## Webhooks vs GetUpdates

Both ways are supported, but I recommend long polling method.

## Usage
2016-05-31 01:09:24 +02:00
Just import add the library to your project using [Maven, Gradly, ... ](https://jitpack.io/#rubenlagus/TelegramBots/v2.3.3.2 ) or download the jar(including all dependencies) from [here ](https://github.com/rubenlagus/TelegramBots/releases/tag/v2.3.3.2 )
2016-01-20 22:18:22 +01:00
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`
2016-05-31 11:13:28 +02:00
Once done, you just need to create a `org.telegram.telegrambots.TelegramBotsApi` and register your bots:
2016-01-20 22:18:22 +01:00
```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();
}
}
}
```
