TDLight Java

Complete Bot and Userbot Telegram library written in Java, based on TDLib

Maven package Release JProfiler

💻 Supported platforms

Java versions: from Java 17 to Java 21+ (Java 8 to 16 is supported if you use the following dependency classifier: jdk8)

Operating systems: Linux, Windows, MacOS

CPU architectures:

  • amd64 (Linux, Windows, MacOS)
  • armhf (Linux)
  • arm64 (Linux, MacOS)
  • ppc64el (Linux)
  • riscv64 (linux)

📚 Required libraries

Install OpenSSL on macOS

You must install openssl@3 using the brew package manager , then link openssl to /usr/local/opt/openssl

If you don't know how to do this, type the following commands in your terminal:

brew install openssl@3
ln -sf /usr/local/Cellar/openssl@3/3.0.0 /usr/local/opt/openssl

📚 How to use the library

Setting up the library using Maven

If you are using Maven, edit your pom.xml file as below:

<project>
	<repositories>

		<!-- Add the following repository -->
		<repository>
			<id>mchv</id>
			<name>MCHV Apache Maven Packages</name>
			<url>https://mvn.mchv.eu/repository/mchv/</url>
		</repository>

	</repositories>

	<dependencyManagement>
		<dependencies>
			
			<!-- Add the following dependency -->
			<dependency>
				<groupId>it.tdlight</groupId>
				<artifactId>tdlight-java-bom</artifactId>
				<version>VERSION</version>
				<type>pom</type>
				<scope>import</scope>
			</dependency>
		</dependencies>
	</dependencyManagement>

	<dependencies>

		<!-- Add the following dependencies -->
		<dependency>
			<groupId>it.tdlight</groupId>
			<artifactId>tdlight-java</artifactId>
			<!-- Java 8 is supported if you use the following dependency classifier: <classifier>jdk8</classifier> -->
			<!-- don't specify the version here -->
		</dependency>
		<!-- Example linux amd64 (GNU GCC) ssl1 natives -->
		<dependency>
			<groupId>it.tdlight</groupId>
			<artifactId>tdlight-natives</artifactId>
			<classifier>linux_amd64_gnu_ssl1</classifier>
			<!-- don't specify the version here -->
		</dependency>
		<!-- Example windows amd64 natives -->
		<dependency>
			<groupId>it.tdlight</groupId>
			<artifactId>tdlight-natives</artifactId>
			<classifier>windows_amd64</classifier>
			<!-- don't specify the version here -->
		</dependency>
		<!-- ... -->
		<!-- Include other native classifiers, for example linux_amd64_ssl3, macos_amd64, ... -->

	</dependencies>
</project>

Replace VERSION with the latest release version, you can find it here.

Setting up the library using Gradle

If you are using Gradle, add the following lines into your build.gradle file

repositories {
	maven { url "https://mvn.mchv.eu/repository/mchv/" }
}
dependencies {
	// import the BOM
	implementation platform('it.tdlight:tdlight-java-bom:VERSION')

	// do not specify the versions on the dependencies below!
	implementation group: 'it.tdlight', name: 'tdlight-java' // Java 8 is supported if you use the following dependency classifier: `jdk8`
	implementation group: 'it.tdlight', name: 'tdlight-natives', classifier: 'linux_amd64_gnu_ssl1'
	// Include other native classifiers, for example linux_amd64_clang_ssl3, macos_amd64, ... -->
}

Replace VERSION with the latest release version, you can find it here.

âš’ Native dependencies

To use TDLight Java you need to include the native libraries, by specifying one of the following classifier for each tdlight-natives dependency:

  • linux_amd64_clang_ssl3
  • linux_amd64_gnu_ssl1
  • linux_amd64_gnu_ssl3
  • linux_arm64_clang_ssl3
  • linux_arm64_gnu_ssl1
  • linux_arm64_gnu_ssl3
  • linux_armhf_gnu_ssl1
  • linux_armhf_gnu_ssl3
  • linux_ppc64el_gnu_ssl3
  • linux_riscv64_gnu_ssl3
  • windows_amd64
  • macos_arm64
  • macos_amd64

Advanced: If you want to use a different precompiled native, please set the java property it.tdlight.native.workdir. (Please note that you must build this, you can't put random precompiled tdlib binaries found on the internet)

Usage

An example on how to use TDLight Java can be found here: Example.java

Advanced usage

If you want to disable the automatic runtime shutdown hook, you should set the property it.tdlight.enableShutdownHooks to false
