### 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->search(['peer' => InputPeer, 'q' => 'string', 'filter' => MessagesFilter, 'min_date' => int, 'max_date' => int, 'offset' => int, 'max_id' => int, 'limit' => int, ]);
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Or, if you're into Lua:

|
|
|
```lua

messages.Messages = messages.search({peer=InputPeer, q='string', filter=MessagesFilter, min_date=int, max_date=int, offset=int, max_id=int, limit=int, })
