Let's send to Telegram!

There are 2 ways to send to the telegram:

1. Via the Telegram app
2. Via the telegram API

Quick FAQ

• "Why send by the Telegram API?"

• Because its is faster, does not generate conflict in virtual machines where you cannot use keyboard/mouse macros and does not freeze your ability to send files in the App Telegram while sending the files

• "When sending via the Telegram app is preferable?"

• When you are not an administrator of the target group/channel, having difficulty extracting the chat_id code, necessary when sending via API.

For sending via Telegram app:

• select the files folder window
• select the first file from the folder
• select the window of telegram desktop app
• select the open cmd window and press Enter

This steps are crucial because the script will constantly switch between windows by typing the hotkey alt + tab and the down-arrow key to select the file bellow in folder.

To send via the telegram API:

To connect to Telegram via API, it's necessary get an api_id and an api_hash. But do not worry, it is only necessary to follow these steps once in a lifetime.

• To get the credentials to Telegram API, the codes api_id and an api_hash:

  • Login to your Telegram core website
  • Go to the API development tools area
  • There is a form that you need to fill out, and after that, you can receive your api_id and api_hash
  • To know more, access the Telegram’s help documentation about how to get your API credentials

• Open the file credentials.py in any text editor, like notepad

• Fill in the api_id and api_hash flags according to those obtained with the instructions above, similar to the example below:

• api_id = 1111111 (just an example. replace by the obtained value)

• api_hash = "sKwrdX7tb2xFDkPU9h0AsKwrdX7tb2xF" (just an example. replace by the obtained value.)

• Save and close the file

• If you wish to create a new channel (faster option 😆):

  • Open the file config/config.py in any text editor
  • Change the flag create_new_channel to 1
  • Save and close the file
  • If you wish to automatically add adms to the new channel, add your @Nicks in file config/channel_adms.txt
  • If you wish to automatically customize description of the new channel:
    • Fill in the file header_project.txt so that the first line must be the name of the channel and the other lines must be the description. If you wish, use the flag {chat_invite_link} to automatically replaced with the invitation link for the new channel.

• If you wish to send to an existing group/channel (slower option 😐):

  • First, you need to get the group/channel chat_id. Follow the steps below:
    • Add the bot @MissRose_bot to the group/channel
    • Send the msg /id in group/channel
    • Bot Rose will respond with the chat_id. Must be a negative number with more then or equal to 9 characters.
    • Copy the chat_id (including the hyphen)
  • Open the file config/config.py in any text editor
  • Change the chat_id flag to the value of the copied chat_id, similar to example below
  • e.g.: chat_id = -111111111
  • Change the create_new_channel flag to 0, equal to example below
  • e.g.: create_new_channel = 0
  • Save and close the file

Another Quick FAQ:

• "What suffering! Do I need to repeat all these steps the next time I send files via Telegram API?"
• No! 😆 If you are uploading files to a new channel, just adjust the header_project.txt file. If the files are going to be send to the same group/channel as previously sent, there is no need to edit chat_id.

• FFmpeg installed and added in Windows Path.

  • unidecode
  • pyperclip
  • pandas 🐼
