<div class="section" id="id1">
<h2>Creating a new Command<a class="headerlink" href="#id1" title="Permalink to this headline"></a></h2>
<p>First, think of a <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">name</span></code> for your command.
It’s the name your command will be called with: for example, the “spaghetti” command will be called by typing <strong>/spaghetti</strong> in chat.
Try to keep the name as short as possible, while staying specific enough so no other command will have the same name.</p>
<p>Next, create a new Python file with the <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">name</span></code> you have thought of.
The previously mentioned “spaghetti” command should have a file called <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">spaghetti.py</span></code>.</p>
<p>Then, in the first row of the file, import the <a class="reference internal" href="../apireference.html#royalnet.commands.Command" title="royalnet.commands.Command"><code class="xref py py-class docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">Command</span></code></a> class from royalnet, and create a new class inheriting from it:</p>
<div class="highlight-default notranslate"><div class="highlight"><pre><span></span><span class="kn">import</span> <span class="nn">royalnet.commands</span> <span class="k">as</span> <span class="nn">rc</span>

<span class="o">...</span>
</pre></div>
</div>
<p>Inside the class, override the attributes <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">name</span></code> and <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">description</span></code> with respectively the <strong>name of the command</strong> and a <strong>small description of what the command will do</strong>:</p>
<div class="highlight-default notranslate"><div class="highlight"><pre><span></span><span class="kn">import</span> <span class="nn">royalnet.commands</span> <span class="k">as</span> <span class="nn">rc</span>

<span class="n">description</span> <span class="o">=</span> <span class="s2">&quot;Send a spaghetti emoji in the chat.&quot;</span>

</div>
<p>Now override the <a class="reference internal" href="../apireference.html#royalnet.commands.Command.run" title="royalnet.commands.Command.run"><code class="xref py py-meth docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">Command.run()</span></code></a> method, adding the code you want the bot to run when the command is called.</p>
<p>To send a message in the chat the command was called in, you can use the <a class="reference internal" href="../apireference.html#royalnet.commands.CommandData.reply" title="royalnet.commands.CommandData.reply"><code class="xref py py-meth docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">CommandData.reply()</span></code></a> coroutine:</p>
<div class="highlight-default notranslate"><div class="highlight"><pre><span></span><span class="kn">import</span> <span class="nn">royalnet.commands</span> <span class="k">as</span> <span class="nn">rc</span>
<span class="k">class</span> <span class="nc">SpaghettiCommand</span><span class="p">(</span><span class="n">rc</span><span class="o">.</span><span class="n">Command</span><span class="p">):</span>
<span class="n">name</span> <span class="o">=</span> <span class="s2">&quot;spaghetti&quot;</span>
<span class="n">description</span> <span class="o">=</span> <span class="s2">&quot;Send a spaghetti emoji in the chat.&quot;</span>
<span class="k">async</span> <span class="k">def</span> <span class="nf">run</span><span class="p">(</span><span class="bp">self</span><span class="p">,</span> <span class="n">args</span><span class="p">:</span> <span class="n">rc</span><span class="o">.</span><span class="n">CommandArgs</span><span class="p">,</span> <span class="n">data</span><span class="p">:</span> <span class="n">rc</span><span class="o">.</span><span class="n">CommandData</span><span class="p">):</span>

</pre></div>
</div>
<p>Finally, open the <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">commands/__init__.py</span></code> file, and import your command there, then add a reference to your imported
command to the <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">available_commands</span></code> list:</p>
<div class="highlight-default notranslate"><div class="highlight"><pre><span></span><span class="c1"># Imports go here!</span>

</div>
</div>
<div class="section" id="command-arguments">
<h2>Command arguments<a class="headerlink" href="#command-arguments" title="Permalink to this headline"></a></h2>
<p>A command can have some arguments passed by the user: for example, on Telegram an user may type <cite>/spaghetti carbonara al-dente</cite>
to pass the <a class="reference external" href="https://docs.python.org/3.8/library/stdtypes.html#str" title="(in Python v3.8)"><code class="xref py py-class docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">str</span></code></a> <cite>“carbonara al-dente”</cite> to the command code.</p>
<p>These arguments can be accessed in multiple ways through the <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">args</span></code> parameter passed to the <a class="reference internal" href="../apireference.html#royalnet.commands.Command.run" title="royalnet.commands.Command.run"><code class="xref py py-meth docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">Command.run()</span></code></a>
method.</p>
<p>If you want your command to use arguments, override the <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">syntax</span></code> class attribute with a brief description of the
syntax of your command, possibly using {curly braces} for required arguments and [square brackets] for optional
ones.</p>

<h2>Coroutines and slow operations<a class="headerlink" href="#coroutines-and-slow-operations" title="Permalink to this headline"></a></h2>
<p>You may have noticed that in the previous examples we used <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">await</span> <span class="pre">data.reply(&quot;🍝&quot;)</span></code> instead of just <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">data.reply(&quot;🍝&quot;)</span></code>.</p>

can be executed separately from the rest of the code, allowing the bot to do other things in the meantime.</p>
<p>By adding the <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">await</span></code> keyword before the <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">data.reply(&quot;🍝&quot;)</span></code>, we tell the bot that it can do other things, like
receiving new messages, while the message is being sent.</p>
<p>You should avoid running slow normal functions inside bot commands, as they will stop the bot from working until they
are finished and may cause bugs in other parts of the code!</p>

<div class="section" id="delete-the-invoking-message">
<h2>Delete the invoking message<a class="headerlink" href="#delete-the-invoking-message" title="Permalink to this headline"></a></h2>
<p>The invoking message of a command is the message that the user sent that the bot recognized as a command; for example,
