Sending Requests
The framework creates a 1:1 mapping of the methods Telegram provides that are directly accessible from the main instance. The only difference is in the parameters that telegram marks as Optional: these are specifiable via the last parameter (present in almost all methods) as an associative array.
For example:
use SergiX44\Nutgram\Nutgram;
use SergiX44\Nutgram\Telegram\Types\Message\Message;
$bot = new Nutgram($_ENV['TOKEN']);
// Send a message to a specific user
/** @var Message $message */
$message = $bot->sendMessage('Hi!', ['chat_id' => 111222333]);
// Send a message to a channel
/** @var Message $message */
$message = $bot->sendMessage('Hi channel!', ['chat_id' => '@mychannel']);
Uploading media
For any method that require an InputFile
, you can pass a resource file
descriptor to the right method, and the framework will take care of how uploading it, like in the following example.
If you already have the Telegram file_id
, you can simply specify it.
use SergiX44\Nutgram\Nutgram;
use SergiX44\Nutgram\Telegram\Types\Message\Message;
$bot = new Nutgram($_ENV['TOKEN']);
// Send a photo to a specific user ***********************************************
$photo = fopen('image.png', 'r+'); // open the file
/** @var Message $message */
$message = $bot->sendPhoto($photo, ['chat_id' => 111222333]); // pass the resource
fclose($photo); // close the file
// Send a video to a specific user ***********************************************
$video = fopen('funnyvideo.mp4', 'r+'); // open the file
/** @var Message $message */
$message = $bot->sendPhoto($video, ['chat_id' => 111222333]);
fclose($video); // close the file
// send a sticker via file_id ****************************************************
$fileId = $bot->message()->sticker->file_id;
/** @var Message $message */
$message = $bot->sendSticker($fileId, ['chat_id' => 111222333]);
Downloading media
As opposed to uploading, there are some additional methods available that allow you to download files:
use SergiX44\Nutgram\Nutgram;
use SergiX44\Nutgram\Telegram\Types\Media\File;
$bot = new Nutgram($_ENV['TOKEN']);
$fileId = $bot->message()->sticker->file_id;
// get the File object
/** @var File $message */
$file = $bot->getFile($fileId);
$bot->downloadFile($file, 'path/to/file');
// OR, via helper method
$bot->getFile($fileId)->save('file/or/directory');
Formatting options
The framework give you some helper constants to format your text messages:
use SergiX44\Nutgram\Nutgram;
use SergiX44\Nutgram\Telegram\Attributes\ParseMode;
use SergiX44\Nutgram\Telegram\Types\Message\Message;
$bot = new Nutgram($_ENV['TOKEN']);
// Send a message formatting in markdown
/** @var Message $message */
$message = $bot->sendMessage('*Hi!*', [
'chat_id' => 111222333,
'parse_mode' => ParseMode::MARKDOWN,
]);
// Send a message formatting in html
/** @var Message $message */
$message = $bot->sendMessage('<i>Hi!</i>', [
'chat_id' => 111222333,
'parse_mode' => ParseMode::HTML,
]);
