In this repository we gonna see how to setup a webhook to the telegram bot you've created with telepot. This is one of easiest way to set the webhook. Copy this code without changing anything but your telegram bot token, A random Number and your pythonanywhere Server URL.
from flask import Flask, request import telepot import urllib3
proxy_url = "http://proxy.server:3128" telepot.api._pools = { 'default': urllib3.ProxyManager(proxy_url=proxy_url, num_pools=3, maxsize=10, retries=False, timeout=30), } telepot.api._onetime_pool_spec = (urllib3.ProxyManager, dict(proxy_url=proxy_url, num_pools=1, maxsize=1, retries=False, timeout=30))
secret = "A_SECRET_NUMBER" bot = telepot.Bot('YOUR_AUTHORIZATION_TOKEN') bot.setWebhook("https://YOUR_PYTHONANYWHERE_USERNAME.pythonanywhere.com/{}".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: chat_id = update["message"]["chat"]["id"] if "text" in update["message"]: text = update["message"]["text"] bot.sendMessage(chat_id, "From the web: you said '{}'".format(text)) else: bot.sendMessage(chat_id, "From the web: sorry, I didn't understand that kind of message") return "OK"
