Simple dockerized python Telegram Bot to remind your colleagues to pay their debts.
The only configuration required in order to get started is to create a .env file with your Telegram Bot Token (TELEGRAM_TOKEN), the Chat IDs where you intend to use it (TELEGRAM_CHATS), and the User IDs you want to set as Admins for your new Bot, to access configuration functions (TELEGRAM_ADMINS).
For the last two configuration variables, even if there's just one ID, make sure to pass them as arrays.
If you don't have a Telegram Token yet, you'll need one through Telegram's BotFather. See details on Bot creation here.
Now that we have a Telegram Token for our bot, the configuration is as easy as:
$ echo "TELEGRAM_TOKEN=0123456789:AbCd1e2f3G..." >> .env
$ echo "TELEGRAM_CHATS=[1111,2222]" >> .env
$ echo "TELEGRAM_ADMINS=[3333]" >> .env
To deploy this Bot in your own environment after configuring the Telegram Token, you just have to execute:
$ docker-compose up -d
