discord.py - I'm making an 8ball command, but python won't let me add a number to the command

Question

I'm making an 8ball command, but python won't let me add a number to the command. What I want to make:

@client.command()
async def 8ball(ctx, args):
    #code here

Error:

  File "main.py", line 631
    async def 8ball(ctx, args=None):
              ^
SyntaxError: invalid syntax

Can someone help me? Thanks in advance

Answer 1

You can use Aliases. Aliases can be thought of as other names the command can be called through.

@client.command(aliases=['8ball'])
async def _8ball(ctx, args):
    #code here
