I wrote this code and I need to get "local time" from user's message (string type).
But I need this like integer to set timer.
There is TypeError in

"local_time = int(msg.from_user.id, msg.text)"

How can I fix it?

from aiogram import Bot, types from aiogram.dispatcher import Dispatcher from aiogram.utils import executor import time 
from Config import TOKEN

bot = Bot(token=TOKEN)
dp = Dispatcher(bot)


@dp.message_handler(commands=['start'])
async def process_start_command(message: types.Message):
    await message.reply("Hi!")


@dp.message_handler(commands=['help'])
async def process_help_command(message: types.Message):
    await message.reply("/timer - set timer")


@dp.message_handler(commands=['timer'])
async def set_timer(msg: types.Message):
    await bot.send_message(msg.from_user.id, text='How many minutes?')
    time.sleep(5)
    local_time = int(msg.from_user.id, msg.text)
    local_time_b = int(local_time * 60)
    await bot.send_message(msg.from_user.id, text='Timer set')
    time.sleep(local_time_b)
    await bot.send_message(msg.from_user.id, text='The timer has worked')

print("Hello")

if __name__ == '__main__':
    executor.start_polling(dp)

local_time = int(msg.from_user.id, msg.text)

TypeError: 'str' object cannot be interpreted as an integer

The int function requires the text as first parameter, the second (optional) is the base (which you need if you Python to interpret the string with a different base - ie binany)

local_time = int(msg.text)

The msg.text is the user input (it must be a number) which it is casted to int.

If you process the input via a command handler you need to consider that the text message includes the command ie /start 12.
One option is to remove the command and obtain the following value(s)

# remove '/start'
interval = msg.text[7:]
local_time = int(interval)
print(local_time)

  • Doesn't work. local_time = int(msg.text) ValueError: invalid literal for int() with base 10: '/timer' – LogDog Nov 01 '20 at 18:30
  • what does the user type? it must be a valid number (which the code tried to cast to int to set it for the timer) – Beppe C Nov 01 '20 at 19:34
  • I'm the user. I write an integer ("1", for example) and I get ValueError. What should I do? – LogDog Nov 01 '20 at 19:58
  • You try to cast the number catching any exception. If there is an exception you can ask please enter a valid number – Beppe C Nov 01 '20 at 20:08
  • Compiler need a number to set timer. I send this number, but compiler thinks this is string. How can I convert string ("1") to integer (1)? This is my question. – LogDog Nov 02 '20 at 16:30
  • I used. local_time = int(msg.text) ValueError: invalid literal for int() with base 10: '/timer' – LogDog Nov 03 '20 at 19:00
  • The text message is the actual command `/timer`, which is not a valid number. I added in the answer how to extract the value after the command `/timer 10` – Beppe C Nov 04 '20 at 09:03

First of all

Stop using time.sleep() in async functions. Use await asyncio.sleep() instead!

Second

@dp.message_handler(commands=['timer'])
async def timer_handler(message: Message):
    # get args from message (it's `str` type!) 
    timer_string = message.get_args()
    
    # let's try to convert it to `int`
    try:
        timer = int(timer_string)
    except (ValueError, TypeError):
        return await message.answer("Please set a digit for timer. E.g.: /timer 5")
    
    # success! timer is set!
    await message.answer(f'Timer set for {timer}')
    
    # sleeping (this way, instead of blocking `time.sleep`)
    await asyncio.sleep(timer)
    
    # it's time to send message
    await message.answer("It's time! :)")
