=======
discord.py is an API wrapper for Discord written in Python.
This was written to allow easier writing of bots or chat logs. Make sure to familiarise yourself with the API using the documentation.
The discord API is constantly changing and the wrapper API is as well. There will be no effort to keep backwards compatibility in versions before v1.0.0.
I recommend that you follow the discussion in the unofficial Discord API discord channel and update your installation periodically through pip install --upgrade discord.py. I will attempt to make note of breaking changes in the API channel.
Installing the async beta is easy:
pip install git+https://github.com/Rapptz/discord.py@async
Note that this requires git to be installed.
import discord
import asyncio
client = discord.Client()
@client.event
async def on_ready():
print('Logged in as')
print(client.user.name)
print(client.user.id)
print('------')
@client.event
async def on_message(message):
if message.content.startswith('!test'):
counter = 0
tmp = await client.send_message(message.channel, 'Calculating messages...')
async for log in client.logs_from(message.channel, limit=100):
if log.author == message.author:
counter += 1
await client.edit_message(tmp, 'You have {} messages.'.format(counter))
elif message.content.startswith('!sleep'):
await asyncio.sleep(5)
await client.send_message(message.channel, 'Done sleeping')
client.run('token')Note that in Python 3.4 you use @asyncio.coroutine instead of async def and yield from instead of await.
