5All methods have been added, and all features should be available.

10This is a very simple bot that just displays any gotten updates, then replies it to that chat.
11
12```go
13package main
14
15import (
16 "log"
17 "github.com/Syfaro/telegram-bot-api"
18)
19
20func main() {
21 bot, err := tgbotapi.NewBotAPI("MyAwesomeBotToken")
22 if err != nil {
23 log.Panic(err)
24 }
25
26 bot.Debug = true
27
28 log.Printf("Authorized on account %s", bot.Self.UserName)
29
30 u := tgbotapi.NewUpdate(0)
31 u.Timeout = 60
32
33 updates, err := bot.UpdatesChan(u)
34
35 for update := range updates {
36 log.Printf("[%s] %s", update.Message.From.UserName, update.Message.Text)
37
38 msg := tgbotapi.NewMessage(update.Message.Chat.ID, update.Message.Text)
39 msg.ReplyToMessageID = update.Message.MessageID
40
41 bot.SendMessage(msg)
42 }
43}
