To send an MP4 video file from an FTP server to a Telegram channel using Python, you will need a library requeststo interact with the Telegram API and a library ftplibto work with FTP. Below is an example script that does this.

Example script

import os
import requests
from ftplib import FTP

# Настройки FTP
ftp_host = 'ftp.example.com'
ftp_user = 'your_username'
ftp_pass = 'your_password'
video_file_name = 'video.mp4'

# Настройки Telegram
bot_token = 'ваш_токен_бота'
chat_id = '@ваш_канал'  # или ID канала

# Подключение к FTP и загрузка видеофайла
def download_video_from_ftp():
    ftp = FTP(ftp_host)
    ftp.login(ftp_user, ftp_pass)
    with open(video_file_name, 'wb') as local_file:
        ftp.retrbinary(f'RETR {video_file_name}', local_file.write)
    ftp.quit()

# Отправка видео в Telegram
def send_video_to_telegram():
    with open(video_file_name, 'rb') as video_file:
        files = {'document': video_file}
        response = requests.post(
            f'https://api.telegram.org/bot{bot_token}/sendDocument',
            data={'chat_id': chat_id},
            files=files
        )
    return response.json()

# Основной процесс
if __name__ == '__main__':
    download_video_from_ftp()
    response = send_video_to_telegram()
    print(response)
