So I've made a discord bot with a lot of commands (I'll show one only here to make it clearer), but the code is now really messy. I've always wanted to move the commands into a seperate folder names cogs with files in it. But it doesn't seem to work:
main.py:
import discordfrom discord.ext import commandsintents = discord.Intents.default()intents.message_content = Truebot = commands.Bot(command_prefix = "m.", intents = intents)token = "1234567890"cogs = ["ping"]for cog in cogs: try: bot.load_extension(f'cogs.{cog.lower()}') print(f'{cog} cog loaded.') except Exception as e: print(f'Failed to load {cog} cog: {e}')@bot.eventasync def on_ready(): print('We have logged in as {0.user}'.format(bot))@bot.eventasync def on_message(message): if message.author == bot.user: return await bot.process_commands(message)try: bot.run(token)except discord.HTTPException as e: if e.status == 429: print("The Discord servers denied the connection for making too many requests") print("Get help from https://stackoverflow.com/questions/66724687/in-discord-py-how-to-solve-the-error-for-toomanyrequests") else: raise eping.py:
import discordfrom discord.ext import commandsclass Ping(commands.Cog): def __init__(self, bot): self.bot = bot @commands.command() async def ping(self, ctx): message = await ctx.send('Pong!') latency = self.bot.latency * 1000 # Convert to milliseconds await message.edit(content=f'Pong! **{latency:.2f} ms**')def setup(bot): bot.add_cog(Ping(bot))But this is what it shows:error messageI've tried making it await bot.load_extension(f'cogs.{cog.lower()}') But it just throws another error at me:error message 2I am wondering wether I should put the await bot.load_extension(f'cogs.{cog.lower()}') into a async def function. But I don't know how to do that, and when I should call the function.Also, this is what is shown in the console:
/home/runner/Python-Discord-Bot/main.py:14: RuntimeWarning: coroutine 'BotBase.load_extension' was never awaited bot.load_extension(f'cogs.{cog.lower()}')RuntimeWarning: Enable tracemalloc to get the object allocation tracebackping cog loaded.2024-03-26 10:47:57 INFO discord.client logging in using static token2024-03-26 10:47:58 INFO discord.gateway Shard ID None has connected to Gateway (Session ID: xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx).We have logged in as xxx#9743I've already looked at Cogs discord.py but the answers just either use bot.load_extension('maincog') or client.load_extension(f'cogs.{filename[:-3]}'), which doesn't help since it doesn't use await and isn't in a function.I've also looked at discord.py How i make cogs in discord.py? and tried out the solutions that Noob_Coder_GALAXY gave, but then, it throws me this error:

Thanks for any help
