Manage VPS via Telegram

Telegram

Shell script to send commands to your VPS via Telegram

Installation

Edit the settings part:

#settings
yourid='123456789'
botid='bot0000000000'
apikey='XXXX_XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX'
tmpfolder="/tmptelegram"
tmpfile="lastmessageid"
#end settings

Add the script in a crontab

Example:

*/1 05-23 * * * /root/telegram/v2/cmd2.sh

And put in your /bin a script that allows to answer (edit also the settings part)

#!/bin/bash
sleep 2
yourid='123456789'
botid='bot0000000000'
apikey='XXXX_XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX'
curl -s "https://api.telegram.org/$botid:$apikey/sendMessage?chat_id=$yourid&text=$1"

Usage

V1 of the script (spaghetti code) was mostly used to debug a small VPS during (mysterious) DDOS periods Or to be able to send me the new IP of my VPS by message (yes, I tested a lot of hosters, some very obscure)
