firstOrNew in WebHookHandler

[ah-rahimi]

the firstOrNew in WebHookHandler not working

you must use firstOrCreate or better: UpdateOrCreate
& how we can add field to it?

[fabio-ivona]

What field do you want to add?

[ah-rahimi]

and now don't add to database

[ah-rahimi]

first_name
last_name
lang
user_name
and... for my bot

[fabio-ivona]

You should implement your own bot model and set it in config file

[ah-rahimi]

@fabio-ivona
i create PR for this
that i can customize it
please see: #142

[fabio-ivona]

I'm planning to add events for such handling, no need to override that method

On 22nd of August I'll be back from vacation and will take care of this

[ah-rahimi]

Excellent, thank you

[ah-rahimi]

But for now, I solved the problem in my own way :)

[fabio-ivona]

This is a clean and good solution too

[ah-rahimi]

It is a very good package
It has only a few general problems that everything is in one section
The name and username of the user should be taken from one section
Chat ID should be obtained from a section
Each is the same, and the documentation is a bit confusing
However, it has good features

[fabio-ivona]

This maps telegram data structure

[ah-rahimi]

one question: @fabio-ivona
How to recognize and take the value of the front of the start?
@username?start=somethings

[fabio-ivona]

Sorry can't understand what you are asking

[ah-rahimi]

if user click on
t.me/username?start=some-text
send request text like: /start some-text
how get some-text??

[ah-rahimi]

@fabio-ivona ?

[fabio-ivona]

Command parameters will be supported soon

[fabio-ivona]

@ahr1384 command parameters are supported in the upcoming version, you can retrieve the text after the command as a parameter of the handler function:

\hi Fabio

class CustomWebhookHandler extends WebhookHandler
{
    public function hi(string $userName)
    {
        $this->chat->markdown("*Hi* $userName, happy to be here!")->send(); // Hi Fabio, happy to be here!
    }
}

[fabio-ivona]

as this was a breaking change, this behaviour has been reverted in #161

see the new config file to enable messages from unknown chats
