Quick start

Documentation

All documentation you need can be found here.

Differences:

  • Library methods use "snake_case_style" instead of "camelCaseStyle" in telegram docs.

  • Message structure use from_user instead of from (from is a reserved word in Python)

Lib Structure

pooling.py calls getUpdates() method in a loop. Can be used instead of webhook. More info about pooling and webhooks are here.
