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: Windows, Linux

Supported CPU architectures: amd64 (linux, windows), 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

import java.io.File;

import it.tdlight.tdlight.Client;
import it.tdlight.tdlight.Init;
import it.tdlight.tdlight.Log;

public class Example {
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        // Initialize TDLight native libraries
        Init.start();

        // Set TDLib log level to 1
        Log.setVerbosityLevel(1);

        // Uncomment this line to print TDLib logs to a file
        // Log.setFilePath("logs" + File.separatorChar + "tdlib.log");
        
        Client client = new Client();
        
        // Initialize the TDLib client
        client.initializeClient();

        // Now you can use the client
    }
}
