Lavalink client library used in Red-DiscordBot

Red-Lavalink

A Lavalink client library written for Python 3.5 using the AsyncIO framework. This library may be used for other projects as it contains no Red specific code or logic.

However, it is important to note that this library only supports projects using discord.py.

To install:

pip install red-lavalink

Usage

import lavalink
from discord.commands.ext import Bot

bot = Bot()


@bot.event
async def on_ready():
    lavalink.initialize(
        bot, host='localhost', password='password',
        rest_port=2332, ws_port=2333
    )


async def search_and_play(voice_channel, search_terms):
    player = await lavalink.connect(voice_channel)
    tracks = await lavalink.search_yt(search_terms)
    player.add(tracks[0])
    await player.play()

When shutting down, be sure to do the following:

await lavalink.close()
