Requirements

  • PHP >=8.0
  • Telegram Bot Token - Talk to @BotFather and generate one.
  • Laravel >=9 (Optional)

Obtaining Telegram Bot Token

  1. Open the Telegram app and message @BotFather.
  2. Follow the instructions to create a new bot.
  3. After creating the bot, the "BotFather" bot will give you a bot token. Keep this token safe, as you will need it to use the Telegram Bot API.
tip

Your bot token is its unique identifier – store it in a secure place, and avoid sharing with anyone or publishing your bot token anywhere. Everyone who has your token will have full control over your bot.

Laravel Setup

Telegram Bot SDK will self-register its service provider and facade in Laravel.
