# TelegramBotAPI
|
|
|
|
[ ](https://bintray.com/insanusmokrassar/StandardRepository/TelegramBotAPI/_latestVersion)
|
|
[](https://jenkins.insanusmokrassar.com/job/TelegramBotAPI_master__publishing/)
|
|
|
|
## What is it?
|
|
|
|
Library for Object-Oriented and type-safe work with Telegram Bot API. Most part of some specific solves or unuseful
|
|
moments are describing by official [Telegram Bot API](https://core.telegram.org/bots/api).
|
|
|
|
## Compatibility
|
|
|
|
This version compatible with [31th of December 2019 update of TelegramBotAPI (version 4.5)](https://core.telegram.org/bots/api#december-31-2019).
|
|
There is Telegram Passport API exception of implemented functionality, which was presented in
|
|
[August 2018 update of TelegramBotAPI](https://core.telegram.org/bots/api#august-27-2018) update. It will be implemented
|
|
as soon as possible. All APIs that are not included are presented
|
|
[wiki](https://github.com/InsanusMokrassar/TelegramBotAPI/wiki/Not-included-API).
|
|
|
|
## How to implement library?
|
|
|
|
Common ways to implement this library are presented here. In some cases it will require additional steps
|
|
like inserting of additional libraries (like `kotlin stdlib`). In the examples will be used variable
|
|
`telegrambotapi.version`, which must be set up by developer. Available versions are presented on
|
|
[bintray](https://bintray.com/insanusmokrassar/StandardRepository/TelegramBotAPI), next version is last published:
|
|
|
|
[ ](https://bintray.com/insanusmokrassar/StandardRepository/TelegramBotAPI/_latestVersion)
|
|
|
|
Currently, last versions of library are not included into the Maven repository (for the reason difficult in publishing
|
|
of signed artifacts in Bintray). You can:
|
|
|
|
* Use earlier version (available version you can find
|
|
[here](https://mvnrepository.com/artifact/com.github.insanusmokrassar/TelegramBotAPI))
|
|
* Add `jCenter` repository in build config
|
|
|
|
### Maven
|
|
|
|
To use last versions you will need to add several lines in repositories block of your pom.xml:
|
|
|
|
```xml
|
|
<repository>
|
|
<snapshots>
|
|
<enabled>false</enabled>
|
|
</snapshots>
|
|
<id>central</id>
|
|
<name>bintray</name>
|
|
<url>http://jcenter.bintray.com</url>
|
|
</repository>
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Dependency config presented here:
|
|
|
|
```xml
|
|
<dependency>
|
|
<groupId>com.github.insanusmokrassar</groupId>
|
|
<artifactId>TelegramBotAPI</artifactId>
|
|
<version>${telegrambotapi.version}</version>
|
|
</dependency>
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Gradle
|
|
|
|
To use last versions you will need to add one line in repositories block of your build.gradle:
|
|
|
|
```groovy
|
|
jcenter()
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
And add next line to your dependencies block:
|
|
|
|
```groovy
|
|
implementation "com.github.insanusmokrassar:TelegramBotAPI:$telegrambotapi_version"
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
or for old gradle:
|
|
|
|
```groovy
|
|
compile "com.github.insanusmokrassar:TelegramBotAPI:$telegrambotapi_version"
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## How to work with library?
|
|
|
|
For now, this library have no some API god-object. Instead of this, this library has several
|
|
important objects:
|
|
|
|
* [RequestsExecutor](https://github.com/InsanusMokrassar/TelegramBotAPI/blob/master/src/commonMain/kotlin/com/github/insanusmokrassar/TelegramBotAPI/bot/RequestsExecutor.kt)
|
|
* [Requests](https://github.com/InsanusMokrassar/TelegramBotAPI/blob/master/src/commonMain/kotlin/com/github/insanusmokrassar/TelegramBotAPI/requests)
|
|
* [Types](https://github.com/InsanusMokrassar/TelegramBotAPI/blob/master/src/commonMain/kotlin/com/github/insanusmokrassar/TelegramBotAPI/types)
|
|
|
|
### Types
|
|
|
|
Types declare different objects representation. For example, `Chat` for now represented as
|
|
interface and has several realisations:
|
|
|
|
* PrivateChat
|
|
* GroupChat
|
|
* SupergroupChat
|
|
* ChannelChat
|
|
|
|
Instead of common garbage with all information as in original [Chat](https://core.telegram.org/bots/api#chat),
|
|
here it was separated for more obvious difference between chats types and their possible content.
|
|
|
|
The same principle work with a lot of others things in this Telegram bot API.
|
|
|
|
### Requests
|
|
|
|
Requests usually are very simple objects, but some of them are using their own
|
|
build factories. For example, the next code show, how to get information about bot:
|
|
|
|
```kotlin
|
|
val requestsExecutor: RequestsExecutor = ...
|
|
requestsExecutor.execute(GetMe())
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
The result type of [GetMe](https://github.com/InsanusMokrassar/TelegramBotAPI/blob/master/src/commonMain/kotlin/com/github/insanusmokrassar/TelegramBotAPI/requests/GetMe.kt) request is
|
|
[User](https://github.com/InsanusMokrassar/TelegramBotAPI/blob/master/src/commonMain/kotlin/com/github/insanusmokrassar/TelegramBotAPI/types/User.kt). In fact, in this result must contain
|
|
`isBot` equal to `true` always.
|
|
|
|
|
|
### RequestsExecutor
|
|
|
|
It is base object which can be used to execute requests in API. For now by default included Ktor
|
|
realisation of `RequestsExecutor`, but it is possible, that in future it will be extracted in separated
|
|
project. How to create `RequestsExecutor`:
|
|
|
|
```kotlin
|
|
val requestsExecutor = KtorRequestsExecutor(TOKEN)
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Here `KtorRequestsExecutor` - default realisation with Ktor. `TOKEN` is just a token of bot which was retrieved
|
|
according to [instruction](https://core.telegram.org/bots#3-how-do-i-create-a-bot).
|
|
|
|
Besides, for correct usage of this, you must implement in your project both one of engines for client and server
|
|
Ktor libraries:
|
|
|
|
```groovy
|
|
dependencies {
|
|
// ...
|
|
implementation "io.ktor:ktor-server-cio:$ktor_version"
|
|
implementation "io.ktor:ktor-client-okhttp:$ktor_version"
|
|
// ...
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
It is able to avoid using of `server` dependency in case if will not be used `Webhook`s. In this case,
|
|
dependencies list will be simplify:
|
|
|
|
```groovy
|
|
dependencies {
|
|
// ...
|
|
implementation "io.ktor:ktor-client-okhttp:$ktor_version"
|
|
// ...
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Here was used `okhttp` realisation of client, but there are several others engines for Ktor. More information
|
|
available on ktor.io site for [client](https://ktor.io/clients/http-client/engines.html) and [server](https://ktor.io/quickstart/artifacts.html)
|
|
engines.
|
|
|
|
## Getting updates
|
|
|
|
In this library currently realised two ways to get updates from telegram:
|
|
|
|
* Polling - in this case bot will request updates from time to time (you can set up delay between requests)
|
|
* Webhook via reverse proxy or something like this
|
|
|
|
### Updates filters
|
|
|
|
Currently webhook method contains `UpdatesFilter` as necessary argument for getting updates.
|
|
`UpdatesFilter` will sort updates and throw their into different callbacks. Currently supporting
|
|
separate getting updates for media groups - they are accumulating with debounce in one second
|
|
(for being sure that all objects of media group was received).
|
|
|
|
Updates polling also support `UpdatesFilter` but you must not use it and can get updates directly
|
|
in `UpdateReceiver`, which you will provide to `startGettingOfUpdates` method
|
|
|
|
### Webhook set up
|
|
|
|
If you wish to use webhook method, you will need:
|
|
|
|
* White IP - your IP address or host, which available for calling. [TelegramBotAPI](https://core.telegram.org/bots/api#setwebhook)
|
|
recommend to use some unique address for each bot which you are using
|
|
* SSL certificate. Usually you can obtain the certificate using your domain provider, [Let'sEncrypt](https://letsencrypt.org/) or [create it](https://core.telegram.org/bots/self-signed)
|
|
* Nginx or something like this
|
|
|
|
Template for Nginx server config you can find in [this gist](https://gist.github.com/InsanusMokrassar/fcc6e09cebd07e46e8f0fdec234750c4#file-nginxssl-conf).
|
|
|
|
For webhook you can provide `File` with public part of certificate, `URL` where bot will be available and inner `PORT` which
|
|
will be used to start receiving of updates. Actually, you can skip passing of `File` when you have something like
|
|
nginx for proxy forwarding.
|
|
|
|
In case of using `nginx` with reverse-proxy config, setting up of Webhook will look like:
|
|
|
|
```kotlin
|
|
requestsExecutor.setWebhook(
|
|
WEBHOOK_URL,
|
|
INTERNAL_PORT,
|
|
filter,
|
|
ENGINE_FACTORY
|
|
)
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Here:
|
|
|
|
* `WEBHOOK_URL` - the url which will be used by Telegram system to send updates
|
|
* `INTERNAL_PORT` - the port which will be used in bot for listening of updates
|
|
* `filter` - instance of [UpdatesFilter](https://github.com/InsanusMokrassar/TelegramBotAPI/blob/master/src/commonMain/kotlin/com/github/insanusmokrassar/TelegramBotAPI/updateshandlers/UpdatesFilter.kt),
|
|
which will be used to filter incoming updates
|
|
* `ENGINE_FACTORY` - used factory name, for example, `CIO` in case of usage `io.ktor:ktor-server-cio` as server engine
|
