i've tried installing brotli and updating aiohttp, both fail

Have same issue from today morning. specs: windows 11 python 3.11 discord.py-self - 2.0.0

I retraced the action that the utils.py is performing to pull the build number and Discord may have changed the content of the .js file its scraping it from. Here is the relevant snippet that the code is currently pulling which is the source of the error:

DEV_NOTICE_STAGING:"Staging {buildNumber}",NOTIF_CENTER_V2_VIEW_SUMMARY

Looking at the code itself on line 1474:

async def _get_build_number(session: ClientSession) -> int:  # Thank you Discord-S.C.U.M
    """Fetches client build number"""
    try:
        login_page_request = await session.get('https://discord.com/login', timeout=7)
        login_page = await login_page_request.text()
        build_url = 'https://discord.com/assets/' + re.compile(r'assets/+([a-z0-9]+)\.js').findall(login_page)[-2] + '.js'
        build_request = await session.get(build_url, timeout=7)
        build_file = await build_request.text()
        build_index = build_file.find('buildNumber') + 24
        return int(build_file[build_index : build_index + 6])
    except asyncio.TimeoutError:
        _log.critical('Could not fetch client build number. Falling back to hardcoded value...')
        return 9999

The exception handler is only catching asyncio.TimeoutError which means when the integer conversion fails, the whole thing fails.

Using the same .js file that is being evaluated, I found this line of code:

log("[BUILD INFO] Release Channel: ".concat(L,", Build Number: ").concat("244358",", Version Hash: ").concat("c189fc12370cb266be57cc968e278e86f7030f9b")),t.default.setTags({appContext:l.CURRENT_APP_CONTEXT}),S.default.initBasic(),N.default.init(),I.FocusRingManager.init(),O.init(),(0,R.cleanupTempFiles)()},599417:function(e,_,E){"use strict";E.r(_),E.d(_,{default:function(){return r}});var t=E("872717"),o=E("49111"),n=E("782340");class r extends t.default.V8APIError

The number 244358 does align with what Discord is telling me the build number is (and that number appears multiple times in that file near the text "Build Number"), so there are probably two fixes to be made, here:

1. Extend the error handling to allow for other failures. If it can return a hardcoded value on timeout, why not always allow it?
2. Add the necessary check to the function to account for both versions of the content: build_index = build_file.find('Build Number') + 25

I'm using discord.py-self 2.0.0, Python 3.11.5 and it's working for me somehow. Had problems yesterday when the Auth/API was down but since then worked perfectly again.

god!

[dolfies]

Fixed in #596

[Doocter]

Fixed in #596

Also add it to "Releases" and to "PyPi" so to those who install via PIP can use it, I am sure 99% people install via PIP

how how do I do that?

[jorney223]

where should I insert it

where should I insert it

Just install the development version here is guide: https://github.com/dolfies/discord.py-self#installing

To install the development version, do the following:

$ git clone https://github.com/dolfies/discord.py-self
$ cd discord.py-self
$ python3 -m pip install -U .

Has this bug been fixed? I encountered the same problem。and I have cloned the developer version, but it doesn't work。Maybe my network connection is not up to this address, I need someone help🙏🏻
