API Usage
Python Library Integration
from telegram_analytics import GroupAnalyzer, ReportGenerator
import os
# Initialize analyzer
analyzer = GroupAnalyzer(
bot_token=os.environ['TELEGRAM_BOT_TOKEN'],
group_id=os.environ['TELEGRAM_GROUP_ID']
)
# Get member statistics
member_stats = analyzer.get_member_stats()
print(f"Total members: {member_stats['total']}")
print(f"New today: {member_stats['joined_today']}")
print(f"Left today: {member_stats['left_today']}")
# Get message statistics
message_stats = analyzer.get_message_stats(days=7)
print(f"Total messages (7d): {message_stats['total']}")
print(f"Average per day: {message_stats['avg_per_day']}")
# Get top contributors
top_users = analyzer.get_top_users(limit=10, days=30)
for user in top_users:
print(f"{user['name']}: {user['message_count']} messages")
# Generate activity heatmap
heatmap = analyzer.generate_heatmap(days=30)
heatmap.save('activity_heatmap.png')
Message Tracking
from telegram_analytics import MessageTracker
tracker = MessageTracker(database='stats.db')
# Track new message
tracker.record_message(
user_id=123456,
username='john_doe',
message_id=789,
timestamp='2026-07-02 10:30:00',
text_length=150,
has_media=False
)
# Get user activity
user_activity = tracker.get_user_activity(user_id=123456, days=7)
print(f"Messages: {user_activity['message_count']}")
print(f"Avg length: {user_activity['avg_message_length']}")
print(f"Active hours: {user_activity['most_active_hours']}")
Report Generation
from telegram_analytics import ReportGenerator
generator = ReportGenerator(
database='stats.db',
output_dir='reports'
)
# Generate daily report
daily_report = generator.generate_daily_report(
format='html',
date='2026-07-02'
)
print(f"Report saved to: {daily_report['path']}")
# Generate weekly report with charts
weekly_report = generator.generate_weekly_report(
format='pdf',
week_start='2026-06-25',
include_charts=True,
include_top_users=20
)
# Custom report
custom_report = generator.generate_custom_report(
start_date='2026-06-01',
end_date='2026-07-01',
metrics=['messages', 'users', 'growth', 'engagement'],
format='csv'
)
Activity Alerts
from telegram_analytics import AlertManager
alert_manager = AlertManager(
bot_token=os.environ['TELEGRAM_BOT_TOKEN'],
admin_ids=[123456, 789012]
)
# Set up alerts
alert_manager.configure_alerts(
min_daily_messages=50,
min_active_users=10,
max_leave_rate=0.05 # 5% leave rate threshold
)
# Check and send alerts
alert_manager.check_and_notify()
# Custom alert
if message_stats['total'] < 50:
alert_manager.send_alert(
level='warning',
message='Daily message count below threshold',
data={'current': message_stats['total'], 'threshold': 50}
)
Data Export
CSV Export
from telegram_analytics import DataExporter
exporter = DataExporter(database='stats.db')
# Export all data
exporter.export_to_csv(
output_file='telegram_stats.csv',
start_date='2026-01-01',
end_date='2026-07-02',
include_fields=['user_id', 'username', 'message_count', 'join_date']
)

# HTML with charts
report = generator.generate_html_report(
template='detailed',
include_charts=['member_growth', 'activity_heatmap', 'top_users'],
theme='dark'
)
# PDF report

Common Patterns
Automated Daily Reports
import schedule
import time
def send_daily_report():
analyzer = GroupAnalyzer(
bot_token=os.environ['TELEGRAM_BOT_TOKEN'],
group_id=os.environ['TELEGRAM_GROUP_ID']
)
report = analyzer.generate_daily_summary()
analyzer.send_message(
chat_id=os.environ['TELEGRAM_GROUP_ID'],
text=report,
parse_mode='Markdown'
)
# Schedule daily at 9 AM
schedule.every().day.at("09:00").do(send_daily_report)
while True:
schedule.run_pending()
time.sleep(60)
Real-time Activity Monitoring
from telegram import Update
from telegram.ext import Updater, MessageHandler, Filters
def track_message(update: Update, context):
tracker = MessageTracker(database='stats.db')
tracker.record_message(
user_id=update.effective_user.id,
username=update.effective_user.username,
message_id=update.message.message_id,
timestamp=update.message.date,
text_length=len(update.message.text or ''),
has_media=bool(update.message.photo or update.message.video)
)
updater = Updater(token=os.environ['TELEGRAM_BOT_TOKEN'])
updater.dispatcher.add_handler(MessageHandler(Filters.all, track_message))
updater.start_polling()
Member Change Tracking
from telegram.ext import ChatMemberHandler
def track_member_change(update: Update, context):
old_member = update.chat_member.old_chat_member
new_member = update.chat_member.new_chat_member
analyzer = GroupAnalyzer(
bot_token=os.environ['TELEGRAM_BOT_TOKEN'],
group_id=update.effective_chat.id
)
if old_member.status == 'left' and new_member.status == 'member':
analyzer.record_member_join(new_member.user.id)
elif old_member.status == 'member' and new_member.status == 'left':
analyzer.record_member_leave(old_member.user.id)
updater.dispatcher.add_handler(ChatMemberHandler(track_member_change))
Troubleshooting
Bot Not Receiving Messages
# Check bot permissions
from telegram import Bot
bot = Bot(token=os.environ['TELEGRAM_BOT_TOKEN'])
chat = bot.get_chat(chat_id=os.environ['TELEGRAM_GROUP_ID'])
print(f"Bot in chat: {chat.title}")
print(f"Bot permissions: {bot.get_chat_member(chat.id, bot.id).status}")
# Ensure bot is admin to track member changes
Database Locks
import sqlite3
# Use WAL mode for concurrent access
conn = sqlite3.connect('stats.db')
conn.execute('PRAGMA journal_mode=WAL')
conn.close()
# Or use connection pooling
from sqlalchemy import create_engine, pool
engine = create_engine(
'sqlite:///stats.db',
poolclass=pool.QueuePool,
pool_size=5,
max_overflow=10
)
Missing Historical Data
# Backfill from Telegram API
from telegram_analytics import HistoryImporter
importer = HistoryImporter(
bot_token=os.environ['TELEGRAM_BOT_TOKEN'],
group_id=os.environ['TELEGRAM_GROUP_ID']
)
# Import last 1000 messages
importer.import_history(
limit=1000,
offset_date='2026-06-01'
)
Memory Issues with Large Groups
# Use chunked processing
analyzer = GroupAnalyzer(
bot_token=os.environ['TELEGRAM_BOT_TOKEN'],
group_id=os.environ['TELEGRAM_GROUP_ID'],
batch_size=100 # Process in batches
)
# Generate reports in chunks
for chunk in analyzer.iter_message_stats(chunk_size=1000):
process_chunk(chunk)
Rate Limiting
import time
from functools import wraps
def rate_limit(calls_per_second=1):
min_interval = 1.0 / calls_per_second
last_called = [0.0]
def decorator(func):
@wraps(func)
def wrapper(*args, **kwargs):
elapsed = time.time() - last_called[0]
if elapsed < min_interval:
time.sleep(min_interval - elapsed)
result = func(*args, **kwargs)
last_called[0] = time.time()
return result
return wrapper
return decorator
@rate_limit(calls_per_second=20)
def fetch_user_data(user_id):
# Your API call here
pass
Best Practices
- Store credentials securely - Use environment variables, never hardcode tokens
- Regular backups - Schedule daily database backups
- Monitor bot health - Set up alerts for bot downtime
- Respect privacy - Only collect necessary data, inform users
- Optimize queries - Index frequently queried fields in the database
- Clean old data - Archive or remove data older than retention period

Popular data & databases skills
supabase-postgres-best-practices
supabase/agent-skills
Postgres best practices maintained by Supabase, for Postgres running anywhere. Load this skill BEFORE writing or changing anything that lives in a Postgres database: creating or altering tables and columns (including choosing column types), schema design, migrations and declarative schema files, RLS policies and the tests that verify them, indexes, triggers, database functions, queues and scheduled jobs (pgcron, pgmq), vector/semantic search (pgvector), and restoring dumps (pgrestore) or importing data. Also load it when diagnosing slow queries, high CPU, timeouts, EXPLAIN plans, connection exhaustion, locking, bloat, or rows visible to the wrong user or tenant. This is not just a performance guide — schema, migration, security, and SQL authoring tasks need these rules too, even for a one-column change or a single query.
