Telegram bot for ethOS!

Since the bot now tracks the chat id's in a file, even if it restarts, we can alert users of downtime, or possible issues with the bot itself by sending status messages (not implemented yet).

Getting Started

• Just add ethogramBot to the group, or chat it up directly.
• run /start [PANEL_ID] to monitor [PANEL_ID].ethosdistro.com

Installation

If you'd like to deploy your own version of this bot, please follow this rough guide:

• Use BotFather from Telegram to create a bot, and acquire TELEGRAM_TOKEN
• Clone this repo on a server, such as DigitialOcean. (Don't use heroku, since this bot relies on file persistence)
• cd into the repo root
• Create ethogram.json, as follows:

{
  "TELEGRAM_TOKEN": "[YOUR_TELEGRAM_TOKEN_FROM ABOVE]",
  "WEBHOOK_HOST": "[HOSTNAME_FOR_YOUR_SERVER]"
}

• Create certs directory, and add required SSL files for https webhook support: (TODO: Add more details)
  • cert.pem
  • private.key
• Now, you have two options:
  • Using Docker:
    • Build the docker image docker build -t ethogram .
    • Run a container docker run -d -p 8443:8443 -v "$(pwd)":/app ethogram
  • Execute directly:
    • Install python3
    • Install requirements using pip3 install -r requirements.txt
    • Run using python3 driver.py

It begins well after doing this and slows

File-based persistence

Currently, if the bot process dies, all the monitors will be lost forever. Need to add some persistent backing to recover from restarts.

Cleanup blocked monitors

If a user uses the bot to monitor stuff, that will add a chat_id -> [Monitor] entry in the bot object monitors object. However, if a user then proceeds to "block" the bot, or simply removes the bot from the chat/group, we get "blocked" error. At this point, we should remove the entry.

Move to Webhook handler

Setup Travis

Need to run tests for PRs, achieve higher coverage, ... etc.

how to install ? where to place these files?

Mining pool alerts

I would personally like to be alerted when a mining pool (ethermine/nanopool) makes a deposit to my account. The problem is, I am not yet sure if this is within the scope of ethogram, or would it bloat the bot unnecessarily..

General rule is, it can be added, and then moved to a new location if a problem arises.
