This might be the cause for "number of retries reached 0" so more specific logging calls might be useful. If while reading a response it times out but some data had already been read, said data will be lost. The sequence of events that triggered reaching 0 retries was: - Sending requests with IDs XYZ - socket.timeout while reading - Items timed out. Retrying - Processing RPC result - Received response for XYZ - Lost request with ID XYZ
Telethon
========
.. epigraph::
⭐️ Thanks **everyone** who has starred the project, it means a lot!
**Telethon** is Telegram client implementation in **Python 3** which uses
the latest available API of Telegram.
What is this?
-------------
Telegram is a popular messaging application. This library is meant
to make it easy for you to write Python programs that can interact
with Telegram. Think of it as a wrapper that has already done the
heavy job for you, so you can focus on developing an application.
Installing
----------
.. code:: sh
pip3 install telethon
Creating a client
-----------------
.. code:: python
from telethon import TelegramClient
# These example values won't work. You must get your own api_id and
# api_hash from https://my.telegram.org, under API Development.
api_id = 12345
api_hash = '0123456789abcdef0123456789abcdef'
client = TelegramClient('session_name', api_id, api_hash)
client.start()
Doing stuff
-----------
.. code:: python
print(client.get_me().stringify())
client.send_message('username', 'Hello! Talking to you from Telethon')
client.send_file('username', '/home/myself/Pictures/holidays.jpg')
client.download_profile_photo('me')
messages = client.get_message_history('username')
client.download_media(messages[0])
