DefaultHelpCommand does not use and ignores the mapping provided to send_bot_help.
Reproduction Steps
It's impossible to customize the DefaultHelpCommand implementation by altering it's get_bot_mapping implementation.
from discord.ext import commands
class CustomizedDefaultHelpCommand(commands.DefaultHelpCommand):
def __init__(self, *args, **kwargs):
super().__init__(*args, **kwargs)
def get_bot_mapping(self):
mapping = super().get_bot_mapping()
# make some arbitrary changes to mapping
return mapping
It seems DefaultHelpCommand just ignores the mapping argument passed to it and "scours" the bot manually itself. There doesn't seem to be a good reason for that, but maybe I am missing something?
Would it be possible to rewrite DefaultHelpCommand's send_bot_help implementation to use the provided mapping instead of gathering one itself? That way it would be easily possible to adjust which commands to display and how without having to reimplement send_bot_help itself.
Minimal Reproducible Code
Seeabove.
Expected Results
Overriding and changing get_bot_mapping should result in the actual output of send_bot_help to change.

I've been trying to change the structure of the !help output to better suit my cog layout/structure. Also see the following SO question for more background: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/75908271/how-to-make-a-cog-a-prefix-command-group
