A simple example to understand how Telethon library works. Read More!

Installing:

• Create a virtual enviroment to avoid some dependencies problems
• Install dependencies pip install -r requirements.txt
• Rename settings.example.py to settings.py. You must not commit that file.
• Visit Telegram website and create a new app.
• Paste APP api_id and APP api_hash into settings.py
• Paste one of your dialogs' name into CHANNEL_NAME to get its latest msgs.

In the first run the library will require your phone number to send you an activation code. The number must include the prefix (+1, +34...) . Some extra files will be created and if you remove then, the activation process will be required again.

TODO:

• Send a test message to yourself
• Show X messages from every channel
• Listen incoming messages
