trapBot

Telegram bot for our household.

Running the bot

We're running the bot with process manager 2

1. Create .env file which contains necessary tokens
   • BOT_TOKEN: Your Telegram Bot token which you can get from @BotFather
   • SPEEDTEST_TOKEN: Token for fast-speedtest-api. Check how to get app token? section.
2. Deploy the app with pm2, using pm2 start trapbot.js
3. You can later update the bot with npm run deploy, which pulls the latest version from git and restarts pm2 process
