python discord.py code example

Example 1: discord.py install

GREAT answers, me, a noob at python did not know that I had to run the
pip install discord.py
INSIDE the scripts folder eg
C:/users/ben/AppData/local/programs/python/python32/scripts (I think)

Example 2: how to import discord in python

py -3 -m pip install -U discord.py

Example 3: discord.py

# Discord.py is a API wrapper for python. 
Docs = "https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/"
PyPI = "pip install -U discord.py"

# --- A simple bot ---

import discord
from discord.ext import commands 

client = commands.Bot(comand_prefix='bot prefix here') # You can choose your own prefix here

@client.event()
async def on_ready(): # When the bot starts
    print(f"Bot online and logged in as {client.user}")

# A simple command
@client.command(aliases=["ms", "aliases!"]) # You make make the command respond to other commands too
async def ping(ctx, a_variable): # a_variable is a parameter you use in the command
    await ctx.send(f"Pong! {round(client.latency * 1000)}ms. Your input was {a_variable}")

client.run('your token here') # Running the bot

Example 4: python discord

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')

client = MyClient()
client.run('token')

Example 5: discord.py

import discord

client = discord.Client()

@client.event
async def on_ready():
    print('We have logged in as {0.user}'.format(client))

@client.event
async def on_message(message):
    if message.author == client.user:
        return

    if message.content.startswith('$hello'):
        await message.channel.send('Hello!')

client.run('your token here')

Example 6: create a role with discord.py

@client.command(aliases=['make_role'])
@commands.has_permissions(manage_roles=True) # Check if the user executing the command can manage roles
async def create_role(ctx, *, name):
	guild = ctx.guild
	await guild.create_role(name=name)
	await ctx.send(f'Role `{name}` has been created')
