Hi all. We have decided to deprecate the python-telegram-bot-raw library and no longer provide updates for it. In Februrary 2021, we introduced the library python-telegram-bot-raw that provides the telegram module without telegram.ext. Back then, we felt this to be right thing to do since the rather new v13 had introduced additional required dependencies for the JobQueue. Since then, v20 has seen the light of day. With v20, python-telegram-bot only has a single required dependency, httpx, for the networking backend. All other dependencies for opt-in functionality of telegram.ext are purely optional. Moreover, according to the numbers that we are aware of ([1], [2], [3], [4]), the python-telegram-bot-raw library never gained a considerable user base compared to python-telegram-bot. Since maintaining python-telegram-bot-raw still consumes some resources and is currently also hindering the modernization of PTBs packaging setup, we have therefore made this decision.

Hi all.
We have decided to deprecate the
python-telegram-bot-raw library and no longer provide updates for it.
In Februrary 2021, we introduced the library python-telegram-bot-raw that provides the telegram module without telegram.ext. Back then, we felt this to be right thing to do since the rather new v13 had introduced additional required dependencies for the JobQueue.
Since then, v20 has seen the light of day. With v20, python-telegram-bot only has a single required dependency, httpx, for the networking backend. All other dependencies for opt-in functionality of telegram.ext are purely optional. Moreover, according to the numbers that we are aware of ([1], [2], [3], [4]), the python-telegram-bot-raw library never gained a considerable user base compared to python-telegram-bot.
Since maintaining python-telegram-bot-raw still consumes some resources and is currently also hindering the modernization of PTBs packaging setup, we have therefore made this decision. The next release of PTB will add a corresponding warning to python-telegram-bot-raw. This will be the last update for python-telegram-bot-raw.
What does this mean to you?
Almost nothing. All you have to do is remove that trailing -raw from your requirements file. That's it. No code changes are necessary, since python-telegram-bot-raw is a subset of python-telegram-bot. No additional dependencies will be installed.
Thank you for your understanding and your continued usage and support of the python-telegram-bot library.

We’ve just released v21.1.1.
Thank you to everyone who contributed to this release.
As usual, upgrade using
pip install -U python-telegram-bot.
This is a bug fix release. It addresses a bug that was introduced in v21.1 in the new default behavior of the message_thread_id parameter of the shortcut methods Message.reply_*. Moreover, it’s now ensured that passing message_thread_id=None actually overrides the default behavior.
Bug Fixes
• Fix Bug With Parameter message_thread_id of Message.reply_* (#4207 closes #4205)
Minor Changes
• Remove Deprecation Warning in JobQueue.run_daily (#4206 by @Konano)
• Fix Annotation of EncryptedCredentials.decrypted_secret (#4199 by @marinelay closes #4198)👍 37❤ 13🎉 7🥴 1

This update brings full support for Bot API 7.2. Moreover, it removes backward compatibility for functionality deprecated in API 7.1. This is in line with our stated policy
⚠️ Please note that the Bot API update includes breaking changes for Bot.set_sticker_set_thumbnail, InputSticker and StickerSet. See also our earlier post and this GitHub thread for additional information.
To integrate the Bot API changes well into the PTB framework, the Message.repl_* methods now also automatically pass the new business_connection_id parameter and the Update.effective_* properties consider the new update types as well.
Another change for the Message.reply_* methods is they now reply in the same topic by default.
For the full list of changes and improvements, please see the below changelog.

Yesterday the Telegram team released Bot API 7.2. This update brings many changes, which we are already working on implementing. However there is one major backward incompatible change, which is the removal of the fields StickerSet.is_animated/is_video. This unfortunately breaks the method Bot.get_sticker_set and affects all versions of our library. The current workaround for this if you have v20.8+ is to directly call await bot.do_api_request("get_sticker_set", {"name": sticker_set_name}) and parse the resulting JSON return value. The upcoming version of the library will address this incompatibility. Thank you for understanding and being patient.
