That is template for telegram bots based on next stack of technologies:
- Kotlin Coroutines
- Kotlin Serialization
- Telegram Bot API Library (by default everything is included like it was described here)
Since you have used this repo as a template you can simply run command ./gradlew run --args="BOT_TOKEN"
(of course,
replace here BOT_TOKEN
with your telegram bot token like 1234567890:ABCDEFGHIJKLM_OPqrstuvwxyz012345678
). As an
output you will get your bot information like:
ExtendedBot(id=ChatId(chatId=1234567890), username=Username(username=@username_of_your_bot), firstName=Name of bot, lastName=, canJoinGroups=(some boolean), canReadAllGroupMessages=(some boolean), supportsInlineQueries=(some boolean))
In this template there is template-like docker-compose and docker files. Besides,
there is Makefile and you may use something like make buildAndStartCompose
to start your bot.
It is important to replace "TOKEN"
in Dockerfile or remove and add some config as a volume.
There are several ways to continue:
In other words, this template (and TelegramBotAPI library) does not limit you on choosing of way to continue ๐
