How to make a command case insensitive in discord.py
On the rewrite branch, commands.Bot accepts a case_insensitive parameter
bot = commands.Bot(command_prefix='!', case_insensitive=True)Note that there is a performance loss when using this feature.
I am not personally familiar with discord.py, and may be wrong about this.
It looks to me like case-insensitivity is not a feature of discord.py and will not become one in the future, according to this Github thread. And I quote:
I won't add this natively. However in the rewrite supporting this is simple from the user end:
async def on_message(self, message): ctx = await self.get_context(message) if ctx.prefix is not None: ctx.command = self.commands.get(ctx.invoked_with.lower()) await self.invoke(ctx)So it looks to me like you can just provide your own on_message as above, and you should be good to go.
you could also useif message.content.lower().startswith('command'):doesnt necessarily have to be startswith
