Add profile photo to response

[xstu25]

Hello. Thanks a lot for your amazing script.

Is there a way to access to Telegram profile picture of the account found ?

Thanks for reply.

This is a good idea. It is very possible as Telethon returns the UserProfilePhoto in its existing response. There is also the download_profile_photo method that would be suitable for this.

The behaviour should be accessed through an optional flag (that defaults to not downloading photos), something like:

telegram-phone-number-checker --download-profile-photos --phone-numbers +1234567890

The changes would likely need to be made in this block:

telegram-phone-number-checker/telegram_phone_number_checker/main.py

Lines 57 to 82 in 80d5eb1

	# Attempt to remove the contact from the address book.
	# The response from DeleteContactsRequest contains more information than from ImportContactsRequest
	updates_response: types.Updates = await client(
	functions.contacts.DeleteContactsRequest(id=[users[0].get("id")])
	)
	user = updates_response.users[0]
	# getting more information about the user
	result.update(
	{
	"id": user.id,
	"username": user.username,
	"usernames": user.usernames,
	"first_name": user.first_name,
	"last_name": user.last_name,
	"fake": user.fake,
	"verified": user.verified,
	"premium": user.premium,
	"mutual_contact": user.mutual_contact,
	"bot": user.bot,
	"bot_chat_history": user.bot_chat_history,
	"restricted": user.restricted,
	"restriction_reason": user.restriction_reason,
	"user_was_online": get_human_readable_user_status(user.status),
	"phone": user.phone,
	}
	)

We would welcome a PR to implement this! 🎉
