I have been trying to build a discord bot using Python. Unfortunately, I have came across this error in the code which always seem to come up when I run the code.
Here is my error message:
runfile('D:/Isaac Khong/Personal and School/Personal/programming/python/Discord Bots/iK10 Official/ik10-discordbot.py', wdir='D:/Isaac Khong/Personal and School/Personal/programming/python/Discord Bots/iK10 Official')
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "D:\Isaac Khong\Personal and School\Personal\programming\python\Discord Bots\iK10 Official\ik10-discordbot.py", line 56, in <module>
client.run('4e17e1549ce6dc2eff051db897ffb86d90514ac6dbbb68e20d9074af4aea9559')

asyncio.run(runner())
File "C:\Users\isaac\Anacoonda_New\lib\asyncio\runners.py", line 33, in run
raise RuntimeError(
RuntimeError: asyncio.run() cannot be called from a running event loop
This is the code, using the example at https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/stable/quickstart.html:
import discord
intents = discord.Intents.default()
intents.message_content = True
client = discord.Client(intents=intents)
@client.event
async def on_ready():
print(f'We have logged in as {client.user}')
@client.event
async def on_message(message):
if message.author == client.user:
return
if message.content.startswith('$hello'):
await message.channel.send('Hello!')
client.run('My Client ID Here (in a string)')
I have also tried my own code here, which comes up with the same error pointing to the line "client.run("Client ID Here")":
import discord
TOKEN = '1081845655909187594'
GUILD = "iK10 Community"
intents = discord.Intents.default()
client = discord.Client(intents = intents)
@client.event
async def on_ready():
for guild in client.guilds:
if guild.name == GUILD:
break
print(
f'{client.user} is connected to the following guild:\n'
f'{guild.name}(id: {guild.id})'
)
client.run(TOKEN)
I am using Spyder Anaconda. This is my version of discord.py:
(base) C:\Users\isaac>pip show discord.py

Any help will be appreciated. Thanks!
asyncio.run(runner())in the code you provided which is referenced in the error.asyncio.run(runner())is from line 860 of the client.py file indiscord.py's source folder. Which is shown in the traceback.client.runmethod that caused the error is being called from line 56 of the fileik10-discordbot.py, and the code that you provided doesn't seem to have that many lines, is it? Can you provide the full code?
