TDLight Java
A barebone java wrapper for TDLib (and TDLight)
This wrapper gives you direct access to TDLib API in Java.
Requirements
JVM: Oracle JVM or OpenJDK
Java versions: Java 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15
Operating system: Linux, Windows, macOS
Supported CPU architectures: amd64 (linux, windows, macos), aarch64 (linux)
Required libraries for linux: OpenSSL and zlib
Including TDLight Java in a project
There are two packages of TDLight:
- TDLight, with our optimized fork of TDLib (Reccomended for bots)
- TDLight with official TDLib (Reccomended for GUI clients)
The two packages are compatible, but while TDLight is focused on long term resources usage and speed, TDLib is more focused on stability.
Choose one of the two different TDLight packages and then follow the guide below.
Replace REPLACE_WITH_LATEST_VERSION with the latest version of tdlight, you can find it on the Releases tab on github.

Usage
Simple initialization of a native TDLib client
package it.tdlight.example;
import it.tdlight.common.TelegramClient;
import it.tdlight.tdlight.ClientManager;
import it.tdlight.common.Init;
import it.tdlight.jni.TdApi;
public class Example {
public static void main(String[] args) {
// Initialize TDLight native libraries
Init.start();
// Create a client
TelegramClient client = ClientManager.create();
// Initialize the client
client.initialize(Example::onUpdate, Example::onUpdateError, Example::onError);
// Here you can use the client.

private static void onUpdate(TdApi.Object object) {
TdApi.Update update = (TdApi.Update) object;
System.out.println("Received update: " + update);
}

System.out.println("Received an error from updates:");
exception.printStackTrace();
}
private static void onError(Throwable exception) {
System.out.println("Received an error:");
