GO 2 Hal is a devops automation telegram bot which automates a number of repetitive tasks, while also providing the team with insight into your systems.
The bot consists of a number of individual models, so if you want to create your own bot, its as simple as creating your main.go and choosing the modules.
the main.go provided here uses all the modules, wrapped in gokit proetheus instrumenting and gokit logging.
Refer to the readme.md for each Module
