dislash.py 0.5.5

A python wrapper for discord slash commands.

dislash.py

An extending library for discord.py that allows to build awesome slash-commands.

📄 Slash commands is a new discord API feature that allows to build user-friendly commands. Once "/" is pressed on keyboard, the entire list of slash-commands pops up. The list includes hints and short descriptions which make exploring your bot much easier.

Installation

Run any of these commands in terminal:

pip install dislash.py

python -m pip install dislash.py

Features

• Supports automatic registration of slash-commands
• Supports manual and automatic sharding
• Convenient decorator-based interface
• OOP-based slash-command constructor

Examples

💡 This library requires discord.py.

Creating a slash-command

In this example registration is automatic. If you want to register slash-commands separately, see examples below.

from discord.ext import commands
from dislash import slash_commands
from dislash.interactions import *

client = commands.Bot(command_prefix="!")
slash = slash_commands.SlashClient(client)
test_guilds = [12345, 98765]

@slash.command(
    name="hello", # Defaults to function name
    description="Says hello",
    guild_ids=test_guilds # If not specified, the command is registered globally
    # Global registration takes up to 1 hour
)
async def hello(inter):
    await inter.reply("Hello!")

client.run("BOT_TOKEN")

Only registering a slash-command

This example only shows how to register a slash-command.

from discord.ext import commands
from dislash import slash_commands
from dislash.interactions import *

client = commands.Bot(command_prefix="!")
slash = slash_commands.SlashClient(client)
test_guild_ID = 12345

@slash.event
async def on_ready():
    sc = SlashCommand(
        name="random",
        description="Returns a random number from the given range",
        options=[
            Option(
                name="start",
                description="Enter a number",
                required=True,
                type=Type.INTEGER
            ),
            Option(
                name="end",
                description="Enter a number",
                required=True,
                type=Type.INTEGER
            )
        ]
    )
    await slash.register_global_slash_command(sc)
    # Discord API uploads GLOBAL commands for more than 1 hour
    # That's why I highly recommend .register_guild_slash_command for testing:
    await slash.register_guild_slash_command(test_guild_id, sc)

client.run("BOT_TOKEN")

You should register a slash-command only once in order to make it work. You can always edit it if you want, using .edit_global_slash_command / .edit_guild_slash_command methods.

Only responding to a slash-command

It's assumed that you've already registered the command.

from random import randint
from discord.ext import commands
from dislash import slash_commands
from dislash.interactions import *

client = commands.Bot(command_prefix="!")
slash = slash_commands.SlashClient(client)

@slash.command()
async def random(interaction):
    # interaction is instance of `interactions.Interaction`
    # It's pretty much the same as "ctx" from discord.py
    # except <message> attribute is replaced by <data>
    a = interaction.get('start')
    b = interaction.get('end')
    if b < a: a, b = b, a
    await interaction.reply(randint(a, b))

client.run("BOT_TOKEN")
