TelegramSDK
There are already many telegram bot libraries for Python, but I wrote my own version according to my expectations
-
Compatible with any python version (2 & 3).
-
Allow multiprocessing.
-
Easy to use.
-
etc
Not all telegram bot api methods are implemented yet and you are welcome to contribute :)
Installation
Note: If you are running an older version of Python, you must first install a version of the requests library that is compatible with your current Python version.
with pip:
pip install TelSDK
with poetry:
poetry add TelSDK
from source:
python setup.py install
Example Usage
Example with poll method:
# -*-coding:utf8;-*-
from TelegramSDK import telegram as bot
# telegram token is automatic loaded from environment variable TELEGRAM_BOT_TOKEN but you can also set it manually
bot.set_token("your token")
# call this function if you run on old device
# bot.disable_ssl()
def handler(data):
bot.update(data)
download_photo = bot.download_file("/tmp", filter=(".jpeg", ".jpg", ".png"))
if len(download_photo):
bot.reply_message("Photo downloaded: {}".format(download_photo))
else:
try:
# user not send any file
bot.reply_message("OK: " + bot.data.message.text)
"""
or reply with file bot.reply_file("path/to/file/example.pdf", caption="example file!")
"""
except BaseException as e:
# handle user send file but not photo
bot.reply_message("file not supported!")
bot.poll(handler, worker=5, debug=True)Example with webhook (flask, bottle etc)
@post("/webhook")
def handler():
bot.update(request.json)
bot.reply_message("OK: " + bot.data.message.text)TelegramSDK has built-in session function based zcache, for example:
if bot.get_session():
count = bot.get_session() + 1
bot.set_session(count, ttl=3600)
bot.reply_message("count: %d" % count)
else:
bot.set_session(1, ttl=3600)
bot.reply_message("count: 1")for more doc please read the source code.
