telegram-logger
A simple Python script using Telethon to log all (or some) messages a user or bot account can see on Telegram.
Requirements
- Python 3.6 or newer
- Python package dependencies:
poetry install
orpip install -r requirements.txt
- A Telegram user or bot account
Usage
Set your api_id
and api_hash
in config.toml
. You can get this from "API development tools" on https://my.telegram.org/. Note that this authenticates an app, not a user.
When you start the script for the first time, you will be prompted for credentials. Upon successful authentication, it will start logging all messages it can see to stdout.
You can set enabled_chats
and disabled_chats
in the config to a list of chat IDs to control which chats should be logged (the default is all).
