<p>When interacting with HTML5 games and the websites of payment gateways, Telegram apps should expose APIs to allow receiving data and events from the websites.</p>
<p>Games and payment gateways can generate events that are meant to be received by the Telegram apps.
Typically events are generated by using the <code>postEvent</code> method of the <ahref="https://github.com/TelegramMessenger/GamingCommunication/blob/master/games.js">GamingCommunication library</a>.
The <code>postEvent</code> function will try sending the event to the Telegram app in a number of different ways.</p>
<p>In mobile apps, the event receiver API should be typically exposed as a <code>window.TelegramWebviewProxy</code> object with a <code>postEvent</code> method.</p>
<p>Finally, web MTProto clients that need to open a game or process a payment in an iframe can use the <ahref="https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/Window/postMessage">postMessage API</a> to receive events from iframes.
The <ahref="https://github.com/TelegramMessenger/GamingCommunication/blob/master/games.js">GamingCommunication library</a> by default will use <code>'*'</code> as <code>targetOrigin</code>, sending messages to parent pages regardless of the origin of the embedder.</p>
<p><code>eventType</code> is a simple string indicating the event type, and <code>eventData</code> is a payload with an object that will be parsed by the Telegram app.</p>
