A modern, easy to use, feature-rich, and async-ready API wrapper for Discord written in Python.

Key Features


  • Proper rate limit handling.
  • Type-safety measures.
  • FastAPI-like slash command syntax.
The syntax and structure of discord.py 2.0 is preserved.

Installing


Python 3.10 or higher is required.

To install the library without full voice support, you can just run the following command:

sh

Linux/macOS

python3 -m pip install -U disnake

Windows

py -3 -m pip install -U disnake

Installing disnake with full voice support requires you to replace disnake here, with disnake[voice]. To learn more about voice support (or installing the development version), please visit this section of our guide.

Note that voice support on Linux requires installation of libffi-dev and python-dev packages, via your preferred package manager (e.g. apt, dnf, etc.) before running the following commands.

Versioning


This project does not quite follow semantic versioning; for more details, see version guarantees.

To be on the safe side and avoid unexpected breaking changes, pin the dependency to a minor version (e.g. disnake==a.b.* or disnake~=a.b.c) or an exact version (e.g. disnake==a.b.c).

Quick Example


Slash Commands Example

py
import disnake
from disnake.ext import commands

bot = commands.InteractionBot(test_guilds=[12345])

@bot.slash_command() async def ping(inter): await inter.response.send_message("Pong!")

bot.run("BOT_TOKEN")

Context Menus Example

py
import disnake
from disnake.ext import commands

bot = commands.InteractionBot(test_guilds=[12345])

@bot.user_command() async def avatar(inter, user): embed = disnake.Embed(title=str(user)) embed.setimage(url=user.displayavatar.url) await inter.response.send_message(embed=embed)

bot.run("BOT_TOKEN")

Prefix Commands Example

py
import disnake
from disnake.ext import commands

bot = commands.Bot(commandprefix=commands.whenmentioned)

@bot.command() async def ping(ctx): await ctx.send("Pong!")

bot.run("BOT_TOKEN")
