discord-py-darkself 1.0.1

A Python wrapper for the Discord user API (Custom DarkSelf Fork)

A modern, easy-to-use, feature-rich, and async-ready API wrapper for Discord’s user API written in Python.

About the Project

discord-py-darkself is a customized fork of the discord.py-self library.

The primary feature of this fork is the complete isolation of its namespace. In this version, the standard discord package namespace and all its internal/external imports have been renamed to discord_self.

This allows you to install and use this library concurrently alongside the official, upstream discord.py library (used for regular bot accounts) within the same Python environment without experiencing any naming conflicts or dependency collisions.

How to Use

Instead of using the standard discord import, use discord_self and discord_self.ext for commands and tasks:

import discord_self
from discord_self.ext import commands

bot = commands.Bot(command_prefix='!', self_bot=True)

@bot.event
async def on_ready():
    print(f'Logged on as {bot.user} (ID: {bot.user.id})')

@bot.command()
async def ping(ctx):
    await ctx.send('pong')

bot.run('YOUR_ACCOUNT_TOKEN_HERE')

Installation

Python 3.10 or higher is required.

You can install the library directly from your GitHub repository using pip:

pip install git+https://github.com/Darknife339/discord.py-darkself.git

If you have cloned the repository locally and wish to install it in editable mode for development:

cd discord.py-darkself
pip install -e .
