Here is Docker image for https://github.com/tdlib/telegram-bot-api

The Telegram Bot API provides an HTTP API for creating Telegram Bots.

If you've got any questions about bots or would like to report an issue with your bot, kindly contact us at @BotSupport in Telegram.

Before start, you will need to obtain api-id and api-hash as described in https://core.telegram.org/api/obtaining_api_id and specify them using the TELEGRAM_API_ID and TELEGRAM_API_HASH environment variables.

And then to start the Telegram Bot API all you need to do is docker run -d -p 8081:8081 --name=telegram-bot-api --restart=always -v telegram-bot-api-data:/var/lib/telegram-bot-api -e TELEGRAM_API_ID=<api_id> -e TELEGRAM_API_HASH=<api-hash> aiogram/telegram-bot-api:latest

Container can be configured via environment variables

Application identifiers for Telegram API access, which can be obtained at https://my.telegram.org as described in https://core.telegram.org/api/obtaining_api_id

allow the Bot API server to serve local requests
