How to use

MTProto is really hard in implementation, but it's really easy to use. Basically, this lib sends serialized structures to Telegram servers (just like gRPC, but from Telegram LLC.). It looks like this:

func main() {
    client := telegram.NewClient()
    // for each method there is specific struct for serialization (<method_name>Params{})
    result, err := client.MakeRequest(&telegram.GetSomeInfoParams{FromChatId: 12345})
    if err != nil {
        panic(err)
    }

    resp, ok := result.(*SomeResponseObject)
    if !ok {
        panic("Oh no! Wrong type!")
    }
}

Not so hard, huh? But there is even easier way to send request, which is included in TL API specification:

func main() {
    client := telegram.NewClient()
    resp, err := client.GetSomeInfo(12345)
    if err != nil {
        panic(err)
    }

    // resp will be already asserted as described in TL specs of API
    // if _, ok := resp.(*SomeResponseObject); !ok {
    //     panic("No way, we found a bug! Create new issue!")
    // }

    println(resp.InfoAboutSomething)
}

You do not need to think about encryption, key exchange, saving and restoring session, and more routine things. It is already implemented just for you.

Getting started

Simple How-To

Installation is simple. Just do go get:

go get github.com/xelaj/mtproto

After that you can generate source structures of methods and functions if you wish to. To do it, use go generate

go generate github.com/xelaj/mtproto

That's it! You don't need to do anything more!

What is InvokeWithLayer?

It's Telegram specific feature. If you want to create client instance and get information about the current server's configuration, you need to do something like this:

resp, err := client.InvokeWithLayer(apiVersion, &telegram.InitConnectionParams{
    ApiID:          124100,
    DeviceModel:    "Unknown",
    SystemVersion:  "linux/amd64",
    AppVersion:     "0.1.0",
    // just use "en", any other language codes will receive error. See telegram docs for more info.
    SystemLangCode: "en",
    LangCode:       "en",
    // HelpGetConfig() is ACTUAL request, but wrapped in InvokeWithLayer
    Query:          &telegram.HelpGetConfigParams{},
})

Why? We don't know! This method is described in Telegram API docs, any other starting requests will receive error.

How to use phone authorization?

Example here

func AuthByPhone() {
    resp, err := client.AuthSendCode(
        yourPhone,
        appID,
        appHash,
        &telegram.CodeSettings{},
    )
    if err != nil {
        panic(err)
    }

    // You can make any way to enter verification code, like in
    // http requests, or what you like. You just need to call two
    // requests, that's main method.
    fmt.Print("Auth code:")
    code, _ := bufio.NewReader(os.Stdin).ReadString('\n')
    code = strings.Replace(code, "\n", "", -1)

    // this is ALL process of authorization! :)
    fmt.Println(client.AuthSignIn(yourPhone, resp.PhoneCodeHash, code))
}

That's it! You don't need any cycles, code is ready-to-go for async execution. You just need to follow the official Telegram API documentation.

Telegram Deeplinks

Want to deal those freaky tg:// links? See deeplinks package, here is the simplest how-to:

package main

import (
    "fmt"

    "github.com/xelaj/mtproto/telegram/deeplinks"
)

func main() {
    link, _ := deeplinks.Resolve("t.me/xelaj_developers")
    // btw, ResolveParameters is just struct for tg://resolve links, not all links are resolve
    resolve := link.(*deeplinks.ResolveParameters)
    fmt.Printf("Oh! Looks like @%v is the best developers channel in telegram!\n", resolve.Domain)
}

Docs are empty. Why?

There is a pretty huge chunk of documentation. We are ready to describe every method and object, but it requires a lot of work. Although all methods are already described here.

Does this project support Windows?

Technically — yes. In practice — components don't require specific architecture, but we didn't test it yet. If you have any problems running it, just create an issue, we will try to help.

Why Telegram API soooo unusable?

Well... Read this issue about TON source code. Use google translate, this issue will answer to all your questions.
