Here’s a simple example of how to send a message from Go via Telegram:<\/p>\n
package main\r\n\r\nimport (\r\n\"bytes\"\r\n\"fmt\"\r\n\"net\/http\"\r\n\"encoding\/json\"\r\n)\r\n\r\nfunc send(text string, bot string, chat_id string) {\r\n\r\nrequest_url := \"https:\/\/api.telegram.org\/\" + bot + \"\/sendMessage\"\r\n\r\nclient := &http.Client{}\r\n\r\nvalues := map[string]string{\"text\": text, \"chat_id\": chat_id }\r\njson_paramaters, _ := json.Marshal(values)\r\n\r\nreq, _:= http.NewRequest(\"POST\", request_url, bytes.NewBuffer(json_paramaters))\r\nreq.Header.Set(\"Content-Type\", \"application\/json\")\r\n\r\nres, err := client.Do(req)\r\n\r\nif(err != nil){\r\nfmt.Println(err)\r\n} else {\r\nfmt.Println(res.Status)\r\ndefer res.Body.Close()\r\n}\r\n\r\n}\r\n\r\nfunc main() {\r\n\r\nsend(\"hello telegram\", \"bot<TOKEN>\", \"<CHAT_ID>\")\r\n\r\n} \/\/ main<\/pre>\n[j@us:1~]$ go run zsend.go\r\n200 OK\r\n[j@us:1 ~]$<\/pre>\nFor testing it might be easier to use curl:<\/p>\n
curl -v -X POST -H 'Content-Type: application\/json' -d '{\"chat_id\": \"<CHAT_ID>\", \"text\": \"hello telegram\"}' https:\/\/api.telegram.org\/bot<TOKEN>\/sendMessage<\/pre>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Here’s a simple example of how to send a message from Go via Telegram: package main import ( “bytes” “fmt” “net\/http” “encoding\/json” ) func send(text string, bot string, chat_id string) { request_url := “https:\/\/api.telegram.org\/” + bot + “\/sendMessage” client := &http.Client{} values := map[string]string{“text”: text, “chat_id”: chat_id } json_paramaters, _ := json.Marshal(values) req, _:= http.NewRequest(“POST”,… <\/p>\n
