Safely format messages and keep their source code maintainable.

parse-mode's Issues

Default parse-mode does not work for ctx.editMessageMedia

Here is my code:

await ctx.editMessageMedia(
  {
    media: new InputFile('file-location.png'),
    type: 'photo',
    caption: "<code>Test code here</code>",
  },
  { message_id: messageId },
);

It looks default parse-mode does not seem to work for this. I haven't tested with other edit method but it's not working with editMessageMedia for me.

It works fine if I set parse_mode explicitly.

await ctx.editMessageMedia(
  {
    media: new InputFile('file-location.png'),
    type: 'photo',
    caption: "<code>Test code here</code>",
    parse_mode: 'HTML'
  },
  { message_id: messageId },
);

Using fmt in media captions (replyFmtWithPhoto, replyFmtWithMediaGroup, editMessageMedia)

Currently, there are some limitations when using fmt with media messages in grammY:

1. replyFmtWithPhoto and replyFmtWithMediaGroup are supported in Telegraf, but there are no equivalent methods in grammY that allow using fmt in media captions during migration.
2. Although setting parse_mode in editMessageMedia is now supported (#7), it seems that we still can't use fmt here.

It would be great to have a consistent way to use fmt for formatting text across all message types, including media captions. This would make the migration process from Telegraf to grammY smoother and provide a more intuitive formatting experience for developers.

Kindly are there any plans to add support for using fmt in media captions? If not, are there any recommended tricky workarounds?

API Reference is missing

Perhaps we should add some JSDoc in order to have some actual content on https://doc.deno.land/https://deno.land/x/grammy_parse_mode/mod.ts?

Escape strings

Would be cool to have something like https://github.com/EdJoPaTo/telegram-format#escapetext built-in.

Should also support tagged templates (https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Template_literals#tagged_templates) so that we can do

ctx.escape`<b>Hello ${username}!</b>`
