# Telegram Bot Java Library
A simple to use library to create Telegram Bots in Java
## Contributions
Feel free to fork this project, work on it and then make a pull request. Most of the times I will accept them if they add something valuable to the code.
Please, **DO NOT PUSH ANY TOKEN OR API KEY**, I will never accept a pull request with that content.
## Webhooks vs GetUpdates
Both ways are supported (but I still didn't tested webhooks).
I recommend using getUpdates methods.
## Usage
Just import add the library to your project using [Maven, Gradly, ...](https://jitpack.io/#rubenlagus/TelegramBots/v1.0) or download the jar(including all dependencies) from [here](https://github.com/rubenlagus/TelegramBots/releases/tag/v1.0)
In order to use Long Polling mode, just create your own bot extending `org.telegram.telegrambots.bots.TelegramLongPollingBot`.
If you like to use Webhook, extend `org.telegram.telegrambots.bots.TelegramWebhookBot`
Once done, you just need to creat a `org.telegram.telegrambots.TelegramBotsApi`and register your bots:
```java
// Example taken from https://github.com/rubenlagus/TelegramBotsExample
public class Main {
public static void main(String[] args) {
TelegramBotsApi telegramBotsApi = new TelegramBotsApi();
try {
telegramBotsApi.registerBot(new ChannelHandlers());
telegramBotsApi.registerBot(new DirectionsHandlers());
telegramBotsApi.registerBot(new RaeHandlers());
telegramBotsApi.registerBot(new WeatherHandlers());
telegramBotsApi.registerBot(new TransifexHandlers());
telegramBotsApi.registerBot(new FilesHandlers());
} catch (TelegramApiException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
}
```
## Example bots
Open them and send them */help* command to get some information about their capabilities:
https://telegram.me/weatherbot
https://telegram.me/directionsbot
https://telegram.me/filesbot
https://telegram.me/TGlanguagesbot
You can see code for those bots at [TelegramBotsExample](https://github.com/rubenlagus/TelegramBotsExample) project.
