1
try:
val = int(time[:-1])
except:
return -2
return val * time_dict[unit]
time = convert(duration)
embed.add_field(
name=f"Ends:",
value=f"<t:{discord.utils.utcnow() + time}:R>"
)
utcnow().timestamp
Also try using datetime.datetime.now instead of utcnow
Sometimes i have found weird stuff when using UTC time instead of local time
Oh btw
There is this cool library called time_str that does what you want but much better
fringe socket
embed.add_field(
name=f"Ends:",
value=f"<t:{discord.utils.utcnow().timestamp + time}:R>"
)
pale mica
Use int(time.time()) it gives you the current Unix time in seconds (but also you could've just wrapped it with int since integers are convertible to floats)

Sadly, no IIRC. You will get rate limited by Discord, and bots can only see so far back due to Discord limitations.

yes, but it should be different for each user. My user tag should not always be there.

Yea user.name is only the name, but str(user) is user.name + user.discriminator
so is that how I have to do it?
