Expand description

Make cool Telegram bots with Rust easily. Here is a simple echo bot:

use tbot::prelude::*;

#[tokio::main]
async fn main() {
    let mut bot = tbot::from_env!("BOT_TOKEN").event_loop();

    bot.text(|context| async move {
        let echo = &context.text.value;
        let call_result = context.send_message(echo).call().await;

        if let Err(err) = call_result {
            dbg!(err);
        }
    });

    bot.polling().start().await.unwrap();
}

There are many examples to see tbot in action. If you want to see real-world use of tbot, check out this list.

If you’re a newcomer, we recommend you go through the tutorial first. We also have several How-to guides to help you use tbot. You can always refer to our API docs on docs.rs (also, docs for master are available here).

If you have a question, ask it in our group on Telegram. If you find a bug, file an issue on either our GitLab or GitHub repository.
