Message

This object represents the Message Type in the Bot API.

Type

Each message has a type. For example, it can be a text message, a picture or successful payment. To see a full list of message types check the message_types module from django_tgbot.state_manager.message_types.

This class has a type method that will give you the type of this message. The returned value will be one of the available values in the message_types module. You can check the type by checking the string values but in order to avoid errors it is recommended to use the message_types module:

from django_tgbot.state_manager import message_types
from django_tgbot.types.message import Message

message: Message = ...

type = message.type()

if type == message_types.Game:
    print('Message is a Game!')
elif type == message_types.Location:
    print('Message is a location')
elif
    ...
