My bot doesn't receive messages from groups. Why?

>>> telegram.Bot()

10 March 2024 22:05

Hi, I’m trying to get the tutorial in https://docs.python-telegram-bot.org/en/v21.0.1/examples.echobot.html to work and I copy-pasted the code. The /start and /help commands both work, but if I send a non-command text the echo function doesn’t trigger. Adding a logging statement where the update_queue is consumed at https://github.com/python-telegram-bot/python-telegram-bot/blob/master/telegram/ext/_application.py#L1179, I can see that any arbitrary command I send is picked up (not just /start and /help) but non-commands don’t show up at all. Any idea what might be the issue?

but my question is solved now anyway

hey, does arbitrary_callback_data has a limit on the number of items it caches?

Hmmm, feels like a bug in the library to me, this should be handled properly. Mind creating a mwe and I can debug further later

Hi, I want to trigger a command every day at a specific time
but I don't understand how
I read the https://docs.python-telegram-bot.org/en/stable/examples.timerbot.html timerbot example
but I don't understand how to check if time has passed

My Guess is that you have app.run_polling() they is bpocking on main and After that you have and updater.run_polling() forgotten somewhere

>>> telegram.Bot()

10 March 2024 15:57

Nothing changed means you got the same error?

app.run_polling is not an async function.

>>> telegram.Bot()

10 March 2024 15:41

u should await Updater.start_polling

>>> telegram.Bot()

10 March 2024 22:05

commands both work, but if I send a non-command text the echo function doesn’t trigger You can find an explanation of @roolsbot's functionality on 'GitHub.

this question does not have a general answer. much relies on how you use the concurrency features of PTB. but glad to hear that you solved your problem :)

>>> telegram.Bot()

10 March 2024 21:45

Yes. See the docs of +AppBuilder.arbitray_callback_data+, +ExtBot.param.arbitrary_callback_data+, +CDC.param.maxsize+ and also the wiki page on +arbitray callback_data+. !search

in most of places in ptb docs, they specify like
if block = False then you can't rely on building custom context.
with that
there are
arbitary calbacks
concurrent updates
non blocking handlers
custom context
groups of handler

so , not all features can be used together, it's hard to find which combos break, that's why I asked like that.

Hey. In order for someone to be able to help you, you must ask a good technical question. Please read this short article and try again ;)

>>> telegram.Bot()

10 March 2024 19:49

you're in this gorup long enough to know this: Please post code or tracebacks using a pastebin rather than via plain text or a picture. https://pastebin.com/ is quite popular, but there are many alternatives out there. Of course, for very short snippets, text is fine. Please at least format it as monospace in that case.

>>> telegram.Bot()

10 March 2024 16:47

does this combo work?
block=True,concurrent updates & groups?

Hey. Please provide a minimal working example (MWE). Have a look at Minimal Working Example (MWE) if you need help.

I checked. Only app.run_polling is called.

>>> telegram.Bot()

10 March 2024 15:59

There is no such thing in v20

>>> telegram.Bot()

10 March 2024 15:47

v20 release notes and probably some discussion about it on the repo

10 March 2024 15:45

Where I can read why PTB goes to async? What's the point?

>>> telegram.Bot()

10 March 2024 15:42

I'm not using Updater.start_polling. I'm using app.run_polling.

Hi.
I want to check the connection to my database in a post_init function, and do other actions such as creating indexes on the db as well. And if the database is not connected, I want to shutdown the program.

My current code is this:

async def post_init(app: Application) -> None:
        try:
            await MongoDB().create_indexes()
        except Exception as e:
            logger.error(msg=f"Error Creating Indexes: {e}")

            logger.critical(msg="Shutting down the bot due to error in post_init.")

            sys.exit(1)

        await app.bot.send_message(
            chat_id=DEVELOPER_CHAT_ID,
            text="Bot Started Successfully.",
        )

sys:1: RuntimeWarning: coroutine 'Updater.start_polling' was never awaited
RuntimeWarning: Enable tracemalloc to get the object allocation traceback
