### MadelineProto Example ([now async for huge speed and parallelism!](https://docs.madelineproto.xyz/docs/ASYNC.html)):


```php
if (!file_exists('madeline.php')) {
    copy('https://phar.madelineproto.xyz/madeline.php', 'madeline.php');
}
include 'madeline.php';

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

$messages.Messages = $MadelineProto->messages->getUnreadMentions(['peer' => InputPeer, 'offset_id' => int, 'add_offset' => int, 'limit' => int, 'max_id' => int, 'min_id' => int, ]);
```

```
