🎹 Discord Music Bots Native Support 🥁
At Repl.it we believe programming should useful, fun, and exciting. Discord bots have been something people loved to make with Repl.it ever since we enabled outbound network connections from repls (yes, we used to disable networking).
Discord music bots, however, didn't work very well if at all. At first, OPUS was missing from our Python environment. Then we also inadvertently blocked voice connections from our servers. So all in all it was a pain. However, today, I'm excited to announce that Music Bots natively work on Repl.it.
The only thing that's currently missing from our images is native ffmpeg support, but that can be worked around by installing ffmpeg-static from npm. I just added the following Python repl to templates to make it easy for you to get started.
I know it works in Node.js too but I didn't have the time to make a nice template. If anyone can make a very simple template for Node.js I'd love to include it in our template library.
why i getting this error
"An error occurred: Command raised an exception: DownloadError: [0;31mERROR:[0m Xx9V0fTDJY0: YouTube said: Unable to extract video data"
@ChandralathaKan me to, pls help @amasad

you guys need to upgrade the youtube_dl
List the commands for the bot.
@jai789jai music.help
Is there a way to add Spotify to the bot?
my bot gives me a error saying 'An error occurred: Command raised an exception: RuntimeError: PyNaCl library needed in order to use voice' isnt pynaci downloaded already?

An error occurred: Command raised an exception: DownloadError: [0;31mERROR:[0m iI34LYmJ1Fs: YouTube said: Unable to extract video data
@buzzlightyear14 Use this command in shell terminal: pip install -U youtube-dl
for people who dont know the prefix, it's "music." you can change this by going to: bot = commands.Bot('music.', description='Yet another music bot.')
bot.add_cog(Music(bot))
and changing 'music.' to whatever prefix you want it to be
@burgerkingwhopp
where in the code is that line?
i cant seem to find it
@AnakinSteve
last or second last line, near the end
When the bot tried to play the next song it raises this error
@Alvinzzzzz
same error, id love to get an answer on how to fix this
With native OPUS, networking, and native always up Repls... Repl might just be suitable for hosting a powerful bot.
@xxpertHacker It might be able to host a small bot (a bot in like 20 servers) but it can't host big bots (a bot in like 200+ servers) because of memory and ram.
@PDanielY Yeah, there's also that, I forgot.
@xxpertHacker Containers have limits. Don't push them.
@firefish I don't know, we run some production work on Repl.it on a single container and it serves lots of users. We also have a lot of big bots already hosted on repl.it.
I would try it. If your code is efficient it should work especially with the hacker plan.
In the future, we'll probably have to introduce an even bigger plan.
@amasad @firefish The biggest problem with most bots hosted here is the actual code and language, usually, they're written in inefficient languages (ex: Python, JS), but what's worse is they're often set up in very inefficient ways.
If you set it up correctly, plan ahead, and know what you're doing, it can perform very well, but this applies even outside of Repl.it.
@amasad my bot has grown a lot and it's all on repl :D
My bot gives me an error saying: An error occurred: Command raised an exception: DownloadError: [0;31mERROR:[0m query "Godzilla": Failed to parse JSON (caused by JSONDecodeError('Expecting value: line 1 column 1 (char 0)'))
Yeah me [email protected]

Tried to create a discord bot to play music (https://repl.it/@PDanielY/EasygoingPlumHashmaps#index.js).
@PDanielY oh wait, i forgot to install ffmpeg-static but i fixed it. so nodejs template: https://repl.it/@PDanielY/discord-music-bot-template
ayup, can someone explain this problem and how to fix it?

Why is my bot giving me this error in the Discord Chat ("An error occurred: Command raised an exception: RuntimeError: PyNaCl library needed in order to use voice") and in the Console, it says ("export PATH="$PWD/node_modules/ffmpeg-static:$PATH" python main.py")?? can anyone please help?
You cannot make .env files anymore, so can somebody help???
Im so confused. I got my bot into my discord server, but the bot seems to not want to work. Any tips on how to make the bot run?
