NativeTgCalls

Welcome to NativeTgCalls, an innovative open-source project. NativeTgCalls represents the next evolution in Telegram calling, building on the foundation laid by PyTgCalls.

Powerful	Simple	Light
Built from scratch in C++ using Boost and libwebrtc	Simple Python, GO and C Bindings	We removed anything that could burden the library, including NodeJS

...and more, without even rewriting your code that uses PyTgCalls!

Overview

NativeTgCalls, often referred to as NTgCalls, is an exciting open-source venture. This project redefines the Telegram calling experience and introduces innovative features while preserving the legacy of PyTgCalls.

Key Features

Experimentation and Customization

NativeTgCalls is a playground for experimentation. We understand the importance of customization for developers, empowering you to tailor your Telegram calling solutions to your precise requirements.

Advancing with PyTgCalls

Building upon the success of PyTgCalls, NativeTgCalls provides a natural progression for developers familiar with its predecessor. This evolution streamlines the development process and extends the capabilities of Telegram calling.

Importantly, PyTgCalls will seamlessly integrate the new core (NTgCalls) to ensure backward compatibility.

Compiling

Python Bindings

NativeTgCalls offers Py Bindings, enabling seamless integration with Python. Follow these steps to compile NativeTgCalls with Python Bindings:

1. Ensure you are in the root directory of the NativeTgCalls project.

2. Run the following command to install the Py Bindings:

   python3 setup.py install
   

C Bindings

For developers looking to use NativeTgCalls with C and C++, we provide C Bindings. Follow these steps to compile NativeTgCalls with C Bindings:

1. Ensure you are in the root directory of the NativeTgCalls project.
2. Run the following command to generate the shared libs:

   python3 setup.py build_shared
   

3. Upon successful execution, a shared library will be generated in the "shared-output" directory. You can now use this library to develop applications with NativeTgCalls.
4. To include the necessary headers in your C/C++ projects, you will find the "include" folder in the root of the project. Utilize this folder for including the required header files.
