nestjs-telegram-bot-api

A NestJS service wrapper for Telegram bots!

Description

Telegram API wrapper for the Telegram Bots API made to work with the Nest framework.

Installation

$ npm install nestjs-telegram

Using the Module

// Inside of your module imports
@Module({
  imports: [TelegramModule.forRoot({
    botKey: 'YourBotApiToken'
  })]
})

// Or async
@Module({
  imports: [
    TelegramModule.forRootAsync({
      useFactory: async (configService: ConfigService) => {
        return { 
          botKey: configService.get('Telegram_API_Key')
        };
      inject: [ConfigService]
    })
  ],
})

In your service class you can inject the service like so and then use it in any function as you would any other service

@Injectable()
export class MyService {

  constructor(private readonly telegram: TelegramService) {}

  testBot(): Observable<TelegramUser> {
    return this.telegram.getMe();
  }
}

Currently, the service only returns Observables as the HttpModule does. If you want to use Promises just call .toPromise() on the function.

Support

If any bugs are found in the API wrapper, please open an issue on GitHub, or a Pull Request if you want to fix it yourself! Please be as explicit as possible and provide a minimum reproducing repository if at all possible, as it helps track down what went wrong.
