@bot.command()
async def blackjack(ctx):
    cards = "♣️3"
   
    @bot.event
    async def on_message(msg):
        globals cards
        print(cards)

I'm making a blackjack command in discord.py but ran into a problem where the variable "cards" is not defined (because it isn't a local variable) I'm not sure how to fix this. I tried including "globals cards" but it still didn't work.

discord.py coroutine python

It can't access the variable because you define it in a separate method. If you define the variable outside of both methods, then all of your methods may access and change the variable freely.

Code

cards = "♣️3"

@bot.command()
async def blackjack(ctx):
    #code here
    pass

@bot.event
async def on_message(msg):
    print(cards)
