I am writing a small message logging program, I want the bot to only log messages from a specific Guild and for that, I check for the message.guild.id
. This, however, raises a problem when there is a message sent in a DM Channel. I want the bot to ignore the Dm channel completely but I did not have much luck in that
The Code:
@commands.Cog.listener()
async def on_message(self, message):
if message.guild.id == Guild ID HERE:
print(f"{message.author} said --- {message.clean_content} --- in #{message.channel.name}")
elif message.channel.type is discord.ChannelType.private:
pass
Ignoring exception in on_message
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "C:\Python38\lib\site-packages\discord\client.py", line 312, in _run_event
await coro(*args, **kwargs)
File "d:\Documents\Bots\DS BOT\cog\Listener.py", line 13, in on_message
if message.guild.id == Guild ID HERE:
AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'id'

You can just do
if message.guild:
# message is from a server
else:
# message is from a dm.
That's it. There's no need of checking for types.
