pyTelegramBotAPI (TeleBot) is a simple but extensible Python implementation of the Telegram Bot API, supporting both synchronous and asynchronous usage. It provides handlers for messages, callbacks, inline queries, payments, and more, with middleware and custom filter support.

Use cases

  • build a telegram bot in python
  • create an echo bot for telegram
  • handle telegram callback queries and inline queries
  • add middleware to telegram bot message handling
  • send messages and media via the telegram bot api
  • build a telegram bot with payments and pre-checkout support
  • run a telegram bot asynchronously

When to choose

  • you want a lightweight, dependency-light Python wrapper for the full Telegram Bot API
  • you need both sync and async bot implementations in one library
  • you want fine-grained handler registration for messages, polls, chat members, and inline mode
  • you prefer a plain API wrapper over a heavier framework like aiogram

When to avoid

  • you need a full-featured bot framework with built-in FSM/state storage and routing conventions
  • you are building bots for platforms other than Telegram
  • you require a permissive license - this is GPL-2.0
