package main
import (
"fmt"
"github.com/amarnathcjd/gogram/telegram"
)
func main() {
client, _ := telegram.NewClient(telegram.ClientConfig{ // Create a new client
AppID: 6,
AppHash: "app_hash",
})
client.Start()
chatId := int64(-1001234567890) // chat id of the chat whose history is to be fetched
messages, err := client.GetHistory(chatId, &telegram.HistoryOption{
Limit: 1000,
Offset: 0,
})
if err != nil {
fmt.Println("Error:", err)
return
}
for _, message := range messages {
fmt.Println(message.Marshal()) // .Marshal() returns the message in JSON format
}
fmt.Println("Total messages:", len(messages))
}
