discord.pyでDiscordボットを作成しようとしたときにエラーが発生しました

Question

ボットに一連の定義済みメッセージから数秒ごとにメッセージを送信しようとしています。

import discord 
import asyncio 
import random 

client = discord.Client() 

async def background_loop(): 
    await client.wait_until_ready() 
    while not client.is_closed: 
     channel = client.get_channel("channel id here") 
     messages = ["Hello!", "How are you doing?", "Howdy!"] 
     await client.send_message(channel, random.choice(messages)) 
     await asyncio.sleep(120) 

client.loop.create_task(background_loop()) 
client.run("discord token here") 

私はあまりにもそれを実行しようとすると、私はコンソールでこのエラーを取得し、チャットにメッセージが送信されません。

/usr/bin/python3.5 /root/PycharmProjects/untitled/Loop.py 
Task exception was never retrieved 
future: <Task finished coro=<background_loop() done, defined at /root/PycharmProjects/untitled/Loop.py:8> exception=InvalidArgument('Destination must be Channel, PrivateChannel, User, or Object. Received NoneType',)>

    await client.send_message(channel, random.choice(messages))

私はクライアントから

def get_channel(channels, channel_name): 
    for channel in client.get_all_channels(): 
     print(channel) 
     if channel.name == channel_name: 
      return channel 
    return None 

client = discord.Client() 
general_channel = get_channel(client.get_all_channels(), 'general') 
await client.send_message(general_channel, 'test msg')
