Do you want to include the chat id’s in the existing telegram library at some point?
I think it doesn’t make sense to maintain two of them in parallel.

Rolli · March 19, 2022, 7:46am

That would make sense, the existing library is from @ysc, if he agree with it i will remove mine.

Confectrician · March 19, 2022, 8:52am

Would totally make sense, since one would have to add several things otherwise for different chats.
And from what i have seen in the logs, the binding complains with some warnings when different things/bots with the same api key are online in parallel.

Maybe the blocks could use the chat id as an optional parameter at a later point and send to all configured chat ids when none is specified.

Can somebody explain how to send a picture from an item? Are only file and url working?

Wolfgang_S · November 14, 2022, 7:16pm

the picture is contained in the item and should be sent or would you like to use the item to trigger a picture to be sent ?

Wikibear · November 19, 2022, 7:11pm

Yes, its an item picture. I want to send the picture from and item. The picture is a data jpeg base64 encoded.

Wolfgang_S · November 19, 2022, 11:13pm

The telegram doc contains the following example:

rule "Send telegram with Image Item image and caption"
when
    Item Webcam_Image changed
then
    val telegramAction = getActions("telegram","telegram:telegramBot:2b155b22")
    telegramAction.sendTelegramPhoto(Webcam_Image.state.toFullString, "sent from openHAB")
end

So you should be able get the data content of your item in the required format by using YourItem.state.toFullString

Wikibear · November 20, 2022, 12:08pm

How can I do this with Blockly?

Wolfgang_S · November 20, 2022, 12:36pm

sorry, that I do not know. I am not experienced with Blockly.

According to the docu Rules Blockly - Items & Things | openHAB you may try to assign the item state to a variable and then force the string conversion. I am not sure if that will work.

In case that is already what you showed in your previous screenshot then try to cut off everything before the comma ( data…base64, ) the remaining part should be the base64 encoded picture.

Wikibear · November 20, 2022, 1:52pm

Thanks for your help, but that won’t work. This thread handle blockly and everything else don’t help me really. I tried out what you think but that don’t work.

I send out some infos:

And when i try this:

Get this:

Wolfgang_S · November 20, 2022, 4:25pm

In your post ( #7 ) you showed a screenshot of base64 encoded string that starts with data:image/jpeg;base64,, Did you print this from within blockly or how do you know that this is the content of your picture item ? Or was it even taken from a different context ?

Wikibear · November 20, 2022, 4:59pm

Thats a mistake from me. I open the picture in a new tab of the browser and i get base64 code. Sorry for that.
What you see is the info from the blockly.
