    Parameters
    ----------

    mass_mentions: bool
        Set to `True` to escape mass mentions in the text.
    formatting: bool

pagify 

pagify(text: str, delims: Sequence[str] = ['\n'], *, priority: bool = False, escape_mass_mentions: bool = True, shorten_by: int = 8, page_length: int = 2000) -> Iterator[str]

Generate multiple pages from the given text.

Parameters:

  • text (str) –

    The content to pagify and send.

  • delims (Sequence[str], default: ['\n'] ) –

    Characters where page breaks will occur. If no delimiters are found in a page, the page will break after page_length characters. By default this only contains the newline.

Other Parameters:

  • priority (bool) –

    Set to True to choose the page break delimiter based on the order of delims. Otherwise, the page will always break at the last possible delimiter.

  • escape_mass_mentions (bool) –

    If True, any mass mentions (here or everyone) will be silenced.

  • shorten_by (int) –

    How much to shorten each page by. Defaults to 8.

  • page_length (int) –

    The maximum length of each page. Defaults to 2000.

Yields:

  • str –

    Pages of the given text.
