This library provides extensions for thepython-telegram-bot library written and maintained by the community of PTB users.

Because this library is subject to more frequent changes than PTB, it isnot available via PyPi. You can still install it via pip:

$ pip install git+https://github.com/python-telegram-bot/ptbcontrib.git@main

If you want to use an extension that has some special requirements, you can install them on the fly as e.g.

$ pip install"ptbcontrib[extension1,extension2] @ git+https://github.com/python-telegram-bot/ptbcontrib.git@main"

Or you can install from source with:

$ git clone https://github.com/python-telegram-bot/ptbcontrib$cd ptbcontrib$ python setup.py install

You can get help in several ways:
