It is a library that allows you to send logging logs to Telegram

Telegram Bot Logger

Telegram Bot Logger is a Python library that allows you to send logging logs to Telegram using the Bot API. It simplifies the process of integrating Telegram bot notifications into your Python applications, making it easy to monitor and manage your application's logs.

Installation

You can install telegram_bot_logger using pip:

pip install telegram-bot-logger

Usage

Replace YOUR_BOT_TOKEN and chat_ids with your actual bot token and chat IDs. You can obtain a bot token by creating a new bot on Telegram and obtaining it from the BotFather.

import telegram_bot_logger

import logging


logger = logging.getLogger("telegram_bot_logger_example")

handler = telegram_bot_logger.TelegramMessageHandler(
    bot_token = "YOUR_BOT_TOKEN",  # Required; bot's token from @BotFather
    chat_ids = [
        12345678,
        -1001234567890,  # For group chat id, make sure you pass the chat id as integer
        "@username"
    ],  # Required; you can pass id as integer or username as string
    api_server = telegram_bot_logger.api_server.TelegramAPIServer(
        base = "https://api.telegram.org/bot{bot_token}/{method}"
    ),  # Optional; set by default
    format_type = "text" or "TEXT" or telegram_bot_logger.formatters.FormatType.TEXT,  # Optional; also can be "DOCUMENT", by default it is "TEXT"
    document_name_strategy = "timestamp" or "TIMESTAMP" or telegram_bot_logger.formatters.DocumentNameStrategy.TIMESTAMP,  # Optional; used to define documents' names; also can be "ARGUMENT", by default it is "TIMESTAMP"
    proxies = {
        "http://": "http://localhost:8080"
    } or "http://localhost:8080",  # Optional; "dict[scheme, url]" or just "url", please see httpx's supported proxy types
    formatter = formatters.TelegramHTMLTextFormatter(),  # Optional; you can create your own class inherited from formatters.TelegramBaseFormatter and pass it
    additional_body = {
        "reply_to_message_id": 1
    }  # Optional; additional request body on sendMessage and sendDocument
)

logger.setLevel(logging.DEBUG)

logger.addHandler(handler)


logger.debug("debug-message")
# Or:
logger.debug("debug-message", extra={"document_name": 123})  # 123 is an argument; to use this feature you need to set `format_type = formatters.FormatType.DOCUMENT` and `document_name_strategy = formatters.DocumentNameStrategy.ARGUMENT` while initiating TelegramMessageHandler

It is highly recommend using string formatters in log messages, as these are not expanded if the logging level is not high enough, making difference in performance critical applications:

# Use string formatter to avoid formatting an excessive log message argument 
long_list = list(range(1000))
logger.info("My long list is: %s", long_list)

You can also show tracebacks:

try:
    raise RuntimeError("Ooops I did it again")
except Exception as e:
    logger.exception(e)

Closing the handler

This logging handler creates a daemon background thread, as it uses Python's internal QueueHandler. The thread is closed with Python's atexit handler. However for some applications, like pytest, to cleanly shut down, you may need to shutdown the handler manually.

# Release any background threads created by the Telegram logging handler
handler.close()

More examples

Here is an example how to customise Telegram output a bit:

import logging
import telegram_bot_logger
from telegram_bot_logger.formatters import TelegramHTMLTextFormatter

# Fine tune our Telegram chat output
formatter = TelegramHTMLTextFormatter()
formatter._EMOTICONS[logging.DEBUG] = "📜"  # Patch in the emoticon by logging level
formatter._TAG_FORMAT = ""  # Disable tags in the output
formatter._HEADER_FORMAT = "<pre>{emoticon} {message}{description}</pre>"  # Disable line number and module name in the output

telegram_handler = telegram_bot_logger.TelegramMessageHandler(
    bot_token = "YOUR_BOT_TOKEN",
    chat_ids = [
        -1001234567890,
    ],
    format_type = "text",
    formatter = formatter,
    level = logging.INFO
)

logging.getLogger().addHandler(telegram_handler)
