How to convert a discord message object into a string?

Question

I'm using the method kernel.respond(message) from the module aiml .

the message variable here is of type discord.message.Message but the method kernel.respond(message) can only have a string argument.

How can I convert the discord.message.Message object into string?

Answer 1

You most likely want to get the actual message string rather than convert the Message object into a string representation. You should look at the documentation to find how to do it. Specifically, the documentation of the Message class has some good information.

Answer 2

If you have a discord.Message instance, then you can use content to get the string representation of the message body

content = message.content
