Webhook.edit() fires a WEBHOOKS_UPDATE event twice

[damian-kos]

So I have this thing which I struggle for couple days now. I know that it can be done so that will fire this event only once NabBot for example does exactly that. It edits a current webhook by changing it's channel and it fires only once. However when I try to do so, it fires it twice.

intents = discord.Intents.default()
intents.message_content = True
intents = discord.Intents.default()
intents.webhooks = True

bot = commands.Bot(command_prefix='/', intents=intents)

@bot.event
async def on_ready():
    print(f'Logged in as {bot.user.name}')

@bot.event
async def on_message(ctx):
    new_webhook_name ="Test Webhook"
    new_channel = None
    for channel in ctx.guild.channels:
        if channel.name == "search":
            new_channel = channel
    webhooks = await ctx.guild.webhooks()
    for web in webhooks:
        if web.name == "Test Webhook":
            await web.edit(channel=new_channel)
async def on_socket_event_type(event_type):
    print(event_type)
bot.add_listener(on_socket_event_type)

bot.run(TOKEN)

results in

MESSAGE_CREATE
WEBHOOKS_UPDATE
WEBHOOKS_UPDATE

This looks like a bug in the library where it was sending two requests when you edit a channel. It's been fixed in da10065

Sorry, but I don't fully understand this then. I'm using discord 2.2.2 and discord.py 2.2.2. How can I make it work on my side? I'm still beginner.

You can wait for the next update (TBD) or you can install from git. It's better to wait since there's less chance for something to go wrong and break.

I see, thank you
