alexflipnote/discord_bot.py

🍺 A simple discord bot that helps you getting started within discord.py

Do you need more help? Visit my server here: https://discord.gg/AlexFlipnote 🍺

Requirements

• Python 3.10 and up - https://www.python.org/downloads/
• Discord bot with Message Intent enabled

Useful to always have

Keep this saved somewhere, as this is the docs to discord.py@rewrite. All you need to know about the library is defined inside here, even code that I don't use in this example is here.

This code is also made to be as typing friendly as possible with comments and everything. I recommend having Visual Studio Code with the Python extension installed to help you out with the code.

How to setup

1. Make a bot here and grab the token

2. Rename the file .env.example to .env, then fill in the required spots, such as token, prefix and game

3. To install what you need, do pip install -r requirements.txt
   (If that doesn't work, do python -m pip install -r requirements.txt)
   NOTE: Use pip install with Administrator/sudo

4. Start the bot by having the cmd/terminal inside the bot folder and type python index.py

5. You're done, enjoy your bot!

FAQ

Q: I don't see my bot on my server!
A: Invite it by using this URL: https://discordapp.com/oauth2/authorize?client_id=CLIENT_ID&scope=bot
Remember to replace CLIENT_ID with your bot client ID

Q: There aren't that many commands here...
A: Yes, I will only provide a few commands to get you started, maybe adding more later.

Q: Why the beer with the discord logo?
A: Because the framework is made so simple that even a drunk guy can set it up.

Optional tools

Flake8

Flake8 is a tool that helps you keep your code clean. Most coding softwares will have a plugin that supports this Python module so it can be integrated with your IDE. To install it, simply do pip install flake8. If you're using python 3.7, install by doing pip install -e git+https://gitlab.com/pycqa/flake8#egg=flake8

PM2

PM2 is an alternative script provided by NodeJS, which will reboot your bot whenever it crashes and keep it up with a nice status. You can install it by doing npm install -g pm2 and you should be done. Keep in mind that this PM2 file is made to work on my own Linux instance, you might need to change the interpreter value.

# Start the bot
pm2 start pm2.json

# Tips on common commands
pm2 <command> [name]
  start discord_bot.py    Run the bot again if it's offline
  list                    Get a full list of all available services
  stop discord_bot.py     Stop the bot
  reboot discord_bot.py   Reboot the bot

Docker

Docker is an alternative to run the bot 24/7 and always reboot again whenever it crashed. You can find the install manual here. You don't have to get it, but if you're used to having Docker, it's available at least.

# Build and run the Dockerfile
docker-compose up -d --build

# Tips on common commands
docker-compose <command>
  ps      Check if bot is online or not (list)
  down    Shut down the bot
  reboot  Reboot the bot without shutting it down or rebuilding
  logs    Check the logs made by the bot.

discord_bot.py's Issues

Error

Can somebody help, when i typed python3 index.pyit showed me this error:

[SSLCertVerificationError: (1, '[SSL: CERTIFICATE_VERIFY_FAILED] certificate verify failed: unable to get local issuer certificate (_ssl.c:1076)')]

discord.ext.commands.errors.CommandNotFound

only the help command is working and it gives this `​No Category: help Shows this message

Type shelp command for more info on a command.
You can also type shelp category for more info on a category.
`

Python question

I use python 3.9.6, the bot will work?

No module name discord?

discord_bot.py/index.py

Line 13 in 106cc68

allowed_mentions=discord.AllowedMentions(roles=False, users=True, everyone=False),

[QUESTION]Whats up with the api tokens?

Whats the point with having api tokens if you provide no documentation for them? And isnt this repo supposed to be for new coming users to dpy? i dont think having to find your api docs to use your dog / cat / etc commands is nice to have for new people.

Music Related command not working

The command playing gets this error.

Unfortunately, this is all I could trace.
The code doesn't seem to have problems as far as I can tell. Will continue to investigate.

R

how to make bot not case sensitive?

for most discord bots you can add case_insensitive=true and the bot won't be case sensitive, but because of how the bot is setup using the config.json file you can't

from discord.utils import default not working

Whenever i try hosting my bot with a few code of this source code i get this error
well i rename utils to discord.utils thought it would work but didnt
if you could add me on discord and we discuss about it @sashank#7581 or join my test server for a while https://discord.gg/s8S8a3d
