How can I get Live Location in telegram bot via python?

Question

I'm using the python-telegram-bot library. I want to track a user's Live Location, but I don't know how to do it. I try to use Job Queue:

def notification(bot, job):
  updates = bot.get_updates()
  print([u.message.location for u in updates])
# Add job to queue

job = job_queue.run_repeating(notification, 10, 1, context=chat_id)
chat_data['job'] = job

But updates are void. I want to track location every 1 minutes.

Just to ellaborate on Seans answer: It can be done quite easily using the python-telegram-bot library. Whenever the location did update it can be found in update.edited_message. This only works if the user is manually sharing live location with the bot of course.

def location(bot, update):
    message = None
    if update.edited_message:
        message = update.edited_message
    else:
        message = update.message
    current_pos = (message.location.latitude, message.location.longitude)

location_handler = MessageHandler(Filters.location, location)
dispatcher.add_handler(location_handler)
