In this repository you can find the Telegram version of the Bobby B Bot.
Simply mention the bot's name (Bobby B) in your channel after adding it via this link, and the bot will reply with a random quote.
- Create a virtual environment and activate it (this is optional but when working with Python, I cannot recommend it enough) or create a root folder that will hold all the code;
- Clone discord repository inside this virtual enviroment folder (let's call it 'root') and then clone utils repository. The final structure should be somewhat similar to this:
+ root
└───+ telegram
│ |-- telegram_bot.py
└───+ utils
|-- __init__.py
|-- core.py
|-- logging_config.ini
|-- quotes.json
|-- triggers.json
- Run command
pip install -r requirements.txt
in telegram directory (this should install the requirements for utils as well, otherwise, you can also run the command in utils folder); - Done, you are ready to configure it.
$ python -m venv <venv_name>
$ cd venv_name
$ source bin/activate
(venv_name) $ git clone https://github.com/bobby-b-bot/telegram.git
(venv_name) $ git clone https://github.com/bobby-b-bot/utils.git
(venv_name) $ cd telegram
(venv_name) $ pip install -r requirements.txt
- Create and maintain the .env file for environment variables in root discord folder (ENV = 'TEST' or 'PROD' and Telegram token in variable TOKEN)
- Create and mantain a logging_config.ini file in utils folder for logging configuration (see documentation);
- Run the bot (
python telegram_bot.py
) - Have fun!
