nikita f58c8601d1 Filter update, fixed bot stop, v0.4.0
- Fixed `asyncio.shield` not being awaited in `ClientManager.stop()` (that led to `next_batch` value not being saved and session not being closed properly)
- `BaseEventFilter` does not have any abstract methods anymore and can be used to use callback for any event
- `BaseEventFilter.__repr__` prints class name now
- `BaseEventFilter.__call__` returns True now
- Added `EventTypeFilter` which can be used to check if the event is an instance of some class
- Removed most room events
- Added `NewMessageFilter`, `EditedMessageFilter`, `RedactedMessageFilter`, `SenderIsFilter` and `SenderIsBotFilter`
- Removed `FormattedTextFilter`
- Text filters are derived from `NewMessageFilter` so they won't match edited messages anymore

# mab
**mab** *(MAtrix Bot)* is a **very** simple Python package that can be used to
develop **very** simple Matrix bots. I have decided to make something like this
because I wasn't satisfied by simplicity and usage of other libraries. So
this library does not aim to be "the best matrix bot library", it only aims to
be good enough for me.
## Features
The package supports the following features:
- **Filter-based callback system**
- **Images sending**
- **Videos sending with automatic thumbnail generation (requires `ffmpeg`)**
## Installation
Use `pip` to install this package:
```bash
python -m pip install git+https://git.tyukalov.su/nikita/mab@v0.4.0
```
You should specify package version you want to use, because `main` without tags
contain unstable code.
## Basic usage
This is the most simple bot you can create. It would respond to any message
that contains `hello` and `hi` words.
```python
import asyncio
from pathlib import Path
from mab import MatrixBot, MatrixBotConfig
from mab import TextContainsFilter, SenderIsBotFilter
from mab.types import RoomEventData
async def on_message(data: RoomEventData) -> None:
text = f"Your message contains {len(data.event.body)} symbols"
await data.bot.send_text_to_room(data.room, text)
async def main() -> None:
# create and start the bot
cfg = MatrixBotConfig(
matrix_homeserver_url="matrix.domain.su",
matrix_username_localpart="nagibator666",
storage_directory=Path("storage_nagibator666")
)
bot = MatrixBot(matrix_bot_config)
bot.add_callback(
~SenderIsBotFilter() & TextContainsFilter(["test", "hello", "hi"]),
on_message
)
await bot.start()
# wait for Ctrl+C
try:
while True:
await asyncio.sleep(1)
except:
pass
# stop the bot
await bot.stop()
if __name__ == "__main__":
asyncio.run(main())
```
