I have a telegram app that has a few different commands. How do I create a step for each unique command?

To handle different commands from your Telegram app in Pipedream, you can create a workflow with a Telegram trigger and then use conditional logic in the subsequent steps to handle each unique command. Here’s a basic example: export default defineComponent({ async run({ steps }) { const command = steps.trigger.event.command; switch (command) { case "/command1": // Handle command1 break; case "/command2": // Handle command2 break; default: // Handle unknown command break; } }, }); In this example, steps.trigger.event.command is the command received from your Telegram app. The switch statement then checks the command and executes the corresponding code block. Please note that you’ll need to replace /command1 and /command2 with your actual Telegram commands, and replace the comments with the actual code to handle each command. Also, remember to set up a Telegram trigger for your workflow. You can do this by searching for the Telegram app in the Pipedream UI and selecting the appropriate trigger.

what is the python code equiavalent of this?

To handle different commands from your Telegram app in Python, you can use conditional logic (like if-elif-else statements) to handle each unique command. Here’s a basic example: def handle_command(command): if command == "/command1": # Handle command1 pass elif command == "/command2": # Handle command2 pass else: # Handle unknown command pass In this example, command is the command received from your Telegram app. The if-elif-else statement then checks the command and executes the corresponding code block. Please note that you’ll need to replace /command1 and /command2 with your actual Telegram commands, and replace the pass statements with the actual code to handle each command. Also, remember to call handle_command function with the command received from your Telegram app.

each different command executes a unique step, is there a way i can link the python step with intergration?

Yes, you can link Python steps with integrations in Pipedream. Here’s a general process: 1. Create a new workflow in Pipedream. 2. Add a trigger for your Telegram app. This will handle incoming commands. 3. For each unique command, add a Python step. In each Python step, you can write the code to handle the corresponding command. 4. If you need to use any integrations in your Python code, you can use the pipedream package provided by Pipedream. This package includes helpers to use exported data from other steps, as well as export data from this step. Here’s a basic example of a Python step that exports a message: from pipedream.script_helpers import (steps, export) # Export a variable from this step named "message" containing the string "Hello, World!" export("message", "Hello, World!") You can replace "Hello, World!" with the actual data you want to handle for each command. Please note that you’ll need to connect your Python account to use Python steps in Pipedream. You can do this by selecting the Python app from the step menu and following the instructions to connect your account.
