purge command discord.py
You can treat single argument callables (like int) like converters for the purpose of declaring arguments. I also changed your permissions check to be handled automatically by a commands.check
@bot.command(pass_context=True)
@commands.has_permissions(administrator=True)
async def clean(ctx, limit: int):
await ctx.channel.purge(limit=limit)
await ctx.send('Cleared by {}'.format(ctx.author.mention))
await ctx.message.delete()
@clean.error
async def clear_error(ctx, error):
if isinstance(error, commands.MissingPermissions):
await ctx.send("You cant do that!")
