Extensions

These extensions help you during development when it comes to common tasks.

disnake.ext.commands – Bot commands framework

disnake offers a lower level aspect on interacting with Discord. Often times, the library is used for the creation of bots. However this task can be daunting and confusing to get correctly the first time. Many times there comes a repetition in creating a bot command framework that is extensible, flexible, and powerful. For this reason, disnake comes with an extension library that handles this for you.

Commands

One of the most appealing aspects of the command extension is how easy it is to define commands and how you can arbitrarily nest groups and commands to have a rich sub-command system.

Commands are defined by attaching it to a regular Python function. The command is then invoked by the user using a similar signature to the Python function.

For example, in the given command definition:

@bot.command()
async def foo(ctx, arg):
    await ctx.send(arg)

With the following prefix ($), it would be invoked by the user via:

$foo abc

A command must always have at least one parameter, ctx, which is the Context as the first one.

There are two ways of registering a command. The first one is by using Bot.command() decorator, as seen in the example above. The second is using the command() decorator followed by Bot.add_command() on the instance.

Essentially, these two are equivalent:

from disnake.ext import commands

bot = commands.Bot(command_prefix='$')

@bot.command()
async def test(ctx):
    pass

# or:

@commands.command()
async def test(ctx):
    pass

bot.add_command(test)

Since the Bot.command() decorator is shorter and easier to comprehend, it will be the one used throughout the documentation here.

Any parameter that is accepted by the Command constructor can be passed into the decorator. For example, to change the name to something other than the function would be as simple as doing this:

@bot.command(name='list')
async def _list(ctx, arg):
    pass

Parameters

Since we define commands by making Python functions, we also define the argument passing behaviour by the function parameters.

Certain parameter types do different things in the user side and most forms of parameter types are supported.

Positional

The most basic form of parameter passing is the positional parameter. This is where we pass a parameter as-is:

@bot.command()
async def test(ctx, arg):
    await ctx.send(arg)

On the bot using side, you can provide positional arguments by just passing a regular string:

To make use of a word with spaces in between, you should quote it:

As a note of warning, if you omit the quotes, you will only get the first word:

Since positional arguments are just regular Python arguments, you can have as many as you want:

@bot.command()
async def test(ctx, arg1, arg2):
    await ctx.send(f'You passed {arg1} and {arg2}')

Variable

Sometimes you want users to pass in an undetermined number of parameters. The library supports this similar to how variable list parameters are done in Python:

@bot.command()
async def test(ctx, *args):
    arguments = ', '.join(args)
    await ctx.send(f'{len(args)} arguments: {arguments}')

This allows our user to accept either one or many arguments as they please. This works similar to positional arguments, so multi-word parameters should be quoted.

For example, on the bot side:

If the user wants to input a multi-word argument, they have to quote it like earlier:

Do note that similar to the Python function behaviour, a user can technically pass no arguments at all:

Since the args variable is a tuple, you can do anything you would usually do with one.

Keyword-Only Arguments

When you want to handle parsing of the argument yourself or do not feel like you want to wrap multi-word user input into quotes, you can ask the library to give you the rest as a single argument. We do this by using a keyword-only argument, seen below:

@bot.command()
async def test(ctx, *, arg):
    await ctx.send(arg)

Warning

You can only have one keyword-only argument due to parsing ambiguities.

On the bot side, we do not need to quote input with spaces:

Do keep in mind that wrapping it in quotes leaves it as-is:

By default, the keyword-only arguments are stripped of white space to make it easier to work with. This behaviour can be toggled by the Command.rest_is_raw argument in the decorator.

Invocation Context

As seen earlier, every command must take at least a single parameter, called the Context.

This parameter gives you access to something called the “invocation context”. Essentially all the information you need to know how the command was executed. It contains a lot of useful information:

• Context.guild to fetch the Guild of the command, if any.

• Context.message to fetch the Message of the command.

• Context.author to fetch the Member or User that called the command.

• Context.send() to send a message to the channel the command was used in.

The context implements the abc.Messageable interface, so anything you can do on a abc.Messageable you can do on the Context.

Converters

Adding bot arguments with function parameters is only the first step in defining your bot’s command interface. To actually make use of the arguments, we usually want to convert the data into a target type. We call these Converters.

Converters come in a few flavours:

• A regular callable object that takes an argument as a sole parameter and returns a different type.

  • These range from your own function, to something like bool or int.

• A custom class that inherits from Converter.

Basic Converters

At its core, a basic converter is a callable that takes in an argument and turns it into something else.

For example, if we wanted to add two numbers together, we could request that they are turned into integers for us by specifying the converter:

@bot.command()
async def add(ctx, a: int, b: int):
    await ctx.send(a + b)

We specify converters by using something called a function annotation. This is a Python 3 exclusive feature that was introduced in PEP 3107.

This works with any callable, such as a function that would convert a string to all upper-case:

def to_upper(argument):
    return argument.upper()

@bot.command()
async def up(ctx, *, content: to_upper):
    await ctx.send(content)

bool

Unlike the other basic converters, the bool converter is treated slightly different. Instead of casting directly to the bool type, which would result in any non-empty argument returning True, it instead evaluates the argument as True or False based on its given content:

if lowered in ('yes', 'y', 'true', 't', '1', 'enable', 'on'):
    return True
elif lowered in ('no', 'n', 'false', 'f', '0', 'disable', 'off'):
    return False

Advanced Converters

Sometimes a basic converter doesn’t have enough information that we need. For example, sometimes we want to get some information from the Message that called the command or we want to do some asynchronous processing.

For this, the library provides the Converter interface. This allows you to have access to the Context and have the callable be asynchronous. Defining a custom converter using this interface requires overriding a single method, Converter.convert().

An example converter:

import random

class Slapper(commands.Converter):
    async def convert(self, ctx, argument):
        to_slap = random.choice(ctx.guild.members)
        return f'{ctx.author} slapped {to_slap} because *{argument}*'

@bot.command()
async def slap(ctx, *, reason: Slapper):
    await ctx.send(reason)

The converter provided can either be constructed or not. Essentially these two are equivalent:

@bot.command()
async def slap(ctx, *, reason: Slapper):
    await ctx.send(reason)

# is the same as...

@bot.command()
async def slap(ctx, *, reason: Slapper()):
    await ctx.send(reason)

Having the possibility of the converter be constructed allows you to set up some state in the converter’s __init__ for fine tuning the converter. An example of this is actually in the library, clean_content.

@bot.command()
async def clean(ctx, *, content: commands.clean_content):
    await ctx.send(content)

# or for fine-tuning

@bot.command()
async def clean(ctx, *, content: commands.clean_content(use_nicknames=False)):
    await ctx.send(content)

If a converter fails to convert an argument to its designated target type, the BadArgument exception must be raised.

Inline Advanced Converters

If we don’t want to inherit from Converter, we can still provide a converter that has the advanced functionalities of an advanced converter and save us from specifying two types.

For example, a common idiom would be to have a class and a converter for that class:

class JoinDistance:
    def __init__(self, joined, created):
        self.joined = joined
        self.created = created

    @property
    def delta(self):
        return self.joined - self.created

class JoinDistanceConverter(commands.MemberConverter):
    async def convert(self, ctx, argument):
        member = await super().convert(ctx, argument)
        return JoinDistance(member.joined_at, member.created_at)

@bot.command()
async def delta(ctx, *, member: JoinDistanceConverter):
    is_new = member.delta.days < 100
    if is_new:
        await ctx.send("Hey you're pretty new!")
    else:
        await ctx.send("Hm you're not so new.")

This can get tedious, so an inline advanced converter is possible through a classmethod() inside the type:

class JoinDistance:
    def __init__(self, joined, created):
        self.joined = joined
        self.created = created

    @classmethod
    async def convert(cls, ctx, argument):
        member = await commands.MemberConverter().convert(ctx, argument)
        return cls(member.joined_at, member.created_at)

    @property
    def delta(self):
        return self.joined - self.created

@bot.command()
async def delta(ctx, *, member: JoinDistance):
    is_new = member.delta.days < 100
    if is_new:
        await ctx.send("Hey you're pretty new!")
    else:
        await ctx.send("Hm you're not so new.")

Discord Converters

Working with Discord Models is a fairly common thing when defining commands, as a result the library makes working with them easy.

For example, to receive a Member you can just pass it as a converter:

@bot.command()
async def joined(ctx, *, member: disnake.Member):
    await ctx.send(f'{member} joined on {member.joined_at}')

When this command is executed, it attempts to convert the string given into a Member and then passes it as a parameter for the function. This works by checking if the string is a mention, an ID, a nickname, a username + discriminator, or just a regular username. The default set of converters have been written to be as easy to use as possible.

A lot of Discord models work out of the gate as a parameter:

• Object (since v2.0)

• Member

• User

• Message (since v1.1)

• PartialMessage (since v1.7)

• abc.GuildChannel (since 2.0)

• TextChannel

• VoiceChannel

• StageChannel (since v1.7)

• CategoryChannel

• ForumChannel (since v2.5)

• Thread (since v2.0)

• Colour

• Role

• Game

• Invite

• Guild (since v1.7)

• Emoji

• PartialEmoji

• GuildSticker (since v2.0)

• Permissions (since v2.3)

• GuildScheduledEvent (since v2.5)

Having any of these set as the converter will intelligently convert the argument to the appropriate target type you specify.

Under the hood, these are implemented by the Advanced Converters interface. A table of the equivalent converter is given below:

Discord Class	Converter
Object	ObjectConverter
Member	MemberConverter
User	UserConverter
Message	MessageConverter
PartialMessage	PartialMessageConverter
GuildChannel	GuildChannelConverter
TextChannel	TextChannelConverter
VoiceChannel	VoiceChannelConverter
StageChannel	StageChannelConverter
CategoryChannel	CategoryChannelConverter
ForumChannel	ForumChannelConverter
Thread	ThreadConverter
Colour	ColourConverter
Role	RoleConverter
Game	GameConverter
Invite	InviteConverter
Guild	GuildConverter
Emoji	EmojiConverter
PartialEmoji	PartialEmojiConverter
GuildSticker	GuildStickerConverter
Permissions	PermissionsConverter
GuildScheduledEvent	GuildScheduledEventConverter

By providing the converter it allows us to use them as building blocks for another converter:

class MemberRoles(commands.MemberConverter):
    async def convert(self, ctx, argument):
        member = await super().convert(ctx, argument)
        return [role.name for role in member.roles[1:]] # Remove everyone role!

@bot.command()
async def roles(ctx, *, member: MemberRoles):
    """Tells you a member's roles."""
    await ctx.send('I see the following roles: ' + ', '.join(member))

Special Converters

The command extension also has support for certain converters to allow for more advanced and intricate use cases that go beyond the generic linear parsing. These converters allow you to introduce some more relaxed and dynamic grammar to your commands in an easy to use manner.

typing.Union

A typing.Union is a special type hint that allows for the command to take in any of the specific types instead of a singular type. For example, given the following:

import typing

@bot.command()
async def union(ctx, what: typing.Union[disnake.TextChannel, disnake.Member]):
    await ctx.send(what)

The what parameter would either take a disnake.TextChannel converter or a disnake.Member converter. The way this works is through a left-to-right order. It first attempts to convert the input to a disnake.TextChannel, and if it fails it tries to convert it to a disnake.Member. If all converters fail, then a special error is raised, BadUnionArgument.

Note that any valid converter discussed above can be passed in to the argument list of a typing.Union.

typing.Optional

A typing.Optional is a special type hint that allows for “back-referencing” behaviour. If the converter fails to parse into the specified type, the parser will skip the parameter and then either None or the specified default will be passed into the parameter instead. The parser will then continue on to the next parameters and converters, if any.

Consider the following example:

import typing

@bot.command()
async def bottles(ctx, amount: typing.Optional[int] = 99, *, liquid="beer"):
    await ctx.send(f'{amount} bottles of {liquid} on the wall!')

In this example, since the argument could not be converted into an int, the default of 99 is passed and the parser resumes handling, which in this case would be to pass it into the liquid parameter.

Note

This converter only works in regular positional parameters, not variable parameters or keyword-only parameters.

typing.Literal

A typing.Literal is a special type hint that requires the passed parameter to be equal to one of the listed values after being converted to the same type. For example, given the following:

from typing import Literal

@bot.command()
async def shop(ctx, buy_sell: Literal['buy', 'sell'], amount: Literal[1, 2], *, item: str):
    await ctx.send(f'{buy_sell.capitalize()}ing {amount} {item}(s)!')

The buy_sell parameter must be either the literal string "buy" or "sell" and amount must convert to the int 1 or 2. If buy_sell or amount don’t match any value, then a special error is raised, BadLiteralArgument. Any literal values can be mixed and matched within the same typing.Literal converter.

Note that typing.Literal[True] and typing.Literal[False] still follow the bool converter rules.

Greedy

The Greedy converter is a generalisation of the typing.Optional converter, except applied to a list of arguments. In simple terms, this means that it tries to convert as much as it can until it can’t convert any further.

Consider the following example:

@bot.command()
async def slap(ctx, members: commands.Greedy[disnake.Member], *, reason='no reason'):
    slapped = ", ".join(x.name for x in members)
    await ctx.send(f'{slapped} just got slapped for {reason}')

When invoked, it allows for any number of members to be passed in:

The type passed when using this converter depends on the parameter type that it is being attached to:

• Positional parameter types will receive either the default parameter or a list of the converted values.

• Variable parameter types will be a tuple as usual.

• Keyword-only parameter types will be the same as if Greedy was not passed at all.

Greedy parameters can also be made optional by specifying an optional value.

When mixed with the typing.Optional converter you can provide simple and expressive command invocation syntaxes:

from datetime import timedelta
from typing import Optional

@bot.command()
async def ban(ctx, members: commands.Greedy[disnake.Member],
                   delete_days: Optional[int] = 0, *,
                   reason: str):
    """Mass bans members with an optional delete_days parameter"""
    for member in members:
        await member.ban(clean_history_duration=timedelta(days=delete_days), reason=reason)

This command can be invoked any of the following ways:

$ban @Member @Member2 spam bot
$ban @Member @Member2 7 spam bot
$ban @Member spam

Warning

The usage of Greedy and typing.Optional are powerful and useful, however as a price, they open you up to some parsing ambiguities that might surprise some people.

For example, a signature expecting a typing.Optional of a disnake.Member followed by a int could catch a member named after a number due to the different ways a MemberConverter decides to fetch members. You should take care to not introduce unintended parsing ambiguities in your code. One technique would be to clamp down the expected syntaxes allowed through custom converters or reordering the parameters to minimise clashes.

To help aid with some parsing ambiguities, str, None, typing.Optional and Greedy are forbidden as parameters for the Greedy converter.

FlagConverter

New in version 2.0.

A FlagConverter allows the user to specify user-friendly “flags” using PEP 526 type annotations or a syntax more reminiscent of the dataclasses module.

For example, the following code:

from disnake.ext import commands
import disnake

class BanFlags(commands.FlagConverter):
    member: disnake.Member
    reason: str
    days: int = 1

@commands.command()
async def ban(ctx, *, flags: BanFlags):
    plural = f'{flags.days} days' if flags.days != 1 else f'{flags.days} day'
    await ctx.send(f'Banned {flags.member} for {flags.reason!r} (deleted {plural} worth of messages)')

Allows the user to invoke the command using a simple flag-like syntax:

Flags use a syntax that allows the user to not require quotes when passing in values to the flag. The goal of the flag syntax is to be as user-friendly as possible. This makes flags a good choice for complicated commands that can have multiple knobs to turn or simulating keyword-only parameters in your external command interface. It is recommended to use keyword-only parameters with the flag converter. This ensures proper parsing and behaviour with quoting.

Internally, the FlagConverter class examines the class to find flags. A flag can either be a class variable with a type annotation or a class variable that’s been assigned the result of the flag() function. These flags are then used to define the interface that your users will use. The annotations correspond to the converters that the flag arguments must adhere to.

For most use cases, no extra work is required to define flags. However, if customisation is needed to control the flag name or the default value then the flag() function can come in handy:

from typing import List

class BanFlags(commands.FlagConverter):
    members: List[disnake.Member] = commands.flag(name='member', default=lambda ctx: [])

This tells the parser that the members attribute is mapped to a flag named member and that the default value is an empty list. For greater customisability, the default can either be a value or a callable that takes the Context as a sole parameter. This callable can either be a function or a coroutine.

In order to customise the flag syntax we also have a few options that can be passed to the class parameter list:

# --hello world syntax
class PosixLikeFlags(commands.FlagConverter, delimiter=' ', prefix='--'):
    hello: str


# /make food
class WindowsLikeFlags(commands.FlagConverter, prefix='/', delimiter=''):
    make: str

# TOPIC: not allowed nsfw: yes Slowmode: 100
class Settings(commands.FlagConverter, case_insensitive=True):
    topic: Optional[str]
    nsfw: Optional[bool]
    slowmode: Optional[int]

Note

Despite the similarities in these examples to command like arguments, the syntax and parser is not a command line parser. The syntax is mainly inspired by Discord’s search bar input and as a result all flags need a corresponding value.

The flag converter is similar to regular commands and allows you to use most types of converters (with the exception of Greedy) as the type annotation. Some extra support is added for specific annotations as described below.

typing.List

If a list is given as a flag annotation it tells the parser that the argument can be passed multiple times.

For example, augmenting the example above:

from datetime import timedelta
from typing import List

class BanFlags(commands.FlagConverter):
    members: List[disnake.Member] = commands.flag(name='member')
    reason: str
    days: int = 1

@bot.command()
async def ban(ctx, *, flags: BanFlags):
    for member in flags.members:
        await member.ban(reason=flags.reason, clean_history_duration=timedelta(days=flags.days))

    members = ', '.join(str(member) for member in flags.members)
    plural = f'{flags.days} days' if flags.days != 1 else f'{flags.days} day'
    await ctx.send(f'Banned {members} for {flags.reason!r} (deleted {plural} worth of messages)')

This is called by repeatedly specifying the flag:

typing.Tuple

Since the above syntax can be a bit repetitive when specifying a flag many times, the tuple type annotation allows for “greedy-like” semantics using a variadic tuple:

from disnake.ext import commands
from typing import Tuple
import disnake

class BanFlags(commands.FlagConverter):
    members: Tuple[disnake.Member, ...]
    reason: str
    days: int = 1

This allows the previous ban command to be called like this:

The tuple annotation also allows for parsing of pairs. For example, given the following code:

# point: 10 11 point: 12 13
class Coordinates(commands.FlagConverter):
    point: Tuple[int, int]

Warning

Due to potential parsing ambiguities, the parser expects tuple arguments to be quoted if they require spaces. So if one of the inner types is str and the argument requires spaces then quotes should be used to disambiguate it from the other element of the tuple.

typing.Dict

A dict annotation is functionally equivalent to List[Tuple[K, V]] except with the return type given as a dict rather than a list.

Error Handling

When our commands fail to parse we will, by default, receive a noisy error in stderr of our console that tells us that an error has happened and has been silently ignored.

In order to handle our errors, we must use something called an error handler. There is a global error handler, called on_command_error() which works like any other event in the Event Reference. This global error handler is called for every error reached.

Most of the time however, we want to handle an error local to the command itself. Luckily, commands come with local error handlers that allow us to do just that. First we decorate an error handler function with Command.error():

@bot.command()
async def info(ctx, *, member: disnake.Member):
    """Tells you some info about the member."""
    msg = f'{member} joined on {member.joined_at} and has {len(member.roles)} roles.'
    await ctx.send(msg)

@info.error
async def info_error(ctx, error):
    if isinstance(error, commands.BadArgument):
        await ctx.send('I could not find that member...')

The first parameter of the error handler is the Context while the second one is an exception that is derived from CommandError. A list of errors is found in the Exceptions page of the documentation.

Checks

There are cases when we don’t want a user to use our commands. They don’t have permissions to do so or maybe we blocked them from using our bot earlier. The commands extension comes with full support for these things in a concept called a Checks.

A check is a basic predicate that can take in a Context as its sole parameter. Within it, you have the following options:

• Return True to signal that the person can run the command.

• Return False to signal that the person cannot run the command.

• Raise a CommandError derived exception to signal the person cannot run the command.

  • This allows you to have custom error messages for you to handle in the error handlers.

To register a check for a command, we would have two ways of doing so. The first is using the check() decorator. For example:

async def is_owner(ctx):
    return ctx.author.id == 316026178463072268

@bot.command(name='eval')
@commands.check(is_owner)
async def _eval(ctx, *, code):
    """A bad example of an eval command"""
    await ctx.send(eval(code))

This would only evaluate the command if the function is_owner returns True. Sometimes we re-use a check often and want to split it into its own decorator. To do that we can just add another level of depth:

def is_owner():
    async def predicate(ctx):
        return ctx.author.id == 316026178463072268
    return commands.check(predicate)

@bot.command(name='eval')
@is_owner()
async def _eval(ctx, *, code):
    """A bad example of an eval command"""
    await ctx.send(eval(code))

Since an owner check is so common, the library provides it for you (is_owner()):

@bot.command(name='eval')
@commands.is_owner()
async def _eval(ctx, *, code):
    """A bad example of an eval command"""
    await ctx.send(eval(code))

When multiple checks are specified, all of them must be True:

def is_in_guild(guild_id):
    async def predicate(ctx):
        return ctx.guild and ctx.guild.id == guild_id
    return commands.check(predicate)

@bot.command()
@commands.is_owner()
@is_in_guild(41771983423143937)
async def secretguilddata(ctx):
    """super secret stuff"""
    await ctx.send('secret stuff')

If any of those checks fail in the example above, then the command will not be run.

When an error happens, the error is propagated to the error handlers. If you do not raise a custom CommandError derived exception, then it will get wrapped up into a CheckFailure exception as so:

@bot.command()
@commands.is_owner()
@is_in_guild(41771983423143937)
async def secretguilddata(ctx):
    """super secret stuff"""
    await ctx.send('secret stuff')

@secretguilddata.error
async def secretguilddata_error(ctx, error):
    if isinstance(error, commands.CheckFailure):
        await ctx.send('nothing to see here comrade.')

If you want a more robust error system, you can derive from the exception and raise it instead of returning False:

class NoPrivateMessages(commands.CheckFailure):
    pass

def guild_only():
    async def predicate(ctx):
        if ctx.guild is None:
            raise NoPrivateMessages('Hey no DMs!')
        return True
    return commands.check(predicate)

@guild_only()
async def test(ctx):
    await ctx.send('Hey this is not a DM! Nice.')

@test.error
async def test_error(ctx, error):
    if isinstance(error, NoPrivateMessages):
        await ctx.send(error)

Note

Since having a guild_only decorator is pretty common, it comes built-in via guild_only().

Global Checks

Sometimes we want to apply a check to every command, not just certain commands. The library supports this as well using the global check concept.

Global checks work similarly to regular checks except they are registered with the Bot.check() decorator.

For example, to block all DMs we could do the following:

@bot.check
async def globally_block_dms(ctx):
    return ctx.guild is not None

Warning

Be careful on how you write your global checks, as it could also lock you out of your own bot.

Slash Commands

Slash commands can significantly simplify the user’s experience with your bot. Once “/” is pressed on the keyboard, the list of slash commands appears. You can fill the options and read the hints at the same time, while types are validated instantly. This library allows to make such commands in several minutes, regardless of their complexity.

Getting started

You have probably noticed that slash commands have really interactive user interface, as if each slash command was built-in. This is because each slash command is registered in Discord before people can see it. This library handles registration for you, but you can still manage it.

By default, the registration is global. This means that your slash commands will be visible everywhere, including bot DMs, though you can disable them in DMs by setting the appropriate permissions. You can also change the registration to be local, so your slash commands will only be visible in several guilds.

This code sample shows how to set the registration to be local:

from disnake.ext import commands

bot = commands.Bot(
    command_prefix='!',
    test_guilds=[123456789],
    # In the list above you can specify the IDs of your test guilds.
    # Why is this kwarg called test_guilds? This is because you're not meant to use
    # local registration in production, since you may exceed the rate limits.
)

For global registration, don’t specify this parameter.

Another useful parameter is sync_commands_debug. If set to True, you receive debug messages related to the app command registration by default, without having to change the log level of any loggers (see Bot.sync_commands_debug for more info). This is useful if you want to figure out some registration details:

from disnake.ext import commands

bot = commands.Bot(
    command_prefix='!',
    test_guilds=[123456789], # Optional
    sync_commands_debug=True
)

If you want to disable the automatic registration, set sync_commands to False:

from disnake.ext import commands

bot = commands.Bot(
    command_prefix='!',
    sync_commands=False
)

Basic Slash Command

Make sure that you’ve read Getting started, it contains important information about command registration.

Here’s an example of a slash command:

@bot.slash_command(description="Responds with 'World'")
async def hello(inter):
    await inter.response.send_message("World")

A slash command must always have at least one parameter, inter, which is the ApplicationCommandInteraction as the first one.

I can’t see my slash command, what do I do? Read Getting started.

Parameters

You may want to define a couple of options for your slash command. In disnake, the definition of options is based on annotations.

Here’s an example of a command with one integer option (without a description):

@bot.slash_command(description="Multiplies the number by 7")
async def multiply(inter, number: int):
    await inter.response.send_message(number * 7)

The result should look like this:

You can of course set a default for your option by giving a default value:

@bot.slash_command(description="Multiplies the number by a multiplier")
async def multiply(inter, number: int, multiplier: int = 7):
    await inter.response.send_message(number * multiplier)

You may have as many options as you want but the order matters, an optional option cannot be followed by a required one.

Option Types

You might already be familiar with discord.py’s converters, slash commands have a very similar equivalent in the form of option types. Discord itself supports only a few built-in types which are guaranteed to be enforced:

• str

• int

• float

• bool

• disnake.abc.GuildChannel*

• disnake.User or disnake.Member**

• disnake.Role**

• disnake.Attachment

• disnake.abc.Snowflake***

All the other types may be converted implicitly, similarly to Basic Converters

@bot.slash_command()
async def multiply(
    interaction,
    string: str,
    integer: int,
    number: float,
    user: disnake.User,
    emoji: disnake.Emoji,
    message: disnake.Message
):
    ...

Note

* All channel subclasses and unions (e.g. Union[TextChannel, StageChannel]) are also supported. See ParamInfo.channel_types for more fine-grained control.

** Some combinations of types are also allowed, including:

• Union[User, Member] (results in OptionType.user)

• Union[Member, Role] (results in OptionType.mentionable)

• Union[User, Role] (results in OptionType.mentionable)

• Union[User, Member, Role] (results in OptionType.mentionable)

Note that a User annotation can also result in a Member being received.

*** Corresponds to any mentionable type, currently equivalent to Union[User, Member, Role].

Number Ranges

int and float parameters support minimum and maximum allowed values using the lt, le, gt, ge parameters on Param. For instance, you could restrict an option to only accept positive integers:

@bot.slash_command()
async def command(
    inter: disnake.ApplicationCommandInteraction,
    amount: int = commands.Param(gt=0),
):
    ...

Instead of using Param, you can also use a Range annotation. The range bounds are both inclusive; using ... as a bound indicates that this end of the range is unbounded. The type of the option is determined by the range bounds, with the option being a float if at least one of the bounds is a float, and int otherwise.

@bot.slash_command()
async def ranges(
    inter: disnake.ApplicationCommandInteraction,
    a: commands.Range[0, 10],       # 0 - 10 int
    b: commands.Range[0, 10.0],     # 0 - 10 float
    c: commands.Range[1, ...],      # positive int
):
    ...

Note

Type checker support for Range and String (see below) is limited. Pylance/Pyright seem to handle it correctly; MyPy currently needs a plugin for it to understand Range and String semantics, which can be added in the configuration file (setup.cfg, mypy.ini):

[mypy]
plugins = disnake.ext.mypy_plugin

For pyproject.toml configs, use this instead:

[tool.mypy]
plugins = "disnake.ext.mypy_plugin"

String Lengths

str parameters support minimum and maximum allowed value lengths using the min_length and max_length parameters on Param. For instance, you could restrict an option to only accept a single character:

@bot.slash_command()
async def charinfo(
    inter: disnake.ApplicationCommandInteraction,
    character: str = commands.Param(max_length=1),
):
    ...

Or restrict a tag command to limit tag names to 20 characters:

@bot.slash_command()
async def tags(
    inter: disnake.ApplicationCommandInteraction,
    tag: str = commands.Param(max_length=20)
):
    ...

Instead of using Param, you can also use a String annotation. The length bounds are both inclusive; using ... as a bound indicates that this end of the string length is unbounded.

@bot.slash_command()
async def strings(
    inter: disnake.ApplicationCommandInteraction,
    a: commands.String[0, 10],       # a str no longer than 10 characters.
    b: commands.String[10, 100],     # a str that's at least 10 characters but not longer than 100.
    c: commands.String[50, ...]      # a str that's at least 50 characters.
):
    ...

Note

There is a max length of 6000 characters, which is enforced by Discord.

Note

For mypy type checking support, please see the above note about the mypy plugin.

Docstrings

If you have a feeling that option descriptions make the parameters of your function look overloaded, use docstrings. This feature allows to describe your command and options in triple quotes inside the function, following the RST markdown.

In order to describe the parameters, list them under the Parameters header, underlined with dashes:

@bot.slash_command()
async def give_cookies(
    inter: disnake.ApplicationCommandInteraction,
    user: disnake.User,
    amount: int = 1
):
    """
    Give several cookies to a user

    Parameters
    ----------
    user: The user to give cookies to
    amount: The amount of cookies to give
    """
    ...

Note

In the above example we’re using a simplified RST markdown.

If you prefer the real RST format, you can still use it:

@bot.slash_command()
async def give_cookies(
    inter: disnake.ApplicationCommandInteraction,
    user: disnake.User,
    amount: int = 1
):
    """
    Give several cookies to a user

    Parameters
    ----------
    user: :class:`disnake.User`
        The user to give cookies to
    amount: :class:`int`
        The amount of cookies to give
    """
    ...

Parameter Descriptors

Python has no truly clean way to provide metadata for parameters, so disnake uses the same approach as fastapi using parameter defaults. At the current time there’s only Param.

With this you may set the name, description, custom converters, Autocompleters, and more.

@bot.slash_command()
async def math(
    interaction: disnake.ApplicationCommandInteraction,
    a: int = commands.Param(le=10),
    b: int = commands.Param(le=10),
    op: str = commands.Param(name="operator", choices=["+", "-", "/", "*"])
):
    """
    Perform an operation on two numbers as long as both of them are less than or equal to 10
    """
    ...

@bot.slash_command()
async def multiply(
    interaction: disnake.ApplicationCommandInteraction,
    clean: str = commands.Param(converter=lambda inter, arg: arg.replace("@", "\\@")
):
    ...

Note

The converter parameter only ever takes in a function, not a Converter class. Converter classes are completely unusable in disnake due to their inconsistent typing.

Choices

Some options can have a list of choices, so the user doesn’t have to manually fill the value. The most elegant way of defining the choices is by using enums. These enums must inherit from the type of their value if you want them to work with linters.

For example:

from enum import Enum

class Animal(str, Enum):
    Dog = 'dog'
    Cat = 'cat'
    Penguin = 'peng'

@bot.slash_command()
async def blep(inter: disnake.ApplicationCommandInteraction, animal: Animal):
    await inter.response.send_message(animal)

Note

The animal arg will receive one of the enum values.

You can define an enum in one line:

Animal = commands.option_enum({"Dog": "dog", "Cat": "cat", "Penguin": "penguin"})

@bot.slash_command()
async def blep(inter: disnake.ApplicationCommandInteraction, animal: Animal):
    await inter.response.send_message(animal)

Or even forget about values and define the enum from list:

Animal = commands.option_enum(["Dog", "Cat", "Penguin"])

@bot.slash_command()
async def blep(inter: disnake.ApplicationCommandInteraction, animal: Animal):
    await inter.response.send_message(animal)

Or you can simply list the choices in commands.Param:

@bot.slash_command()
async def blep(
    inter: disnake.ApplicationCommandInteraction,
    animal: str = commands.Param(choices={"Dog": "dog", "Cat": "cat", "Penguin": "penguin"})
):
    await inter.response.send_message(animal)

# Or define the choices in a list

@bot.slash_command()
async def blep(
    inter: disnake.ApplicationCommandInteraction,
    animal: str = commands.Param(choices=["Dog", "Cat", "Penguin"])
):
    await inter.response.send_message(animal)

Autocompleters

Slash commands support interactive autocompletion. You can define a function that will constantly suggest autocomplete options while the user is typing. So basically autocompletion is roughly equivalent to dynamic choices.

In order to build an option with autocompletion, define a function that takes 2 parameters - ApplicationCommandInteraction instance, representing an autocomp interaction with your command, and a str instance, representing the current user input. The function should return a list of strings or a mapping of choice names to values.

For example:

LANGUAGES = ["python", "javascript", "typescript", "java", "rust", "lisp", "elixir"]

async def autocomp_langs(inter: disnake.ApplicationCommandInteraction, user_input: str):
    return [lang for lang in LANGUAGES if user_input.lower() in lang]

@bot.slash_command()
async def example(
    inter: disnake.ApplicationCommandInteraction,
    language: str = commands.Param(autocomplete=autocomp_langs)
):
    ...

In case you need don’t want to use Param or need to use self in a cog you may create autocomplete options with the autocomplete decorator:

@bot.slash_command()
async def languages(inter: disnake.ApplicationCommandInteraction, language: str):
    pass


@languages.autocomplete("language")
async def language_autocomp(inter: disnake.ApplicationCommandInteraction, string: str):
    string = string.lower()
    return [lang for lang in LANGUAGES if string in lang.lower()]
    ...

Subcommands And Groups

Groups of commands work differently in terms of slash commands. Instead of defining a group, you should still define a slash command and then nest some sub-commands or sub-command-groups there via special decorators.

For example, here’s how you make a /show user command:

@bot.slash_command()
async def show(inter):
    # Here you can paste some code, it will run for every invoked sub-command.
    pass

@show.sub_command()
async def user(inter, user: disnake.User):
    """
    Description of the subcommand

    Parameters
    ----------
    user: Enter the user to inspect
    """
    ...

Note

After being registered this command will be visible as /show user in the list, not allowing you to invoke /show without any sub-commands. This is an API limitation.

You can implement double nesting and build commands like /parent group subcmd:

@bot.slash_command()
async def parent(inter):
    pass

@parent.sub_command_group()
async def group(inter):
    pass

@group.sub_command()
async def subcmd(inter):
    # Some stuff
    pass

Note

This is the deepest nesting available.

Injections

We have them, look at this example for more information ✨

Localizations

The names and descriptions of commands and options, as well as the names of choices (for use with fixed choices or autocompletion), support localization for a fixed set of locales.

For currently supported locales, see Locale.

Note

You can supply your own custom localization provider by implementing LocalizationProtocol and using the client’s/bot’s localization_provider parameter. The .json handling mentioned in this section, as well as the Strict Localization section below only apply to the default implementation, LocalizationStore.

The preferred way of adding localizations is to use <locale>.json files, containing mappings from user-defined keys to localized/translated strings, and referencing these keys in the commands’ docstrings. As an example, consider this command:

@bot.slash_command()
async def add_5(inter: disnake.ApplicationCommandInteraction, num: int):
    """
    Adds 5 to a number. {{ADD_NUM}}

    Parameters
    ----------
    num: Some number {{ COOL_NUMBER }}
    """
    await inter.response.send_message(f"{num} + 5 = {num + 5}")

The keys {{XYZ}} are automatically extracted from the docstrings, and used for looking up names XYZ_NAME and descriptions XYZ_DESCRIPTION. Note that whitespace is ignored, and the positioning inside the line doesn’t matter.

For instance, to add German localizations, create a locale/de.json file; the directory name/path can be changed arbitrarily, locale is just the one used here:

{
    "ADD_NUM_NAME": "addiere_5",
    "ADD_NUM_DESCRIPTION": "Addiere 5 zu einer anderen Zahl.",
    "COOL_NUMBER_NAME": "zahl",
    "COOL_NUMBER_DESCRIPTION": "Eine Zahl"
}

To load a directory or file containing localizations, use bot.i18n.load(path):

...
bot.i18n.load("locale/")  # loads all files in the "locale/" directory
bot.run(...)

Note

If Bot.reload is True, all currently loaded localization files are reloaded when an extension gets automatically reloaded.

Strict Localization

By default, missing keys that couldn’t be found are silently ignored. To instead raise an exception when a key is missing, pass the strict_localization=True parameter to the client/bot constructor (see Bot.strict_localization).

Customization

If you want more customization or low-level control over localizations, you can specify arbitrary keys for the commands/options directly. Localized takes the non-localized string (optional depending on target type) to keep the ability of e.g. overwriting name in the command decorator, and either a key or data parameter.

This would create the same command as the code above, though you’re free to change the keys like ADD_NUM_DESCRIPTION however you want:

@bot.slash_command(name=Localized("add_5", key="ADD_NUM_NAME"), description=Localized(key="ADD_NUM_DESCRIPTION"))
async def _add_5_slash(
    inter: disnake.ApplicationCommandInteraction,
    num: int = commands.Param(
        name=Localized(key="COOL_NUMBER_NAME"),
        description=Localized(key="COOL_NUMBER_DESCRIPTION")
    ),
):
    """
    Adds 5 to a number.

    Parameters
    ----------
    num: Some number
    """
    await inter.response.send_message(f"{num} + 5 = {num + 5}")

While not recommended, it is also possible to avoid using .json files at all, and instead specify localizations directly in the code:

@bot.slash_command(
    name=Localized(data={Locale.de: "addiere_5"}),
    description=Localized(data={Locale.de: "Addiere 5 zu einer anderen Zahl."}),
)
async def add_5(
    inter: disnake.ApplicationCommandInteraction,
    num: int = commands.Param(
        name=Localized(data={Locale.de: "zahl"}),
        description=Localized(data={Locale.de: "Eine Zahl"}),
    ),
):
    ...

Choices/Autocomplete

Option choices and autocomplete items can also be localized, through the use of OptionChoice:

@bot.slash_command()
async def example(
    inter: disnake.ApplicationCommandInteraction,
    animal: str = commands.Param(choices=[
        # alternatively:
        # OptionChoice(Localized("Cat", key="OPTION_CAT"), "Cat")
        Localized("Cat", key="OPTION_CAT"),
        Localized("Dolphin", key="OPTION_DOLPHIN"),
    ]),
    language: str = commands.Param(autocomplete=autocomp_langs),
):
    ...

@example.autocomplete("language")
async def language_autocomp(inter: disnake.ApplicationCommandInteraction, user_input: str):
    languages = ("english", "german", "spanish", "japanese")
    return [
        # alternatively:
        # `OptionChoice(Localized(lang, key=f"AUTOCOMP_{lang.upper()}"), lang)`
        Localized(lang, key=f"AUTOCOMP_{lang.upper()}")
        for lang in languages
        if user_input.lower() in lang
    ]

Yet again, with a file like locale/de.json containing localizations like this:

{
    "OPTION_CAT": "Katze",
    "OPTION_DOLPHIN": "Delfin",
    "AUTOCOMP_ENGLISH": "Englisch",
    "AUTOCOMP_GERMAN": "Deutsch",
    "AUTOCOMP_SPANISH": "Spanisch",
    "AUTOCOMP_JAPANESE": "Japanisch"
}

Permissions

Default Member Permissions

These commands will not be enabled/visible for members who do not have all the required guild permissions. In this example both the manage_guild and the moderate_members permissions would be required:

@bot.slash_command()
@commands.default_member_permissions(manage_guild=True, moderate_members=True)
async def command(inter: disnake.ApplicationCommandInteraction):
    ...

Or use the default_member_permissions parameter in the application command decorator:

@bot.slash_command(default_member_permissions=disnake.Permissions(manage_guild=True, moderate_members=True))
async def command(inter: disnake.ApplicationCommandInteraction):
    ...

This can be overridden by moderators on a per-guild basis; default_member_permissions may be ignored entirely once a permission override — application-wide or for this command in particular — is configured in the guild settings, and will be restored if the permissions are re-synced in the settings.

Note that default_member_permissions and dm_permission cannot be configured for a slash subcommand or subcommand group, only in top-level slash commands and user/message commands.

DM Permissions

Using this, you can specify if you want a certain slash command to work in DMs or not:

@bot.slash_command(dm_permission=False)
async def config(inter: disnake.ApplicationCommandInteraction):
    ...

This will make the config slash command invisible in DMs, while it will remain visible in guilds.

Cogs

There comes a point in your bot’s development when you want to organize a collection of commands, listeners, and some state into one class. Cogs allow you to do just that.

The gist:

• Each cog is a Python class that subclasses commands.Cog.

• Every command is marked with the commands.command() decorator.

• Every slash command is marked with the commands.slash_command() decorator.

• Every user command is marked with the commands.user_command() decorator.

• Every message command is marked with the commands.message_command() decorator.

• Every listener is marked with the commands.Cog.listener() decorator.

• Cogs are then registered with the Bot.add_cog() call.

• Cogs are subsequently removed with the Bot.remove_cog() call.

It should be noted that cogs are typically used alongside with Extensions.

Quick Example

This example cog defines a Greetings category for your commands, with a single command named hello as well as a listener to listen to an Event.

class Greetings(commands.Cog):
    def __init__(self, bot):
        self.bot = bot
        self._last_member = None

    @commands.Cog.listener()
    async def on_member_join(self, member):
        channel = member.guild.system_channel
        if channel is not None:
            await channel.send(f'Welcome {member.mention}.')

    @commands.command()
    async def hello(self, ctx, *, member: disnake.Member = None):
        """Says hello"""
        member = member or ctx.author
        if self._last_member is None or self._last_member.id != member.id:
            await ctx.send(f'Hello {member.name}~')
        else:
            await ctx.send(f'Hello {member.name}... This feels familiar.')
        self._last_member = member

A couple of technical notes to take into consideration:

• All listeners must be explicitly marked via decorator, listener().

• The name of the cog is automatically derived from the class name but can be overridden. See Meta Options.

• All commands must now take a self parameter to allow usage of instance attributes that can be used to maintain state.

Cog Registration

Once you have defined your cogs, you need to tell the bot to register the cogs to be used. We do this via the add_cog() method.

bot.add_cog(Greetings(bot))

This binds the cog to the bot, adding all commands and listeners to the bot automatically.

Note that we reference the cog by name, which we can override through Meta Options. So if we ever want to remove the cog eventually, we would have to do the following.

bot.remove_cog('Greetings')

Using Cogs

Just as we remove a cog by its name, we can also retrieve it by its name as well. This allows us to use a cog as an inter-command communication protocol to share data. For example:

class Economy(commands.Cog):
    ...

    async def withdraw_money(self, member, money):
        # implementation here
        ...

    async def deposit_money(self, member, money):
        # implementation here
        ...

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

    def coinflip(self):
        return random.randint(0, 1)

    @commands.command()
    async def gamble(self, ctx, money: int):
        """Gambles some money."""
        economy = self.bot.get_cog('Economy')
        if economy is not None:
            await economy.withdraw_money(ctx.author, money)
            if self.coinflip() == 1:
                await economy.deposit_money(ctx.author, money * 1.5)

Special Methods

As cogs get more complicated and have more commands, there comes a point where we want to customise the behaviour of the entire cog or bot.

They are as follows:

• Cog.cog_unload()

• Cog.cog_check()

• Cog.cog_command_error()

• Cog.cog_before_invoke()

• Cog.cog_after_invoke()

• Cog.bot_check()

• Cog.bot_check_once()

• Cog.cog_slash_command_check()

• Cog.cog_slash_command_error()

• Cog.cog_before_slash_command_invoke()

• Cog.cog_after_slash_command_invoke()

• Cog.bot_slash_command_check()

• Cog.bot_slash_command_check_once()

• Cog.cog_user_command_check()

• Cog.cog_user_command_error()

• Cog.cog_before_user_command_invoke()

• Cog.cog_after_user_command_invoke()

• Cog.bot_user_command_check()

• Cog.bot_user_command_check_once()

• Cog.cog_message_command_check()

• Cog.cog_message_command_error()

• Cog.cog_before_message_command_invoke()

• Cog.cog_after_message_command_invoke()

• Cog.bot_message_command_check()

• Cog.bot_message_command_check_once()

You can visit the reference to get more detail.

Meta Options

At the heart of a cog resides a metaclass, commands.CogMeta, which can take various options to customise some of the behaviour. To do this, we pass keyword arguments to the class definition line. For example, to change the cog name we can pass the name keyword argument as follows:

class MyCog(commands.Cog, name='My Cog'):
    pass

To see more options that you can set, see the documentation of commands.CogMeta.

Inspection

Since cogs ultimately are classes, we have some tools to help us inspect certain properties of the cog.

To get a list of commands, we can use Cog.get_commands().

>>> cog = bot.get_cog('Greetings')
>>> commands = cog.get_commands()
>>> print([c.name for c in commands])

If we want to get the subcommands as well, we can use the Cog.walk_commands() generator.

>>> print([c.qualified_name for c in cog.walk_commands()])

To do the same with listeners, we can query them with Cog.get_listeners(). This returns a list of tuples – the first element being the listener name and the second one being the actual function itself.

>>> for name, func in cog.get_listeners():
...     print(name, '->', func)

Extensions

There comes a time in the bot development when you want to extend the bot functionality at run-time and quickly unload and reload code (also called hot-reloading). The command framework comes with this ability built-in, with a concept called extensions.

Primer

An extension at its core is a python file with an entry point called setup. This setup must be a plain Python function (not a coroutine). It takes a single parameter – the Bot that loads the extension.

An example extension looks like this:

hello.py

from disnake.ext import commands

@commands.command()
async def hello(ctx):
    await ctx.send(f'Hello {ctx.author.display_name}.')

def setup(bot):
    bot.add_command(hello)

In this example we define a simple command, and when the extension is loaded this command is added to the bot. Now the final step to this is loading the extension, which we do by calling Bot.load_extension(). To load this extension we call bot.load_extension('hello').

Cogs

Extensions are usually used in conjunction with cogs. To read more about them, check out the documentation, Cogs.

Note

Extension paths are ultimately similar to the import mechanism. What this means is that if there is a folder, then it must be dot-qualified. For example to load an extension in plugins/hello.py then we use the string plugins.hello.

Reloading

When you make a change to the extension and want to reload the references, the library comes with a function to do this for you, Bot.reload_extension().

>>> bot.reload_extension('hello')

Once the extension reloads, any changes that we did will be applied. This is useful if we want to add or remove functionality without restarting our bot. If an error occurred during the reloading process, the bot will pretend as if the reload never happened.

Cleaning Up

Although rare, sometimes an extension needs to clean-up or know when it’s being unloaded. For cases like these, there is another entry point named teardown which is similar to setup except called when the extension is unloaded.

basic_ext.py

def setup(bot):
    print('I am being loaded!')

def teardown(bot):
    print('I am being unloaded!')

class disnake.ext.commands.Bot(command_prefix=None, help_command=<default-help-command>, description=None, *, strip_after_prefix=False, **options)

Represents a discord bot.

This class is a subclass of disnake.Client and as a result anything that you can do with a disnake.Client you can do with this bot.

This class also subclasses GroupMixin to provide the functionality to manage commands.

command_prefix

The command prefix is what the message content must contain initially to have a command invoked. This prefix could either be a string to indicate what the prefix should be, or a callable that takes in the bot as its first parameter and disnake.Message as its second parameter and returns the prefix. This is to facilitate “dynamic” command prefixes. This callable can be either a regular function or a coroutine.

An empty string as the prefix always matches, enabling prefix-less command invocation. While this may be useful in DMs it should be avoided in servers, as it’s likely to cause performance issues and unintended command invocations.

The command prefix could also be an iterable of strings indicating that multiple checks for the prefix should be used and the first one to match will be the invocation prefix. You can get this prefix via Context.prefix. To avoid confusion empty iterables are not allowed.

If the prefix is None, the bot won’t listen to any prefixes, and prefix commands will not be processed. If you don’t need prefix commands, consider using InteractionBot or AutoShardedInteractionBot instead, which are drop-in replacements, just without prefix command support.

Note

When passing multiple prefixes be careful to not pass a prefix that matches a longer prefix occurring later in the sequence. For example, if the command prefix is ('!', '!?') the '!?' prefix will never be matched to any message as the previous one matches messages starting with !?. This is especially important when passing an empty string, it should always be last as no prefix after it will be matched.

case_insensitive

Whether the commands should be case insensitive. Defaults to False. This attribute does not carry over to groups. You must set it to every group if you require group commands to be case insensitive as well.

Type:

bool

description

The content prefixed into the default help message.

Type:

str

help_command

The help command implementation to use. This can be dynamically set at runtime. To remove the help command pass None. For more information on implementing a help command, see Help Commands.

Type:

Optional[HelpCommand]

owner_id

The user ID that owns the bot. If this is not set and is then queried via is_owner() then it is fetched automatically using application_info().

Type:

Optional[int]

owner_ids

The user IDs that owns the bot. This is similar to owner_id. If this is not set and the application is team based, then it is fetched automatically using application_info(). For performance reasons it is recommended to use a set for the collection. You cannot set both owner_id and owner_ids.

New in version 1.3.

Type:

Optional[Collection[int]]

strip_after_prefix

Whether to strip whitespace characters after encountering the command prefix. This allows for !   hello and !hello to both work if the command_prefix is set to !. Defaults to False.

New in version 1.7.

Type:

bool

test_guilds

The list of IDs of the guilds where you’re going to test your application commands. Defaults to None, which means global registration of commands across all guilds.

New in version 2.1.

Type:

List[int]

sync_commands

Whether to enable automatic synchronization of application commands in your code. Defaults to True, which means that commands in API are automatically synced with the commands in your code.

New in version 2.1.

Type:

bool

sync_commands_on_cog_unload

Whether to sync the application commands on cog unload / reload. Defaults to True.

New in version 2.1.

Type:

bool

sync_commands_debug

Whether to always show sync debug logs (uses INFO log level if it’s enabled, prints otherwise). If disabled, uses the default DEBUG log level which isn’t shown unless the log level is changed manually. Useful for tracking the commands being registered in the API. Defaults to False.

New in version 2.1.

Changed in version 2.4: Changes the log level of corresponding messages from DEBUG to INFO or prints them, instead of controlling whether they are enabled at all.

Type:

bool

reload

Whether to enable automatic extension reloading on file modification for debugging. Whenever you save an extension with reloading enabled the file will be automatically reloaded for you so you do not have to reload the extension manually. Defaults to False

New in version 2.1.

Type:

bool

localization_provider

An implementation of LocalizationProtocol to use for localization of application commands. If not provided, the default LocalizationStore implementation is used.

New in version 2.5.

Type:

LocalizationProtocol

strict_localization

Whether to raise an exception when localizations for a specific key couldn’t be found. This is mainly useful for testing/debugging, consider disabling this eventually as missing localized names will automatically fall back to the default/base name without it. Only applicable if the localization_provider parameter is not provided. Defaults to False.

New in version 2.5.

Type:

bool

i18n

An implementation of LocalizationProtocol used for localization of application commands.

New in version 2.5.

Type:

LocalizationProtocol

@after_invoke

A decorator that registers a coroutine as a post-invoke hook.

This is for text commands only, and doesn’t apply to application commands.

A post-invoke hook is called directly after the command is called. This makes it a useful function to clean-up database connections or any type of clean up required.

This post-invoke hook takes a sole parameter, a Context.

Note

Similar to before_invoke(), this is not called unless checks and argument parsing procedures succeed. This hook is, however, always called regardless of the internal command callback raising an error (i.e. CommandInvokeError). This makes it ideal for clean-up scenarios.

Parameters:

coro (coroutine) – The coroutine to register as the post-invoke hook.

Raises:

TypeError – The coroutine passed is not actually a coroutine.

@after_slash_command_invoke

Similar to Bot.after_invoke() but for slash commands, and it takes an ApplicationCommandInteraction as its only parameter.

@after_user_command_invoke

Similar to Bot.after_slash_command_invoke() but for user commands.

@after_message_command_invoke

Similar to Bot.after_slash_command_invoke() but for message commands.

@before_invoke

A decorator that registers a coroutine as a pre-invoke hook.

This is for text commands only, and doesn’t apply to application commands.

A pre-invoke hook is called directly before the command is called. This makes it a useful function to set up database connections or any type of set up required.

This pre-invoke hook takes a sole parameter, a Context.

Note

The before_invoke() and after_invoke() hooks are only called if all checks and argument parsing procedures pass without error. If any check or argument parsing procedures fail then the hooks are not called.

Parameters:

coro (coroutine) – The coroutine to register as the pre-invoke hook.

Raises:

TypeError – The coroutine passed is not actually a coroutine.

@before_slash_command_invoke

Similar to Bot.before_invoke() but for slash commands, and it takes an ApplicationCommandInteraction as its only parameter.

@before_user_command_invoke

Similar to Bot.before_slash_command_invoke() but for user commands.

@before_message_command_invoke

Similar to Bot.before_slash_command_invoke() but for message commands.

@check

A decorator that adds a global check to the bot.

This is for text commands only, and doesn’t apply to application commands.

A global check is similar to a check() that is applied on a per command basis except it is run before any command checks have been verified and applies to every command the bot has.

Note

This function can either be a regular function or a coroutine.

Similar to a command check(), this takes a single parameter of type Context and can only raise exceptions inherited from CommandError.

Example

@bot.check
def check_commands(ctx):
    return ctx.command.qualified_name in allowed_commands

@check_once

A decorator that adds a “call once” global check to the bot.

This is for text commands only, and doesn’t apply to application commands.

Unlike regular global checks, this one is called only once per invoke() call.

Regular global checks are called whenever a command is called or Command.can_run() is called. This type of check bypasses that and ensures that it’s called only once, even inside the default help command.

Note

When using this function the Context sent to a group subcommand may only parse the parent command and not the subcommands due to it being invoked once per Bot.invoke() call.

Note

This function can either be a regular function or a coroutine.

Similar to a command check(), this takes a single parameter of type Context and can only raise exceptions inherited from CommandError.

Example

@bot.check_once
def whitelist(ctx):
    return ctx.message.author.id in my_whitelist

  New in version 2.6.

Raises:

• GatewayNotFound – If the gateway to connect to Discord is not found. Usually if this is thrown then there is a Discord API outage.

• ConnectionClosed – The websocket connection has been terminated.

• SessionStartLimitReached – If the client doesn’t have enough connects remaining in the current 24-hour window and ignore_session_start_limit is False this will be raised rather than connecting to the gateawy and Discord resetting the token. However, if ignore_session_start_limit is True, the client will connect regardless and this exception will not be raised.

By default, this coroutine is called inside the on_message() event. If you choose to override the on_message() event, then you should invoke this coroutine as well.

This is built using other low level tools, and is equivalent to a call to get_context() followed by a call to invoke().

This also checks if the message’s author is a bot and doesn’t call get_context() or invoke() if so.

Parameters:

message (disnake.Message) – The message to process commands for.

reload_extension(name, *, package=None)

Atomically reloads an extension.

This replaces the extension with the same extension, only refreshed. This is equivalent to a unload_extension() followed by a load_extension() except done in an atomic way. That is, if an operation fails mid-reload then the bot will roll-back to the prior working state.

Parameters:

• name (str) – The extension name to reload. It must be dot separated like regular Python imports if accessing a sub-module. e.g. foo.test if you want to import foo/test.py.

• package (Optional[str]) –

  The package name to resolve relative imports with. This is required when reloading an extension using a relative path, e.g .foo.test. Defaults to None.

  New in version 1.7.

Raises:

• ExtensionNotLoaded – The extension was not loaded.

• ExtensionNotFound – The extension could not be imported. This is also raised if the name of the extension could not be resolved using the provided package parameter.

• NoEntryPointError – The extension does not have a setup function.

• ExtensionFailed – The extension setup function had an execution error.

remove_app_command_check(func, *, call_once=False, slash_commands=False, user_commands=False, message_commands=False)

Removes a global application command check from the bot.

This function is idempotent and will not raise an exception if the function is not in the global checks.

You must specify at least one of the bool parameters, otherwise the check won’t be removed.

Parameters:

• func – The function to remove from the global checks.

• call_once (bool) – Whether the function was added with call_once=True in the Bot.add_check() call or using check_once().

• slash_commands (bool) – Whether this check was for slash commands.

• user_commands (bool) – Whether this check was for user commands.

• message_commands (bool) – Whether this check was for message commands.

remove_check(func, *, call_once=False)

Removes a global check from the bot.

This is for text commands only, and doesn’t apply to application commands.

This function is idempotent and will not raise an exception if the function is not in the global checks.

Parameters:

• func – The function to remove from the global checks.

• call_once (bool) – If the function was added with call_once=True in the Bot.add_check() call or using check_once().

remove_cog(name)

Removes a cog from the bot and returns it.

All registered commands and event listeners that the cog has registered will be removed as well.

If no cog is found then this method has no effect.

Parameters:

name (str) – The name of the cog to remove.

Returns:

The cog that was removed. Returns None if not found.

Return type:

Optional[Cog]

remove_command(name)

Remove a Command from the internal list of commands.

This could also be used as a way to remove aliases.

Parameters:

name (str) – The name of the command to remove.

Returns:

The command that was removed. If the name is not valid then None is returned instead.

Return type:

Optional[Command]

remove_listener(func, name=...)

Removes a listener from the pool of listeners.

Parameters:

• func – The function that was used as a listener to remove.

• name (str) – The name of the event we want to remove. Defaults to func.__name__.

remove_message_command(name)

Removes an InvokableMessageCommand from the internal list of message commands.

Parameters:

name (str) – The name of the message command to remove.

Returns:

The message command that was removed. If the name is not valid then None is returned instead.

Return type:

Optional[InvokableMessageCommand]

remove_slash_command(name)

Removes an InvokableSlashCommand from the internal list of slash commands.

Parameters:

name (str) – The name of the slash command to remove.

Returns:

The slash command that was removed. If the name is not valid then None is returned instead.

Return type:

Optional[InvokableSlashCommand]

remove_user_command(name)

Removes an InvokableUserCommand from the internal list of user commands.

Parameters:

name (str) – The name of the user command to remove.

Returns:

The user command that was removed. If the name is not valid then None is returned instead.

Return type:

Optional[InvokableUserCommand]

run(*args, **kwargs)

A blocking call that abstracts away the event loop initialisation from you.

If you want more control over the event loop then this function should not be used. Use start() coroutine or connect() + login().

Roughly Equivalent to:

try:
    loop.run_until_complete(start(*args, **kwargs))
except KeyboardInterrupt:
    loop.run_until_complete(close())
    # cancel all tasks lingering
finally:
    loop.close()

Warning

This function must be the last function to call due to the fact that it is blocking. That means that registration of events or anything being called after this function call will not execute until it returns.

wait_for(event, *, check=None, timeout=None)

This function is a coroutine.

Waits for a WebSocket event to be dispatched.

This could be used to wait for a user to reply to a message, or to react to a message, or to edit a message in a self-contained way.

The timeout parameter is passed onto asyncio.wait_for(). By default, it does not timeout. Note that this does propagate the asyncio.TimeoutError for you in case of timeout and is provided for ease of use.

In case the event returns multiple arguments, a tuple containing those arguments is returned instead. Please check the documentation for a list of events and their parameters.

This function returns the first event that meets the requirements.

Examples

Waiting for a user reply:

@client.event
async def on_message(message):
    if message.content.startswith('$greet'):
        channel = message.channel
        await channel.send('Say hello!')

        def check(m):
            return m.content == 'hello' and m.channel == channel

        msg = await client.wait_for('message', check=check)
        await channel.send(f'Hello {msg.author}!')

Waiting for a thumbs up reaction from the message author:

@client.event
async def on_message(message):
    if message.content.startswith('$thumb'):
        channel = message.channel
        await channel.send('Send me that 👍 reaction, mate')

        def check(reaction, user):
            return user == message.author and str(reaction.emoji) == '👍'

        try:
            reaction, user = await client.wait_for('reaction_add', timeout=60.0, check=check)
        except asyncio.TimeoutError:
            await channel.send('👎')
        else:
            await channel.send('👍')

Parameters:

• event (str) – The event name, similar to the event reference, but without the on_ prefix, to wait for.

• check (Optional[Callable[…, bool]]) – A predicate to check what to wait for. The arguments must meet the parameters of the event being waited for.

• timeout (Optional[float]) – The number of seconds to wait before timing out and raising asyncio.TimeoutError.

Raises:

asyncio.TimeoutError – If a timeout is provided and it was reached.

Returns:

Returns no arguments, a single argument, or a tuple of multiple arguments that mirrors the parameters passed in the event reference.

Return type:

Any

await wait_until_first_connect()

This function is a coroutine.

Waits until the first connect.

await wait_until_ready()

This function is a coroutine.

Waits until the client’s internal cache is all ready.

class disnake.ext.commands.InteractionBot(*, sync_commands=True, sync_commands_debug=False, sync_commands_on_cog_unload=True, test_guilds=None, **options)

Represents a discord bot for application commands only.

This class is a subclass of disnake.Client and as a result anything that you can do with a disnake.Client you can do with this bot.

This class also subclasses InteractionBotBase to provide the functionality to manage application commands.

owner_id

The user ID that owns the bot. If this is not set and is then queried via is_owner() then it is fetched automatically using application_info().

Type:

Optional[int]

owner_ids

The user IDs that owns the bot. This is similar to owner_id. If this is not set and the application is team based, then it is fetched automatically using application_info(). For performance reasons it is recommended to use a set for the collection. You cannot set both owner_id and owner_ids.

Type:

Optional[Collection[int]]

test_guilds

The list of IDs of the guilds where you’re going to test your application commands. Defaults to None, which means global registration of commands across all guilds.

New in version 2.1.

Type:

List[int]

sync_commands

Whether to enable automatic synchronization of application commands in your code. Defaults to True, which means that commands in API are automatically synced with the commands in your code.

New in version 2.1.

Type:

bool

sync_commands_on_cog_unload

Whether to sync the application commands on cog unload / reload. Defaults to True.

New in version 2.1.

Type:

bool

sync_commands_debug

Whether to always show sync debug logs (uses INFO log level if it’s enabled, prints otherwise). If disabled, uses the default DEBUG log level which isn’t shown unless the log level is changed manually. Useful for tracking the commands being registered in the API. Defaults to False.

New in version 2.1.

Changed in version 2.4: Changes the log level of corresponding messages from DEBUG to INFO or prints them, instead of controlling whether they are enabled at all.

Type:

bool

reload

Whether to enable automatic extension reloading on file modification for debugging. Whenever you save an extension with reloading enabled the file will be automatically reloaded for you so you do not have to reload the extension manually. Defaults to False

This is mainly useful for testing/debugging, consider disabling this eventually as missing localized names will automatically fall back to the default/base name without it. Only applicable if the localization_provider parameter is not provided. Defaults to False.

New in version 2.5.

Type:

bool

i18n

An implementation of LocalizationProtocol used for localization of application commands.

The functions being listened to must be a coroutine.

Example

@bot.listen()
async def on_message(message):
    print('one')

# in some other file...

@bot.listen('on_message')
async def my_message(message):

This is usually not called, instead the user_command() or shortcut decorators are used.

Parameters:

user_command (InvokableUserCommand) – The user command to add.

Raises:

• CommandRegistrationError – The user command is already registered.

• TypeError – The user command passed is not an instance of InvokableUserCommand.

add_view(view, *, message_id=None)

Type:

Set[InvokableMessageCommand]

await on_error(event_method, *args, **kwargs)

This function is a coroutine.

By default this prints to sys.stderr however it could be overridden to have a different implementation. Check on_error() for more details.

await on_gateway_error(event, data, shard_id, exc, /)

This function is a coroutine.

The default gateway error handler provided by the client.

By default this prints to sys.stderr however it could be overridden to have a different implementation. Check on_gateway_error() for more details.

New in version 2.6.

Note

Unlike on_error(), the exception is available as the exc parameter and cannot be obtained through sys.exc_info().

await on_message_command_error(interaction, exception)

This function is a coroutine.

Similar to on_slash_command_error() but for message commands.

await on_slash_command_error(interaction, exception)

This function is a coroutine.

The default slash command error handler provided by the bot.

By default this prints to sys.stderr however it could be overridden to have a different implementation.

This only fires if you do not specify any listeners for slash command error.

await on_user_command_error(interaction, exception)

This function is a coroutine.

Similar to on_slash_command_error() but for user commands.

property persistent_views

A sequence of persistent views added to the client.

New in version 2.0.

Type:

Sequence[View]

await process_app_command_autocompletion(inter)

This function is a coroutine.

This function processes the application command autocompletions. Without this coroutine, none of the autocompletions will be performed.

By default, this coroutine is called inside the on_application_command_autocomplete() event. If you choose to override the on_application_command_autocomplete() event, then you should invoke this coroutine as well.

Parameters:

inter (disnake.ApplicationCommandInteraction) – The interaction to process.

await process_application_commands(interaction)

This function is a coroutine.

This function processes the application commands that have been registered to the bot and other groups. Without this coroutine, none of the application commands will be triggered.

By default, this coroutine is called inside the on_application_command() event. If you choose to override the on_application_command() event, then you should invoke this coroutine as well.

Parameters:

interaction (disnake.ApplicationCommandInteraction) – The interaction to process commands for.

reload_extension(name, *, package=None)

Atomically reloads an extension.

This replaces the extension with the same extension, only refreshed. This is equivalent to a unload_extension() followed by a load_extension() except done in an atomic way. That is, if an operation fails mid-reload then the bot will roll-back to the prior working state.

Parameters:

• name (str) – The extension name to reload. It must be dot separated like regular Python imports if accessing a sub-module. e.g. foo.test if you want to import foo/test.py.

• package (Optional[str]) –

  The package name to resolve relative imports with. This is required when reloading an extension using a relative path, e.g .foo.test. Defaults to None.

  New in version 1.7.

Raises:

• ExtensionNotLoaded – The extension was not loaded.

• ExtensionNotFound – The extension could not be imported. This is also raised if the name of the extension could not be resolved using the provided package parameter.

• NoEntryPointError – The extension does not have a setup function.

• ExtensionFailed – The extension setup function had an execution error.

remove_app_command_check(func, *, call_once=False, slash_commands=False, user_commands=False, message_commands=False)

Removes a global application command check from the bot.

This function is idempotent and will not raise an exception if the function is not in the global checks.

You must specify at least one of the bool parameters, otherwise the check won’t be removed.

Parameters:

• func – The function to remove from the global checks.

• call_once (bool) – Whether the function was added with call_once=True in the Bot.add_check() call or using check_once().

• slash_commands (bool) – Whether this check was for slash commands.

• user_commands (bool) – Whether this check was for user commands.

• message_commands (bool) – Whether this check was for message commands.

remove_cog(name)

Removes a cog from the bot and returns it.

All registered commands and event listeners that the cog has registered will be removed as well.

If no cog is found then this method has no effect.

Parameters:

name (str) – The name of the cog to remove.

Returns:

The cog that was removed. Returns None if not found.

Return type:

Optional[Cog]

remove_listener(func, name=...)

Returns:

The message command that was removed. If the name is not valid then None is returned instead.

Return type:

Optional[InvokableMessageCommand]

remove_slash_command(name)

Removes an InvokableSlashCommand from the internal list of slash commands.

Parameters:

name (str) – The name of the slash command to remove.

Returns:

Parameters:

name (str) – The name of the user command to remove.

Returns:

The user command that was removed. If the name is not valid then None is returned instead.

Return type:

Optional[InvokableUserCommand]

run(*args, **kwargs)

A blocking call that abstracts away the event loop initialisation from you.

If you want more control over the event loop then this function should not be used. Use start() coroutine or connect() + login().

Roughly Equivalent to:

try:
    loop.run_until_complete(start(*args, **kwargs))
except KeyboardInterrupt:
    loop.run_until_complete(close())
    # cancel all tasks lingering
finally:
    loop.close()

Warning

This function must be the last function to call due to the fact that it is blocking. That means that registration of events or anything being called after this function call will not execute until it returns.

When the extension is unloaded, all commands, listeners, and cogs are removed from the bot and the module is un-imported.

The extension can provide an optional global function, teardown, to do miscellaneous clean-up if necessary. This function takes a single parameter, the bot, similar to setup from load_extension().

Parameters:

• name (str) – The extension name to unload. It must be dot separated like regular Python imports if accessing a sub-module. e.g. foo.test if you want to import foo/test.py.

wait_for(event, *, check=None, timeout=None)

This function is a coroutine.

Waits for a WebSocket event to be dispatched.

This could be used to wait for a user to reply to a message, or to react to a message, or to edit a message in a self-contained way.

The timeout parameter is passed onto asyncio.wait_for(). By default, it does not timeout. Note that this does propagate the asyncio.TimeoutError for you in case of timeout and is provided for ease of use.

In case the event returns multiple arguments, a tuple containing those arguments is returned instead. Please check the documentation for a list of events and their parameters.

This function returns the first event that meets the requirements.

Examples

Waiting for a user reply:

@client.event
async def on_message(message):
    if message.content.startswith('$greet'):
        channel = message.channel
        await channel.send('Say hello!')

        def check(m):
            return m.content == 'hello' and m.channel == channel

        msg = await client.wait_for('message', check=check)
        await channel.send(f'Hello {msg.author}!')

Waiting for a thumbs up reaction from the message author:

@client.event
async def on_message(message):
    if message.content.startswith('$thumb'):
        channel = message.channel
        await channel.send('Send me that 👍 reaction, mate')

        def check(reaction, user):
            return user == message.author and str(reaction.emoji) == '👍'

        try:
            reaction, user = await client.wait_for('reaction_add', timeout=60.0, check=check)
        except asyncio.TimeoutError:
            await channel.send('👎')
        else:
            await channel.send('👍')

Parameters:

• event (str) – The event name, similar to the event reference, but without the on_ prefix, to wait for.

• check (Optional[Callable[…, bool]]) – A predicate to check what to wait for. The arguments must meet the parameters of the event being waited for.

• timeout (Optional[float]) – The number of seconds to wait before timing out and raising asyncio.TimeoutError.

Raises:

asyncio.TimeoutError – If a timeout is provided and it was reached.

Returns:

Returns no arguments, a single argument, or a tuple of multiple arguments that mirrors the parameters passed in the event reference.

Return type:

Any

await wait_until_first_connect()

This function is a coroutine.

Waits until the first connect.

await wait_until_ready()

This function is a coroutine.

Waits until the client’s internal cache is all ready.

These are meant to be passed into the Bot.command_prefix attribute.

disnake.ext.commands.when_mentioned_or(*prefixes)

A callable that implements when mentioned or other prefixes provided.

These are meant to be passed into the Bot.command_prefix attribute.

Example

bot = commands.Bot(command_prefix=commands.when_mentioned_or('!'))

Note

This callable returns another callable, so if this is done inside a custom callable, you must call the returned callable, for example:

async def get_prefix(bot, message):
    extras = await prefixes_for(message.guild) # returns a list
    return commands.when_mentioned_or(*extras)(bot, message)

See also

when_mentioned()

class disnake.ext.commands.Group(*args, **kwargs)

A class that implements a grouping protocol for commands to be executed as subcommands.

This class is a subclass of Command and thus all options valid in Command are valid in here as well.

invoke_without_command

Indicates if the group callback should begin parsing and invocation only if no subcommand was found. Useful for making it an error handling function to tell the user that no subcommand was found or to have different functionality in case no subcommand was found. If this is False, then the group callback will always be invoked first. This means that the checks and the parsing dictated by its parameters will be executed. Defaults to False.

Indicates if the group’s commands should be case insensitive. Defaults to False.

Type:

bool

@after_invoke

A decorator that registers a coroutine as a post-invoke hook.

See Bot.after_invoke() for more info.

Parameters:

coro (coroutine) – The coroutine to register as the post-invoke hook.

Raises:

TypeError – The coroutine passed is not actually a coroutine.

@before_invoke

A pre-invoke hook is called directly before the command is called. This makes it a useful function to set up database connections or any type of set up required.

This pre-invoke hook takes a sole parameter, a Context.

See Bot.before_invoke() for more info.

Parameters:

coro (coroutine) – The coroutine to register as the pre-invoke hook.

Raises:

TypeError – The coroutine passed is not actually a coroutine.

@command(*args, **kwargs)

Returns:

A decorator that converts the provided method into a Command, adds it to the bot, then returns it.

Return type:

Callable[…, Command]

@error

A decorator that registers a coroutine as a local error handler.

A local error handler is an on_command_error() event limited to a single command. However, the on_command_error() is still invoked afterwards as the catch-all.

coro (coroutine) – The coroutine to register as the local error handler.

Raises:

TypeError – The coroutine passed is not actually a coroutine.

@group(*args, **kwargs)

A shortcut decorator that invokes group() and adds it to the internal command list via add_command().

• description
• message_command_attrs
• name
• slash_command_attrs
• user_command_attrs

class disnake.ext.commands.CogMeta(*args, **kwargs)

A metaclass for defining a cog.

Note that you should probably not use this directly. It is exposed purely for documentation purposes along with making custom metaclasses to intermix with other metaclasses such as the abc.ABCMeta metaclass.

For example, to create an abstract cog mixin class, the following would be done.

import abc

class CogABCMeta(commands.CogMeta, abc.ABCMeta):
    pass

class SomeMixin(metaclass=abc.ABCMeta):
    pass

class SomeCogMixin(SomeMixin, commands.Cog, metaclass=CogABCMeta):
    pass

Note

When passing an attribute of a metaclass that is documented below, note that you must pass it as a keyword-only argument to the class creation like the following example:

class MyCog(commands.Cog, name='My Cog'):
    pass

name

The cog name. By default, it is the name of the class with no modification.

Type:

str

description

The cog description. By default, it is the cleaned docstring of the class.

New in version 1.6.

Type:

str

command_attrs

A list of attributes to apply to every command inside this cog. The dictionary is passed into the Command options at __init__. If you specify attributes inside the command attribute in the class, it will override the one specified inside this attribute. For example:

class MyCog(commands.Cog, command_attrs=dict(hidden=True)):
    @commands.command()
    async def foo(self, ctx):
        pass # hidden -> True

    @commands.command(hidden=False)
    async def bar(self, ctx):
        pass # hidden -> False

Type:

Dict[str, Any]

slash_command_attrs

A list of attributes to apply to every slash command inside this cog. The dictionary is passed into the options of every InvokableSlashCommand at __init__. Usage of this kwarg is otherwise the same as with command_attrs.

Note

This does not apply to instances of SubCommand or SubCommandGroup.

New in version 2.5.

Type:

Dict[str, Any]

user_command_attrs

A list of attributes to apply to every user command inside this cog. The dictionary is passed into the options of every InvokableUserCommand at __init__. Usage of this kwarg is otherwise the same as with command_attrs.

Type:

Optional[Context]

show_hidden

Specifies if hidden commands should be shown in the output. Defaults to False.

When a cog is set for the help command, it is as-if the help command belongs to that cog. All cog special methods will apply to the help command and it will be automatically unset on unload.

To unbind the cog from the help command, you can set it to None.

Returns:

The cog that is currently set for the help command.

Return type:

Optional[Cog]

command_not_found(string)

This function could be a coroutine.

A method called when a command is not found in the help command. This is useful to override for i18n.

Defaults to No command called {0} found.

Parameters:

string (str) – The string that contains the invalid command. Note that this has had mentions removed to prevent abuse.

Returns:

The string to use when a command has not been found.

Return type:

str

subcommand_not_found(command, string)

This function could be a coroutine.

A method called when a command did not have a subcommand requested in the help command. This is useful to override for i18n.

Defaults to either:

• 'Command "{command.qualified_name}" has no subcommands.'

  • If there is no subcommand in the command parameter.

• 'Command "{command.qualified_name}" has no subcommand named {string}'

  • If the command parameter has subcommands but not one named string.

Parameters:

• command (Command) – The command that did not have the subcommand requested.

• string (str) – The string that contains the invalid subcommand. Note that this has had mentions removed to prevent abuse.

Returns:

The string to use when the command did not have the subcommand requested.

Return type:

str

await filter_commands(commands, *, sort=False, key=None)

This function is a coroutine.

Returns a filtered list of commands and optionally sorts them.

This takes into account the verify_checks and show_hidden attributes.

Parameters:

• commands (Iterable[Command]) – An iterable of commands that are getting filtered.

• sort (bool) – Whether to sort the result.

• key (Optional[Callable[Command, Any]]) – An optional key function to pass to sorted() that takes a Command as its sole parameter. If sort is passed as True then this will default as the command name.

Returns:

A list of commands that passed the filter.

Return type:

List[Command]

get_max_size(commands)

Returns the largest name length of the specified command list.

Parameters:

commands (Sequence[Command]) – A sequence of commands to check for the largest size.

Returns:

The maximum width of the commands.

Return type:

int

get_destination()

Returns the Messageable where the help command will be output.

You can override this method to customise the behaviour.

By default this returns the context’s channel.

Returns:

The destination where the help command will be output.

Return type:

abc.Messageable

await send_error_message(error)

This function is a coroutine.

Handles the implementation when an error happens in the help command. For example, the result of command_not_found() will be passed here.

You can override this method to customise the behaviour.

By default, this sends the error message to the destination specified by get_destination().

Note

You can access the invocation context with HelpCommand.context.

Parameters:

error (str) – The error message to display to the user. Note that this has had mentions removed to prevent abuse.

await on_help_command_error(ctx, error)

This function is a coroutine.

The help command’s error handler, as specified by Error Handling.

Useful to override if you need some specific behaviour when the error handler is called.

By default this method does nothing and just propagates to the default error handlers.

Parameters:

• ctx (Context) – The invocation context.

• error (CommandError) – The error that was raised.

await send_bot_help(mapping)

This function is a coroutine.

Handles the implementation of the bot command page in the help command. This function is called when the help command is called with no arguments.

It should be noted that this method does not return anything – rather the actual message sending should be done inside this method. Well behaved subclasses should use get_destination() to know where to send, as this is a customisation point for other users.

You can override this method to customise the behaviour.

Note

You can access the invocation context with HelpCommand.context.

Also, the commands in the mapping are not filtered. To do the filtering you will have to call filter_commands() yourself.

Parameters:

mapping (Mapping[Optional[Cog], List[Command]]) – A mapping of cogs to commands that have been requested by the user for help. The key of the mapping is the Cog that the command belongs to, or None if there isn’t one, and the value is a list of commands that belongs to that cog.

await send_cog_help(cog)

This function is a coroutine.

Handles the implementation of the cog page in the help command. This function is called when the help command is called with a cog as the argument.

It should be noted that this method does not return anything – rather the actual message sending should be done inside this method. Well behaved subclasses should use get_destination() to know where to send, as this is a customisation point for other users.

You can override this method to customise the behaviour.

Note

You can access the invocation context with HelpCommand.context.

To get the commands that belong to this cog see Cog.get_commands(). The commands returned not filtered. To do the filtering you will have to call filter_commands() yourself.

Parameters:

cog (Cog) – The cog that was requested for help.

await send_group_help(group)

This function is a coroutine.

Handles the implementation of the group page in the help command. This function is called when the help command is called with a group as the argument.

It should be noted that this method does not return anything – rather the actual message sending should be done inside this method. Well behaved subclasses should use get_destination() to know where to send, as this is a customisation point for other users.

You can override this method to customise the behaviour.

Note

You can access the invocation context with HelpCommand.context.

To get the commands that belong to this group without aliases see Group.commands. The commands returned are not filtered. To do the filtering you will have to call filter_commands() yourself.

Parameters:

group (Group) – The group that was requested for help.

await send_command_help(command)

This function is a coroutine.

Handles the implementation of the single command page in the help command.

It should be noted that this method does not return anything – rather the actual message sending should be done inside this method. Well behaved subclasses should use get_destination() to know where to send, as this is a customisation point for other users.

You can override this method to customise the behaviour.

Note

You can access the invocation context with HelpCommand.context.

Showing Help

There are certain attributes and methods that are helpful for a help command to show such as the following:

• Command.help

• Command.brief

• Command.short_doc

• Command.description

• get_command_signature()

There are more than just these attributes but feel free to play around with these to help you get started to get the output that you want.

Parameters:

command (Command) – The command that was requested for help.

await prepare_help_command(ctx, command=None)

This function is a coroutine.

A low level method that can be used to prepare the help command before it does anything. For example, if you need to prepare some state in your subclass before the command does its processing then this would be the place to do it.

The default implementation does nothing.

Note

This is called inside the help command callback body. So all the usual rules that happen inside apply here as well.

Parameters:

• ctx (Context) – The invocation context.

• command (Optional[str]) – The argument passed to the help command.

await command_callback(ctx, *, command=None)

This function is a coroutine.

The actual implementation of the help command.

It is not recommended to override this method and instead change the behaviour through the methods that actually get dispatched.

• send_bot_help()

• send_cog_help()

• send_group_help()

• send_command_help()

• get_destination()

• command_not_found()

Checks

@disnake.ext.commands.check(predicate)

A decorator that adds a check to the Command or its subclasses. These checks could be accessed via Command.checks.

These checks should be predicates that take in a single parameter taking a Context. If the check returns a False-like value then during invocation a CheckFailure exception is raised and sent to the on_command_error() event.

If an exception should be thrown in the predicate then it should be a subclass of CommandError. Any exception not subclassed from it will be propagated while those subclassed will be sent to on_command_error().

A special attribute named predicate is bound to the value returned by this decorator to retrieve the predicate passed to the decorator. This allows the following introspection and chaining to be done:

def owner_or_permissions(**perms):
    original = commands.has_permissions(**perms).predicate
    async def extended_check(ctx):
        if ctx.guild is None:
            return False
        return ctx.guild.owner_id == ctx.author.id or await original(ctx)
    return commands.check(extended_check)

Note

The function returned by predicate is always a coroutine, even if the original function was not a coroutine.

Changed in version 1.3: The predicate attribute was added.

Examples

Creating a basic check to see if the command invoker is you.

def check_if_it_is_me(ctx):
    return ctx.message.author.id == 85309593344815104

@bot.command()
@commands.check(check_if_it_is_me)
async def only_for_me(ctx):
    await ctx.send('I know you!')

Transforming common checks into its own decorator:

def is_me():
    def predicate(ctx):
        return ctx.message.author.id == 85309593344815104
    return commands.check(predicate)

@bot.command()
@is_me()
async def only_me(ctx):
    await ctx.send('Only you!')

Parameters:

predicate (Callable[[Context], bool]) – The predicate to check if the command should be invoked.

@disnake.ext.commands.check_any(*checks)

A check() that is added that checks if any of the checks passed will pass, i.e. using logical OR.

If all checks fail then CheckAnyFailure is raised to signal the failure. It inherits from CheckFailure.

Note

The predicate attribute for this function is a coroutine.

New in version 1.3.

Parameters:

*checks (Callable[[Context], bool]) – An argument list of checks that have been decorated with the check() decorator.

Raises:

TypeError – A check passed has not been decorated with the check() decorator.

Examples

Creating a basic check to see if it’s the bot owner or the server owner:

def is_guild_owner():
    def predicate(ctx):
        return ctx.guild is not None and ctx.guild.owner_id == ctx.author.id
    return commands.check(predicate)

@bot.command()
@commands.check_any(commands.is_owner(), is_guild_owner())
async def only_for_owners(ctx):
    await ctx.send('Hello mister owner!')

@disnake.ext.commands.has_role(item)

A check() that is added that checks if the member invoking the command has the role specified via the name or ID specified.

If a string is specified, you must give the exact name of the role, including caps and spelling.

If an integer is specified, you must give the exact snowflake ID of the role.

If the message is invoked in a private message context then the check will return False.

This check raises one of two special exceptions, MissingRole if the user is missing a role, or NoPrivateMessage if it is used in a private message. Both inherit from CheckFailure.

Changed in version 1.1: Raise MissingRole or NoPrivateMessage instead of generic CheckFailure

Parameters:

item (Union[int, str]) – The name or ID of the role to check.

@disnake.ext.commands.has_permissions(**perms)

A check() that is added that checks if the member has all of the permissions necessary.

Note that this check operates on the current channel permissions, not the guild wide permissions.

The permissions passed in must be exactly like the properties shown under disnake.Permissions.

This check raises a special exception, MissingPermissions that is inherited from CheckFailure.

Changed in version 2.6: Considers if the author is timed out.

Parameters:

perms – An argument list of permissions to check for.

Example

@bot.command()
@commands.has_permissions(manage_messages=True)
async def test(ctx):
    await ctx.send('You can manage messages.')

@disnake.ext.commands.has_guild_permissions(**perms)

Similar to has_permissions(), but operates on guild wide permissions instead of the current channel permissions.

If this check is called in a DM context, it will raise an exception, NoPrivateMessage.

New in version 1.3.

@disnake.ext.commands.has_any_role(*items)

A check() that is added that checks if the member invoking the command has any of the roles specified. This means that if they have one out of the three roles specified, then this check will return True.

Similar to has_role(), the names or IDs passed in must be exact.

This check raises one of two special exceptions, MissingAnyRole if the user is missing all roles, or NoPrivateMessage if it is used in a private message. Both inherit from CheckFailure.

Changed in version 1.1: Raise MissingAnyRole or NoPrivateMessage instead of generic CheckFailure

Parameters:

items (List[Union[str, int]]) – An argument list of names or IDs to check that the member has roles wise.

Example

@bot.command()
@commands.has_any_role('Library Devs', 'Moderators', 492212595072434186)
async def cool(ctx):
    await ctx.send('You are cool indeed')

@disnake.ext.commands.bot_has_role(item)

Similar to has_role() except checks if the bot itself has the role.

This check raises one of two special exceptions, BotMissingRole if the bot is missing the role, or NoPrivateMessage if it is used in a private message. Both inherit from CheckFailure.

Changed in version 1.1: Raise BotMissingRole or NoPrivateMessage instead of generic CheckFailure

@disnake.ext.commands.bot_has_permissions(**perms)

Similar to has_permissions() except checks if the bot itself has the permissions listed.

This check raises a special exception, BotMissingPermissions that is inherited from CheckFailure.

Changed in version 2.6: Considers if the author is timed out.

@disnake.ext.commands.bot_has_guild_permissions(**perms)

Similar to has_guild_permissions(), but checks the bot members guild permissions.

New in version 1.3.

@disnake.ext.commands.bot_has_any_role(*items)

Similar to has_any_role() except checks if the bot itself has any of the roles listed.

This check raises one of two special exceptions, BotMissingAnyRole if the bot is missing all roles, or NoPrivateMessage if it is used in a private message. Both inherit from CheckFailure.

Changed in version 1.1: Raise BotMissingAnyRole or NoPrivateMessage instead of generic checkfailure

@disnake.ext.commands.cooldown(rate, per, type=disnake.ext.commands.BucketType.default)

A decorator that adds a cooldown to a Command

A cooldown allows a command to only be used a specific amount of times in a specific time frame. These cooldowns can be based either on a per-guild, per-channel, per-user, per-role or global basis. Denoted by the third argument of type which must be of enum type BucketType.

If a cooldown is triggered, then CommandOnCooldown is triggered in on_command_error() and the local error handler.

A command can only have a single cooldown.

Parameters:

• rate (int) – The number of times a command can be used before triggering a cooldown.

• per (float) – The amount of seconds to wait for a cooldown when it’s been triggered.

• type (Union[BucketType, Callable[[Message], Any]]) –

  The type of cooldown to have. If callable, should return a key for the mapping.

  Changed in version 1.7: Callables are now supported for custom bucket types.

@disnake.ext.commands.dynamic_cooldown(cooldown, type=BucketType.default)

A decorator that adds a dynamic cooldown to a Command

This differs from cooldown() in that it takes a function that accepts a single parameter of type disnake.Message and must return a Cooldown or None. If None is returned then that cooldown is effectively bypassed.

A cooldown allows a command to only be used a specific amount of times in a specific time frame. These cooldowns can be based either on a per-guild, per-channel, per-user, per-role or global basis. Denoted by the third argument of type which must be of enum type BucketType.

If a cooldown is triggered, then CommandOnCooldown is triggered in on_command_error() and the local error handler.

A command can only have a single cooldown.

New in version 2.0.

Parameters:

• cooldown (Callable[[disnake.Message], Optional[Cooldown]]) – A function that takes a message and returns a cooldown that will apply to this invocation or None if the cooldown should be bypassed.

• type (BucketType) – The type of cooldown to have.

@disnake.ext.commands.max_concurrency(number, per=disnake.ext.commands.BucketType.default, *, wait=False)

A decorator that adds a maximum concurrency to a Command or its subclasses.

This enables you to only allow a certain number of command invocations at the same time, for example if a command takes too long or if only one user can use it at a time. This differs from a cooldown in that there is no set waiting period or token bucket – only a set number of people can run the command.

New in version 1.3.

Parameters:

• number (int) – The maximum number of invocations of this command that can be running at the same time.

• per (BucketType) – The bucket that this concurrency is based on, e.g. BucketType.guild would allow it to be used up to number times per guild.

• wait (bool) – Whether the command should wait for the queue to be over. If this is set to False then instead of waiting until the command can run again, the command raises MaxConcurrencyReached to its error handler. If this is set to True then the command waits until it can be executed.

@disnake.ext.commands.before_invoke(coro)

A decorator that registers a coroutine as a pre-invoke hook.

This allows you to refer to one before invoke hook for several commands that do not have to be within the same cog.

New in version 1.4.

Example

async def record_usage(ctx):
    print(ctx.author, 'used', ctx.command, 'at', ctx.message.created_at)

@bot.command()
@commands.before_invoke(record_usage)
async def who(ctx): # Output: <User> used who at <Time>
    await ctx.send('i am a bot')

class What(commands.Cog):

    @commands.before_invoke(record_usage)
    @commands.command()
    async def when(self, ctx): # Output: <User> used when at <Time>
        await ctx.send(f'and i have existed since {ctx.bot.user.created_at}')

    @commands.command()
    async def where(self, ctx): # Output: <Nothing>
        await ctx.send('on Discord')

    @commands.command()
    async def why(self, ctx): # Output: <Nothing>
        await ctx.send('because someone made me')

bot.add_cog(What())

@disnake.ext.commands.after_invoke(coro)

A decorator that registers a coroutine as a post-invoke hook.

This allows you to refer to one after invoke hook for several commands that do not have to be within the same cog.

New in version 1.4.

@disnake.ext.commands.guild_only()

A check() that indicates this command must only be used in a guild context only. Basically, no private messages are allowed when using the command.

This check raises a special exception, NoPrivateMessage that is inherited from CheckFailure.

@disnake.ext.commands.dm_only()

A check() that indicates this command must only be used in a DM context. Only private messages are allowed when using the command.

This check raises a special exception, PrivateMessageOnly that is inherited from CheckFailure.

New in version 1.1.

@disnake.ext.commands.is_owner()

A check() that checks if the person invoking this command is the owner of the bot.

This is powered by Bot.is_owner().

This check raises a special exception, NotOwner that is derived from CheckFailure.

@disnake.ext.commands.is_nsfw()

A check() that checks if the channel is a NSFW channel.

This check raises a special exception, NSFWChannelRequired that is derived from CheckFailure.

Changed in version 1.1: Raise NSFWChannelRequired instead of generic CheckFailure. DM channels will also now pass this check.

@disnake.ext.commands.default_member_permissions(value=0, **permissions)

A decorator that sets default required member permissions for the command. Unlike has_permissions(), this decorator does not add any checks. Instead, it prevents the command from being run by members without all required permissions, if not overridden by moderators on a guild-specific basis.

See also the default_member_permissions parameter for application command decorators.

Note

This does not work with slash subcommands/groups.

Example

This would only allow members with manage_messages and view_audit_log permissions to use the command by default, however moderators can override this and allow/disallow specific users and roles to use the command in their guilds regardless of this setting.

@bot.slash_command()
@commands.default_member_permissions(manage_messages=True, view_audit_log=True)
async def purge(inter, num: int):
    ...

Parameters:

• value (int) – A raw permission bitfield of an integer representing the required permissions. May be used instead of specifying kwargs.

• **permissions (bool) – The required permissions for a command. A member must have all these permissions to be able to invoke the command. Setting a permission to False does not affect the result.

Represents the context in which a command is being invoked under.

This class contains a lot of meta data to help you understand more about the invocation context. This class is not created manually and is instead passed around to commands as the first parameter.

This class implements the abc.Messageable ABC.

message

The message that triggered the command being executed.

Type:

Message

bot

The bot that contains the command being executed.

Type:

Bot

args

The list of transformed arguments that were passed into the command. If this is accessed during the on_command_error() event then this list could be incomplete.

Type:

list

kwargs

A dictionary of transformed arguments that were passed into the command. Similar to args, if this is accessed in the on_command_error() event then this dict could be incomplete.

Type:

dict

current_parameter

List[str]

invoked_subcommand

The subcommand that was invoked. If no valid subcommand was invoked then this is equal to None.

Type:

Optional[Command]

subcommand_passed

The string that was attempted to call a subcommand. This does not have to point to a valid registered subcommand and could just point to a nonsense string. If nothing was passed to attempt a call to a subcommand then this is set to None.

Whether the command failed to be parsed, checked, or invoked.

Type:

bool

async for ... in history(*, limit=100, before=None, after=None, around=None, oldest_first=None)

Returns an AsyncIterator that enables receiving the destination’s message history.

You must have Permissions.read_message_history permission to use this.

Examples

Usage

counter = 0
async for message in channel.history(limit=200):
    if message.author == client.user:
        counter += 1

Flattening into a list:

messages = await channel.history(limit=123).flatten()
# messages is now a list of Message...

All parameters are optional.

Parameters:

• limit (Optional[int]) – The number of messages to retrieve. If None, retrieves every message in the channel. Note, however, that this would make it a slow operation.

• before (Optional[Union[abc.Snowflake, datetime.datetime]]) – Retrieve messages before this date or message. If a datetime is provided, it is recommended to use a UTC aware datetime. If the datetime is naive, it is assumed to be local time.

• after (Optional[Union[abc.Snowflake, datetime.datetime]]) – Retrieve messages after this date or message. If a datetime is provided, it is recommended to use a UTC aware datetime. If the datetime is naive, it is assumed to be local time.

• around (Optional[Union[abc.Snowflake, datetime.datetime]]) – Retrieve messages around this date or message. If a datetime is provided, it is recommended to use a UTC aware datetime. If the datetime is naive, it is assumed to be local time. When using this argument, the maximum limit is 101. Note that if the limit is an even number then this will return at most limit + 1 messages.

• oldest_first (Optional[bool]) – If set to True, return messages in oldest->newest order. Defaults to True if after is specified, otherwise False.

Raises:

• Forbidden – You do not have permissions to get channel message history.

• HTTPException – The request to get message history failed.

Yields:

Message – The message with the message data parsed.

async with typing()

Returns a context manager that allows you to type for an indefinite period of time.

This is useful for denoting long computations in your bot.

Note

This is both a regular context manager and an async context manager. This means that both with and async with work with this.

Example Usage:

async with channel.typing():
    # simulate something heavy
    await asyncio.sleep(10)

await channel.send('done!')

await invoke(command, /, *args, **kwargs)

This function is a coroutine.

Calls a command with the arguments given.

This is useful if you want to just call the callback that a Command holds internally.

Note

This does not handle converters, checks, cooldowns, pre-invoke, or after-invoke hooks in any matter. It calls the internal callback directly as-if it was a regular function.

You must take care in passing the proper arguments when using this function.

Parameters:

• command (Command) – The command that is going to be called.

• *args – The arguments to use.

• **kwargs – The keyword arguments to use.

Raises:

TypeError – The command argument to invoke is missing.

await reinvoke(*, call_hooks=False, restart=True)

This function is a coroutine.

Calls the command again.

This is similar to invoke() except that it bypasses checks, cooldowns, and error handlers.

Note

If you want to bypass UserInputError derived exceptions, it is recommended to use the regular invoke() as it will work more naturally. After all, this will end up using the old arguments the user has used and will thus just fail again.

Parameters:

• call_hooks (bool) – Whether to call the before and after invoke hooks.

• restart (bool) – Whether to start the call chain from the very beginning or where we left off (i.e. the command that caused the error). The default is to start where we left off.

Raises:

ValueError – The context to reinvoke is not valid.

property valid

Whether the invocation context is valid to be invoked with.

Type:

bool

property clean_prefix

The cleaned up invoke prefix. i.e. mentions are @name instead of <@id>.

New in version 2.0.

Type:

str

property cog

Returns the cog associated with this context’s command. Returns None if it does not exist.

Type:

Optional[Cog]

guild

Returns the guild associated with this context’s command. Returns None if not available.

Type:

Optional[Guild]

channel

Returns the channel associated with this context’s command. Shorthand for Message.channel.

Type:

Union[abc.Messageable]

author

Union[User, Member]: Returns the author associated with this context’s command. Shorthand for Message.author

me

Union[Member, ClientUser]: Similar to Guild.me except it may return the ClientUser in private message contexts.

property voice_client

A shortcut to Guild.voice_client, if applicable.

Type:

Optional[VoiceProtocol]

await send_help(entity=<bot>)

This function is a coroutine.

Shows the help command for the specified entity if given. The entity can be a command or a cog.

If no entity is given, then it’ll show help for the entire bot.

If the entity is a string, then it looks up whether it’s a Cog or a Command.

Note

Due to the way this function works, instead of returning something similar to command_not_found() this returns None on bad input or no help command.

Parameters:

entity (Optional[Union[Command, Cog, str]]) – The entity to show help for.

Returns:

The result of the help command, if any.

Return type:

Any

await reply(content=None, *, fail_if_not_exists=True, **kwargs)

This function is a coroutine.

Whether replying using the message reference should raise HTTPException if the message no longer exists or Discord could not fetch the message.

New in version 2.3.

Raises:

• HTTPException – Sending the message failed.

• Forbidden – You do not have the proper permissions to send the message.

• TypeError – You specified both embed and embeds, or file and files, or view and components.

• ValueError – The files or embeds list is too large.

Returns:

The message that was sent.

Return type:

Message

await fetch_message(id, /)

This function is a coroutine.

Retrieves a single Message from the destination.

Parameters:

The message asked for.

Return type:

Message

await pins()

This function is a coroutine.

Retrieves all messages that are currently pinned in the channel.

Note

Due to a limitation with the Discord API, the Message objects returned by this method do not contain complete Message.reactions data.

Raises:

HTTPException – Retrieving the pinned messages failed.

Returns:

The messages that are currently pinned.

Return type:

List[Message]

await send(content=None, *, tts=False, embed=None, embeds=None, file=None, files=None, stickers=None, delete_after=None, nonce=None, suppress_embeds=False, allowed_mentions=None, reference=None, mention_author=None, view=None, components=None)

Sends a message to the destination with the content given.

The content must be a type that can convert to a string through str(content).

At least one of content, embed/embeds, file/files, stickers, components, or view must be provided.

To upload a single file, the file parameter should be used with a single File object. To upload multiple files, the files parameter should be used with a list of File objects. Specifying both parameters will lead to an exception.

To upload a single embed, the embed parameter should be used with a single Embed object. To upload multiple embeds, the embeds parameter should be used with a list of Embed objects. Specifying both parameters will lead to an exception.

Changed in version 2.6: Raises TypeError or ValueError instead of InvalidArgument.

Parameters:

• content (Optional[str]) – The content of the message to send.

• tts (bool) – Whether the message should be sent using text-to-speech.

• embed (Embed) – The rich embed for the content to send. This cannot be mixed with the embeds parameter.

  A list of stickers to upload. Must be a maximum of 3.

  New in version 2.0.

• nonce (Union[str, int]) – The nonce to use for sending this message. If the message was successfully sent, then the message will have a nonce with this value.

• delete_after (float) – If provided, the number of seconds to wait in the background before deleting the message we just sent. If the deletion fails, then it is silently ignored.

• allowed_mentions (AllowedMentions) –

  Controls the mentions being processed in this message. If this is passed, then the object is merged with Client.allowed_mentions. The merging behaviour only overrides attributes that have been explicitly passed to the object, otherwise it uses the attributes set in Client.allowed_mentions. If no object is passed at all then the defaults given by Client.allowed_mentions are used instead.

  New in version 1.4.

• reference (Union[Message, MessageReference, PartialMessage]) –

  A reference to the Message to which you are replying, this can be created using Message.to_reference() or passed directly as a Message. You can control whether this mentions the author of the referenced message using the AllowedMentions.replied_user attribute of allowed_mentions or by setting mention_author.

  New in version 1.6.

• mention_author (Optional[bool]) –

  If set, overrides the AllowedMentions.replied_user attribute of allowed_mentions.

class disnake.ext.commands.Greedy

A special converter that greedily consumes arguments until it can’t. As a consequence of this behaviour, most input errors are silently discarded, since it is used as an indicator of when to stop parsing.

When a parser error is met the greedy converter stops converting, undoes the internal string parsing routine, and continues parsing regularly.

For example, in the following code:

@commands.command()
async def test(ctx, numbers: Greedy[int], reason: str):
    await ctx.send("numbers: {0}, reason: {1}".format(numbers, reason))

An invocation of [p]test 1 2 3 4 5 6 hello would pass numbers with [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6] and reason with hello.

App command sync

If you’re using disnake.ext.commands – Bot commands framework for application commands (slash commands, context menus) you should understand how your commands show up in Discord. If sync_commands kwarg of Bot (or a similar class) is set to True (which is the default value) the library registers / updates all commands automatically. Based on the application commands defined in your code it decides which commands should be registered, edited or deleted but there’re some edge cases you should keep in mind.

Changing test guilds

If you remove some IDs from the test_guilds kwarg of Bot (or a similar class) or from the guild_ids kwarg of slash_command (user_command, message_command) the commands in those guilds won’t be deleted instantly. Instead, they’ll be deleted as soon as one of the deprecated commands is invoked. Your bot will send a message like “This command has just been synced …”.

Hosting the bot on multiple machines

If your bot requires shard distribution across several machines, you should set sync_commands kwarg to False everywhere except 1 machine. This will prevent conflicts and race conditions. Discord API doesn’t provide users with events related to application command updates, so it’s impossible to keep the cache of multiple machines synced. Having only 1 machine with sync_commands set to True is enough because global registration of application commands doesn’t depend on sharding.

Why do Param and Injection-related functions return Any?

If your editor of choice supports type-checking, you may have noticed that Param(), inject(), and injection() do not have a specific return type, but at runtime these return ParamInfo and Injection respectively.

A typical example of a slash command might look like this:

@bot.slash_command(description="Replies with the given text!")
async def echo(
    inter: disnake.ApplicationCommandInteraction,
    text: str = commands.Param(description="Echo~"),
) -> None:
    await inter.response.send_message(text)

Here, you have two parameters in your command’s function: inter, an instance of disnake.ApplicationCommandInteraction, and text, which is somewhat unusual: you annotate text as str, but at the same time, assign a ParamInfo instance to it. That’s the thing. When your editor type-checks your (any library’s) code, it would normally complain if you tried to do the above, because you’re trying to assign a ParamInfo to a str - however, since the library declares Param’s return type as Any, the type-checker accepts your code, because str (and any type) is a subtype of Any.

The same thing applies to inject() and injection().

disnake.ext.tasks – asyncio.Task helpers

New in version 1.1.0.

One of the most common operations when making a bot is having a loop run in the background at a specified interval. This pattern is very common but has a lot of things you need to look out for:

• How do I handle asyncio.CancelledError?

• What do I do if the internet goes out?

• What is the maximum number of seconds I can sleep anyway?

The goal of this disnake extension is to abstract all these worries away from you.

Recipes

A simple background task in a Cog:

from disnake.ext import tasks, commands

class MyCog(commands.Cog):
    def __init__(self):
        self.index = 0
        self.printer.start()

    def cog_unload(self):
        self.printer.cancel()

    @tasks.loop(seconds=5.0)
    async def printer(self):
        print(self.index)
        self.index += 1

Adding an exception to handle during reconnect:

import asyncpg
from disnake.ext import tasks, commands

class MyCog(commands.Cog):
    def __init__(self, bot):
        self.bot = bot
        self.data = []
        self.batch_update.add_exception_type(asyncpg.PostgresConnectionError)
        self.batch_update.start()

    def cog_unload(self):
        self.batch_update.cancel()

    @tasks.loop(minutes=5.0)
    async def batch_update(self):
        async with self.bot.pool.acquire() as con:
            # batch update here...
            pass

Looping a certain amount of times before exiting:

from disnake.ext import tasks

@tasks.loop(seconds=5.0, count=5)
async def slow_count():
    print(slow_count.current_loop)

@slow_count.after_loop
async def after_slow_count():
    print('done!')

slow_count.start()

Waiting until the bot is ready before the loop starts:

from disnake.ext import tasks, commands

class MyCog(commands.Cog):
    def __init__(self, bot):
        self.index = 0
        self.bot = bot
        self.printer.start()

    def cog_unload(self):
        self.printer.cancel()

    @tasks.loop(seconds=5.0)
    async def printer(self):
        print(self.index)
        self.index += 1

    @printer.before_loop
    async def before_printer(self):
        print('waiting...')
        await self.bot.wait_until_ready()

Doing something during cancellation:

from disnake.ext import tasks, commands
import asyncio

class MyCog(commands.Cog):
    def __init__(self, bot):
        self.bot= bot
        self._batch = []
        self.lock = asyncio.Lock()
        self.bulker.start()

    async def do_bulk(self):
        # bulk insert data here
        ...

    @tasks.loop(seconds=10.0)
    async def bulker(self):
        async with self.lock:
            await self.do_bulk()

    @bulker.after_loop
    async def on_bulker_cancel(self):
        if self.bulker.is_being_cancelled() and len(self._batch) != 0:
            # if we're cancelled and we have some data left...
            # let's insert it to our database
            await self.do_bulk()

class disnake.ext.tasks.Loop

A background task helper that abstracts the loop and reconnection logic for you.

The main interface to create this is through loop().

@after_loop

A decorator that register a coroutine to be called after the loop finished running.

The coroutine must take no arguments (except self in a class context).

Note

This coroutine is called even during cancellation. If it is desirable to tell apart whether something was cancelled or not, check to see whether is_being_cancelled() is True or not.

Parameters:

coro (coroutine) – The coroutine to register after the loop finishes.

Raises:

TypeError – The function was not a coroutine.

@before_loop

A decorator that registers a coroutine to be called before the loop starts running.

This is useful if you want to wait for some bot state before the loop starts, such as disnake.Client.wait_until_ready().

The coroutine must take no arguments (except self in a class context).

Parameters:

coro (coroutine) – The coroutine to register before the loop runs.

Raises:

TypeError – The function was not a coroutine.

@error

A decorator that registers a coroutine to be called if the task encounters an unhandled exception.

The coroutine must take only one argument the exception raised (except self in a class context).

By default this prints to sys.stderr however it could be overridden to have a different implementation.

New in version 1.4.

Parameters:

coro (coroutine) – The coroutine to register in the event of an unhandled exception.

Raises:

TypeError – The function was not a coroutine.

property seconds

Read-only value for the number of seconds between each iteration. None if an explicit time value was passed instead.

New in version 2.0.

Type:

Optional[float]

property minutes

Read-only value for the number of minutes between each iteration. None if an explicit time value was passed instead.

New in version 2.0.

Type:

Optional[float]

property hours

Read-only value for the number of hours between each iteration. None if an explicit time value was passed instead.

New in version 2.0.

Type:

Optional[float]

property time

Read-only list for the exact times this loop runs at. None if relative times were passed instead.

New in version 2.0.

Type:

Optional[List[datetime.time]]

property current_loop

The current iteration of the loop.

Type:

int

property next_iteration

When the next iteration of the loop will occur.

New in version 1.3.

Type:

Optional[datetime.datetime]

await __call__(*args, **kwargs)

This function is a coroutine.

Calls the internal callback that the task holds.

New in version 1.6.

Parameters:

• *args – The arguments to use.

• **kwargs – The keyword arguments to use.

start(*args, **kwargs)

Starts the internal task in the event loop.

Parameters:

• *args – The arguments to use.

• **kwargs – The keyword arguments to use.

Raises:

RuntimeError – A task has already been launched and is running.

Returns:

The task that has been created.

Return type:

asyncio.Task

stop()

Gracefully stops the task from running.

Unlike cancel(), this allows the task to finish its current iteration before gracefully exiting.

Note

If the internal function raises an error that can be handled before finishing then it will retry until it succeeds.

If this is undesirable, either remove the error handling before stopping via clear_exception_types() or use cancel() instead.

New in version 1.2.

cancel()

Cancels the internal task, if it is running.

restart(*args, **kwargs)

A convenience method to restart the internal task.

Note

Due to the way this function works, the task is not returned like start().

Parameters:

• *args – The arguments to use.

• **kwargs – The keyword arguments to use.

add_exception_type(*exceptions)

Adds exception types to be handled during the reconnect logic.

By default the exception types handled are those handled by disnake.Client.connect(), which includes a lot of internet disconnection errors.

This function is useful if you’re interacting with a 3rd party library that raises its own set of exceptions.

Parameters:

*exceptions (Type[BaseException]) – An argument list of exception classes to handle.

Raises:

TypeError – An exception passed is either not a class or not inherited from BaseException.

clear_exception_types()

Removes all exception types that are handled.

Note

This operation obviously cannot be undone!

remove_exception_type(*exceptions)

Removes exception types from being handled during the reconnect logic.

Parameters:

*exceptions (Type[BaseException]) – An argument list of exception classes to handle.

Returns:

Whether all exceptions were successfully removed.

Return type:

bool

get_task()

Fetches the internal task or None if there isn’t one running.

Return type:

Optional[asyncio.Task]

is_being_cancelled()

Whether the task is being cancelled.

Return type:

bool

failed()

Whether the internal task has failed.

New in version 1.2.

Return type:

bool

is_running()

Check if the task is currently running.

New in version 1.4.

Return type:

bool

change_interval(*, seconds=0, minutes=0, hours=0, time=...)

Changes the interval for the sleep time.

New in version 1.2.

Parameters:

• seconds (float) – The number of seconds between every iteration.

• minutes (float) – The number of minutes between every iteration.

• hours (float) – The number of hours between every iteration.

• time (Union[datetime.time, Sequence[datetime.time]]) –

  The exact times to run this loop at. Either a non-empty list or a single value of datetime.time should be passed. This cannot be used in conjunction with the relative time parameters.

  New in version 2.0.

  Note

  Duplicate times will be ignored, and only run once.

Raises:

• ValueError – An invalid value was given.

• TypeError – An invalid value for the time parameter was passed, or the time parameter was passed in conjunction with relative time parameters.

disnake.ext.tasks.loop(cls=disnake.ext.tasks.Loop[~LF], **kwargs)

A decorator that schedules a task in the background for you with optional reconnect logic. The decorator returns a Loop.

Parameters:

• cls (Type[Loop]) –

  The loop subclass to create an instance of. If provided, the following parameters described below do not apply. Instead, this decorator will accept the same keywords as the passed cls does.

  New in version 2.6.

• seconds (float) – The number of seconds between every iteration.

• minutes (float) – The number of minutes between every iteration.

• hours (float) – The number of hours between every iteration.

• time (Union[datetime.time, Sequence[datetime.time]]) –

  The exact times to run this loop at. Either a non-empty list or a single value of datetime.time should be passed. Timezones are supported. If no timezone is given for the times, it is assumed to represent UTC time.

  This cannot be used in conjunction with the relative time parameters.

  Note

  Duplicate times will be ignored, and only run once.

  New in version 2.0.

• count (Optional[int]) – The number of loops to do, None if it should be an infinite loop.

• reconnect (bool) – Whether to handle errors and restart the task using an exponential back-off algorithm similar to the one used in disnake.Client.connect().

• loop (asyncio.AbstractEventLoop) – The loop to use to register the task, if not given defaults to asyncio.get_event_loop().

Raises:

• ValueError – An invalid value was given.

• TypeError – The function was not a coroutine, the cls parameter was not a subclass of Loop, an invalid value for the time parameter was passed, or time parameter was passed in conjunction with relative time parameters.

Manuals

These pages go into great detail about everything the API can do.

API Reference

The following section outlines the API of disnake.

Note

This module uses the Python logging module to log diagnostic and errors in an output independent way. If the logging module is not configured, these logs will not be output anywhere. See Setting Up Logging for more information on how to set up and use the logging module with disnake.

Version Related Info

There are two main ways to query version information about the library. For guarantees, check Version Guarantees.

disnake.version_info

A named tuple that is similar to sys.version_info.

Just like sys.version_info the valid values for releaselevel are ‘alpha’, ‘beta’, ‘candidate’ and ‘final’.

disnake.__version__

A string representation of the version. e.g. '1.0.0rc1'. This is based off of PEP 440.

class disnake.Client(*, asyncio_debug=False, loop=None, shard_id=None, shard_count=None, enable_debug_events=False, enable_gateway_error_handler=True, localization_provider=None, strict_localization=False, gateway_params=None, connector=None, proxy=None, proxy_auth=None, assume_unsync_clock=True, max_messages=1000, application_id=None, heartbeat_timeout=60.0, guild_ready_timeout=2.0, allowed_mentions=None, activity=None, status=None, intents=None, chunk_guilds_at_startup=None, member_cache_flags=None)

Represents a client connection that connects to Discord. This class is used to interact with the Discord WebSocket and API.

A number of options can be passed to the Client.

Parameters:

• max_messages (Optional[int]) –

  The maximum number of messages to store in the internal message cache. This defaults to 1000. Passing in None disables the message cache.

  Changed in version 1.3: Allow disabling the message cache and change the default size to 1000.

• loop (Optional[asyncio.AbstractEventLoop]) – The asyncio.AbstractEventLoop to use for asynchronous operations. Defaults to None, in which case the default event loop is used via asyncio.get_event_loop().

• connector (Optional[aiohttp.BaseConnector]) – The connector to use for connection pooling.

• proxy (Optional[str]) – Proxy URL.

• proxy_auth (Optional[aiohttp.BasicAuth]) – An object that represents proxy HTTP Basic Authorization.

• shard_id (Optional[int]) – Integer starting at 0 and less than shard_count.

• shard_count (Optional[int]) – The total number of shards.

• application_id (int) – The client’s application ID.

• intents (Optional[Intents]) –

  The intents that you want to enable for the session. This is a way of disabling and enabling certain gateway events from triggering and being sent. If not given, defaults to a regularly constructed Intents class.

  New in version 1.5.

• member_cache_flags (MemberCacheFlags) –

  Allows for finer control over how the library caches members. If not given, defaults to cache as much as possible with the currently selected intents.

  New in version 1.5.

• chunk_guilds_at_startup (bool) –

  Indicates if on_ready() should be delayed to chunk all guilds at start-up if necessary. This operation is incredibly slow for large amounts of guilds. The default is True if Intents.members is True.

  New in version 1.5.

• status (Optional[Union[class:str, Status]]) – A status to start your presence with upon logging on to Discord.

• activity (Optional[BaseActivity]) – An activity to start your presence with upon logging on to Discord.

• allowed_mentions (Optional[AllowedMentions]) –

  Control how the client handles mentions by default on every message sent.

  New in version 1.4.

• heartbeat_timeout (float) – The maximum numbers of seconds before timing out and restarting the WebSocket in the case of not receiving a HEARTBEAT_ACK. Useful if processing the initial packets take too long to the point of disconnecting you. The default timeout is 60 seconds.

• guild_ready_timeout (float) –

  The maximum number of seconds to wait for the GUILD_CREATE stream to end before preparing the member cache and firing READY. The default timeout is 2 seconds.

  New in version 1.4.

• assume_unsync_clock (bool) –

  Whether to assume the system clock is unsynced. This applies to the ratelimit handling code. If this is set to True, the default, then the library uses the time to reset a rate limit bucket given by Discord. If this is False then your system clock is used to calculate how long to sleep for. If this is set to False it is recommended to sync your system clock to Google’s NTP server.

  New in version 1.3.

• enable_debug_events (bool) –

  Whether to enable events that are useful only for debugging gateway related information.

  Right now this involves on_socket_raw_receive() and on_socket_raw_send(). If this is False then those events will not be dispatched (due to performance considerations). To enable these events, this must be set to True. Defaults to False.

  New in version 2.0.

• enable_gateway_error_handler (bool) –

  Whether to enable the disnake.on_gateway_error() event. Defaults to True.

  If this is disabled, exceptions that occur while parsing (known) gateway events won’t be handled and the pre-v2.6 behavior of letting the exception propagate up to the connect()/start()/run() call is used instead.

  New in version 2.6.

• test_guilds (List[int]) –

  The list of IDs of the guilds where you’re going to test your application commands. Defaults to None, which means global registration of commands across all guilds.

  New in version 2.1.

• sync_commands (bool) –

  Whether to enable automatic synchronization of application commands in your code. Defaults to True, which means that commands in API are automatically synced with the commands specified in your code.

  New in version 2.1.

• sync_commands_debug (bool) –

  Whether to always show sync debug logs (uses INFO log level if it’s enabled, prints otherwise). If disabled, uses the default DEBUG log level which isn’t shown unless the log level is changed manually. Useful for tracking the commands being registered in the API.

  New in version 2.1.

  Changed in version 2.4: Changes the log level of corresponding messages from DEBUG to INFO or prints them, instead of controlling whether they are enabled at all.

• localization_provider (LocalizationProtocol) –

  An implementation of LocalizationProtocol to use for localization of application commands. If not provided, the default LocalizationStore implementation is used.

  New in version 2.5.

  Changed in version 2.6: Can no longer be provided together with strict_localization, as it does not apply to the custom localization provider entered in this parameter.

• strict_localization (bool) –

  Whether to raise an exception when localizations for a specific key couldn’t be found. This is mainly useful for testing/debugging, consider disabling this eventually as missing localized names will automatically fall back to the default/base name without it. Only applicable if the localization_provider parameter is not provided. Defaults to False.

  New in version 2.5.

  Changed in version 2.6: Can no longer be provided together with localization_provider, as this parameter is ignored for custom localization providers.

• gateway_params (GatewayParams) –

  Allows configuring parameters used for establishing gateway connections, notably enabling/disabling compression (enabled by default). Encodings other than JSON are not supported.

  New in version 2.6.

ws

The websocket gateway the client is currently connected to. Could be None.

loop

The event loop that the client uses for asynchronous operations.

Type:

asyncio.AbstractEventLoop

asyncio_debug

Whether to enable asyncio debugging when the client starts. Defaults to False.

Type:

bool

New in version 2.5.

Type:

LocalizationProtocol

@event

A decorator that registers an event to listen to.

You can find more info about the events on the documentation below.

The events must be a coroutine, if not, TypeError is raised.

Example

@client.event
async def on_ready():
    print('Ready!')

Raises:

TypeError – The coroutine passed is not actually a coroutine.

async for ... in fetch_guilds(*, limit=100, before=None, after=None)

Retrieves an AsyncIterator that enables receiving your guilds.

Note

Using this, you will only receive Guild.owner, Guild.icon, Guild.id, and Guild.name per Guild.

Note

This method is an API call. For general usage, consider guilds instead.

Examples

Usage

async for guild in client.fetch_guilds(limit=150):
    print(guild.name)

Flattening into a list

guilds = await client.fetch_guilds(limit=150).flatten()
# guilds is now a list of Guild...

All parameters are optional.

Parameters:

• limit (Optional[int]) – The number of guilds to retrieve. If None, it retrieves every guild you have access to. Note, however, that this would make it a slow operation. Defaults to 100.

• before (Union[abc.Snowflake, datetime.datetime]) – Retrieves guilds before this date or object. If a datetime is provided, it is recommended to use a UTC aware datetime. If the datetime is naive, it is assumed to be local time.

• after (Union[abc.Snowflake, datetime.datetime]) – Retrieve guilds after this date or object. If a datetime is provided, it is recommended to use a UTC aware datetime. If the datetime is naive, it is assumed to be local time.

Raises:

HTTPException – Retrieving the guilds failed.

Yields:

Guild – The guild with the guild data parsed.

property latency

Measures latency between a HEARTBEAT and a HEARTBEAT_ACK in seconds.

This could be referred to as the Discord WebSocket protocol latency.

By default this prints to sys.stderr however it could be overridden to have a different implementation. Check on_error() for more details.

await on_gateway_error(event, data, shard_id, exc, /)

This function is a coroutine.

The default gateway error handler provided by the client.

By default this prints to sys.stderr however it could be overridden to have a different implementation. Check on_gateway_error() for more details.

New in version 2.6.

Note

Unlike on_error(), the exception is available as the exc parameter and cannot be obtained through sys.exc_info().

await before_identify_hook(shard_id, *, initial=False)

This function is a coroutine.

A hook that is called before IDENTIFYing a session. This is useful if you wish to have more control over the synchronization of multiple IDENTIFYing clients.

The default implementation sleeps for 5 seconds.

New in version 1.4.

Parameters:

• shard_id (int) – The shard ID that requested being IDENTIFY’d

• initial (bool) – Whether this IDENTIFY is the first initial IDENTIFY.

await login(token)

This function is a coroutine.

Logs in the client with the specified credentials.

Parameters:

token (str) – The authentication token. Do not prefix this token with anything as the library will do it for you.

Raises:

• LoginFailure – The wrong credentials are passed.

• HTTPException – An unknown HTTP related error occurred, usually when it isn’t 200 or the known incorrect credentials passing status code.

await connect(*, reconnect=True, ignore_session_start_limit=False)

This function is a coroutine.

Creates a websocket connection and lets the websocket listen to messages from Discord. This is a loop that runs the entire event system and miscellaneous aspects of the library. Control is not resumed until the WebSocket connection is terminated.

Changed in version 2.6: Added usage of SessionStartLimit when connecting to the API. Added the ignore_session_start_limit parameter.

Parameters:

• reconnect (bool) – Whether reconnecting should be attempted, either due to internet failure or a specific failure on Discord’s part. Certain disconnects that lead to bad state will not be handled (such as invalid sharding payloads or bad tokens).

• ignore_session_start_limit (bool) –

  Whether the API provided session start limit should be ignored when connecting to the API.

  New in version 2.6.

Raises:

• GatewayNotFound – If the gateway to connect to Discord is not found. Usually if this is thrown then there is a Discord API outage.

• ConnectionClosed – The websocket connection has been terminated.

• SessionStartLimitReached – If the client doesn’t have enough connects remaining in the current 24-hour window and ignore_session_start_limit is False this will be raised rather than connecting to the gateawy and Discord resetting the token. However, if ignore_session_start_limit is True, the client will connect regardless and this exception will not be raised.

await close()

This function is a coroutine.

Closes the connection to Discord.

clear()

Clears the internal state of the bot.

After this, the bot can be considered “re-opened”, i.e. is_closed() and is_ready() both return False along with the bot’s internal cache cleared.

await start(token, *, reconnect=True, ignore_session_start_limit=False)

This function is a coroutine.

A shorthand coroutine for login() + connect().

Raises:

TypeError – An unexpected keyword argument was received.

run(*args, **kwargs)

A blocking call that abstracts away the event loop initialisation from you.

If you want more control over the event loop then this function should not be used. Use start() coroutine or connect() + login().

Roughly Equivalent to:

try:
    loop.run_until_complete(start(*args, **kwargs))
except KeyboardInterrupt:
    loop.run_until_complete(close())
    # cancel all tasks lingering
finally:
    loop.close()

Warning

This function must be the last function to call due to the fact that it is blocking. That means that registration of events or anything being called after this function call will not execute until it returns.

is_closed()

This could be used to wait for a user to reply to a message, or to react to a message, or to edit a message in a self-contained way.

The timeout parameter is passed onto asyncio.wait_for(). By default, it does not timeout. Note that this does propagate the asyncio.TimeoutError for you in case of timeout and is provided for ease of use.

In case the event returns multiple arguments, a tuple containing those arguments is returned instead. Please check the documentation for a list of events and their parameters.

This function returns the first event that meets the requirements.

Examples

        await channel.send('Say hello!')

        def check(m):
            return m.content == 'hello' and m.channel == channel

        msg = await client.wait_for('message', check=check)
        await channel.send(f'Hello {msg.author}!')

Waiting for a thumbs up reaction from the message author:

@client.event
async def on_message(message):
    if message.content.startswith('$thumb'):
        channel = message.channel
        await channel.send('Send me that 👍 reaction, mate')

        def check(reaction, user):
            return user == message.author and str(reaction.emoji) == '👍'

        try:
            reaction, user = await client.wait_for('reaction_add', timeout=60.0, check=check)

Methods

• asyncchange_presence
• asyncclose
• asyncconnect
• defget_shard
• defis_ws_ratelimited

class disnake.AutoShardedClient(*args, shard_ids=None, **kwargs)

A client similar to Client except it handles the complications of sharding for the user into a more manageable and transparent single process bot.

When using this client, you will be able to use it as-if it was a regular Client with a single shard when implementation wise internally it is split up into multiple shards. This allows you to not have to deal with IPC or other complicated infrastructure.

It is recommended to use this client only if you have surpassed at least 1000 guilds.

If no shard_count is provided, then the library will use the Bot Gateway endpoint call to figure out how many shards to use.

If a shard_ids parameter is given, then those shard IDs will be used to launch the internal shards. Note that shard_count must be provided if this is used. By default, when omitted, the client will launch shards from 0 to shard_count - 1.

shard_ids

An optional list of shard_ids to launch the shards with.

Type:

Optional[List[int]]

property latency

Measures latency between a HEARTBEAT and a HEARTBEAT_ACK in seconds.

This operates similarly to Client.latency() except it uses the average latency of every shard’s latency. To get a list of shard latency, check the latencies property. Returns nan if there are no shards ready.

Type:

float

property latencies

A list of latencies between a HEARTBEAT and a HEARTBEAT_ACK in seconds.

This returns a list of tuples with elements (shard_id, latency).

Type:

List[Tuple[int, float]]

get_shard(shard_id)

Gets the shard information of a given shard ID, or None if not found.

Return type:

Optional[ShardInfo]

property shards

Returns a mapping of shard IDs to their respective info object.

Type:

Mapping[int, ShardInfo]

await connect(*, reconnect=True, ignore_session_start_limit=False)

This function is a coroutine.

Creates a websocket connection and lets the websocket listen to messages from Discord. This is a loop that runs the entire event system and miscellaneous aspects of the library. Control is not resumed until the WebSocket connection is terminated.

Changed in version 2.6: Added usage of SessionStartLimit when connecting to the API. Added the ignore_session_start_limit parameter.

Parameters:

• reconnect (bool) – Whether reconnecting should be attempted, either due to internet failure or a specific failure on Discord’s part. Certain disconnects that lead to bad state will not be handled (such as invalid sharding payloads or bad tokens).

• ignore_session_start_limit (bool) –

  Whether the API provided session start limit should be ignored when connecting to the API.

  New in version 2.6.

Raises:

• GatewayNotFound – If the gateway to connect to Discord is not found. Usually if this is thrown then there is a Discord API outage.

• ConnectionClosed – The websocket connection has been terminated.

• SessionStartLimitReached – If the client doesn’t have enough connects remaining in the current 24-hour window and ignore_session_start_limit is False this will be raised rather than connecting to the gateawy and Discord resetting the token. However, if ignore_session_start_limit is True, the client will connect regardless and this exception will not be raised.

await close()

This function is a coroutine.

Closes the connection to Discord.

await change_presence(*, activity=None, status=None, shard_id=None)

This function is a coroutine.

Changes the client’s presence.

Example:

game = disnake.Game("with the API")
await client.change_presence(status=disnake.Status.idle, activity=game)

Changed in version 2.0: Removed the afk keyword-only parameter.

Changed in version 2.6: Raises TypeError instead of InvalidArgument.

Parameters:

• activity (Optional[BaseActivity]) – The activity being done. None if no currently active activity is done.

• status (Optional[Status]) – Indicates what status to change to. If None, then Status.online is used.

• shard_id (Optional[int]) – The shard_id to change the presence to. If not specified or None, then it will change the presence of every shard the bot can see.

Raises:

TypeError – If the activity parameter is not of proper type.

is_ws_ratelimited()

Whether the websocket is currently rate limited.

This can be useful to know when deciding whether you should query members using HTTP or via the gateway.

This implementation checks if any of the shards are rate limited. For more granular control, consider ShardInfo.is_ws_ratelimited().

New in version 1.6.

If an error happens while the audio player is running, the exception is caught and the audio player is then stopped. If no after callback is passed, any caught exception will be displayed as if it were raised.

Parameters:

• source (AudioSource) – The audio source we’re reading from.

• after (Callable[[Optional[Exception]], Any]) – The finalizer that is called after the stream is exhausted. This function must have a single parameter, error, that denotes an optional exception that was raised during playing.

Raises:

Raises:

• ClientException – You are not connected.

• opus.OpusError – Encoding the data failed.

VoiceProtocol

Methods

• defcleanup
• asyncconnect
• asyncdisconnect
• asyncon_voice_server_update
• asyncon_voice_state_update

class disnake.VoiceProtocol(client, channel)

A class that represents the Discord voice protocol.

This is an abstract class. The library provides a concrete implementation under VoiceClient.

This class allows you to implement a protocol to allow for an external method of sending voice, such as Lavalink or a native library implementation.

These classes are passed to abc.Connectable.connect.

Parameters:

• client (Client) – The client (or its subclasses) that started the connection request.

• channel (abc.Connectable) – The voice channel that is being connected to.

await on_voice_state_update(data)

This function is a coroutine.

An abstract method that is called when the client’s voice state has changed. This corresponds to VOICE_STATE_UPDATE.

Parameters:

data (dict) –

The raw voice state payload.

await on_voice_server_update(data)

This function is a coroutine.

An abstract method that is called when initially connecting to voice. This corresponds to VOICE_SERVER_UPDATE.

Parameters:

data (dict) –

The raw voice server update payload.

await connect(*, timeout, reconnect)

This function is a coroutine.

An abstract method called when the client initiates the connection request.

When a connection is requested initially, the library calls the constructor under __init__ and then calls connect(). If connect() fails at some point then disconnect() is called.

Within this method, to start the voice connection flow it is recommended to use Guild.change_voice_state() to start the flow. After which, on_voice_server_update() and on_voice_state_update() will be called. The order that these two are called is unspecified.

Parameters:

• timeout (float) – The timeout for the connection.

• reconnect (bool) – Whether reconnection is expected.

await disconnect(*, force)

This function is a coroutine.

An abstract method called when the client terminates the connection.

See cleanup().

Parameters:

force (bool) – Whether the disconnection was forced.

cleanup()

This method must be called to ensure proper clean-up during a disconnect.

It is advisable to call this from within disconnect() when you are completely done with the voice protocol instance.

This method removes it from the internal state cache that keeps track of currently alive voice clients. Failure to clean-up will cause subsequent connections to report that it’s still connected.

AudioSource

Methods

• defcleanup
• defis_opus
• defread

class disnake.AudioSource

Represents an audio stream.

The audio stream can be Opus encoded or not, however if the audio stream is not Opus encoded then the audio format must be 16-bit 48KHz stereo PCM.

Warning

The audio source reads are done in a separate thread.

read()

Reads 20ms worth of audio.

Subclasses must implement this.

If the audio is complete, then returning an empty bytes-like object to signal this is the way to do so.

If is_opus() method returns True, then it must return 20ms worth of Opus encoded audio. Otherwise, it must be 20ms worth of 16-bit 48KHz stereo PCM, which is about 3,840 bytes per frame (20ms worth of audio).

Returns:

A bytes like object that represents the PCM or Opus data.

Return type:

bytes

is_opus()

Checks if the audio source is already encoded in Opus.

cleanup()

Called when clean-up is needed to be done.

Useful for clearing buffer data or processes after it is done playing audio.

PCMAudio

Attributes

• stream

Methods

• defread

class disnake.PCMAudio(stream)

Represents raw 16-bit 48KHz stereo PCM audio source.

stream

A file-like object that reads byte data representing raw PCM.

Type:

file object

read()

Reads 20ms worth of audio.

Subclasses must implement this.

If the audio is complete, then returning an empty bytes-like object to signal this is the way to do so.

If is_opus() method returns True, then it must return 20ms worth of Opus encoded audio. Otherwise, it must be 20ms worth of 16-bit 48KHz stereo PCM, which is about 3,840 bytes per frame (20ms worth of audio).

Returns:

A bytes like object that represents the PCM or Opus data.

Return type:

bytes

FFmpegAudio

Methods

• defcleanup

class disnake.FFmpegAudio(source, *, executable='ffmpeg', args, **subprocess_kwargs)

Represents an FFmpeg (or AVConv) based AudioSource.

User created AudioSources using FFmpeg differently from how FFmpegPCMAudio and FFmpegOpusAudio work should subclass this.

New in version 1.3.

cleanup()

Called when clean-up is needed to be done.

Useful for clearing buffer data or processes after it is done playing audio.

FFmpegPCMAudio

Methods

• defis_opus
• defread

class disnake.FFmpegPCMAudio(source, *, executable='ffmpeg', pipe=False, stderr=None, before_options=None, options=None)

An audio source from FFmpeg (or AVConv).

This launches a sub-process to a specific input file given.

Warning

You must have the ffmpeg or avconv executable in your path environment variable in order for this to work.

Parameters:

• source (Union[str, io.BufferedIOBase]) – The input that ffmpeg will take and convert to PCM bytes. If pipe is True then this is a file-like object that is passed to the stdin of ffmpeg.

• executable (str) – The executable name (and path) to use. Defaults to ffmpeg.

• pipe (bool) – If True, denotes that source parameter will be passed to the stdin of ffmpeg. Defaults to False.

• stderr (Optional[file object]) – A file-like object to pass to the Popen constructor. Could also be an instance of subprocess.PIPE.

• before_options (Optional[str]) – Extra command line arguments to pass to ffmpeg before the -i flag.

• options (Optional[str]) – Extra command line arguments to pass to ffmpeg after the -i flag.

Raises:

ClientException – The subprocess failed to be created.

read()

Reads 20ms worth of audio.

Subclasses must implement this.

If the audio is complete, then returning an empty bytes-like object to signal this is the way to do so.

If is_opus() method returns True, then it must return 20ms worth of Opus encoded audio. Otherwise, it must be 20ms worth of 16-bit 48KHz stereo PCM, which is about 3,840 bytes per frame (20ms worth of audio).

Returns:

A bytes like object that represents the PCM or Opus data.

Return type:

bytes

is_opus()

Checks if the audio source is already encoded in Opus.

FFmpegOpusAudio

Methods

• clsFFmpegOpusAudio.from_probe
• clsFFmpegOpusAudio.probe
• defis_opus
• defread

class disnake.FFmpegOpusAudio(source, *, bitrate=128, codec=None, executable='ffmpeg', pipe=False, stderr=None, before_options=None, options=None)

An audio source from FFmpeg (or AVConv).

This launches a sub-process to a specific input file given. However, rather than producing PCM packets like FFmpegPCMAudio does that need to be encoded to Opus, this class produces Opus packets, skipping the encoding step done by the library.

Alternatively, instead of instantiating this class directly, you can use FFmpegOpusAudio.from_probe() to probe for bitrate and codec information. This can be used to opportunistically skip pointless re-encoding of existing Opus audio data for a boost in performance at the cost of a short initial delay to gather the information. The same can be achieved by passing copy to the codec parameter, but only if you know that the input source is Opus encoded beforehand.

New in version 1.3.

Warning

You must have the ffmpeg or avconv executable in your path environment variable in order for this to work.

Parameters:

• source (Union[str, io.BufferedIOBase]) – The input that ffmpeg will take and convert to Opus bytes. If pipe is True then this is a file-like object that is passed to the stdin of ffmpeg.

• bitrate (int) – The bitrate in kbps to encode the output to. Defaults to 128.

• codec (Optional[str]) –

  The codec to use to encode the audio data. Normally this would be just libopus, but is used by FFmpegOpusAudio.from_probe() to opportunistically skip pointlessly re-encoding Opus audio data by passing copy as the codec value. Any values other than copy, opus, or libopus will be considered libopus. Defaults to libopus.

  Warning

  Do not provide this parameter unless you are certain that the audio input is already Opus encoded. For typical use FFmpegOpusAudio.from_probe() should be used to determine the proper value for this parameter.

• executable (str) – The executable name (and path) to use. Defaults to ffmpeg.

• pipe (bool) – If True, denotes that source parameter will be passed to the stdin of ffmpeg. Defaults to False.

• stderr (Optional[file object]) – A file-like object to pass to the Popen constructor. Could also be an instance of subprocess.PIPE.

• before_options (Optional[str]) – Extra command line arguments to pass to ffmpeg before the -i flag.

• options (Optional[str]) – Extra command line arguments to pass to ffmpeg after the -i flag.

Raises:

ClientException – The subprocess failed to be created.

classmethod await from_probe(source, *, method=None, **kwargs)

This function is a coroutine.

A factory method that creates a FFmpegOpusAudio after probing the input source for audio codec and bitrate information.

Examples

Use this function to create an FFmpegOpusAudio instance instead of the constructor:

source = await disnake.FFmpegOpusAudio.from_probe("song.webm")
voice_client.play(source)

If you are on Windows and don’t have ffprobe installed, use the fallback method to probe using ffmpeg instead:

source = await disnake.FFmpegOpusAudio.from_probe("song.webm", method='fallback')
voice_client.play(source)

Using a custom method of determining codec and bitrate:

def custom_probe(source, executable):
    # some analysis code here
    return codec, bitrate

source = await disnake.FFmpegOpusAudio.from_probe("song.webm", method=custom_probe)
voice_client.play(source)

Parameters:

• source – Identical to the source parameter for the constructor.

• method (Optional[Union[str, Callable[str, str]]]) – The probing method used to determine bitrate and codec information. As a string, valid values are native to use ffprobe (or avprobe) and fallback to use ffmpeg (or avconv). As a callable, it must take two string arguments, source and executable. Both parameters are the same values passed to this factory function. executable will default to ffmpeg if not provided as a keyword argument.

• kwargs – The remaining parameters to be passed to the FFmpegOpusAudio constructor, excluding bitrate and codec.

Raises:

• AttributeError – Invalid probe method, must be 'native' or 'fallback'.

• TypeError – Invalid value for probe parameter, must be str or a callable.

Returns:

An instance of this class.

Return type:

FFmpegOpusAudio

classmethod await probe(source, *, method=None, executable=None)

This function is a coroutine.

Probes the input source for bitrate and codec information.

Parameters:

• source – Identical to the source parameter for FFmpegOpusAudio.

• method – Identical to the method parameter for FFmpegOpusAudio.from_probe().

• executable (str) – Identical to the executable parameter for FFmpegOpusAudio.

Raises:

• AttributeError – Invalid probe method, must be 'native' or 'fallback'.

• TypeError – Invalid value for probe parameter, must be str or a callable.

Returns:

A 2-tuple with the codec and bitrate of the input source.

Return type:

Optional[Tuple[Optional[str], Optional[int]]]

read()

Reads 20ms worth of audio.

Subclasses must implement this.

If the audio is complete, then returning an empty bytes-like object to signal this is the way to do so.

If is_opus() method returns True, then it must return 20ms worth of Opus encoded audio. Otherwise, it must be 20ms worth of 16-bit 48KHz stereo PCM, which is about 3,840 bytes per frame (20ms worth of audio).

Returns:

A bytes like object that represents the PCM or Opus data.

Return type:

bytes

is_opus()

Checks if the audio source is already encoded in Opus.

PCMVolumeTransformer

Attributes

• volume

Methods

• defcleanup
• defread

class disnake.PCMVolumeTransformer(original, volume=1.0)

Transforms a previous AudioSource to have volume controls.

This does not work on audio sources that have AudioSource.is_opus() set to True.

Parameters:

• original (AudioSource) – The original AudioSource to transform.

• volume (float) – The initial volume to set it to. See volume for more info.

Raises:

• TypeError – Not an audio source.

• ClientException – The audio source is opus encoded.

property volume

Retrieves or sets the volume as a floating point percentage (e.g. 1.0 for 100%).

cleanup()

Called when clean-up is needed to be done.

Useful for clearing buffer data or processes after it is done playing audio.

read()

Reads 20ms worth of audio.

Subclasses must implement this.

If the audio is complete, then returning an empty bytes-like object to signal this is the way to do so.

If is_opus() method returns True, then it must return 20ms worth of Opus encoded audio. Otherwise, it must be 20ms worth of 16-bit 48KHz stereo PCM, which is about 3,840 bytes per frame (20ms worth of audio).

Returns:

A bytes like object that represents the PCM or Opus data.

Return type:

bytes

Opus Library

disnake.opus.load_opus(name)

Loads the libopus shared library for use with voice.

If this function is not called then the library uses the function ctypes.util.find_library() and then loads that one if available.

Not loading a library and attempting to use PCM based AudioSources will lead to voice not working.

This function propagates the exceptions thrown.

Warning

The bitness of the library must match the bitness of your python interpreter. If the library is 64-bit then your python interpreter must be 64-bit as well. Usually if there’s a mismatch in bitness then the load will throw an exception.

Note

On Windows, this function should not need to be called as the binaries are automatically loaded.

Note

On Windows, the .dll extension is not necessary. However, on Linux the full extension is required to load the library, e.g. libopus.so.1. On Linux however, ctypes.util.find_library() will usually find the library automatically without you having to call this.

Parameters:

name (str) – The filename of the shared library.

disnake.opus.is_loaded()

Function to check if opus lib is successfully loaded either via the ctypes.util.find_library() call of load_opus().

This must return True for voice to work.

Returns:

Indicates if the opus library has been loaded.

Return type:

bool

Event Reference

This section outlines the different types of events listened by Client.

There are two ways to register an event, the first way is through the use of Client.event(). The second way is through subclassing Client and overriding the specific events. For example:

import disnake

class MyClient(disnake.Client):
    async def on_message(self, message):
        if message.author == self.user:
            return

        if message.content.startswith('$hello'):
            await message.channel.send('Hello World!')

If an event handler raises an exception, on_error() will be called to handle it, which defaults to print a traceback and ignoring the exception.

Warning

All the events must be a coroutine. If they aren’t, then you might get unexpected errors. In order to turn a function into a coroutine they must be async def functions.

Client

This section documents events related to Client and its connectivity to Discord.

disnake.on_connect()

Called when the client has successfully connected to Discord. This is not the same as the client being fully prepared, see on_ready() for that.

The warnings on on_ready() also apply.

disnake.on_disconnect()

Called when the client has disconnected from Discord, or a connection attempt to Discord has failed. This could happen either through the internet being disconnected, explicit calls to close, or Discord terminating the connection one way or the other.

This function can be called many times without a corresponding on_connect() call.

disnake.on_error(event, *args, **kwargs)

Usually when an event raises an uncaught exception, a traceback is printed to stderr and the exception is ignored. If you want to change this behaviour and handle the exception for whatever reason yourself, this event can be overridden. Which, when done, will suppress the default action of printing the traceback.

The information of the exception raised and the exception itself can be retrieved with a standard call to sys.exc_info().

If you want exception to propagate out of the Client class you can define an on_error handler consisting of a single empty raise statement. Exceptions raised by on_error will not be handled in any way by Client.

Note

on_error will only be dispatched to Client.event().

It will not be received by Client.wait_for(), or, if used, Bots listeners such as listen() or listener().

Parameters:

• event (str) – The name of the event that raised the exception.

• args – The positional arguments for the event that raised the exception.

• kwargs – The keyword arguments for the event that raised the exception.

disnake.on_gateway_error(event, data, shard_id, exc)

When a (known) gateway event cannot be parsed, a traceback is printed to stderr and the exception is ignored by default. This should generally not happen and is usually either a library issue, or caused by a breaking API change.

To change this behaviour, for example to completely stop the bot, this event can be overridden.

This can also be disabled completely by passing enable_gateway_error_handler=False to the client on initialization, restoring the pre-v2.6 behavior.

New in version 2.6.

Note

on_gateway_error will only be dispatched to Client.event().

It will not be received by Client.wait_for(), or, if used, Bots listeners such as listen() or listener().

Note

This will not be dispatched for exceptions that occur while parsing READY and RESUMED event payloads, as exceptions in these events are considered fatal.

Parameters:

• event (str) – The name of the gateway event that was the cause of the exception, for example MESSAGE_CREATE.

• data (Any) – The raw event payload.

• shard_id (Optional[int]) – The ID of the shard the exception occurred in, if applicable.

• exc (Exception) – The exception that was raised.

disnake.on_ready()

Called when the client is done preparing the data received from Discord. Usually after login is successful and the Client.guilds and co. are filled up.

Warning

This function is not guaranteed to be the first event called. Likewise, this function is not guaranteed to only be called once. This library implements reconnection logic and thus will end up calling this event whenever a RESUME request fails.

disnake.on_resumed()

Parameters:

event_type (str) – The event type from Discord that is received, e.g. 'READY'.

disnake.on_socket_raw_receive(msg)

Called whenever a message is completely received from the WebSocket, before it’s processed and parsed. This event is always dispatched when a complete message is received and the passed data is not parsed in any way.

Note

This is only for the messages sent from the client WebSocket. The voice WebSocket will not trigger this event.

Parameters:

payload – The message that is about to be passed on to the WebSocket library. It can be bytes to denote a binary message or str to denote a regular text message.

This section documents events related to Discord chat messages.

disnake.on_message(message)

Called when a Message is created and sent.

This requires Intents.messages to be enabled.

Warning

Your bot’s own messages and private messages are sent through this event. This can lead cases of ‘recursion’ depending on how your bot was programmed. If you want the bot to not reply to itself, consider checking the user IDs. Note that Bot does not have this problem.

Note

Not all messages will have content. This is a Discord limitation. See the docs of Intents.message_content for more information.

Parameters:

message (Message) – The current message.

disnake.on_message_delete(message)

Called when a message is deleted. If the message is not found in the internal message cache, then this event will not be called. Messages might not be in cache if the message is too old or the client is participating in high traffic guilds.

If this occurs increase the max_messages parameter or use the on_raw_message_delete() event instead.

This requires Intents.messages to be enabled.

Note

Not all messages will have content. This is a Discord limitation. See the docs of Intents.message_content for more information.

Parameters:

message (Message) – The deleted message.

disnake.on_message_edit(before, after)

Called when a Message receives an update event. If the message is not found in the internal message cache, then these events will not be called. Messages might not be in cache if the message is too old or the client is participating in high traffic guilds.

If this occurs increase the max_messages parameter or use the on_raw_message_edit() event instead.

Note

Not all messages will have content. This is a Discord limitation. See the docs of Intents.message_content for more information.

The following non-exhaustive cases trigger this event:

• A message has been pinned or unpinned.

• The message content has been changed.

• The message has received an embed.

  • For performance reasons, the embed server does not do this in a “consistent” manner.

• The message’s embeds were suppressed or unsuppressed.

• A call message has received an update to its participants or ending time.

This requires Intents.messages to be enabled.

Parameters:

• before (Message) – The previous version of the message.

• after (Message) – The current version of the message.

disnake.on_bulk_message_delete(messages)

Called when messages are bulk deleted. If none of the messages deleted are found in the internal message cache, then this event will not be called. If individual messages were not found in the internal message cache, this event will still be called, but the messages not found will not be included in the messages list. Messages might not be in cache if the message is too old or the client is participating in high traffic guilds.

If this occurs increase the max_messages parameter or use the on_raw_bulk_message_delete() event instead.

This requires Intents.messages to be enabled.

Parameters:

messages (List[Message]) – The messages that have been deleted.

disnake.on_raw_message_delete(payload)

Called when a message is deleted. Unlike on_message_delete(), this is called regardless of the message being in the internal message cache or not.

If the message is found in the message cache, it can be accessed via RawMessageDeleteEvent.cached_message

This requires Intents.messages to be enabled.

Parameters:

payload (RawMessageDeleteEvent) – The raw event payload data.

disnake.on_raw_message_edit(payload)

Called when a message is edited. Unlike on_message_edit(), this is called regardless of the state of the internal message cache.

If the message is found in the message cache, it can be accessed via RawMessageUpdateEvent.cached_message. The cached message represents the message before it has been edited. For example, if the content of a message is modified and triggers the on_raw_message_edit() coroutine, the RawMessageUpdateEvent.cached_message will return a Message object that represents the message before the content was modified.

Due to the inherently raw nature of this event, the data parameter coincides with the raw data given by the gateway.

Since the data payload can be partial, care must be taken when accessing stuff in the dictionary. One example of a common case of partial data is when the 'content' key is inaccessible. This denotes an “embed” only edit, which is an edit in which only the embeds are updated by the Discord embed server.

This requires Intents.messages to be enabled.

Parameters:

payload (RawMessageUpdateEvent) – The raw event payload data.

disnake.on_raw_bulk_message_delete(payload)

Called when a bulk delete is triggered. Unlike on_bulk_message_delete(), this is called regardless of the messages being in the internal message cache or not.

If the messages are found in the message cache, they can be accessed via RawBulkMessageDeleteEvent.cached_messages

This requires Intents.messages to be enabled.

Parameters:

payload (RawBulkMessageDeleteEvent) – The raw event payload data.

disnake.on_reaction_add(reaction, user)

Called when a message has a reaction added to it. Similar to on_message_edit(), if the message is not found in the internal message cache, then this event will not be called. Consider using on_raw_reaction_add() instead.

Note

To get the Message being reacted, access it via Reaction.message.

This requires Intents.reactions to be enabled.

Note

This doesn’t require Intents.members within a guild context, but due to Discord not providing updated user information in a direct message it’s required for direct messages to receive this event. Consider using on_raw_reaction_add() if you need this and do not otherwise want to enable the members intent.

Parameters:

• reaction (Reaction) – The current state of the reaction.

• user (Union[Member, User]) – The user who added the reaction.

disnake.on_reaction_remove(reaction, user)

Called when a message has a reaction removed from it. Similar to on_message_edit, if the message is not found in the internal message cache, then this event will not be called.

Note

To get the message being reacted, access it via Reaction.message.

This requires both Intents.reactions and Intents.members to be enabled.

Note

Consider using on_raw_reaction_remove() if you need this and do not want to enable the members intent.

Parameters:

• reaction (Reaction) – The current state of the reaction.

• user (Union[Member, User]) – The user who added the reaction.

disnake.on_reaction_clear(message, reactions)

Called when a message has all its reactions removed from it. Similar to on_message_edit(), if the message is not found in the internal message cache, then this event will not be called. Consider using on_raw_reaction_clear() instead.

This requires Intents.reactions to be enabled.

Parameters:

• message (Message) – The message that had its reactions cleared.

• reactions (List[Reaction]) – The reactions that were removed.

disnake.on_reaction_clear_emoji(reaction)

Called when a message has a specific reaction removed from it. Similar to on_message_edit(), if the message is not found in the internal message cache, then this event will not be called. Consider using on_raw_reaction_clear_emoji() instead.

This requires Intents.reactions to be enabled.

New in version 1.3.

Parameters:

reaction (Reaction) – The reaction that got cleared.

disnake.on_raw_reaction_add(payload)

Called when a message has a reaction added. Unlike on_reaction_add(), this is called regardless of the state of the internal message cache.

This requires Intents.reactions to be enabled.

Parameters:

payload (RawReactionActionEvent) – The raw event payload data.

disnake.on_raw_reaction_remove(payload)

Called when a message has a reaction removed. Unlike on_reaction_remove(), this is called regardless of the state of the internal message cache.

This requires Intents.reactions to be enabled.

Parameters:

payload (RawReactionActionEvent) – The raw event payload data.

disnake.on_raw_reaction_clear(payload)

Called when a message has all its reactions removed. Unlike on_reaction_clear(), this is called regardless of the state of the internal message cache.

This requires Intents.reactions to be enabled.

Parameters:

payload (RawReactionClearEvent) – The raw event payload data.

disnake.on_raw_reaction_clear_emoji(payload)

Called when a message has a specific reaction removed from it. Unlike on_reaction_clear_emoji() this is called regardless of the state of the internal message cache.

This requires Intents.reactions to be enabled.

New in version 1.3.

Parameters:

payload (RawReactionClearEmojiEvent) – The raw event payload data.

disnake.on_typing(channel, user, when)

Called when someone begins typing a message.

The channel parameter can be a abc.Messageable instance, or a ForumChannel. If channel is an abc.Messageable instance, it could be a TextChannel, VoiceChannel, GroupChannel, or DMChannel.

Changed in version 2.5: channel may be a type ForumChannel

If the channel is a TextChannel, ForumChannel, or VoiceChannel then the user parameter is a Member, otherwise it is a User.

If the channel is a DMChannel and the user is not found in the internal user/member cache, then this event will not be called. Consider using on_raw_typing() instead.

This requires Intents.typing and Intents.guilds to be enabled.

Note

This doesn’t require Intents.members within a guild context, but due to Discord not providing updated user information in a direct message it’s required for direct messages to receive this event, if the bot didn’t explicitly open the DM channel in the same session (through User.create_dm(), Client.create_dm(), or indirectly by sending a message to the user). Consider using on_raw_typing() if you need this and do not otherwise want to enable the members intent.

Parameters:

• channel (Union[abc.Messageable, ForumChannel]) – The location where the typing originated from.

• user (Union[User, Member]) – The user that started typing.

• when (datetime.datetime) – When the typing started as an aware datetime in UTC.

This is similar to on_typing() except that it is called regardless of whether Intents.members and Intents.guilds are enabled.

Parameters:

data (RawTypingEvent) – The raw event payload data.

Utility Functions

disnake.utils.find(predicate, seq)

A helper to return the first element found in the sequence that meets the predicate. For example:

member = disnake.utils.find(lambda m: m.name == 'Mighty', channel.guild.members)

would find the first Member whose name is ‘Mighty’ and return it. If an entry is not found, then None is returned.

This is different from filter() due to the fact it stops the moment it finds a valid entry.

Parameters:

• predicate – A function that returns a boolean-like result.

• seq (collections.abc.Iterable) – The iterable to search through.

disnake.utils.get(iterable, **attrs)

A helper that returns the first element in the iterable that meets all the traits passed in attrs. This is an alternative for find().

When multiple attributes are specified, they are checked using logical AND, not logical OR. Meaning they have to meet every attribute passed in and not one of them.

To have a nested attribute search (i.e. search by x.y) then pass in x__y as the keyword argument.

If nothing is found that matches the attributes passed, then None is returned.

Examples

Basic usage:

member = disnake.utils.get(message.guild.members, name='Foo')

Multiple attribute matching:

channel = disnake.utils.get(guild.voice_channels, name='Foo', bitrate=64000)

Nested attribute matching:

channel = disnake.utils.get(client.get_all_channels(), guild__name='Cool', name='general')

Parameters:

• iterable – An iterable to search through.

• **attrs – Keyword arguments that denote attributes to search with.

disnake.utils.snowflake_time(id)

Parameters:

id (int) – The snowflake ID.

Returns:

An aware datetime in UTC representing the creation time of the snowflake.

• permissions (Permissions) – The permissions you’re requesting. If not given then you won’t be requesting any permissions.

• guild (Snowflake) – The guild to pre-select in the authorization screen, if available.

• redirect_uri (str) – An optional valid redirect URI.

• scopes (Iterable[str]) –

  An optional valid list of scopes. Defaults to ('bot',).

disnake.utils.remove_markdown(text, *, ignore_links=True)

disnake.utils.escape_markdown(text, *, as_needed=False, ignore_links=True)

A helper function that escapes Discord’s markdown.

Parameters:

• as_needed (bool) – Whether to escape the markdown characters as needed. This means that it does not escape extraneous characters if it’s not necessary, e.g. **hello** is escaped into \*\*hello** instead of \*\*hello\*\*. Note however that this can open you up to some clever syntax abuse. Defaults to False.

• ignore_links (bool) – Whether to leave links alone when escaping markdown. For example, if a URL in the text contains characters such as _ then it will be left alone. This option is not supported with as_needed. Defaults to True.

Returns:

The text with the markdown special characters escaped with a slash.

Return type:

str

disnake.utils.escape_mentions(text)

A helper function that escapes everyone, here, role, and user mentions.

Async Iterator

Some API functions return an “async iterator”. An async iterator is something that is capable of being used in an async for statement.

These async iterators can be used as follows:

async for elem in channel.history():
    # do stuff with elem here

Certain utilities make working with async iterators easier, detailed below.

class disnake.AsyncIterator

Represents the “AsyncIterator” concept. Note that no such class exists, it is purely abstract.

async for x in y

Iterates over the contents of the async iterator.

await next()

This function is a coroutine.

Advances the iterator by one, if possible. If no more items are found then this raises NoMoreItems.

await get(**attrs)

This function is a coroutine.

Similar to utils.get() except run over the async iterator.

Getting the last message by a user named ‘Dave’ or None:

msg = await channel.history().get(author__name='Dave')

await find(predicate)

This function is a coroutine.

Similar to utils.find() except run over the async iterator.

Unlike utils.find(), the predicate provided can be a coroutine.

Getting the last audit log with a reason or None:

def predicate(event):
    return event.reason is not None

event = await guild.audit_logs().find(predicate)

Parameters:

predicate – The predicate to use. Could be a coroutine.

Returns:

The first element that returns True for the predicate or None.

await flatten()

This function is a coroutine.

Flattens the async iterator into a list with all the elements.

Returns:

A list of every element in the async iterator.

Return type:

list

chunk(max_size)

Collects items into chunks of up to a given maximum size. Another AsyncIterator is returned which collects items into lists of a given size. The maximum chunk size must be a positive integer.

New in version 1.6.

Collecting groups of users:

async for leader, *users in reaction.users().chunk(3):
    ...

Warning

The last chunk collected may not be as large as max_size.

Parameters:

max_size – The size of individual chunks.

Return type:

AsyncIterator

map(func)

This is similar to the built-in map function. Another AsyncIterator is returned that executes the function on every element it is iterating over. This function can either be a regular function or a coroutine.

Creating a content iterator:

def transform(message):
    return message.content

async for content in channel.history().map(transform):
    message_length = len(content)

Parameters:

func – The function to call on every element. Could be a coroutine.

Return type:

AsyncIterator

filter(predicate)

This is similar to the built-in filter function. Another AsyncIterator is returned that filters over the original async iterator. This predicate can be a regular function or a coroutine.

Getting messages by non-bot accounts:

def predicate(message):
    return not message.author.bot

async for elem in channel.history().filter(predicate):
    ...

Parameters:

predicate – The predicate to call on every element. Could be a coroutine.

Return type:

AsyncIterator

class disnake.AuditLogDiff

Represents an audit log “change” object. A change object has dynamic attributes that depend on the type of action being done. Certain actions map to certain attributes being set.

Note that accessing an attribute that does not match the specified action will lead to an attribute error.

To get a list of attributes that have been set, you can iterate over them. To see a list of all possible attributes that could be set based on the action being done, check the documentation for AuditLogAction, otherwise check the documentation below for all attributes that are possible.

class disnake.Webhook

Represents an asynchronous Discord webhook.

Webhooks are a form to send messages to channels in Discord without a bot user or authentication.

There are two main ways to use Webhooks. The first is through the ones received by the library such as Guild.webhooks(), TextChannel.webhooks(), and VoiceChannel.webhooks(). The ones received by the library will automatically be bound using the library’s internal HTTP session.

The second form involves creating a webhook object manually using the from_url() or partial() classmethods.

For example, creating a webhook from a URL and using aiohttp:

from disnake import Webhook
import aiohttp

async def foo():
    async with aiohttp.ClientSession() as session:
        webhook = Webhook.from_url('url-here', session=session)
        await webhook.send('Hello World', username='Foo')

For a synchronous counterpart, see SyncWebhook.

This function is a coroutine.

Sends a message using the webhook.

The content must be a type that can convert to a string through str(content).

To upload a single file, the file parameter should be used with a single File object.

Changed in version 2.6: Raises WebhookTokenMissing instead of InvalidArgument.

Parameters:

• content (Optional[str]) – The content of the message to send.

• username (str) – The username to send with this message. If no username is provided then the default username for the webhook is used.

• tts (bool) – Whether the message should be sent using text-to-speech.

• ephemeral (bool) –

  Whether the message should only be visible to the user. This is only available to WebhookType.application webhooks. If a view is sent with an ephemeral message and it has no timeout set then the timeout is set to 15 minutes.

If no object is passed at all then the defaults given by Client.allowed_mentions are used instead.

  New in version 1.4.

• view (disnake.ui.View) –

  The view to send with the message. You can only send a view if this webhook is not partial and has state attached. A webhook has state attached if the webhook is managed by the library. This cannot be mixed with components.

If the overwrite parameter is None, then the permission overwrites are deleted.

You must have Permissions.manage_roles permission to do this.

Note

This method replaces the old overwrites with the ones given.

Changed in version 2.6: Raises TypeError instead of InvalidArgument.

Examples

Setting allow and deny:

class disnake.abc.Messageable

An ABC that details the common operations on a model that can send messages.

The following classes implement this ABC:

• TextChannel

• DMChannel

• GroupChannel

• User

• Member

• Context

• Thread

• VoiceChannel

• PartialMessageable

async for ... in history(*, limit=100, before=None, after=None, around=None, oldest_first=None)

Returns an AsyncIterator that enables receiving the destination’s message history.

You must have Permissions.read_message_history permission to use this.

Examples

Usage

counter = 0
async for message in channel.history(limit=200):
    if message.author == client.user:
        counter += 1

Flattening into a list:

messages = await channel.history(limit=123).flatten()
# messages is now a list of Message...

All parameters are optional.

Parameters:

• limit (Optional[int]) – The number of messages to retrieve. If None, retrieves every message in the channel. Note, however, that this would make it a slow operation.

• before (Optional[Union[abc.Snowflake, datetime.datetime]]) – Retrieve messages before this date or message. If a datetime is provided, it is recommended to use a UTC aware datetime. If the datetime is naive, it is assumed to be local time.

• after (Optional[Union[abc.Snowflake, datetime.datetime]]) – Retrieve messages after this date or message. If a datetime is provided, it is recommended to use a UTC aware datetime. If the datetime is naive, it is assumed to be local time.

• around (Optional[Union[abc.Snowflake, datetime.datetime]]) – Retrieve messages around this date or message. If a datetime is provided, it is recommended to use a UTC aware datetime. If the datetime is naive, it is assumed to be local time. When using this argument, the maximum limit is 101. Note that if the limit is an even number then this will return at most limit + 1 messages.

• oldest_first (Optional[bool]) – If set to True, return messages in oldest->newest order. Defaults to True if after is specified, otherwise False.

Raises:

• Forbidden – You do not have permissions to get channel message history.

• HTTPException – The request to get message history failed.

Yields:

Message – The message with the message data parsed.

async with typing()

Returns a context manager that allows you to type for an indefinite period of time.

This is useful for denoting long computations in your bot.

Note

This is both a regular context manager and an async context manager. This means that both with and async with work with this.

Example Usage:

async with channel.typing():
    # simulate something heavy
    await asyncio.sleep(10)

await channel.send('done!')

await send(content=None, *, tts=False, embed=None, embeds=None, file=None, files=None, stickers=None, delete_after=None, nonce=None, suppress_embeds=False, allowed_mentions=None, reference=None, mention_author=None, view=None, components=None)

This function is a coroutine.

Sends a message to the destination with the content given.

The content must be a type that can convert to a string through str(content).

At least one of content, embed/embeds, file/files, stickers, components, or view must be provided.

To upload a single file, the file parameter should be used with a single File object. To upload multiple files, the files parameter should be used with a list of File objects. Specifying both parameters will lead to an exception.

To upload a single embed, the embed parameter should be used with a single Embed object. To upload multiple embeds, the embeds parameter should be used with a list of Embed objects. Specifying both parameters will lead to an exception.

Changed in version 2.6: Raises TypeError or ValueError instead of InvalidArgument.

Parameters:

• content (Optional[str]) – The content of the message to send.

• tts (bool) – Whether the message should be sent using text-to-speech.

• embed (Embed) – The rich embed for the content to send. This cannot be mixed with the embeds parameter.

• embeds (List[Embed]) –

  A list of embeds to send with the content. Must be a maximum of 10. This cannot be mixed with the embed parameter.

  New in version 2.0.

• file (File) – The file to upload. This cannot be mixed with the files parameter.

• files (List[File]) – A list of files to upload. Must be a maximum of 10. This cannot be mixed with the file parameter.

• stickers (Sequence[Union[GuildSticker, StickerItem]]) –

  A list of stickers to upload. Must be a maximum of 3.

  New in version 2.0.

• nonce (Union[str, int]) – The nonce to use for sending this message. If the message was successfully sent, then the message will have a nonce with this value.

• delete_after (float) – If provided, the number of seconds to wait in the background before deleting the message we just sent. If the deletion fails, then it is silently ignored.

• allowed_mentions (AllowedMentions) –

  Controls the mentions being processed in this message. If this is passed, then the object is merged with Client.allowed_mentions. The merging behaviour only overrides attributes that have been explicitly passed to the object, otherwise it uses the attributes set in Client.allowed_mentions. If no object is passed at all then the defaults given by Client.allowed_mentions are used instead.

  New in version 1.4.

• reference (Union[Message, MessageReference, PartialMessage]) –

  A reference to the Message to which you are replying, this can be created using Message.to_reference() or passed directly as a Message. You can control whether this mentions the author of the referenced message using the AllowedMentions.replied_user attribute of allowed_mentions or by setting mention_author.

  New in version 1.6.

• mention_author (Optional[bool]) –

  If set, overrides the AllowedMentions.replied_user attribute of allowed_mentions.

  New in version 1.6.

• view (ui.View) –

  A Discord UI View to add to the message. This cannot be mixed with components.

  New in version 2.0.

• components (Union[disnake.ui.ActionRow, disnake.ui.WrappedComponent, List[Union[disnake.ui.ActionRow, disnake.ui.WrappedComponent, List[disnake.ui.WrappedComponent]]]]) –

  A list of components to include in the message. This cannot be mixed with view.

  New in version 2.4.

• suppress_embeds (bool) –

  Whether to suppress embeds for the message. This hides all embeds from the UI if set to True.

  New in version 2.5.

Raises:

• HTTPException – Sending the message failed.

• Forbidden – You do not have the proper permissions to send the message.

• TypeError – Specified both file and files, or you specified both embed and embeds, or you specified both view and components, or the reference object is not a Message, MessageReference or PartialMessage.

• ValueError – The files or embeds list is too large.

Returns:

The message that was sent.

Return type:

Message

await trigger_typing()

This function is a coroutine.

HTTPException – Retrieving the pinned messages failed.

Returns:

The messages that are currently pinned.

Return type:

List[Message]

Connectable

class disnake.abc.Connectable

An ABC that details the common operations on a channel that can connect to a voice server.

The following classes implement this ABC:

• VoiceChannel

• StageChannel

Note

This ABC is not decorated with typing.runtime_checkable(), so will fail isinstance()/issubclass() checks.

Discord Models

Models are classes that are received from Discord and are not meant to be created by the user of the library.

Danger

The classes listed below are not intended to be created by users and are also read-only.

For example, this means that you should not make your own User instances nor should you modify the User instance yourself.

If you want to get one of these model classes instances they’d have to be through the cache, and a common way of doing so is through the utils.find() function or attributes of model classes that you receive from the events specified in the Event Reference.

Note

Nearly all classes here have __slots__ defined which means that it is impossible to have dynamic attributes to the data classes.

await create_text_channel(name, *, reason=None, category=None, position=..., topic=..., slowmode_delay=..., default_auto_archive_duration=..., nsfw=..., news=..., overwrites=...)

This function is a coroutine.

Creates a TextChannel for the guild.

You need manage_channels permission to create the channel.

channel = await guild.create_text_channel('cool-channel')

Creating a “secret” channel:

overwrites = {
    guild.default_role: disnake.PermissionOverwrite(view_channel=False),
    guild.me: disnake.PermissionOverwrite(view_channel=True)
}

channel = await guild.create_text_channel('secret', overwrites=overwrites)

Parameters:

Edits the original, previously sent interaction response message.

This is a lower level interface to InteractionMessage.edit() in case you do not want to fetch the message and save an HTTP request.

This method is also the only way to edit the original response if the message sent was ephemeral.

Note

If the original response message has embeds with images that were created from local files (using the file parameter with Embed.set_image() or Embed.set_thumbnail()), those images will be removed if the message’s attachments are edited in any way (i.e. by setting file/files/attachments, or adding an embed with local files).

Changed in version 2.6: This function was renamed from edit_original_message.

Parameters:

• content (Optional[str]) – The content to edit the message with, or None to clear it.

• embed (Optional[Embed]) – The new embed to replace the original with. This cannot be mixed with the embeds parameter. Could be None to remove the embed.

• embeds (List[Embed]) – The new embeds to replace the original with. Must be a maximum of 10. This cannot be mixed with the embed parameter. To remove all embeds [] should be passed.

• file (File) – The file to upload. This cannot be mixed with the files parameter. Files will be appended to the message, see the attachments parameter to remove/replace existing files.

• files (List[File]) – A list of files to upload. This cannot be mixed with the file parameter. Files will be appended to the message, see the attachments parameter to remove/replace existing files.

• attachments (Optional[List[Attachment]]) –

  A list of attachments to keep in the message. If [] or None is passed then all existing attachments are removed. Keeps existing attachments if not provided.

  New in version 2.2.

  Changed in version 2.5: Supports passing None to clear attachments.

• view (Optional[View]) – The updated view to update this message with. This cannot be mixed with components. If None is passed then the view is removed.

  A list of components to update this message with. This cannot be mixed with view. If None is passed then the components are removed.

  New in version 2.4.

• allowed_mentions (AllowedMentions) – Controls the mentions being processed in this message. See abc.Messageable.send() for more information.

Raises:

• HTTPException – Editing the message failed.

• Forbidden – Edited a message that is not yours.

Returns:

The newly edited message.

Return type:

InteractionMessage

await delete_original_response(*, delay=None)

This function is a coroutine.

Deletes the original interaction response message.

This is a lower level interface to InteractionMessage.delete() in case you do not want to fetch the message and save an HTTP request.

Changed in version 2.6: This function was renamed from delete_original_message.

Parameters:

delay (float) – If provided, the number of seconds to wait in the background before deleting the original response message. If the deletion fails, then it is silently ignored.

Raises:

• HTTPException – Deleting the message failed.

• Forbidden – Deleted a message that is not yours.

await send(content=None, *, embed=..., embeds=..., file=..., files=..., allowed_mentions=..., view=..., components=..., tts=False, ephemeral=False, suppress_embeds=False, delete_after=...)

This function is a coroutine.

Sends a message using either response.send_message or followup.send.

If the interaction hasn’t been responded to yet, this method will call response.send_message. Otherwise, it will call followup.send.

Note

This method does not return a Message object. If you need a message object, use original_response() to fetch it, or use followup.send directly instead of this method if you’re sending a followup message.

Parameters:

• content (Optional[str]) – The content of the message to send.

• embed (Embed) – The rich embed for the content to send. This cannot be mixed with the embeds parameter.

• embeds (List[Embed]) – A list of embeds to send with the content. Must be a maximum of 10. This cannot be mixed with the embed parameter.

• files (List[File]) – A list of files to upload. Must be a maximum of 10. This cannot be mixed with the file parameter.

• allowed_mentions (AllowedMentions) – Controls the mentions being processed in this message. If this is passed, then the object is merged with Client.allowed_mentions. The merging behaviour only overrides attributes that have been explicitly passed to the object, otherwise it uses the attributes set in Client.allowed_mentions. If no object is passed at all then the defaults given by Client.allowed_mentions are used instead.

• tts (bool) – Whether the message should be sent using text-to-speech.

• view (disnake.ui.View) – The view to send with the message. This cannot be mixed with components.

• components (Union[disnake.ui.ActionRow, disnake.ui.WrappedComponent, List[Union[disnake.ui.ActionRow, disnake.ui.WrappedComponent, List[disnake.ui.WrappedComponent]]]]) –

  A list of components to send with the message. This cannot be mixed with view.

  New in version 2.4.

• ephemeral (bool) – Whether the message should only be visible to the user who started the interaction. If a view is sent with an ephemeral message and it has no timeout set then the timeout is set to 15 minutes.

• suppress_embeds (bool) –

  Whether to suppress embeds for the message. This hides all embeds from the UI if set to True.

  New in version 2.5.

• delete_after (float) – If provided, the number of seconds to wait in the background before deleting the message we just sent. If the deletion fails, then it is silently ignored.

Raises:

• HTTPException – Sending the message failed.

• TypeError – You specified both embed and embeds.

GuildCommandInteraction

class disnake.GuildCommandInteraction

An ApplicationCommandInteraction subclass, primarily meant for annotations.

This prevents the command from being invoked in DMs by automatically setting ApplicationCommand.dm_permission to False for user/message commands and top-level slash commands.

Note that this does not apply to slash subcommands, subcommand groups, or autocomplete callbacks.

Additionally, annotations of some attributes are modified to match the expected types in guilds.

UserCommandInteraction

class disnake.UserCommandInteraction

An ApplicationCommandInteraction subclass meant for annotations.

No runtime behavior is changed but annotations are modified to seem like the interaction is specifically a user command.

MessageCommandInteraction

class disnake.MessageCommandInteraction

An ApplicationCommandInteraction subclass meant for annotations.

No runtime behavior is changed but annotations are modified to seem like the interaction is specifically a message command.

Examples

Usage

counter = 0
async for message in channel.history(limit=200):
    if message.author == client.user:
        counter += 1

Flattening into a list:

messages = await channel.history(limit=123).flatten()
# messages is now a list of Message...

All parameters are optional.

Parameters:

• limit (Optional[int]) – The number of messages to retrieve. If None, retrieves every message in the channel. Note, however, that this would make it a slow operation.

• before (Optional[Union[abc.Snowflake, datetime.datetime]]) – Retrieve messages before this date or message. If a datetime is provided, it is recommended to use a UTC aware datetime. If the datetime is naive, it is assumed to be local time.

• after (Optional[Union[abc.Snowflake, datetime.datetime]]) – Retrieve messages after this date or message. If a datetime is provided, it is recommended to use a UTC aware datetime. If the datetime is naive, it is assumed to be local time.

• around (Optional[Union[abc.Snowflake, datetime.datetime]]) – Retrieve messages around this date or message. If a datetime is provided, it is recommended to use a UTC aware datetime. If the datetime is naive, it is assumed to be local time. When using this argument, the maximum limit is 101. Note that if the limit is an even number then this will return at most limit + 1 messages.

• oldest_first (Optional[bool]) – If set to True, return messages in oldest->newest order. Defaults to True if after is specified, otherwise False.

Raises:

• Forbidden – You do not have permissions to get channel message history.

• HTTPException – The request to get message history failed.

Yields:

Message – The message with the message data parsed.

Flattening into a list:

messages = await channel.history(limit=123).flatten()
# messages is now a list of Message...

All parameters are optional.

Parameters:

• limit (Optional[int]) – The number of messages to retrieve. If None, retrieves every message in the channel. Note, however, that this would make it a slow operation.

• before (Optional[Union[abc.Snowflake, datetime.datetime]]) – Retrieve messages before this date or message. If a datetime is provided, it is recommended to use a UTC aware datetime. If the datetime is naive, it is assumed to be local time.

• after (Optional[Union[abc.Snowflake, datetime.datetime]]) – Retrieve messages after this date or message. If a datetime is provided, it is recommended to use a UTC aware datetime. If the datetime is naive, it is assumed to be local time.

• around (Optional[Union[abc.Snowflake, datetime.datetime]]) – Retrieve messages around this date or message. If a datetime is provided, it is recommended to use a UTC aware datetime. If the datetime is naive, it is assumed to be local time. When using this argument, the maximum limit is 101. Note that if the limit is an even number then this will return at most limit + 1 messages.

• oldest_first (Optional[bool]) – If set to True, return messages in oldest->newest order. Defaults to True if after is specified, otherwise False.

Raises:

• Forbidden – You do not have permissions to get channel message history.

Raises:

HTTPException – Retrieving the pinned messages failed.

Returns:

The messages that are currently pinned.

Return type:

List[Message]

await send(content=None, *, tts=False, embed=None, embeds=None, file=None, files=None, stickers=None, delete_after=None, nonce=None, suppress_embeds=False, allowed_mentions=None, reference=None, mention_author=None, view=None, components=None)

This function is a coroutine.

Sends a message to the destination with the content given.

The content must be a type that can convert to a string through str(content).

At least one of content, embed/embeds, file/files, stickers, components, or view must be provided.

To upload a single file, the file parameter should be used with a single File object. To upload multiple files, the files parameter should be used with a list of File objects. Specifying both parameters will lead to an exception.

To upload a single embed, the embed parameter should be used with a single Embed object. To upload multiple embeds, the embeds parameter should be used with a list of Embed objects. Specifying both parameters will lead to an exception.

Changed in version 2.6: Raises TypeError or ValueError instead of InvalidArgument.

Parameters:

• content (Optional[str]) – The content of the message to send.

• tts (bool) – Whether the message should be sent using text-to-speech.

• embed (Embed) – The rich embed for the content to send. This cannot be mixed with the embeds parameter.

• delete_after (float) – If provided, the number of seconds to wait in the background before deleting the message we just sent. If the deletion fails, then it is silently ignored.

• allowed_mentions (AllowedMentions) –

  Controls the mentions being processed in this message. If this is passed, then the object is merged with Client.allowed_mentions. The merging behaviour only overrides attributes that have been explicitly passed to the object, otherwise it uses the attributes set in Client.allowed_mentions. If no object is passed at all then the defaults given by Client.allowed_mentions are used instead.

  New in version 1.4.

• reference (Union[Message, MessageReference, PartialMessage]) –

  A reference to the Message to which you are replying, this can be created using Message.to_reference() or passed directly as a Message. You can control whether this mentions the author of the referenced message using the AllowedMentions.replied_user attribute of allowed_mentions or by setting mention_author.

  New in version 1.6.

• mention_author (Optional[bool]) –

  If set, overrides the AllowedMentions.replied_user attribute of allowed_mentions.

• TypeError – Specified both file and files, or you specified both embed and embeds, or you specified both view and components, or the reference object is not a Message, MessageReference or PartialMessage.

• ValueError – The files or embeds list is too large.

Returns:

The message that was sent.

Return type:

Message

await trigger_typing()

This function is a coroutine.

Triggers a typing indicator to the destination.

Typing indicator will go away after 10 seconds, or after a message is sent.

typing()

Examples

Usage

counter = 0
async for message in channel.history(limit=200):

Flattening into a list:

messages = await channel.history(limit=123).flatten()
# messages is now a list of Message...

All parameters are optional.

Parameters:

• limit (Optional[int]) – The number of messages to retrieve. If None, retrieves every message in the channel. Note, however, that this would make it a slow operation.

• after (Optional[Union[abc.Snowflake, datetime.datetime]]) – Retrieve messages after this date or message. If a datetime is provided, it is recommended to use a UTC aware datetime. If the datetime is naive, it is assumed to be local time.

• around (Optional[Union[abc.Snowflake, datetime.datetime]]) – Retrieve messages around this date or message. If a datetime is provided, it is recommended to use a UTC aware datetime. If the datetime is naive, it is assumed to be local time. When using this argument, the maximum limit is 101. Note that if the limit is an even number then this will return at most limit + 1 messages.

• oldest_first (Optional[bool]) – If set to True, return messages in oldest->newest order. Defaults to True if after is specified, otherwise False.

Raises:

• Forbidden – You do not have permissions to get channel message history.

• HTTPException – The request to get message history failed.

Yields:

Message – The message with the message data parsed.

permissions_for(obj, /, *, ignore_timeout=...)

Handles permission resolution for the Member or Role.

Since threads do not have their own permissions, they inherit them from the parent channel. This is a convenience method for calling permissions_for() on the parent channel.

await delete_messages(messages)

This function is a coroutine.

Deletes a list of messages. This is similar to Message.delete() except it bulk deletes multiple messages.

As a special case, if the number of messages is 0, then nothing is done. If the number of messages is 1 then single message delete is done. If it’s more than two, then bulk delete is used.

You cannot bulk delete more than 100 messages or messages that are older than 14 days old.

You must have the manage_messages permission to use this.

Usable only by bot accounts.

Parameters:

messages (Iterable[abc.Snowflake]) – An iterable of messages denoting which ones to bulk delete.

Raises:

• ClientException – The number of messages to delete was more than 100.

• Forbidden – You do not have proper permissions to delete the messages or you’re not using a bot account.

• NotFound – If single delete, then the message was already deleted.

• HTTPException – Deleting the messages failed.

await purge(*, limit=100, check=..., before=None, after=None, around=None, oldest_first=False, bulk=True)

This function is a coroutine.

Purges a list of messages that meet the criteria given by the predicate check. If a check is not provided then all messages are deleted without discrimination.

You must have the manage_messages permission to delete messages even if they are your own (unless you are a user account). The read_message_history permission is also needed to retrieve message history.

Examples

Deleting bot’s messages

def is_me(m):
    return m.author == client.user

deleted = await thread.purge(limit=100, check=is_me)
await thread.send(f'Deleted {len(deleted)} message(s)')

Parameters:

• limit (Optional[int]) – The number of messages to search through. This is not the number of messages that will be deleted, though it can be.

• check (Callable[[Message], bool]) – The function used to check if a message should be deleted. It must take a Message as its sole parameter.

• before (Optional[Union[abc.Snowflake, datetime.datetime]]) – Same as before in history().

• after (Optional[Union[abc.Snowflake, datetime.datetime]]) – Same as after in history().

• around (Optional[Union[abc.Snowflake, datetime.datetime]]) – Same as around in history().

• oldest_first (Optional[bool]) – Same as oldest_first in history().

• bulk (bool) – If True, use bulk delete. Setting this to False is useful for mass-deleting a bot’s own messages without Permissions.manage_messages. When True, will fall back to single delete if messages are older than two weeks.

Raises:

• Forbidden – You do not have proper permissions to do the actions required.

• HTTPException – Purging the messages failed.

Returns:

The list of messages that were deleted.

Return type:

List[Message]

• Guild roles

• Channel overrides

• Member overrides

• Timeouts

If a Role is passed, then it checks the permissions someone with that role would have, which is essentially:

• The default role permissions

• The permissions of the role used as a parameter

• The default role permission overwrites

• The permission overwrites of the role used as a parameter

Changed in version 2.0: The object passed in can now be a role object.

Parameters:

• obj (Union[Member, Role]) – The object to resolve permissions for. This could be either a member or a role. If it’s a role then member overwrites are not computed.

• ignore_timeout (bool) –

  Whether or not to ignore the user’s timeout. Defaults to False.

The target parameter should either be a Member or a Role that belongs to guild.

The overwrite parameter, if given, must either be None or PermissionOverwrite. For convenience, you can pass in keyword arguments denoting Permissions attributes. If this is done, then you cannot mix the keyword arguments with the overwrite parameter.

If the overwrite parameter is None, then the permission overwrites are deleted.

You must have Permissions.manage_roles permission to do this.

Note

This method replaces the old overwrites with the ones given.

Changed in version 2.6: Raises TypeError instead of InvalidArgument.

Examples

Setting allow and deny:

await message.channel.set_permissions(message.author, view_channel=True,
                                                      send_messages=False)

• allowed_mentions (AllowedMentions) –

  Controls the mentions being processed in this message. If this is passed, then the object is merged with Client.allowed_mentions. The merging behaviour only overrides attributes that have been explicitly passed to the object, otherwise it uses the attributes set in Client.allowed_mentions. If no object is passed at all then the defaults given by Client.allowed_mentions are used instead.

  New in version 1.4.

• reference (Union[Message, MessageReference, PartialMessage]) –

  A reference to the Message to which you are replying, this can be created using Message.to_reference() or passed directly as a Message.

Data Classes

Some classes are just there to be data containers, this lists them.

Unlike models you are allowed to create most of these yourself, even if they can also be used to hold attributes.

Nearly all classes here have __slots__ defined which means that it is impossible to have dynamic attributes to the data classes.

The only exception to this rule is Object, which is made with dynamic attributes in mind.

Object

Attributes

• created_at
• id

class disnake.Object(id)

Represents a generic Discord object.

The purpose of this class is to allow you to create ‘miniature’ versions of data classes if you want to pass in just an ID. Most functions that take in a specific data class with an ID can also take in this class as a substitute instead. Note that even though this is the case, not all objects (if any) actually inherit from this class.

There are also some cases where some websocket events are received in strange order and when such events happened you would receive this class rather than the actual data class. These cases are extremely rare.

x == y

Checks if two objects are equal.

x != y

Checks if two objects are not equal.

hash(x)

Returns the object’s hash.

id

The ID of the object.

Type:

int

property created_at

Returns the snowflake’s creation time in UTC.

Type:

datetime.datetime

MemberCacheFlags

Attributes

• joined
• value
• voice

Methods

• clsMemberCacheFlags.all
• clsMemberCacheFlags.from_intents
• clsMemberCacheFlags.none

class disnake.MemberCacheFlags(**kwargs)

Controls the library’s cache policy when it comes to members.

This allows for finer grained control over what members are cached. Note that the bot’s own member is always cached. This class is passed to the member_cache_flags parameter in Client.

Due to a quirk in how Discord works, in order to ensure proper cleanup of cache resources it is recommended to have Intents.members enabled. Otherwise the library cannot know when a member leaves a guild and is thus unable to cleanup after itself.

To construct an object you can pass keyword arguments denoting the flags to enable or disable. Arguments are applied in order, similar to Permissions.

The default value is all flags enabled.

class disnake.Permissions(permissions=0, **kwargs)

Wraps up the Discord permission value.

The properties provided are two way. You can set and retrieve individual bits using the properties as if they were regular bools. This allows you to edit permissions.

To construct an object you can pass keyword arguments denoting the permissions to enable or disable. Arguments are applied in order, which notably also means that supplying a flag and its alias will make whatever comes last overwrite the first one; as an example, Permissions(external_emojis=True, use_external_emojis=False) and Permissions(use_external_emojis=True, external_emojis=False) both result in the same permissions value (0).

Changed in version 1.3: You can now use keyword arguments to initialize Permissions similar to update().

x == y

x != y

Checks if two permissions are not equal.

x <= y

Checks if a permission is a subset of another permission.

Bot UI Kit

The library has helpers to help create component-based UIs.

View

Attributes

• children
• timeout

Methods

• clsView.from_message
• defadd_item
• defclear_items
• asyncinteraction_check
• defis_dispatching
• defis_finished
• defis_persistent
• asyncon_error
• asyncon_timeout
• defremove_item

• asyncwait

class disnake.ui.View(*, timeout=180.0)

Represents a UI view.

This object must be inherited to create a UI within Discord.

Alternatively, components can be handled with disnake.ui.ActionRows and event listeners for a more low-level approach. Relevant events are disnake.on_button_click(), disnake.on_dropdown(), and the more generic disnake.on_message_interaction().

New in version 2.0.

Parameters:

timeout (Optional[float]) – Timeout in seconds from last interaction with the UI before no longer accepting input. If None then there is no timeout.

timeout

Timeout from last interaction with the UI before no longer accepting input. If None then there is no timeout.

Type:

Optional[float]

children

The list of children attached to this view.

Type:

List[Item]

classmethod from_message(message, /, *, timeout=180.0)

Converts a message’s components into a View.

The Message.components of a message are read-only and separate types from those in the disnake.ui namespace. In order to modify and edit message components they must be converted into a View first.

Parameters:

• message (disnake.Message) – The message with components to convert into a view.

• timeout (Optional[float]) – The timeout of the converted view.

Returns:

The converted view. This always returns a View and not one of its subclasses.

Return type:

View

add_item(item)

Adds an item to the view.

This function returns the class instance to allow for fluent-style chaining.

Parameters:

item (Item) – The item to add to the view.

Raises:

• TypeError – An Item was not passed.

• ValueError – Maximum number of children has been exceeded (25) or the row the item is trying to be added to is full.

remove_item(item)

Removes an item from the view.

This function returns the class instance to allow for fluent-style chaining.

Parameters:

item (Item) – The item to remove from the view.

clear_items()

Removes all items from the view.

This function returns the class instance to allow for fluent-style chaining.

await interaction_check(interaction)

This function is a coroutine.

A callback that is called when an interaction happens within the view that checks whether the view should process item callbacks for the interaction.

This is useful to override if, for example, you want to ensure that the interaction author is a given user.

The default implementation of this returns True.

Note

If an exception occurs within the body then the check is considered a failure and on_error() is called.

Parameters:

interaction (MessageInteraction) – The interaction that occurred.

Returns:

Whether the view children’s callbacks should be called.

Return type:

bool

await on_timeout()

This function is a coroutine.

A callback that is called when a view’s timeout elapses without being explicitly stopped.

await on_error(error, item, interaction)

This function is a coroutine.

A callback that is called when an item’s callback or interaction_check() fails with an error.

The default implementation prints the traceback to stderr.

Parameters:

• error (Exception) – The exception that was raised.

• item (Item) – The item that failed the dispatch.

• interaction (MessageInteraction) – The interaction that led to the failure.

stop()

Stops listening to interaction events from this view.

This operation cannot be undone.

is_finished()

Whether the view has finished interacting.

Return type:

bool

is_dispatching()

Whether the view has been added for dispatching purposes.

Return type:

bool

is_persistent()

Whether the view is set up as persistent.

A persistent view has all their components with a set custom_id and a timeout set to None.

Return type:

bool

await wait()

Waits until the view has finished interacting.

A view is considered finished when stop() is called or it times out.

Returns:

If True, then the view timed out. If False then the view finished normally.

Return type:

bool

x[i]

Returns the component at position i. Also supports slices.

New in version 2.6.

len(x)

Returns the number of components in this row.

New in version 2.6.

iter(x)

Returns an iterator for the components in this row.

New in version 2.6.

To handle interactions created by components sent in action rows or entirely independently, event listeners must be used. For buttons and selects, the related events are disnake.on_button_click() and disnake.on_dropdown(), respectively. Alternatively, disnake.on_message_interaction() can be used for either. For modals, the related event is disnake.on_modal_submit().

New in version 2.4.

Changed in version 2.6: Requires and provides stricter typing for contained components.

Parameters:

*components (WrappedComponent) –

The components of this action row.

Changed in version 2.6: Components can now be either valid in the context of a message, or in the context of a modal. Combining components from both contexts is not supported.

property children

Sequence[WrappedComponent]: A read-only copy of the UI components stored in this action row. To add/remove components to/from the action row, use its methods to directly modify it.

Changed in version 2.6: Returns an immutable sequence instead of a list.

This function returns the class instance to allow for fluent-style chaining.

Parameters:

item (WrappedComponent) – The component to append to the action row.

Raises:

ValueError – The width of the action row exceeds 5.

insert_item(index, item)

ValueError – The width of the action row exceeds 5.

add_button(index=None, *, style=<ButtonStyle.secondary: 2>, label=None, disabled=False, custom_id=None, url=None, emoji=None)

Add a button to the action row. Can only be used if the action row holds message components.

To append a pre-existing Button use the append_item() method instead.

This function returns the class instance to allow for fluent-style chaining.

Changed in version 2.6: Now allows for inserting at a given index. The default behaviour of appending is preserved.

Parameters:

• index (int) – The index at which to insert the button into the action row. If not provided, this method defaults to appending the button to the action row.

• style (ButtonStyle) – The style of the button.

• custom_id (Optional[str]) – The ID of the button that gets received during an interaction. If this button is for a URL, it does not have a custom ID.

To append a pre-existing Select use the append_item() method instead.

This function returns the class instance to allow for fluent-style chaining.

Parameters:

• custom_id (str) – The ID of the select menu that gets received during an interaction. If not given then one is generated for you.

• placeholder (Optional[str]) – The placeholder text that is shown if nothing is selected, if any.

• min_values (int) – The minimum number of items that must be chosen for this select menu. Defaults to 1 and must be between 1 and 25.

• options (Union[List[disnake.SelectOption], List[str], Dict[str, str]]) – A list of options that can be selected in this menu. Use explicit SelectOptions for fine-grained control over the options. Alternatively, a list of strings will be treated as a list of labels, and a dict will be treated as a mapping of labels to values.

• disabled (bool) – Whether the select is disabled or not.

Raises:

ValueError – The width of the action row exceeds 5.

add_text_input(*, label, custom_id, style=<TextInputStyle.short: 1>, placeholder=None, value=None, required=True, min_length=None, max_length=None)

• disnake.ui.TextInput

New in version 2.4.

Button

Attributes

• custom_id
• disabled
• emoji
• label

disnake.ui.button(cls=disnake.ui.Button, *, style=ButtonStyle.secondary, label=None, disabled=False, custom_id=..., url=None, emoji=None, row=None)

A decorator that attaches a button to a component.

The function being decorated should have three parameters, self representing the disnake.ui.View, the disnake.ui.Button being pressed and the disnake.MessageInteraction you receive.

Note

Buttons with a URL cannot be created with this function. Consider creating a Button manually instead. This is because buttons with a URL do not have a callback associated with them since Discord does not do any processing with it.

Parameters:

• cls (Type[Button]) –

  The button subclass to create an instance of. If provided, the following parameters described below do no apply. Instead, this decorator will accept the same keywords as the passed cls does.

  New in version 2.6.

• label (Optional[str]) – The label of the button, if any.

• custom_id (Optional[str]) – The ID of the button that gets received during an interaction. It is recommended not to set this parameter to prevent conflicts.

Exactly one of key or data must be provided.

There is an alias for this called Localised.

New in version 2.5.

Parameters:

• string (Optional[str]) – The default (non-localized) value of the string. Whether this is optional or not depends on the localized parameter type.

• key (str) – A localization key used for lookups. Incompatible with data.

• data (Union[Dict[Locale, str], Dict[str, str]]) – A mapping of locales to localized values. Incompatible with key.

LocalizationValue

class disnake.LocalizationValue(localizations)

abstractmethod get(key)

Returns localizations for the specified key.

Parameters:

key (str) – The lookup key.

Raises:

LocalizationKeyError – May be raised if no localizations for the provided key were found, depending on the implementation.

Returns:

The localizations for the provided key. May return None if no localizations could be found.

Return type:

Optional[Dict[str, str]]

load(path)

Parameters:

path (Union[str, os.PathLike]) – The path to the file/directory to load.

Raises:

RuntimeError – The provided path is invalid or couldn’t be loaded

reload()

Clears localizations and reloads all previously loaded sources again. If an exception occurs, the previous data gets restored and the exception is re-raised.

LocalizationStore

v2.5.0

This version adds support for API v10 (which comes with a few breaking changes), forum channels, localizations, permissions v2, improves API coverage by adding support for previously missing features like guild previews, widgets, or welcome screens, and contains several miscellaneous enhancements and bugfixes.

Regarding the message content intent: Note that earlier versions will continue working fine after the message content intent deadline (August 31st 2022), as long as the intent is enabled in the developer portal. However, from this version (2.5.0) onward, the intent needs to be enabled in the developer portal and your code. See this page of the guide for more information. If you do not have access to the intent yet, you can temporarily continue using API v9 by calling disnake.http._workaround_set_api_version(9) before connecting, which will keep sending message content before the intent deadline, even with the intent disabled.

Breaking Changes

• The message_content intent is now required to receive message content and related fields, see above (#353)

• The new permissions v2 system revamped application command permissions, with the most notable changes being the removal of default_permission and commands.guild_permissions in favor of new fields/methods - see below for all new changes (#405)

• TextChannel.create_thread() now requires either a message or a type parameter (#355)

• GuildScheduledEvent.fetch_users() and Guild.bans() now return an async iterator instead of a list of users (#428, #442)

• Guild.audit_logs() no longer supports the oldest_first parameter (#473)

• Store channels have been removed as they’re not supported by Discord any longer (#438)

• on_thread_join() will no longer be invoked when a new thread is created, see on_thread_create() (#445)

• The voice region enum was replaced with a generic VoiceRegion data class (#477)

• locale attributes are now of type Locale instead of str (#439)

• Invite.revoked and Thread.archiver_id have been removed (deprecated in 2.4) (#455)

• Slash command names and option names are no longer automatically converted to lowercase, an InvalidArgument exception is now raised instead (#422)

• The interaction parameter of ui.Item.callback() can no longer be passed as a kwarg (#311)

• The youtube, awkword and sketchy_artist PartyTypes no longer work and have been removed (#408, #409)

• Trying to defer an interaction response that does not support deferring (e.g. autocomplete) will now raise a TypeError (#505)

• [ext.commands] Failure to convert an input parameter annotated as LargeInt now raises a LargeIntConversionFailure (#362)

Deprecations

v2.3.0

This version contains several new features and fixes, notably support for guild scheduled events, guild timeouts, and a slash command rework with parameter injections, as well as several documentation fixes.

Note: the Version Guarantees have been updated to more accurately reflect the versioning scheme this library is following.

Breaking Changes

• The supported aiohttp version range changed from >=3.6.0,<3.8.0 to >=3.7.0,<3.9.0

• Due to the upcoming text-in-voice feature (not yet released at the time of writing), many methods/properties that previously returned a TextChannel can now also return a VoiceChannel, which shares many but not all of its methods. Also see the details for text-in-voice under “New Features” below, which include a few important things to note.

• Slash command internals have undergone an extensive rework, and while existing code should still work as before, it is recommended that you do some testing using the new implementation first

• Bot.get_slash_command may now also return SubCommandGroup or SubCommand instances, see documentation

• disnake.types.ThreadArchiveDuration is now ThreadArchiveDurationLiteral, to avoid confusion with the new ThreadArchiveDuration enum

Deprecations

• The role_ids and user_ids parameters for guild_permissions are now roles and users respectively; the old parameter names will be removed in a future version

    • This feature is only available in a very limited number of servers at the time of writing this, and the API is still being developed; therefore, expect changes in the future

    • Text-in-voice currently does not support these text channel features (note: this is not guaranteed to be an exhaustive list): threads, webhooks, nsfw flags, slowmode

    • The nsfw and slowmode_delay values/parameters are currently not supported by the API and are still TBD

    • Pinned messages are currently not exposed in the client UI, and while the API for them works, their future is uncertain

  • VoiceChannel now inherits from abc.Messageable

  • New VoiceChannel properties: .nsfw, .slowmode_delay, .last_message_id, .last_message

  • New VoiceChannel methods: .is_nsfw, .get_partial_message

Bug Fixes

• Timeout when waiting for offline members while triggering on_ready().

  • The fact that we did not timeout caused a gigantic memory leak in the library that caused thousands of duplicate Member instances causing big memory spikes.

• Discard null sequences in the gateway.

  • The fact these were not discarded meant that on_ready() kept being called instead of on_resumed(). Since this has been corrected, in most cases on_ready() will be called once or twice with on_resumed() being called much more often.

• Fix crash on duplicate or out of order reactions.

v0.15.0

New Features

• Rich Embeds for messages are now supported.

For the command extension, the following changed:

• Context is no longer slotted to facilitate setting dynamic attributes.

Bug Fixes

• Fix crash when dealing with MESSAGE_REACTION_REMOVE

• Fix incorrect buckets for reactions.

v0.14.2

New Features

• Client.wait_for_reaction() now returns a namedtuple with reaction and user attributes.

  • This is for better support in the case that None is returned since tuple unpacking can lead to issues.

Bug Fixes

• Fix bug that disallowed None to be passed for emoji parameter in Client.wait_for_reaction().

v0.14.1

Bug fixes

• Fix bug with Reaction not being visible at import.

  • This was also breaking the documentation.

  • Use Client.change_presence() instead for better more up to date functionality.

  • This method is subject for removal in a future API version.

• Add Client.change_presence() for changing your status with the new Discord API change.

  • This is the only method that allows changing your status to invisible or do not disturb.

Bug Fixes

  • This is technically old (was added in v0.10.0) but was undocumented until v0.12.0.

For the command extension, the following are new:

• Add custom emoji converter.

• All default converters that can take IDs can now convert via ID.

• Add coroutine support for Bot.command_prefix.

• Fix bug that disallowed ServerRegion from being used in Client.edit_server().

• Fix bug in Channel.permissions_for() that caused permission resolution to happen out of order.

• Fix bug in Member.top_role that did not account for same-position roles.

v0.11.0

This is a minor bug fix update that comes with a gateway update (v5 -> v6).

Breaking Changes

• Permissions.change_nicknames has been renamed to Permissions.change_nickname to match the UI.

New Features

• Add the ability to prune members via Client.prune_members().

• Switch the websocket gateway version to v6 from v5. This allows the library to work with group DMs and 1-on-1 calls.

• Add AppInfo.owner attribute.

• Add CallMessage for group voice call messages.

• Add GroupCall for group voice call information.

• Add Message.system_content to get the system message.

• Add the remaining VIP servers and the Brazil servers into ServerRegion enum.

• Add stderr argument to VoiceClient.create_ffmpeg_player() to redirect stderr.

• The library now handles implicit permission resolution in Channel.permissions_for().

• Add Server.mfa_level to query a server’s 2FA requirement.

• Add Permissions.external_emojis permission.

• Add Member.voice attribute that refers to a VoiceState.

  • For backwards compatibility, the member object will have properties mirroring the old behaviour.

For the command extension, the following are new:

• Command cooldown system with the cooldown decorator.

• UserInputError exception for the hierarchy for user input related errors.

Bug Fixes

• Client.email is now saved when using a token for user accounts.

• Fix issue when removing roles out of order.

• Fix bug where discriminators would not update.

• Handle cases where HEARTBEAT opcode is received. This caused bots to disconnect seemingly randomly.

For the command extension, the following bug fixes apply:

• Bot.check decorator is actually a decorator not requiring parentheses.

• Bot.remove_command and Group.remove_command no longer throw if the command doesn’t exist.

• Command names are no longer forced to be lower().

• Fix a bug where Member and User converters failed to work in private message contexts.

• HelpFormatter now ignores hidden commands when deciding the maximum width.

v0.10.0

For breaking changes, see Migrating to v0.10.0. The breaking changes listed there will not be enumerated below. Since this version is rather a big departure from v0.9.2, this change log will be non-exhaustive.

New Features

• The library is now fully asyncio compatible, allowing you to write non-blocking code a lot more easily.

• The library now fully handles 429s and unconditionally retries on 502s.

• A new command extension module was added but is currently undocumented. Figuring it out is left as an exercise to the reader.

• Two new exception types, Forbidden and NotFound to denote permission errors or 404 errors.

• Added Client.delete_invite() to revoke invites.

• Added support for sending voice. Check VoiceClient for more details.

• Added Client.wait_for_message() coroutine to aid with follow up commands.

• Added version_info named tuple to check version info of the library.

• Login credentials are now cached to have a faster login experience. You can disable this by passing in cache_auth=False when constructing a Client.

• New utility function, disnake.utils.get() to simplify retrieval of items based on attributes.

• All data classes now support !=, ==, hash(obj) and str(obj).

• Added Client.get_bans() to get banned members from a server.

• Added Client.invites_from() to get currently active invites in a server.

• Added Server.me attribute to get the Member version of Client.user.

• Most data classes now support a hash(obj) function to allow you to use them in set or dict classes or subclasses.

• Add Message.clean_content() to get a text version of the content with the user and channel mentioned changed into their names.

• Added a way to remove the messages of the user that just got banned in Client.ban().

• Added Client.wait_until_ready() to facilitate easy creation of tasks that require the client cache to be ready.

• Added Client.wait_until_login() to facilitate easy creation of tasks that require the client to be logged in.

• Add disnake.Game to represent any game with custom text to send to Client.change_status().

• Add Message.nonce attribute.

• Add Member.permissions_in() as another way of doing Channel.permissions_for().

• Add Client.move_member() to move a member to another voice channel.

• You can now create a server via Client.create_server().

• Added Client.edit_server() to edit existing servers.

• Added Client.server_voice_state() to server mute or server deafen a member.

• If you are being rate limited, the library will now handle it for you.

• Add on_member_ban() and on_member_unban() events that trigger when a member is banned/unbanned.

Performance Improvements

• All data classes now use __slots__ which greatly reduce the memory usage of things kept in cache.

• Due to the usage of asyncio, the CPU usage of the library has gone down significantly.

• A lot of the internal cache lists were changed into dictionaries to change the O(n) lookup into O(1).

• Compressed READY is now on by default. This means if you’re on a lot of servers (or maybe even a few) you would receive performance improvements by having to download and process less data.

• While minor, change regex from \d+ to [0-9]+ to avoid unnecessary unicode character lookups.

Bug Fixes

• Fix bug where guilds being updated did not edit the items in cache.

• Fix bug where member.roles were empty upon joining instead of having the @everyone role.

• Fix bug where Role.is_everyone() was not being set properly when the role was being edited.

• Client.logs_from() now handles cases where limit > 100 to sidestep the disnake API limitation.

• Fix bug where a role being deleted would trigger a ValueError.

• Fix bug where Permissions.kick_members() and Permissions.ban_members() were flipped.

• Mentions are now triggered normally. This was changed due to the way disnake handles it internally.

• Fix issue when a Message would attempt to upgrade a Message.server when the channel is a Object.

• Unavailable servers were not being added into cache, this has been corrected.

Version Guarantees

This library does not quite follow the semantic versioning principle, the notable difference being that breaking changes may not only occur on major version increases, but also on minor version bumps (think Python’s own versioning scheme). The primary reason for this is the lack of guarantees on the Discord API side when it comes to breaking changes, which along with the dynamic nature of the API results in breaking changes sometimes being required more frequently than desired. However, any breaking changes will always be explicitly marked as such in the release notes.

In general, the versioning scheme (major.minor.micro) used in this library aims to follow these rules:

• major bumps indicate a significant refactoring or other large changes that would constitute such an increase (will most likely include breaking changes)

• minor bumps contain new features, fixes, and may also have breaking changes

• micro bumps only contain fixes, no new features and no breaking changes

One thing to keep in mind is that breaking changes only apply to publicly documented functions and classes. If it’s not listed in the documentation here then it is not part of the public API and is thus bound to change. This includes attributes that start with an underscore or functions without an underscore that are not documented.

Note

The examples below are non-exhaustive.

Examples of Breaking Changes

• Changing the default parameter value to something else.

• Renaming a function without an alias to an old function.

• Adding or removing parameters to an event.

Examples of Non-Breaking Changes

• Adding or removing private underscored attributes.

• Adding an element into the __slots__ of a data class.

• Changing the behaviour of a function to fix a bug.

• Changes in the documentation.

• Modifying the internal HTTP handling.

• Upgrading the dependencies to a new version, major or otherwise.

Migrating to v1.0

v1.0 is one of the biggest breaking changes in the library due to a complete redesign.

The amount of changes are so massive and long that for all intents and purposes, it is a completely new library.

Part of the redesign involves making things more easy to use and natural. Things are done on the models instead of requiring a Client instance to do any work.

Python Version Change

In order to make development easier and also to allow for our dependencies to upgrade to allow usage of 3.7 or higher, the library had to remove support for Python versions lower than 3.5.3, which essentially means that support for Python 3.4 is dropped.

Major Model Changes

Below are major model changes that have happened in v1.0

Snowflakes are int

Before v1.0, all snowflakes (the id attribute) were strings. This has been changed to int.

Quick example:

# before
ch = client.get_channel('84319995256905728')
if message.author.id == '80528701850124288':
    ...

# after
ch = client.get_channel(84319995256905728)
if message.author.id == 80528701850124288:
    ...

This change allows for fewer errors when using the Copy ID feature in the official client since you no longer have to wrap it in quotes and allows for optimisation opportunities by allowing ETF to be used instead of JSON internally.

Server is now Guild

The official API documentation calls the “Server” concept a “Guild” instead. In order to be more consistent with the API documentation when necessary, the model has been renamed to Guild and all instances referring to it has been changed as well.

A list of changes is as follows:

Before	After
Message.server	Message.guild
Channel.server	GuildChannel.guild

Property Changes

In order to be a bit more consistent, certain things that were properties were changed to methods instead.

The following are now methods instead of properties (requires parentheses):

• Role.is_default()

• Client.is_ready()

• Client.is_closed()

Dict Value Change

Prior to v1.0 some aggregating properties that retrieved models would return “dict view” objects.

As a consequence, when the dict would change size while you would iterate over it, a RuntimeError would be raised and crash the task. To alleviate this, the “dict view” objects were changed into lists.

The following views were changed to a list:

• Client.guilds

• Client.users (new in v1.0)

• Client.emojis (new in v1.0)

• Guild.channels

• Guild.text_channels (new in v1.0)

• Guild.voice_channels (new in v1.0)

• Guild.emojis

• Guild.members

Voice State Changes

Earlier, in v0.11.0 a VoiceState class was added to refer to voice states along with a Member.voice attribute to refer to it.

However, it was transparent to the user. In an effort to make the library save more memory, the voice state change is now more visible.

The only way to access voice attributes is via the Member.voice attribute. Note that if the member does not have a voice state this attribute can be None.

Quick example:

# before
member.deaf
member.voice.voice_channel

# after
if member.voice: # can be None
    member.voice.deaf
    member.voice.channel

User and Member Type Split

In v1.0 to save memory, User and Member are no longer inherited. Instead, they are “flattened” by having equivalent properties that map out to the functional underlying User. Thus, there is no functional change in how they are used. However this breaks isinstance() checks and thus is something to keep in mind.

These memory savings were accomplished by having a global User cache, and as a positive consequence you can now easily fetch a User by their ID by using the new Client.get_user(). You can also get a list of all User your client can see with Client.users.

Channel Type Split

Prior to v1.0, channels were two different types, Channel and PrivateChannel with a is_private property to help differentiate between them.

In order to save memory the channels have been split into 4 different types:

• TextChannel for guild text channels.

• VoiceChannel for guild voice channels.

• DMChannel for DM channels with members.

• GroupChannel for Group DM channels with members.

With this split came the removal of the is_private attribute. You should now use isinstance().

The types are split into two different Abstract Base Classes:

• abc.GuildChannel for guild channels.

• abc.PrivateChannel for private channels (DMs and group DMs).

So to check if something is a guild channel you would do:

isinstance(channel, disnake.abc.GuildChannel)

And to check if it’s a private channel you would do:

isinstance(channel, disnake.abc.PrivateChannel)

Of course, if you’re looking for only a specific type you can pass that too, e.g.

isinstance(channel, disnake.TextChannel)

With this type split also came event changes, which are enumerated in Event Changes.

Miscellaneous Model Changes

There were lots of other things added or removed in the models in general.

They will be enumerated here.

Removed

• Client.login() no longer accepts email and password logins.

  • Use a token and bot=False.

• Client.get_all_emojis

  • Use Client.emojis instead.

• Client.messages

  • Use read-only Client.cached_messages instead.

• Client.wait_for_message and Client.wait_for_reaction are gone.

  • Use Client.wait_for() instead.

• Channel.voice_members

  • Use VoiceChannel.members instead.

• Channel.is_private

  • Use isinstance instead with one of the Abstract Base Classes instead.

  • e.g. isinstance(channel, disnake.abc.GuildChannel) will check if it isn’t a private channel.

• Client.accept_invite

  • There is no replacement for this one. This functionality is deprecated API wise.

• Guild.default_channel / Server.default_channel and Channel.is_default

  • The concept of a default channel was removed from Discord. See #329.

• Message.edited_timestamp

  • Use Message.edited_at instead.

• Message.timestamp

  • Use Message.created_at instead.

• Colour.to_tuple()

  • Use Colour.to_rgb() instead.

• Permissions.view_audit_logs

  • Use Permissions.view_audit_log instead.

• Member.game

  • Use Member.activities instead.

• Guild.role_hierarchy / Server.role_hierarchy

  • Use Guild.roles instead. Note that while sorted, it is in the opposite order of what the old Guild.role_hierarchy used to be.

Changed

• Member.avatar_url and User.avatar_url now return the default avatar if a custom one is not set.

• Message.embeds is now a list of Embed instead of dict objects.

• Message.attachments is now a list of Attachment instead of dict object.

• Guild.roles is now sorted through hierarchy. The first element is always the @everyone role.

Added

• Attachment to represent a disnake attachment.

• CategoryChannel to represent a channel category.

• VoiceChannel.members for fetching members connected to a voice channel.

• TextChannel.members for fetching members that can see the channel.

• Role.members for fetching members that have the role.

• Guild.text_channels for fetching text channels only.

• Guild.voice_channels for fetching voice channels only.

• Guild.categories for fetching channel categories only.

• TextChannel.category and VoiceChannel.category to get the category a channel belongs to.

• Guild.by_category() to get channels grouped by their category.

• Guild.chunked to check member chunking status.

• Guild.explicit_content_filter to fetch the content filter.

• Guild.shard_id to get a guild’s Shard ID if you’re sharding.

• Client.users to get all visible User instances.

• Client.get_user() to get a User by ID.

• User.avatar_url_as() to get an avatar in a specific size or format.

• Guild.vanity_invite() to fetch the guild’s vanity invite.

• Guild.audit_logs() to fetch the guild’s audit logs.

• Message.webhook_id to fetch the message’s webhook ID.

• Message.activity and Message.application for Rich Presence related information.

• TextChannel.is_nsfw() to check if a text channel is NSFW.

• Colour.from_rgb() to construct a Colour from RGB tuple.

• Guild.get_role() to get a role by its ID.

Sending Messages

One of the changes that were done was the merger of the previous Client.send_message and Client.send_file functionality into a single method, send().

Basically:

# before
await client.send_message(channel, 'Hello')

# after
await channel.send('Hello')

This supports everything that the old send_message supported such as embeds:

e = disnake.Embed(title='foo')
await channel.send('Hello', embed=e)

There is a caveat with sending files however, as this functionality was expanded to support multiple file attachments, you must now use a File pseudo-namedtuple to upload a single file.

# before
await client.send_file(channel, 'cool.png', filename='testing.png', content='Hello')

# after
await channel.send('Hello', file=disnake.File('cool.png', 'testing.png'))

This change was to facilitate multiple file uploads:

my_files = [
    disnake.File('cool.png', 'testing.png'),
    disnake.File(some_fp, 'cool_filename.png'),
]

await channel.send('Your images:', files=my_files)

Asynchronous Iterators

Prior to v1.0, certain functions like Client.logs_from would return a different type if done in Python 3.4 or 3.5+.

In v1.0, this change has been reverted and will now return a singular type meeting an abstract concept called AsyncIterator.

This allows you to iterate over it like normal:

async for message in channel.history():
    print(message)

Or turn it into a list:

messages = await channel.history().flatten()
for message in messages:
    print(message)

A handy aspect of returning AsyncIterator is that it allows you to chain functions together such as AsyncIterator.map() or AsyncIterator.filter():

async for m_id in channel.history().filter(lambda m: m.author == client.user).map(lambda m: m.id):
    print(m_id)

The functions passed to AsyncIterator.map() or AsyncIterator.filter() can be either coroutines or regular functions.

You can also get single elements a la disnake.utils.find() or disnake.utils.get() via AsyncIterator.get() or AsyncIterator.find():

my_last_message = await channel.history().get(author=client.user)

The following return AsyncIterator:

• abc.Messageable.history()

• Guild.audit_logs()

• Reaction.users()

Event Changes

A lot of events have gone through some changes.

Many events with server in the name were changed to use guild instead.

Before:

• on_server_join

• on_server_remove

• on_server_update

• on_server_role_create

• on_server_role_delete

• on_server_role_update

• on_server_emojis_update

• on_server_available

• on_server_unavailable

After:

• on_guild_join()

• on_guild_remove()

• on_guild_update()

• on_guild_role_create()

• on_guild_role_delete()

• on_guild_role_update()

• on_guild_emojis_update()

• on_guild_available()

• on_guild_unavailable()

The on_voice_state_update() event has received an argument change.

Before:

async def on_voice_state_update(before, after)

After:

async def on_voice_state_update(member, before, after)

Instead of two Member objects, the new event takes one Member object and two VoiceState objects.

The on_guild_emojis_update() event has received an argument change.

Before:

async def on_guild_emojis_update(before, after)

After:

async def on_guild_emojis_update(guild, before, after)

The first argument is now the Guild that the emojis were updated from.

The on_member_ban() event has received an argument change as well:

Before:

async def on_member_ban(member)

After:

async def on_member_ban(guild, user)

As part of the change, the event can either receive a User or Member. To help in the cases that have User, the Guild is provided as the first parameter.

The on_channel_ events have received a type level split (see Channel Type Split).

Before:

• on_channel_delete

• on_channel_create

• on_channel_update

After:

• on_guild_channel_delete()

• on_guild_channel_create()

• on_guild_channel_update()

• on_private_channel_delete()

• on_private_channel_create()

• on_private_channel_update()

The on_guild_channel_ events correspond to abc.GuildChannel being updated (i.e. TextChannel and VoiceChannel) and the on_private_channel_ events correspond to abc.PrivateChannel being updated (i.e. DMChannel and GroupChannel).

Voice Changes

Voice sending has gone through a complete redesign.

In particular:

• Connection is done through VoiceChannel.connect() instead of Client.join_voice_channel.

• You no longer create players and operate on them (you no longer store them).

• You instead request VoiceClient to play an AudioSource via VoiceClient.play().

• There are different built-in AudioSources.

  • FFmpegPCMAudio is the equivalent of create_ffmpeg_player

• create_ffmpeg_player/create_stream_player/create_ytdl_player have all been removed.

  • The goal is to create AudioSource instead.

• Using VoiceClient.play() will not return an AudioPlayer.

  • Instead, it’s “flattened” like User -> Member is.

• The after parameter now takes a single parameter (the error).

Basically:

Before:

vc = await client.join_voice_channel(channel)
player = vc.create_ffmpeg_player('testing.mp3', after=lambda: print('done'))
player.start()

player.is_playing()
player.pause()
player.resume()
player.stop()
# ...

After:

vc = await channel.connect()
vc.play(disnake.FFmpegPCMAudio('testing.mp3'), after=lambda e: print('done', e))
vc.is_playing()
vc.pause()
vc.resume()
vc.stop()
# ...

With the changed AudioSource design, you can now change the source that the VoiceClient is playing at runtime via VoiceClient.source.

For example, you can add a PCMVolumeTransformer to allow changing the volume:

vc.source = disnake.PCMVolumeTransformer(vc.source)
vc.source.volume = 0.6

An added benefit of the redesign is that it will be much more resilient towards reconnections:

• The voice websocket will now automatically re-connect and re-do the handshake when disconnected.

• The initial connect handshake will now retry up to 5 times so you no longer get as many asyncio.TimeoutError.

• Audio will now stop and resume when a disconnect is found.

  • This includes changing voice regions etc.

Waiting For Events

Prior to v1.0, the machinery for waiting for an event outside of the event itself was done through two different functions, Client.wait_for_message and Client.wait_for_reaction. One problem with one such approach is that it did not allow you to wait for events outside of the ones provided by the library.

In v1.0 the concept of waiting for another event has been generalised to work with any event as Client.wait_for().

For example, to wait for a message:

# before
msg = await client.wait_for_message(author=message.author, channel=message.channel)

# after
def pred(m):
    return m.author == message.author and m.channel == message.channel

msg = await client.wait_for('message', check=pred)

To facilitate multiple returns, Client.wait_for() returns either a single argument, no arguments, or a tuple of arguments.

For example, to wait for a reaction:

reaction, user = await client.wait_for('reaction_add', check=lambda r, u: u.id == 176995180300206080)

# use user and reaction

Since this function now can return multiple arguments, the timeout parameter will now raise a asyncio.TimeoutError when reached instead of setting the return to None. For example:

def pred(m):
    return m.author == message.author and m.channel == message.channel

try:

    msg = await client.wait_for('message', check=pred, timeout=60.0)
except asyncio.TimeoutError:
    await channel.send('You took too long...')
else:
    await channel.send('You said {0.content}, {0.author}.'.format(msg))

Upgraded Dependencies

Following v1.0 of the library, we’ve updated our requirements to aiohttp v2.0 or higher.

Since this is a backwards incompatible change, it is recommended that you see the changes and the Migration to 2.x pages for details on the breaking changes in aiohttp.

Of the most significant for common users is the removal of helper functions such as:

• aiohttp.get

• aiohttp.post

• aiohttp.delete

• aiohttp.patch

• aiohttp.head

• aiohttp.put

• aiohttp.request

It is recommended that you create a session instead:

async with aiohttp.ClientSession() as sess:
    async with sess.get('url') as resp:
        # work with resp

Since it is better to not create a session for every request, you should store it in a variable and then call session.close on it when it needs to be disposed.

Sharding

The library has received significant changes on how it handles sharding and now has sharding as a first-class citizen.

If using a Bot account and you want to shard your bot in a single process then you can use the AutoShardedClient.

This class allows you to use sharding without having to launch multiple processes or deal with complicated IPC.

It should be noted that the sharded client does not support user accounts. This is due to the changes in connection logic and state handling.

Usage is as simple as doing:

client = disnake.AutoShardedClient()

instead of using Client.

This will launch as many shards as your bot needs using the /gateway/bot endpoint, which allocates about 1000 guilds per shard.

If you want more control over the sharding you can specify shard_count and shard_ids.

# launch 10 shards regardless
client = disnake.AutoShardedClient(shard_count=10)

# launch specific shard IDs in this process
client = disnake.AutoShardedClient(shard_count=10, shard_ids=(1, 2, 5, 6))

For users of the command extension, there is also AutoShardedBot which behaves similarly.

Connection Improvements

In v1.0, the auto reconnection logic has been powered up significantly.

Client.connect() has gained a new keyword argument, reconnect that defaults to True which controls the reconnect logic. When enabled, the client will automatically reconnect in all instances of your internet going offline or Discord going offline with exponential back-off.

Client.run() and Client.start() gains this keyword argument as well, but for most cases you will not need to specify it unless turning it off.

Command Extension Changes

Due to the Models are Stateful changes, some of the design of the extension module had to undergo some design changes as well.

Context Changes

In v1.0, the Context has received a lot of changes with how it’s retrieved and used.

The biggest change is that pass_context=True no longer exists, Context is always passed. Ergo:

# before
@bot.command()
async def foo():
    await bot.say('Hello')

# after
@bot.command()
async def foo(ctx):
    await ctx.send('Hello')

The reason for this is because Context now meets the requirements of abc.Messageable. This makes it have similar functionality to TextChannel or DMChannel. Using send() will either DM the user in a DM context or send a message in the channel it was in, similar to the old bot.say functionality. The old helpers have been removed in favour of the new abc.Messageable interface. See Removed Helpers for more information.

Since the Context is now passed by default, several shortcuts have been added:

New Shortcuts

• ctx.author is a shortcut for ctx.message.author.

• ctx.guild is a shortcut for ctx.message.guild.

• ctx.channel is a shortcut for ctx.message.channel.

• ctx.me is a shortcut for ctx.message.guild.me or ctx.bot.user.

• ctx.voice_client is a shortcut for ctx.message.guild.voice_client.

New Functionality

• Context.reinvoke() to invoke a command again.

  • This is useful for bypassing cooldowns.

• Context.valid to check if a context can be invoked with Bot.invoke().

• Context.send_help() to show the help command for an entity using the new HelpCommand system.

  • This is useful if you want to show the user help if they misused a command.

Subclassing Context

In v1.0, there is now the ability to subclass Context and use it instead of the default provided one.

For example, if you want to add some functionality to the context:

class MyContext(commands.Context):
    @property
    def secret(self):
        return 'my secret here'

Then you can use get_context() inside on_message() with combination with invoke() to use your custom context:

class MyBot(commands.Bot):
    async def on_message(self, message):
        ctx = await self.get_context(message, cls=MyContext)
        await self.invoke(ctx)

Now inside your commands you will have access to your custom context:

@bot.command()
async def secret(ctx):
    await ctx.send(ctx.secret)

Removed Helpers

With the new Context changes, a lot of message sending helpers have been removed.

For a full list of changes, see below:

Before	After
Bot.say	Context.send()
Bot.upload	Context.send()
Bot.whisper	ctx.author.send
Bot.type	Context.typing() or Context.trigger_typing()
Bot.reply	No replacement.

Command Changes

As mentioned earlier, the first command change is that pass_context=True no longer exists, so there is no need to pass this as a parameter.

Another change is the removal of no_pm=True. Instead, use the new guild_only() built-in check.

The commands attribute of Bot and Group have been changed from a dictionary to a set that does not have aliases. To retrieve the previous dictionary behaviour, use all_commands instead.

Command instances have gained new attributes and properties:

1. signature to get the signature of the command.

2. usage, an attribute to override the default signature.

3. root_parent to get the root parent group of a subcommand.

For Group and Bot the following changed:

• Changed commands to be a set without aliases.

  • Use all_commands to get the old dict with all commands.

Check Changes

Prior to v1.0, check()s could only be synchronous. As of v1.0 checks can now be coroutines.

Along with this change, a couple new checks were added.

• guild_only() replaces the old no_pm=True functionality.

• is_owner() uses the Client.application_info() endpoint by default to fetch owner ID.

  • This is actually powered by a different function, is_owner().

  • You can set the owner ID yourself by setting Bot.owner_id.

• is_nsfw() checks if the channel the command is in is a NSFW channel.

  • This is powered by the new TextChannel.is_nsfw() method.

Event Changes

All command extension events have changed.

Before:

on_command(command, ctx)
on_command_completion(command, ctx)
on_command_error(error, ctx)

After:

on_command(ctx)
on_command_completion(ctx)
on_command_error(ctx, error)

The extraneous command parameter in on_command() and on_command_completion() have been removed. The Command instance was not kept up-to date so it was incorrect. In order to get the up to date Command instance, use the Context.command attribute.

The error handlers, either Command.error() or on_command_error(), have been re-ordered to use the Context as its first parameter to be consistent with other events and commands.

HelpFormatter and Help Command Changes

The HelpFormatter class has been removed. It has been replaced with a HelpCommand class. This class now stores all the command handling and processing of the help command.

The help command is now stored in the Bot.help_command attribute. As an added extension, you can disable the help command completely by assigning the attribute to None or passing it at __init__ as help_command=None.

The new interface allows the help command to be customised through special methods that can be overridden.

• HelpCommand.send_bot_help()

  • Called when the user requested for help with the entire bot.

• HelpCommand.send_cog_help()

  • Called when the user requested for help with a specific cog.

• HelpCommand.send_group_help()

  • Called when the user requested for help with a Group

• HelpCommand.send_command_help()

  • Called when the user requested for help with a Command

• HelpCommand.get_destination()

  • Called to know where to send the help messages. Useful for deciding whether to DM or not.

• HelpCommand.command_not_found()

  • A function (or coroutine) that returns a presentable no command found string.

• HelpCommand.subcommand_not_found()

  • A function (or coroutine) that returns a string when a subcommand is not found.

• HelpCommand.send_error_message()

  • A coroutine that gets passed the result of HelpCommand.command_not_found() and HelpCommand.subcommand_not_found().

  • By default it just sends the message. But you can, for example, override it to put it in an embed.

• HelpCommand.on_help_command_error()

  • The error handler for the help command if you want to add one.

• HelpCommand.prepare_help_command()

  • A coroutine that is called right before the help command processing is done.

Certain subclasses can implement more customisable methods.

The old HelpFormatter was replaced with DefaultHelpCommand, which implements all of the logic of the old help command. The customisable methods can be found in the accompanying documentation.

The library now provides a new more minimalistic HelpCommand implementation that doesn’t take as much space, MinimalHelpCommand. The customisable methods can also be found in the accompanying documentation.

A frequent request was if you could associate a help command with a cog. The new design allows for dynamically changing of cog through binding it to the HelpCommand.cog attribute. After this assignment the help command will pretend to be part of the cog and everything should work as expected. When the cog is unloaded then the help command will be “unbound” from the cog.

For example, to implement a HelpCommand in a cog, the following snippet can be used.

class MyHelpCommand(commands.MinimalHelpCommand):
    def get_command_signature(self, command):
        return '{0.clean_prefix}{1.qualified_name} {1.signature}'.format(self, command)

class MyCog(commands.Cog):
    def __init__(self, bot):
        self._original_help_command = bot.help_command
        bot.help_command = MyHelpCommand()
        bot.help_command.cog = self

    def cog_unload(self):
        self.bot.help_command = self._original_help_command

For more information, check out the relevant documentation.

Cog Changes

Cogs have completely been revamped. They are documented in Cogs as well.

Cogs are now required to have a base class, Cog for future proofing purposes. This comes with special methods to customise some behaviour.

• Cog.cog_unload()

  • This is called when a cog needs to do some cleanup, such as cancelling a task.

• Cog.bot_check_once()

  • This registers a Bot.check_once() check.

• Cog.bot_check()

  • This registers a regular Bot.check() check.

• Cog.cog_check()

  • This registers a check that applies to every command in the cog.

• Cog.cog_command_error()

  • This is a special error handler that is called whenever an error happens inside the cog.

• Cog.cog_before_invoke() and Cog.cog_after_invoke()

  • A special method that registers a cog before and after invoke hook. More information can be found in Before and After Invocation Hooks.

Those that were using listeners, such as on_message inside a cog will now have to explicitly mark them as such using the commands.Cog.listener() decorator.

Along with that, cogs have gained the ability to have custom names through specifying it in the class definition line. More options can be found in the metaclass that facilitates all this, commands.CogMeta.

An example cog with every special method registered and a custom name is as follows:

class MyCog(commands.Cog, name='Example Cog'):
    def cog_unload(self):
        print('cleanup goes here')

    def bot_check(self, ctx):
        print('bot check')
        return True

    def bot_check_once(self, ctx):
        print('bot check once')
        return True

    async def cog_check(self, ctx):
        print('cog local check')
        return await ctx.bot.is_owner(ctx.author)

    async def cog_command_error(self, ctx, error):
        print('Error in {0.command.qualified_name}: {1}'.format(ctx, error))

    async def cog_before_invoke(self, ctx):
        print('cog local before: {0.command.qualified_name}'.format(ctx))

    async def cog_after_invoke(self, ctx):
        print('cog local after: {0.command.qualified_name}'.format(ctx))

    @commands.Cog.listener()
    async def on_message(self, message):
        pass

Before and After Invocation Hooks

Commands have gained new before and after invocation hooks that allow you to do an action before and after a command is run.

They take a single parameter, Context and they must be a coroutine.

They are on a global, per-cog, or per-command basis.

Basically:

# global hooks:

@bot.before_invoke
async def before_any_command(ctx):
    # do something before a command is called
    pass

@bot.after_invoke
async def after_any_command(ctx):
    # do something after a command is called
    pass

The after invocation is hook always called, regardless of an error in the command. This makes it ideal for some error handling or clean up of certain resources such a database connection.

The per-command registration is as follows:

@bot.command()
async def foo(ctx):
    await ctx.send('foo')

@foo.before_invoke
async def before_foo_command(ctx):
    # do something before the foo command is called
    pass

@foo.after_invoke
async def after_foo_command(ctx):
    # do something after the foo command is called
    pass

The special cog method for these is Cog.cog_before_invoke() and Cog.cog_after_invoke(), e.g.:

class MyCog(commands.Cog):
    async def cog_before_invoke(self, ctx):
        ctx.secret_cog_data = 'foo'

    async def cog_after_invoke(self, ctx):
        print('{0.command} is done...'.format(ctx))

    @commands.command()
    async def foo(self, ctx):
        await ctx.send(ctx.secret_cog_data)

To check if a command failed in the after invocation hook, you can use Context.command_failed.

The invocation order is as follows:

1. Command local before invocation hook

2. Cog local before invocation hook

3. Global before invocation hook

4. The actual command

5. Command local after invocation hook

6. Cog local after invocation hook

7. Global after invocation hook

Converter Changes

Prior to v1.0, a converter was a type hint that could be a callable that could be invoked with a singular argument denoting the argument passed by the user as a string.

This system was eventually expanded to support a Converter system to allow plugging in the Context and do more complicated conversions such as the built-in “disnake” converters.

In v1.0 this converter system was revamped to allow instances of Converter derived classes to be passed. For consistency, the convert() method was changed to always be a coroutine and will now take the two arguments as parameters.

Essentially, before:

class MyConverter(commands.Converter):
    def convert(self):
        return self.ctx.message.server.me

After:

class MyConverter(commands.Converter):
    async def convert(self, ctx, argument):
        return ctx.me

The command framework also got a couple new converters:

• clean_content this is akin to Message.clean_content which scrubs mentions.

• UserConverter will now appropriately convert User only.

• ChannelConverter is now split into two different converters.

  • TextChannelConverter for TextChannel.

  • VoiceChannelConverter for VoiceChannel.
