Open Source Java Telegram Bots

A simple-to-use library to create Telegram Bots in Java.

Bots are third-party applications that run inside Telegram. Users can interact with bots by sending them messages, commands and inline requests. You control your bots using HTTPS requests to Telegram's Bot API. Get customized notifications and news. A bot can act as a smart newspaper, sending you relevant content as soon as it's published. Integrate with other services. A bot can enrich Telegram chats with content from external services. Accept payments from Telegram users. A bot can offer paid services or work as a virtual storefront. Create custom tools. A bot may provide you with alerts, weather forecasts, translations, formatting or other services. Build single- and multiplayer games. A bot can offer rich HTML5 experiences, from simple arcades and puzzles to 3D-shooters and real-time strategy games. Build social services. A bot could connect people looking for conversation partners based on common interests or proximity.

Termin (eng. appointment) is essential in Germany, especially in Berlin. Sometimes it is tough to get a termin in public institutions and this bot is a way to automate termin checks and send Telegram notifications, if free termin was found. The code could be also considered as a template for subsequent development. The principle of bot operation is to refresh a webpage with needed appointments periodically [TERMIN_URL] and to recognize the change on it. E.g., the page always contains the phrase "No free appointments" [NO_TERMIN_FOUND_STRING]. Then some free appointments are added to the system, and the phrase "No free appointments" disappears. There is a new phrase (e.g., "List of free appointments" [TERMIN_FOUND_STRING]) instead of the old one. Bot recognizes the change on the webpage and sends Telegram notifications about free appointments.

In this project we create a Telegram bot that, once added in a group of players, acts as a master for a game of 'Werewolf'. Using Telegram's features as custom keyboards and private chats it recreates adequately the spirit of the real game. The project is written in Java.
