Basic Usage
|
|
===========
|
|
|
|
.. note::
|
|
|
|
All the snippets below assume you have successfully created and started a :obj:`pyrogram.Client` instance.
|
|
You also must be authorized, that is, a valid *.session file does exist in your working directory.
|
|
|
|
Simple API Access
|
|
-----------------
|
|
|
|
The easiest way to interact with the API is via the :obj:`pyrogram.Client` class which exposes bot-like_ methods.
|
|
The purpose of this Client class is to make it even simpler to work with Telegram's API by abstracting the
|
|
raw functions listed in the API scheme.
|
|
|
|
The result is a much cleaner interface that allows you to:
|
|
|
|
- Get information about the authorized user:
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: python
|
|
|
|
print(client.get_me())
|
|
|
|
- Send a message to yourself (Saved Messages):
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: python
|
|
|
|
client.send_message(
|
|
chat_id="me",
|
|
text="Hi there! I'm using Pyrogram"
|
|
)
|
|
|
|
.. seealso:: For a complete list of the available methods have a look at the :obj:`pyrogram.Client` class.

Using Raw Functions
|
|
-------------------
|
|
|
|
If you want **complete**, low-level access to the Telegram API you have to use the raw
|
|
:obj:`functions <pyrogram.api.functions>` and :obj:`types <pyrogram.api.types>` exposed by the ``pyrogram.api``
|
|
package and call any Telegram API method you wish using the :obj:`send <pyrogram.Client.send>` method provided by
|
|
the Client class.
|
|
|
|
Here some examples:
|
|
|
|
- Update first name, last name and bio:
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: python
|
|
|
|
from pyrogram.api import functions
|
|
|
|
client.send(
|
|
functions.account.UpdateProfile(
|
|
first_name="Dan", last_name="Tès",
|
|
about="Bio written from Pyrogram"
|
|
)
|
|
)
|
|
|
|
- Share your Last Seen time only with your contacts:
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: python
|
|
|
|
from pyrogram.api import functions, types
|
|
|
|
client.send(
|
|
functions.account.SetPrivacy(
|
|
key=types.InputPrivacyKeyStatusTimestamp(),
|
|
rules=[types.InputPrivacyValueAllowContacts()]
|
|
)
|
|
)
