I just got my Discord bot listed on top.gg and I’m trying to figure out how to use dblpy. I’m a bit lost with the documentation. What I want to do is check if a user has voted for my bot in the last 12 hours before they can use certain commands.
Does anyone know how to:
I’m pretty new to this so any help or code examples would be awesome. Thanks!
yo, i’ve messed around with dblpy before. it’s pretty straightforward once u get the hang of it. u gotta initialize the client with ur bot and token, then use get_user_vote() to check if someone voted. just watch out for rate limits tho, they can be a pain. lmk if u need more help!
To verify user votes with dblpy, you’ll need to set up the DBLClient first. Initialize it with your bot instance and top.gg token. Then, use the get_user_vote() method to check if a user has voted in the last 12 hours. Here’s a quick example:
dbl_client = dbl.DBLClient(bot, 'your_topgg_token')
async def check_vote(user_id):
return await dbl_client.get_user_vote(user_id)
You can integrate this into your command checks or use it directly in commands. Remember to handle potential API errors and respect rate limits. If you need more advanced features, the dblpy documentation covers additional methods for working with the top.gg API.
Hey there! I’ve actually implemented vote checking for my Discord bot recently, so I can share some insights.
For connecting to the top.gg API with dblpy, you’ll want to create a DBLClient instance using your bot and API token. Something like:
dbl_client = dbl.DBLClient(bot, 'your_topgg_token')
To check a user’s vote, you can use the get_user_vote() method. It returns a boolean indicating if they’ve voted in the last 12 hours:
has_voted = await dbl_client.get_user_vote(user.id)
I’d recommend wrapping this in a command or check so you can easily verify before allowing certain actions. Just be mindful of rate limits!
Let me know if you need any clarification on implementing this. It took me a bit to figure out at first too.
