Telegram VoIP phone calls

MadelineProto provides an easy wrapper to work with phone calls.

Full webradio example

Requesting a call

<?php

if (!file_exists('madeline.php')) {
    copy('https://phar.madelineproto.xyz/madeline.php', 'madeline.php');
}
include 'madeline.php';

$MadelineProto = new \danog\MadelineProto\API('session.madeline');
$MadelineProto->start();

$call = $MadelineProto->requestCall('@danogentili');

The requestCall function accepts one parameter with the ID/username/Peer/User/InputPeer of the person to call, and returns a VoIP object that can be used to play audio files, set the hold files, change the configuration and set the output file (see the VoIP API documentation for more info).

You can play audio files of any format as follows:

Playing audio files

You can play audio files of any format:

<?php

if (!file_exists('madeline.php')) {
    copy('https://phar.madelineproto.xyz/madeline.php', 'madeline.php');
}
include 'madeline.php';

use danog\MadelineProto\LocalFile;

$MadelineProto = new \danog\MadelineProto\API('session.madeline');
$MadelineProto->start();

$call = $MadelineProto->requestCall('@danogentili');
$call->play(new LocalFile("audio.mp3"))
     ->then(new LocalFile("audio.flac"))
     ->then(new LocalFile("audio.wav"))
     ->then(new LocalFile("audio_with_video.mp4"));

You can also play remote streams (or simple remote files) by URL:

<?php

if (!file_exists('madeline.php')) {
    copy('https://phar.madelineproto.xyz/madeline.php', 'madeline.php');
}
include 'madeline.php';

use danog\MadelineProto\RemoteUrl;

$MadelineProto = new \danog\MadelineProto\API('session.madeline');
$MadelineProto->start();

$call = $MadelineProto->requestCall('@danogentili');
$call->play(new RemoteUrl("http://icestreaming.rai.it/1.mp3"));

You can also play Telegram files, using AMP streams!

Webhost support

Starting from MadelineProto 8, VoIP now works on webhosts, too, thanks to a pure PHP implementation of libtgvoip and a pure PHP OGG demuxer!

The only limitation when running on webhosts is that audio files must be preconverted using by sending them to @libtgvoip_bot (source code), or by using the following script on your PC:

<?php

if (!file_exists('madeline.php')) {
    copy('https://phar.madelineproto.xyz/madeline.php', 'madeline.php');
}
include 'madeline.php';

use danog\MadelineProto\LocalFile;

\danog\MadelineProto\Ogg::convert(new LocalFile("in.mp3"), new LocalFile("out.ogg"));

Copy out.ogg to your webhost, and then run this script on your webhost:

<?php

if (!file_exists('madeline.php')) {
    copy('https://phar.madelineproto.xyz/madeline.php', 'madeline.php');
}
include 'madeline.php';

use danog\MadelineProto\LocalFile;

$MadelineProto = new \danog\MadelineProto\API('session.madeline');
$MadelineProto->start();

$call = $MadelineProto->requestCall('@danogentili');
$call->play(new LocalFile("out.ogg"));

Accepting calls

Accepting calls is just as easy:

<?php

declare(strict_types=1);

if (!file_exists('madeline.php')) {
    copy('https://phar.madelineproto.xyz/madeline.php', 'madeline.php');
}
include 'madeline.php';

use danog\MadelineProto\EventHandler\SimpleFilter\Incoming;
use danog\MadelineProto\VoIP;
use danog\MadelineProto\RemoteUrl;
use danog\MadelineProto\EventHandler\Attributes\Handler;

class PonyHandler extends \danog\MadelineProto\SimpleEventHandler
{
    #[Handler]
    public function handleIncomingCall(VoIP&Incoming $call): void
    {
        $call->accept()->play(new RemoteUrl('http://icestreaming.rai.it/1.mp3'));
    }
}

PonyHandler::startAndLoop('session.madeline');

Recording calls

To record the incoming audio stream in a call, simply use setOutput:

<?php

declare(strict_types=1);

if (!file_exists('madeline.php')) {
    copy('https://phar.madelineproto.xyz/madeline.php', 'madeline.php');
}
include 'madeline.php';

use danog\MadelineProto\EventHandler\SimpleFilter\Incoming;
use danog\MadelineProto\VoIP;
use danog\MadelineProto\RemoteUrl;
use danog\MadelineProto\LocalFile;
use danog\MadelineProto\EventHandler\Attributes\Handler;
use Amp\ByteStream\WritableStream;

class PonyHandler extends \danog\MadelineProto\SimpleEventHandler
{
    #[Handler]
    public function handleIncomingCall(VoIP&Incoming $call): void
    {
        $call->accept();
        $call->play(new RemoteUrl('http://icestreaming.rai.it/1.mp3'));

        $call->setOutput(new LocalFile('output.ogg'));
        
        // $stream can also be a WritableStream.
        // Can be used to pipe OGG OPUS audio data to ffmpeg, asterisk via amphp/process, amphp/socket, etc...
        //
        //$call->setOutput($stream);
    }
}

PonyHandler::startAndLoop('session.madeline');
