# Examples
|
|
|
|
The examples in this folder are small bots meant to show you how a bot that is written with `python-telegram-bot` looks like. Some bots focus on one specific aspect of the Telegram Bot API while others focus on one of the mechanics of this library. Except for the [`echobot.py`](#pure-api) example, they all use the high-level framework this library provides with the [`telegram.ext`](https://python-telegram-bot.readthedocs.io/en/latest/telegram.ext.html) submodule.

### [`echobot2.py`](https://github.com/python-telegram-bot/python-telegram-bot/blob/master/examples/echobot2.py)
|
|
This is probably the base for most of the bots made with `python-telegram-bot`. It simply replies to each text message with a message that contains the same text.
|
|
|
|
### [`timerbot.py`](https://github.com/python-telegram-bot/python-telegram-bot/blob/master/examples/timerbot.py)
|
|
This bot uses the [`JobQueue`](https://python-telegram-bot.readthedocs.io/en/latest/telegram.ext.jobqueue.html) class to send timed messages. The user sets a timer by using `/set` command with a specific time, for example `/set 30`. The bot then sets up a job to send a message to that user after 30 seconds. The user can also cancel the timer by sending `/unset`. To learn more about the `JobQueue`, read [this wiki article](https://github.com/python-telegram-bot/python-telegram-bot/wiki/Extensions-%E2%80%93-JobQueue).

|
### [`conversationbot.py`](https://github.com/python-telegram-bot/python-telegram-bot/blob/master/examples/conversationbot.py)
|
|
A common task for a bot is to ask information from the user. In v5.0 of this library, we introduced the [`ConversationHandler`](https://python-telegram-bot.readthedocs.io/en/latest/telegram.ext.conversationhandler.html) for that exact purpose. This example uses it to retrieve user-information in a conversation-like style. To get a better understanding, take a look at the [state diagram](https://github.com/python-telegram-bot/python-telegram-bot/blob/master/examples/conversationbot.png).

|
|
|
### [`conversationbot2.py`](https://github.com/python-telegram-bot/python-telegram-bot/blob/master/examples/conversationbot2.py)
|
|
A more complex example of a bot that uses the `ConversationHandler`. It is also more confusing. Good thing there is a [fancy state diagram](https://github.com/python-telegram-bot/python-telegram-bot/blob/master/examples/conversationbot2.png) for this one, too!

|
|
### [`inlinekeyboard.py`](https://github.com/python-telegram-bot/python-telegram-bot/blob/master/examples/inlinekeyboard.py)
|
|
This example sheds some light on inline keyboards, callback queries and message editing.
|
|
|
|
### [`inlinebot.py`](https://github.com/python-telegram-bot/python-telegram-bot/blob/master/examples/inlinebot.py)
|
|
A basic example of an [inline bot](https://core.telegram.org/bots/inline). Don't forget to enable inline mode with [@BotFather](https://telegram.me/BotFather).
|
|
|
|
### [`paymentbot.py`](https://github.com/python-telegram-bot/python-telegram-bot/blob/master/examples/paymentbot.py)
|
|
A basic example of a bot that can accept payments. Don't forget to enable and configure payments with [@BotFather](https://telegram.me/BotFather).

|
## Pure API
|
|
The [`echobot.py`](https://github.com/python-telegram-bot/python-telegram-bot/blob/master/examples/echobot.py) example uses only the pure, "bare-metal" API wrapper.
