Telegram Bot for Cloudflare Workers

A lightweight, type-safe Telegram bot framework for Cloudflare Workers: handlers chain off the incoming Request, middleware runs before them, and one URL registers the webhook. 214 forks and 120 releases on npm.

The package page and a Worker that hands its fetch handler to the bot

The problem

Run a useful Telegram bot without a persistent server while keeping webhook handling, shared types and the companion web application deployable together.

Architecture

The Worker’s fetch receives Telegram’s webhook and hands the Request to the bot, which dispatches to typed handlers.
Middleware runs before the handlers, and the shared package keeps the bot and its web app on one set of types.
A visit to /<token>/setWebhook registers the Worker with Telegram, so there is no deploy-time CLI step to go live.

Highlights

214 forks and 120 releases on npm, under Apache-2.0
No runtime dependencies beyond the type definitions
Separate development and production Worker bindings, with a consumer template to start from
