CTX commands not working when combined with the mcstatus library

Question

I made a Discord bot that tells you a Minecraft's server status! It works fine on the console with the print function, but it doesn’t work as a command! The bot just doesn’t respond. Also I tested it without the mcstatus library and the command worked. (Without what it's supposed to do, of course.)

This is my code:

import discord
from discord.ext import commands
from mcstatus import JavaServer

client = commands.Bot(command_prefix = "!")
client.remove_command("help")

server = JavaServer.lookup("mc.elitesmp.co:25588")
status = server.status()

@client.event
async def on_ready():
    print('Logged in as: "' + str(client.user) + '"')
    print(f"Elite SMP has {status.players.online} players online!")

@client.command() # <--- This is the command that doesn't work!
async def info(ctx):
    await ctx.send("test")

client.run("token")

Any ideas?

I think it’s because you need to enable intents in your Discord bot, and also declare them in the code by adding:

intents = discord.Intents.default()

And also putting , intents=intents in the space where you declare your bot's prefix.

This is also an example of a bot I just made, to help with some command also.

import discord
from discord.ext import commands
from mcstatus import JavaServer
from mcstatus import BedrockServer


intents = discord.Intents.default()

bot = commands.Bot(command_prefix='?', intents=intents)

TOKEN = "removed for obvious reasons"

@bot.event
async def on_ready():
    print('ready')
    await bot.change_presence(activity=discord.Activity(type=discord.ActivityType.watching,name="Minecraft Servers"))

@bot.event
async def on_command_error(ctx, error):
    if isinstance(error,commands.CommandInvokeError):
        await ctx.reply("No such server was found")

@bot.command()
async def java(ctx, message):
    server = JavaServer.lookup(message)
    status = server.status()
    embed = discord.Embed(title=f"{message}", description=f"info on {message}")
    embed.add_field(name="Players Online :green_circle:", value=f"The server has {status.players.online} players online", inline=False)
    embed.add_field(name="Server Response :warning:", value=f"The server replied in {status.latency}ms", inline=False)
    await ctx.reply(embed=embed)

@bot.command()
async def bedrock(ctx, message):
    server = BedrockServer.lookup("message")
    status = server.status()
    embed = discord.Embed(title=f"{message}", description=f"info on {message}")
    embed.add_field(name="Players Online :green_circle:", value=f"The server has {status.players.online} players online", inline=False)
    embed.add_field(name="Server Response :warning:", value=f"The server replied in {status.latency}ms", inline=False)
    await ctx.reply(embed=embed)


bot.run(TOKEN)

The following code works fine for me, as you can see here.
