Error

[Allkorolev]

Greetings, I'm trying to run your component in my project, but an error occurs during compilation:

The code that I use even in minimal execution is as follows: ` external_components:

• source: github://Dilbert66/esphome-components@dev #uncomment to use github repository version

  - source: my_components #uncomment to use alocal directory called "my_components"

  components: [telegram_bot,mg_lib] #components to load refresh: 10min #frequency to check for new versions

telegram_bot: id: webnotify bot_id: "123467890:SAMPLETELEGRAMBOTKEYSAMPLETELEGRAM" chat_id: "4535645671" bot_enable: true allowed_chat_ids:

• "4535645671"

  on_message:

• text: "*" then:
  • telegram.publish: message: "Received: ${x.text}" to: "${x.chat_id}"`

Accordingly, I replaced all the bot and chat IDs

[Dilbert66]

Ok, this is fixed on dev now. Missing esphome.h include

[Allkorolev]

Thanks, good job. Tell me, is it possible to interact with a bot only through a group? Interaction by writing directly to him is not provided for?

[Dilbert66]

You can chat with the bot directly using a user id also. Set the chat_id accordingly.

[Allkorolev]

OK, and the last question is, is it possible to implement dynamic bot_id and chat_id so that you can change them in the web interface without updating the firmware?

[Dilbert66]

You can create your own api actions to set whatever values you want using lambda actions. These are the telegram calls you can make:

  webnotify->set_bot_id(std::string bot_id) ;
  webnotify->set_chat_id(std::string chat_id) ;
  webnotify->add_chatid(std::string chat_id) ;
  webnotify->set_bot_enable(bool enable);
  webnotify->set_send_enable(bool enable) ;

For example you can create a text template field which you can set via the web interface or HA which will then update the chat_id with the value:

text:
  platform: template
  name: "set_chat_id"
  mode: text
  optimistic: true
  on_value:
    then: 
     - lambda: 
        webnotify->set_chat_id(std::string(x)); // <- x holds the new value set for the field
