How to Make a Discord Bot with Python

Рет қаралды 55,706

Күн бұрын

Learn how you can create your own simple Python Discord bot in this tutorial! Your bot will be able to respond to commands like "!hello" and "!add 4 5 6". We'll also make the bot able to help us study/work by tracking our focus sessions, and reminding us when to take a break (on a scheduled timer).

Just found your channel. Watched the AI SaaS video and am now on the portfolio site for beginners. The level of detail you put into explaining things in your videos is just right. Please keep making content, thanks a lot.

😅 Thanks for your kind works. It is a challenge for me to balance the content to be fast and simple, but still comprehensive enough to learn from, so hearing that it works for you is very encouraging!

This was exactly what I needed. Got it running in 10 minutes and coded what I needed. My one issue, and I know it isn't part of this is how to limit the bot to one channel! I did start it as administrator to test. Removed it and readded it with just manage and send messages in text permissions. Google is not helping and I am stumped. I don't want everyone to use my / commands! Just a specific channel. Again great tutorial, it did what it was supposed to! Thank you!

@pixegami 5 ай бұрын

Thank you! To solve your problem, here is one solution I found online: > The easiest way to do this is not actually via code but via permissions on the server. On your server you should find a role with the same name as your bot, whose permissions (including send messages) you can change for seperate channels. Otherwise, I guess you can do it hackily as well by using an if/else statement in the bot logic itself to only respond if the channel ID of the message is the one you want the bot to operate in.

@LavinOficial Ай бұрын

@openup8708 Ай бұрын

hey great video. i have a question. If I have code written already, how do I implement that code to work with the discord bot? For example, if I have a script written to return output for a certain input, how do I implement this to the discord bot so that if i place an input to the discord channel, it will output the values (from my script I created)

It probably uses the UTC time from the machine your bot is running on. What’s the timezone set on your system? You might have to set it to local time.

it says for me bot = commands.Bot(command_prefix="/", intents=discord.intents.all()) AttributeError: module 'discord' has no attribute 'intents' how do I fix this

@pixegami 7 ай бұрын

I think you might be using a different discord.py version than the one used in the tutorial. You'd either have to roll back to the same version, for find the equivalent to "discord.intents.all()" in your current library version.
