语法错误 discord.py

Question

I'm new to coding and I'm creating a Discord bot and I still get a Syntax error, here is the code:

import discord
import os 
from discord.ext import commands

client = commands.Bot(command_prefix = "/")

@client.event
async def on_ready():
  print("Bot is online!")
  for filename in os.listdir("./cogs"):
    if filename.endswith(".py"):
      try:
        client.load_extension(f"cogs.{filename[:-3]}")
        print(f"Loaded {filename}")
        except Exception as e:
          print(f"Failed to load {filename}")
          print(f"[ERROR] {e}")
          
          client.run("token")

And this is the error

  File "main.py", line 15
    except: Exception as e:
    ^
SyntaxError: invalid syntax

Answer 1

try:
    client.load_extension(f"cogs.{filename[:-3]}")
    print(f"Loaded {filename}")
except Exception as e:
    print(f"Failed to load {filename}")
    print(f"[ERROR] {e}")

The except is supposeod to be outside the try chunk. The except cannot find any try in the scope similarly the try doesnt find any except in its scope

The indentation can differ from ide to ide

Answer 2

This might happen because Python indentation is not done right. Your try and except is has a different indentation, make sure the except statement is at the same level as the try one.

Corrected code:

import discord
import os 
from discord.ext import commands

client = commands.Bot(command_prefix = "/")

@client.event
async def on_ready():
  print("Bot is online!")
  for filename in os.listdir("./cogs"):
    if filename.endswith(".py"):
      try:
        client.load_extension(f"cogs.{filename[:-3]}")
        print(f"Loaded {filename}")
      except Exception as e:
        print(f"Failed to load {filename}")
        print(f"[ERROR] {e}")
          
client.run("token")

Reference on Python indentation.
