MadelineProto Example (now async for huge speed and parallelism!):

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_AffectedHistory = $MadelineProto->messages->deleteHistory(['just_clear' => Bool, 'revoke' => Bool, 'peer' => InputPeer, 'max_id' => int, ]);

Or, if you're into Lua:

messages_AffectedHistory = messages.deleteHistory({just_clear=Bool, revoke=Bool, peer=InputPeer, max_id=int, })
