can Telegram CLI mimick Telegram bots? -
i saw on internet there programs can use telegram cli.
want choose between them
telegram bot api there more documents explaining functionality, cli there isn't explains features
seems way know experiment it.
unfortunately don't have linux distro installed on pc experimenting isn't option right know.
thought ask people used it
know telegram bot api, powers , limitations
here questions:
can using telegram cli can't with bot api, , vice versa?
telegram bot api:
- do not require register new telegram account, don't need have phone number;
- bot cannot write user first, after user sends first message bot;
- already has commands interface (/command);
- can stuff simple http post (by sending request via curl, example). can hook tons of stuff (notifications new articles @ website or so);
- you can rather create lots of them;
- you can write own implementation in programming language;
- you have list of bots have created (thanks @botfather). if have lost somehow control of bot - revoke token via @botfather , it's yours again;
- pretty simple use.
telegram client application (in case - cli):
- requires new telegram account registration phone number;
- acts other actual telegram user (can write other users first, without invitation). well, that's thing;
- not cross-platform abilities (some lack of cli-realisations);
- not easy install , use;
- you have implement commands handling part;
- if have lost phone number - pretty lose account, because it's not make precautions cli client account. have register new 1 , repeat setting procedure client.
in conclusion, bots got rid of cli clients, in opinion. had cli account right moment bots appeared. after deleted , created bot. , not 1 :)
so, bots "robot" stuff, , real accounts real people.
