member is a required arg that is missing

I have a problem with my bot because I don't want to load certain variables that are specified. If you see any errors in the code, I'd be very grateful if you could help.
Error: discord.ext.commands.errors.MissingRequiredArgument: member is a required argument that is missing.
Here is code:
#!/usr/bin/python
import os
import discord
from discord.ext import commands
from discord.ext.commands import Bot
from dotenv import load_dotenv
load_dotenv()
TOKEN = os.getenv('')
bot = commands.Bot(command_prefix = "/")
client = commands.Bot(command_prefix = "/")
#bot.event
async def on_ready():
print("----------------------")
print("Zalogowano jako:")
print("Użytkownik: %s"%client.user.name)
print("ID: %s"%client.user.id)
print("----------------------")
#bot.command(name='tutorial', help='Tutorial')
async def tutorial(ctx, member: discord.Member):
message = await ctx.send('flag_gb In which language do you want to receive the instructions?')
message = await ctx.send('flag_gb W jakim języku chcesz otrzymać instrukcje?')
flag_pl = 'flag_pl'
flag_gb = 'flag_gb'
await message.add_reaction(flag_pl)
await message.add_reaction(flag_gb)
def check(reaction, user):
return user == ctx.author and str(
reaction.emoji) in [flag_pl, flag_gb]
member = ctx.author
while True:
try:
reaction, user = await client.wait_for("reaction_add", timeout=10.0, check=check)
if str(reaction.emoji) == flag_pl:
em = discord.Embed(tittle = "flag_pl", description = "**1**")
em.add_field(name = "Opcja 1", value = "Link" );
await member.send(embed=em)
if str(reaction.emoji) == flag_gb:
em = discord.Embed(tittle = "flag_gb", description = "**2**")
em.add_field(name = "Opcja 2", value = "Link" );
await member.send(embed=em)
except:
print("Wystapil blad!")
bot.run('TOKEN')

discord.ext.commands.errors.MissingRequiredArgument: member is a required argument that is missing means that you have to put the name of the member after the command (e.g. /tutorial user123 instead of /tutorial #user123). Also, an error you made is in
flag_pl = 'flag_pl'
and
flag_gb = 'flag_gb'
The emojis in discord always begin and end with :, so it should be
flag_gb = ':flag_gb:'
and
flag_pl = ':flag_pl:'

discord.py bot random image from a folder but each file can only be shown once

I'm fairly new to python and I can't seem to figure out how to make this work. any help?
I'm trying to make a command that makes my discord bot display a random image from a folder. There are around 2000 images in the folder. I want everyone to be able to use the command only once. The images are all unique and I don't want people getting the same image. how would I do this?

How do I get the message content of a channel in discord.py

This is my code but it is returning the message id's instead of the message content
#bot.command(name="jpg")
async def jpg_File(message):
channel = bot.get_channel(699577970117050399)
messages = await channel.history(limit=500).flatten()
print(messages)
This is what I get from printing messages: <Message id=937077040878866442 channel=<TextChannel id=699577970117050399 name='memes' position=2 nsfw=False news=False category_id=699624938583359608

You need to access the content attribute of the message object.
async def jpg_File(message):
channel = bot.get_channel(699577970117050399)
messages = await channel.history(limit=500).flatten()
print(messages)
for i in messages:
print(i.content)

#client.event
async def on_message(message: discord.Message):
channel = discord.utils.get(message.guild.text_channels, name="general")
messages = await channel.history(limit=500).flatten()
for message in messages:
if not message.attachments:
print(message.author, message.content)
else:
print(message.author, message.attachments)

Discord bot does not accept commands when other command is running

I'm developing a discord bot that can find spotify playlists and queue the tracks' youtube counterparts. I have a loop running that uses a list of tracknames to search for a video on youtube, it then grabs the top result and sends to an asynchronous function that plays it. However, whilst the bot is in this loop it does not accept other commands. Can I make this run concurrently with other commands? The following is all the code of my application

I would definitely suggest using the module threading. I do not currently have enough time to read your code and put it in, though I might edit this answer later.
Refer to:
https://docs.python.org/3/library/threading.html
Threading allows you to run multiple functions at once.

You're using blocking libraries. Discord.py is a asynchronous library and you need to use things that don't block your code. In Frequently Asked Questions you can see a example using requests library, that's blocking and you should use aiohttp to make asynchronous requests instead.

How to send a message to Server with Websocket

I'm trying to send messages to a Server to get answers.
I've tried to use official websocket APIs from the site but I don't understand them or can't make them work as I wish, so I'm trying to build it.
import asyncio
import websockets
async def test():
async with websockets.connect('wss://www.bitmex.com/realtime') as websocket:
await websocket.send("ping")
#OR await websocket.send({"op": "subscribe", "args": [<SubscriptionTopic>]})
response = await websocket.recv()
print(response)
asyncio.get_event_loop().run_until_complete(test())
I recieve that I'm connected but I don't recieve "pong" as an answer to "ping", nor "Good you are subscribed to this Topic" as I recieve when trying the commands on a echo website.
#!/usr/bin/env python3
import asyncio
import websockets
import json
var = []
async def test():
async with websockets.connect('wss://www.bitmex.com/realtime') as websocket:
response = await websocket.recv()
print(response)
await websocket.send(json.dumps({"op": "subscribe", "args": "trade:TRXH19"}))
response = await websocket.recv()
resp = await websocket.recv()
print(json.loads(resp))
sum=0
while True:
resp = await websocket.recv()
jj = json.loads(resp)["data"][0]
var.append(jj)
size = jj["size"]
side = jj["side"]
coin = jj["symbol"]
if side=="Buy":
sum+=size
else:
sum-=size
print(coin)
print(size)
print(side)
print("Totale = ", sum )
while True:
asyncio.get_event_loop().run_until_complete(test())
print(var)
print("Ciclo Finito!!!!")

That's because you have to read received data after every send.
#!/usr/bin/env python3
import asyncio
import websockets
import json
var = []
async def test():
async with websockets.connect('wss://www.bitmex.com/realtime') as websocket:
response = await websocket.recv()
print(response)
await websocket.send("ping")
response = await websocket.recv()
print(response)
var.append(response)
await websocket.send(json.dumps({"op": "subscribe", "args": "test"}))
response = await websocket.recv()
print(response)
asyncio.get_event_loop().run_until_complete(test())
print(var)
Output:
{"info":"Welcome to the BitMEX Realtime API.","version":"2019-02-12T19:21:05.000Z","timestamp":"2019-02-17T14:38:32.696Z","docs":"https://www.bitmex.com/app/wsAPI","limit":{"remaining":37}}
pong
{"status":400,"error":"Unknown table: test","meta":{},"request":{"op":"subscribe","args":"test"}}
['pong']
Edit - code with handling websockets fall and multiple data:
#!/usr/bin/env python3
import asyncio
import websockets
import json
total = 0
async def test():
async with websockets.connect('wss://www.bitmex.com/realtime') as websocket:
response = await websocket.recv()
print(response)
await websocket.send(json.dumps({"op": "subscribe", "args": "trade:TRXH19"}))
response = await websocket.recv()
#resp = await websocket.recv()
#print(json.loads(resp))
global total
while True:
resp = await websocket.recv()
print(resp)
for jj in json.loads(resp)["data"]:
size = jj["size"]
side = jj["side"]
coin = jj["symbol"]
if side == "Buy":
total += size
else:
total -= size
print(coin)
print(size)
print(side)
print("Totale = ", total)
while True:
loop = asyncio.new_event_loop()
try:
loop.run_until_complete(test())
except Exception as e:
print(e)
loop.close()
#finally:
print(total)
print("Ciclo Finito!!!!")
