Telegram Google Image Bot

How to make it work

Contact BotFather on Telegram (https://telegram.me/botfather) via private message and write the '/newbot' command. BotFather will ask you for a name (anything) and a username (globally unique). In return you will get an API token, looking like this:

110201543:AAHdqTcvCH1vGWJxfSeofSAs0K5PALDsaw

This token is used to authenticate requests to the bot API.

Run docker container

Automated build on Docker Hub is available.

docker run -i --name googleimagebot stanislavb/telegram-googleimagebot 110201543:AAHdqTcvCH1vGWJxfSeofSAs0K5PALDsaw

Build docker image by yourself

Handy instructions are in the Makefile.

make build
TOKEN=110201543:AAHdqTcvCH1vGWJxfSeofSAs0K5PALDsaw make run
