Question

i am writing following command

async def admins_only_command(ctx, *, args):
    \'\'\'do stuff

how can i re

Answer 1

There are two ways: by a whitelist of roles using has_any_role

@bot.command(pass_context=True)
@commands.has_any_role("Big Cheese", "Medium Cheese")
async def admins_only_command(ctx, *, args):
    '''do stuff'''

or by permission using has_permissions

@bot.command(pass_context=True)
@commands.has_permissions(administrator=True)
async def admins_only_command(ctx, *, args):
    '''do stuff'''

Both of these decorators are Checks, and will raise some subclass of CommandError for you to optionally handle if they fail.
