[![Hex Docs](https://img.shields.io/badge/hex-docs-ffaff3)](https://hexdocs.pm/telega/)

A [Gleam](https://gleam.run/) library for the Telegram Bot API.

## It provides:

- an inteface to the Telegram Bot HTTP-based APIs `telega/api`
- adapter to use with [wisp](https://github.com/gleam-wisp/wisp)
- a simple session bot implementation

## Installation

```sh
gleam add telega
```

## Simple usage

To start using the library, you must install [wisp](https://github.com/gleam-wisp/wisp) and use the `telega` adapter middleware.

```gleam
import gleam/erlang/process
import gleam/result
import gleam/option.{None, Some}
import mist
import wisp
import telega
import telega/adapters/wisp as telega_wisp
import telega/api as telega_api

fn handle_request(bot, req) {
  use <- telega_wisp.handle_bot(req, bot)
  wisp.not_found()
}

fn echo_handler(ctx) {
  use <- telega.log_context(ctx, "echo")

  case ctx.message.raw.text {
    Some(text) ->
      telega_api.reply(ctx, text)
      |> result.map(fn(_) { Nil })
    None -> Error("No text in message")
  }
}

pub fn main() {
  wisp.configure_logger()

  let assert Ok(bot) =
    telega.new(
      token: "your bot token from @BotFather",
      url: "your bot url",
      webhook_path: "secret path",
      secret_token: None,
    )
    |> telega.handle_all(echo_handler)
    |> telega.init_nil_session

  let assert Ok(_) =
    wisp.mist_handler(handle_request(bot, _), wisp.random_string(64))
    |> mist.new
    |> mist.port(8000)
    |> mist.start_http
    |> result.nil_error

  process.sleep_forever()
}
```

Other examples can be found in the [examples](./examples) directory.

## Development
