bot.before_invoke function runs twice with slash sub commands causing a whole bunch of issues #2134

Revnoplex · 2023-06-20T12:43:30Z

Summary

the bot.before_invoke function gets called twice during the invocation of a slash sub command

Reproduction Steps

This seems to only occur on master and not stable 2.4.1

Have a pre-invocation function with the @bot.before_invoke decorator
Have any slash command group
add a print statement to the pre-invocation function or add context.defer()
print statement will print twice or InteractionResponded will be raised

Minimal Reproducible Code

# in main file
#...

client: bridge.Bot = bridge.Bot(command_prefix=config.prefix, intents=intents, description=bot_desc, help_command=information.RevnobotHelp3(), debug_guilds=config.slash_guilds,max_messages=10**3, enable_debug_events=config.debug_mode)

# ...

@client.before_invoke
async def pre_invocation(ctx):
    print("i executed")

# in cog 

test_group = discord.SlashCommandGroup('test-group', "Hello Worlds")

@test_group.command(name="test1", description="Hello World 1")
@commands.cooldown(**config.default_cooldown_options)
@commands.bot_has_permissions(send_messages=True, attach_files=True)
async def test_1(self, ctx: discord.ApplicationContext):
    await ctx.respond("Hello World 1")

Expected Results

i executed should only print once meaning

Actual Results

i executed prints twice
or the following traceback if you use ctx.defer()

Did you also set a cog_before_invoke method inside the cog? Can't repro normally.

Revnoplex · 2023-06-21T03:00:36Z

I will have to check

Not sure if this helps but I managed to capture stack traces both times the function was called
The difference appears to be near the end.

I think #2091 might play a part in this. ~~why do my PRs always have gotchas~~

From my understanding, Slash command group is also considered a command. So before_invoke will also be called for it.

Can you check if this issue occurred before that pr?

Revnoplex · 2023-06-22T11:17:38Z

Can confirm that it doesn't occur on #2117 (the commit before #2091) and that it occurs on #2091 and later

OmLanke · 2023-06-22T12:39:00Z

Considering how the library deals with Slash groups, this seems logical. A Slash group is just another "command". And #2091 adds features that make it even more like a command. I also intend to add a ext.commands style callback to Slash groups.

So it only makes sense to run functions set using @bot.before_invoke before the Slash group too.

I will wait for core devs to decide whether this is a feature or a bug.

PS - using InteractionResponse related methods like ctx.defer() inside before_invoke is not a good idea anyways. You might want to use checks or smth

Since the slash group itself is not being invoked, before_invoke should not be called for it

Revnoplex · 2023-06-25T08:34:17Z

Wdym By checks?

OmLanke · 2023-06-25T09:26:00Z

The check feature of ext.commands. Like @bot.check

Revnoplex · 2023-06-25T11:43:54Z

you mean do the defer() in a check?
