🤖 line-bot-sdk-python-extra

Extra feature for LINE Messaging API SDK for Python.

Installation

pip install line-bot-sdk-extra

or:

python setup.py install

To use the package:

>>> import linebotx

Features

Asynchronous API

Allows you to write non-blocking code which makes your bot respond much faster with little changes.

Synchronous:

from linebot import LineBotApi, WebhookHandler
line_bot_api = LineBotApi('YOUR_CHANNEL_ACCESS_TOKEN')
handler = WebhookHandler('YOUR_CHANNEL_SECRET')

Asynchronous:

from linebotx import LineBotApiAsync, WebhookHandlerAsync
line_bot_api = LineBotApiAsync('YOUR_CHANNEL_ACCESS_TOKEN')
handler = WebhookHandlerAsync('YOUR_CHANNEL_SECRET')

Equivalent Counterpart

linebotx	linebot
LineBotApiAsync	LineBotApi
AioHttpClient	HttpClient
AioHttpResponse	HttpResponse
WebhookHandlerAsync	WebhookHandler

NOTE: Every public method is coroutine and should be awaited. For example:

@app.route("/callback", methods=['POST'])
async def callback():
   ...
   await handler.handle(body, signature)
   ...


@handler.add(MessageEvent, message=TextMessage)
async def handle_message(event):
    await line_bot_api.reply_message(
       event.reply_token,
       TextSendMessage(text=event.message.text))

Additional Methods

coroutine LineBotApiAsync.close()

Close underlying http client.

coroutine AioHttpClient.close()

See aiohttp.ClientSession.close().

Timeout

To set a timeout you can pass aiohttp.ClientTimeout object instead of numeric value.

Examples
