Thank you bro \m/

Installation
============

Via pip:

.. code-block:: shell

pip install python-telegram-handler-proxy

Usage
=====

Register a new telegram bot and obtain a ``authentication token``. (Instructions here https://core.telegram.org/bots#3-how-do-i-create-a-bot)

After that, you must obtain a ``chat_id``. You can do that using included simple script. Start a new conversation with newly created bot, write something to it (it is important to initiate conversation first).

Also, there is an ability for handler to automatically retrieve ``chat_id``. This will be done on handler initialization. But you still have to start a conversation with bot. Be aware: if program stops, server restarts, or something else will happen - handler will try to retrieve chat id from telegram, and may fail, if it will not find a NEW message from you. So i recommend you to use a script below for obtaining chat id.

Then run a command:

.. code-block:: shell

python -m telegram_handler_proxy <your token here>

If all went ok, a ``chat_id`` will be printed to stdout.

Using ``token`` and ``chat_id``, configure log handler in your desired way.
For example, using dictConfig:

.. code-block:: python

{
'version': 1,
'handlers': {
'telegram': {
'class': 'telegram_handler_proxy.TelegramHandler',
'token': 'your token',
'chat_id': 'chat id',
'proxy_url': 'url',
'proxy_port': None
}
},
'loggers': {
'my_logger': {
'handlers': ['telegram'],
'level': 'DEBUG'
}
}
}

Formatting
==========

Currently the format of sent messages is very simple: ``<code>%(asctime)s</code> <b>%(levelname)s</b>\nFrom %(name)s:%(funcName)s\n%(message)s``
Exception traceback will be formatted as pre-formatted fixed-width code block. (https://core.telegram.org/bots/api#html-style)

If you want to tweak it, configure a ``telegram_handler_proxy.HtmlFormatter`` with your desired format string.
Using a dictConfig:

.. code-block:: python

...
{
'formatters': {
'telegram': {
'class': 'telegram_handler_proxy.HtmlFormatter',
'fmt': '%(levelname)s %(message)s'
}
}
'handlers': {
'telegram': {
'class': 'telegram_handler_proxy.TelegramHandler',
'formatter': 'telegram',
'token': 'your token',
'chat_id': 'chat id',
'proxy_url': 'url',
'proxy_port': None
}
}
}
...

If you wish, you can enable emoji symbols in HtmlFormatter. Just specify `use_emoji=True` in HtmlFormatter settings.
This will add to levelname a :white_circle: for DEBUG, :large_blue_circle: for INFO, and :red_circle: for WARNING and ERROR levels.
