Adding Descriptions on each of the choices or options

[Tobies-Cormac]

Is there any way to add descriptions to to choices?
Currently i'm testing out a slash command which i'm able to add the description for command and also description for the required variable input. However i can't find a way to add a description to each of the options. I searched through web multiple time and i just can't find the solution. may be i can't read the document correctly.
So please if u can help.

Here is the code that i'm dealing with :

@bot.slash_command(description="Hey")

async def blep(
    inter: discord.ApplicationCommandInteraction,
    animal: str = commands.Param(choices={"Dog": "dog", "Cat": "cat", "Penguin": "penguin"}, description="Hello")
):
    await inter.response.send_message(animal)

Which i'm getting now :

I would like to add description like this:

Hi, there are multiple ways to add a description to an option; as mentioned here in the docs you could use docstrings writed in a certain way.

e.g

@commands.slash_command()
async def test(self, inter, name):
	"""
	A test command
	
	Parameters
	------------------
	name: a name
	"""
	...

another way would be to use disnake.ext.commands.ParamInfo

e.g

@commands.slash_command()
async def test(self, inter, name: str = commands.ParamInfo(name="name", description="a user name")):
	...

edit: sorry if the indentation looks weird but I'm on mobile

I think they're specifically referring to descriptions for individual options choices; i.e. Dog/Cat/Penguin in their example.

However, I'm fairly certain that those don't support descriptions. Going by the dAPI docs' entry on option choices, they only support name, name localisations, and value.

ahhh, I misunderstood it 😔

So there is no way to add description for each choices at the moment?

Correct. The discord API does not support this.
