I am writing a bot for my discord server and I've put a play command to my bot. It works fine with URL's but I want the bot to work with searchs too. So instead of copying and pasting the URL I want to be able to write the keyword for it. This is the play command:
@client.command(pass_context=True, aliases=['p', 'pla'])
async def play(ctx, url: str):
def check_queue():
Queue_infile = os.path.isdir("./Queue")
if Queue_infile is True:
DIR = os.path.abspath(os.path.realpath("Queue"))
length = len(os.listdir(DIR))
still_q = length - 1
try:
first_file = os.listdir(DIR)[0]
except:
print("No more queued song(s)\n")
queues.clear()
return
main_location = os.path.dirname(os.path.realpath(__file__))
song_path = os.path.abspath(os.path.realpath("Queue") + "\\" + first_file)
if length != 0:
print("Song done, playing next queued\n")
print(f"Songs still in queue: {still_q}")
song_there = os.path.isfile("song.mp3")
if song_there:
os.remove("song.mp3")
shutil.move(song_path, main_location)
for file in os.listdir("./"):
if file.endswith(".mp3"):
os.rename(file, 'song.mp3')
voice.play(discord.FFmpegPCMAudio("song.mp3"), after=lambda e: check_queue())
voice.source = discord.PCMVolumeTransformer(voice.source)
voice.source.volume = 0.07
else:
queues.clear()
return
else:
queues.clear()
print("No songs were queued before the ending of the last song\n")
song_there = os.path.isfile("song.mp3")
try:
if song_there:
os.remove("song.mp3")
queues.clear()
print("Removed old song file")
except PermissionError:
print("Trying to delete song file, but it's being played")
await ctx.send("ERROR: Music playing")
return
Queue_infile = os.path.isdir("./Queue")
try:
Queue_folder = "./Queue"
if Queue_infile is True:
print("Removed old Queue Folder")
shutil.rmtree(Queue_folder)
except:
print("No old Queue folder")
await ctx.send("Getting everything ready now")
voice = get(client.voice_clients, guild=ctx.guild)
ydl_opts = {
'format': 'bestaudio/best',
'quiet': True,
'postprocessors': [{
'key': 'FFmpegExtractAudio',
'preferredcodec': 'mp3',
'preferredquality': '192',
}],
}
try:
with youtube_dl.YoutubeDL(ydl_opts) as ydl:
print("Downloading audio now\n")
ydl.download([url])
except:
print("FALLBACK: youtube-dl does not support this URL, using Spotify (This is normal if Spotify URL)")
c_path = os.path.dirname(os.path.realpath(__file__))
system("spotdl -f " + '"' + c_path + '"' + " -s " + url)
for file in os.listdir("./"):
if file.endswith(".mp3"):
name = file
print(f"Renamed File: {file}\n")
os.rename(file, "song.mp3")
voice.play(discord.FFmpegPCMAudio("song.mp3"), after=lambda e: check_queue())
voice.source = discord.PCMVolumeTransformer(voice.source)
voice.source.volume = 0.14
nname = name.rsplit("-", 2)
await ctx.send(f"Playing: {nname[0]}")
print("playing\n")
I know It looks a little complex, It's because It has a queue feature. I tried several solution I saw online, but they didn't help because of the differences between the code they gave and the code that I have. If there is any space mistakes, It's because I might have forgot to put spaces in stackoverflow.
In your youtube-dl options, set default_search. For example,
ydl_opts = {
'default_search': 'ytsearch',
# ... all other options
will search using the YouTube search if the input is not a URL. This works with any of the supported sites, for example 'default_search': 'https://instagram.com/explore/tags/' will search instagram tags by default.
