## Webhooks vs GetUpdates
2016-05-31 01:09:24 +02:00
Both ways are supported, but I recommend long polling method.
2016-01-20 22:18:22 +01:00
## Usage
2016-09-24 22:37:25 +02:00
Just import add the library to your project with one of these options:
1. Using Maven Central Repository:
```xml
< dependency >
< groupId > org.telegram< / groupId >
< artifactId > telegrambots< / artifactId >
2023-01-02 19:02:45 +01:00
< version > 6.4.0< / version >
2016-09-24 22:37:25 +02:00
< / dependency >
```
2021-01-30 08:24:00 +01:00
2. Using Gradle:
2017-05-12 01:52:47 +02:00
```gradle
2023-01-02 19:02:45 +01:00
implementation 'org.telegram:telegrambots:6.4.0'
2017-05-12 01:52:47 +02:00
```
2023-01-02 19:02:45 +01:00
3. Using Jitpack from [here ](https://jitpack.io/#rubenlagus/TelegramBots/6.4.0 )
4. Download the jar(including all dependencies) from [here ](https://mvnrepository.com/artifact/org.telegram/telegrambots/6.4.0 )
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`
2018-07-08 01:41:21 +02:00
Once done, you just need to create a `org.telegram.telegrambots.meta.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) {
try {
2020-11-07 22:28:47 +01:00
TelegramBotsApi telegramBotsApi = new TelegramBotsApi(DefaultBotSession.class);
2016-01-20 22:18:22 +01:00
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();
}
}
}
```
