telegram bot in go (using webhook)

Beginner's guide for telegram bot

How to make the best use of tele-go-m

• Well why dont u start with botfather . He is the one to meet if you need any bots around here 🙃

What you already did that ? Huh well i guess that all there is then...

We have added the basic backend code to run your bot, you can clone this repo and use it as you'r own

git clone https://github.com/Co-Science/tele-go-m.git
cd tele-go-m

But before you begin create a .env file to the root directory and add your bot api key for testing:

TOKEN=<add your_bot_token here>
PORT=3000

Now run the code:

go run main.go

• The program now listens on port 3000 for some request.

• Make use of ngrok to test your bot locally.

ngrok http 3000

• Now set your bots webhook to that url

https://api.telegram.org/bot<your_bot_token>/setWebhook?url=<your_https_url_ngrok_provides>

| this is essentially connecting your bot with the telegram server through tele-go-m code

Congratss Your bot is now ready to chat with you. Type '/' commands to start chatting.

• To remove the webhook url just type

https://api.telegram.org/bot<your_bot_token>/deleteWebhook
