Hydrogram is a Python library for interacting with the Telegram MTProto API. It provides a simple and intuitive interface for developers to leverage the power of Telegram's API in their Python applications.
To install Hydrogram, you need Python 3 installed on your system. If you don't have Python installed, you can download it from the official website.
To install Hydrogram, use pip:
pip install hydrogram -UHere is a basic example of how to use Hydrogram:
from hydrogram import Client, filters
app = Client("my_account")
@app.on_message(filters.private)
async def hello(client, message):
await message.reply("Hello from Hydrogram!")
app.run()- Easy: Makes the Telegram API simple and intuitive, while still allowing advanced usages.
- Elegant: Low-level details are abstracted and re-presented in a more convenient way.
- Fast: Boosted up by TgCrypto, a high-performance cryptography library written in C.
- Type-hinted: Types and methods are all type-hinted, enabling excellent editor support.
- Async: Fully asynchronous (also usable synchronously if wanted, for convenience).
