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

Fork notice
--------------------------

This is a fork of the Discord.py library, which unfortunately has been `officially discontinued <https://gist.github.com/Rapptz/4a2f62751b9600a31a0d3c78100287f1/>`_ at 28th August 2021. Nextcord will replace Discord.py, with **continued support and features**, to still offer former Discord.py-users a stable API wrapper for their bots.

Key Features
-------------

- Modern Pythonic API using ``async`` and ``await``.
- Proper rate limit handling.
- Optimised in both speed and memory.

Installing
----------

**Python 3.8 or higher is required**

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

.. code:: sh

    # Linux/macOS
    python3 -m pip install -U nextcord

    # Windows
    py -3 -m pip install -U nextcord

Otherwise to get voice support you should run the following command:

.. code:: sh

    # Linux/macOS
    python3 -m pip install -U "nextcord[voice]"

    # Windows
    py -3 -m pip install -U nextcord[voice]


To install the development version, do the following:

.. code:: sh

    $ git clone https://github.com/nextcord/nextcord/
    $ cd nextcord
    $ python3 -m pip install -U .[voice]


Optional Packages
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

* `PyNaCl <https://pypi.org/project/PyNaCl/>`__ (for voice support)

Please note that on Linux installing voice you must install the following packages via your favourite package manager (e.g. ``apt``, ``dnf``, etc) before running the above commands:

* libffi-dev (or ``libffi-devel`` on some systems)
* python-dev (e.g. ``python3.6-dev`` for Python 3.6)


Quick Example
~~~~~~~~~~~~~

.. code:: py

    from nextcord.ext import commands


    bot = commands.Bot(command_prefix='$')

    @bot.command()
    async def ping(ctx):
        await ctx.reply('Pong!')

    bot.run('token')
