Raw Invoke: Pinning a Message
Part of the Examples. Call channels.updatePinnedMessage directly through the raw invoke escape hatch.
Source: example/39_raw_invoke_pin_message.dart

// 39 — RAW INVOKE: PINNING A MESSAGE
// ============================================================================
//
// A second example of the escape hatch from 09_raw_invoke_escape_hatch.dart —
// pinning isn't wrapped by any ptgc namespace, so this goes straight at
// messages.updatePinnedMessage. The pattern is always the same: build the
// InputPeer yourself via client.peers (same helper every ptgc namespace
// method uses internally), then call client.invoke with the raw TL method.
//
// HOW TO RUN:
// 1. Edit chatUsername and messageId below (send yourself a message with
// 08_send_and_listen.dart first if you need a message id).
// 2. dart run example/39_raw_invoke_pin_message.dart
// ============================================================================
import 'package:ptgc/ptgc.dart';
import 'package:ptgc/raw.dart' as t;
const chatUsername = 'your_chat_here';
const messageId = 123;
Future<void> main() async {
final client = TelegramClient.fromEnv();
await client.connect();
if (!client.isSignedIn) {
print('Not logged in — run 01_login.dart first.');
await client.disconnect();
return;
}
final chat = await client.chats.resolveUsername(chatUsername);
if (chat == null) {
print('Could not resolve @$chatUsername.');
await client.disconnect();
return;
}
await client.invoke(
t.MessagesUpdatePinnedMessage(
silent: false,
unpin: false,
pmOneside: false,
peer: client.peers.inputPeer(chat.id),
id: messageId,
),
);
print('Pinned message $messageId in ${chat.title}.');
await client.disconnect();
}
Run it from the package root:
dart run example/39_raw_invoke_pin_message.dart
