🏷️ Labels: Telegrambot, Database, Asynchronous, Debugging, Python
📂 Project: Dev
⭐ Priority: MEDIUM

Session Goal:

The primary goal of this session was to debug and enhance the asynchronous operations of a Telegram bot implementation, focusing on database integration and message processing.

Key Activities:

  • Debugging Database Issues: Analyzed and compared database connection handling in a Telegram bot with an Email bot, recommending the use of asynchronous database access with aiosqlite.
  • Fixing SQLite Table Creation: Addressed an OperationalError by ensuring the SQLite table is created asynchronously during bot initialization.
  • Handling Asynchronous Tests: Solved issues with asynchronous tests running indefinitely by adjusting the event loop and limiting message processing.
  • Preventing Infinite Loops: Implemented a stopping condition in the message-fetching function to avoid infinite loops.
  • Troubleshooting Asynchronous Execution: Analyzed and resolved event loop hangs and database table creation issues in the fetch_last_day_messages() function.
  • Implementing Stop Condition: Added a stop condition to the asynchronous loop to limit processed messages and ensure proper disconnection.

Achievements:

  • Successfully debugged and optimized the asynchronous execution of the Telegram bot, ensuring robust database integration and efficient message processing.

Pending Tasks:

  • Further testing is required to ensure the robustness of the implemented solutions in various operational scenarios.
