Method "send_message" just save message in local db

[lBrane]

Script example:

from telegram.client import Telegram tg = Telegram( api_id=ID, api_hash='HASH', phone='PHONE', database_encryption_key='KEY', )

tg.login() result = tg.get_chats() result.wait()

CHAT_ID =

result = tg.send_message( chat_id=CHAT_ID, text='Test Message' )

result.wait()

print(result.update)

---

Actual result: In the update, I received the message data, but the status of the message is "messageSendingStatePending" Expected result: Message should be sent to chat

Additional info: If after wait(), add a little sleep (2-3 seconds), then the message is sent to the chat, otherwise it is just stored in the local database.

Hi,

You have to subscribe to updateMessageSendSucceeded notifications, tdlib sends an acknowledgement for sendMessage once (with messageSendingStatePending type) and after that python-telegram does not know anything about the status.

This example should work, but you have to track message ids to determine which messages were successfully sent.

def message_send_succeeded(update):
    """Hanler for all updates from tdlib with status `updateMessageSendSucceeded`"""
    print(update)

tg.add_update_handler('updateMessageSendSucceeded', message_send_succeeded)

result = tg.send_message(chat_id=args.chat_id, text=args.text,)
