The intention of the library is to have an existing MTProto library
|
||
|
|
existing with hardly any dependencies (indeed, wherever Python is
|
||
|
|
available, you can run this library).
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Being written in Python means that performance will be nowhere close to
|
||
|
|
other implementations written in, for instance, Java, C++, Rust, or
|
||
|
|
pretty much any other compiled language. However, the library turns out
|
||
|
|
to actually be pretty decent for common operations such as sending
|
||
|
|
messages, receiving updates, or other scripting. Uploading files may be
|
||
|
|
notably slower, but if you would like to contribute, pull requests are
|
||
|
|
appreciated!
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
If ``libssl`` is available on your system, the library will make use of
|
||
|
|
it to speed up some critical parts such as encrypting and decrypting the
|
||
|
|
messages. Files will notably be sent and downloaded faster.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The main focus is to keep everything clean and simple, for everyone to
|
||
|
|
understand how working with MTProto and Telegram works. Don't be afraid
|
||
|
|
to read the source, the code won't bite you! It may prove useful when
|
||
|
|
using the library on your own use cases.
