Silex Service Provider for the Telegram SDK

Telegram PHP SDK Silex Service Provider

, _(*1)

Overview

A Silex service provider to integrate the Telegram PHP SDK, _(*2)

Requirements

• Silex 2+
• Telegram Bot API PHP SDK

Installation

composer require ahoulgrave/silex-tg-service-provider dev-master

Usage

<?php
use Telegram\Bot\Silex\Provider\TelegramServiceProvider;

$app = new Silex\Application();

$app->register(new TelegramServiceProvider(), [
    'telegram.bot_api' => '<Your bot api token>',
    'telegram.commands' => [
        \My\Telegram\Command\AwesomeCommand::class,
    ]
]);

Webhook

If your are using a webhook to fetch the updates, you can register the Controller Provider to handle the request for you., _(*3)

$app->mount('/telegram-web-hook', new TelegramControllerProvider());

Your webhook should be https://youdomain.com/telegram-web-hook/ (Note the trailing slash), _(*4)

Now, when telegram sends you the updates, the controller will look for the right command and handle it., _(*5)

Commands

You can extend the Telegram\Bot\Silex\ApplicationAwareCommand class, so your command can access the container., _(*6)

For example:, _(*7)

<?php
namespace My\Telegram\Command;

use Telegram\Bot\Silex\ApplicationAwareCommand;

class AwesomeCommand extends ApplicationAwareCommand
{
    /**
     * @inheritdoc
     */
    protected $name = 'hello';

    /**
     * @inheritdoc
     */
    public function handle($arguments)
    {
        $update = $this->getUpdate();
        $app = $this->getApplication();
        $app['monolog']->info($update->getMessage()->getText());
        $this->replyWithMessage(['text' => 'Hi there!']);
    }
}
