Telegram bots now supports inline queries, which allows the bot to provide information even if it isn't in that specific group. I plan to implement the feature with the following API:
@bot.inline(cache=60, private=True, paginate=10)defprocess_inline(user, query):
ifnotquery:
returnFalse# do not send the repliesi=1whileTrue:
# Send an article with `i` as the title and "A number" as the contentyieldbotogram.inline_article(str(i), "A number")
i+=1
Because it's implemented as a generator, it's possible to implement pagination framework-side without processing every item you might send. In the example above, most of the times you will process only the first 10-20 numbers, but the user is able to scroll down how much he wants.
