This is an attempt to fix the MRO issues present in the current implementation. The previous implementation of using both Cog and app_commands.Group in the inheritance chain caused issues with things such as walk_commands due to it potentially shadowing the app_commands version of the call. In this particular case it's better to use composition instead of inheritance to avoid these bugs entirely. Especially as more things are added that could conflict with each other.

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:
.. 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 on Linux installing voice 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. ``python3.6-dev`` for Python 3.6)
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')
