how to do in python to make two interval counters like the setTimeout of JS for example in python? because time.sleep() becomes a problem when having two because it will generate a delay
I need a counter in trigger_message and another one in check_signal_time where both will be a loop triggered after this counter reaches 0
I am not able to make the last message that my bot sends be edited by itself when the time is equal or greater so that it updates the last message with another one communicating that the message is obsolete for example
def trigger_message():
global last_message_id
while signal_enabled:
set_next_signal_time()
current_time = datetime.now().strftime("%H:%M")
check_signal_time(current_time, time_signal_valid)
random_interval = random.choice(time_intervals_seconds)
total_time = 3 * 60 + random_interval
message = generate_signal_message(register_link, time_signal_valid, chance_acerto)
sent_message = bot.send_message(chat_id=CHAT_ID, text=message, parse_mode='markdown')
last_message_id = sent_message.message_id
if signal_enabled:
time.sleep(total_time)
def check_signal_time(current_time, time_signal_valid):
if current_time >= time_signal_valid:
end_message = generate_end_message(register_link)
bot.edit_message_text(text=end_message, chat_id=CHAT_ID, message_id=last_message_id, parse_mode='markdown')
def set_next_signal_time():
global time_signal_valid
timezone = pytz.timezone('America/Recife') # Configura o fuso horário de Recife
next_signal_time = datetime.now(timezone) + timedelta(minutes=3) # Calcula o tempo para o próximo sinal
time_signal_valid = next_signal_time.strftime("%H:%M")
# signal_send_message.format(time_signal_valid=time_signal_valid)
print("Hora atual:", datetime.now(timezone))
print("Próximo sinal válido até:", time_signal_valid)
