cd telegram-api-python
pip install -r requirements.txt

Alternatively, you can download the source code from the repository and install the dependencies manually.

Usage

To use telegram-api-python, you will need to create a new bot on Telegram and obtain its API token. You can do this by following the instructions on the Telegram website: https://core.telegram.org/bots#6-botfather

Once you have a bot token, you can create a new instance of the TelegramBot class:

from telegram_api import TelegramBot

bot = TelegramBot('YOUR_BOT_TOKEN')

You can then use the bot object to interact with the Telegram Bot API. For example, to send a message to a chat, you can use the send_message method:

bot.send_message(chat_id='YOUR_CHAT_ID', text='Hello, world!')

You can also send files using the send_document, send_photo, and send_video methods:

bot.send_document(chat_id='YOUR_CHAT_ID', document=open('document.pdf', 'rb'))
bot.send_photo(chat_id='YOUR_CHAT_ID', photo=open('photo.jpg', 'rb'))
bot.send_video(chat_id='YOUR_CHAT_ID', video=open('video.mp4', 'rb'))

To create a poll, you can use the create_poll method:

bot.create_poll(chat_id='YOUR_CHAT_ID', question='What is your favorite color?', options=['Red', 'Green', 'Blue'])

For more information on the available methods, please refer to the telegram_api.py file.
