正如@Łukasz Kwieciński 所说，您将收到'await' outside async function 错误。为了检查代码是否有效并设置 screen_name 和 description 属性，我创建了一个类，假设您的 whostartedfollowing 和 whoisbeingfollowed 属于类似于 user 的类：
class user:
def __init__(self):
self.screen_name = "screen name"
self.description = "description"
self.followers_count = 3
进入问题的实际部分：发送消息而无需awaiting 命令，您可以随时发送消息。例如，您可以在机器人开始使用其on_ready() 方法时发送消息，如下所示：
@client.event
async def on_ready(): #When the bot starts
print(f"The bot is online and is logged in as {client.user}")
#Do some scraping here and get the actual whostartedfollowing and whoisbeingfollowed (from Twitter).
whostartedfollowing:user = user()
whoisbeingfollowed:user = user()
await sendDiscordMessage(whoisbeingfollowed, whostartedfollowing)
print("sent the message")
其中sendDiscordMessage() 是您代码中的函数，但稍作修改以减少错误：
async def sendDiscordMessage(friendUser, eachUserToScrape):
friendUserScreenName = friendUser.screen_name
friendUserDescription = friendUser.description
friendUserFollowersCount = str(friendUser.followers_count)
discordMessage = "\n\n=======================================================\n\n" + "?** User @" + eachUserToScrape.screen_name + " started following : @" + friendUserScreenName + " ?**\n\nLink profile : https://twitter.com/" + friendUserScreenName + "\n\nSubscribers count : "+ friendUserFollowersCount + "\n\nDescription : " + friendUserDescription
#Since screen_name is a string, I just used it instead of the object, so it can be joined with the rest as a string.
channel = client.get_channel(...) #Get the channel with its ID (an `int`), for example a channel with
print(channel) #To check if the channel is None or not.
print(discordMessage) #and not "print(discordMessage + type(discordMessage))", or you can use "print(discordMessage + str(type(discordMessage)))"
await channel.send(discordMessage)
你可以在没有awaiting 的情况下做同样的事情，方法是不要让你的sendDiscordMessage(friendUser, eachUserToScrape) 函数async（让它成为sendDiscordMessage(friendUser, eachUserToScrape)，而不是添加async 使其成为async def sendDiscordMessage(friendUser, eachUserToScrape)），如果你不这样做不想依赖awaited 协程的结果。但是，你会得到一个RuntimeWarning: coroutine 'Messageable.send' was never awaited。
如果您必须等待等待的协程的结果，如果等待的协程崩溃，那么其余代码也将无法工作，或者执行顺序很重要，然后使用await 和将def sendDiscordMessage(friendUser, eachUserToScrape) 更改为：
async def sendDiscordMessage(friendUser, eachUserToScrape):
另外，你是using discord.Client and not discord.ext.commands.Bot。后者只是前者的延伸，具有更多的功能。你可能想切换到commands.Bot。
这是完整的代码：
from discord.ext import commands
client = commands.Bot(command_prefix="")
class user:
def __init__(self):
self.screen_name = "screen name"
self.description = "description"
self.followers_count = 3
@client.event
async def on_ready(): #When the bot starts
print(f"Bot online and logged in as {client.user}")
#Do some scraping here and get the actual whostartedfollowing and whoisbeingfollowed (from Twitter).
whostartedfollowing:user = user()
whoisbeingfollowed:user = user()
await sendDiscordMessage(whoisbeingfollowed, whostartedfollowing)
print("sent the message")
async def sendDiscordMessage(friendUser, eachUserToScrape):
friendUserScreenName = friendUser.screen_name
friendUserDescription = friendUser.description
friendUserFollowersCount = str(friendUser.followers_count)
discordMessage = "\n\n=======================================================\n\n" + "?** User @" + eachUserToScrape.screen_name + " started following : @" + friendUserScreenName + " ?**\n\nLink profile : https://twitter.com/" + friendUserScreenName + "\n\nSubscribers count : "+ friendUserFollowersCount + "\n\nDescription : " + friendUserDescription
#Since screen_name is a string, I just used it instead of the object, so it can be joined with the rest as a string.
channel = client.get_channel(...)
print(channel)
print(discordMessage) #and not "print(discordMessage + type(discordMessage))", or you can use "print(discordMessage + str(type(discordMessage)))"
await channel.send(discordMessage)
client.run("token")
Here 是async-await 的一些用法。
