How to attach a photo to a list item in python?

Question

Python

I am writing a chatbot for telegram. When you click on the button, a random element of the list is displayed (prediction for the day using Tarot cards). It is necessary that not only the list element is displayed, but also the map photo. What team can do this?

Answer 1

firstly, you don’t need to name variables with PL keywords ( list )
secondly, in this case, the data structure is better suited - a dictionary

from pprint import pprint
cards = {'card_' + str(x): {'name': x, 'desc': x, 'photo': x} for x in range(1,22)}
cards['card_21']['name'] = 'Мир'
cards['card_21']['desc'] = 'Завершенность бла бла бла'
cards['card_21']['photo'] = 'C:/Tools/tmp/card_21.png'
pprint(cards)
{'card_1': {'desc': 1, 'name': 1, 'photo': 1},
 'card_10': {'desc': 10, 'name': 10, 'photo': 10},
 'card_11': {'desc': 11, 'name': 11, 'photo': 11},
 'card_12': {'desc': 12, 'name': 12, 'photo': 12},
 'card_13': {'desc': 13, 'name': 13, 'photo': 13},
 'card_14': {'desc': 14, 'name': 14, 'photo': 14},
 'card_15': {'desc': 15, 'name': 15, 'photo': 15},
 'card_16': {'desc': 16, 'name': 16, 'photo': 16},
 'card_17': {'desc': 17, 'name': 17, 'photo': 17},
 'card_18': {'desc': 18, 'name': 18, 'photo': 18},
 'card_19': {'desc': 19, 'name': 19, 'photo': 19},
 'card_2': {'desc': 2, 'name': 2, 'photo': 2},
 'card_20': {'desc': 20, 'name': 20, 'photo': 20},
 'card_21': {'desc': 'Завершенность бла бла бла',
             'name': 'Мир',
             'photo': 'C:/Tools/tmp/card_21.png'},
 'card_3': {'desc': 3, 'name': 3, 'photo': 3},
 'card_4': {'desc': 4, 'name': 4, 'photo': 4},
 'card_5': {'desc': 5, 'name': 5, 'photo': 5},
 'card_6': {'desc': 6, 'name': 6, 'photo': 6},
 'card_7': {'desc': 7, 'name': 7, 'photo': 7},
 'card_8': {'desc': 8, 'name': 8, 'photo': 8},
 'card_9': {'desc': 9, 'name': 9, 'photo': 9}}

As you can see from the code above, the 'photo' key and the path to the file value are added to the dictionary.
and then you need to transfer it through the bot after reading the file

with open(cards['card_21']['photo'], "rb") as file:
    data = file.read()
bot.send_photo(message.from_user.id, photo=data)

but before these you need to write a function that will take an argument - the card ID and substitute it in open ()
