### Working with files ### Working with files
* When running the server with the `--local` flag, `get_file` will give you the local file path as `file_path`. PTB detects that, so that `get_file(…).download()` just returns the local file string instead of downloading it. * When running the server with the `--local` flag, `get_file` will give you the local file path as `file_path`. PTB detects that, so that `get_file(…).download()` just returns the local file string instead of downloading it.
* When running the server with the `--local` flag, you can send files by passing `'file:///absolute/path/to/file'` instead of an URL or a file handler. Skipping the `'file://'` prefix, passing relative paths (without prefix) or even passing `pathlib.Path` objects is supported as well as a convenience feature by PTB. * When running the server with the `--local` flag, you can send files by passing `'file:///absolute/path/to/file'` instead of an URL or a file handler.

* When running the server *without* the `--local` flag, the Bot API server does *not* automatically serve the files obtained by `get_file()`. See [telegram-bot-api/#26](https://github.com/tdlib/telegram-bot-api/issues/26). SO be aware that you have to run a web server which serves them, otherwise you will run into 404 errors. * When running the server *without* the `--local` flag, the Bot API server does *not* automatically serve the files obtained by `get_file()`.
