I made a discord bot with a main file and one other file of commands that are loaded with cogs and the problem is that the commands are not loaded.
I simplified the code triny to resolve the error but even this does not work:
bot.py:
import discord
from discord.ext import commands
import config
# declaring intents and launching client
intents = discord.Intents.default()
intents.members = True
intents.presences = True
bot = commands.Bot(command_prefix='.', description="Useful bot", intents=intents)
startup_extensions = ["private_channels"]
# listener
@bot.event
async def on_ready():
print(f'Connected to Discord as {bot.user} !')
@bot.event
async def on_message(message):
if message.author == bot.user:
return
print("message received")
# starting extensions
for extension in startup_extensions:
try:
bot.load_extension(extension)
except Exception as e:
exc = '{}: {}'.format(type(e).__name__, e)
print('Failed to load extension {}\n{}'.format(extension, exc))
# starting bot
bot.run(config.token)
private_channels.py:
from discord.ext import commands
class PrivateChannels(commands.Cog):
def __init__(self, bot):
self.bot = bot
# creates a new private channel
@commands.command(name="test")
async def test(self, ctx):
await ctx.send("test")
def setup(bot):
print("Loading private channels")
bot.add_cog(PrivateChannels(bot))
print("Private channels loaded")
