How do I submit a modal?

[RobbyV2]

The docs don't make much sense, in my case I have a button from a bot that opens up a modal, how should I submit that modal after entering some text? The following seems to maybe work, but I can't test it unless I input text onto a field of the modal.

def check(m):
    return m.title == "A wild"    

for comp in message.components:
  for child in comp.children:
      if child.label == "Catch me!":
          await child.click()
          modal = await self.wait_for("modal", check=check)
          await modal.submit()

The Modal class also has a components array of ActionRows. Each ActionRow will contain a single TextInput class, on which you can call .answer(). After that, you can call modal.submit() as you already are. Please reference the documentation.

I get a NotImplementedError when calling await modal.submit(). What am I doing wrong?

[EvanDev1]

modal = await self.bot.wait_for_event('modal')
input = modal.components[0].children[0]
await input.answer('2')
await modal.submit()

with this code, it will submit the modal if I remove the .answer() line. For some reason I get this error when trying to answering the input: TypeError: object NoneType can't be used in 'await' expression

How are you supposed to answer the inputs then?

.answer populates TextInput.value locally. So it does not need await. Upon submitting, the target app will receive passed values.

Ah you're right that worked
