A Python wrapper for the Discord API
Project description
A modern, easy to use, feature-rich, and async ready API wrapper for Discord written in Python.
Warning
The library is still in development and isn’t usable yet. We hope to publish a stable release before the 10th of september.
About disnake
All the contributors and developers, associated with disnake, are trying their best to add new features to the library as soon as possible. We strive to revive the greatest Python wrapper for Discord API and keep it up to date.
Key Features
Modern Pythonic API using async and await.
Added features for ease of coding
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:
# Linux/macOS
python3 -m pip install -U disnake
# Windows
py -3 -m pip install -U disnake
Otherwise to get voice support you should run the following command:
# Linux/macOS
python3 -m pip install -U "disnake[voice]"
# Windows
py -3 -m pip install -U disnake[voice]
To install the development version, do the following:
$ git clone https://github.com/EQUENOS/disnake
$ cd disnake
$ python3 -m pip install -U .[voice]
Optional Packages
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
import disnake
class MyClient(disnake.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')
Bot Example
import disnake
from disnake.ext import commands
bot = commands.Bot(command_prefix='>')
@bot.command()
async def ping(ctx):
await ctx.send('pong')
bot.run('token')
Slash Commands Example
import disnake
from disnake.ext import commands
bot = commands.Bot(command_prefix='>', test_guilds=[12345])
@bot.slash_command()
async def ping(inter):
await inter.response.send_message('pong')
bot.run('token')
