A simple app to develop Telegram bots with Django

Documentation
-------------

The full documentation is at https://django-telegrambot.readthedocs.org.

Quickstart
----------

Install django-telegrambot::

pip install django-telegrambot

Configure your installation
---------------------------

Add ``django_telegrambot`` in ``INSTALLED_APPS`` ::

#settings.py
INSTALLED_APPS = (
...
'django_telegrambot',
...
)

And set your bots::

#settings.py
#Django Telegram Bot settings
TELEGRAM_BOT_TOKENS = ('BOT_1_token','BOT_2_token',)
TELEGRAM_WEBHOOK_SITE = 'https://mysite.it'
TELEGRAM_WEBHOOK_BASE = '/baseurl'
#TELEGRAM_WEBHOOK_CERTIFICATE = 'cert.pem' #If your site use self-signed certificate, must be set with location of your public key certificate. (More info at https://core.telegram.org/bots/self-signed )


Include in your urls.py the ``django_telegrambot.urls`` using the same value of ``TELEGRAM_WEBHOOK_BASE`` ::

#urls.py
urlpatterns = [
...
url(r'^baseurl/', include('django_telegrambot.urls')),
...
]

Then use it in a project creating a module ``telegrambot.py`` in your app ::

#myapp/telegrambot.py
# Example code for telegrambot.py module
from telegram.ext import CommandHandler, MessageHandler, Filters
from django_telegrambot.apps import DjangoTelegramBot

import logging
logger = logging.getLogger(__name__)


# Define a few command handlers. These usually take the two arguments bot and
# update. Error handlers also receive the raised TelegramError object in error.
def start(bot, update):
bot.sendMessage(update.message.chat_id, text='Hi!')


def help(bot, update):
bot.sendMessage(update.message.chat_id, text='Help!')


def echo(bot, update):
bot.sendMessage(update.message.chat_id, text=update.message.text)


def error(bot, update, error):
logger.warn('Update "%s" caused error "%s"' % (update, error))


def main():
logger.info("Loading handlers for telegram bot")

# Default dispatcher (this is related to the first bot in settings.TELEGRAM_BOT_TOKENS)
dp = DjangoTelegramBot.dispatcher
# To get Dispatcher related to a specific bot
# dp = DjangoTelegramBot.getDispatcher('BOT_n_token') #get by bot token
# dp = DjangoTelegramBot.getDispatcher('BOT_n_username') #get by bot username

# on different commands - answer in Telegram
dp.add_handler(CommandHandler("start", start))
dp.add_handler(CommandHandler("help", help))

# on noncommand i.e message - echo the message on Telegram
dp.add_handler(MessageHandler([Filters.text], echo))

# log all errors
dp.add_error_handler(error)

# log all errors
dp.addErrorHandler(error)
