exteragram-alib
A reactive declarative UI and threading utility library for exteraGram / Telegram plugins.
Decision gist · record as of 2026-08-14
Yes, if you are developing plugins for the exteraGram Android Telegram client. The library eliminates boilerplate for UI construction and state management specific to that platform. For general-purpose reactive UI or non-exteraGram projects, it is not applicable. No security issues detected and low install friction make it a straightforward add to an exteraGram plugin's dependencies.AI-flagged interpretation of the facts on this page — verify before relying
Before you install
- Requires Python 3.8 or later; designed for use within exteraGram plugin environment.
- Low install friction with no runtime dependencies.
- Active maintenance status and recent release history suggest ongoing support.

What it is and what it does
exteragram-alib is a UI and utility library for building plugins for the exteraGram Android Telegram client. It provides reactive state binding (State class), declarative UI widgets (Label, Button, Field, Toggle, Slider, etc.), layout containers (VBox, HBox, Card), and helper utilities for threading, Java reflection, local JSON storage, event dispatching, and network operations like caching and rate-limiting.
The library is designed to integrate directly into exteraGram's plugin system via the `__requirements__` metadata. Developers use it to construct settings screens and interactive interfaces that automatically update when underlying state changes, without manual UI refresh calls. It abstracts Android UI patterns into Python classes and handles the bridge to the host application's rendering layer.
Use it for
- Build settings screens for exteraGram plugins with toggles, sliders, and text fields that react to state changes.
- Create interactive plugin UIs using declarative widgets and layout containers without direct Android API calls.
- Manage reactive state across plugin UI components so changes propagate automatically to all bound widgets.
- Implement plugin-specific dialogs, bottom sheets, and event-driven interactions within the Telegram client.
- Cache and rate-limit network requests from plugin code using built-in network decorators.
