This is Telegram API for python. Main aim is to implement MTProto protocol Telegram API on pure Python (not wrapped CLI)

• Make it work on Python 2 as well as 3.
• Follow up the same functionality of CLI API.
  • Serialize/Deserialize
  • Send and receive PQ authorization with server [doc]
  • Send and receive service messages with server like logging in to server [doc]

Detailed description of API and protocol can be found here:

• https://core.telegram.org/api
• https://core.telegram.org/mtproto

API registration is needed to be done by yourself at http://my.telegram.org Follow Structure - Credentials for provide it your API information.

• tests
• Serialization and SHA.py
• mtproto.py
• testing.py
• prime.py
• credentials
• rsa.pub

Repo doesn't contain any credentials to connect Telegram servers. You can get yours from http://my.telegram.org

You should place 2 files in the root of your repo:

• credentials
• rsa.pub

Config example for "credentials" file:

[App data]
api_id: 12345
api_hash: 1234567890abcdef1234567890abcdef
ip_address: 112.134.156.178
port: 443

rsa.pub contains your RSA key.

Contains functions to work with MTproto protocol:

• TL schema parsing
• serializing and deserializing
• manage connections to server
• send and receive messages

testing.py is used to test functionality of modules. Now it makes steps from https://core.telegram.org/mtproto/samples-auth_key:

• sends PQ request to server
• parses the result
• factorizes PQ

prime.py is used in PQ factorization. It has been copied from https://stackoverflow.com/questions/4643647/fast-prime-factorization-module

We use JSON format TL Shema. TL Schema file contains information about objects and methods, it is located in TL_schema.JSON file in the root of repo. It is fully equivalent to JSON TL Schema from https://core.telegram.org/schema/mtproto-json
