from mochi_analytics import MochiClient
from mochi_analytics_discordpy import attach_mochi
mochi = MochiClient(
url="https://mochi.example.com", # your Mochi instance
api_key=os.environ["MOCHI_API_KEY"], # from the bot's settings page
)
intents = discord.Intents.default()

attach_mochi(client, mochi)
@client.event
async def on_close():
await mochi.shutdown() # flush remaining events
client.run(os.environ["DISCORD_TOKEN"])That’s it. Mochi now records slash/context-menu command usage, guild joins and leaves, and an hourly server-count snapshot.
attach_mochi works with discord.Client, discord.AutoShardedClient, and
discord.ext.commands.Bot.
Options
attach_mochi(
client,
mochi,
include_guild_names=True, # put guild names in join/leave metadata
ignore_commands=["ping"], # skip noisy commands
snapshot_interval=30 * 60, # seconds; default 1 hour
auto_track_commands=False, # see "accurate timings" below
)Accurate duration & success
Auto-tracking records commands the moment the interaction arrives — it can’t see whether your handler succeeded or how long it took. For that, disable auto-tracking and wrap your handlers:
from discord import app_commands
from mochi_analytics_discordpy import wrap_command
attach_mochi(client, mochi, auto_track_commands=False)
tree = app_commands.CommandTree(client)
@tree.command()
@wrap_command(mochi)
async def play(interaction: discord.Interaction):
... # duration and raised exceptions are recordedCustom events
from mochi_analytics import MochiEvent
mochi.track(MochiEvent(
type="custom",
name="premium_purchased",
user_id=str(interaction.user.id),
guild_id=str(interaction.guild_id) if interaction.guild_id else None,
meta={"tier": "gold"},
))Design guarantees
- Events are batched (flushed every 5 s or 100 events) and sent in the
background —
track()never blocks or raises. - Transient failures retry with backoff; the queue is bounded (oldest dropped first), so a dead Mochi instance can never leak memory or crash the bot.
- Raw user ids are hashed server-side with a per-bot salt and never stored.
Everything above is a thin wrapper over two HTTP endpoints — see the Ingest API to integrate from any other framework.
