auth.importAuthorization method

[seguidor777]

Hi,

I would like to know if this method is available in this crate, I think is useful to make the session persistent between restarts by reusing the auth_key_id

I just realized that the session already persists and the auth_key_id is used for subsequent connections. I just don't know where is it stored locally and how the telegram client is able to read it and send it. The method that I'm requesting is really irrelevant in this case. I would appreciate if you can give me some info about how the client handles session persistence

Your references link is telegram bot api. not telegram client (tdjson) api. the tdjson documents is here https://core.telegram.org/tdlib/docs/classes.html About your question. in tdlib, I think the session data is store in sqlite db. the path is your set use set_tdlib_parameters https://github.com/fewensa/telegram-client/blob/684d84df82f64c8e5cbcd4df4f3053ababd4f0df/examples/client_event.rs#L75

https://github.com/fewensa/rtdlib/blob/a7cf894a0c3d7745398d78b71a48e647c03f39da/src/types/tdlib_parameters.rs#L20-L21

  /// The path to the directory for the persistent database; if empty, the current working directory will be used
  database_directory: String,

But I don't know how to read it. maybe tdjson has some api to read, and you can look for it from the api or go to td repository to raise an issue.

If there are any questions or progress, you can also tell me.

db.sqlite db.sqlite-shm db.sqlite-wal these files is stored by td, all login session will save to there

Ok, got it. I already saw that directory but didn't imagine that the session was stored there. Thanks for pointing me to the right direction. Cheers
