"""
Iterator over the messages for the given chat.
If either `search`, `filter` or `from_user` are provided,
:tl:`messages.Search` will be used instead of :tl:`messages.getHistory`.
.. note::
Telegram's flood wait limit for :tl:`GetHistoryRequest` seems to
be around 30 seconds per 10 requests, therefore a sleep of 1
second is the default for this limit (or above).
Arguments
entity (`entity`):
The entity from whom to retrieve the message history.
2018-07-30 00:16:01 +03:00
It may be ``None`` to perform a global search, or
to get messages by their ID from no particular chat.
Note that some of the offsets will not work if this
is the case.
Note that if you want to perform a global search,
you **must** set a non-empty `search` string.
limit (`int` | `None`, optional):
Number of messages to be retrieved. Due to limitations with
the API retrieving more than 3000 messages will take longer
than half a minute (or even more based on previous calls).
2018-10-06 21:20:11 +03:00
The limit may also be ``None``, which would eventually return
the whole history.
offset_date (`datetime`):
Offset date (messages *previous* to this date will be
retrieved). Exclusive.
offset_id (`int`):
Offset message ID (only messages *previous* to the given
ID will be retrieved). Exclusive.
max_id (`int`):
All the messages with a higher (newer) ID or equal to this will
be excluded.
min_id (`int`):
All the messages with a lower (older) ID or equal to this will
be excluded.
add_offset (`int`):
Additional message offset (all of the specified offsets +
this offset = older messages).
search (`str`):
The string to be used as a search query.
filter (:tl:`MessagesFilter` | `type`):
The filter to use when returning messages. For instance,
:tl:`InputMessagesFilterPhotos` would yield only messages
containing photos.
from_user (`entity`):
Only messages from this user will be returned.
This parameter will be ignored if it is not an user.
wait_time (`int`):
Wait time (in seconds) between different
:tl:`GetHistoryRequest`. Use this parameter to avoid hitting
the ``FloodWaitError`` as needed. If left to ``None``, it will
default to 1 second only if the limit is higher than 3000.
ids (`int`, `list`):
A single integer ID (or several IDs) for the message that
should be returned. This parameter takes precedence over
the rest (which will be ignored if this is set). This can
for instance be used to get the message with ID 123 from
a channel. Note that if the message doesn't exist, ``None``
will appear in its place, so that zipping the list of IDs
with the messages can match one-to-one.
.. note::
At the time of writing, Telegram will **not** return
:tl:`MessageEmpty` for :tl:`InputMessageReplyTo` IDs that
failed (i.e. the message is not replying to any, or is
replying to a deleted message). This means that it is
**not** possible to match messages one-by-one, so be
careful if you use non-integers in this parameter.
reverse (`bool`, optional):
If set to ``True``, the messages will be returned in reverse
order (from oldest to newest, instead of the default newest
to oldest). This also means that the meaning of `offset_id`
and `offset_date` parameters is reversed, although they will
still be exclusive. `min_id` becomes equivalent to `offset_id`
instead of being `max_id` as well since messages are returned
in ascending order.
2018-07-30 00:16:01 +03:00
You cannot use this if both `entity` and `ids` are ``None``.
Yields
Instances of `Message <telethon.tl.custom.message.Message>`.
Example
2019-05-09 13:24:37 +03:00
.. code-block:: python
# From most-recent to oldest
for message in client.iter_messages(chat):
print(message.id, message.text)

Same as `iter_messages()`, but returns a

If the `limit` is not set, it will be 1 by default unless both
`min_id` **and** `max_id` are set (as *named* arguments), in
which case the entire range will be returned.
This is so because any integer limit would be rather arbitrary and
it's common to only want to fetch one message, but if a range is
specified it makes sense that it should return the entirety of it.
If `ids` is present in the *named* arguments and is not a list,

Sends a message to the specified user, chat or channel.
The default parse mode is the same as the official applications
(a custom flavour of markdown). ``**bold**, `code` or __italic__``
are available. In addition you can send ``[links](https://example.com)``
and ``[mentions](@username)`` (or using IDs like in the Bot API:
``[mention](tg://user?id=123456789)``) and ``pre`` blocks with three
backticks.
Sending a ``/start`` command with a parameter (like ``?start=data``)
is also done through this method. Simply send ``'/start data'`` to
the bot.
See also `Message.respond() <telethon.tl.custom.message.Message.respond>`
and `Message.reply() <telethon.tl.custom.message.Message.reply>`.
2019-05-09 13:24:37 +03:00
Arguments
entity (`entity`):
To who will it be sent.
message (`str` | `Message <telethon.tl.custom.message.Message>`):
The message to be sent, or another message object to resend.
The maximum length for a message is 35,000 bytes or 4,096
characters. Longer messages will not be sliced automatically,
and you should slice them manually if the text to send is
longer than said length.
reply_to (`int` | `Message <telethon.tl.custom.message.Message>`, optional):
Whether to reply to a message or not. If an integer is provided,
it should be the ID of the message that it should reply to.
parse_mode (`object`, optional):
See the `TelegramClient.parse_mode
<telethon.client.messageparse.MessageParseMethods.parse_mode>`
property for allowed values. Markdown parsing will be used by
default.
link_preview (`bool`, optional):
Should the link preview be shown?
file (`file`, optional):
Sends a message with a file attached (e.g. a photo,
video, audio or document). The ``message`` may be empty.
force_document (`bool`, optional):
Whether to send the given file as a document or not.
clear_draft (`bool`, optional):
Whether the existing draft should be cleared or not.
Has no effect when sending a file.
2018-10-06 21:20:11 +03:00
buttons (`list`, `custom.Button <telethon.tl.custom.button.Button>`, :tl:`KeyboardButton`):
The matrix (list of lists), row list or button to be shown
after sending the message. This parameter will only work if
you have signed in as a bot. You can also pass your own
:tl:`ReplyMarkup` here.
2018-08-07 13:46:05 +03:00
All the following limits apply together:
* There can be 100 buttons at most (any more are ignored).
* There can be 8 buttons per row at most (more are ignored).
* The maximum callback data per button is 64 bytes.
* The maximum data that can be embedded in total is just
over 4KB, shared between inline callback data and text.
silent (`bool`, optional):
Whether the message should notify people in a broadcast
channel or not. Defaults to ``False``, which means it will
notify them. Set it to ``True`` to alter this behaviour.
Returns
The sent `custom.Message <telethon.tl.custom.message.Message>`.

"""
Forwards the given messages to the specified entity.
If you want to "forward" a message without the forward header
(the "forwarded from" text), you should use `send_message` with
the original message instead. This will send a copy of it.
See also `Message.forward_to() <telethon.tl.custom.message.Message.forward_to>`.
Arguments
entity (`entity`):
To which entity the message(s) will be forwarded.
messages (`list` | `int` | `Message <telethon.tl.custom.message.Message>`):
The message(s) to forward, or their integer IDs.
from_peer (`entity`):
If the given messages are integer IDs and not instances
of the ``Message`` class, this *must* be specified in
2019-03-10 15:29:34 +03:00
order for the forward to work. This parameter indicates
the entity from which the messages should be forwarded.
silent (`bool`, optional):
Whether the message should notify people in a broadcast
channel or not. Defaults to ``False``, which means it will
notify them. Set it to ``True`` to alter this behaviour.
as_album (`bool`, optional):
Whether several image messages should be forwarded as an
album (grouped) or not. The default behaviour is to treat
albums specially and send outgoing requests with
``as_album=True`` only for the albums if message objects
are used. If IDs are used it will group by default.
In short, the default should do what you expect,
``True`` will group always (even converting separate
images into albums), and ``False`` will never group.
Returns
The list of forwarded `Message <telethon.tl.custom.message.Message>`,
or a single one if a list wasn't provided as input.
2018-12-20 22:33:25 +03:00
Note that if all messages are invalid (i.e. deleted) the call
will fail with ``MessageIdInvalidError``. If only some are
invalid, the list will have ``None`` instead of those messages.

Edits the given message to change its text or media.
See also `Message.edit() <telethon.tl.custom.message.Message.edit>`.
Arguments
entity (`entity` | `Message <telethon.tl.custom.message.Message>`):
From which chat to edit the message. This can also be
the message to be edited, and the entity will be inferred
from it, so the next parameter will be assumed to be the
message text.
You may also pass a :tl:`InputBotInlineMessageID`,
which is the only way to edit messages that were sent
after the user selects an inline query result.
message (`int` | `Message <telethon.tl.custom.message.Message>` | `str`):
The ID of the message (or `Message
<telethon.tl.custom.message.Message>` itself) to be edited.
If the `entity` was a `Message
<telethon.tl.custom.message.Message>`, then this message
will be treated as the new text.
text (`str`, optional):
The new text of the message. Does nothing if the `entity`
was a `Message <telethon.tl.custom.message.Message>`.
parse_mode (`object`, optional):
See the `TelegramClient.parse_mode
<telethon.client.messageparse.MessageParseMethods.parse_mode>`
property for allowed values. Markdown parsing will be used by
default.
link_preview (`bool`, optional):
Should the link preview be shown?
file (`str` | `bytes` | `file` | `media`, optional):
The file object that should replace the existing media
in the message.
2018-10-06 21:20:11 +03:00
buttons (`list`, `custom.Button <telethon.tl.custom.button.Button>`, :tl:`KeyboardButton`):
The matrix (list of lists), row list or button to be shown
after sending the message. This parameter will only work if
you have signed in as a bot. You can also pass your own
:tl:`ReplyMarkup` here.
Returns
The edited `Message <telethon.tl.custom.message.Message>`,
unless `entity` was a :tl:`InputBotInlineMessageID` in which
case this method returns a boolean.
Raises
``MessageAuthorRequiredError`` if you're not the author of the
message but tried editing it anyway.
``MessageNotModifiedError`` if the contents of the message were
not modified at all.

.. warning::
This method does **not** validate that the message IDs belong
to the chat that you passed! It's possible for the method to
delete messages from different private chats and small group
chats at once, so make sure to pass the right IDs.
Arguments
entity (`entity`):
From who the message will be deleted. This can actually
be ``None`` for normal chats, but **must** be present
for channels and megagroups.
message_ids (`list` | `int` | `Message <telethon.tl.custom.message.Message>`):
The IDs (or ID) or messages to be deleted.
revoke (`bool`, optional):
Whether the message should be deleted for everyone or not.
By default it has the opposite behaviour of official clients,
and it will delete the message for everyone.
`Since 24 March 2019
<https://telegram.org/blog/unsend-privacy-emoji>`_, you can
also revoke messages of any age (i.e. messages sent long in
the past) the *other* person sent in private conversations
(and of course your messages too).
Disabling this has no effect on channels or megagroups,
since it will unconditionally delete the message for everyone.
Returns
A list of :tl:`AffectedMessages`, each item being the result
