Ho To Get A Role Of A User discord python

Question

I'm tying to add a command for specific users by role

I'm Trying This code

import os
import discord

intents = discord.Intents.all()
client = discord.Client(command_prefix='.',intents=intents)


@client.event
async def on_message(message):
    if message.author == client.user:
        return
    if message.content.startswith('.start') and 'Premium' in message.author.roles:
      await message.channel.send("Server Is Starting")
    else: 
      await message.channel.send("You need a MOD role to use this command")

client.run('my token')

when i wrote the command in discord i got (You need a MOD role to use this command)

and when i try to test if i have the role by adding (print(message.author.roles[1])) i got (Premium)

Working through this, step by step:

• message is a Message.
• For messages sent within servers, message.author is a Member.
• message.author.roles is a list of Roles, not a list of strs.
• All Role objects have an attribute name, which is a str.

Therefore, a fixed version of the code would be:

import os
import discord

intents = discord.Intents.all()
client = discord.Client(command_prefix='.',intents=intents)


@client.event
async def on_message(message):
    if message.author == client.user:
        return
    if message.content.startswith('.start') and any(role.name=='Premium' for role in message.author.roles):
      await message.channel.send("Server Is Starting")
    else: 
      await message.channel.send("You need a MOD role to use this command")

client.run('my token')
