README

Telegram adapter for the laravel-bootdesk multi-platform messaging framework.

Install

composer require bootdesk/chat-sdk-adapter-telegram

Requires a PSR-18 HTTP client (guzzlehttp/guzzle, symfony/http-client, etc.) and a PSR-17 factory (nyholm/psr7 bundled).

Configuration

Variable	Description	Example
`bot_token`	Telegram Bot Token (from @BotFather)	`123456:ABC-DEF...`
`http_client`	PSR-18 HTTP client instance	`new GuzzleHttp\Client`
`secret_token`	Webhook secret token	`my-secret...`

use BootDesk\ChatSDK\Telegram\TelegramAdapter;

$adapter = new TelegramAdapter(
    botToken: env('TELEGRAM_BOT_TOKEN'),
    httpClient: new \GuzzleHttp\Client,
    secretToken: env('TELEGRAM_SECRET_TOKEN'),
);

Laravel

The ChatServiceProvider auto-binds Psr\Http\Client\ClientInterface to GuzzleHttp\Client. Add to config/chat.php:

'telegram' => [
    'bot_token'    => env('TELEGRAM_BOT_TOKEN'),
    'secret_token' => env('TELEGRAM_SECRET_TOKEN'),
],

Quick Example

// Post a message to a chat
$adapter->postMessage('telegram:123456789', 'Hello from laravel-bootdesk!');

// Post in a topic forum
$adapter->postMessage('telegram:-100123456789:42', 'Topic message');

Thread ID Format

Format	Description
`telegram:{chatId}`	Direct message or group chat
`telegram:{chatId}:{messageThreadId}`	Topic within a forum

Webhook

Telegram sends updates via webhook. Verify requests using the secret_token parameter set during webhook registration.

Custom Keyboards

Pass keyboard value objects via PostableMessage::$metadata['reply_markup']:

use BootDesk\ChatSDK\Core\PostableMessage;
use BootDesk\ChatSDK\Telegram\Keyboard\KeyboardButton;
use BootDesk\ChatSDK\Telegram\Keyboard\ReplyKeyboardMarkup;

// Custom reply keyboard with location request
$thread->post(new PostableMessage(
    content: 'Choose an option:',
    metadata: [
        'reply_markup' => new ReplyKeyboardMarkup(
            keyboard: [
                [new KeyboardButton('Help')],
                [new KeyboardButton('Share Location', requestLocation: true)],
                [new KeyboardButton('Share Contact', requestContact: true)],
            ],
            resizeKeyboard: true,
            oneTimeKeyboard: true,
        ),
    ],
));

Types

Value object	Telegram API equivalent
`ReplyKeyboardMarkup`	Custom reply keyboard
`InlineKeyboardMarkup`	Inline keyboard (standalone)
`ForceReply`	Force reply
`ReplyKeyboardRemove`	Remove custom keyboard
`KeyboardButton`	text / request_location / request_contact / request_poll / web_app
`InlineKeyboardButton`	text / callback_data / url / web_app
`WebAppInfo`	url

Metadata reply_markup takes precedence over the card-generated inline keyboard. Raw arrays also accepted for power users.

Reply-to-Message

$thread->post(new PostableMessage(
    content: 'Reply to this',
    replyToMessageId: '42',
));
