I am trying to make a discord bot. Using secret environment variables in repl.it, when I try to take the value of the variable, it says its of None type
import discord
import os
client = discord.Client()
@client.event
async def onReady():
print('Yeah Bwoi I am here : {0.user}'.format(client))
@client.event
async def onMessage(message):
if message.author == client.user:
return
if message.content.startswith('$hello'):
await message.channel.send('Yeee')
TK=os.environ.get('TOKEN')
print(TK)
client.run(TK)
Result:
None
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "main.py", line 20, in <module>
client.run(TK)
File "/opt/virtualenvs/python3/lib/python3.8/site-packages/discord/client.py", line 723, in run
return future.result()
File "/opt/virtualenvs/python3/lib/python3.8/site-packages/discord/client.py", line 702, in runner
await self.start(*args, **kwargs)
File "/opt/virtualenvs/python3/lib/python3.8/site-packages/discord/client.py", line 665, in start
await self.login(*args, bot=bot)
File "/opt/virtualenvs/python3/lib/python3.8/site-packages/discord/client.py", line 511, in login
await self.http.static_login(token.strip(), bot=bot)
AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'strip'

What I did is I recreated my repl and make sure you create a Python repl.

This Traceback shows that the "TK" variable is empty. This can happen if you haven't actually added a secret into the replit env secrets, if thats the case add one like this:
Having a .env file won't help your case as repl recently remove support for them.
