Telegram Web K

Based on Webogram, patched and improved. Available for everyone here: https://web.telegram.org/k/

Developing

Install dependencies with:

pnpm install

This will install all the needed dependencies.

Running web-server

Just run pnpm start to start the web server and the livereload task. Open http://localhost:8080/ in your browser.

Running in production

Run node build to build the minimized production version of the app. Copy public folder contents to your web server.

Running in docker

Developing:
  • Install dependencies docker-compose up tweb.dependencies.
  • Run develop container docker-compose up tweb.develop .
  • Open http://localhost:8080/ in your browser.
Production:
  • Run docker-compose up tweb.production -d nginx image and container to serve the build
  • Open http://localhost:80/ in your browser.

You can use docker build -f ./.docker/Dockerfile_production -t {dockerhub-username}/{imageName}:{latest} . to build your production ready image.

Dependencies

Debugging

You are welcome in helping to minimize the impact of bugs. There are classes, binded to global context. Look through the code for certain one and just get it by its name in developer tools. Source maps are included in production build for your convenience.

Additional query parameters
  • test=1: to use test DCs
  • debug=1: to enable additional logging
  • noSharedWorker=1: to disable Shared Worker, can be useful for debugging
  • http=1: to force the use of HTTPS transport when connecting to Telegram servers

Should be applied like that: http://localhost:8080/?test=1

Taking local storage snapshots

You can also take and load snapshots of the local storage and indexed DB using the ./snapshot-server mini-app. Check the README.md under this folder for more details.

Preview all icons

You can see all the available svg icons by calling the showIconLibrary() global function in the browser's console.
