How do I get user input from discord chat in python?

Question

I am new to python and using the discord api. I am making a bot where I collect league of legends data and I already created the function where I can collect the data like Summoners Information and Ranked details. I am just having hard time figuring it out and I have been looking every where that could help me.

async def on_message(message):
    if message.author == client.user:
        return
    
    if message.content.startswith('!stats'):
        await message.channel.send(requestSummonerData("Munns"))
        await message.channel.send("-----------------------------------")
        await message.channel.send(requestRankData("Munns"))

This is my current code at the moment, so far I am just hard coding the name and the information printing part is working perfectly but I would like to do something like.stats xyz and it would print information for that person, Honestly. any advice would help me because cause in the end I am just trying to learn python and discords api. Thank you so much!

Answer 1

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

@client.command() 
async def stats(ctx, user):
    await ctx.send("put your msges here")

here's a slightly better way to do it and should get the job done now you just need to do !stats and it will send the message you send
