simple cooldowns and cooldown handlers in discord.py

cooldowns.py

@client.event
async def on_command_error(ctx, error):
	if isinstance(error, commands.CommandOnCooldown):
		await ctx.send(f"{round(error.retry_after, 2)} seconds left")

@client.command()
@commands.cooldown(1, 5, commands.BucketType.user)
async def command(ctx):
	await ctx.send("command output")

# note that commands.cooldown is not really meant for cooldowns over an hour
# and restarting your bot will mess up all the cooldowns currently in place

# 1, 5, BucketType.user means individual users can use this command 1 time every 5 seconds
# check the api reference for more types of buckettypes:
# https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ext/commands/api.html#discord.discord.ext.commands.BucketType

Hello @koer2fine, this gist is extremely outdated. I would recommend you not use this as this was made 3 years ago.

@koer2fine
it is, but the idea is the same, you should get the latest knowledge from the docs of your preferred module!
