sleddev / tg-stickers Goto Github PK

Use Telegram stickers in other applications (for example Discord, Messenger, Twitter DMs, Instagram DMs).

This project is WIP, and provided as is. I'm developing on Windows, so it's only actively tested on Windows. Might or might not work well on linux. Never tested on masOS (maybe works, probably not)

Extract the latest release zip, and run tgstickers.exe. You can create a shortcut for easy access.

After first launch, click the add button to add your first sticker pack.

To add a local sticker pack, enter a title (will be displayed on the main page), a name (the last segment of the sticker pack link, for example: hiostickerpack for https://t.me/addstickers/hiostickerpack), locate the sticker pack folder, and choose a cover photo.

To download a sticker pack from Telegram, enter the link or name of the pack and your Telegram bot token.

Getting a bot token:

1. Find @BotFather on Telegram
2. Send the message /newbot
3. Enter a name (whatever you want)
4. Enter a username (anything you want, as long as it isn't taken)
5. You will receive a token, looks something like 1234567890:AsdFGhJklQwERtzUioPYxCVbnM... don't share this with anyone

Click a sticker pack to select it, and then click on a sticker to copy it.

Right click on a sticker to bring up a bigger preview, then either click on the sticker to copy, or right click again to hide the preview.

Right click on a sticker pack logo to open a Pack Menu, where you can reorder or delete the packs.

Press Windows + - to open the application if the background service is running (started automatically when you launch the app, and can be closed from system tray icons. The background service consumes around 1MB or memory, and should have no impact on performance).

You can change between sticker packs using the PageUp, PageDown, Home, and End buttons
