Client API Reference#

GatewayBotLike #

Bases: hikari.RESTAware, hikari.EventManagerAware, t.Protocol

A type that implements both RESTAware and EventManagerAware.

Client #

Client(
    app: GatewayBotLike | hikari.InteractionServerAware,
    *,
    ignore_unknown_interactions: bool = False,
    stop_bound_on_delete: bool = True,
    injector: alluka.abc.Client | None = None
)

The miru client.

It is responsible for handling component and modal interactions and dispatching them to the correct item handler.

PARAMETER	DESCRIPTION
`app`	The currently running app instance that will be used to receive interactions. TYPE: `GatewayBotLike \| hikari.InteractionServerAware`
`ignore_unknown_interactions`	Whether to ignore unknown interactions. If True, unknown interactions will be ignored and no warnings will be logged. TYPE: `bool` DEFAULT: `False`
`stop_bound_on_delete`	Whether to automatically stop bound views when the message it is bound to is deleted. This only applies to Gateway bots. When an app without EventManagerAware is used, this will be ignored. TYPE: `bool` DEFAULT: `True`
`injector`	The injector to use for dependency injection. If None, a new injector will be created. TYPE: `alluka.Client \| None` DEFAULT: `None`

is_rest `property` #

is_rest: bool

Whether the app is a rest client or a gateway client.

This controls the client response flow, if True, Client.handle_component_interaction and Client.handle_modal_interaction will return interaction response builders to be sent back to Discord, otherwise they will return None.

Note

This convenience method only works if the Tanjun client was created with a bot object, not constructed manually.

PARAMETER	DESCRIPTION
`client`	The Tanjun client to create the miru client from. TYPE: `tanjun.Client`

PARAMETER	DESCRIPTION
`view`	The view to start. TYPE: `View`

RAISES	DESCRIPTION
`ValueError`	If the view is not persistent and `bind_to` is set to None.
`!!! note`	A view can only be unbound if it is persistent, meaning that it has a timeout of None and all it's items have explicitly defined custom_ids. If a view is not persistent, it must be bound to a message.
