pyrogram - Filter commands addressed to the bot

Question

If I filter a command using something like filters.command(["my_command"], in groups the bot gets notified when I execute the command /my_command, but if I address it to the bot (e.g. /my_command@MyBot) it won't get notified.

How can I modify the filter to get notified in both cases (independently on the bot name)?

Thanks

ok, but I prefer not to write the bot name in the code (I have lots of bots with the same code), is there a way to filter it without hard-coding the name? — yuko

You could write a loop that will duplicate each command with the name of the bot — 0stone0

use regex

with app:
    bot_username = app.get_me().username

@app.on_message( filters.regex(f'^/my_command($|@{bot_username}$)') )
def handler( client, message ):
    pass

You'll need to pass each option to filter.commands, including the variants with the bot name.

If you're looking for a more dynamic solution, you can use something like

commands = [ 'hello', 'world' ]
myBot = 'myBotName'

for i in range(len(commands)):
    commands.append(commands[i] + "@" + myBot)

print(commands)
// ['hello', 'world', 'hello@myBotName', 'world@myBotName']

That will loop over a list of commands, and the same command with the bot name attached.

For even more copy/paste logic, you can retrieve the bot name from pyrogram itself.

If we take a look at Pyrogram's User class; we'll see the following data:

username (str, optional) – User’s or bot’s username.

This seems like a perfect fit to automate the myBot variable in my example above.

Ok thanks, so the best solution would be to get the bot name from pyrogram and create the string dynamically

I'm not quite familiar with pyrogram, so I can't tell you how exactly. It is available though the telegram Api so there must be a option for it in pyrogram.

Please see my edit @yuko, I guess the user.username should be wat you're looking for.
