async
and await
.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-api
# Windows
py -3 -m pip install -U discord-py-api
Otherwise to get voice support you should run the following command:
.. code:: sh
# Linux/macOS
python3 -m pip install -U "discord-py-api[voice]"
# Windows
py -3 -m pip install -U discord-py-api[voice]
Optional Packages
* `PyNaCl <https://pypi.org/project/PyNaCl/>`__ (for voice support)
Please note that when installing voice support on Linux, 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
from botway import GetToken
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(GetToken())
Bot Example
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
.. code:: py
import discord
from discord.ext import commands
from botway import GetToken
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(GetToken())
