python discord deafen command

Question

I want to make a command that can make some user deafen and muted, and I can say $deafen @here or $deafen @everyone and make corresponding person deafen and muted.

@bot.command()
async def deafen(ctx, member: discord.Member):
   await member.edit(deafen=True)

Answer 1

According to the Discord documentation, discord.Member has a edit function that allows you to pass a boolean for deafen to change it

As a simple proof of concept, the following should theoretically deafen the person:

@bot.command()
async def deafen(ctx, usr : discord.Member):
    await usr.edit(deafen=True)

Of course, you'll have to work the command into your own code
