- Pyrogram core is now fully asynchronous - Ditched Python 3.5, welcome 3.6 as minimum version. - Moved all types to pyrogram.types - Turned the Filters class into a module (filters) - Moved all filters to pyrogram.filters - Moved all handlers to pyrogram.handlers - Moved all emoji to pyrogram.emoji - Renamed pyrogram.api to pyrogram.raw - Clock is now synced with server's time - Telegram schema updated to Layer 117 - Greatly improved the TL compiler (proper type-constructor hierarchy) - Added "do not edit" warning in generated files - Crypto parts are executed in a thread pool to avoid blocking the event loop - idle() is now a separate function (it doesn't deal with Client instances) - Async storage, async filters and async progress callback (optional, can be sync too) - Added getpass back, for hidden password inputs

==============
|
|
|
|
Pyrogram's API, which consists of well documented convenience :doc:`methods <../api/methods/index>` and facade
|
|
:doc:`types <../api/types/index>`, exists to provide a much easier interface to the undocumented and often confusing
|
|
Telegram API.
|
|
|
|
In this section, you'll be shown the alternative way of communicating with Telegram using Pyrogram: the main "raw"
|
|
Telegram API with its functions and types.

Telegram Raw API
|
|
----------------
|
|
|
|
If you can't find a high-level method for your needs or if you want complete, low-level access to the whole
|
|
Telegram API, you have to use the raw :mod:`~pyrogram.raw.functions` and :mod:`~pyrogram.raw.types`.
|
|
|
|
As already hinted, raw functions and types can be really confusing, mainly because people don't realize soon enough they
|
|
accept *only* the right types and that all required parameters must be filled in. This section will therefore explain
|
|
some pitfalls to take into consideration when working with the raw API.
|
|
|
|
.. hint::
|
|
|
|
Every available high-level methods in Pyrogram is built on top of these raw functions.
|
|
|
|
Nothing stops you from using the raw functions only, but they are rather complex and
|
|
:doc:`plenty of them <../api/methods/index>` are already re-implemented by providing a much simpler and cleaner
|
|
interface which is very similar to the Bot API (yet much more powerful).
|
|
|
|

Invoking Functions
|
|
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
|
|
|
|
Unlike the :doc:`methods <../api/methods/index>` found in Pyrogram's API, which can be called in the usual simple way,
|
|
functions to be invoked from the raw Telegram API have a different way of usage and are more complex.
|
|
|
|
First of all, both :doc:`raw functions <../telegram/functions/index>` and :doc:`raw types <../telegram/types/index>`
|
|
live in their respective packages (and sub-packages): ``pyrogram.raw.functions``, ``pyrogram.raw.types``. They all exist
|
|
as Python classes, meaning you need to create an instance of each every time you need them and fill them in with the
|
|
correct values using named arguments.
|
|
|
|
Next, to actually invoke the raw function you have to use the :meth:`~pyrogram.Client.send` method provided by the
|
|
Client class and pass the function object you created.
|
|
|
|
Here's some examples:
|
|
|
|
- Update first name, last name and bio:
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: python
|
|
|
|
from pyrogram import Client
|
|
from pyrogram.raw import functions
|
|
|
|
with Client("my_account") as app:
|
|
app.send(
|
|
functions.account.UpdateProfile(
|
|
first_name="Dan", last_name="Tès",
|
|
about="Bio written from Pyrogram"
|
|
)
|
|
)
|
|
|
|
- Disable links to your account when someone forwards your messages:
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: python
|
|
|
|
from pyrogram import Client
|
|
from pyrogram.raw import functions, types
|
|
|
|
with Client("my_account") as app:
|
|
app.send(
|
|
functions.account.SetPrivacy(
|
|
key=types.PrivacyKeyForwards(),
|
|
rules=[types.InputPrivacyValueDisallowAll()]
|
|
)
|
|
)
|
|
|
|
- Invite users to your channel/supergroup:
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: python
|
|
|
|
from pyrogram import Client
|
|
from pyrogram.raw import functions, types
|
|
|
|
with Client("my_account") as app:
|
|
app.send(
|
|
functions.channels.InviteToChannel(
|
|
channel=app.resolve_peer(123456789), # ID or Username
|
|
users=[ # The users you want to invite
|
|
app.resolve_peer(23456789), # By ID
|
|
app.resolve_peer("username"), # By username
|
|
app.resolve_peer("+393281234567"), # By phone number
|
|
]
|
|
)
|
|
)
|
|
|
|
Chat IDs
|
|
^^^^^^^^
|
|
|
|
The way Telegram works makes it impossible to directly send a message to a user or a chat by using their IDs only.
|
|
Instead, a pair of ``id`` and ``access_hash`` wrapped in a so called ``InputPeer`` is always needed. Pyrogram allows
|
|
sending messages with IDs only thanks to cached access hashes.
|
|
|
|
There are three different InputPeer types, one for each kind of Telegram entity.
|
|
Whenever an InputPeer is needed you must pass one of these:
|
|
|
|
- :class:`~pyrogram.raw.types.InputPeerUser` - Users
|
|
- :class:`~pyrogram.raw.types.InputPeerChat` - Basic Chats
|
|
- :class:`~pyrogram.raw.types.InputPeerChannel` - Either Channels or Supergroups
|
|
|
|
But you don't necessarily have to manually instantiate each object because, luckily for you, Pyrogram already provides
|
|
:meth:`~pyrogram.Client.resolve_peer` as a convenience utility method that returns the correct InputPeer
|
|
by accepting a peer ID only.
|
|
|
|
Another thing to take into consideration about chat IDs is the way they are represented: they are all integers and
|
|
all positive within their respective raw types.
|
|
|
|
Things are different when working with Pyrogram's API because having them in the same space can theoretically lead to
|
|
collisions, and that's why Pyrogram (as well as the official Bot API) uses a slightly different representation for each
|
|
kind of ID.
|
|
|
|
For example, given the ID *123456789*, here's how Pyrogram can tell entities apart:
|
|
|
|
- ``+ID`` User: *123456789*
|
|
- ``-ID`` Chat: *-123456789*
|
|
- ``-100ID`` Channel or Supergroup: *-100123456789*
|
|
|
|
So, every time you take a raw ID, make sure to translate it into the correct ID when you want to use it with an
|
|
high-level method.
