[](https://hitsofcode.com/view/github/yegor256/telepost)Telepost is a simple gateway to Telegram, which can post messages
and respond to primitive requests.First, get your token from [@BotFather](https://t.me/BotFather).
Then, install it:
```bash
gem install telepost
```Then, use it like this:
```ruby
require 'telepost'
tp = Telepost.new('..token..')
Thread.start do
tp.run do |chat, msg|
tp.post(chat, 'Thanks for talking to me!')
end
end
tp.post(12345, 'How are you?', 'How are you doing?')
```All lines you provide to the `post()` method will be concatenated
with a space between them.Or you can pre-configure it to talk to certain list of chats.
Your bot has to be an admin of the channel, in order to post there.
Here is how you "spam":```ruby
tp = Telepost.new('..token..', chats: ['my_channel'])
tp.spam('How are you?')
```That's it.
