The simplest code of Echo Bot looks like this:
main.swift
import Foundation
import Telegrammer
do {
let bot = try Bot(token: "BOT_TOKEN_HERE")
let echoHandler = MessageHandler { (update, _) in
_ = try? update.message?.reply(text: "Hello \(update.message?.from?.firstName ?? "anonymous")", from: bot)
}
let dispatcher = Dispatcher(bot: bot)
dispatcher.add(handler: echoHandler)
_ = try Updater(bot: bot, dispatcher: dispatcher).startLongpolling().wait()
} catch {
exit(1)
}
