I created a lot of moderation teams, ban, kick muta, etc. I tried to do such a thing: If a person enters a command (for example, ban) and does not enter arguments (participant name and reason), the bot gives the corresponding message that there are not enough arguments and which one. Please help!
MissingRequiredArgument is called whenever a parameter that is required, is not encountered. You can use this exception to send a message in chat whenever a required argument is missing.
MissingRequiredArgument also has a parameter of its own, which details the argument that is missing.
Hope this points you in the right direction!
That's simple to implement. Here is the snippet of code to give you an idea.
async def test(ctx,name = None,reason = None):
if name == None or reason == None:
await ctx.send('Provide the Name and Reason')
else:
#PROCEEED HERE
pass

I want to make it so when a member says: !contact, it opens a private text channel that only the creator can see, as well as the admins. I am very new to discord.py so sorry if this seems like a basic question. Ik there are other questions like this, but none of them seem to work, they say "guild is not defined"
Edit: sorry for not providing code
When posting questions on StackOverflow, you should always try to give examples of what code you have been trying and what you're confused over. Our purpose by answering your questions is to give you a better understanding of a topic and to make sure that you understand what you did wrong, and how to improve.
To get an instance of the current guild that the command is being run in, you can utilize the command context's guild property. Once we have an instance of the guild, we can create a text channel and specify permissions that we want the channel to have. When specifying the channel overwrites, you use a dictionary to map either a role or member to permission overwrite.
import discord
#client.command()
async def contact(ctx):
guild = ctx.guild
admin_role = guild.get_role(0) # Replace with id of admin role
overwrites = {
guild.default_role: discord.PermissionOverwrite(view_channel=False),
ctx.author: discord.PermissionOverwrite(view_channel=True),
admin_role: discord.PermissionOverwrite(view_channel=True),
guild.me: discord.PermissionOverwrite(view_channel=True)
}
await guild.create_text_channel("private-channel", overwrites=overwrites) # Replace with name of text channel
I'm trying to have my discord.py bot mention a member in a suspension from the server, then give them the suspended role. However, I don't know what to put in the embed and even if I just put something in there, it won't send the message. I also am not sure if it will role. Here's my code:
#bot.command(pass_ctx=True)
#commands.has_permission(administrator=True)
async def suspend(ctx, *, self, member = discord.Member):
embed = discord.Embed(
colour = discord.Colour.red(title='Successful Suspension'))
[
embed.add_field(name='Details', value='')]
await ctx.send(embed=embed)
await member.add_roles('Suspended')
else:
await ctx.send('Insufficient Permissions.')
I also get a syntax error on the else: function.
First of all I'm going to answer your question. You can use discord.Member.mention (In your case you can simply write member.mention) to mention someone.
Secondly, I'm going to help with your embed:
The arguments in the function are messy.
Why did you put a title inside discord.Colour.red()? Thats a colour, and it's used for changing your embed sidebar color (Also you can't change your text color if that's what you were trying to do).
In embed fields you cannot have nothing in the value. value=''
You have a small typo, it's has_permissions()
I don't like spoonfeeding, but your code should look something like this:
#bot.command(pass_ctx=True)
#commands.has_permissions(administrator=True)
async def suspend(self, ctx, *, member = discord.Member):
embed = discord.Embed(title='Succesful Suspension', colour=discord.Colour.red())
embed.add_field(name='Details', value='A')
await ctx.send(embed=embed)
await member.add_roles('Suspended')
I alsoremoved the last part of your code because It didn't make sense. See error handling.
I think this is all, hope that this worked and I recommend you to have a look at the docs.
If someone finds anything wrong, tell me in the comments.
So i have seen another post with almost the exact same question however, mine is different.
I am fully aware there is a Patreon bot, however to my knowledge this is only valid on servers.
So lets say someone invites my bot, and tries a command that requires them to be a patron. How could my bot written in python do a check to see if they have become a patron for my product? And then set a role for them accordingly. Which i can then do the check on to allow them access to the command or not.
So essentially, it should do what the Patreon bot does, however would work on its own. Examples are such as the Dank Memer bot: which can be invited to any server and if one becomes a patron can use specific commands, otherwise you can't
I've looked around this topic for a while now and haven't been able to find any info on how to check if the user has become a patron or not.
Many thanks in advance!
If you know the patreons. just give them a role [patreons] or any name!
after giving them the role. copy the role id and paste it in patreons_role_id
ok, what this command does is, just it check for the [patreons] role in the member roles! if the [patreons] role is present! it will execute the #your code else it sends a custom message!
#client.event()
async def on_message(message):
if message.content == '!test':
is_patreon = False
for user_roles in message.author.roles:
if user_roles.id == patreons_role_id:
is_patreon = True
break
if is_patreon == True:#your code
else: await message.channel.send('THIS COMMAND IS ONLY AVAILABLE FOR PATREON!')
Let's assume you have a role for your patreons.
#client.command()
#commands.has_roles("PatreonRole")
async def commandname(ctx, args):
#do stuff
There is a way out, but its probably not the right one, so, If you know who your patreons are and you know their discord IDs as well, you can declare an if statement in the command similar to this -
#client.command()
async def your_command_name():
if member.id == #Your 1st Patreon's Discord ID:
#Your Code
elif member.id == #Your 2nd Patreon's Discord ID:
#Your code
else:
await ctx.send("You cannot use that command as you are not a patreon!")
But again this is probably not right way if you have a lot of patreons or you dont know their Discord IDs, but anyways this way was the only way I could come up with.
I hope that helped. :)
So I'm new to Python and I decided to take the plunge and make a Discord bot for personal use in my server. I like the idea of having full control over what features my bot will have so I'm slowly building the bot. Currently I want my bot to show the current number of members in the server when called with a command
import discord
from discord.ext import commands
#botbot.command()
async def server(ctx):
guild = discord.Guild.member_count
await ctx.send(guild)
I know I'm most likely way off with my code here.
While the bot is sending a message into the chat, its formatted as:
<property object at 0x046036C0>
While I would like to have it say something like "This server has {some number} members."
Any advice is really appreciated!
Thank you for your time.
Edit: botbot is the name for my bot, just so thats clear.
discord.Guild is the class. You want to get the guild the command is in from the invocation context:
#botbot.command()
async def server(ctx):
await ctx.send(f"This server has {ctx.guild.member_count} members.")
The method member_count is not really what you want in this occasion, the guild object has a list called members, so it's as easy as getting the length of that list like so:
#botbot.command()
async def server(ctx):
guild = len(discord.guild.members)
await ctx.send(guild)
EDIT: And indeed you have a typo with using "Guild" instead of "guild"
What I'm trying to do is to make my discord bot send a message to a channel in my server when I supply it the command "!say" through DM.
I've tried a lot of different codes, but usually, it ends up with the Attribute Error "X object has no attribute Y"
from discord.ext import commands
bot = commands.Bot(command_prefix='!')
#bot.command()
async def say(ctx):
channel = bot.get_channel('584307345065246725')
await channel.send(ctx)
The error message always shows up when I DM the bot, expecting for it to send the required message.
There is a pretty simple thing going on with your code snippet that needs to be corrected before it'll do what you're attempting to make it do.
First off, take a look at the API section for Client.get_channel (which you're calling):
get_channel(id)
Returns a channel with the given ID.
Parameters
id (int) – The ID to search for.
Returns
The returned channel or None if not found.
Return type
Optional[Union[abc.GuildChannel, abc.PrivateChannel]]
So, when you do this: channel = bot.get_channel('584307345065246725'), you're passing an incorrect argument. As per the API, the only parameter must be an int, but you are passing a string. Simply get rid of the single quotes and that should be fine.
Protip: Under "Returns," the API states that it can return None if the channel isn't found, which is what is happening to you, since you're passing in a string. Hence, channel becomes the NoneType object you see in the error. So when you do channel.send... you get the picture.
The channel id is an int, not a string
#bot.command()
async def say(ctx):
channel = bot.get_channel(584307345065246725)
await channel.send(ctx)
What I didn't quite understand is why you couldn't just do:
from discord.ext import commands
bot = commands.Bot(command_prefix='!')
#bot.command(pass_context=True)
async def say(ctx):
await ctx.send(ctx)
But I could be mistaken about what you are trying to do.
