tg-broadcast

한국어 문서 보기

tg-broadcast is a Telegram broadcast & auto response script (a.k.a. robot) for telegram-cli(unofficial).

There are a few Telegram bot scripts out there. Go find one that fits you. If you want to broadcast messages with Telegram, I recommend to use this script.

tg-broadcast is tested on telegram-cli 1.3.1.

GitHub repository: https://github.com/bakyeono/tg-broadcast

Features

Broadcast

You can broadcast to multiple subscribers. Your friends can subscribe or unsubscribe by simply sending a message to you.

Scripted response

Any stdout omitting program can be used to send reply message. Adding new response rules is easy.

DBMS / no DBMS

Use SQLite, MySQL, MariaDB, or just text files for subscriber management.

Install

Install telegram-cli (if you didn't already)

Clone and compile telegram-cli. Follow the instruction in telegram-cli(unofficial) page.

$ cd ~
$ git clone --recursive git@github.com:vysheng/tg.git
$ cd tg
$ sudo apt-get install libreadline-dev libconfig-dev libssl-dev lua5.2 liblua5.2-dev libevent-dev libjansson-dev libpython-dev
$ ./configure
$ make

Done? Copy the compiled binary and key file into ~/telegram-cli

$ mkdir ~/telegram-cli
$ cp bin/telegram-cli tg-server.pub ~/telegram-cli

Now you can run telegram-cli. Run it first time and do the authorization.

$ cd ~/telegram-cli
$ ./telegram-cli

Type "help" on the telegram-cli prompt to see available commands.

Install tg-broadcast

Clone this repo into your home.

$ cd ~
$ git clone git@github.com:bakyeono/tg-broadcast.git
$ cd tg-broadcast

Install SQLite3. (Recommended. If you don't want use SQLite3, see config.lua.)

$ sudo apt-get install sqlite3

Run

Now you can run the script:

$ ~/tg-broadcast/test   # run REPL mode
$ ~/tg-broadcast/start  # run daemon mode
$ ~/tg-broadcast/stop   # kill running telegram-cli process

When the script is running, send help message to yourself and you'll get this reply:

help        : This help
ip          : Server's IP address
time        : Server's time
calendar    : Calendar
weather CITY: Weather for CITY
subscribe   : Subscribe my news
unsubscribe : Unsubscribe my news
-------------------------
(admin only)
broadcast   : Force broadcast now
notify      : Send a message to subscribers
safequit    : Turn off robot

Now edit config.lua to edit broadcast message and add your own commands to the robot.
