Hi,

While it is relatively easy to post messages to Telegram with HTTPCaller (as Telegram bot), it would be good to see this functionality wrapped in transformer. (with ability to send pictures, etc).

Also having TelegramReceiver could be very useful to serve bot.

Use case: Direct notifications to your telegram.

For those, like me, who don't immediately understand what "telegram" refers to :-)

I have only tested the SendMessage method. Register yourself a bot via @BotFather in Telegram, then use token to call https://core.telegram.org/bots/api#sendmessage. You will need to know contact id or char it for bot to post to. First send a message to bot, or invite it to chat room, then look at https://core.telegram.org/bots/api#getupdates method (directly in browser) to see the corresponding contact or chat id.
