Setup Project Node.js

Initialize Project

mkdir telegram-bot
cd telegram-bot
npm init -y
npm install node-telegram-bot-api dotenv

Environment Setup

# .env
TELEGRAM_BOT_TOKEN=your_bot_token_here

Basic Bot

// index.js
require("dotenv").config();
const TelegramBot = require("node-telegram-bot-api");
const token = process.env.TELEGRAM_BOT_TOKEN;
const bot = new TelegramBot(token, { polling: true });
// Handle /start command
bot.onText(/\/start/, (msg) => {
const chatId = msg.chat.id;
const name = msg.from.first_name;
bot.sendMessage(chatId, 
Halo ${name}! 👋\nSelamat datang di bot saya.);
});
 
// Handle /help command
bot.onText(/\/help/, (msg) => {
const chatId = msg.chat.id;
const helpText = `
📚 Daftar Perintah:
 
/start - Memulai bot
/help - Tampilkan bantuan
/menu - Tampilkan menu
/info - Info bot
 
 Kirim pesan apa saja untuk berinteraksi. `;
bot.sendMessage(chatId, helpText, { parse_mode: "Markdown" });
});
 
console.log("Bot is running..."); 

Handling Messages

Text Messages

// Handle any text message
bot.on("message", (msg) => {
  const chatId = msg.chat.id;
  const text = msg.text;
// Skip commands
if (text && text.startsWith("/")) return;
bot.sendMessage(chatId, 
Kamu mengirim: ${text});
});
 
// Handle specific text
bot.onText(/halo|hai|hi/i, (msg) => {
const chatId = msg.chat.id;
bot.sendMessage(chatId, "Halo juga! 😊");
});
 
// Handle with regex groups
bot.onText(/\/echo (.+)/, (msg, match) => {
const chatId = msg.chat.id;
const response = match[1]; // Captured text
bot.sendMessage(chatId, response);
}); 

Send Different Content Types

// Send photo
bot.sendPhoto(chatId, "https://example.com/photo.jpg", {
  caption: "Ini adalah foto",
});
// Send from file
bot.sendPhoto(chatId, "./images/photo.jpg");
// Send document
bot.sendDocument(chatId, "./files/document.pdf");
// Send location
bot.sendLocation(chatId, -6.2088, 106.8456); // Jakarta
// Send contact
bot.sendContact(chatId, "+62812345678", "John Doe");
// Send sticker
bot.sendSticker(chatId, "sticker_file_id");

Inline Keyboards

Basic Keyboard

bot.onText(/\/menu/, (msg) => {
  const chatId = msg.chat.id;
const keyboard = {
reply_markup: {
inline_keyboard: [
[
{ text: "📊 Status", callback_data: "status" },
{ text: "⚙️ Settings", callback_data: "settings" },
],
[
{ text: "❓ Help", callback_data: "help" },
{ text: "📞 Contact", callback_data: "contact" },
],
[{ text: "🌐 Visit Website", url: "https://example.com" }],
],
},
};
bot.sendMessage(chatId, "Pilih menu:", keyboard);
});
// Handle callback query
bot.on("callback_query", async (query) => {
const chatId = query.message.chat.id;
const data = query.data;
// Answer callback to remove loading
await bot.answerCallbackQuery(query.id);
switch (data) {
case "status":
bot.sendMessage(chatId, "✅ Bot berjalan normal");
break;
case "settings":
bot.sendMessage(chatId, "⚙️ Menu settings");
break;
case "help":
bot.sendMessage(chatId, "❓ Bantuan...");
break;
case "contact":
bot.sendMessage(chatId, "📞 Hubungi: @username");
break;
}
});

Reply Keyboard

bot.onText(/\/keyboard/, (msg) => {
  const chatId = msg.chat.id;
const keyboard = {
reply_markup: {
keyboard: [
["📊 Status", "⚙️ Settings"],
["❓ Help", "📞 Contact"],
["❌ Close"],
],
resize_keyboard: true,
one_time_keyboard: false,
},
};
bot.sendMessage(chatId, "Keyboard tersedia:", keyboard);
});
// Remove keyboard
bot.onText(/❌ Close/, (msg) => {
const chatId = msg.chat.id;
bot.sendMessage(chatId, "Keyboard dihapus", {
reply_markup: { remove_keyboard: true },
});
});

Conversation Flow

Simple State Management

// Store user states
const userStates = {};
bot.onText(/\/feedback/, (msg) => {
const chatId = msg.chat.id;
userStates[chatId] = { step: "waiting_feedback" };
bot.sendMessage(chatId, "Silakan kirim feedback Anda:");
});
bot.on("message", (msg) => {
const chatId = msg.chat.id;
const text = msg.text;
if (text.startsWith("/")) return;
const state = userStates[chatId];
if (state && state.step === "waiting_feedback") {
// Save feedback
console.log(
Feedback from ${chatId}: ${text});
 
bot.sendMessage(chatId, "Terima kasih atas feedback Anda! 🙏");
delete userStates[chatId];
 
}
 });
 
 
Multi-Step Form
 
const forms = {};
bot.onText(/\/register/, (msg) => {
const chatId = msg.chat.id;
forms[chatId] = { step: 1, data: {} };
bot.sendMessage(chatId, "Langkah 1/3: Masukkan nama Anda:");
});
bot.on("message", (msg) => {
const chatId = msg.chat.id;
const text = msg.text;
if (text.startsWith("/")) return;
if (!forms[chatId]) return;
const form = forms[chatId];
switch (form.step) {
case 1:
form.data.name = text;
form.step = 2;
bot.sendMessage(chatId, "Langkah 2/3: Masukkan email:");
break;
case 2:
  if (!text.includes("@")) {
    bot.sendMessage(chatId, "Email tidak valid. Coba lagi:");
    return;
  }
  form.data.email = text;
  form.step = 3;
  bot.sendMessage(chatId, "Langkah 3/3: Masukkan nomor HP:");
  break;

case 3:
  form.data.phone = text;

  // Complete registration
  const summary = `
 
✅
 Registrasi Selesai!
 
Nama: ${form.data.name}
 Email: ${form.data.email}
 Phone: ${form.data.phone}
 `;
 bot.sendMessage(chatId, summary, { parse_mode: "Markdown" });
 delete forms[chatId];
 break;
 }
 });
 
 
Webhook Mode (Production)
 
Setup with Express
 
const express = require("express");
const TelegramBot = require("node-telegram-bot-api");
const token = process.env.TELEGRAM_BOT_TOKEN;
const url = process.env.WEBHOOK_URL; // Your server URL
const app = express();
app.use(express.json());
// Create bot without polling
const bot = new TelegramBot(token);
bot.setWebHook(
${url}/bot${token});
 
// Webhook endpoint
app.post(
/bot${token}, (req, res) => {
bot.processUpdate(req.body);
res.sendStatus(200);
});
 
// Your bot logic here
bot.onText(/\/start/, (msg) => {
bot.sendMessage(msg.chat.id, "Hello!");
});
 
const PORT = process.env.PORT || 3000;
app.listen(PORT, () => {
console.log(
Server running on port ${PORT});
}); 
 
 
Advanced Features
 
Broadcast Message
 
// Store subscribers
const subscribers = new Set();
bot.onText(/\/subscribe/, (msg) => {
const chatId = msg.chat.id;
subscribers.add(chatId);
bot.sendMessage(chatId, "✅ Berhasil subscribe!");
});
bot.onText(/\/unsubscribe/, (msg) => {
const chatId = msg.chat.id;
subscribers.delete(chatId);
bot.sendMessage(chatId, "❌ Berhasil unsubscribe");
});
// Admin broadcast
bot.onText(/\/broadcast (.+)/, async (msg, match) => {
const adminId = 123456789; // Your Telegram ID
if (msg.from.id !== adminId) return;
const message = match[1];
let sent = 0;
for (const chatId of subscribers) {
try {
await bot.sendMessage(chatId, message);
sent++;
} catch (error) {
subscribers.delete(chatId); // Remove invalid
}
}
bot.sendMessage(msg.chat.id, 
Broadcast terkirim ke ${sent} users);
}); 
 
 
Rate Limiting
 
const rateLimits = {};
const RATE_LIMIT = 5; // messages per minute
function checkRateLimit(chatId) {
const now = Date.now();
if (!rateLimits[chatId]) {
rateLimits[chatId] = { count: 1, resetAt: now + 60000 };
return true;
}
if (now > rateLimits[chatId].resetAt) {
rateLimits[chatId] = { count: 1, resetAt: now + 60000 };
return true;
}
if (rateLimits[chatId].count >= RATE_LIMIT) {
return false;
}
rateLimits[chatId].count++;
return true;
}
bot.on("message", (msg) => {
if (!checkRateLimit(msg.chat.id)) {
bot.sendMessage(msg.chat.id, "Terlalu banyak request. Tunggu sebentar.");
return;
}
// Process message
});
 
 
Database Integration
 
With MongoDB
 
const mongoose = require("mongoose");
mongoose.connect("mongodb://localhost:27017/telegram_bot");
const userSchema = new mongoose.Schema({
chatId: { type: Number, unique: true },
username: String,
firstName: String,
createdAt: { type: Date, default: Date.now },
settings: {
notifications: { type: Boolean, default: true },
},
});
const User = mongoose.model("User", userSchema);
// Save user on /start
bot.onText(/\/start/, async (msg) => {
const chatId = msg.chat.id;
await User.findOneAndUpdate(
{ chatId },
{
chatId,
username: msg.from.username,
firstName: msg.from.first_name,
},
{ upsert: true }
);
bot.sendMessage(chatId, "Selamat datang!");
});
 
 
Error Handling
 
Robust Error Handling
 
bot.on("polling_error", (error) => {
  console.error("Polling error:", error);
});
bot.on("webhook_error", (error) => {
console.error("Webhook error:", error);
});
// Wrap handlers
function safeHandler(handler) {
return async (msg, match) => {
try {
await handler(msg, match);
} catch (error) {
console.error("Handler error:", error);
bot.sendMessage(msg.chat.id, "Terjadi kesalahan. Coba lagi nanti.");
}
};
}
bot.onText(
/\/risky/,
safeHandler(async (msg) => {
// Your code that might throw
})
);
