Requests in Parallel
********************
The library will automatically merge outgoing requests into a single
*container*. Telegram's API supports sending multiple requests in a
single container, which is faster because it has less overhead and
the server can run them without waiting for others. You can also
force using a container manually:
.. code-block:: python
async def main():
# Letting the library do it behind the scenes
await asyncio.wait([
client.send_message('me', 'Hello'),
client.send_message('me', ','),
client.send_message('me', 'World'),
client.send_message('me', '.')
])
# Manually invoking many requests at once
await client([
SendMessageRequest('me', 'Hello'),
SendMessageRequest('me', ', '),
SendMessageRequest('me', 'World'),
SendMessageRequest('me', '.')
])
Note that you cannot guarantee the order in which they are run.
Try running the above code more than one time. You will see the
order in which the messages arrive is different.
If you use the raw API (the first option), you can use ``ordered``
to tell the server that it should run the requests sequentially.
This will still be faster than going one by one, since the server
knows all requests directly:
.. code-block:: python
client([
SendMessageRequest('me', 'Hello'),
SendMessageRequest('me', ', '),
SendMessageRequest('me', 'World'),
SendMessageRequest('me', '.')
], ordered=True)
If any of the requests fails with a Telegram error (not connection
errors or any other unexpected events), the library will raise
`telethon.errors.common.MultiError`. You can ``except`` this
and still access the successful results:
.. code-block:: python
from telethon.errors import MultiError
try:
client([
SendMessageRequest('me', 'Hello'),
SendMessageRequest('me', ''),
SendMessageRequest('me', 'World')
], ordered=True)
except MultiError as e:
# The first and third requests worked.
first = e.results[0]
third = e.results[2]
# The second request failed.
second = e.exceptions[1]
