# Deprecation Notice
**Don’t use this for new projects.**  
**[telegram-mtproto](https://github.com/zerobias/telegram-mtproto) is much more advanced and has a better API.**

**Telegram Mobile Protocol** [(MTProto)](https://core.telegram.org/mtproto) unofficial library in pure **javascript** on the Node.js platform

## About MTProto..

**MTProto** is the [Telegram Messenger](http://www.telegram.org ) protocol 
_"designed for access to a server API from applications running on mobile devices"_.

The Mobile Protocol is subdivided into three components ([from the official site](https://core.telegram.org/mtproto#general-description)):

 - High-level component (API query language): defines the method whereby API 
 queries and responses are converted to binary messages.
 
 - Cryptographic (authorization) layer: defines the method by which messages 
 are encrypted prior to being transmitted through the transport protocol.      
 
 - Transport component: defines the method for the client and the server to transmit 
 messages over some other existing network protocol (such as, http, https, tcp, udp).



## telegram-mt-node in short..

The **telegram-mt-node** library implements the **Mobile Protocol** and provides the following features:

 - Both **TCP** and **HTTP connections** implemented in the transport layer
 
 - A cipher implementation for **AES and RSA encryption** in the security layer
 
 - Both **plain-text and encrypted message** to communicate data with the server
 
 - **Diffie-Hellman key exchange** supported by the **prime factorization** function implemented in the security layer
 
 - **MTProto TL-Schema** compilation as **javascript classes and functions** via [**@goodmind/telegram-tl-node**](https://github.com/goodmind/telegram-tl-node) dependency
