Error code with discord .py

 @bot.command(pass_conetext = True)
async def info(ctx,  user: discord.Member):
    embed = discord.Embed(title = "Super Bot", description = "Thinking" , color = 0x00ff00)
    embed.add_field(name = "Name", value = user.name, inline = True)
    embed.add_field(name = "ID", value = user.id , inline = True)
    embed.add_field(name = "Status", value = user.status , inline = True)
    embed.add_field(name = "Highest Role", value = user.top_role , inline = True)
    embed.add_field(name = "Joined", value = user.joined_at , inline = True)
    embed.set_thumbnail(url = user.avatar_url)

every time i run this code it comes back with this error and i have no idea why

You can change your code to this to deny the error:

@bot.command(pass_context= True)
async def info(ctx,  user: discord.Member=None):
    if user is None:
        user = ctx.message.author
    embed = discord.Embed(title = "Super Bot", description = "Thinking" , color = 0x00ff00)
    embed.add_field(name = "Name", value = user.name, inline = True)
    embed.add_field(name = "ID", value = user.id , inline = True)
    embed.add_field(name = "Status", value = user.status , inline = True)
    embed.add_field(name = "Highest Role", value = user.top_role , inline = True)
    embed.add_field(name = "Joined", value = user.joined_at , inline = True)
    embed.set_thumbnail(url = user.avatar_url)

Basically if the user is nothing it will give the message authors info..

Whoever ran the command didn't have the user argument.

!info @user instead of !info
