telegram.ext.Job#

class telegram.ext.Job(callback, context=None, name=None, job=None, chat_id=None, user_id=None)[source]#

Bases: object

This class is a convenience wrapper for the jobs held in a telegram.ext.JobQueue. With the current backend APScheduler, job holds a apscheduler.job.Job instance.

Objects of this class are comparable in terms of equality. Two objects of this class are considered equal, if their id is equal.

Note

All attributes and instance methods of job are also directly available as attributes/methods of the corresponding telegram.ext.Job object.
If job isn’t passed on initialization, it must be set manually afterwards for this telegram.ext.Job to be useful.

Changed in version 20.0: Removed argument and attribute job_queue.
