Originally a simple group management bot with multiple admin features, it has evolved, becoming extremely modular and simple to use.
Can be found on telegram as Natalie.

A huge thanks to Paul for creating Marie! Without his work we wouldn't have started off and evolved to where we are now!
We'd also like to thank everyone involved in helping Paul create Marie!
Once you've setup your database and your configuration (see below) is complete, simply run:
python3 -m natalie_bot
Please make sure to use python3.7.4, as I cannot guarantee everything will work as expected on older python versions!
Make sure to use python-telegram-bot version 12.4.2 as older version will not work anymore.
Inside the sample_config.py you will find a SPAMWATCH_TOKEN variable. If you want your chats protected by SpamWatch request a key from that site and add it in.
SPAMWATCH_TOKEN: Enables SpamWatch protection in your group chats.
Install the necessary python dependencies by moving to the project directory and running:
pip3 install -r requirements.txt.
This will install all necessary python packages.
If you wish to use a database-dependent module (eg: locks, notes, userinfo, users, filters, welcomes), you'll need to have a database installed on your system. I use postgres, so I recommend using it for optimal compatibility.
In the case of postgres, this is how you would set up a the database on a debian/ubuntu system. Other distributions may vary.
- install postgresql:
sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install postgresql
- change to the postgres user:
sudo su - postgres
- create a new database user (change YOUR_USER appropriately):
createuser -P -s -e YOUR_USER
This will be followed by you needing to input your password.
- create a new database table:
createdb -O YOUR_USER YOUR_DB_NAME
Change YOUR_USER and YOUR_DB_NAME appropriately.
- finally:
psql YOUR_DB_NAME -h YOUR_HOST YOUR_USER
This will allow you to connect to your database via your terminal. By default, YOUR_HOST should be 0.0.0.0:5432.
You should now be able to build your database URI. This will be:
sqldbtype://username:pw@hostname:port/db_name
Replace sqldbtype with whichever db youre using (eg postgres, mysql, sqllite, etc) repeat for your username, password, hostname (localhost?), port (5432?), and db name.
