pythondiscord.pymention

How can I make my discord.py bot mentions someone mentioned in my message?

So I know that there is a similar question on stack overflow but it is for discord.js and I use discord.py so can someone tell me (also this is my first question on stack overflow)

Solution

  • Okay so the above one is almost correct. The solution is:

    @client.command()
async def something(ctx, target:discord.Member = None):
    if target == None:
        await ctx.send("You didn't mention anyone!")
    
    else:
        await ctx.send(target.mention)
#whatever other code

    so it's target:discord.Member = None instead of target:discord.Member == None and that async def thingy ofcourse :)
