Update Handlers

Handlers are used to instruct Electrogram about which kind of updates you’d like to handle with your callback functions. For a much more convenient way of registering callback functions have a look at Decorators instead.

from pyrogram import Client
from pyrogram.handlers import MessageHandler

app = Client("my_account")


def dump(client, message):
    print(message)


app.add_handler(MessageHandler(dump))

app.run()
