TDLib usage and build examples

This directory contains basic examples of TDLib usage from different programming languages and examples of library building for different platforms. If you are looking for documentation of all available TDLib methods, see the td_api.tl scheme or the automatically generated HTML documentation for a list of all available TDLib methods and classes. Also, take a look at our Getting Started tutorial for a description of basic TDLib concepts.

TDLib can be easily used from almost any programming language on any platform. See a TDLib build instructions generator for detailed instructions on how to build TDLib. Choose your preferred programming language to see examples of usage and a detailed description:

Using TDLib in Python projects

TDLib can be used from Python through the JSON interface.

Convenient Python wrappers already exist for our JSON interface.

If you use Python >= 3.6, take a look at python-telegram. The wrapper uses the full power of asyncio, has a good documentation and has several examples. It can be installed through pip or used in a Docker container. You can also try a fork python-telegram of this library.

If you want to use TDLib with asyncio and Python >= 3.9, take a look at aiotdlib or Pytdbot.

For older Python versions you can use pytdlib. This wrapper contains generator for TDLib API classes and basic interface for interaction with TDLib.

You can also check out example/python/tdjson_example.py, tdlib-python, or Python Wrapper TDLib for some basic examples of TDLib JSON interface integration with Python.

Using TDLib in JavaScript projects

TDLib can be compiled to WebAssembly or asm.js and used in a browser from JavaScript. See tdweb as a convenient wrapper for TDLib in a browser and telegram-react as an example of a TDLib-based Telegram client.

See also Svelte-tdweb-starter - Svelte wrapper for tdweb, and Telegram-Photoframe - a web application that displays your preferred group or channel as Photoframe.

TDLib can be used from Node.js through the JSON interface.

Convenient Node.js wrappers already exist for our JSON interface. For example, take a look at Airgram modern TDLib framework for TypeScript/JavaScript, or at tdl, which provides a convenient, fully-asynchronous interface for interaction with TDLib and contains a bunch of examples.

You can also see TdNode, tglib, node-tdlib, tdlnode, Paper Plane, or node-tlg for other examples of TDLib JSON interface integration with Node.js.

See also the source code of DIBgram - an unofficial Telegram web application which looks like Telegram Desktop.

TDLib can be used also from NativeScript through the JSON interface. See nativescript-tglib as an example of a NativeScript library for building Telegram clients.

Using TDLib in Go projects

TDLib can be used from the Go programming language through the JSON interface and Cgo, and can be linked either statically or dynamically.

Convenient Go wrappers already exist for our JSON interface. For example, take a look at github.com/zelenin/go-tdlib or github.com/Arman92/go-tdlib, which provide a convenient TDLib client, a generator for TDLib API classes and contain many examples.

You can also see github.com/aliforever/go-tdlib or github.com/L11R/go-tdjson for another examples of TDLib JSON interface integration with Go.

Using TDLib in Java projects

TDLib can be used from the Java programming language through native JNI binding.

We provide a generator for JNI bridge methods and Java classes for all TDLib API methods and objects. See example/java for an example of using TDLib from desktop Java along with detailed building and usage instructions. To use TDLib to create Android Java applications, use our prebuilt library for Android.

Using TDLib in Kotlin projects

TDLib can be used from the Kotlin/JVM programming language through same way as in Java.

You can also use ktd library with Kotlin-specific bindings.

See also td-ktx - Kotlin coroutines wrapper for TDLib.

Using TDLib in C# projects

TDLib provides a native .NET interface through C++/CLI and C++/CX. See tdlib-netcore for a SWIG-like binding with automatically generated classes for TDLib API. See example/uwp for an example of building TDLib SDK for the Universal Windows Platform and an example of its usage from C#. See example/csharp for an example of building TDLib with C++/CLI support and an example of TDLib usage from C# on Windows.

If you want to write a cross-platform C# application using .NET Core, see tdsharp. It uses our JSON interface, provides an asynchronous interface for interaction with TDLib, automatically generated classes for TDLib API and has some examples.

Also, see Unigram, which is a full-featured client rewritten from scratch in C# using TDLib SDK for Universal Windows Platform in less than 2 months, egram.tel a cross-platform Telegram client written in C#, .NET Core, ReactiveUI and Avalonia, or telewear - a Telegram client for Samsung watches.

Using TDLib in C++ projects

TDLib has a simple and convenient C++11-interface for sending and receiving requests and can be statically linked to your application.

See example/cpp for an example of TDLib usage from C++. td_example.cpp contains an example of authorization, processing new incoming messages, getting a list of chats and sending a text message.

See also the source code of Fernschreiber and Depecher Telegram apps for Sailfish OS, TELEports a Qt-client for Ubuntu Touch, tdlib-purple - Telegram plugin for Pidgin, or MeeGram - a Telegram client for Nokia N9, TDLib Native Sciter Extension - a Sciter native extension for TDLib's JSON interface, all of which are based on TDLib.

Using TDLib in Swift projects

TDLib can be used from the Swift programming language through the JSON interface and can be linked statically or dynamically.

See example/ios for an example of building TDLib for iOS, watchOS, tvOS, visionOS, and macOS.

See TDLibKit, tdlib-swift, or TDLib-iOS, which provide convenient TDLib clients with automatically generated and fully-documented classes for all TDLib API methods and objects.

See also the source code of Moc - a native and powerful macOS and iPadOS Telegram client, optimized for moderating large communities and personal use.

See example/swift for an example of a macOS Swift application.

See erl-tdlib for an example of TDLib Erlang bindings.

Using TDLib in PHP projects

If you use modern PHP >= 7.4, you can use TDLib via a PHP FFI extension. For example, take a look at ffi-tdlib, or tdlib-php-ffi - FFI-based TDLib wrappers.

See also tdlib-schema - a generator for TDLib API classes.

For older PHP versions you can use TDLib by wrapping its functionality in a PHP extension.

Using TDLib from other programming languages

You can use TDLib from any other programming language using tdbot or TDLib JSON CLI, which provide a command line tool for interaction with TDLIb using the JSON interface through stdin and stdout. You can use this method to use TDLib, for example, from Brainfuck (unfortunately, we haven't seen examples of sending a Telegram message through TDLib on Brainfuck yet).

Alternatively, you can use the TDLib JSON interface directly from your programming language.

Feel free to create an issue, if you have created a valuable TDLib binding or a TDLib client in some programming language and want it to be added to this list of examples.
