TARS - Telegram BOT API

TARS is a wrapper of Telegram Bot API with WebHook support using WEBrick as HTTP server.

This is under heavy developpement, more coming soon

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem 'tars'

And then execute:

$ bundle

Or install it yourself as:

$ gem install tars

require 'tars'

TARS.configure do |config|
  config.token = '<YOUR_TOKEN>'
  config.webhook = 'https://protosify.fr/tars'
  config.server = {
    port: 8443,
    path: '/tars'
  }
end

TARS.bot.on 'Hello' do |update|
  message = update.instance_variable_get('@message')
  puts message['chat']['id']
  from = message['from']['first_name']
  TARS::API.reply_to(message['chat']['id'], "Whoop whoop whoop #{from}")
end

TARS.bootstrap

TARS.configure: This configuration block allow you to specify your bot settings. Options are:

• token: This is your bot token, keep it private. To obtain your bot token you should talk to the @botFather and register your bot.

• webhook: The URL that telegram will use to send you update each time your bot receive a message. This URL should point to this bot server where you run TARS. It's should be in HTTPS with a valid SSL certificate. See How to run TARS behind Nginx below for more information about configuring SSL.

• server.port: The port of the local TARS server. This can be anything if you don't want to use TARS behind a reverse proxy. However it should be a valid port handled by Telegram Bot API (Currently 80, 443, 8443)

• server.path: The prefix of the URL to access TARS server. This could be anything

Note: The server Hash can contain any WEBrick params so you can set SSL directly with TARS. See How to run TARS with WEBrick and SSL for more informations.
