Add user to channel automatically when user asks : <p>I want to make a very simple project that does this:</p>

<p>An user (let's call him John) opens a Telegram chat with my bot, and inputs this:</p>

<p>User John: /join channel1</p>

<p><strong>My bot responds adding user 'John' to Channel 'channel1'</strong></p>

<p>That's actually all I want. The problem is that Telegram BOT API does not implement any method to add users to groups. I tried to use <a href="https://github.com/vysheng/tg" rel="noreferrer">telegram-cli</a> but 'chat_add_user' only seems to accept adding user to chats, not to groups.</p>

<p>Is there any way I can add an user to a channel like that? (Without manually doing it) or should I forget about this?</p>

<p>Thank you!</p>
