icq.bot.net

HTTP-Based C# implementation for ICQ Bot APIs.

No Microsoft proprietary mambo jumbo needed! Built on the goodness of .Net Core 3.1 and Json.Net

What's in it for me?

With this package you can:

• Respond to Bot Events
• Send Text Messages
• Edit Text Messages
• Send Files (supports image and video)

How do I get it?

NuGet package is avaiable at nuget.org

How do I ramp up?

Usage is similar to the excellent .Net Telegram.Bot project.

Simple Echo Bot:

using ICQ.Bot.Args;
using System;

private readonly static IICQBotClient bot = new ICQBotClient("[BOT_ID_FROM_ICQ_METABOT]");

public static void Main(string[] args)
{
  bot.OnMessage += BotOnMessageReceived;
  var me = bot.GetMeAsync().Result;

  bot.StartReceiving();
  Console.WriteLine($"Start listening to @{me.Nick}");

  Console.ReadLine();
  bot.StopReceiving();
}

private static void BotOnMessageReceived(object sender, MessageEventArgs messageEventArgs)
{
  var message = messageEventArgs.Message;
  bot.SendTextMessageAsync(message.From.UserId, message.Text).Wait();
}

Let's make .Net the #1 client for ICQ bots!
