# MadelineProto, a PHP MTProto telegram client

Created by <a href="https://daniil.it" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Daniil Gentili</a>

Do join the official channel, [@MadelineProto](https://t.me/MadelineProto) and the [support groups](https://t.me/pwrtelegramgroup)!

<a href="https://telegram.org/apps" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Approved by Telegram!</a>

## What's this?

This library can be used to easily interact with Telegram **without** the bot API, just like the official apps.

It can login with a phone number (MTProto API), or with a bot token (MTProto API, **no bot API involved!**).

[It is now fully async](https://docs.madelineproto.xyz/docs/ASYNC.html)!

## Getting started ([now fully async!](https://docs.madelineproto.xyz/docs/ASYNC.html))

```php
<?php

if (!file_exists('madeline.php')) {
    copy('https://phar.madelineproto.xyz/madeline.php', 'madeline.php');
}
include 'madeline.php';

$MadelineProto = new \danog\MadelineProto\API('session.madeline');
$MadelineProto->async(true);
$MadelineProto->loop(function () use ($MadelineProto) {
    yield $MadelineProto->start();

    $me = yield $MadelineProto->get_self();

    $MadelineProto->logger($me);

    if (!$me['bot']) {
        yield $MadelineProto->messages->sendMessage(['peer' => '@danogentili', 'message' => "Hi!\nThanks for creating MadelineProto! <3"]);
        yield $MadelineProto->channels->joinChannel(['channel' => '@MadelineProto']);

        try {
            yield $MadelineProto->messages->importChatInvite(['hash' => 'https://t.me/joinchat/Bgrajz6K-aJKu0IpGsLpBg']);
        } catch (\danog\MadelineProto\RPCErrorException $e) {
            $MadelineProto->logger($e);
        }

        yield $MadelineProto->messages->sendMessage(['peer' => 'https://t.me/joinchat/Bgrajz6K-aJKu0IpGsLpBg', 'message' => 'Testing MadelineProto!']);
    }
    yield $MadelineProto->echo('OK, done!');
});
```
