                        display_text='postback text2',
                        data='action=buy&itemid=2'
                    ),
                    MessageAction(
                        label='message2',
                        text='message text2'
                    ),
                    URIAction(
                        label='uri2',
                        uri='http://example.com/2'
                    )
                ]
            )
        ]
    )
)

TemplateSendMessage - ImageCarouselTemplate

image_carousel_template_message = TemplateSendMessage(
    alt_text='ImageCarousel template',
    template=ImageCarouselTemplate(
        columns=[
            ImageCarouselColumn(
                image_url='https://example.com/item1.jpg',
                action=PostbackAction(
                    label='postback1',
                    display_text='postback text1',
                    data='action=buy&itemid=1'
                )
            ),
            ImageCarouselColumn(
                image_url='https://example.com/item2.jpg',
                action=PostbackAction(
                    label='postback2',
                    display_text='postback text2',
                    data='action=buy&itemid=2'
                )
            )
        ]
    )
)

FlexSendMessage

flex_message = FlexSendMessage(
    alt_text='hello',
    contents=BubbleContainer(
        direction='ltr',
        hero=ImageComponent(
            url='https://example.com/cafe.jpg',
            size='full',
            aspect_ratio='20:13',
            aspect_mode='cover',
            action=URIAction(uri='http://example.com', label='label')
        )
    )
)

※ You can pass a dict to FlexSendMessage#contents as follows:

flex_message = FlexSendMessage(
    alt_text='hello',
    contents={
        'type': 'bubble',
        'direction': 'ltr',
        'hero': {
            'type': 'image',
            'url': 'https://example.com/cafe.jpg',
            'size': 'full',
            'aspectRatio': '20:13',
            'aspectMode': 'cover',
            'action': { 'type': 'uri', 'uri': 'http://example.com', 'label': 'label' }
        }
    }
)

Thus, You can send a JSON designed with Flex Message Simulator.

With QuickReply

text_message = TextSendMessage(text='Hello, world',
                               quick_reply=QuickReply(items=[
                                   QuickReplyButton(action=MessageAction(label="label", text="text"))
                               ]))

With Sender

text_message = TextSendMessage(text='Hello, world',
                               sender=Sender(name='name', icon_url='https://example.com/icon.jpg'))

Webhook

WebhookParser

※ You can use WebhookParser

__init__(self, channel_secret)

parser = linebot.WebhookParser('YOUR_CHANNEL_SECRET')

parse(self, body, signature, as_payload=False)

Parses the webhook body, and returns a list of Event objects or a WebhookPayload object (depending on as_payload). If the signature does NOT match, InvalidSignatureError is raised.

events = parser.parse(body, signature)

for event in events:
    do_something(event)

payload = parser.parse(body, signature, as_payload=True)

for event in payload.events:
    do_something(payload.event, payload.destination)

WebhookHandler

※ You can use WebhookHandler

__init__(self, channel_secret)

handler = linebot.WebhookHandler('YOUR_CHANNEL_SECRET')

handle(self, body, signature)

Handles webhooks with handlers added by the decorators add and default. If the signature does NOT match, InvalidSignatureError is raised.

handler.handle(body, signature)

add(self, event, message=None)

Add a handler method by using this decorator.

@handler.add(MessageEvent, message=TextMessage)
def handle_message(event):
    line_bot_api.reply_message(
        event.reply_token,
        TextSendMessage(text=event.message.text))

When the event is an instance of MessageEvent and event.message is an instance of TextMessage, this handler method is called.

@handler.add(MessageEvent)
def handle_message(event, destination):
    # do something

If the arity of the handler method is more than one, a destination property in a webhook request is passed to it as the second argument.

@handler.add(FollowEvent)
def handle_follow():
    # do something

If the arity of the handler method is zero, the handler method is called with no arguments.

default(self)

Set the default handler method by using this decorator.

@handler.default()
def default(event):
    print(event)

If there is no handler for an event, this default handler method is called.
