Properties

Introducing

It is possible to save data in bot. Data can be numeric, text, datetime and etc.

For example:

  • Bot can have DailyBonus saved in bot prop (it is global for all bot)

  • User can have Balance saved in user prop (it is personall)

Properties can be belong for user or for bot.

Types

Properties can be:

  • integer, e.g.: 150

  • float, e.g.: 5.5

  • boolean: true, false

  • string, e.g.: "Hello world"

  • text, e.g.: "it is very big text ..... 1000 symbols here or more"

  • json, e.g.: { any: "data", here: "can", be: {used: true}, with: ["array", "too"] }

  • datetime, e.g: new Date()

Set property

// set global prop
Bot.setProperty({ name: 'myProp', value: 15 });
 
// set JSON prop for user
User.setProperty({
 name: 'BIO',
 value: { email: "test@example.com", age: 10 }
});
  • so for global prop use Bot.xxx method

  • for user's prop use User.xxx method

You can use short naming also: Bot.setProp, User.setProp

also you can use old style:

 // set global prop
Bot.setProperty("myProp", 15, "float");

Set prop for other user by id

 // set global prop
Bot.setProperty({
  name: 'otherUserProp',
  value: "test Prop",
  // you can pass other user.id for saving user prop for other user
  user_id: other_user.id
});

Set prop for other user by telegramid

 // set global prop
Bot.setProperty({
  name: 'otherUserProp',
  value: "test Prop",
  // you can pass other user.id for saving user prop for other user
  user_telegramid: other_user.telegramid
});

You can set (or read) property via bot_id and read (or set) it via telegramid. It doesn't matter and it will be the same value.

Get property

// get global prop
var myProp = Bot.getProperty('myProp');
Bot.sendMessage("prop: " + myProp);
 
// get prop for user
var bio = User.getProperty('BIO');
Bot.sendMessage("Hello, " + bio);

or get prop with default value:

// prop by default will be 15
var myProp = Bot.getProperty('myProp', 15);

You can use short naming also: Bot.getProp, User.getProp

Getting other user's prop:

Your bot must have this user

// get prop for other user
var bio = Bot.getProperty({
  name: 'BIO',
  // you can pass other user.id for getting other user prop
  user_id: other_user_id
  // or by telegramid:
  // user_telegramid: other_user_telegramid
});

You can set (or read) property via bot_id and read (or set) it via telegramid. It doesn't matter and it will be the same value.

Getting other bot prop for current user:

Your account must have this bot

// get other bot prop for cur user
var bio = Bot.getProperty({
  name: 'BIO',
  bot_id: other_bot_id  // available via bot.id
  // if needed:
  // user_id: userID // for user's prop
  // user_telegramid: tgID // for user by telegramid
});

Getting other bot prop for other user:

Your account must have this bot with this user

// get other bot prop for cur user
var bio = Bot.getProperty({
  name: 'BIO',
  bot_id: other_bot_id  // available via bot.id
  // you can pass other user.id for getting other user prop
  user_id: other_user_id
});

Delete property

Pass null to prop's value for property deleting:

// prop "myProp" with null value will be removed
Bot.setProperty("myProp", null, "float" });
