Awesome Bot

Documentation

A framework to build your own Telegram bots easily. More information here. Official API here.

This framework is based on telegram-bot library to communicate with the API.

Usage

This framework is available in crates.io. Just add this to your Cargo.toml dependencies:

[dependencies]
awesome-bot = "0.1.0"

Example

Here is a simple example (download from examples/simple.rs).

extern crate awesome_bot;

use awesome_bot::*;

fn echohandler(bot: &AwesomeBot, msg: &Message, _: String, args: Vec<String>) {
    // We can access safely because the pattern match have that argument mandatory
    let toecho = &args[1];
    let phrase = format!("Echoed: {}", toecho);
    // Send the text in a beauty way :)
    let sent = bot.answer(msg).text(&phrase).end();
    println!("{:?}", sent);
}

fn main() {
    // Create the Awesome Bot (You need TELEGRAM_BOT_TOKEN environment with the token)
    let mut bot = AwesomeBot::from_env("TELEGRAM_BOT_TOKEN");
    // Add a command, this will add the routing to that function.
    bot.command("echo (.+)", echohandler);

    // Start the bot with getUpdates
    let res = bot.simple_start();
    if let Err(e) = res {
        println!("An error occurred: {}", e);
    }
}

In the examples folder there is more code:

• examples/simple.rs: An echo example, really simple.
• examples/complete.rs: An example that have all (I think, probably not all, but almost all) features of awesome-bot, it's a big example ;-)

Note: To execute examples/complete.rs with all the features, you will need to add some test files that the bot will send, this files shall be: files/test.{jpg, mp3, mp4, pdf, webp} for image, audio/voice, video, document and sticker
