Error when sending document (sendDocument)

See original GitHub issue

Hello, I’m currently facing an issue when I want to send a document. I tried 3 technics sending a local file, and a hosted file, neither document is sent.

Link to the Telegraf documentation

Sending local file (relativePath - asbolutePath)

bot.on('text', (ctx) => {
  const localFile = '../../public/assets/test.txt'
  return bot.telegram.sendDocument(process.env.CHAT_ID, request(localFile), [{disable_notification: true}]);
})

Sending hosted local file

With a simple server made by expressjs.

bot.on('text', (ctx) => {
  const localFile = 'http://localhost:3000/assets/test.txt'
  return bot.telegram.sendDocument(process.env.CHAT_ID, request(localFile), [{disable_notification: true}]);
})

Sending random remote file

bot.on('text', (ctx) => {
  const remoteFile = 'http://www.lehtml.com/download/js_doc.pdf'
  return bot.telegram.sendDocument(process.env.CHAT_ID, request(remoteFile), [{disable_notification: true}]);
})

I’m still getting this error

[nodemon] starting `node server.js`
App running on port 3000!

  parameters: {},
  on:
   { method: 'sendDocument',
     payload: { '0': [Object], chat_id: '-112511335', document: [Object] } } }

Does anyone has an idea of what I’m doing wrong ?

Okay I finally managed to use it 😃 In fact I did not needed to use request at all. You were right ! So the final code is :

bot.on('text', (ctx) => {
  if(ctx.message && ctx.message.text === 'doc'){
    const remoteFile = 'http://www.lehtml.com/download/js_doc.pdf'
    return bot.telegram.sendDocument(process.env.CHAT_ID, remoteFile, [{disable_notification: true}]);
  }
  return;
})

If the text sent is doc, then send the document. Thank you @sergeysova for your help !

Please, show terminal output of

bot.on('text', (ctx) => {
  const remoteFile = 'http://www.lehtml.com/download/js_doc.pdf'

  return bot.telegram.sendDocument(process.env.CHAT_ID, remoteFile, [{ disable_notification: true }]);
})
