如何让我的 discord.py 机器人向我重复触发词？

Question

So I want my discord.py bot to use the word that triggered the listener response in the message it sends.

For example:

@commands.Cog.listener()
async def on_message(self, message):
    if message.author == self.bot.user:
        return
    msg = message.content
    
    trigger = ["cat", "dog", "Snake", "Rabbit"]
    
    embed = discord.Embed(description=f"{animal} is the best animal!")

    if any(word in msg for word in trigger):
        await message.channel.send(embed=embed)

At this point all I need to do is to define what animal is. I know that I could write a custom answer for every single word but I would have to write it for every animal I add in the list which would take a long time. So I want to have the code to pick up the word that triggered the response in the first place.

So when I type 'I love my cat' the bot responds with 'cat is the best animal!'

It's probably super simple and I just can't see it but thanks for your help in advance!

It seems like you were along the correct lines of thinking. All you have to do is iterate through the list of animals; if one of the animals is contained with message.content , format the animal into the embed and send the embed.

@commands.Cog.listener()
async def on_message(self, message):
    if message.author == self.bot.user:
        return
    
    trigger = ["cat", "dog", "Snake", "Rabbit"]
    
    for animal in trigger:
        if animal in message.content:
            embed = discord.Embed(description=f"{animal} is the best animal!")
            await message.channel.send(embed=embed)
