This is interactions-files, an extension library for interactions.py allowing files in interaction responses.

By default, interactions.py does not allow you to send files in CommandContext and ComponentContext. This extension exists to solve that problem by adding files field to the .send() and .edit().

You can load interactions-files like every other Extension by using:

client.load('interactions.ext.files')

After that, you can start sending files in Context. For example of doing this, go to this.

Alternatively, you can use the functions provided by the Extension. Take a look at an example below:

import io
import interactions
from interactions.ext.files import command_send

client = interactions.Client(token="Pfft!")

@client.command(
    name="file",
    description="Send a file.",
)
async def _test(ctx: interactions.CommandContext):
    txt = io.StringIO("This is a text file.")
    file = interactions.File(filename="file.txt", fp=txt)
    await command_send(ctx, "Below is a file.", files=file)

client.start()
