Event Reference#

This section outlines the different types of events listened by Client.

There are two ways to register an event, the first way is through the use of Client.event(). The second way is through subclassing Client and overriding the specific events. For example:

import discord

class MyClient(discord.Client):
    async def on_message(self, message):
        if message.author == self.user:
            return

        if message.content.startswith('$hello'):
            await message.channel.send('Hello World!')

If an event handler raises an exception, on_error() will be called to handle it, which defaults to print a traceback and ignoring the exception.

Warning

All the events must be a coroutine. If they aren’t, then you might get unexpected errors. In order to turn a function into a coroutine they must be async def functions.

This requires Intents.guilds to be enabled.

Parameters:

channel (abc.GuildChannel) – The guild channel that got created or deleted.

Connection#

discord.on_error(event, *args, **kwargs)#

Usually when an event raises an uncaught exception, a traceback is printed to stderr and the exception is ignored. If you want to change this behaviour and handle the exception for whatever reason yourself, this event can be overridden. Which, when done, will suppress the default action of printing the traceback.

The information of the exception raised and the exception itself can be retrieved with a standard call to sys.exc_info().

If you want exception to propagate out of the Client class you can define an on_error handler consisting of a single empty raise statement. Exceptions raised by on_error will not be handled in any way by Client.

Note

on_error will only be dispatched to Client.event().

It will not be received by Client.wait_for(), or, if used, Bots listeners such as listen() or listener().

Parameters:
  • event (str) – The name of the event that raised the exception.

  • args – The positional arguments for the event that raised the exception.

  • kwargs – The keyword arguments for the event that raised the exception.

discord.on_connect()#

Called when the client has successfully connected to Discord. This is not the same as the client being fully prepared, see on_ready() for that.

The warnings on on_ready() also apply.

Warning

Overriding this event will not call Bot.sync_commands(). As a result, ApplicationCommand will not be registered.

discord.on_shard_connect(shard_id)#

Similar to on_connect() except used by AutoShardedClient to denote when a particular shard ID has connected to Discord.

New in version 1.4.

Parameters:

shard_id (int) – The shard ID that has connected.

discord.on_disconnect()#

Called when the client has disconnected from Discord, or a connection attempt to Discord has failed. This could happen either through the internet being disconnected, explicit calls to close, or Discord terminating the connection one way or the other.

This function can be called many times without a corresponding on_connect() call.

discord.on_shard_disconnect(shard_id)#

Similar to on_disconnect() except used by AutoShardedClient to denote when a particular shard ID has disconnected from Discord.

New in version 1.4.

Parameters:

shard_id (int) – The shard ID that has disconnected.

discord.on_ready()#

Called when the client is done preparing the data received from Discord. Usually after login is successful and the Client.guilds and co. are filled up.

Warning

This function is not guaranteed to be the first event called. Likewise, this function is not guaranteed to only be called once. This library implements reconnection logic and thus will end up calling this event whenever a RESUME request fails.

discord.on_shard_ready(shard_id)#

Similar to on_ready() except used by AutoShardedClient to denote when a particular shard ID has become ready.

Parameters:

shard_id (int) – The shard ID that is ready.

discord.on_resumed()#

Called when the client has resumed a session.

discord.on_shard_resumed(shard_id)#

Similar to on_resumed() except used by AutoShardedClient to denote when a particular shard ID has resumed a session.

New in version 1.4.

Parameters:

shard_id (int) – The shard ID that has resumed.

discord.on_socket_event_type(event_type)#

Called whenever a WebSocket event is received from the WebSocket.

This is mainly useful for logging how many events you are receiving from the Discord gateway.

Parameters:

event_type (str) – The event type from Discord that is received, e.g. 'READY'.

discord.on_socket_raw_receive(msg)#

Called whenever a message is completely received from the WebSocket, before it’s processed and parsed. This event is always dispatched when a complete message is received and the passed data is not parsed in any way.

This is only really useful for grabbing the WebSocket stream and debugging purposes.

This requires setting the enable_debug_events setting in the Client.

Note

This is only for the messages received from the client WebSocket. The voice WebSocket will not trigger this event.

Parameters:

msg (str) – The message passed in from the WebSocket library.

discord.on_socket_raw_send(payload)#

Called whenever a send operation is done on the WebSocket before the message is sent. The passed parameter is the message that is being sent to the WebSocket.

This is only really useful for grabbing the WebSocket stream and debugging purposes.

This requires setting the enable_debug_events setting in the Client.

Note

This is only for the messages sent from the client WebSocket. The voice WebSocket will not trigger this event.

Parameters:

payload – The message that is about to be passed on to the WebSocket library. It can be bytes to denote a binary message or str to denote a regular text message.

Guilds#

Messages#

discord.on_message(message)#

Called when a Message is created and sent.

This requires Intents.messages to be enabled.

Warning

Your bot’s own messages and private messages are sent through this event. This can lead cases of ‘recursion’ depending on how your bot was programmed. If you want the bot to not reply to itself, consider checking the user IDs. Note that Bot does not have this problem.

Parameters:

message (Message) – The current message.

discord.on_message_delete(message)#

Called when a message is deleted. If the message is not found in the internal message cache, then this event will not be called. Messages might not be in cache if the message is too old or the client is participating in high traffic guilds.

If this occurs increase the max_messages parameter or use the on_raw_message_delete() event instead.

This requires Intents.messages to be enabled.

Parameters:

message (Message) – The deleted message.

discord.on_bulk_message_delete(messages)#

Called when messages are bulk deleted. If none of the messages deleted are found in the internal message cache, then this event will not be called. If individual messages were not found in the internal message cache, this event will still be called, but the messages not found will not be included in the messages list. Messages might not be in cache if the message is too old or the client is participating in high traffic guilds.

If this occurs increase the max_messages parameter or use the on_raw_bulk_message_delete() event instead.

This requires Intents.messages to be enabled.

Parameters:

messages (List[Message]) – The messages that have been deleted.

discord.on_raw_message_delete(payload)#

Called when a message is deleted. Unlike on_message_delete(), this is called regardless of the message being in the internal message cache or not.

If the message is found in the message cache, it can be accessed via RawMessageDeleteEvent.cached_message

This requires Intents.messages to be enabled.

Parameters:

payload (RawMessageDeleteEvent) – The raw event payload data.

discord.on_raw_bulk_message_delete(payload)#

Called when a bulk delete is triggered. Unlike on_bulk_message_delete(), this is called regardless of the messages being in the internal message cache or not.

If the messages are found in the message cache, they can be accessed via RawBulkMessageDeleteEvent.cached_messages

This requires Intents.messages to be enabled.

Parameters:

payload (RawBulkMessageDeleteEvent) – The raw event payload data.

discord.on_message_edit(before, after)#

Called when a Message receives an update event. If the message is not found in the internal message cache, then these events will not be called. Messages might not be in cache if the message is too old or the client is participating in high traffic guilds.

If this occurs increase the max_messages parameter or use the on_raw_message_edit() event instead.

The following non-exhaustive cases trigger this event:

  • A message has been pinned or unpinned.

  • The message content has been changed.

  • The message has received an embed.

    • For performance reasons, the embed server does not do this in a “consistent” manner.

  • The message’s embeds were suppressed or unsuppressed.

  • A call message has received an update to its participants or ending time.

This requires Intents.messages to be enabled.

Parameters:
  • before (Message) – The previous version of the message.

  • after (Message) – The current version of the message.

discord.on_raw_message_edit(payload)#

Called when a message is edited. Unlike on_message_edit(), this is called regardless of the state of the internal message cache.

If the message is found in the message cache, it can be accessed via RawMessageUpdateEvent.cached_message. The cached message represents the message before it has been edited. For example, if the content of a message is modified and triggers the on_raw_message_edit() coroutine, the RawMessageUpdateEvent.cached_message will return a Message object that represents the message before the content was modified.

Due to the inherently raw nature of this event, the data parameter coincides with the raw data given by the gateway.

Since the data payload can be partial, care must be taken when accessing stuff in the dictionary. One example of a common case of partial data is when the 'content' key is inaccessible. This denotes an “embed” only edit, which is an edit in which only the embeds are updated by the Discord embed server.

This requires Intents.messages to be enabled.

Parameters:

payload (RawMessageUpdateEvent) – The raw event payload data.

Reactions#

discord.on_reaction_add(reaction, user)#

Called when a message has a reaction added to it. Similar to on_message_edit(), if the message is not found in the internal message cache, then this event will not be called. Consider using on_raw_reaction_add() instead.

Note

To get the Message being reacted, access it via Reaction.message.

This requires Intents.reactions to be enabled.

Note

This doesn’t require Intents.members within a guild context, but due to Discord not providing updated user information in a direct message it’s required for direct messages to receive this event. Consider using on_raw_reaction_add() if you need this and do not otherwise want to enable the members intent.

Parameters:
  • reaction (Reaction) – The current state of the reaction.

  • user (Union[Member, User]) – The user who added the reaction.

discord.on_raw_reaction_add(payload)#

Parameters:

payload (RawReactionActionEvent) – The raw event payload data.

discord.on_reaction_remove(reaction, user)#

Called when a message has a reaction removed from it. Similar to on_message_edit, if the message is not found in the internal message cache, then this event will not be called.

Note

To get the message being reacted, access it via Reaction.message.

Note

Consider using on_raw_reaction_remove() if you need this and do not want to enable the members intent.

Parameters:
