koval-telegram-bot

Telegram bot for Japanese to Ukrainian transliteration using my wana-kana-rust fork. Built with teloxide. Supports inline queries.

Setting up your environment

1. Download Rust.
2. Create a new bot using @Botfather to get a token in the format 123456789:blablabla.
3. Initialise the TELOXIDE_TOKEN environmental variable to your token:

# Unix-like
$ export TELOXIDE_TOKEN=<Your token here>

# Windows command line
$ set TELOXIDE_TOKEN=<Your token here>

# Windows PowerShell
$ $env:TELOXIDE_TOKEN=<Your token here>

4. Make sure that your Rust compiler is up to date (teloxide currently requires rustc at least version 1.68):

# If you're using stable
$ rustup update stable
$ rustup override set stable

# If you're using nightly
$ rustup update nightly
$ rustup override set nightly

5. Run cargo new my_bot, enter the directory and put these lines into your Cargo.toml:

[dependencies]
teloxide = { version = "0.12", features = ["macros"] }
log = "0.4"
pretty_env_logger = "0.5"
tokio = { version =  "1.8", features = ["rt-multi-thread", "macros"] }
