HttpClientHandler Support about telegram.bots HOT 2 CLOSED

It's good and solved my issue, thanks!!

Hello! Thank you for considering Telegram.Bots for your bot project.

In this library, the ideal way of initializing the BotClient is through the dependency injection mechanism. The AddBotClient extension method returns an IHttpClientBuilder which you can then use to setup your proxy, I imagine. I say "I imagine" because I have never set this up myself and so do not fully know whether this will work but I kept the option open nonetheless and here is what I think you can do to get your web proxy working as well:

using System;
using Microsoft.Extensions.DependencyInjection;
using Telegram.Bots;

IServiceProvider provider = new ServiceCollection()
  .AddBotClient("<bot-token>")
  .ConfigurePrimaryHttpMessageHandler(() => new SocketsHttpHandler
  {
    Proxy = new WebProxy(Host: "<your-host>", Port: 1234),
    UseProxy = true
  })
  .Services
  .BuildServiceProvider();

IBotClient bot = provider.GetRequiredService<IBotClient>();

You can further add more HttpClientHandler by calling AddHttpMessageHandler accordingly.

Do let me know if this resolves your issue and I can setup a decent example in the README about using the web proxy then. You can also tell me what you wrote so I can use that as inspiration for the example that can be in the README for future users who also need a web proxy.
