4. Run php artisan televel:setup and provide your Bot Token

5. Congrats. Your Bot should be already running. /start it and happy coding!

Commands

Setup Command

The setup command (televel:setup) or (televel:setup botname) allows you to configure a new Telegram bot within your Laravel application. It prompts for the bot name and token and sets up the necessary webhook URL for Telegram updates.

Example usage:

php artisan televel:setup

List Command

The list command (televel:list) lists all configured Telegram bots along with their tokens and webhook URLs.

Example usage:

php artisan televel:list

Remove Command

The remove command (televel:remove) removes a configured Telegram bot from your Laravel application. It deletes the webhook, removes configuration entries, and deletes associated files.

Example usage:

php artisan televel:remove

Reset Command

The reset command (televel:reset) resets the webhook URL for a configured Telegram bot. It deletes the existing webhook, sets a new one with a new token, and updates the configuration.

Example usage:

php artisan televel:reset

Usage

Controller

Once set up, incoming updates from Telegram are handled by the webhook method in your newly generated YourBotController.php file in app/Http/Controllers folder.

Extending Televel class

You can further customize your Telegram bot by extending the Televel class and adding additional methods for handling specific bot functionalities.

<?php

namespace App\Http\Televels;

use Televel\Bot\Televel; // Import Televel if needed

class EchoBotTelevel extends Televel
{
    /**
     * Example method to send a message using the bot.
     *
     * @param int $chatId The chat ID where the message should be sent.
     * @param string $message The message to send.
     * @return object Response from Telegram API.
     */
    public function sendMessage($chatId, $message)
    {
        // Implement your custom logic here to send messages via Telegram API
        // Example: return $this->post('sendMessage', ['chat_id' => $chatId, 'text' => $message]);
    }
}
