Objects of this type are subscriptable with strings. See :meth:`__getitem__` for more details.
The :mod:`pickle` and :func:`~copy.deepcopy` behavior of objects of this type are defined by
:meth:`__getstate__`, :meth:`__setstate__` and :meth:`__deepcopy__`.
Tip:
Objects of this type can be serialized via Python's :mod:`pickle` module and pickled
objects from one version of PTB are usually loadable in future versions. However, we can
not guarantee that this compatibility will always be provided. At least a manual one-time
conversion of the data may be needed on major updates of the library.
.. versionchanged:: 20.0
* Removed argument and attribute ``bot`` for several subclasses. Use
:meth:`set_bot` and :meth:`get_bot` instead.
* Removed the possibility to pass arbitrary keyword arguments for several subclasses.
* String representations objects of this type was overhauled. See :meth:`__repr__` for
details. As this class doesn't implement :meth:`object.__str__`, the default
implementation will be used, which is equivalent to :meth:`__repr__`.
* Objects of this class (or subclasses) are now immutable. This means that you can't set
or delete attributes anymore. Moreover, attributes that were formerly of type
:obj:`list` are now of type :obj:`tuple`.
