Kotlin Telegram Bot

Build Status Release ktlint

A wrapper for the Telegram Bot API written in Kotlin.

Usage

Creating a bot instance is really simple:

fun main(args: Array<String>) {
    val bot = bot {
        token = "YOUR_API_KEY"
    }
}

Now lets poll telegram API and route all text updates:

fun main(args: Array<String>) {
    val bot = bot {
        token = "YOUR_API_KEY"
        dispatch {
            text { bot, update ->
                val text = update.message?.text ?: "Hello, World!"
                bot.sendMessage(ChatId.fromId(chatId = update.message!!.chat.id), text = text)
            }
        }
    }
    bot.startPolling()
}

Want to route commands?:

fun main(args: Array<String>) {
    val bot = bot {
        token = "YOUR_API_KEY"
        dispatch {
            command("start") {
                val result = bot.sendMessage(chatId = ChatId.fromId(message.chat.id), text = "Hi there!")
                result.fold({
                    // do something here with the response
                },{
                    // do something with the error 
                })
            }
        }
    }
    bot.startPolling()
}

Examples

Take a look at the examples folder.

There are several samples:

  • A simple echo bot
  • A more complex sample with commands, filter, reply markup keyboard and more
  • A sample getting updates through Telegram's webhook using a Netty server
  • An example bot sending polls and listening to poll answers
