 | 
						|
A modern, easy to use, feature-rich, and async ready API wrapper for Discord written in Python.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Key Features
 | 
						|
-------------
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
- Modern Pythonic API using ``async`` and ``await``.
 | 
						|
- Proper rate limit handling.
 | 
						|
- Optimised in both speed and memory.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Installing
 | 
						|
----------
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
**Python 3.8 or higher is required**
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
To install the library without full voice support, you can just run the following command:
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
.. note::
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
    A `Virtual Environment <https://docs.python.org/3/library/venv.html>`__ is recommended to install
 | 
						|
    the library, especially on Linux where the system Python is externally managed and restricts which
 | 
						|
    packages you can install on it.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
.. code:: sh
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
    # Linux/macOS
 | 
						|
    python3 -m pip install -U discord.py
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
    # Windows
 | 
						|
    py -3 -m pip install -U discord.py
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Otherwise to get voice support you should run the following command:
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
.. code:: sh
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
    # Linux/macOS
 | 
						|
    python3 -m pip install -U "discord.py[voice]"
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
    # Windows
 | 
						|
    py -3 -m pip install -U discord.py[voice]
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
To install the development version, do the following:
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
.. code:: sh
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
    $ git clone https://github.com/Rapptz/discord.py
 | 
						|
    $ cd discord.py
 | 
						|
    $ python3 -m pip install -U .[voice]
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Optional Packages
 | 
						|
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
* `PyNaCl <https://pypi.org/project/PyNaCl/>`__ (for voice support)
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Please note that when installing voice support on Linux, you must install the following packages via your favourite package manager (e.g. ``apt``, ``dnf``, etc) before running the above commands:
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
* libffi-dev (or ``libffi-devel`` on some systems)
 | 
						|
* python-dev (e.g. ``python3.8-dev`` for Python 3.8)
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Quick Example
 | 
						|
--------------
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
.. code:: py
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
    import discord
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
    class MyClient(discord.Client):
 | 
						|
        async def on_ready(self):
 | 
						|
            print('Logged on as', self.user)
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
        async def on_message(self, message):
 | 
						|
            # don't respond to ourselves
 | 
						|
            if message.author == self.user:
 | 
						|
                return
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
            if message.content == 'ping':
 | 
						|
                await message.channel.send('pong')
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
    intents = discord.Intents.default()
 | 
						|
    intents.message_content = True
 | 
						|
    client = MyClient(intents=intents)
 | 
						|
    client.run('token')
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Bot Example
 | 
						|
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
.. code:: py
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
    import discord
 | 
						|
    from discord.ext import commands
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
    intents = discord.Intents.default()
 | 
						|
    intents.message_content = True
 | 
						|
    bot = commands.Bot(command_prefix='>', intents=intents)
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
    @bot.command()
 | 
						|
    async def ping(ctx):
 | 
						|
        await ctx.send('pong')
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
    bot.run('token')
 |
