python-telegram-client
This is a fork of alexander-akhmetov/python-telegram. The root package is renamed from "telegram" to "teleclient" to avoid name conflict with python-telegram-bot.
Installation
This library requires Python 3.6+ and Linux or MacOS.
pip install python-telegram-clientSee documentation for more details.
How to use
Have a look at the tutorial :)
Basic example:
from teleclient.client import Telegram
from teleclient.text import Spoiler
tg = Telegram(
api_id='api_id',
api_hash='api_hash',
phone='+31611111111', # you can pass 'bot_token' instead
database_encryption_key='changekey123',
files_directory='/tmp/.tdlib_files/',
)
tg.login()
# if this is the first run, library needs to preload all chats
# otherwise the message will not be sent
result = tg.get_chats()
result.wait()
chat_id: int
result = tg.send_message(chat_id, Spoiler('Hello world!'))
# `tdlib` is asynchronous, so `python-telegram` always returns you an `AsyncResult` object.
# You can receive a result with the `wait` method of this object.
result.wait()
print(result.update)
tg.stop() # you must call `stop` at the end of the scriptMore examples you can find in the /examples/ directory.
