我正在尝试制作一个 discord 机器人，它会发送一条消息，提醒人们我们的秘密圣诞老人在 1 周内，但它不起作用

Question

I've tried what i can remember but i'm still fairly new to discord.py so I cant spot what the problem is.

import os
import asyncio, datetime
from keep_alive import keep_alive

class MyClient(discord.Client):
    async def on_ready(self):
        print('Logged on as {0}!'.format(self.user))

asyncio.datetime.datetime((2021, 12, 10, 20, 41)                 
  channel = (894709862091591724)
  channel.message.send('@everyone the secret santa is in 1 week!'))

client = MyClient()
keep_alive()
client.run(os.getenv('TOKEN'))

If you want to send messages automatically ( for example every day ). You can use tasks.loop for it. It will run every 24 hours and send your message.

Also, if you make a simple bot and you don't have to use classes it's much easier to create a client with client = commands.Bot() instead of making a class. You also have to use client.get_channel(id) or await client.fetch_channel(id) to use channel.

# imports you need
import discord, asyncio, datetime
from discord.ext import commands, tasks
from keep_alive import keep_alive

client = commands.Bot() # creating client

@tasks.loop(hours=24) # you can change it to minutes or seconds too
async def secret_santa():
    santa = datetime.date(2021, 12, 6) # your date (year, month, day)
    today = datetime.date.today() # gets today's date
    delta = (santa - today).days # calculates number of days to "santa" (I used ".days" to get only number of days)
                
    channel = await client.fetch_channel(894709862091591724)
    await channel.send(f'@everyone the secret santa is in {delta} days')

secret_santa.start() # starting task
keep_alive()
client.run(os.getenv('TOKEN'))
