[KosmicAnomaly]

Summary

Trying to use on_interaction with new components raises NotFound until the bot is restarted

Reproduction Steps

Create a dropdown menu, then try to interact with it and catch the interaction using on_interaction()

Minimal Reproducible Code

No response

Expected Results

Not have an error

Actual Results

Could you provide some code so that I can try and repro this, this is what the "Minimal reproducible code" section is for y'know

On other note, why are you handling your components in on_interaction???

[KosmicAnomaly]

yeah sure! And I am handling my components in on_interaction because it is the method that makes most sense to me.

from discord.commands import slash_command
from discord.ext.commands import Cog, guild_only
from discord.ui import Select, View

class CoolDropdown(Select):
    def __init__(self):
        optionList = [SelectOption(
            label="thing1", value="Option 1"), SelectOption(
            label="thing2", value="Option 2")]

        super().__init__(
            placeholder="choose one",
            min_values=0,
            max_values=1,
            options=optionList
        )

class CoolView(View):
    def __init__(self):
        super().__init__()

        self.add_item(CoolDropdown())

class randomthing(Cog):
    def __init__(self, bot):
        self.BlackHole = bot

    @slash_command(name="make-dropdown")
    @guild_only()
    async def make_dropdown(self, ctx: ApplicationContext):

        await ctx.defer(ephemeral=True)

        view = CoolView()
        await ctx.send(content="yeet", view=view)
        await ctx.respond("dropdown created!", ephemeral=True)

    @Cog.listener()
    async def on_interaction(self, interaction: Interaction):
        if not interaction.is_component():
            return
        if not interaction.guild:
            return

        response = interaction.response

        await response.send_message("yayeet")

def setup(bot):
    bot.add_cog(randomthing(bot))

This code doesn't correspond to your traceback, which shows that the erroring line is await response.edit_message(embed=embed).

[KosmicAnomaly]

Sorry, I had changed my code because I needed to create some minimal code. The error is the same tho. Here's the new traceback

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "C:\Users\nvrgonnagiveuup\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python39\lib\site-packages\discord\client.py", line 352, in _run_event

  File "C:\Users\nvrgonnagiveuup\Desktop\Code\DiscordBots\BlackHole\Modules\Utility\randomthing.py", line 51, in on_interaction
    await response.send_message("yayeet")

You can just override the callback method of discord.ui.Select if you want something called when someone selects an item, you can get what was selected with self.values.

[KosmicAnomaly]

The issue is in on_interaction, I don't need to use callback

[1oonie]

I think that this might be because the view auto-defers the interaction for you, I guess just don't use on_interaction.

[KosmicAnomaly]

Why would it start working perfectly fine after a reboot then?

[1oonie]

likely because the library doesn't know about the components after you restart and doesn't attach them to a view object (that does the auto deferring)

[KosmicAnomaly]

Is there a way to disable the auto-deferring?

[1oonie]

No.

[KosmicAnomaly]

Hmm. The reason I am using on_interaction instead of callback is because I have calls to my database (which is attached to my Bot object) every time the dropdown is used. I don't think I can send that to my view easily. And, I can also avoid using persistent views this way.

[KosmicAnomaly]

I have found a solution

class CoolView(View):
    def __init__(self):
        super().__init__()

        self.add_item(CoolDropdown())
        self.stop()

[1oonie]

This is a horrible solution, find a better way to get your bot object instead, ex. ctx.bot

[KosmicAnomaly]

It is a glorious solution

[Dorukyum]

It is highly suggested to use the callback attribute of the component and not on_interaction.
