Python Error while coding telegram bot in python

[onddyy]

Hello, I am having errors while coding a telegram bot, I get this code by ChatGPT, and it says this error:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "C:\Users\ohora\PycharmProjects\TelegramBot\.venv\bot.py", line 40, in <module>
main()
File "C:\Users\ohora\PycharmProjects\TelegramBot\.venv\bot.py", line 28, in main
updater = Updater(TOKEN)
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
TypeError: Updater.init() missing 1 required positional argument: 'update_queue'

I wanna code an order bot for telegram.







from telegram.ext import Updater, CommandHandler, MessageHandler, filters

TOKEN = 'mytoken'
user_orders = {}

def start(update, context):
update.message.reply_text("Welcome! How can I assist you?")

def order(update, context):
update.message.reply_text("Please enter your order.")

def handle_order(update, context):
user = update.message.from_user
order_text = update.message.text

user_orders[user.id] = order_text
update.message.reply_text(f"Order received: {order_text}. Thank you!")

def show_order(update, context):
user = update.message.from_user
if user.id in user_orders:
order_text = user_orders[user.id]
update.message.reply_text(f"Your order: {order_text}")
else:
update.message.reply_text("You haven't placed an order yet.")

def main():
= Updater(TOKEN)
dp = updater.dispatcher

dp.add_handler(CommandHandler("start", start))
dp.add_handler(CommandHandler("order", order))
dp.add_handler(MessageHandler(Filters.text & ~Filters.command, handle_order))
dp.add_handler(CommandHandler("show_order", show_order))

updater.start_polling()
updater.idle()

if name == 'main':
main()

Hi there,

What is the purpose of this bot, if you don't mind me asking?

 

[onddyy]

It is for creating simple orders via telegram like amount, price etc.+

It is for creating simple orders via telegram

According to the error message you provided, it looks like you are missing a parameter on one of the function calls

 

[onddyy]

Okay, what should I do now?

 

[Antero360]

Okay, what should I do now?

Let me ask this, you mentioned you got the code from chatGPT... do you understand the error itself? I am only asking to make sure you understand why you are getting that error

 

[onddyy]

ehmm, I have never coded in Python, sooo, no I dont understand the error

 

[Antero360]

ehmm, I have never coded in Python, sooo, no I dont understand the error

So, this here:

"C:\Users\ohora\PycharmProjects\TelegramBot\.venv\bot.py", line 28, in main

TypeError: Updater.init() missing 1 required positional argument: 'update_queue'

Is telling you that on in file bot.py, the code on line 28, is missing a parameter. This means that Updater(TOKEN), should be something like this

updater = Updater(TOKEN,0)

 

[onddyy]

Yea, I fixed line 28, but it has problem with line 29, this is the error:

Traceback (most recent call last):
File "C:\Users\ohora\PycharmProjects\TelegramBot\.venv\bot.py", line 40, in <module>

File "C:\Users\ohora\PycharmProjects\TelegramBot\.venv\bot.py", line 29, in main
dp = updater.dispatcher
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
AttributeError: 'Updater' object has no attribute 'dispatcher'

dp = updater.dispatcher
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

Try changing the line from
dp = updater.dispatcher

to this
dp = updater.dispatcher()

 

[onddyy]

did that, but doesnt work

ok, so remove that line, since the error message matches the last message.

 

[onddyy]

did that, still doesnt work

ok, so since dp is needed, that line is necessary. The only thing that concerns me is the fact that Updater doesn't have the call to dispatcher as an attribute... I am thinking it may be a different call. Can you try the following line?

dp = updater.dispatch()

 

[onddyy]

still doesnt work, you already said to me to do this

ok, so after a bit of digging, it looks like this error was previously recorded on StackOverflow. According to the top answer, it looks like you may need to install a different version of the telegram library the code is using. Are you working on a Windows machine, or Linux machine?
