Telepot is a Python framework wrapping the Telegram Bot API, providing classes and helpers for building Telegram bots. The author has explicitly stopped maintaining the library.

Use cases

  • build a telegram bot in python
  • handle telegram bot updates and webhooks
  • send messages and media via telegram bot api
  • create inline keyboard bots
  • learn how telegram bot api works in python

When to choose

  • you need a lightweight pure-python telegram bot library and accept no updates
  • maintaining an existing codebase already built on telepot

When to avoid

  • starting a new telegram bot project - the library is unmaintained since 2021
  • you need support for newer telegram bot api features
  • you want security fixes or active community support
