How to use

Manual installation

Install

Install keel-telegram-bot using pip:

pip3 install keel-telegram-bot

Configuration

keel-telegram-bot uses container-app-conf to provide configuration via a YAML file as well as ENV variables. Have a look at the documentation about it.

See keel-telegram-bot_example.yaml for an example in this repo.

Run

Start the bot by using:

keel-telegram-bot

Docker

To run keel-telegram-bot using docker you can use the markusressel/keel-telegram-bot image from DockerHub:

sudo docker run -t \
    markusressel/keel-telegram-bot:latest

Configure the image using either environment variables, or mount the configuration file from your host system to /app/keel-telegram-bot.yaml.

Setup

This bot uses the REST api provided by Keel to interact with it and relies on the Webhook functionality to receive and forward notifications to telegram chats. On one hand keel-telegram-bot acts like the web interface, on the other hand it acts like a proxy, both combined into a single package.

To get the commands working simply provide all the necessary details of the configuration file.

To get notifications working you will have to provide the address of keel-telegram-bot to Keel using the WEBHOOK_ENDPOINT env variable. The simplest way to achieve this is by running both Keel and keel-telegram-bot on the same host and specifying http://localhost:5000/.
