Library was created to give opportunity to launch some things from time to time according to some schedule in runtime of applications.

"},{"location":"krontab/index.html#how-to-use","title":"How to use","text":"

Here you may find the builder for Krontab templates creation.

There are several ways to configure and use this library:

Anyway, to start some action from time to time you will need to use one of extensions/functions:

val kronScheduler = /* creating of KronScheduler instance */;\n\nkronScheduler.doWhile {\n    // some action\n    true // true - repeat on next time\n}\n
"},{"location":"krontab/index.html#including-in-project","title":"Including in project","text":"

If you want to include krontab in your project, just add next line to your dependencies part:

implementation \"dev.inmo:krontab:$krontab_version\"\n

Next version is the latest currently for the library:

For old version of Gradle, instead of implementation word developers must use compile.

"},{"location":"krontab/index.html#config-from-string","title":"Config from string","text":"

Developers can use more simple way to configure repeat times is string. String configuring like a crontab, but with a little bit different meanings:

/--------------- Seconds\n| /------------- Minutes\n| | /----------- Hours\n| | | /--------- Days of months\n| | | | /------- Months\n| | | | | /----- (optional) Year\n| | | | | | /--- (optional) Timezone offset\n| | | | | | |  / (optional) Week days\n* * * * * * 0o *w\n

It is different with original crontab syntax for the reason, that expected that in practice developers will use seconds and minutes with more probability than months (for example) or even years. In fact, developers will use something like:

doWhile(\"/5 * * * *\") {\n    println(\"Called\")\n    true // true - repeat on next time\n}\n

Another version:

doInfinity(\"/5 * * * *\") {\n    println(\"Called\")\n}\n

Both of examples will print Called message every five seconds.

"},{"location":"krontab/index.html#config-via-builder","title":"Config via builder","text":"

Also, this library currently supports DSL for creating the same goals:

val kronScheduler = buildSchedule {\n    seconds {\n        from (0) every 5\n    }\n}\nkronScheduler.doWhile {\n    println(\"Called\")\n    true // true - repeat on next time\n}\n

Or

val kronScheduler = buildSchedule {\n    seconds {\n        0 every 5\n    }\n}\nkronScheduler.doWhile {\n    println(\"Called\")\n    true // true - repeat on next time\n}\n

Or

val kronScheduler = buildSchedule {\n    seconds {\n        0 every 5\n    }\n}\nkronScheduler.doInfinity {\n    println(\"Called\")\n}\n

All of these examples will do the same things: print Called message every five seconds.

"},{"location":"krontab/index.html#do-functions","title":"do* functions","text":"

With regular doOnce/doWhile/doInfinity there are two types of their variations: local and timezoned. Local variations (doOnceLocal/doWhileLocal/doInfinityLocal) will pass DateTime as an argument into the block:

doInfinityLocal(\"/5 * * * *\") {\n    println(it) // will print current date time\n}\n

Timezoned variations (doOnceTz/doWhileTz/doInfinityTz) will do the same thing but pass as an argument DateTimeTz:

doInfinityTz(\"/5 * * * * 0o\") {\n    println(it) // will print current date time in UTC\n}\n

It is useful in cases when you need to get the time of calling and avoid extra calls to system time.

"},{"location":"krontab/index.html#kronscheduler-as-a-flow","title":"KronScheduler as a Flow","text":"

Any KronScheduler can be converted to a Flow<DateTime> using extension asFlow:

val kronScheduler = buildSchedule {\n    seconds {\n        0 every 1\n    }\n}\n\nval flow = kronScheduler.asFlow()\n

So, in this case any operations related to flow are available, and it is expected that they will work correctly. For example, it is possible to use this flow with takeWhile:

flow.takeWhile {\n    condition()\n}.collect {\n    action()\n}\n
"},{"location":"krontab/index.html#offsets","title":"Offsets","text":"

Offsets in this library works via passing parameter ending with o in any place after month config. Currently, there is only one format supported for offsets: minutes of offsets. To use time zones you will need to call next method with DateTimeTz argument or nextTimeZoned method with any KronScheduler instance, but in case if this scheduler is not instance of KronSchedulerTz it will work like you passed just DateTime.

Besides, in case you wish to use time zones explicitly, you will need to get KronSchedulerTz. It is possible by:

KronScheduler is the simple interface with only one function next. This function optionally get as a parameter DateTime which will be used as start point for the calculation of next trigger time. This function will return the next DateTime when something must happen.

Default realisation (CronDateTimeScheduler) can be created using several ways:

In the examples below the result of created scheduler will be the same.

"},{"location":"krontab/describing/krontabscheduler.html#crontab-like-way","title":"Crontab-like way","text":"

Crontab-like syntax

See String format for more info about the crontab-line syntax

This way will be very useful for cases when you need to configure something via external configuration (from file on startup or via some parameter from requests, for example):

val schedule = \"5 * * * *\"\nval scheduler = buildSchedule(schedule)\n\nscheduler.asFlow().onEach {\n  // this block will be called every minute at 5 seconds\n}.launchIn(someCoroutineScope)\n
"},{"location":"krontab/describing/krontabscheduler.html#lambda-way","title":"Lambda way","text":"

In case of usage builder (lets call it lambda way), you will be able to configure scheduler in more type-safe way:

val scheduler = buildSchedule {\n  seconds {\n    at(5)\n  }\n}\n\nscheduler.asFlow().onEach {\n  // this block will be called every minute at 5 seconds\n}.launchIn(someCoroutineScope)\n
"},{"location":"krontab/describing/krontabscheduler.html#custom-scheduler","title":"Custom scheduler","text":"

You are always able to use your own realisation of scheduler. For example:

class RandomScheduler : KronScheduler {\n  override suspend fun next(relatively: DateTime): DateTime {\n    return relatively + DateTimeSpan(seconds = Random.nextInt() % 60)\n  }\n}\n

In the example above we have created RandomScheduler, which will return random next time in range 0-60 seconds since relatively argument.

Currently the library support next syntax for date/time elements:

"},{"location":"krontab/describing/string-format.html#ranges","title":"Ranges","text":"

Ranges are working like common rangeTo (or ..) in kotlin:

Start/step is a little bit more complicated syntax. It means start from the first element, repeat triggering every second element. Examples:

You are always may create your own scheduler. In this section will be presented different ways and examples around standard CronDateTimeScheduler builders buildSchedule. You can read about schedulers in KrontabScheduler

Currently, buildSchedule is the recommended start point for every scheduler. Usually, it is look like:

val scheduler = buildSchedule(\"5 * * * *\")\n

Or:

val scheduler = buildSchedule {\n  seconds {\n    at(5)\n  }\n}\n

It is simple and easy-to-use tool for logging on the most popular platforms in Kotlin Multiplatform:

By default, KSLog is using built-in tools for logging on each supported platform:

But you always may create your logger and customize as you wish:

KSLog.default = KSLog { level: LogLevel, tag: String?, message: Any, throwable: Throwable? ->\n    // do your logging\n}\n

This library also supports native targets in experimental mode. By default, all native targets will use simple printing in the console

Just use some boring extensions like:

There are several important \u201cterms\u201d in context of this library:

Every logging extension (like KSLog.i) have its analog with lazy inited message text and the same one with suffix S (like KSLog.iS) for the suspendable message calculation.

Default logger can be created by passing defaultTag and one of variants log level filters: set or minimal loggable level. In JVM you also may setup any logger as base logger for default realizations of KSLog. Besides, you may use your own callback (on any target platform) as output of logging:

val logger = KSLog { logLevel, optionalTag, message, optionalThrowable ->\n    println(\"[$logLevel] $optionalTag - $message: $optionalThrowable.stackTraceToString()\")\n}\n

In the example above we will take the logger which will just print incoming data as common output.

Message type notice

On this page all the messages will be just simple String, but you may pass any object as the message

As has been said in the setup section, this library contains next levels of logging with their default representations on each platform:

Weight (by order) LogLevel name JS JVM Loggers Android 0 TRACE console.trace + console.debug Level.FINEST Log.d 1 DEBUG console.debug Level.FINER Log.d 2 VERBOSE console.info Level.FINE Log.v 3 INFO console.info Level.INFO Log.i 4 WARNING console.warn Level.WARNING Log.w 5 ERROR console.error Level.SEVERE Log.e 6 ASSERT console.error Level.SEVERE Log.wtf

Each of these levels have fullname and shortname shortcat extensions:

And any of these shortcuts may accept one of several arguments combinations:

So, when you want to log some expected exception, there are three common ways to do it:

val logger = KSLog.default\n\n// with callback\nlogger.info(tag, throwable) {\n  \"Some your message for this event\"\n}\n\n// with suspendable callback\nlogger.infoS(tag, throwable) {\n  withContext(Dispatchers.Default) {\n    \"Some your message for this event\"\n  }\n}\n\n// Just with message\nlogger.info(\"Some your message for this event\", throwable)\n\n// With message and tag as strings\nlogger.info(tag, \"Some your message for this event\", throwable)\n

Of course, any of this calls can be shortenned:

val logger = KSLog.default\n\n// with callback\nlogger.i(tag, throwable) {\n  \"Some your message for this event\"\n}\n\n// with suspendable callback\nlogger.iS(tag, throwable) {\n  withContext(Dispatchers.Default) {\n    \"Some your message for this event\"\n  }\n}\n\n// Just with message\nlogger.i(\"Some your message for this event\", throwable)\n\n// With message and tag as strings\nlogger.i(tag, \"Some your message for this event\", throwable)\n

There is special shortcat - for base performLog. In that case the only change is that you will require to pass the LogLevel more obviously:

val logger = KSLog.default\n\n// with callback\nlogger.log(LogLevel.INFO, tag, throwable) {\n  \"Some your message for this event\"\n}\n\n// with suspendable callback\nlogger.logS(LogLevel.INFO, tag, throwable) {\n  withContext(Dispatchers.Default) {\n    \"Some your message for this event\"\n  }\n}\n\n// Just with message\nlogger.log(LogLevel.INFO, \"Some your message for this event\", throwable)\n\n// With message and tag as strings\nlogger.log(LogLevel.INFO, tag, \"Some your message for this event\", throwable)\n

OR

val logger = KSLog.default\n\n// with callback\nlogger.l(LogLevel.INFO, tag, throwable) {\n  \"Some your message for this event\"\n}\n\n// with suspendable callback\nlogger.lS(LogLevel.INFO, tag, throwable) {\n  withContext(Dispatchers.Default) {\n    \"Some your message for this event\"\n  }\n}\n\n// Just with message\nlogger.l(LogLevel.INFO, \"Some your message for this event\", throwable)\n\n// With message and tag as strings\nlogger.l(LogLevel.INFO, tag, \"Some your message for this event\", throwable)\n

In the example above baseLogger will perform logs in two ways: when it has been called directly or when we call log performing with the tag \"base\" or null. Besides, you can see there extension filtered which allow to create FilterKSLog logger with simple lambda.

This package contains mainly one file: HEXAColor. This file contains unified color with HEXA format. It consumes UInt by default constructor and r/g/b/a parameters in other main constructors:

HEXAColor(0xaaff00ffu) // 0xRGBAu as UInt\nHEXAColor(r = 0xaa, g = 0xff, b = 0x00, a = 0xff)\nHEXAColor(r = 0xaa, g = 0xff, b = 0x00, aOfOne = 1f)\n

Besides, you may use one of converters:

HEXAColor.fromAhex(0xffaaff00u) // 0xARGBu as UInt\nHEXAColor.parse(\"rgba(aa, ff, 00, ff)\")\nHEXAColor.parse(\"rgba(aa, ff, 00)\")\nHEXAColor.parse(\"#af0\")\nHEXAColor.parse(\"#af0f\")\nHEXAColor.parse(\"#aaff00\")\nHEXAColor.parse(\"#aaff00ff\")\n

Package: dev.inmo:micro_utils.resources

This package aimed to make some multiplatform support for resources of your application. As for now, there is only support for strings. Sample:

object Translations {\n    val someVariable = buildStringResource(\n        \"Sample default string\"\n    ) {\n        IetfLang.German variant lazy \"Beispiel f\u00fcr eine Standardzeichenkette\"\n    }\n}\n

In this case, you will be able to use it with next logic:

Translation.someVariable.translation(IetfLang.French) // \"Sample default string\" as default one\nTranslation.someVariable.translation(IetfLang.German) // \"Beispiel f\u00fcr eine Standardzeichenkette\" as available variant\nTranslation.someVariable.translation(IetfLang.German.DE) // \"Beispiel f\u00fcr eine Standardzeichenkette\" as available parent variant\n

To define plugin, you must use StartPlugin as supertype for your plugin. Restrictions are simple: plugins must be an object or class with empty constructor. Basic sample is here:

object YourPlugin : StartPlugin {\n    // Body of your plugin\n}\n

Each plugin may contains to parts:

object YourPlugin : StartPlugin {\n    override fun Module.setupDI(config: JsonObject) {\n        // here you may setup any DI content you wish to be available in context of current Koin module\n    }\n    override fun startPlugin(koin: Koin) {\n        // all staff from setupDI and the same function of other plugins is available in koin\n    }\n}\n

Default interface for any CRUD-oriented realization of repositories. This type of repos separated to three interfaces:

flowchart TB ReadCRUDRepo --> CRUDRepo WriteCRUDRepo --> CRUDRepo

CRUDRepo extends both ReadCRUDRepo and WriteCRUDRepo.

CRUD repos do not support forced placing of data by id when data is not in repo. That means, that you can\u2019t set data in repo by id which absent in the repository.

There are 4 real statuses:

In fact node will retrieve 6 changes of statuses:

flowchart LR subgraph Nodes/Chains tree NodeN1(N1) NodeN2(N2) class NodeN1 navigation-started; class NodeN2 navigation-resumed; subgraph RootChain direction LR NodeN1 --> NodeN2 end class RootChain navigation-resumed; end

we may say several things about the sample above:

So, we would like to add new node in the end of stack:

flowchart LR subgraph Nodes/Chains tree NodeN1(N1) NodeN2(N2) NodeN3(N3) class NodeN1 navigation-started; class NodeN2 navigation-started; class NodeN3 navigation-resumed; subgraph RootChain direction LR NodeN1 --> NodeN2 NodeN2 --> NodeN3 end class RootChain navigation-resumed; end

As we can see, N3 became RESUMED and N2 PAUSED. Let\u2019s try to remove N3:

So, it has been added, but:

And now we may remove N2 node. This action will trigger next changes:

What has happened:

  1. We solved to remove N2 node. Status is changing to stopped

After you have added your dependency, you should initialize navigation. There are several important things:

  1. Config - it is an instance of any class which extending the NavigationNodeDefaultConfig in common case
  2. Factory - usually object which may create a node or some required part for node

For example: lets imagine that we have a node Main. Here what should we do to create a node and make it workable in navigation:

data class MainConfig(\n    // this id will be used to search an html element by id in JS\n    // and Fragment by tag in Android\n    override val id: String = \"main\"\n) : NavigationNodeDefaultConfig\n

Both JS and Android platforms require ViewModel for their MVVM node variants, but it can be common as well as MainConfig:

There are several important opportunities out of the box:

"},{"location":"plagubot/opportunities_out_of_the_box.html#database-access","title":"Database access","text":"

You may access database in your plugin via koin in setupBotPlugin or as parameter in setupDI:

object YourPlugin : Plugin {\n    // ...\n    override fun Module.setupDI(\n        database: Database, // database\n        params: JsonObject\n    ) {\n        // ...\n    }\n}\n

It is simple Exposed database and you may use it in your tables.

As you may see, in the setupDI function we also have params parameter with source configuration json. In case you wish to declare and work with your own config in plugin, you may use next snippet:

object YourPlugin : Plugin {\n    @Serializable\n    data class MyConfig(\n        val param1: String,\n        val param2: Int,\n    )\n    // ...\n    override fun Module.setupDI(\n        database: Database, // database\n        params: JsonObject\n    ) {\n        single {\n            get<Json>().decodeFromJsonElement(MyConfig.serializer(), params) // register from root (1)\n        }\n        // OR\n        single {\n            get<Json>().decodeFromJsonElement(MyConfig.serializer(), params[\"yourplugin\"]!!) // register from field \"yourplugin\" (2)\n        }\n        // ...\n    }\n\n    override suspend fun BehaviourContext.setupBotPlugin(\n        koin: Koin\n    ) {\n        koin.get<MyConfig>() // getting of registered config\n    }\n}\n

  1. This variant will set GLOBAL DEFAULT logger. For example, if you will use somewhere TagLogger, it will use KSLog.default under the hood
  2. All the bots created after this setup will use new logger until more specified logger configured (see below)
  3. Passing of logger variable to the KtorRequestsExecutor or one of factories telegrabBot will lead to granular setup of logging
"},{"location":"tgbotapi/dsls/keyboards.html","title":"Keyboards","text":"

In the telegram system there are two types of keyboards:

Reply Inline Keyboard for each user in the chat Keyboard linked to the certain message

Low-level way to create keyboard looks like in the next snippet:

ReplyKeyboardMarkup(\n    matrix {\n        row {\n            add(SimpleKeyboardButton(\"Simple text\"))\n            // ...\n        }\n        // ...\n    }\n)\n

In case you wish to create inline keyboard, it will look like the same as for reply keyboard. But there is another way. The next snippet will create the same keyboard as on the screenshots above:

// reply keyboard\nreplyKeyboard {\n    row {\n        simpleButton(\"7\")\n        simpleButton(\"8\")\n        simpleButton(\"9\")\n        simpleButton(\"*\")\n    }\n    row {\n        simpleButton(\"4\")\n        simpleButton(\"5\")\n        simpleButton(\"6\")\n        simpleButton(\"/\")\n    }\n    row {\n        simpleButton(\"1\")\n        simpleButton(\"2\")\n        simpleButton(\"3\")\n        simpleButton(\"-\")\n    }\n    row {\n        simpleButton(\"0\")\n        simpleButton(\".\")\n        simpleButton(\"=\")\n        simpleButton(\"+\")\n    }\n}\n\n// inline keyboard\ninlineKeyboard {\n    row {\n        dataButton(\"Get random music\", \"random\")\n    }\n    row {\n        urlButton(\"Send music to friends\", \"https://some.link\")\n    }\n}\n
"},{"location":"tgbotapi/dsls/live-location.html","title":"Live Location","text":"

Bot API allows you to send live locations and update them during their lifetime. In this library there are several ways to use this API:

"},{"location":"tgbotapi/dsls/live-location.html#sendlivelocation","title":"sendLiveLocation","text":"

In the Bot API there is no independent sendLiveLocation method, instead it is suggested to use sendLocation with setting up live_period. In this library in difference with original Bot API live location is special request. It was required because of in fact live locations and static locations are different types of location info and you as bot developer may interact with them differently.

Anyway, in common case the logic looks like:

"},{"location":"tgbotapi/dsls/live-location.html#startlivelocation","title":"startLiveLocation","text":"

In difference with sendLiveLocation, startLiveLocation using LiveLocationProvider. With this provider you need not to handle chat and message ids and keep some other data for location changes. Instead, you workflow with provider will be next:

Besides, LiveLocationProvider contains different useful parameters about live location

"},{"location":"tgbotapi/dsls/live-location.html#handlelivelocation","title":"handleLiveLocation","text":"

This way of live locations handling is based on coroutines Flow and allow you to pass some external Flow with EditLiveLocationInfo. So, workflow:

See our example to get more detailed sample

"},{"location":"tgbotapi/dsls/text.html","title":"Text","text":"

For the text creating there are several tools. The most simple one is to concatenate several text sources to make list of text sources as a result:

val sources = \"Regular start of text \" + bold(\"with bold part\") + italic(\"and italic ending\")\n

But there is a little bit more useful way: entities builder:

val items = (0 until 10).map { it.toString() }\nbuildEntities(\" \") {// optional \" \" auto separator which will be pasted between text sources\n    +\"It is regular start too\" + bold(\"it is bold as well\")\n    items.forEachIndexed { i, item ->\n        if (i % 2) {\n            italic(item)\n        } else {\n            strikethrough(item)\n        }\n    }\n}\n

In the code above we are creating an items list just for demonstrating that inside of buildEntities body we may use any operations for cunstructing our result list of TextSources. As a result, will be created the list which will looks like in telegram as \u201cIt is regular start too it is bold as well 0 ~~1~~ 2 ~~3~~ 4 ~~5~~ 6 ~~7~~ 8 ~~9~~\u201d.

This guide will help you choose the right keyboard for your needs and show you various API facilities available in the library to support your choice.

The first thing you need to know is that there are two types of keyboards available in the Telegram Bot API: reply and inline keyboards.

Resize option

In the screenshots above (and in the most others) you may see usage of reply keyboards without resize_keyboard. In case you will use resize_keyboard = true the keyboard will be smaller.

Note the differences in the way these keyboards are shown to a user.

A reply keyboard is shown under the message input field. It replaces the device\u2019s native input method on a mobile device.

An inline keyboard is shown as a part of the message in the chat.

"},{"location":"tgbotapi/guides/keyboards.html#simple-keyboard-interactions","title":"Simple Keyboard Interactions","text":"

When a user clicks on a simple reply keyboard button, its text is just sent in the chat.

When a user clicks on a simple inline keyboard button, nothing is sent to the chat. Instead, a callback query (a fancy way to say \u201ca request\u201d) is sent directly to the bot and the button is highlighted. It will stay highlighted until the bot acks the callback.

It\u2019s a common mistake to forget to handle callback queries

It leads to the buttons being highlighted for long periods of time, which leads to a bad user experience. Don\u2019t forget to handle these callbacks!

As new messages arrive, a reply keyboard will stay there, while the inline keyboard will stick to the message and move with it.

Ups\u2026 The reply keyboard is now far away from the message it was sent with.

Actually, they are two different unrelated entities now: the original message and the reply keyboard. A reply keyboard persists until you explicitly remove it or replace it with a different one.

It\u2019s a common mistake to forget to remove or replace reply keyboards

It leads to the keyboards being shown forever. Don\u2019t forget to remove reply keyboards when you don\u2019t need them anymore!

You also may use option one_time_keyboard and the keyboard will be automatically removed after user interaction

An inline keyboard could also be removed or changed by editing the original message it was attached to.

"},{"location":"tgbotapi/guides/keyboards.html#extended-keyboard-interactions","title":"Extended Keyboard Interactions","text":"

Keyboards are not limited to text only. They could be used to ask users for different things, like payments, locations, phone numbers, etc. They could be used to open arbitrary URLs or web apps. Telegram clients process these buttons and interact with the users in the appropriate ways.

For the full list of options, see the official documentation on reply and inline keyboards.

"},{"location":"tgbotapi/guides/keyboards.html#basic-api-classes","title":"Basic API & Classes","text":"

Now, that you know the basics, let\u2019s see how to use the library.

"},{"location":"tgbotapi/guides/keyboards.html#keyboards","title":"Keyboards","text":"

In Telegram Bot API keyboards are sent to the user as a part of an interaction via the reply_markup parameter. More specifically, this parameter is available:

Tip

editMessageReplyMarkup is specifically designed to edit a message\u2019s inline keyboard.

Sending inline keyboards is also supported in inline mode through the reply_markup parameter of the InlineQueryResult type and its inheritors. However, this inline mode is unrelated to the inline keyboards.

The reply_markup parameter accepts four different types. Two of them \u2014 ReplyKeyboardMarkup and InlineKeyboardMarkup \u2014 correspond to the reply and inline keyboards respectively. The ReplyKeyboardRemove type is used to remove reply keyboards, but it\u2019s not a keyboard itself. The last one, ForceReply, is used to force users to reply to the bot. It is not a keyboard either, but yet another dirty hack employed by the Telegram Bot API.

Now, in the library, the WithReplyMarkup is a marker interface for all the interactions which could have a replyMarkup (represents reply_markup) parameter. It is extended by the ReplyingMarkupSendMessageRequest, and then, finally, by classes like SendTextMessage. This, basically, corresponds to the Telegram Bot API.

Note

You may see all the inheritors of WithReplyMarkup interfaces in the corresponding KDoc

The other way to send a keyboard is through the replyMarkup parameter of the numerous extension methods, like sendMessage. Those are just convenient wrappers around general interaction classes, like the aforementioned SendTextMessage.

"},{"location":"tgbotapi/guides/keyboards.html#buttons","title":"Buttons","text":"

As we already know, keyboards consist of buttons. Button classes reside in the dev.inmo.tgbotapi.types.buttons package.

The base class for the reply keyboard buttons is the KeyboardButton. The base class for the inline keyboard buttons is the InlineKeyboardButton.

See their inheritors for the full list of the available buttons. The names are pretty self-explanatory and correspond to the Telegram Bot API.

For example, to send a simple reply keyboard button, use the SimpleKeyboardButton class. To request a contact from the user through the reply, use the RequestContactKeyboardButton class. To attach a URL button to the message, use the URLInlineKeyboardButton. And to attach a callback button, use the CallbackDataInlineKeyboardButton.

You get the idea.

So, to send a reply keyboard use the following code:

bot.sendMessage(\n    chatId = chat,\n    text = \"What is the best Kotlin Telegram Bot API library?\",\n    replyMarkup = ReplyKeyboardMarkup(\n        keyboard = listOf(\n            listOf(\n                SimpleKeyboardButton(\"ktgbotapi\"),\n            ),\n        )\n    )\n)\n

And here is how you send a basic inline keyboard:

bot.sendMessage(\n    chatId = chat,\n    text = \"ktgbotapi is the best Kotlin Telegram Bot API library\",\n    replyMarkup = InlineKeyboardMarkup(\n        keyboard = listOf(\n            listOf(\n                CallbackDataInlineKeyboardButton(\"I know\", \"know\"),\n                URLInlineKeyboardButton(\"Learn more\", \"https://github.com/InsanusMokrassar/ktgbotapi\")\n            ),\n        )\n    ),\n)\n

When we\u2019re done with this simple quiz, we can remove the keyboard with the following code:

bot.sendMessage(\n    chatId = chat,\n    text = \"You're goddamn right!\",\n    replyMarkup = ReplyKeyboardRemove()\n)\n

Note

Don\u2019t forget to remove the reply keyboards!

"},{"location":"tgbotapi/guides/keyboards.html#matrices","title":"Matrices","text":"

Buttons in keyboards are arranged in matrices, i.e. two-dimensional arrays, or, to say in layperson\u2019s terms, rows and columns. In contrast to the matrices you\u2019ve learned in school, keyboards are not always necessarily square. Try it:

bot.sendMessage(\n    chatId = chat,\n    text = \"In contrast to the matrices you've learned in school, keyboards are not always necessary square.\",\n    replyMarkup = InlineKeyboardMarkup(\n        keyboard = listOf(\n            listOf(\n                CallbackDataInlineKeyboardButton(\"1\", \"1\"),\n                CallbackDataInlineKeyboardButton(\"2\", \"2\"),\n                CallbackDataInlineKeyboardButton(\"3\", \"3\"),\n            ),\n            listOf(\n                CallbackDataInlineKeyboardButton(\"4\", \"4\"),\n                CallbackDataInlineKeyboardButton(\"5\", \"5\"),\n            ),\n            listOf(\n                CallbackDataInlineKeyboardButton(\"6\", \"6\"),\n            )\n        )\n    )\n)\n

This way of building matrices is not very convenient, so the library provides a few eloquent DSLs to simplify that.

First, there are matrix and row, so the keyboard above can be built like this:

bot.sendMessage(\n    chatId = chat,\n    text = \"DSLs are sweet!\",\n    replyMarkup = InlineKeyboardMarkup(\n        keyboard = matrix {\n            row {\n                +CallbackDataInlineKeyboardButton(\"1\", \"1\")\n                +CallbackDataInlineKeyboardButton(\"2\", \"2\")\n                +CallbackDataInlineKeyboardButton(\"3\", \"3\")\n            }\n            row(\n                CallbackDataInlineKeyboardButton(\"4\", \"4\"),\n                CallbackDataInlineKeyboardButton(\"5\", \"5\"),\n            )\n            row {\n                +CallbackDataInlineKeyboardButton(\"6\", \"6\")\n            }\n        },\n    )\n)\n

Note

Those plus signs are mandatory.

Note

There are two different row functions here. Can you spot the difference?

A single-row matrix can be built with a flatMatrix:

flatMatrix {\n    +CallbackDataInlineKeyboardButton(\"1\", \"1\")\n    +CallbackDataInlineKeyboardButton(\"2\", \"2\")\n    +CallbackDataInlineKeyboardButton(\"3\", \"3\")\n    +CallbackDataInlineKeyboardButton(\"4\", \"4\")\n    +CallbackDataInlineKeyboardButton(\"5\", \"5\")\n}\n

But the most convenient way to build a simple keyboard is to use the constructor-like methods: InlineKeyboardMarkup and ReplyKeyboardMarkup. Note, that they are named just like the corresponding constructor, but take a vararg of buttons. They create flat matrices, i.e. single rows.

"},{"location":"tgbotapi/guides/keyboards.html#keyboards-dsl","title":"Keyboards DSL","text":"

Finally, there are inlineKeyboard and replyKeyboard

DSL methods above rely on Kotlin\u2019s feature of receivers and extensions. So, the magic is done by MatrixBuilder and RowBuilder. That\u2019s why you must use the plus sign to add buttons to the matrix: it\u2019s just an overloaded operator call, another cool Kotlin feature widely used to create sweet DSLs.

Another bonus of using these DSLs is button builders, like payButton, dataButton, and urlButton:

bot.sendMessage(\n    chatId = chat,\n    text = \"All in one!\",\n    replyMarkup = InlineKeyboardMarkup(\n        keyboard = matrix {\n            row {\n                payButton(\"Send money\")\n                dataButton(\"Ok\", \"ok\")\n                urlButton(\"Google\", \"https://google.com\")\n            }\n        },\n    )\n)\n

Reply keyboard builders provide similar extensions, e.g. requestLocationButton.

So, choose the style you like \u2014 from plain Kotlin lists to sweet DSLs \u2014 and use it!

"},{"location":"tgbotapi/guides/keyboards.html#working-with-keyboards","title":"Working with keyboards","text":"

Working with keyboards is not something special in Telegram Bot API. As you have already seen, keyboards are just message parameters. Similarly, keyboard interactions are represented by regular Updates. I.e. when a user interacts with a keyboard, the bot receives an update.

On the other hand, the library is heavily typed, so the actual type of update you would receive varies.

"},{"location":"tgbotapi/guides/keyboards.html#reply-keyboards","title":"Reply keyboards","text":"

As it was said, reply keyboards cause Telegram clients to send regular messages back to the bot. Peruse this example:

bot.buildBehaviourWithLongPolling {\n    bot.sendMessage(\n        chatId = chat,\n        text = \"\ud83d\udc6e Turn in your accomplices or be prepared for a lengthy \ud83c\udf46 incarceration \u26d3 \ud83d\udc4a \u203c\",\n        replyMarkup = replyKeyboard {\n            +SimpleKeyboardButton(\n                \"I ain't no rat! \ud83d\udeab\ud83d\udc00\ud83e\udd10\ud83d\ude45\"\n            )\n            +RequestUserKeyboardButton(\n                \"Rat out \ud83d\udc00 a friend \ud83d\udc64\",\n                KeyboardButtonRequestUser.Common(RequestId.random())\n            )\n            +RequestChatKeyboardButton(\n                \"Rat out \ud83d\udc00 a group of friends \ud83d\udc65\",\n                KeyboardButtonRequestChat.Group(RequestId.random())\n            )\n        }\n    )\n\n    onText { message: CommonMessage<TextContent> ->\n        assert(message.text == \"I ain't no rat! \ud83d\udeab\ud83d\udc00\ud83e\udd10\ud83d\ude45\")\n        bot.reply(\n            to = message,\n            text = \"Good, you're going to jail alone! \u26d3\ud83e\uddd1\u26d3\",\n            replyMarkup = ReplyKeyboardRemove()\n        )\n    }\n\n    onUserShared { message: PrivateEventMessage<UserShared> ->\n        bot.reply(\n            to = message,\n            text = \"Haha, you and you friend are both going to jail! \u26d3\ud83d\udc6c\u26d3\",\n            replyMarkup = ReplyKeyboardRemove()\n        )\n    }\n\n    onChatShared { message: PrivateEventMessage<ChatShared> ->\n        bot.reply(\n            to = message,\n            text = \"Haha, now you're all going to jail! \u26d3\ud83d\udc68\u200d\ud83d\udc66\u200d\ud83d\udc66\u26d3\",\n            replyMarkup = ReplyKeyboardRemove()\n        )\n    }\n}.join()\n

Note

Read more about buildBehaviourWithLongPolling here

I hope you get the idea: the bot acts like a cop and asks the user to rat out his friends via a reply keyboard (it\u2019s an imaginary situation, of course). The user may refuse to cooperate, rat out a single friend or the whole imaginary group. The bot receives the user\u2019s choices as regular updates, the code above has explicit types (generally optional in Kotlin) and an assert to demonstrate this.

And here is how it works (the user selects the options in the order):

Note how you handle reply keyboards: you process regular messages. For instance, a simple text button sends a regular text message indistinguishable from a case when a user simply types the same text manually.

And don\u2019t be a rat in real life: remove the keyboards with the ReplyKeyboardRemove after you\u2019ve received the input! Otherwise, a keyboard will stay there indefinitely.

"},{"location":"tgbotapi/guides/keyboards.html#inline-keyboards","title":"Inline keyboards","text":"

Finally, to master the keyboards, you need to know how to handle the inline ones.

Again, let\u2019s explore the example. Imagine you\u2019re making a quiz where users are given a question and a set of answers. Additionally, users are given a link to the wiki page to help with the question and a Google button.

The quiz could be implemented this way:

// A simple data class to represent a question\nval question = Question(\n    image = \"https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/a/a5/Tsunami_by_hokusai_19th_century.jpg\",\n    question = \"Who painted this?\",\n    answers = listOf(\n        Answer(\"Hokusai\", correct = true),\n        Answer(\"Sukenobu\"),\n        Answer(\"Ch\u014dshun\"),\n        Answer(\"Kiyonobu I\"),\n    ),\n    wiki = \"https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ukiyo-e\",\n)\n\nbot.buildBehaviourWithLongPolling {\n    bot.sendPhoto(\n        chatId = chat,\n        fileId = InputFile.fromUrl(question.image),\n        text = question.question,\n        replyMarkup = inlineKeyboard {\n            // First row: answers\n            row {\n                for (answer in question.answers.shuffled()) {\n                    dataButton(\n                        text = answer.answer,\n                        data = \"${answer.answer}:${answer.correct}\",\n                    )\n                }\n            }\n\n            // Second row: help buttons\n            row {\n                urlButton(\"Wiki \ud83d\udc81\", question.wiki)\n                webAppButton(\"Google \ud83d\udd0d\", \"https://google.com\")\n            }\n        }\n    )\n\n    onDataCallbackQuery { callback: DataCallbackQuery ->\n        val (answer, correct) = callback.data.split(\":\")\n\n        if (correct.toBoolean()) {\n            bot.answerCallbackQuery(\n                callback,\n                text = \"$answer is a \u2705 correct answer!\",\n                showAlert = true\n            )\n        } else {\n            bot.answerCallbackQuery(\n                callback,\n                text = \"\u274c Try again, $answer is not a correct answer\u2026\",\n                showAlert = true\n            )\n        }\n    }\n}.join()\n

A few important things to note here.

First, the data buttons (they have the CallbackDataInlineKeyboardButton type, but in the code we used a neat DSL) must have unique data. If the data is not unique, Telegram clients will highlight all the buttons with the same data when a user clicks on one of them. Guess how I know that? Well, it\u2019s not in the docs, so trial and error is the only way to learn it (and many other things about the Telegram Bot API).

Second, the way you handle inline keyboards is different from the way you handle reply keyboards. Bot API will send updates with a callback_query field populated. This field, of a CallbackQuery type, represents incoming callbacks from callback buttons in inline keyboards. The library turns them into multiple callback types, like the DataCallbackQuery we used in the example. Finally, to handle these callbacks you could use onDataCallbackQuery. Alternatively, if you\u2019re not using any DSLs, you have to handle the CallbackQueryUpdate update type.

Third, the buttons got highlighted when a user clicks on them. When you\u2019re done with the callback, you need to answer it, by using the answerCallbackQuery function. Otherwise, the button will remain highlighted. Telegram clients will eventually remove the highlight, but it\u2019s still frustrating.

Finally, you could choose between two styles of acknowledgment: a simple toast-like message or a modal alert. The showAlert flag controls this behavior.

And here is the demo of the quiz:

"},{"location":"tgbotapi/guides/keyboards.html#conclusion","title":"Conclusion","text":"

Today we\u2019ve learned how to use keyboards in Telegram bots. There are two types of keyboards: reply and inline. Reply keyboards replace the device\u2019s keyboard and make clients send a message with the predefined content. Inline keyboards are buttons attached to messages. Clicking on them causes the client to send a callback to the bot. In both scenarios the bot receives an update of a corresponding type and has to acknowledge the keayboard interaction for the client to work properly.

Examples info

A lot of examples with using of Telegram Bot API you can find in this github repository

"},{"location":"tgbotapi/introduction/first-bot.html#the-most-simple-bot","title":"The most simple bot","text":"

The most simple bot will just print information about itself. All source code you can find in this repository. Our interest here will be concentrated on the next example part:

suspend fun main(vararg args: String) {\n  val botToken = args.first()\n  val bot = telegramBot(botToken)\n  println(bot.getMe())\n}\n

So, let\u2019s get understanding, about what is going on:

  1. suspend fun main(vararg args: String):
  2. val botToken = args.first(): here we are just getting the bot token from first arguments of command line
  3. val bot = telegramBot(botToken) : inside of bot will be RequestsExecutor object which will be used for all requests in any project with this library
  4. println(bot.getMe()): here happens calling of getMe extension

As a result, we will see in the command line something like

ExtendedBot(id=ChatId(chatId=123456789), username=Username(username=@first_test_ee17e8_bot), firstName=Your bot name, lastName=, canJoinGroups=false, canReadAllGroupMessages=false, supportsInlineQueries=false)\n

There are three projects:

TelegramBotAPI

Also, there is an aggregator-version tgbotapi, which will automatically include all projects above. It is most recommended version due to the fact that it is including all necessary tools around TelegramBotAPI Core, but it is optionally due to the possible restrictions on the result methods count (for android) or bundle size

"},{"location":"tgbotapi/introduction/proxy-setup.html#using-ktor-client-built-in-proxy","title":"Using Ktor Client built-in proxy","text":"

First of all, you will need to use one more library:

build.gradle:

implementation \"io.ktor:ktor-client-okhttp:2.3.5\"\n

Dependency note

In the snippet above was used version 2.3.5 which is actual for TelegramBotAPI at the moment of filling this documentation (october 11 2023, TelegramBotAPI version 9.2.2) and you can update version of this dependency in case if it is outdated.

For configuring proxy for your bot inside your program, you can use next snippet:

val botToken = \"HERE MUST BE YOUR TOKEN\" // (1)\nval bot = telegramBot(botToken) { // (2)\n    client = HttpClient(OkHttp) { // (3)\n        engine { // (4)\n            config { // (5)\n                proxy( // (6)\n                    Proxy( // (7)\n                        Proxy.Type.SOCKS, // (8)\n                        InetSocketAddress(\"127.0.0.1\", 1080) // (9)\n                    )\n                )\n            }\n        }\n    }\n}\n
  1. Here we are just creating variable botToken
  2. Start creating bot
  3. Setting HttpClient of our bot. On the time of documentation filling, OkHttp is one of the engines in Ktor system which supports socks proxy. More you can read on Ktor site in subparts about engines and proxy
  4. Start setting up of HttpClient engine
  5. Start setting up of HttpClient engine configuration
  6. Start setting up of proxy
  7. Creating proxy info object
  8. Saying that it is Socks proxy
  9. Creating address. Note that \"127.0.0.1\" and 1080 are configurable parameters

  1. Start creating telegram bot
  2. Proxy host
  3. Proxy port
  4. Username for authentication. It is optional in case your proxy do not need auth
  5. Password for authentication. It is optional in case your proxy do not need auth
  6. Creating of proxy address for Proxy
  7. Proxy address and type information
  8. Proxy authentication info. It is optional in case your proxy do not need auth
  9. Setting up of authenticator. It is optional in case your proxy do not need auth
  10. Overriding of method that will return authentication info
  11. In case when request has been sent to the proxy (common request) - using authentication
  12. Creating of HttpClient and start configure it
  13. Start setup engine

You may download file with streams or with downloading into the memory first. On low level you should do several things. They are presented in next snippet:

val bot: TelegramBot;\nval fileId: FileId;\n\nval pathedFile: PathedFile = bot.execute(GetFile(fileId))\n\nval downloadedBytes: ByteArray = bot.execute(DownloadFile(pathedFile.filePath))\n

In the snippet above we are getting file PathedFile by its FileId and use it to download file bytes into memory using DownloadFile request.

You may use almost the same way but with byte read channel allocator:

val bot: TelegramBot;\nval fileId: FileId;\n\nval pathedFile: PathedFile = bot.execute(GetFile(fileId))\n\nval channelAllocator: ByteReadChannelAllocator = bot.execute(DownloadFileStream(pathedFile.filePath))\n\nval byteReadChannel: ByteReadChannel = channelAllocator()\n

And then you may look into ByteReadChannel docs to get more info about what you can do with that.

JS Restrictions

Sending via file is accessible from all supported platforms, but there is small note about JS - due to restrictions of work with streams and stream-like data (JS have no native support of files streaming) on this platform all the files will be loaded inside of RAM before the sending to the telegram services.

Sending via file is available throw the MultipartFile. There are several wayt to get it:

There are several important things in context of this library:

So, in most cases all your request calls with simplified api of this library (like bot.getMe()) will looks like bot.execute(GetMe). Result of these calls is defined in type of any request (for example, for GetMe request the result type is ExtendedBot). As a result, you can avoid any extension api (like special API extensions) and use low level request with full controlling of the whole logic flow.

"},{"location":"tgbotapi/logic/low-level-work-with-bots.html#how-to-handle-updates","title":"How to handle updates","text":"

As was written above, it will require some request:

val updates = bot.execute(GetUpdates())\n

Result type of GetUpdates request is Update. You may find inheritors of this interface in Update kdocs.

As you know, Telegram have the feature named Media Groups. Media groups have several differences with the common messages:

"},{"location":"tgbotapi/logic/media-groups.html#specific-of-media-groups-in-libraries","title":"Specific of media groups in libraries","text":"

Row updates

In tgbotapi there is no any additional handling of media groups by default and in case you will use simple bot.getUpdates, you will get the list of row updates and media groups will be included in this list as separated messages with MediaGroupPartContent. In that case you may use convertWithMediaGroupUpdates to be able to work with media groups as will be described below

In case you are using standard long polling (one of alternatives is telegramBotWithBehaviourAndLongPolling) or webhooks updates will be converted uner the hood and as a result, you will take media groups as a content in one message:

telegramBotWithBehaviourAndLongPolling(\n  \"token\"\n) {\n  onVisualGallery { // it: CommonMessage<MediaGroupContent<VisualMediaGroupPartContent>>\n    it.content // MediaGroupContent<VisualMediaGroupPartContent>\n    it.content.group // List<MediaGroupCollectionContent.PartWrapper<VisualMediaGroupPartContent>>\n    it.content.group.forEach { // it: MediaGroupCollectionContent.PartWrapper<VisualMediaGroupPartContent>\n      it.messageId // source message id for current media group part\n      it.sourceMessage // source message for current media group part\n      it.content // VisualMediaGroupPartContent\n      println(it.content) // will print current content part info\n    }\n  }\n}\n

KDocs:

In two words, in difference with row Telegram Bot API, you will take media groups in one message instead of messages list.

"},{"location":"tgbotapi/logic/types-conversations.html","title":"Types conversations","text":"

One of the most important topics in context of tgbotapi is types conversations. This library is very strong-typed and a lot of things are based on types hierarchy. Lets look into the hierarchy of classes for the Message in 0.35.8:

As you may see, it is a little bit complex and require several tools for types conversation.

"},{"location":"tgbotapi/logic/types-conversations.html#as","title":"As","text":"

as conversations will return new type in case if it is possible. For example, when you got Message, you may use asContentMessage conversation to get message with content:

val message: Message;\nprintln(message.asContentMessage() ?.content)\n

This code will print null in case when message is not ContentMessage, and content when is.

"},{"location":"tgbotapi/logic/types-conversations.html#require","title":"Require","text":"

require works like as, but instead of returning nullable type, it will always return object with required type OR throw ClassCastException:

val message: Message;\nprintln(message.requireContentMessage().content)\n

This code will throw exception when message is not ContentMessage and print content when is.

"},{"location":"tgbotapi/logic/types-conversations.html#when","title":"When","text":"

when extensions will call passed block when type is correct. For example:

val message: Message;\nmessage.whenContentMessage {\n    println(it.content)\n}\n

Code placed above will print content when message is ContentMessage and do nothing when not

In most updates retrieving processes there are two components: UpdatesFiler and its inheritor FlowsUpdatesFilter. It is assumed, that you will do several things in your app to handle updates:

Let\u2019s look how it works with the factory above:

In this case we will print any message from group or user in console\n  messageFlow.onEach {\n    println(it)\n  }.launchIn(someCoroutineScope)\n}\n\n// Step 3 - passing updates to filter\nbot.getUpdates().forEach {\n  filter.asUpdatesReceiver(it)\n}\n

Some example with long polling has been described above. But it is more useful to use some factories for it. In this page we will look for simple variant with TelegramBot#longPolling. So, with this function, your handling of updates will looks like:

val bot = telegramBot(\"TOKEN\")\n\nbot.longPolling {\n  messageFlow.onEach {\n    println(it)\n  }.launchIn(someCoroutineScope)\n}.join()\n

longPolling is a simple way to start getting updates and work with bot:

val bot = telegramBot(token)\nbot.longPolling(\n  textMessages().subscribe(scope) { // here \"scope\" is a CoroutineScope\n    println(it) // will be printed each update from chats with messages\n  }\n)\n

val bot = telegramBot(token)\nbot.startGettingOfUpdatesByLongPolling(\n  {\n    println(it) // will be printed each update from chats with messages\n  }\n)\n

The other way is to use the most basic startGettingOfUpdatesByLongPolling extension:

Due to the fact, that anyway you will get updates in one format (Update objects), some time ago was solved to create one point of updates filters for more usefull way of updates handling

"},{"location":"tgbotapi/updates/updates-filters.html#updatesfilter","title":"UpdatesFilter","text":"

UpdatesFilter currently have two properties:

Anyway, this filter can\u2019t work with updates by itself. For retrieving updates you should pass this filter to some of getting updates functions (long polling or webhooks).

"},{"location":"tgbotapi/updates/updates-filters.html#simpleupdatesfilter","title":"SimpleUpdatesFilter","text":"

SimpleUpdatesFilter is a simple variant of filters. It have a lot of UpdateReceiver properties which can be set up on creating of this object. For example, if you wish to get messages from chats (but not from channels), you can use next snippet:

SimpleUpdatesFilter {\n  println(it)\n}\n
"},{"location":"tgbotapi/updates/updates-filters.html#flowsupdatesfilter","title":"FlowsUpdatesFilter","text":"

A little bit more modern way is to use FlowsUpdatesFilter. It is very powerfull API of Kotlin Coroutines Flows, built-in support of additional extensions for FlowsUpdatesFilter and Flow<...> receivers and opportunity to split one filter for as much receivers as you want. Filter creating example:

val scope = CoroutineScope(Dispatchers.Default)\nflowsUpdatesFilter {\n  messageFlow.onEach {\n    println(it)\n  }.launchIn(scope)\n}\n
"},{"location":"tgbotapi/updates/updates-filters.html#combining-of-flows","title":"Combining of flows","text":"

In cases you need not separate logic for handling of messages from channels and chats there are three ways to combine different flows into one:

"},{"location":"tgbotapi/updates/updates-filters.html#types-filtering","title":"Types filtering","text":"

FlowsUpdatesFilter have a lot of extensions for messages types filtering:

flowsUpdatesFilter {\n  textMessages(scope).onEach {\n    println(it) // will be printed each message from channels and chats both with content only `TextContent`\n  }.launchIn(scope)\n}\n

The same things were created for media groups:

flowsUpdatesFilter {\n  mediaGroupMessages(scope).onEach {\n    println(it) // will be printed each media group messages list from both channels and chats without filtering of content\n  }.launchIn(scope)\n\n  mediaGroupPhotosMessages(scope).onEach {\n    println(it) // will be printed each media group messages list from both channels and chats with PhotoContent only\n  }.launchIn(scope)\n\n  mediaGroupVideosMessages(scope).onEach {\n    println(it) // will be printed each media group messages list from both channels and chats with VideoContent only\n  }.launchIn(scope)\n}\n

Besides, there is an opportunity to avoid separation on media groups and common messages and receive photos and videos content in one flow:

flowsUpdatesFilter {\n  sentMessagesWithMediaGroups(scope).onEach {\n    println(it) // will be printed each message including each separated media group message from both channels and chats without filtering of content\n  }.launchIn(scope)\n\n  photoMessagesWithMediaGroups(scope).onEach {\n    println(it) // will be printed each message including each separated media group message from both channels and chats with PhotoContent only\n  }.launchIn(scope)\n\n  videoMessagesWithMediaGroups(scope).onEach {\n    println(it) // will be printed each message including each separated media group message from both channels and chats with VideoContent only\n  }.launchIn(scope)\n}\n

In telegram bot API there is an opportunity to get updates via webhooks. In this case you will be able to retrieve updates without making additional requests. Most of currently available methods for webhooks are working on ktor server for JVM. Currently, next ways are available for using for webhooks:

"},{"location":"tgbotapi/updates/webhooks.html#setwebhookinfoandstartlistenwebhooks","title":"setWebhookInfoAndStartListenWebhooks","text":"

It is the most common way to set updates webhooks and start listening of them. Example:

val bot = telegramBot(TOKEN)\n\nval filter = flowsUpdatesFilter {\n  // ...\n}\n\nbot.setWebhookInfoAndStartListenWebhooks(\n  8080, // listening port. It is required for cases when your server hidden by some proxy or other system like Heroku\n  CIO, // default ktor server engine. It is recommended to replace it with something like `Netty`. More info about engines here: https://ktor.io/servers/configuration.html\n  SetWebhook(\n    \"address.com/webhook_route\",\n    File(\"/path/to/certificate\").toInputFile(), // certificate file. More info here: https://core.telegram.org/bots/webhooks#a-certificate-where-do-i-get-one-and-how\n    40, // max allowed updates, by default is null\n    filter.allowedUpdates\n  ),\n  {\n    it.printStackTrace() // optional handling of exceptions\n  },\n  \"0.0.0.0\", // listening host which will be used to bind by server\n  \"subroute\", // Optional subroute, if null - will listen root of address\n  WebhookPrivateKeyConfig( // optional config of private key. It will be installed in server to use TLS with custom certificate. More info here: https://core.telegram.org/bots/webhooks#a-certificate-where-do-i-get-one-and-how\n    \"/path/to/keystore.jks\",\n    \"KeystorePassword\",\n    \"Keystore key alias name\",\n    \"KeystoreAliasPassword\"\n  ),\n  scope, // Kotlin coroutine scope for internal transforming of media groups\n  filter.asUpdateReceiver\n)\n

If you will use previous example, ktor server will bind and listen url 0.0.0.0:8080/subroute and telegram will send requests to address address.com/webhook_route with custom certificate. Alternative variant will use the other SetWebhook request variant:

SetWebhook(\n  \"address.com/webhook_route\",\n  \"some_file_bot_id\".toInputFile(),\n  40, // max allowed updates, by default is null\n  filter.allowedUpdates\n)\n

As a result, request SetWebhook will be executed and after this server will start its working and handling of updates.

"},{"location":"tgbotapi/updates/webhooks.html#startlistenwebhooks","title":"startListenWebhooks","text":"

This function is working almost exactly like previous example, but this one will not set up webhook info in telegram:

val filter = flowsUpdatesFilter {\n  // ...\n}\n\nstartListenWebhooks(\n  8080, // listening port. It is required for cases when your server hidden by some proxy or other system like Heroku\n  CIO, // default ktor server engine. It is recommended to replace it with something like `Netty`. More info about engines here: https://ktor.io/servers/configuration.html\n  {\n    it.printStackTrace() // optional handling of exceptions\n  },\n  \"0.0.0.0\", // listening host which will be used to bind by server\n  \"subroute\", // Optional subroute, if null - will listen root of address\n  WebhookPrivateKeyConfig( // optional config of private key. It will be installed in server to use TLS with custom certificate.

The result will be the same as in previous example: server will start its working and handling of updates on 0.0.0.0:8080/subroute. The difference here is that in case if this bot must not answer or send some requiests - it will not be necessary to create bot for receiving of updates.

"},{"location":"tgbotapi/updates/webhooks.html#extensions-includewebhookhandlinginroute-and-includewebhookhandlinginroutewithflows","title":"Extensions includeWebhookHandlingInRoute and includeWebhookHandlingInRouteWithFlows","text":"

For these extensions you will need to start your server manualy. In common case it will look like:
