# Tourmaline

[![Chat on Telegram](https://patrolavia.github.io/telegram-badge/chat.png)](https://t.me/protoncr)

Telegram Bot API library written in Crystal. Meant to be a simple, easy to use, and fast library for writing Telegram bots.

## Installation

Add this to your application's `shard.yml`:

```yaml
dependencies:
  tourmaline:
    github: protoncr/tourmaline
    branch: master
```

## Usage

API documentation is also available [here](https://tourmaline.dev/api_reference/Tourmaline/).

Examples are available in the [examples](https://github.com/protoncr/tourmaline/tree/master/examples) folder.

Just for README purposes though, let's look at the echo bot example:

```crystal
require "tourmaline"

client = Tourmaline::Client.new(ENV["BOT_TOKEN"])

echo_handler = Tourmaline::CommandHandler.new("echo") do |ctx|
  text = ctx.text.to_s
  ctx.reply(text) unless text.empty?
end

client.register(echo_handler)

client.poll
```
