Telegram Bitlbee Plugin

This plugin is based on Telegram's official client library tdlib. (This is a proof of concept, not intended for public consumption!)

Dependencies

• tdjson
• jansson
• glib
• bitlbee

Build

• Put your API keys in tgx.h (see: https://core.telegram.org/api/obtaining_api_id).
• Run make.
• Install the generated telegram.so library into Bitlbee's plugins directory.

Usage

1. Run bitlbee from an interactive terminal.
2. Bitlbee IM-account maintenance.

Limitations

• This is a PoC.
• Supports only one client.
• Authentication information is read from stdin.
• Only basic chats are implemented.
• Parsing JSON requests in C is cumbersome.
