v2.7.0

What's Changed

This release adds support for python 3.11 and the new selects released by Discord.

See the docs for how to use these new selects.

Breaking Changes

• Properly document that Message.system_content may return None. While this is documented as a breaking change, this function always could return None if the message type was not recognised. (#766)
• Rename InteractionDataResolved.get() to get_by_id(). (#814)

Deprecations

• Rename ApplicationCommandInteractionDataResolved to InteractionDataResolved. (#814)
• [ext.commands] Deprecate the sync_commands, sync_commands_debug, and sync_commands_on_cog_unload parameters of Bot and InteractionBot. These have been replaced with the command_sync_flags parameter which takes a CommandSyncFlags instance. (#806)

New Features

• Update Message.system_content to be accurate to the client as of October 2022. (#766)
  • This also properly documents that it is possible to return None.
• Add type hints to all flag constructors, now supporting type-checking for creating flag classes (e.g. Intents(members=True)) which used to be untyped. (#778)
• Add GuildScheduledEvent.start(), .end and .cancel shortcuts. (#781)
• Support Python 3.11. (#785, #827, #829, #833)
• Improve the cli, allowing the usage of ext.commands.InteractionBot, ext.commands.AutoShardedInteractionBot. (#791)
• Add new select menu components. (#800, #803)
• Add new ComponentType values.
  • Add UserSelectMenu, RoleSelectMenu, MentionableSelectMenu, ChannelSelectMenu components.
  • Add ui.UserSelect, ui.RoleSelect, ui.MentionableSelect, ui.ChannelSelect UI types.
  • Add ui.user_select(), ui.role_select(), ui.mentionable_select(), ui.channel_select() decorators.
  • Add ui.ActionRow.add_user_select(), add_role_select(), add_mentionable_select(), add_channel_select()
  • Renamed string select types for clarity (previous names will continue to work):
    • SelectMenu -> StringSelectMenu
    • ui.Select -> ui.StringSelect
    • ui.select() -> ui.string_select()
    • ui.ActionRow.add_select() -> ui.ActionRow.add_string_select()
  • Add MessageInteraction.resolved_values and MessageInteractionData.resolved.
• Support delete_after parameter when sending ephemeral interaction responses. (#816)
• Allow slowmode_delay parameter of ForumChannel.create_thread() to be optional. (#822)
• Add suppress_embeds parameter to Interaction.edit_original_response() and InteractionMessage.edit(). (#832)
• [ext.commands] Add CommandSyncFlags to provide sync configuration to Bot and InteractionBot (and their autosharded variants) as command_sync_flags. (#265, #433, #468, #806)

Bug Fixes

• Add the missing attributes for PermissionOverwrite: use_application_commands and use_embedded_activities. (#777)
• Ensure that embed fields are copied properly by Embed.copy() and that the copied embed is completely separate from the original one. (#792)
• Fix an issue with Member.ban() erroring when the delete_message_days parameter was provided. (#810)
• Try to get threads used in interactions (like threads in command arguments) from the cache first, before creating a new instance. (#814)
• Fix creation of threads in text channels without Permissions.manage_threads. (#818)
• Fix off-by-one error in AutoModKeywordPresets values. (#820)
• Update event loop handling to avoid warnings when running on Python 3.11. (#827)
• [ext.commands] Fix a case where optional variadic arguments could have infinite loops in parsing depending on the user input. (#825)

Documentation

• Speed up page load by changing hoverxref tooltips to be lazily loaded. (#393)
• Remove reference to the v1.0 migration guide from the main index page, and move legacy changelogs to a separate page. (#697)
• Update sphinx from version 5.1 to 5.3. (#764, #821)Add a note warning mentioning that using a disnake.File object as file kwarg makes a disnake.Embed not reusable. (#786)
• Update broken Discord API Docs links, add :ddocs: role for easily creating links to the API documentation. (#793)
• Add a custom 404 page for when the navigated page does not exist. (#797)

Miscellaneous

• Increase the upper bound for the aiohttp dependency from <3.9 to <4. (#789)
• Use importlib.metadata instead of the deprecated pkg_resources in the cli for displaying the version. (#791)
• [ext.commands] Add missing py.typed marker. (#784)
• [ext.tasks] Add missing py.typed marker. (#784)
