from .common import name_inner_event from .newmessage import NewMessage from .. import _tl @name_inner_event class MessageEdited(NewMessage): """ Occurs whenever a message is edited. Just like `NewMessage `, you should treat this event as a `Message `. .. warning:: On channels, `Message.out ` will be `True` if you sent the message originally, **not if you edited it**! This can be dangerous if you run outgoing commands on edits. Some examples follow: * You send a message "A", ``out is True``. * You edit "A" to "B", ``out is True``. * Someone else edits "B" to "C", ``out is True`` (**be careful!**). * Someone sends "X", ``out is False``. * Someone edits "X" to "Y", ``out is False``. * You edit "Y" to "Z", ``out is False``. Since there are useful cases where you need the right ``out`` value, the library cannot do anything automatically to help you. Instead, consider using ``from_users='me'`` (it won't work in broadcast channels at all since the sender is the channel and not you). Example .. code-block:: python from telethon import events @client.on(events.MessageEdited) async def handler(event): # Log the date of new edits print('Message', event.id, 'changed at', event.date) """ @classmethod def build(cls, update, others=None, self_id=None, *todo, **todo2): if isinstance(update, (_tl.UpdateEditMessage, _tl.UpdateEditChannelMessage)): return cls.Event(update.message) class Event(NewMessage.Event): pass # Required if we want a different name for it
