=head1 DESCRIPTION

This module allows you to to define L<Bot::ChatBots> for
L<Telegram|https://telegram.org/>, a messaging application. For an
introduction and tutorial, see
L<Bot::ChatBots::Telegram::Guide::Tutorial>.

Strictly speaking, this I<module> is a L<Mojolicious> plugin that allows
you to load and use L<Bot::ChatBots::Telegram::WebHook> (see L</SYNOPSIS>
for a quick example). On the other hand, the I<distribution> also contains
other modules that allow you to interact with Telegram, e.g.
L<Bot::Chatbots::Telegram::LongPoll>.

These modules rely upon L<Log::Any> for emitting logging information; you
are encouraged to read that module's documentation for further
information. For what we are concerned, you have to remember that all logs
will be lost unless you configure L<Log::Any>, e.g. to send messages on
standard output you can do this:

   use Log::Any::Adapter qw< Stderr >;

If using the web hook, then you will probably want to send the logs
together with L<Mojolicious>'s logs, like this:

   use Mojolicious::Lite;
   use Log::Any::Adapter;
   Log::Any::Adapter->set(MojoLog => logger => app->log);

The configuration above relies on the presence of
L<Log::Any::Adapter::MojoLog>.

=head1 METHODS
