# Telegram Bots
Create and control [Telegram bots](https://core.telegram.org/bots) easily
using the new [Telegram API](https://core.telegram.org/bots/api).
telegram-api is in beta, your feedback is appreciated, please [fill an issue](https://github.com/mdibaiee/node-telegram-api/issues)
for any bugs you find or any suggestions you have.
```
npm install telegram-api
```
The code is well documented. I'm trying to integrate JSDoc / ESDoc into our repository for an easy to access documentation.
# Example
[@JavaScriptBot](https://telegram.me/JavaScriptBot) runs on `demo.js`, you can test it.
```javascript
var Bot = require('telegram-api');
// only require the message types you need, more coming soon!
var Message = require('telegram-api/types/Message');
var Question = require('telegram-api/types/Question');
var bot = new Bot({
token: 'YOUR_KEY'
});
bot.start().catch(err => {
console.error(err, '\n', err.stack);
});
// polling
bot.on('update', update => {
console.log('Polled\n', update);
});
const question = new Question({
text: 'How should I greet you?',
answers: [['Hey'], ['Hello, Sir'], ['Yo bro']]
});
bot.get(/Hi\sBot/, message => {
const id = message.chat.id;
question.to(id).reply(message.message_id);
bot.send(question).then(answer => {
const msg = new Message().to(id).text('Your answer: ' + answer.text);
bot.send(msg);
}, () => {
const msg = new Message().to(id).text('Invalid answer');
bot.send(msg);
});
});
const hello = new Message().text('Hello');
bot.command('start', message => {
bot.send(hello.to(message.chat.id));
});
const test = new Message().text('Test Command');
bot.command('test', message => {
bot.send(test.to(message.chat.id));
});
```
This will result in:
