Requirements
Installation
::
$ pip install line-bot-sdk
Synopsis
Usage:
.. code:: python
from flask import Flask, request, abort
from linebot.v3 import (
WebhookHandler
)
from linebot.v3.exceptions import (
InvalidSignatureError
)
from linebot.v3.messaging import (
Configuration,
ApiClient,
MessagingApi,
ReplyMessageRequest,
TextMessage
)
from linebot.v3.webhooks import (
MessageEvent,
TextMessageContent
)
app = Flask(__name__)
configuration = Configuration(access_token='YOUR_CHANNEL_ACCESS_TOKEN')
handler = WebhookHandler('YOUR_CHANNEL_SECRET')
@app.route("/callback", methods=['POST'])
def callback():
# get X-Line-Signature header value
signature = request.headers['X-Line-Signature']
# get request body as text
body = request.get_data(as_text=True)
app.logger.info("Request body: " + body)
# handle webhook body
try:
handler.handle(body, signature)
except InvalidSignatureError:
app.logger.info("Invalid signature. Please check your channel access token/channel secret.")
abort(400)
return 'OK'
@handler.add(MessageEvent, message=TextMessageContent)
def handle_message(event):
with ApiClient(configuration) as api_client:
line_bot_api = MessagingApi(api_client)
line_bot_api.reply_message_with_http_info(
ReplyMessageRequest(
reply_token=event.reply_token,
messages=[TextMessage(text=event.message.text)]
)
)
if __name__ == "__main__":
app.run()
API

Webhook
WebhookParser
※ You can use WebhookParser
\_\_init\_\_(self, channel\_secret)
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
.. code:: python
parser = linebot.v3.WebhookParser('YOUR_CHANNEL_SECRET')
parse(self, body, signature, as_payload=False)
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Parses the webhook body, and returns a list of Event objects or a WebhookPayload object (depending on as_payload).
If the signature does NOT match, ``InvalidSignatureError`` is raised.
.. code:: python
events = parser.parse(body, signature)
for event in events:
do_something(event)
.. code:: python
payload = parser.parse(body, signature, as_payload=True)
for event in payload.events:
do_something(payload.event, payload.destination)
WebhookHandler
※ You can use WebhookHandler
__init__(self, channel_secret)
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
.. code:: python
handler = linebot.v3.WebhookHandler('YOUR_CHANNEL_SECRET')
handle(self, body, signature)
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Handles webhooks with handlers added
by the decorators add <#add-self-event-message-none>
__ and default <#default-self>
__.
If the signature does NOT match, InvalidSignatureError
is raised.
.. code:: python
handler.handle(body, signature)
add(self, event, message=None)
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Add a handler method by using this decorator.
.. code:: python
@handler.add(MessageEvent, message=TextMessage)
def handle_message(event):
line_bot_api.reply_message(
ReplyMessageRequest(
reply_token=event.reply_token,
messages=[TextMessage(text=event.message.text)]
)
)
When the event is an instance of MessageEvent and event.message is an instance of TextMessage,
this handler method is called.
.. code:: python
@handler.add(MessageEvent)
def handle_message(event, destination):
# do something
If the arity of the handler method is more than one,
a destination property in a webhook request is passed to it as the second argument.
.. code:: python
@handler.add(FollowEvent)
def handle_follow():
# do something
If the arity of the handler method is zero, the handler method is called with no arguments.
default(self)
^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Set the default handler method by using this decorator.
.. code:: python
@handler.default()
def default(event):
print(event)
If there is no handler for an event, this default handler method is called.
WebhookPayload

- WebhookPayload
- destination

How to deserializes JSON to FlexMessage or RichMenu
line-bot-python-sdk provides from_json
method for each model.
It deserializes the JSON into the specified model.
Thus, you can send a JSON designed with Flex Message Simulator <https://developers.line.biz/console/fx/>
__.
.. code:: python
bubble_string = """{ type:"bubble", ... }"""
message = FlexMessage(alt_text="hello", contents=FlexContainer.from_json(bubble_string))
line_bot_api.reply_message(
ReplyMessageRequest(
reply_token=event.reply_token,
messages=[message]
)
)
How to get x-line-request-id header and error message
You may need to store the ``x-line-request-id`` header obtained as a response from several APIs.
In this case, please use ``~_with_http_info`` functions. You can get headers and status codes.
The ``x-line-accepted-request-id`` or ``content-type`` header can also be obtained in the same way.
.. code:: python
response = line_bot_api.reply_message_with_http_info(
ReplyMessageRequest(
reply_token=event.reply_token,
messages=[TextMessage(text='see application log')]
)
)
app.logger.info("Got response with http status code: " + str(response.status_code))
app.logger.info("Got x-line-request-id: " + response.headers['x-line-request-id'])
app.logger.info("Got response with http body: " + str(response.data))
You can get error messages from ``ApiException`` when you use ``MessagingApi``. Each client defines its own exception class.
.. code:: python
from linebot.v3.messaging import ApiException, ErrorResponse
try:
line_bot_api.reply_message_with_http_info(
ReplyMessageRequest(
reply_token='invalid-reply-token',
messages=[TextMessage(text='see application log')]
)
)
except ApiException as e:
app.logger.info("Got response with http status code: " + str(e.status))
app.logger.info("Got x-line-request-id: " + e.headers['x-line-request-id'])
app.logger.info("Got response with http body: " + str(ErrorResponse.from_json(e.body)))
When you need to get ``x-line-accepted-request-id`` header from error response, you can get it: ``e.headers['x-line-accepted-request-id']``.

Versioning
----------
This project respects semantic versioning
See http://semver.org/
Version 3.x
-----------
LINE's SDK developer team decided to generate SDK code based on OpenAPI spec. https://github.com/line/line-openapi
As a result, LINE bot sdk 3.x is not compatible with 2.x. It can follow the future API changes very quickly.
We will be maintaining only ``linebot.v3`` going forward.
To utilize the latest features, we recommend you gradually transition to ``linebot.v3`` modules in your application, although you can still continue to use the 2.x ``linebot`` modules.
While we won't update ``linebot`` modules anymore, users can still continue to use the version 2.x ``linebot`` modules.
We also welcome pull requests for the version ``2.x`` and ``3.x`` modules.
How to suppress deprecation warnings
------------------------------------
If you keep using old line-bot-sdk library (``version < 3.x``) but use ``3.x``, you'll get
::
LineBotSdkDeprecatedIn30: Call to deprecated method get_bot_info. (Use 'from linebot.v3.messaging import MessagingApi' and 'MessagingApi(...).get_bot_info(...)' instead. See https://github.com/line/line-bot-sdk-python/blob/master/README.rst for more details.) -- Deprecated since version 3.0.0.
If it's noisy, you can suppress this warning as follows.
.. code:: python
import warnings
from linebot import LineBotSdkDeprecatedIn30
## your code here
...
if __name__ == '__main__':
warnings.filterwarnings("ignore", category=LineBotSdkDeprecatedIn30)
