The question is about using webhooks in a Telegram bot using the pyTelegramBotAPI module.
I am using pythonanywhere.com to host the bot.
The following code works fine:
from flask import Flask, request
import telebot
secret = "A_SECRET_NUMBER"
bot = telebot.TeleBot ('YOUR_AUTHORIZATION_TOKEN')
bot.set_webhook("https://YOUR_PYTHONANYWHERE_USERNAME.pythonanywhere.c..
}".format(secret), max_connections=1)
app = Flask(__name__)
#app.route('/{}'.format(secret), methods=["POST"])
def telegram_webhook():
update = request.get_json()
if "message" in update:
text = update["message"]["text"]
chat_id = update["message"]["chat"]["id"]
bot.sendMessage(chat_id, "From the web: you said '{}'".format(text))
return "OK"
But when I use message handlers as shown in the example, I receive no answer from the bot:
# Process webhook calls
#app.route(WEBHOOK_URL_PATH, methods=['POST'])
def webhook():
if flask.request.headers.get('content-type') == 'application/json':
json_string = flask.request.get_data().decode('utf-8')
update = telebot.types.Update.de_json(json_string)
bot.process_new_updates([update])
return ''
else:
flask.abort(403)
# Handle '/start' and '/help'
#bot.message_handler(commands=['help', 'start'])
def send_welcome(message):
bot.reply_to(message,
("Hi there, I am EchoBot.\n"
"I am here to echo your kind words back to you."))
# Handle all other messages
#bot.message_handler(func=lambda message: True, content_types=['text'])
def echo_message(message):
bot.reply_to(message, message.text)
I have tried examples from different libraries, but still no answer.
Any ideas?
It would be great if you could share a working example of Telegram "echo-bot" on pythonanywhere.com.
Thanks.
You should disable threading in the TeleBot constructor like this:
bot = telebot.TeleBot('YOUR_AUTHORIZATION_TOKEN', threaded=False)
I had the same issue and found a solution here:
https://www.pythonanywhere.com/forums/topic/9562/#id_post_40177
Threading is unavailable for free PythonAnywhere accounts.
Error in 17th line. return "ok" not in telegram_webhook function.

I'm currently building an app which contains email sending to multiple users which i'm able to do but i want to add a functionality which schedule's an email, for instance I'm using sent_at method as you can see below:-
settings.py
EMAIL_FROM = 'EMAIL'
EMAIL_API_CLIENT ='XXXXXXXX'
views.py
import json
from sendgrid import SendGridAPIClient
from django.conf import settings
message = Mail(from_email=settings.EMAIL_FROM,
to_emails=selectedphone,
subject=subject,
html_content=editor)
message.extra_headers = {'X-SMTPAPI': json.dumps({'send_at':
FinalScheduleTime})}
sg = SendGridAPIClient(settings.EMAIL_API_CLIENT)
response = sg.send(message)
if response.status_code == 202:
emailstatus = "Accepted"
elif .....
else.....
I've also tried message.extra_headers = {'SendAt':FinalScheduleTime} but it's not working either.
Here the FinalScheduleTime is of the datetime object. The sendgrip api accepts the UNIX timestamp according to the documentation. You can check it here
Hence to convert your datetime object into unix time stamp, you can use the time module of python.
scheduleTime = int(time.mktime(FinalScheduleTime.timetuple()))
Also, replace the message.extra_headers with message.send_at.
Hence, your final code will look like:
import json
import time
from sendgrid import SendGridAPIClient
from django.conf import settings
message = Mail(from_email=settings.EMAIL_FROM,
to_emails=selectedphone,
subject=subject,
html_content=editor)
scheduleTime = int(time.mktime(FinalScheduleTime.timetuple()))
message.send_at = scheduleTime
sg = SendGridAPIClient(settings.EMAIL_API_CLIENT)
response = sg.send(message)
if response.status_code == 202:
emailstatus = "Accepted"
elif .....
else.....

I have a terminal that served in webbrowser with wetty. I want to authenticate the user from gitlab to let user with interaction with the terminal(It is inside docker container. When user authenticated i ll allow him to see the containers terminal).
I am trying to do OAuth 2.0 but couldn't manage to achieve.
That is what i tried.
I created an application on gitlab.
Get the code and secret and make a http call with python script.
Script directed me to login and authentication page.
I tried to get code but failed(Their is no mistake on code i think)
Now the problem starts in here. I need to get the auth code from redirected url to gain access token but couldn't figure out. I used flask library for get the code.
from flask import Flask, abort, request
from uuid import uuid4
import requests
import requests.auth
import urllib2
import urllib
CLIENT_ID = "clientid"
CLIENT_SECRET = "clientsecret"
REDIRECT_URI = "https://UnrelevantFromGitlabLink.com/console"
def user_agent():
raise NotImplementedError()
def base_headers():
return {"User-Agent": user_agent()}
app = Flask(__name__)
#app.route('/')
def homepage():
text = 'Authenticate with gitlab'
return text % make_authorization_url()
def make_authorization_url():
# Generate a random string for the state parameter
# Save it for use later to prevent xsrf attacks
state = str(uuid4())
save_created_state(state)
params = {"client_id": CLIENT_ID,
"response_type": "code",
"state": state,
"redirect_uri": REDIRECT_URI,
"scope": "api"}
url = "https://GitlapDomain/oauth/authorize?" + urllib.urlencode(params)
print get_redirected_url(url)
print(url)
return url
# Left as an exercise to the reader.
# You may want to store valid states in a database or memcache.
def save_created_state(state):
pass
def is_valid_state(state):
return True
#app.route('/console')
def reddit_callback():
print("-----------------")
error = request.args.get('error', '')
if error:
return "Error: " + error
state = request.args.get('state', '')
if not is_valid_state(state):
# Uh-oh, this request wasn't started by us!
abort(403)
code = request.args.get('code')
print(code.json())
access_token = get_token(code)
# Note: In most cases, you'll want to store the access token, in, say,
# a session for use in other parts of your web app.
return "Your gitlab username is: %s" % get_username(access_token)
def get_token(code):
client_auth = requests.auth.HTTPBasicAuth(CLIENT_ID, CLIENT_SECRET)
post_data = {"grant_type": "authorization_code",
"code": code,
"redirect_uri": REDIRECT_URI}
headers = base_headers()
response = requests.post("https://MyGitlabDomain/oauth/token",
auth=client_auth,
headers=headers,
data=post_data)
token_json = response.json()
return token_json["access_token"]
if __name__ == '__main__':
app.run(host="0.0.0.0",debug=True, port=65010)
I think my problem is on my redirect url. Because it is just an irrelevant link from GitLab and there is no API the I can make call.
If I can fire
#app.route('/console')
that line on Python my problem will probably will be solved.
I need to make correction on my Python script or different angle to solve my problem. Please help.
I was totally miss understand the concept of auth2. Main aim is to have access_token. When i corrected callback url as localhost it worked like charm.
Env: Python 3.6, and Django 2.1
I have created a Django website and a socket server, and files are organized like this:
web
...
user (a Django app)
__init__.py
views.py
...
server.py
Actually I want to build a umbrella rental system by using django, and server connects to umbrella shelf via multi-thread socket (sending some messages). Like I press the borrow button, and views.py can call the server test_function and send some messages to the connected umbrella shelf.
I can import server variables or functions in views.py, but I cannot get the right answer while server.py is running. So I want to ask you if you could give me some advice. Thanks a lot!
By the way, I tried to import the global variable clients directly in views.py, but still got [].
server.py defines a multi-thread server, which is basically as below:
clients = []
class StuckThread(threading.Thread):
def __init__(self, **kwargs):
self.name = kwargs.get('name', '')
def run(self):
while True:
# do something
def func1(self):
# do something
def test_function(thread_name):
# if the function is called by `views.py`, then `clients = []` and return 'nothing', but if I call this function in `server.py`, then I can get a wanted result, which is `got the thread`
for client in clients:
if client['thread'].name == thread_name:
return 'got the thread'
return 'nothing'
if __name__ == '__main__':
ip_port = ('0.0.0.0', 65432)
server = socket.socket(socket.AF_INET, socket.SOCK_STREAM)
server.bind(ip_port)
server.listen(max_listen_num)
while True:
client, address = socket.accept()
param = {'name': 'test name'}
stuck_thread = StuckThread(**param)
clients.append({"client": client, "address": address, "thread": stuck_thread})
stuck_thread.start()
and I have a Django views.py like this
def view_function(request):
from server import clients
print(clients) # got []
form server import test_function
print(test_function('test name')) # got 'nothing'
return render(request, 'something.html')
I have solve this problem by socket communication between django views.py and server.py. I open another port to receive messages from views.py. Once the borrow button is pressed, a socket client in views.py will build up and send arguments and other messages to the server.
I would like to make a bitcoin notification with Django. If managed to have a working Telegram bot that send the bitcoin stat when I ask him to do so. Now I would like him to send me a message if bitcoin reaches a specific value. There are some tutorials with running python script on server but not with Django. I read some answers and descriptions about django channels but couldn't adapt them to my project.
I would like to send, by telegram, a command about the amount and duration. Django would then start a process with these values and values of the channel I'm sending from in the background. If now, within the duration, the amount is reached, Django sends a message back to my channel. This should also be possible for more than one person.
Is these possible to do with Django out of the box, maybe with decorators, or do I need django-channels or something else?
Edit 2018-08-10:
Maybe my code explains a little bit better what I want to do.

Edit 2018-08-13:
I think the solution would be celery-beat and channels. Does anyone know a good tutorial?
One of my teammates uses django-celery-beat, that is available at https://github.com/celery/django-celery-beat to do this and he gave me some excellent feedback from it. You can schedule the celery tasks using the crontab syntax.
I had same issue, there are several typical approaches: Celery, Django-Channels, etc.
But you can avoid them all with simple approach: https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/2.1/howto/custom-management-commands/
I have used django commands in my project to run periodically tasks to rebuild users statistics:
Implement yourself application command, for example your application name is myapp and you have placed my_periodic_task.py in myapp/management/commands folder, so you can run your task once by typing python manage.py my_periodic_task
place beside manage.py file new file for example background.py with same code:
-
import os
from subprocess import call
BASE = os.path.dirname(__file__)
MANAGE_BASE = os.path.join(BASE, 'manage.py')
while True:
sleep(YOUR_TIMEOUT)
call(['python', MANAGE_BASE , 'my_periodic_task'])
Run your server for example: python background.py & python manage.py runserver 0.0.0.0:8000
Background
The purpose of this project is to create a SMS based kill switch for a program I have running locally. The plan is to create web socket connection between the local program and an app hosted on Heroku. Using Twilio, receiving and SMS will trigger a POST request to this app. If it comes from a number on my whitelist, the application should send a command to the local program to shut down.
Problem
What can I do to find a reference to the namespace so that I can broadcast a message to all connected clients from a POST request?
Right now I am simply creating a new web socket client, connecting it and sending the message, because I can't seem to figure out how to get access to the namespace object in a way that I can call an emit or broadcast.

I borrowed code heavily from this project chatzilla which is admittedly pretty different because I am not really working with a browser.
Perhaps Socketio was a bad choice for web sockets and I should have used Tornado, but this seemed like it would work well and this set up helped me easily separate the REST and web socket pieces
I just use Flask-SocketIO for that.
