Python package for automatically fetching and pushing news by Telegram.
Simple Start
First of all, install telegram_news:
pip install telegram_news
In a Python file, write:
import os
from sqlalchemy import create_engine
from sqlalchemy.orm import Session
from telegram_news.template.common import InfoExtractor, NewsPostman
# Three required fields:
# Your bot token gotten from @BotFather
bot_token = os.getenv("TOKEN")
# Add your bots into a channel as administrators
channel = os.getenv("CHANNEL")
# Your database to store old messages.
DATABASE_URL = os.getenv("DATABASE_URL")
# Create a database session
engine = create_engine(DATABASE_URL)
db = Session(bind=engine.connect())
# The news source
url = "https://en.wikinews.org/wiki/Main_Page"
tag = "Wiki News"
table_name = "wikinews"
# Info extractor to process data format
ie = InfoExtractor()
ie.set_list_selector('#MainPage_latest_news_text > ul > li')
ie.set_title_selector('#firstHeading')
ie.set_paragraph_selector('#mw-content-text > div > p:not(p:nth-child(1))')
ie.set_time_selector('#mw-content-text > div > p:nth-child(1) > strong')
ie.set_source_selector('span.sourceTemplate')
ie.max_post_length = 2000
# News postman to manage sending affair
np = NewsPostman(listURLs=[url, ], sendList=[channel, ], db=db, tag=tag)
np.set_bot_token(bot_token)
np.set_extractor(ie)
np.set_table_name(table_name)
# Start to work!
np.poll()
Then, you will get messages like this in your channel or group:
Bangladesh reports five new deaths due to COVID-19, a daily highest

On Saturday, in an online video announcement, Bangladeshi Road Transport and Bridges Minister Obaidul Quader said public transport would be shut down for longer than initially planned, until this coming Saturday. This public transport shutdown had initially started on March 26 and was planned to end on Saturday, April 4. Transport of essential goods -- medical, fuel and food -- was still allowed.
