How Can I Get Live Location In Telegram Bot Via Python?

I'm using the python-telegram-bot library. I want to track a user's Live Location, but I don't know how to do it. I try to use Job Queue: def notification(bot, job): updates = bo

Solution 1:

Just to ellaborate on Seans answer: It can be done quite easily using the python-telegram-bot library. Whenever the location did update it can be found in update.edited_message. This only works if the user is manually sharing live location with the bot of course.

deflocation(bot, update):
    message = Noneif update.edited_message:
        message = update.edited_message
    else:
        message = update.message
    current_pos = (message.location.latitude, message.location.longitude)

location_handler = MessageHandler(Filters.location, location)
dispatcher.add_handler(location_handler)

Solution 2:

Your updates should look like this.

It will only contain first location in .message.location, the latest location is .edit_message.location, and others will be gone, so you need to record yourself.
