Telegram Bot Integration for Notifications

How it works

create a bot with BotFather
get the bot token
find your chat_id

Example (HTTP API)

telegram_notify.py

import os
import requests
 
 
def telegram_send(text: str):
    token = os.environ["TELEGRAM_BOT_TOKEN"]
    chat_id = os.environ["TELEGRAM_CHAT_ID"]
 
    url = f"https://api.telegram.org/bot{token}/sendMessage"
    r = requests.post(url, data={"chat_id": chat_id, "text": text}, timeout=10)
    r.raise_for_status()
 
 
# telegram_send("Build finished")

telegram_notify.py

import os
import requests
 
 
def telegram_send(text: str):
    token = os.environ["TELEGRAM_BOT_TOKEN"]
    chat_id = os.environ["TELEGRAM_CHAT_ID"]
 
    url = f"https://api.telegram.org/bot{token}/sendMessage"
    r = requests.post(url, data={"chat_id": chat_id, "text": text}, timeout=10)
