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

Note:
Automating user accounts is against the Discord ToS. This library is a proof of concept and I cannot recommend using it. Do so at your own risk.

Fork Changes

These changes have become too numerous to mention, so check out our docs.

Credits:

  • Rapptz for the original library this fork is based on. Without it, the project would not exist.
  • arandomnewaccount for help when the project was first started.

Key Features

  • Modern Pythonic API using async and await.
  • Proper rate limit handling.
  • Optimised in both speed and memory.
  • Mostly compatible with the upstream discord.py.
  • Prevents user account automation detection.
  • Implements vast amounts of the user account-specific API. For a non-exhaustive list:
    • Sessions
    • Read states
    • Connections
    • Relationships
    • Experiments
    • Protobuf user settings
    • Application/team management
    • Store/SKUs/entitlements
    • Billing (e.g. subscriptions, payments, boosts, promotions, etc.)
    • Interactions (slash commands, buttons, etc.)

Installing

Python 3.8 or higher is required.

To install the library without full voice support, you can just run the following command:

Note

A Virtual Environment is recommended to install the library, especially on Linux where the system Python is externally managed and restricts which packages you can install on it.

# Linux/macOS
python3 -m pip install -U discord.py-self

# Windows
py -3 -m pip install -U discord.py-self

Otherwise to get voice support you should run the following command:

# Linux/macOS
python3 -m pip install -U "discord.py-self[voice]"

# Windows
py -3 -m pip install -U discord.py-self[voice]

To install the development version, do the following:

$ git clone https://github.com/dolfies/discord.py-self
$ cd discord.py-self
$ python3 -m pip install -U .[voice]

Optional Packages

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)

Using with Upstream

If you would like to use the library alongside upstream discord.py, you can install selfcord.py instead of discord.py-self. Check out the renamed branch for more information.

Quick Example

import discord

class MyClient(discord.Client):
    async def on_ready(self):
        print('Logged on as', self.user)

    async def on_message(self, message):
        # only 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 discord
from discord.ext import commands

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

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

bot.run('token')
