[cyan quail]

otherwise there's something else in the file that's messed it up

[topaz rune]

probably

do you know if there is a doccumentation for type in @option?

[cyan quail]

the type is inherited from your typehint

hm

actually

[cyan quail]

can you make your description into a kwarg

i.e. description=...

[topaz rune]

 @commands.slash_command(name="mute", description="Permet de mute un utilisateur")
    @option("user", "L'utilisateur que l'on souhaite mute", required=True, type=discord.Member)
    @option("reason", "La raison du mute", required=False, type=str)
    async def mute(self, ctx, user, reason='L\'admin n\'a pas donné de raison'):
    

the description after @commands.slash_command?

[cyan quail]

no, the 2nd arg of your option decorator

that description

[topaz rune]

oh got ut

I just put type=**kwarg ?

sorry im not so good w/ oop

[cyan quail]

you can leave the type part in

im just asking you to add description= to the 2nd args

[topaz rune]

oh

ok

well

[topaz rune]

I dont get it but it works, ty so much
sorry if im a little bit slow, im into medication + im not english

[cyan quail]

all good, i'll explain; the @option decorator defines the first positional argument as name, and the 2nd positional argument as optional type py def option(name, type=None, **kwargs):

because you didn't use it as a kwarg, it assumed the description you set was the type

[topaz rune]

OH I GET IT, so it was thinking that the type was my description?

[cyan quail]

mhm

[candid coral]

Does the execution speed decrease if the variable assignment is done in one line?
Before:

variable1 = ...
variable2 = ...
... = ...

After:

variable1, variable2, ... = ..., ..., ...```

[cyan quail]

so then when you tried to do type=.. later, it broke because you passed type twice

[cyan quail]

negligible

[topaz rune]

https://tenor.com/view/thank-you-kind-sir-ty-kind-sir-ty-thank-you-sir-thanks-gif-14605906

[cyan quail]

allgood

the thing is that this is the opposite of Option

because the first arg in Option is input_type and the 2nd arg is optional description

but it's too significant to change at this point

[topaz rune]

ok last question for tonight buddy:

@bot.event
async def on_member_remove(member):
    rank.remove_user(member.id)
    le_serv = bot.get_guild(923316085950918656)
    mention=member.mention
    guild=member.guild
    user_num = len(le_serv.members)-4
    embed=discord.Embed(title=str("*** Quelqu'un s'en va! ***"),colour=0x6BFF33,description=str(f"Malheureusement, {mention} a quitté le {guild}, à bientôt!").format(mention=mention, guild=guild))
    if member.avatar != None:
        embed.set_thumbnail(url=f"{member.avatar}")
        embed.set_author(name=f"{member.name}",icon_url=f"{member.avatar}")
    else:
        icon = 'https://imgs.search.brave.com/8q2vzpdFmkVX8pvFePnT9a0xfU-i8HKXE7ozolyxSLs/rs:fit:1024:1024:1/g:ce/aHR0cHM6Ly9pLmlt/Z3VyLmNvbS9QUTdE/OUt2LnBuZw'
        embed.set_thumbnail(url=f"{icon}")
        embed.set_author(name=f"{member.name}",icon_url=f"{icon}")
    embed.set_footer(text=f"{member.guild}",icon_url=f"{member.guild.icon}")
    embed.add_field(name="Nom d'utilisateur:", value=member.display_name)
    embed.add_field(name="Nom du serveur:",value=guild)
    embed.add_field(name="Membre numéro:", value=user_num)
    await guild.system_channel.send(embed=embed)

sometimes, when someone leave, this function just don't activate, like it work... sometimes.
Am I making smth wring?

maybe I should use on_raw_member_remove instead of on_member_remove?

[young bone]

on_member_remove should be fine

what are your intents?

[topaz rune]

intents = discord.Intents.all()
intents.emojis = True
intents.guilds = True
intents.messages = True
intents.message_content = True
intents.members = True

[proud mason]

well sometimes the member is not available in cache

[proud mason]

yes you could use that, but you wont get the member object then

[topaz rune]

it ask a payload, what is it pls?

[proud mason]

hmm the class should be stated there too

one sec

[proud mason]

that last line

that class will be returned

which is this https://docs.pycord.dev/en/stable/api/models.html#discord.RawMemberRemoveEvent

[topaz rune]

it dont feel safe to use

[proud mason]

lol why not

[topaz rune]

idk, when I click on the doc, it put warning

[proud mason]

the non-raw version just does bot.get_guild(payload.guild_id).get_member(user.id) thats all

[topaz rune]

and my poor english makes me scared of coding smth that I dont understand

[proud mason]

that is for creating them yourself, which you arent, the library is creating it for you

[young bone]

Its weird because for me the normal on_member_remove works fine

[topaz rune]

sometimes it does for me too, but sometimes, nothing

[proud mason]

yea but sometimes it wont. thats because of how the cache works

[young bone]

oof

[topaz rune]

anyway
thanks for your help @proud mason@young bone@cyan quail, it help me a lot!
💙 💙 💙 💙

[solemn idol]

yup typing made it work, almost looks the same but typing does make it look better, and still lets the user know the bot is working :)

[stable cradle]

How can I get a list of the IDs of the roles the author has?

[solemn idol]

You need to access the roles attribute of the Member object and use a list to extract the IDs

[stable cradle]

how can I do that?

[solemn idol]

I suppose you do that a bit like this;

role_ids = [role.id for role in member.roles]

[young bone]

yes

[solemn idol]

(if you're using that in a command ofc, you can also use ctx.author.roles)

[stable cradle]

ctx.author.roles?

[solemn idol]

yes

[stable cradle]

yeah was about to say lol

[solemn idol]

^^

[young bone]

its kinda the same for interaction

[solemn idol]

ig just first thing that came up into my mind

[worldly schooner]

Does on_application_command gets executed before the command or at the same time as the command?

If it is at the same time, is there a way to make the on_application_command run first?

[young bone]

what?

[worldly schooner]

eg.: Someone sends a command to the bot, and I want the on_application_command to be executed before the command that the user called. Main purpose of that is to update the user data before he runs the command in question.

I will try something called @before_invoke

[cyan quail]

That is after

But yeah before_invoke is what you want

[potent tendon]

I am trying to setup a virtual environment with pycord and I installed the base dependency, but it says there is no module called discord, what do I do?

[young bone]

Can you show the pip list?

[potent tendon]

I'm using a venv so it's really just py-cord

and all the dependencies

huh wait

using the venv instead of just a requirements folder changes stuff

[frail spade]

can i have discord link where i can have basic templet of runing the bot

[opaque needle]

class MyView(discord.ui.View):
    def __init__(self):
        super().__init__(timeout=None)
    @discord.ui.select(
        placeholder="Выбирете роль",
        min_values=1,
        max_values=1,
        custom_id="role",
        options=generate_menu()
    )
    async def select_callback(self, select, inter: discord.Interaction):
        print(select.values)
        role = inter.user.roles
        for i in role:
            print(role)
            print(i.id)
            if i.id == int(select.values[0]):
                await inter.user.remove_roles(get(inter.guild.roles, id=int(select.values[0])))
                await inter.response.send_message(f"Вы выбрали роль <@&{select.values[0]}>. Успешно забрана!")
            else:
                await inter.user.add_roles(get(inter.guild.roles, id=int(select.values[0])))
                await inter.response.send_message(f"Вы выбрали роль <@&{select.values[0]}>. Успешно выдана!")```

Error:
discord.errors.InteractionResponded: This interaction has already been responded to before

[torpid wraith]

I can't seem to get the bot to play a simple local audio file... And I'm having trouble debugging it because it successfully connects and then just freezes and reports "The application did not respond". No errors in the console. I added some print statements, and it never gets to the second one:

# Join the user's voice channel
print("I get here!")
voice_channel = ctx.author.voice.channel
voice_client = await voice_channel.connect()

# Load the local audio file
print("I don't get here?")
audio_source = discord.FFmpegPCMAudio(AUDIO_DIR + file)```

If I run the command again it throws: ClientException: Already connected to a voice channel.

[proud mason]

Update to 2.4.1

[torpid wraith]

Omg... Tysvm... I had py-cord >= 2.3.2 in my requirements.txt file thinking it would "install any version above that value"

[proud mason]

why are you sending a message for every role in user.roles?

that code logic is very scuffed

i suggest you do smth like this instead of the loop-

role = member.guild.get_role(int(select.values[0]))
if role in member.roles:
  # remove it
else:
  # add it

this will be much faster and much more efficient

and this will actually work

button parameter goes before the interaction parameter

self, button, interaction

like that

[quasi stratus]

class BaseView(View):
    def __init__(self, interaction: discord.Interaction, game: BaseGame) -> None:
        super().__init__(timeout=15.0, disable_on_timeout=True
        self.interaction = interaction
        self.game = game

    async def on_timeout(self) -> None:
        await self.interaction.edit_original_response(content="Game stopped due to timeout")
        self.stopGame()

    def stopGame(self) -> None:
        self.disable_all_items()
        self.stop()
        self.game.stopGame(self.ogPlayer.id)```

Any idea why the on_timeout doesn't disable the items but when my button does view.stopGame() it disable the items ?
Maybe there's something i didn't understood about the on_timeout 🤔

[proud mason]

call stop game before editing, and pass view=self to the edit

disable_on_timeout=True is ignored if you override the on_timeout method

[quasi stratus]

Yeah, i know for this one it's just here by default x)

And yeah thanks, forgot the view=self

[proud mason]

lol np

[green hinge]

Can I use the on_member_update function to access whether or not a new user has accepted Discord's "Accept Rules" themselves and then assign them a role accordingly? 🙂

[full basin]

.tias

[winter condor]

https://i.imgur.com/VkRzeQJ.png

[full basin]

The docs pretty much answer your question.

[green hinge]

When accepting rules the pending changes or am I reading this wrong from the docs?

[full basin]

Yes, get triggered when it changes

[green hinge]

Okay then it should work like this or ?

    @commands.Cog.listener()
    async def on_member_update(self, before, after):
        if before.pending and not after.pending:
            for role in ROLES:
              await after.add_roles(role)

[full basin]

Yes.

But you can remove that for loop

.rtfm add_roles

[winter condor]

1 results

discord.Member.add_roles

[full basin]

add_roles can take a list of roles afaik

[green hinge]

Okay then can I just pass the list like that?

    @commands.Cog.listener()
    async def on_member_update(self, before, after):
        if before.pending and not after.pending:
          await after.add_roles(ROLES)```

[full basin]

Yes

[green hinge]

Can I send ephemeral messages in an on_message event?

[proud mason]

no. ephemeral can only be sent to interactions

[nimble rose]

how can i get number of bans in server?

[nimble rose]

never mind i got it

[young bone]

Audit logs?

[nimble rose]

i just check the docs xd

[opaque needle]

How to create such a message?

[spring hare]

ephemeral select menu

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

[solemn idol]

(the that only you can see it is called an ephemeral)

[opaque needle]

Thanks

[topaz rune]

hi, sorry to disturb, but I want to know smth:
with / commands and @options, how can I do that my user can mention many users in once.
actually, I have this:

@commands.command()
    async def invite(self, ctx, *args):
        """
        Permet d'inviter un/plusieurs utilisateur(s) dans son salon vocal privé
        discord.Member : *args -> les/la mention(s) faite(s) par l'utilisateur de la commande (l'auteur)
        """
        is_there = False
        members = (
            ctx.message.mentions
        )  # je récupère la liste des mentions (sous forme de discord.Member)

and I want to transform it into a slash command:

@commands.slash_command(name="invite", description="Invite un ou des utilisateurs dans ton salon privé!")
@option(name="user", description="Les utilisateurs à inviter", type={?????}, required=True)
async def invite(self, ctx, *args):
        """
        Permet d'inviter un/plusieurs utilisateur(s) dans son salon vocal privé
        discord.Member : *args -> les/la mention(s) faite(s) par l'utilisateur de la commande (l'auteur)
        """
        is_there = False
        members = (
            ctx.message.mentions
        )

thanks

[opaque needle]

discord.errors.InteractionResponded: This interaction has already been responded to before

[young bone]

(self, ctx, user: discord.Member)

[topaz rune]

but I want it to be one or more

[solemn idol]

right... you can only have 1 response to that, if you could provide your entire command it might be easier to tell you what you're doing wrong :P

[proud mason]

@opaque needle if you want to send multiple messages, use interaction.followup.send()

[merry dune]

Heya, i have question, how i can integrate button in prefix command😅

[young bone]

view=thebutton, with a class it would be view=thebutton()

[merry dune]

thanks, it remains to create a function for this and call the button

[proud mason]

i suggest you check out the guide

.guide

[winter condor]

https://guide.pycord.dev

[merry dune]

This suggests that you should not write in every output ctx.respond u need one respond and next send

[merry dune]

Ty, I'll look into this later

[opaque needle]

    async def select_callback(self, select, inter: discord.Interaction):
        role = inter.user.guild.get_role(int(select.values[0]))
        if role in inter.user.roles:
            await inter.user.remove_roles(get(inter.guild.roles, id=int(select.values[0])))
            resp = "Роль убрана!"
            await inter.response.defer()
        else:
            await inter.user.add_roles(get(inter.guild.roles, id=int(select.values[0])))
            resp = "Роль добавлена!"
            await inter.response.defer()
        await inter.response.send_message(resp, ephemeral=True)```

?

[proud mason]

do you have multiple instances running?

also, defer at the start of the callback, instead of doing it inside the if blocks

[merry dune]

await inter respond
And last line too

U need one respond and other only send

[proud mason]

and just pass role to add/remove_roles ??

[merry dune]

    async def select_callback(self, select, inter: discord.Interaction):
        role = inter.user.guild.get_role(int(select.values[0]))
        if role in inter.user.roles:
            await inter.user.remove_roles(get(inter.guild.roles, id=int(select.values[0])))
            resp = "Роль убрана!"
            await inter.response.defer() #1 pespond
        else:
            await inter.user.add_roles(get(inter.guild.roles, id=int(select.values[0])))
            resp = "Роль добавлена!"
            await inter.response.defer() #1 respond 
        await inter.response.send_message(resp, ephemeral=True)# 2 respond```
Umm i see 2 cases respond

[proud mason]

they are inside if else blocks

oh right

im sorry

yes 2nd should be interaction.followup.send

[merry dune]

therefore only 1 conflict and not 2

[proud mason]

||i thought you were talking about the 2 defers ||

[merry dune]

I myself once wrote a bunch respond on the authomatical
and then I thought it was wrong

if == ...
   await ctx.respond("first")
else:
   await ctx.respond("second")

await ctx.send("dont use respond here")```

[opaque needle]

Thanks!

[merry dune]

Не за что

[green hinge]

Why are all members always shown as offline although some are online?

intents.members = True
intents.guilds = True


guild = ctx.guild
      for member in guild.members:
        print(member.status)```

[coarse cargo]

Because that is their status?

[gleaming falcon]

Is there an autocomplete example for mentionables? I thought it was in Guide or examples folder, but failing to find it

[coarse cargo]

https://github.com/Pycord-Development/pycord/blob/master/examples/app_commands/slash_autocomplete.py

[green hinge]

How can I then get the online status out ?

[gleaming falcon]

I was just on that. That does not have Mentionable autocomplete (e.g. Roles, Channels, Users)

[coarse cargo]

Whoops my bad, i doubt there is an example

[gleaming falcon]

Actually there is. I can extrapolate from https://github.com/Pycord-Development/pycord/blob/master/examples/app_commands/info.py#L16

[coarse cargo]

What do you mean by "get the online status out"

[cyan quail]

you want SlashCommandOptionType.mentionable

however, discord only defines it as users and roles

you won't get channels there

[proud mason]

You need presence intent

[gleaming falcon]

ooh. Okay. How is that different from typehinting the Member or Role from the example I linked?

[cyan quail]

it's just the direct type that discord uses

when you typehint member/role, it's converted to SlashCommandOptionType internally

[gleaming falcon]

ahhhh. Gotcha! pycord magic 🪄

[cyan quail]

(you probably still need to use Option though)

[gleaming falcon]

It's not meant to be anything too robust, so this'll work. Thanks for helping.

I did not seem to need option; I essentially copied the exact signature from
https://github.com/Pycord-Development/pycord/blob/master/examples/app_commands/info.py#L15-L16 and changed Member to Role, and it works as expected.

[cyan quail]

oh i meant specifically for SlashCommandOptionType

[gleaming falcon]

Ah, I see

Unrelated, how can we get things like ctx.respond to have IDE autocompletion. I'm always afraid I'm going to misspell ephemeral 😛

[cyan quail]

i can't really comment because autocomplete has always worked for me by default

[proud mason]

Not really possible iirc. ctx.respond uses *args and **kwargs

[green hinge]

Thank you 🙂

[lost lodge]

Hello, guys!

How can i check, if a member join a voice channel or leave a voice channel in the https://docs.pycord.dev/en/stable/api/events.html#discord.on_voice_state_update event?

I would be really happy if you could help me

[proud mason]

if before.channel is None and after.channel is not None, then member joined a channel

The opposite if member left

[lost lodge]

thx

[livid wolf]

How do I have a new line in an embed?

[proud mason]

use \n

[livid wolf]

Oh

that simple

[proud mason]

yea lol

[young bone]

not like inline=True or False?

[proud mason]

uh pretty sure they meant in the description

inline is for fields

[young bone]

ye

[proud mason]

@livid wolf you were asking for the description right? or fields?

[livid wolf]

Fields

[proud mason]

oh

the field itself can be put on a new line by passing inline=False

[young bone]

@livid wolf

[livid wolf]

Thanks

[violet heron]

ok im prolly dumb but

[young bone]

I would never say that but ok

[violet heron]

using one of the quickstart sripts here

[young bone]

replit oof

?tag replit

[obtuse junco]

https://gist.github.com/JustaSqu1d/992d7d95c44420f5edd5b0741b7915aa

[violet heron]

and i get

[young bone]

is discord.py uninstalled?

[violet heron]

good question

[young bone]

also check this

[violet heron]

yeah i saw that

ok so i uninstalled but it's the same error

[young bone]

just create a new project and do the stuff

[violet heron]

yeah

[young bone]

its probably way easier to do it like that xd

[violet heron]

argh

now i can't click on the button

[young bone]

what?

[violet heron]

let me cook actually i think im just 0 iq

[young bone]

No, its Replit

its really bad for that stuff

[violet heron]

what do you suggest instead

that i can host for free

[young bone]

#app-commands message

this maybe?

I use a Raspberry Pi

[violet heron]

ah

back where i started

[young bone]

can you show the py-cord version?

[violet heron]

wdym

[young bone]

Do you know basic python?

[violet heron]

kinda

i have an already working bot

but i was trying to go through pycord instead

whats weird is my previous one worked with bot = commands.InteractionBot() to initialize but bot = discord.Bot() doesn't

[young bone]

what?

can you send the pip list?

[violet heron]

for which one

[young bone]

the one who is not working

[violet heron]

numpy 1.24.3, flask 2.3.2, urllib3 2.0.2 py-cord 2.4.1, discord 2.2.3

[young bone]

discord is installed

[violet heron]

yes

[young bone]

you have to uninstall all discord and other librarys

?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

[violet heron]

alr

same error

idk don't worry about it

[young bone]

did you also uninstall py-cord and reinstall it?

[green hinge]

How is it possible to dynamically create the buttons depending on how many values are present in self.specc?

        for specc in self.speccs:
            self.add_item(discord.ui.Button(label=specc, custom_id=specc, style=discord.ButtonStyle.green))

    @discord.ui.button()
    async def button_click(self, button: discord.ui.Button, interaction: discord.Interaction):
specc = button.custom_id```

[proud mason]

do all those buttons have largely similar callback? then subclass button

[green hinge]

The buttons all have the same callback

[proud mason]

and instead of adding discord.ui.Button(...), add your subclass. like self.add_item(MyButton(...))

yea much better to subclass Button

[green hinge]

Ah thank you! 🙂

[violet heron]

ah finally i got it work tysm

[green hinge]

I can maximum 25 buttons correct?

[proud mason]

yes

[earnest bear]

Is there any way i could categorize my slash commands?

[proud mason]

yes

slash groups

[coarse cargo]

How can i edit only the field of an embed without need to rewrite all the embed? if this is even possible.

[young bone]

yes

[coarse cargo]

Maybe can you explain me how to do that?

[young bone]

I cannot explain it because I dont know how to do it xd

https://docs.pycord.dev/en/master/api/data_classes.html#discord.Embed.to_dict

but maybe this can help you

[coarse cargo]

ty, i'll try

[proud mason]

check out embed.set_field_at

.rtfm set_field

[winter condor]

1 results

discord.Embed.set_field_at

[coarse cargo]

yeah, already found this. thanks anyway

[agile dust]

[young bone]

can you show the code?

[cyan quail]

you probably didn't get member properly

[robust hatch]

Hi! I have this code to check if the user is registered in the bot and I cant figure out how to stop it from executing when the user isn't registered

async def on_command(ctx):
    #if user not is registered
        #cancel the command```

[young bone]

you can do it with if else

[robust hatch]

i know but i need to cancel the command with pycord

when someone calls any command it goes first in this function

i want to cancel the command somehow

[young bone]

you could use check

[robust hatch]

how

[young bone]

@commands.check()

[robust hatch]

what does it do?

[young bone]

https://docs.pycord.dev/en/master/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.check

[robust hatch]

ty

tysm

i got it

[violet heron]

how do i make a slash command arguement mandatory?

[full basin]

theyre required by default unless you provide a default argument

[violet heron]

ah ok

[violet heron]

what events covers when the bot is pinged?

[silver moat]

only on_message

[violet heron]

ahh

ok ty

[copper pine]

hi there, i'm having a little issue, this is my code:

@bridge_command(description="Get useful info about Books and eBooks")
@discord.option("book_name",description="Enter a book name (Optional tip: add authors to get better results)")
    async def bookinfo(self, ctx, book_name):

The problem that is only reciving one argument, anyone knows how to get more arguments?

[elfin dagger]

add another discord.option and argument to the function

[silver moat]

@bridge_command(...)
@discord.option(option1,....)
@discord.option(option2,....)
...
async def command(self, ctx, option1, option2, ...):

you can add up to 25 options

[rare ice]

What are the benefits of using a Sharded Bot with a bot that is in over 700 servers? Currently I am using the standard commands.Bot

[silver moat]

none yet

[cyan quail]

there aren't

[rare ice]

I mean like does the bot run more smooth?

Like faster?

What are the differences?

[cyan quail]

sharding only starts to make a difference closer to 1500 or so? maybe less

if you want your bot to run smoother then that's on the specs it's running on

[rare ice]

Ah ok

[cyan quail]

the reason it exists is mainly to split events across several instances

[raw ore]

Are variadic slash commands a thing? ie smth like python async def authorize_users(self, ctx, members: [discord.Member] = None):

[proud mason]

Uh slash commands? Or prefix?

[raw ore]

slash, but if its different between the two I'd be curious to know anyway

[proud mason]

Yea you can do it in prefix commands

The library will manage everything for you

You can even accept a list of a type between other parameter
Like async def cmd(ctx, name: str, users: list[discord.Member], reason: str)

This isn't possible for Slash commands as i remember

Because the discord.Member option only let's you pick 1 member

[raw ore]

got it, ty

[proud mason]

you might be able to do some tricks by accepting a string and using Converters

Although im not quite familiar with how that would work

[distant roost]

Is there a way to check if a member is timeouted?

[proud mason]

.rtfm member.timed

[winter condor]

1 results

discord.Member.timed_out

[distant roost]

Thank you i haven’t founded it in the docs

[solemn idol]

anyways I did it like this

[proud mason]

format_exc won't work like that

Use traceback.format_exception(error)

On python <3.10, you might need to pass some extra args like error.__class__, error.__traceback__ and stuff

Search Google for examples

[solemn idol]

@discord.Cog.listener()
    async def on_application_command_error(self, ctx, error):
        # Get the guild and the channel where you want to log the errors
        guild = self.bot.get_guild(GUILD_ID) # Replace GUILD_ID with the ID of the guild
        channel = guild.get_channel(CHANNEL_ID) # Replace CHANNEL_ID with the ID of the channel

        # Create an embed to log the error
        em = discord.Embed(title='Error', color=em_red)
        em.add_field(name='Error Type', value=type(error).__name__, inline=False)
        em.add_field(name='Error Message', value=f'`{error}`', inline=False)
        em.add_field(name='Exception', value=f'`{traceback.format_exc()}`', inline=False)
        await channel.send(embed=em)

[coarse cargo]

There is any benefit in using @option, instead of defining them in the parameters?

[proud mason]

yeah use traceback.format_exception(error)

[fervent cradle]

I'm using youtube_dl and I get this error after half playing a 3 minutes song,
if any of you had this same issue, what solution did you use to solve it? I tried different ways and it never worked.

[young bone]

you know this server is for py-cord help and not youtube_dl?

[violet heron]

How would I make the bot respond in a whisper

[rare ice]

Ephemeral/hidden? Use ephemeral=True when responding to an interaction.

[violet heron]

Ahh ty

[raw ore]

What's the canonical way to define a slash command that deliberately does not send a response message, and doesn't cause a timeout error?

or would my best bet be 'send it anyway, and delete it after/make it ephemeral' if that's not possible

[silver moat]

There isn’t one. It is always better to acknowledge that this did happen.

It’s always better to say something like “Done!” than to say nothing at all.

[graceful brook]

Does anyone know how to use a local file for the url parameter of discord.Embed.set_image()? Or if it's possible?

[meager heron]

My bot hit 2500 servers, so I just enabled sharding via commands.AutoShardedBot. I'm getting the following warning every minute:
WARNING:discord.gateway:WebSocket in shard ID 0 is ratelimited, waiting 60.00 seconds
The bot seems to work fine, though on_ready() hasn't fired. Is this something to worry about?

Ah! It just ticked up to shard ID 1 after 11 minutes. Progress, perhaps

[silver moat]

?tag localfile

[obtuse junco]

f = discord.File("some_file_path", filename="image.png")
e = discord.Embed()
e.set_image(url="attachment://image.png")
await messagable.send(file=f, embed=e)```

[silver moat]

if you have members intent, it will take a while for the bot to be ready

[meager heron]

Yeah, I'm used to that, just not to receiving this particular shard ratelimit warning

If that's all that's happening, then cool

[silver moat]

yeah that’s just the library fetching all the members

[graceful brook]

Thank you, no idea how I didn't see this.

[graceful brook]

file = discord.File(f"attachments://assets/test.png", filename=f"test.png")
embed.set_image(url="attachments://assets/test.png")
await message.edit_original_response(content=content, embed=embed, view=SetupButtonsView(), file=file)

I apologize if I may be misunderstanding how to do this.

[silver moat]

should just be attachments://test.png iirc

[graceful brook]

I will try that when I get home, thank you

[glossy forum]

Hey, Is there a way to wait until msg is sent in order to add emojis to it?
y'know, standard dealing with 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'add_reaction'

[young bone]

can you show some code?

[glossy forum]

oh, this might be what I need, lemme check it out

[violet heron]

what event handler is for when someone replies to the bot?

[silver moat]

still part of on_message

[violet heron]

how would i format it

[silver moat]

.rtfm message.reference

[winter condor]

4 results

discord.Message.reference
discord.WebhookMessage.reference
discord.InteractionMessage.reference
discord.SyncWebhookMessage.reference

[violet heron]

i don't see it

[silver moat]

you can try getting/fetching the message reference ID and getting the author attribute of it

[violet heron]

ah

so something like message.ReferencedMessage.author?

[silver moat]

the MessageReference class doesn't have an author attribute

[violet heron]

ah

[silver moat]

you should use the id attribute and get/fetch the actual message instead

[glossy forum]

okay, that helped
but there's another issue - wait_for doesn't give the expected result

@discord.slash_command()
async def register(self, ctx: discord.ApplicationContext):
    def check(reaction_: discord.Reaction, user_: discord.Member):
        return user_ == ctx.author and reaction_.message == message and str(reaction_.emoji) in answer_emoji
    answer_emoji = ('\U0000274E', '\U00002705')  # no, yes
    #some code
    interaction = await self.bot.send_privacy_policy(ctx, registration=True)
    message = await interaction.original_response()
    await message.add_reaction(answer_emoji[1])
    await message.add_reaction(answer_emoji[0])
    try:
        reaction, user = await self.bot.wait_for('reaction_add', timeout=60.0, check=check)
    except asyncio.TimeoutError:
        await ctx.respond("Registration canceled due to lack of response")
        await message.delete()
        return
    else:
        if str(reaction.emoji) == answer_emoji[0]:
            await ctx.respond("Registration canceled due to rejecting privacy policy")
            await message.delete()
            return
    # some code in case the answer_emoji[1] is selected

[violet heron]

getting 'Message' object has no attribute 'MessageReference' @silver moat

[silver moat]

it's message.reference

[violet heron]

ooooh

[silver moat]

could you perhaps, clarify on what I am supposed to look at?

even a comment like # LOOK HERE could help

[glossy forum]

Sorry, I was in the process of editing it
basically, I expect the user to click on the emoji depending if they agree with the bot's privacy policy or not
the emojis display as expected, but the bot doesn't react on that and defaults to the except clause

the #look here is this line reaction, user = await self.bot.wait_for('reaction_add', timeout=60.0, check=check)

[silver moat]

and also what are you trying to do and what isn't working

[glossy forum]

@silver moat okay, now it's cleared up

[violet heron]

alr i got the id of the reference message, how do I find the author of that message

I wrote my intent badly, I meant - since the whole thing doesn't work, is it possible that's the possible culprit?

but ig that answers the question as well :p

[silver moat]

you can always try printing the value

of str(reaction_.emoji) ofc

[violet heron]

test = await message.channel.fetch_message(message.reference.id)

object has no attribute 'id'

doesn't work with message_id either

[violet heron]

asked chat gpt, got answer, code fixed

i love crying

[fleet viper]

guys is anyone here familiar with the tasks.loop parameters? I have a list containing the hour and minute of the time I want the loop to run at. My code used to run in discord.py but now that I try to migrate it to pycord (for slash commands mostly) It seems to not work anymore and I either get a typeerror : can't compare offset-naive and offset-aware times
or the loop just doesnt execute and when checking for the remaining seconds it just returns None

from dateutil.tz import gettz
...           @tasks.loop(count=1,time=dt.time(tzinfo=gettz("Europe/Berlin"), hour=int(timeS[0]), minute=int(timeS[1])))
async def timer():
    await self.reminder()

return timer

I check with timer.seconds , after using timer.start() later in the code

[glossy forum]

okay, apparently it's reaction_.message == message that's at fault

[glossy forum]

but... it's the message that gets the reactions attached to...?

okay, I needed to compare their IDs

[silver moat]

because discord.Message doesn't have an __eq__ method (I think)

If there isn't one, then Python will compare their memory locations, which are different.

[glossy forum]

gotcha

[silver moat]

try just setting the time to a naive UTC time.

[fleet viper]

do you mean with tzinfo=None as the time parameter? It avoided the error but the loop didnt execute on time and i couldnt figure out how it would

[silver moat]

UTC = universal time-coordinated or greenland mean time (GMT) or GMT+0

or in other words, subtract 2 hours from the time since berlin is GMT+2

[fleet viper]

so there isnt a way to just use GMT for that?

[silver moat]

actually time-changing stuff exists. I'm not particularly skilled in time conversion stuff, but I think you can just use https://docs.python.org/3/library/datetime.html#datetime.datetime.utcfromtimestamp

[fleet viper]

thank you, I will take a look at it tomorrow

[torpid wraith]

Is it possible to pass a slash command parameter to a before_invoke decorated function?

[strong bobcat]

Please help

TypeError: Invalid permission(s): Administrator

I use @has_permissions(Administrator = True)

from discord.ext.commands

[proud mason]

Try a in lowercase

[cyan quail]

nop

you could probably do something like accessing ctx.selected_options, but you won't get the direct variables/args from the command.

[topaz rune]

Hi, is there an equivalent of @bot.event for @commands pls?

@commands.event
AttributeError: module 'discord.ext.commands' has no attribute 'event'

[proud mason]

Pretty sure that's just the callback lol

What are you trying to do?

[topaz rune]

on_member_join

[proud mason]

Run some code when any command is executed?

?

[topaz rune]

no

@commands.event
    async def on_member_join(member): 
        await rank.add_user(self.member.id, member.name,1,1)

add into database user when join

[proud mason]

Oh wait are you trying to add an event listener in cogs?

[topaz rune]

yes thats the point

can't I?

[proud mason]

Use @commands.Cog.listener()

[topaz rune]

@commands.Cog.listener()
@commands.event
    async def on_member_join(member): 
        await rank.add_user(self.member.id, member.name,1,1)

like this?

[proud mason]

Not the @commands.event

[proud mason]

Just this

[topaz rune]

okok

thanks ill try

works, ty

[solemn idol]

I am trying to make an error handler for my bot... yet I am struggling on how to do this most efficient.

Basically I have the default
on application command error stuff
with if isinstance ...

But now I am trying to make some custom embed errors which I can just call... because as of right now I have a cog with a lot of try and except statements some with literally the same embed made on multiple places and its taking up unnecessary space...
I was trying to do this in my error_handler.py cog but I am not sure how to do this, if I should somehow make custom errors which get put into isinstance or just custom classes which get called on the except statement in the (extra large cog, because of the amount of embeds).... any ideas?

[cyan quail]

Indeed, the standard method would be to subclass another error class and check with isinstance

You can also have error handlers for each specific cog

Perhaps check out https://github.com/Pycord-Development/pycord/blob/master/discord/errors.py to see what custom errors would look like

[tulip ledge]

What do I need to make bots on my PC?

[proud pagoda]

Your PC

[young bone]

Xd

[proud pagoda]

Everything else is online, i.e Discord Account, Code editor, Python installed

[young bone]

Do you know basic Python?

[tulip ledge]

Yes

[solemn idol]

so basically I could just import Forbidden from discord.errors and customly change the errors myself by subclassing them?

[cyan quail]

Mhm

[solemn idol]

mh that just enlightened my thoughts, thank you very much :)

[cyan quail]

Well, probably not forbidden

[solemn idol]

that was an example eheh-

[cyan quail]

since it's HTTPexception it has some other requirements

Yeah

[solemn idol]

? such as?

[cyan quail]

Well if you look In the file

HTTPException requires a request response from discord

You want to use an error that can be initialised freely

[topaz rune]

hi
does someone have an idea of why this thing doesn't get execute:

class CommandErrorHandler(commands.Cog):

    def __init__(self, bot):
        self.bot = bot

    @commands.Cog.listener()
    async def on_command_error(self, ctx, error):
        traceback_str = ''.join(traceback.format_exception(type(error), error, error.__traceback__))
        print(traceback_str)
        print(error)
        if "You do not own this bot." in traceback_str:
            await ctx.reply("T'as pas le droit de faire ça :).")
        console = await self.bot.fetch_channel(1070805582447136819)
        
        if "is not found" not in traceback_str:
            await console.send(f'L\'utilisateur <@{ctx.author.id}> a effectué la commande `{ctx.message.content}` dans le channel <#{ctx.channel.id}> à {datetime.now().strftime("%H:%M:%S")} le {datetime.now().strftime("%d/%m/%Y")}.')
            await console.send(f"Erreur:")
            await console.send(f"py\n{error}\n`")
            await console.send(f"Traceback:")
            await console.send(f"py\n{traceback_str}\n\n\n\n")

Like it's not getting call when there is an error

[solemn idol]

mh ok

[cyan quail]

Slash error?

Or regular command

[topaz rune]

you know that you have a big brain?

[cyan quail]

Apparently

[topaz rune]

so thats on_slash_error?

or a thing like this?

[cyan quail]

on_application_command_error

[topaz rune]

ty, imma try

[solemn idol]

oh well that makes my life easier

[topaz rune]

but is there a thing for all of the errors? like all traceback with a @commands.Cog.listener()

[cyan quail]

It has the error arg

[topaz rune]

I know, but the error arg send only if there is an error with my command

I am looking for all of the errors

[cyan quail]

Hm

on_error maybe?

[topaz rune]

it's existing?

[cyan quail]

Though idk if that actually has the error arg

[topaz rune]

sorry for my poor english ahah

[topaz rune]

seems not working

[proud mason]

on_error needs special handling

[topaz rune]

wdym?

[proud mason]

you dont get ctx with it

[topaz rune]

oh

uh

[proud mason]

in fact, you dont even get error. you need to get it yourself

notice how on_command_error and other error events have a parameter called error

thats the error object

[topaz rune]

yes yes

[proud mason]

but on_error doesnt have it

[topaz rune]

I have it

[proud mason]

you can get the error object using https://docs.python.org/3/library/sys.html#sys.exc_info

[proud mason]

yea but that is on_application_command_error

that is different from on_error

[topaz rune]

hm

[proud mason]

this is an event that is called when an error is raised anywhere in the bot

unless it gets handled by try except

[topaz rune]

so a thing like this should work?

still have error on my console, I think that I dont get it, im sorry

[proud mason]

you will need to override the built in one

i dont think you can register that event as a listener

needs to be @bot.event or override by subclass

[cyan quail]

Out of curiosity, what other errors are you trying to catch?

[proud mason]

probably event listeners?

[topaz rune]

the idea is to get all of them

[proud mason]

i believe exc_info() returns a tuple

yep (type(e), e, e.__traceback__)

e is the error object

[topaz rune]

thats what I was doing before!!

traceback_str = ''.join(traceback.format_exception(type(error), error, error.__traceback__))

[proud mason]

oh yea so you can directly unpack the tuple into it

error_tup = sys.exc_info()
and then format_exception(*error_tup)

or yk what

there is a built in method for this

traceback.format_exc()

simple

[topaz rune]

this?

[solemn idol]

👌

[topaz rune]

does it print all exceptions or only pycord one

[solemn idol]

what, oh no- this was my custom error messager

[topaz rune]

oh yeah sorry im tired

lol no worries.

[proud mason]

yes

question, did you import commands from discord.ext ?

why is it white... o-o VSCode color scheme is usually different

this is cursed too

[solemn idol]

it looks fine.... I have honestly no idea why your vscode color scheme is so weird but hm

[topaz rune]

[solemn idol]

but your bot in general does work right? so it does go on, even while its white (when running it via vscode)

because if it doesnt then uh vscode might be a problem...

[topaz rune]

oh yea yea, everything good

only color

[solemn idol]

oh well then idk

[proud mason]

pretty sure this is just a colour scheme thing

nothing to worry about

[solemn idol]

cursed

[topaz rune]

probably

[solemn idol]

Welp idk whats wrong your code seems fine to me tbh

[proud mason]

did you move the handler to the main file? you need to use @bot.event

[topaz rune]

no, I will

gpt tell me this:

import traceback
from datetime import datetime
from discord.ext import commands

class CommandErrorHandler(commands.Cog):
    def __init__(self, bot):
        self.bot = bot

    @commands.Cog.listener()
    async def on_application_command_error(self, ctx, error):
        await self.send_error_message(ctx, error)

    @commands.Cog.listener()
    async def on_command_error(self, ctx, error):
        await self.send_error_message(ctx, error)

    @commands.Cog.listener()
    async def on_error(self, event, *args, **kwargs):
        console = await self.bot.fetch_channel(1107314055322030120)
        await console.send(f'Une erreur est survenue lors de l\'événement {event} à {datetime.now().strftime("%H:%M:%S")} le {datetime.now().strftime("%d/%m/%Y")}.')
        traceback_str = traceback.format_exc()
        await console.send(f"Traceback:")
        await console.send(f"`py\n{traceback_str}\n`\n\n\n")

    async def send_error_message(self, ctx, error):
        traceback_str = ''.join(traceback.format_exception(type(error), error, error.__traceback__))
        if "You do not own this bot." in traceback_str:
            await ctx.respond("T'as pas le droit de faire ça :).")
        console = await self.bot.fetch_channel(1107314055322030120)
        await console.send(f'L\'utilisateur <@{ctx.author.id}> a effectué la commande `{ctx.message.content}` dans le channel <#{ctx.channel.id}> à {datetime.now().strftime("%H:%M:%S")} le {datetime.now().strftime("%d/%m/%Y")}.')
        await console.send(f"Erreur:")
        await console.send(f"`py\n{error}\n`")
        await console.send(f"Traceback:")
        await console.send(f"`py\n{traceback_str}\n`\n\n\n")

what do u think abt it

[proud mason]

ngl dont use gpt

[topaz rune]

I know, but when Im hard stuck, i try sometimes

what is the ctx.message.content equivalent for the / commands pls?

[solemn idol]

Quick question, what faulty code can I use to recreate a quick HTTP error .-.

[topaz rune]

from flask import Flask, abort

app = Flask(__name__)

@app.route('/')
def hello_world():
    abort(678)

if __name__ == '__main__':
    app.run()

[solemn idol]

pycord http error lol

[topaz rune]

oh

mbmb

[proud mason]

1. as i said, on_error cant be in a cog. the others can be
   2), no need to fetch channel on every error. best to use a partial_channel (bot.get_partial_messageable can be used as a channel)
2. ctx.respond doesnt exist for prefix cmds
3. you could just use double decorators to use single handle for both, app and prefix cmd
4. 5 send messages. wtf

6. checking error based on string in traceback

[proud mason]

there isnt

[topaz rune]

@bot.command()
async def faulty_command(ctx):
    try:
        # Trying to fetch a non-existent channel.
        channel = await bot.fetch_channel(123456789012345678)
    except discord.HTTPException as e:
        # Handle HTTPException
        await ctx.send(f"An HTTPException has occurred: {e}")

[solemn idol]

thanks

[proud mason]

use if else with isinstance for these minor differences

[topaz rune]

@bot.event
async def on_error(event, *args, **kwargs):
    console = await bot.fetch_channel(1107314055322030120)
    await console.send(f'Une erreur est survenue lors de l\'événement {event} à {datetime.now().strftime("%H:%M:%S")} le {datetime.now().strftime("%d/%m/%Y")}.')
    traceback_str = traceback.format_exc()
    await console.send(f"Traceback:")
    await console.send(f"`py\n{traceback_str}\n`\n\n\n")

am I good there?

[proud mason]

looks ok

except point 2

and 5

also, codeblock is ```
not `

[topaz rune]

what is partial_channel?

[topaz rune]

yeye, I removed it for the message

[proud mason]

ah ok

[proud mason]

partial channel allows you to send message to a channel without needing to get or fetch it

[topaz rune]

then how does I specify the one I want?

[proud mason]

simple use-

channel = bot.get_partial_messageable(id)
await channel.send(...)

[proud mason]

id

sending message only needs the channel id

[topaz rune]

then thats the same than my fetch, isn't? it's using id

[proud mason]

yes but fetch message makes an api call to discord

which is slow

[topaz rune]

oh k

[proud mason]

you get all the stuff from the channel like perms etc

which isnt needed for sending messages

[topaz rune]

ok, so my last problem (I hope) is this:

ctx.message.content

error:

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

maybe I should use ctx.command.name?

fck that's feels good

thanks yall

💙

[proud mason]

awesome

btw i would put both the messages in the same message

[topaz rune]

all of em?

[proud mason]

yea

just use \n

[topaz rune]

I can do a list and send with for el in list

[proud mason]

otherwise it will be spammy

eh no

send a single message

[topaz rune]

dude it's gonna be so long

ok

[proud mason]

difference of just 3 lines

[topaz rune]

as you want

[proud mason]

😂

[topaz rune]

@bot.event
async def on_error(event, *args, **kwargs):
    traceback_str = traceback.format_exc()
    await console.send(f'Une erreur est survenue lors de l\'événement {event} à {datetime.now().strftime("%H:%M:%S")} le {datetime.now().strftime("%d/%m/%Y")}.')
    await console.send(f"Traceback:\n`py\n{traceback_str}\n`\n\n\n")

async def send_error_message(ctx, error, command_content):
    traceback_str = ''.join(traceback.format_exception(type(error), error, error.__traceback__))
    if "You do not own this bot." in traceback_str:
        await ctx.respond("T'as pas le droit de faire ça :).")
    await console.send(f'L\'utilisateur <@{ctx.author.id}> a effectué la commande `{command_content}` dans le channel <#{ctx.channel.id}> à {datetime.now().strftime("%H:%M:%S")} le {datetime.now().strftime("%d/%m/%Y")}.')
    await console.send(f"Erreur:\n`py\n{error}\n`\nTraceback:\n`py\n{traceback_str}\n`\n")

good now?

only 2 message

🙂

ty

[proud mason]

better

[proud mason]

btw this

also point 3

[topaz rune]

why not

I dont want to have commands with prefix

I want all of em /

thats why idc

[proud mason]

lol

[proud mason]

the library could change the string

[topaz rune]

true

[proud mason]

better to check using classes

like this https://docs.pycord.dev/en/stable/ext/commands/api.html#discord.ext.commands.NotOwner

[violet heron]

how can i specify a user with the purge command?

[proud mason]

Use checks

In the purge method

.rtfm purge

[winter condor]

4 results

discord.Thread.purge
discord.TextChannel.purge
discord.ForumChannel.purge
discord.VoiceChannel.purge

[violet heron]

ive tried somehting like that

await channel.purge(limit=numbers, check=message.author==user)

where numbers is the limit, and user is the message author (deleting messages by the person who called the command)

but I get AttributeError: 'Message' object has no attribute 'purge'

[proud mason]

You would need a lambda

The check is a function

So smth like lambda m: m.author==user

[violet heron]

ahh

[proud mason]

Also, how did you define channel

[violet heron]

yeah this was the problem

my brain died and i had channel = message

fixed to channel = message.channel

thank u :)

[proud mason]

Lol

[tulip ledge]

I mean, in form of software

[jaunty raft]

can someone explain why?

[young bone]

[young bone]

uninstall this and py-cord and reinstall only py-cord

[jaunty raft]

got it

yeah it should work now

tho where is discord.ApplicationContext?

is it moved?

[young bone]

what?

[jaunty raft]

like discord slash command context

[proud mason]

no

[jaunty raft]

so its still

valid

[proud mason]

yes

[jaunty raft]

so my intellisense is wrong?

if thats the case then

[young bone]

?

[jaunty raft]

I just restart my pc

[young bone]

why?

[jaunty raft]

idk intelisense not doing his jobn

[young bone]

But you know basic python?

[jaunty raft]

yeah but discord.ApplicationContext

nevermind

its doing its job

thanks guys

[proud mason]

you should restart your ide when you install/uninstall libraries

[proper sundial]

Does the default built in help command work for slash commands or do I need to do that myself? I've seen it mentioned on the Pycord guide but i don't know if it works for slash commands also.

[silver moat]

we, like other discord libraries, have not decided to make a help command for slash commands because typing / already lists them

[proper sundial]

Alright then, fair enough.

[fervent cradle]

is it possible to have a requirement for a file with a slash command?

[young bone]

what?

[fervent cradle]

so when a user runs a slash command

e.g. /upload, they add a file

[silver moat]

yes, see

[fervent cradle]

ive been looking on the docs but cant find anything about it

unless im just blind lol

[young bone]

file: discord.Attachment

[silver moat]

https://github.com/Pycord-Development/pycord/blob/master/examples/app_commands/slash_options.py#L51-L67

[fervent cradle]

oh, that works with slash command?

[young bone]

.tias

[winter condor]

https://i.imgur.com/VkRzeQJ.png

[fervent cradle]

oh, thank you

[silver moat]

not particulary the first thing you think of when people only use discord.File

[young bone]

ye

[fervent cradle]

for some reason, this doesnt work, it doesnt show the attachment as an option

i tried includign the option when defining the function too

[silver moat]

show code?

[fervent cradle]

@slash_command(name="vdf")
    async def vdf(ctx: discord.ApplicationContext, attachment: option("VDF file", discord.Attachment, description="Your VDF file", required=True)):
        if attachment:
            file = attachment
            if file.filename != "config.vdf":
                return await ctx.respond("file is not a config.vdf")
            else:
                file = file.save()
                file = file.readlines()
                print(file)

its inside a cog if that mattters

i always remememberd option ot have a capital O?

but in that example it doesnt

[cyan quail]

you should be using the capitalized version there

[fervent cradle]

ah okay thansk

[cyan quail]

it's only lowercase if you use the decorator @option

also the type should be first, then you pass name= to change the name

option names have to be lowercase without spaces

[fervent cradle]

its been a while since ive worked with options

im pretty rusty now lol

[cyan quail]

it's fine, just gotta remember the restrictions

[fervent cradle]

for some reason it still doesnt show the option

[cyan quail]

did you restart?

[fervent cradle]

this is my new code:

[silver moat]

https://discord.com/developers/docs/interactions/application-commands#application-command-object-application-command-naming

[fervent cradle]

    @slash_command()
    async def vdf(ctx: discord.ApplicationContext, attachment: Option(discord.Attachment, name="vdffile", description="Your VDF file", required=True)):
        if attachment:
            file = attachment
            if file.filename != "config.vdf":
                return await ctx.respond("file is not a config.vdf")
            else:
                file = file.save()
                file = file.readlines()
                print(file)

[fervent cradle]

ive always named it inside the function like that

[cyan quail]

is this inside a cog?

[fervent cradle]

how i sent it

[silver moat]

try commenting out the command, run the bot, un-comment out the command, and re-run the bot. finally, restart your discord app

[fervent cradle]

yesi

alright thanks

[cyan quail]

first arg needs to be self

[fervent cradle]

oh yeah

[silver moat]

that too

[fervent cradle]

its 10pm i havent ate maybe i should eat and get some sleep 😅

yup its wokring with the first arg as self

i completely forget about that

thank you

[cyan quail]

allgood

[fervent cradle]

I have a command that will send an embed with two buttons to a channel. When I select one of these buttons I want it to DM the original command user. How can I do this?

class requestAccept(discord.ui.View):
    async def on_timeout(self):
        for child in self.children:
            child.disabled = True
        await self.message.edit(view=None)

    @discord.ui.button(emoji="✅", label="Accept", style=discord.ButtonStyle.grey)
    async def first_button_callback(self, button, interaction):
        user = await discord.Bot.fetch_user(None)
        user.send("Accepted")
        await interaction.message.edit(view=None)
        self.stop()

    @discord.ui.button(emoji="⛔", label="Deny", style=discord.ButtonStyle.grey)
    async def second_button_callback(self, button, interaction):  
        await interaction.message.edit(view=None)
        self.stop()

[proud mason]

Override the init and accept the author

Store it on a self variable

Don't forget to call super init

Then in the callback just do await self.author.send(...)

Oh and pass ctx.author when creating the view

[fervent cradle]

Worked, thank you!

[topaz rune]

Hiii my friends 🙂

@commands.slash_command(
        name="xp", description="Commande qui affiche l'xp d'un utilisateur"

        required=False,
        type=discord.User,
    )

how can I edit my first response please guys?

[proud mason]

.rtfm ctx.edit_original

[winter condor]

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

[proud mason]

Oops

.rtfm context.edit_original

[winter condor]

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

[proud mason]

Try await ctx.edit_original_response
If not then ctx.interaction.edit_original_response

[topaz rune]

it work, ty!

[cedar bluff]

How do I make embedded pages? What I mean is that the person clicks the button not reaction and it goes to the next page or back a page. I tried the guides but it didn't really help much.

[proud mason]

i believe you are referring to paginators

see this https://guide.pycord.dev/extensions/pages/paginator-basics and this https://github.com/Pycord-Development/pycord/blob/master/examples/views/paginator.py

[cedar bluff]

yes. but is there a simpler way to do the code?

[proud mason]

hmm it is pretty simple imo

[cedar bluff]

I'll give it a shot.

[proud mason]

you can always build your own if you want

but thats probably more effort

[cedar bluff]

How do I send the paged embeds?

[proud mason]

paginator.send if prefix cmd

[cedar bluff]

thx.

[proud mason]

paginator.respond if interactions

[cedar bluff]

hmm, weird error:

discord.errors.ApplicationCommandInvokeError: Application Command raised an exception: TypeError: expected Context not <class 'discord.commands.context.ApplicationContext'>```

[proud mason]

full error?

[cedar bluff]

It's a bit big but... ```Traceback (most recent call last):

you are using slash cmds

[cedar bluff]

yeah.

[proud mason]

use this

[cedar bluff]

now i got raise ApplicationCommandInvokeError(exc) from exc discord.errors.ApplicationCommandInvokeError: Application Command raised an exception: TypeError: expected Interaction or BridgeContext, not <class 'discord.commands.context.ApplicationContext'>

[young bone]

what is the py-cord version?

[silver moat]

ctx.interaction

[cedar bluff]

2.3.2

[proud mason]

update to 2.4.1

[cedar bluff]

done.

[proud mason]

and pass this

[cedar bluff]

great.
another error

discord.errors.ApplicationCommandInvokeError: Application Command raised an exception: TypeError: 'Interaction' object is not callable```

[proud mason]

how did you pass it

just do await paginator.respond(ctx.interaction)

thats it

[cedar bluff]

oh ok, i'll try it now. idk why i did await ctx.interaction(paginator) lol

[proud mason]

lmao

[cedar bluff]

It worked, thanks!

[silver moat]

what about ```py
async def ctx.interaction():
pass

[silver moat]

yay

[proud mason]

uh wtf? 💀

[cedar bluff]

Now time to make this an embed for something...

[cedar bluff]

oh wait, my_pages is the embeds. but it's never used.

[proud mason]

??

[cedar bluff]

the guide you linked. idk what to do with the my_pages which contains the embed.

[signal topaz]

Um if an argument is used to mention a user, how can you fetch the id of the user?

[cedar bluff]

thanks.

[full basin]

user.id?..

[violet heron]

How to set nick of user

Member.edit and member.nick don’t work

[stiff crest]

attach ctx and then ctx.edit(nick="new nick")

[violet heron]

What should the member variable be?

I have it as user attribute

[stiff crest]

i have all intents btw

[frank thistle]

Is there a way to have slash command options which are required only in certain cases? I assume not right?

For example

Command: /balance
Options 1: View, Withdraw, Deposit
Option 2: Amount

/balance View
/balance Withdraw [Amount]
/balance Deposit [Amount]

Make the [Amount] required when the first option is not equal to View

[jaunty raft]

hey guys how do I use ctx.defer()?

[frank thistle]

await ctx.defer()

[jaunty raft]

and then await ctx.respond()?

[frank thistle]

No, then you followup

for example: await ctx.followup.send

[jaunty raft]

so like:

async def cmd(ctx: discord.ApplicationContext) -> None:
  await ctx.defer()
  await ctx.followup.send("defer")

[frank thistle]

yes

[jaunty raft]

and for how long will it wait? or like hold

[frank thistle]

It wont hold for any amount of time if you dont have any code in between the send

Defering just means it wont say Interaction Failed once there has been no response for longer than 3 seconds

[jaunty raft]

ohh makes sense

thanks got it

[violet heron]

Is it ok if I ask you my question from before

[frank thistle]

Course

[violet heron]

I have await member.edit(nick=“nick”)

With member being a user object

Code returns error “‘User’ object has no attribute ‘edit’”

[frank thistle]

Ok? and whats your problem with that

The User object, has no attribute edit so you need a Member object

[proud mason]

how did you get the member object?

[frank thistle]

You can get a member object by looping over guild.members or by using get_member

[proud mason]

||15 mins is actually the limit btw||

[violet heron]

Member = await client.fetch_user()

[proud mason]

yea no

[violet heron]

Inside parentheses is an id

[proud mason]

use guild.get_member

[frank thistle]

Yeah i know lmao but who has the attention span of 15 min to ever see that interaction fail

[proud mason]

yea like this

[violet heron]

I’ll try it thank you

[frank thistle]

You can also make it an option if its a slash command

[proud mason]

😂

[frank thistle]

eg discord.Option(discord.Member, required=True

[proud mason]

discord.Member, not just member

[frank thistle]

I do it a lot, defer things and never actually followup to them

[proud mason]

you could rather just send Ok! or smth lol

[frank thistle]

Ya but thats ugly

esp when using buttons and dropdowns etc

Imagine, clicking a button which takes some time to process and it says 'Okay!' every time you click it 😂

[proud mason]

oh yea you can defer and ignore for buttons. not for slash cmds tho

[frank thistle]

Yeah no, I dont really defer ever for commands

[proud mason]

defer and ignore is actually the best way for components

[frank thistle]

YOUR BOT IS THINKING

[frank thistle]

Im guessing this aint possible? @proud mason

[proud mason]

nope

you could use slash cmd groups

that would achieve a similar functionality

[frank thistle]

Its nicer to have one command with the options tho :(

[proud mason]

[frank thistle]

Ah well, will just have to keep amount optional

[proud mason]

discord limitation

[violet heron]

@proud mason it still not working T-T

[solemn idol]

wasn't there a way to make it so that if the buttons expired you could make the bot reply if someone still tried to press one?

[frank thistle]

Show your code

[violet heron]

One sec

[frank thistle]

If it expired, no, just make it not expire :p

[solemn idol]

I used typing once to illustrate that the bot was doing something... because defer would override ephemerals for the response later sent :-:

[solemn idol]

hm sucks

[cyan quail]

i mean, they won't expire as long as you tell them not to

[solemn idol]

So I could basically add a custom expiration?

[frank thistle]

yes

[cyan quail]

if you actually want them to expire then either remove the buttons or disable them and edit the message

[frank thistle]

Or use self.stop()

[violet heron]

` Given p = user_id (tested and is an actual id)
K = string for nick
guild=message.guild
member= guild.get_member(p)
print(message.author)
print(member)
await member.edit(nick=k)
await message.reply(f"Nickname updated for {p.display_name}") ```

Mobile moment

[cyan quail]

is your user_id an int

[violet heron]

Yeah

[solemn idol]

So I could just define my timeout to be None in the class of the ui?

[violet heron]

Guild.get_member returns none

[cyan quail]

inside View you pass timeout=None

but this won't protect against restarts, you'd have to make it persistent

[solemn idol]

the wha-

[errant crane]

Here's the persistent example.

[violet heron]

And fetch_user worked and gave a user object, but it’s still reported as user object not having edit attribute

[cyan quail]

because it doesn't

User and Member are different

[violet heron]

Ah

[cyan quail]

just checking, what happens when you print guild.members

[violet heron]

[<Member id=1087100813593301053 name='asuka' discriminator='0226' bot=True nick='asuka' guild=<Guild id=1050189593628119130 name="Cat's Cafe" shard_id=0 chunked=False member_count=55>>]

Hmm

[cyan quail]

is that correct?

[solemn idol]

why did discord make buttons expire in the first place?

[violet heron]

It’s the id for bot

[cyan quail]

but presumably that isn't all your members

have you enabled the members intent?

[violet heron]

All intents are enabled

[cyan quail]

in code as well?

[cyan quail]

well they kinda don't... we have a default view timeout of 3 minutes

discord's structure of interactions is pretty different to how we present it to the user

[solemn idol]

but why-

[cyan quail]

i'll be real

idk

[solemn idol]

LOL

honest xD ill take it

[violet heron]

Something changed, I’m gonna experiment a bit more and get back to ya 🙏

[cyan quail]

ohok havefun

[violet heron]

Ah

So now it’s giving missing permissions for the member.edit line

[cyan quail]

is the bot's top role above the member's top role?

[violet heron]

Wdym

[cyan quail]

you can't edit the nickname of someone with a higher role than you

or the guild owner

[violet heron]

Oh

Yeah maybe nicking myself like an idiot is bad

[cyan quail]

rip LOL

[violet heron]

Ok now

It’s not returning an error but their nick isn’t being updated

Prolly on my end again

Got it to work tysm

[coarse cargo]

Its possible to update the choices list of a command after giving it one without need to restart? I have a command that uploads a file to a folder and i want it to show up as choice in the command but it doesn't. Any solutions?

[young bone]

you could use autocomplete

[errant crane]

Here's the slash autocomplete example.

[coarse cargo]

Ty, i'll try

[coarse cargo]

General question, it's better like this:

def get_datanamesfile():
    with open('data/data_names.json') as data_names:
        json_data = json.load(data_names)
        return json_data


def get_keys():
    with open('data/data_names.json') as data_names:
        json_data = json.load(data_names)
        keys = [key for key in json_data.keys()]
        return keys


def get_filepath(name):
    with open('data/data_names.json') as data_names:
        json_data = json.load(data_names)
        filepath = json_data[name].get('filepath')
        return filepath

Or like this

with open('data/data_names.json') as data_names:
    json_data = json.load(data_names)

def get_datanamesfile():
        return json_data


def get_keys():
        keys = [key for key in json_data.keys()]
        return keys


def get_filepath(name):
        filepath = json_data[name].get('filepath')
        return filepath

So open the file 1 time or multiple times

[cyan quail]

the latter

but you still need to save it back after

[alpine kernel]

had the idea to store discord user id's as a primary key in a sqlite db, but looking at the highest value user id in my dataset and it's ~1x10^18 and max int size in sqlite is ~9x10^18, any thoughts if that's a bad idea? and if so alternative methods?

[cyan quail]

store it as a string

that's how discord does it on their API already

the only reason we use ints is because python supports large ints pretty cleanly

[alpine kernel]

mmm k, just was aware of performance differences in int vs string

[dry fulcrum]

Quick question, I currently have a bot with a few cogs using application command, the bot loaded all other cogs fine, but on 1 specific cog, it cannot seem to register any of the command, in a debug session the command doesn't show up at all in the AllCommand list, but the cog itself show on the cog list, is there any common cause for this issue?

Current amount of cog is 7 cogs, total amount of command registered is 47 commands

[proud mason]

.slashnoshow

[winter condor]

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

[proud mason]

Points 2 and 3 are important

[dry fulcrum]

All are yes, except the share your code part, which I don't get, like share it here?

Actually the cog are loaded within on_ready

And upon further testing, when I removed all cog except for this one, then the commands show up

Could it be the command limit?

[proud mason]

in the on_ready event?

[dry fulcrum]

yea, like the first line of on_ready

is loading the cog

[proud mason]

you should load your cogs before on ready

outside of it

[dry fulcrum]

one of my cog actually need the user id from the bot object

[proud mason]

hmm

[dry fulcrum]

but the issue is resolved no

[proud mason]

where does it need it?

[dry fulcrum]

the issue was discord not actually pulling the changes down, or my client not pulling

I executed a command that doesn't exist anymore, and volla, the new commands all showed up

[proud mason]

well cmds are synced before ready. if you load your cmds after ready, then they wont be sync

if you run a cmd and pycord finds a difference in registered vs local, it willl. resync

[dry fulcrum]

any way to manually do a sync then?

[proud mason]

ngl load before ready

[proud mason]

^

does it need the id in the init?

[dry fulcrum]

It does, the init for a cog initiate a connection to another service, which utilize the bot id as a parameter

[proud mason]

you could use a special method and call it on ready, which sets and uses the id

[proud mason]

why not do that connection on ready?

[dry fulcrum]

it's in a cog so..

i can't exactly put a second on_ready in a cog, right?

[proud mason]

You can have event listners in cogs

[dry fulcrum]

wait, so i can have 2 on_ready(s)?

[proud mason]

yes

[dry fulcrum]

O.o

okay that changes a lot then

[proud mason]

1 cog can only have 1 iirc

.rtm cog.listener

.rtfm cog.listener

[winter condor]

2 results

discord.Cog.listener
discord.ext.commands.Cog.listener

[proud mason]

2nd one

[dry fulcrum]

huh..

i thought there can only be 1 event listener for each event

[proud mason]

in the main file, yes

[dry fulcrum]

wait, so for example, if i have 2 on_ready(), one in a cog, and one in the main file, both of them will triggers with the corresponding code?

on_message(), i mean

sorry

[proud mason]

Usage would be-

class MyCog(...):
  
  @commands.Cog.listener()
  async def on_ready(self):
    print("hi")

[proud mason]

yes both will run

[dry fulcrum]

one more question, so for the on_message, if i have more than 1 of them, in which one should i put the process_message_command? Or do I not need to use that at all now? (I don't use prefix command anymore, just slash commands)

i definitely butchered the messagecommand stff, didn't i..

[proud mason]

if you dont have any prefix cmds then you dont need it

[dry fulcrum]

Alright, i can skip that one then

thank you for your help

[proud mason]

[somber pelican]

what could be the cause for this?

the stack doesn't show anything about my files, just discord/client.py

[full basin]

?tag sslfix

Google the error. High chance its on stackoverflow

[vital timber]

Hello friends. Quick Q here

If a user initiates a DM with my bot and my bot responds to it - is it still at risk of triggering Discord's DM softban?

[grizzled sentinel]

I wouldn't think so but I can try to verify

[vital timber]

How can we verify? I wouldn't want to take up much of your time

[grizzled sentinel]

I just posted the question in ddevs discord.

Just to be sure. The user would not be using a slashcommand it would be a message?

[vital timber]

Correct

Would triggering a slashcommand in a DM make a difference if the response is a message?

Or if the response is asynchronous - like say, a timer - so the response wouldn't be within the context of the same Interaction

[full basin]

The only attribute you lose in a dm context is the guild

And guild related stuff ofc

[hardy crescent]

How do i prevent blocking code when i create a image with Pillow?
it takes 3sec and blocks all other tasks in the bot

[full basin]

Use an async library

[hardy crescent]

Could you recommend one where i can join 3 images in to 1 big image?

[grizzled sentinel]

Its not certain but the response was

probably only by mass-DMing without user action (you send the msg to the bot, that counts as user action!) will you get softban and also create msg don't initiate DM ban, only create DMs

[vital timber]

So just to make sure I understand - as long as the user initiated the private channel creation (i.e. started the DM) - I should be safe from softban?
