Telegram php example send message [closed]

Question

I can't find an example of sending message by telegram protocol from php. Can you give me any functional examples?

Answer 1

I use the following function:

function sendMessage($chatID, $messaggio, $token) {     echo "sending message to " . $chatID . "\n";      $url = "https://api.telegram.org/bot" . $token . "/sendMessage?chat_id=" . $chatID;     $url = $url . "&text=" . urlencode($messaggio);     $ch = curl_init();     $optArray = array(             CURLOPT_URL => $url,             CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER => true     );     curl_setopt_array($ch, $optArray);     $result = curl_exec($ch);     curl_close($ch);     return $result; } 

and you call in this way

$token = "<insert bot token here>"; $chatid = "<chatID>"; sendMessage($chatid, "Hello World", $token);
