Code is written in TypeScript and deployed using docker-compose.

NOTE: at this point I won't help with any issues regarding setup or usage.

• docker && docker-compose

.env:

BOT_TOKEN=123456:ABCDEFGHIJKKL
WEBHOOK=false
WEBHOOK_ADDR=bot.example.com
WEBHOOK_PORT=80
CUSTOM_CERT=false
FILE_PROXY=false
FILE_PROXY_PORT=8080
FILE_PROXY_ADDR=files.example.com
DEVELOPER_ID=12345678
DEBUG=false
LANGUAGE=Eng
MOTD_ID=1
MOTD_TXT=Hi, thanks for still using the bot!

docker-compose.yml:

version: '2'
services:
    node_ts3bot:
        image: hexxone/telegram-ts3bot
        container_name: node_ts3bot
        hostname: node_ts3bot
        restart: unless-stopped
        ports:
            - 8443:80 # can be removed if not using webhook
            - 8080:8080 # can be removed if not using fileProxy
        volumes:
            - ./data:/app/data # bot settings storage directory
            - ./.env:/app/.env # all possible environment variables (change BOT_TOKEN !)

then

docker-compose up -d

If you wish, You can create your own language file.

Just copy: src/msg/msg_en.ts to e.g.: src/msg/msg_it.ts (for italian) and translate all the strings (using deepl.com or google?).

Feel free to open PR with new and/or fixed translations :)

If you want to understand and improve or extend the bot I recommend first reading the "config" comments and further digging your way through it. The code is mostly commented => Hence no documentation :)

Here is the general structure:

• ACTION

  are usually text-inputs, needed for account setup etc., which can't be done inline. You find them in src/action/

• CLASS

  if you think you need an additional static classes or functions, feel free to add them here: src/class/

• COMMAND

  create your own commands functions by placing a new *.ts file into the /command/ folder. Take a look at: src/command/aaa_sample.ts

• HANDLER

  are the functions which are called when a Telegram message is received. You find them in src/handler/

• MSG

  are the translations / languages which are used in the bot. You find them in src/msg/

• OBJECT

  are the objects which are used in the bot. You find them in src/object/
