Send Telegram Message with Python (and formatted tables)

Here is how you can send automatically a new post on Telegram using Python
This lets you include formatted tables of data, which I think is very difficult if not impossible if you post manually

Here is the Code
######### Code ###############

import prettytable as pt
from telethon import TelegramClient
import telethon.sync

# Use your own values here from https://my.telegram.org/auth
api_id =
api_hash = ''
link='https://t.me/thomasmoor'
name='app'

table = pt.PrettyTable(['Russian', 'English'])
table.align['Russian'] = 'l'
table.align['English'] = 'l'

data = [
('календарь','calendar')
,('один календарный год','one calendar year')
]

for russian, english in data:
table.add_row([russian, english])

client = TelegramClient(name, api_id, api_hash)

try:
client.start()
channel = client.get_entity(link)
client.send_message(channel,
f'Here is data:&ltpre&gt{table}&lt/pre&gt',parse_mode='html')
finally:
print("Disconnect...")
client.disconnect()
