Can I use this repo to export public channal chats?
Closed this issue · 1 comments
Hello:
I have joined about 30 public channels, I want to export 2 of them, the channel chats every day.
I am using Windows 10, and Telegram desktop version 4.0.1, I can export channel chats by hand from Telegram desktop by setting 6 different parameters.
However, this type of job is tedious, I want to know if I can use this repo to make channel chats exporting job as a Python script, so I can call the Python script later on, I don't have to do the job by hand every day.
Please advise: how to provide 6 parameters, so I can use the repo to export one public channel chats.
I think I need to export only 3 types of files: one is the result.json, a json format file indicating chat ID, file type, etc. Another file is: jpg for video thumbnail, and last file type is .MP4. I think if your repo can export GIF (I think it is made of multiple jpg/png files), then how about adding export .MP4 format file, then it is possible to export channal chats, right?
Thanks,
No, this program exports saved gifs (ones which are near stickers in UI). For exporting chats and channels use https://github.com/3bl3gamer/tg-history-dumper
