Introduce `tg_watchdog_heartbeat_every` to emit periodic INFO heartbeats.
Add cumulative diagnostics counters and richer logging for watchdog probes,
restart reasons, and disconnect‑flap triggers. Update defaults and tests
accordingly.
Introduce an active watchdog that probes the Telegram client to detect
zombie sessions and restart them in‑process. Add configurable disconnect
flap detection with a sliding window to trigger restarts after repeated
disconnects. New environment variables and config entries are added, and
the Kurigram dependency is now version‑pinned.
- Use unique temporary file paths with UUID to avoid race conditions during concurrent downloads.
- Perform atomic rename of the temp file to the final cache location and handle existing concurrent downloads.
- Clean up zero‑size and stale temporary files, including new “.tmp.<hex>” pattern.
- Extend cleanup logic to detect and remove race‑condition temp files.
- Validate and convert environment variables (TG_API_ID, TG_PROXY_PORT, API_PORT) with clear error messages and proper exit handling.
- Flush prints and replace `os._exit` with `sys.exit` for graceful termination.
- Fix URL regex in `PostParser` and guard against missing channel usernames when generating media URLs.
- Deep‑copy message lists in RSS generator to prevent mutation across calls.
- Propagate `FloodWait` exceptions to be handled by the API server instead of retrying internally.
- Enhance `TelegramClient` disconnect handling with a brief pause, shutdown check, and reconnection reset.
- Refine auth retry logic to check for actual `KeyError` instances.
Introduce optional MTProto proxy configuration sourced from environment variables, expose related settings in `config.py`, document the variables in `dockercompose.yml`, and pass the proxy configuration to the Telegram client initialization.
Add a `_shutting_down` flag to `TelegramClient` to suppress disconnect handling during intentional shutdown. The flag is set before sending SIGTERM in `_restart_app` and checked in `_on_disconnect` to ignore those events. Minor formatting adjustments were also applied to `api_server.py` (try block and `uvicorn.run` arguments).
Add queue-based background download system to improve performance and reliability:
- Introduce DOWNLOAD_SEMAPHORE to limit concurrent downloads to 3
- Add asyncio.Queue (maxsize 100) with dedicated worker for background processing
- Implement safe_get_messages and safe_download_media wrappers with timeout protection (30s and 120s)
- Add retry logic for KeyError auth failures with 5s backoff
- Replace synchronous sequential downloads with asynchronous queued processing
- Prevent event loop blocking by queuing files instead of immediate download
