TheCatApi discord.py

So today I was trying to add a command to my discord bot that would allow it to connect to TheCatApi, and I was unable to do it due to multiple errors. Here's my code below:

import nextcord
import os
from nextcord import Interaction, SlashOption
from nextcord.ext import commands
import asyncio
import catapi

loop = asyncio.new_event_loop()

api = catapi.CatApi(api_key=os.environ['CAT_API_KEY'])

def run_coro(coroutine):
    return loop.run_until_complete(coroutine)


class Fun(commands.Cog):

  def __init__(self, client):
    self.client = client

  testServerID = 827933970742116442

  @nextcord.slash_command(name = "cat", description = "Sends a random cat photo uwu", guild_ids=[testServerID])
  async def cat(self, interaction: Interaction):
    
    results = run_coro(api.search_images(limit=1))
    print(results[0].url)
    await interaction.response.send_message("heer")





print("Loaded cog: Fun.py")

def setup(client):
  client.add_cog(Fun(client))

And the monumental error below:

I have tried putting different parts of code in and out of the class, reformatting the code, even deleting the entire thing and rewriting it and I achieved nothing. I'm using this async wrapper for the API connection. That's all of the detail I can give you but stackoverflow is asking for more.... Anyways, thanks in advance to anyone who can help! Thanks again, and good luck to anyone who decides to try and help!

Solution

  • Well i have something that might help you

    Heres the code i wrote:

    import requests
import nextcord 
from nextcord import Interaction
from nextcord.ext import commands

class Test(commands.Cog):
    def __init__(self, client):
        self.client = client

    guild_id = 'your_id'

    @nextcord.slash_command(name="cat", guild_ids=[guild_id])
    async def cat(self, interaction: Interaction):
        await interaction.response.defer()
        data = requests.get("https://api.thecatapi.com/v1/images/search")
        data = data.json()
        get = data[0]
        result = get["url"]
        embed = nextcord.Embed(
            title="A Cat",
            color=nextcord.Color.random()
        )
        embed.set_image(url=result)
        await interaction.edit_original_message(embed=embed)

def setup(client):
    client.add_cog(Test(client))
