📥 YTDLBot - Telegram Video Downloader

📦 Requirements

Before getting started, ensure you have the following installed:

• uv
• telegram-bot-api
• ffmpeg

🚀 Quick Start Guide

1. Run Your Local Bot API Server

   • Follow the instructions to set up your local server from the official documentation. If you don't want to build it yourself, you can check tdlib.native.

2. Obtain API Credentials

   • Get your api-id and api-hash from the Telegram API.

3. Start the Server

   • Run the bot API server using the following command:

     telegram-bot-api --api-id YOUR_API_ID --api-hash YOUR_API_HASH --http-port 7575 --local

4. Log Out the Bot from the Official API

   • Open this link in your browser:

     https://api.telegram.org/bot<YOUR_TOKEN>/logOut

   • Make sure to replace <YOUR_TOKEN> with your actual bot token. You should see a JSON response that looks like this:

     {"ok":true,"result":true}

5. Interact with the Bot

   • Rename .env-example to .env and add your bot token there (or pass it to the script with -t <TOKEN>). Then run the bot:

     uv run bot.py
