interactions.py VS Tanjun

Stay tuned with upcoming post about interactions.py and how you can take advantage of the library. If you like this post, be sure to give a heart. If you have any question, let me know in the comment section. Alternatively, you can join the official interactions.py Discord server for further help.

In this post, I will guide you how to make a simple Discord Bot in Python, using a library called interactions.py. Requirements: You need to have a good view with Python first as making a Discord Bot isn't exactly considered as beginner-friendly.

They announced the partnership on the 9th, IIRC, so they might still be in the planning stages. I’ve got no idea what will come of it, nor (to be honest) why it’s happening in the first place. It doesn’t sound like a merger, just an assurance of interoperability.

The other lib I might try also in the future is interactions.py due to its benchmarks and its purity for only being able to support the interactions api. The lib is also rather unstable for now so I'll wait for its full-blown stable release.

I've been working on a help command for my Discord music bot which uses hikari and hikari-tanjun and it's been going fine so far but I added this part to my code and whenever you do /help , it's supposed to show help for that specific command, but it only responds with "Application did not respond" when I try it. I've tried removing the obj argument and removing the parentheses but it just keeps saying "Application did not respond" and I don't know what to do or how to fix it and there is no error. No one in the Hikari server helped when I asked multiple times, so can someone help?

For those wondering you can use hikari with command handlers such as lightbulb or tanjun and component handlers such as miru. They make this library very easy to use and very powerful.

There is also Tanjun, another command handler for Hikari. The syntax is way different from Lightbulb, Personally, i'm not using it but i heard that the Syntax is really good and flexible.

For me, I' m now using hikari because I feel like its a hidden gem cuz of its nice workflow around its command frameworks (lightbulb and tanjun).I haven't tried tanjun but I find both hikari and lightbulb to have a really nice documentation.
