Botstrology

🪐 Telegram bot that sends the horoscope for the day on request: it generates a forecast by combining four pieces of sentences. 🪐

Technologies

• Python
• pytelegrambotapi

Description

You start the bot with the /start command, the bot asks you whether you want today's horoscope, you should send давай, and choose your zodiac sign from the selection. The bot will then generate a random forecast and send it to you.

Environment variables

The horoscope_generator/handlers.py uses the TOKEN variable - this is your bot's token, you can get it from the @BotFather bot right after your bot's registration. Keep it in a separate location.

2. Create a virtual environment in your project's directory
3. Run the virtual environment and install the requirements
