"""This module contains an object that represents a Telegram ForceReply.""" from typing import Any from telegram._telegramobject import TelegramObject class ForceReply(TelegramObject): """ Upon receiving a message with this object, Telegram clients will display a reply interface to the user (act as if the user has selected the bot's message and tapped 'Reply'). This can be extremely useful if you want to create user-friendly step-by-step interfaces without having to sacrifice privacy mode. Objects of this class are comparable in terms of equality. Two objects of this class are considered equal, if their :attr:`selective` is equal. .. versionchanged:: 20.0 The (undocumented) argument ``force_reply`` was removed and instead :attr:`force_reply` is now always set to :obj:`True` as expected by the Bot API. Args: selective (:obj:`bool`, optional): Use this parameter if you want to force reply from specific users only. Targets: 1) Users that are @mentioned in the :attr:`~telegram.Message.text` of the :class:`telegram.Message` object. 2) If the bot's message is a reply (has ``reply_to_message_id``), sender of the original message. input_field_placeholder (:obj:`str`, optional): The placeholder to be shown in the input field when the reply is active; 1-64 characters. .. versionadded:: 13.7 **kwargs (:obj:`dict`): Arbitrary keyword arguments. Attributes: force_reply (:obj:`True`): Shows reply interface to the user, as if they manually selected the bots message and tapped 'Reply'. selective (:obj:`bool`): Optional. Force reply from specific users only. input_field_placeholder (:obj:`str`): Optional. The placeholder shown in the input field when the reply is active. .. versionadded:: 13.7 """ __slots__ = ("selective", "force_reply", "input_field_placeholder") def __init__( self, selective: bool = None, input_field_placeholder: str = None, **_kwargs: Any, ): self.force_reply = True self.selective = selective self.input_field_placeholder = input_field_placeholder self._id_attrs = (self.selective,)
