🚀 Combine Televerse with Shelf for Custom Webhook Servers

televerse_shelf extends the functionality of the Televerse framework, enabling you to integrate the power of Shelf into your Telegram bots. While Televerse natively supports webhooks, it implicitly handles server creation, limiting user control over routes and server customization. With televerse_shelf, you can build fully customizable web servers using Shelf while managing your bot's webhook on a dedicated route.

This package is perfect for developers who want to combine the simplicity of Televerse with the flexibility of Shelf to handle other web server tasks alongside Telegram bot updates.

✨ Key Features

• Customizable Webhook Routes
  Define a specific route for handling Telegram updates via webhooks, without interfering with other routes.

• Full Shelf Integration
  Seamlessly use Shelf's powerful routing and middleware alongside Televerse.

• Dedicated TeleverseShelfWebhook
  A custom adapter for Televerse, enabling webhook updates via Shelf.

• Multi-route Support
  Dedicate a single port for your bot webhook and additional routes, like APIs or health checks, all under one server.

💻 Getting Started

Here's a basic example to get you started with televerse_shelf:

import 'dart:io';
import 'package:shelf/shelf.dart';
import 'package:shelf/shelf_io.dart';
import 'package:shelf_router/shelf_router.dart';
import 'package:televerse/televerse.dart';
import 'package:televerse_shelf/televerse_shelf.dart';

void main() async {
  final token = Platform.environment['BOT_TOKEN']!;
  final fetcher = TeleverseShelfWebhook();
  final bot = Bot(token, fetcher: fetcher);

  bot.command('start', (ctx) async {
    await ctx.reply('Hello, world!');
  });

  final router = Router();

  // Set up your webhook route
  router.post('/webhook', fetcher.createHandler());

  // Define other custom routes
  router.get('/api', (req) => Response.ok('Hello from API!'));
  router.get('/health', (req) => Response.ok('{"status":"OK"}'));

  final pipeline = Pipeline().addMiddleware(logRequests()).addHandler(router.call);

  final server = await serve(pipeline, 'localhost', 8080);

  await bot.start();
  print('Server running on port ${server.port}');
}

🤔 What’s Happening Here?

• TeleverseShelfWebhook: Manages webhook updates and integrates with Shelf.
• Custom Routes: Use Shelf's Router to define /api and /health alongside the bot's /webhook.
• Pipeline & Middleware: Add logging, authentication, or other middleware to your server.
