  36 1,322 6.2 Ruby

  Ruby wrapper for Telegram's Bot API

Yep :)

You first create a bot, then join a chat with that bot, then control the bot via the http api

api: https://core.telegram.org/bots/api

  Modern Telegram Bot Framework for Node.js (by telegraf)

  

Honestly I found their API one of the worst ones I've ever used. The documentation is lacking, and they have some unintuitive quirks like posting messages with http GET requests and randomly concatenating strings in params (botNAMEOFBOT anyone?).

I didn't enjoy using it without a third party library [1].

Sending a single message is easy, but using the rest of telegram's features is "meh" when using pure API calls.

If you want to see a well designed API, you should take a look at FTX or Stripe. I love those two :)

  1 6 4.5 Rust

  PsychonautWiki internal event notification bot for Telegram written in Rust (MediaWiki, Github)

  

One example is a bot I wrote for PsychonautWiki that posts changes from Jira, MediaWiki via UDP and Paypal via IPN: https://github.com/psychonautwiki/eyeOfProvidence.

Another one I wrote recently is a bot that I ported to Telegram from its original IRC incarnation: https://github.com/19h/minuteman-bot.

A bot I wrote that, when seeing a voice message, transcribes it using AssemblyAI and finally uses OpenAI GPT3 to summarise it: https://github.com/19h/transcriptbot. (Needs an api key for both)

Finally, a bot that monitors a tcp / http endpoint configured via a yaml file, can be configured to send alerts via SMS (via AWS SNS), Slack or Telegram: https://github.com/19h/zuse.

There's a bunch more but most of them are very specific to my needs.
