ref / core / Context

When your bot receives a message, Telegram sends an update object to your bot. The update contains information about the chat, the user, and of course the message itself. There are numerous other updates, too: https://core.telegram.org/bots/api#update

When grammY receives an update, it wraps this update into a context object for you. Context objects are commonly named ctx. A context object does two things:

  1. ctx.update holds the update object that you can use to process the message. This includes providing useful shortcuts for the update, for instance, ctx.msg is a shortcut that gives you the message object from the update—no matter whether it is contained in ctx.update.message, or ctx.update.edited_message, or ctx.update.channel_post, or ctx.update.edited_channel_post.
  2. ctx.api gives you access to the full Telegram Bot API so that you can directly call any method, such as responding via ctx.api.sendMessage. Also here, the context objects has some useful shortcuts for you. For instance, if you want to send a message to the same chat that a message comes from (i.e. just respond to a user) you can call ctx.reply. This is nothing but a wrapper for ctx.api.sendMessage with the right chat_id pre-filled for you. Almost all methods of the Telegram Bot API have their own shortcut directly on the context object, so you probably never really have to use ctx.api at all.

This context object is then passed to all of the listeners (called middleware) that you register on your bot. Because this is so useful, the context object is often used to hold more information. One example are sessions (a chat-specific data storage that is stored in a database), and another example is ctx.match that is used by bot.command and other methods to keep information about how a regular expression was matched.

Read up about middleware on the website if you want to know more about the powerful opportunities that lie in context objects, and about how grammY implements them.

has ​

Context.has is an object that contains a number of useful functions for probing context objects. Each of these functions can generate a predicate function, to which you can pass context objects in order to check if a condition holds for the respective context object.

For example, you can call Context.has.filterQuery(":text") to generate a predicate function that tests context objects for containing text:

ts
const hasText = Context.has.filterQuery(":text");

if (hasText(ctx0)) {} // `ctx0` matches the filter query `:text`
if (hasText(ctx1)) {} // `ctx1` matches the filter query `:text`
if (hasText(ctx2)) {} // `ctx2` matches the filter query `:text`

These predicate functions are used internally by the has-methods that are installed on every context object. This means that calling ctx.has(":text") is equivalent to Context.has.filterQuery(":text")(ctx).

reactions ​

ts
reactions(): {

};

Find out which reactions were added and removed in a message_reaction update. This method looks at ctx.messageReaction and computes the difference between the old reaction and the new reaction. It also groups the reactions by emoji reactions and custom emoji reactions. For example, the resulting object could look like this:

ts
{
  emoji: ['👍', '🎉']
  emojiAdded: ['🎉'],
  emojiKept: ['👍'],
  emojiRemoved: [],
  customEmoji: [],
  customEmojiAdded: [],
  customEmojiKept: [],
  customEmojiRemoved: ['id0123'],
  paid: true,
  paidAdded: false,
  paidRemoved: false,
}

In the above example, a tada reaction was added by the user, and a custom emoji reaction with the custom emoji ‘id0123’ was removed in the same update. The user had already reacted with a thumbs up reaction and a paid star reaction, which they left both unchanged. As a result, the current reaction by the user is thumbs up, tada, and a paid reaction. Note that the current reaction (all emoji reactions regardless of type in one list) can also be obtained from ctx.messageReaction.new_reaction.

Remember that reaction updates only include information about the reaction of a specific user. The respective message may have many more reactions by other people which will not be included in this update.

Context-aware alias for api.sendChatAction. Use this method when you need to tell the user that something is happening on the bot’s side. The status is set for 5 seconds or less (when a message arrives from your bot, Telegram clients clear its typing status). Returns True on success.

Example: The ImageBot needs some time to process a request and upload the image. Instead of sending a text message along the lines of “Retrieving image, please wait…”, the bot may use sendChatAction with action = upload_photo. The user will see a “sending photo” status for the bot.

We only recommend using this method when a response from the bot will take a noticeable amount of time to arrive.
