    copy('https://phar.madelineproto.xyz/madeline.php', 'madeline.php');
}
include 'madeline.php';

$MadelineProto = new \danog\MadelineProto\API('session.madeline');
$MadelineProto->start();

$HttpWait = $MadelineProto->http_wait(['max_delay' => int, 'wait_after' => int, 'max_wait' => int, ]);
```

### [PWRTelegram HTTP API](https://pwrtelegram.xyz) example (NOT FOR MadelineProto):

POST/GET to `https://api.pwrtelegram.xyz/botTOKEN/madeline`

Parameters:

* method - http_wait
* params - `{"max_delay": int, "wait_after": int, "max_wait": int, }`



### As a user:

Parameters:

max_delay - Json encoded int

wait_after - Json encoded int

max_wait - Json encoded int
