README

Asynchronous PHP Telegram Bot Framework built on top of ReactPHP

NOTE: This is a fork of the original repository

The original maintainer does not seem to actively contribute to the project anymore. If my merge requests get accepted, I'll close this down and deprecate it in favour of the original library.

Features

• Long polling support (no webserver required)
• Middleware chain for requests
• Conversations and sessions (no database required)
• Based on ReactPHP asynchronous non-blocking I/O model
• Scheduled functions/timers provided by ReactPHP
• Bulk message sending (no more 429 annoying errors)

Installation

composer require kix/zanzara

Quickstart

Create a file named bot.php and paste the following code:

<?php

use Zanzara\Zanzara;
use Zanzara\Context;

require __DIR__ . '/vendor/autoload.php';

$bot = new Zanzara("YOUR-BOT-TOKEN");

$bot->onCommand('start', function (Context $ctx) {
    $ctx->sendMessage('Hello');
});

$bot->run();

Then run it from command line as follows:

$ php bot.php

Enjoy your bot!
