A Ruby wrapper that communicates with the Telegram-CLI.
- You need to install the Telegram-CLI version 1.3.0 or higher first.
In order to use the telegram-rb you will need to install the gem (either manually or using Bundler), and require the library in your Ruby application:
$ gem install telegram-rb
or in your Gemfile
:
# latest stable
gem 'telegram-rb', require: 'telegram'
# or track master repo
gem 'telegram-rb', github: 'ssut/telegram-rb', require: 'telegram'
The library uses EventMachine, so the logic is wrapped in EM.run
.
# When using Bundler, let it load all libraries
require 'bundler'
Bundler.require(:default)
# Otherwise, require 'telegram', which will load its dependencies
# require 'telegram'
EM.run do
telegram = Telegram::Client.new do |cfg|
cfg.daemon = '/path/to/tg/bin/telegram-cli'
cfg.key = '/path/to/tg/tg-server.pub'
cfg.config_file = '/path/to/config' # optional, default file will be used if not set
cfg.profile = 'user2' # optional, the profiles must be configured in ~/.telegram-cli/config
cfg.logger = Logger.new(STDOUT) # optional, default logger will be created if not set
end
telegram.connect do
# This block will be executed when initialized.
# See your telegram profile
puts telegram.profile
telegram.contacts.each do |contact|
puts contact
end
telegram.chats.each do |chat|
puts chat
end
# Event listeners
# When you've received a message:
telegram.on[Telegram::EventType::RECEIVE_MESSAGE] = Proc.new do |event|
# `tgmessage` is TelegramMessage instance
puts event.tgmessage
end
# When you've sent a message:
telegram.on[Telegram::EventType::SEND_MESSAGE] = Proc.new do |event|
puts event
end
end
end
