Simple program for reposting Twitter posts to a Telegram target channel TARGET_CHANNEL (not chats, channel), and forwarding from those target channels to a list of target chats TARGET_CHAT_IDS.
It also supports forwarding of all other posts (besides just tweets) in to the TARGET_CHAT_IDS chats. All posts from the channel ids added in the REPOST_IDS env variable will be forwarded to TARGET_CHAT_IDS. The TARGET_CHANNEL id also must be added to support forwarding of posts which were not reposted Twitter posts already sent by the bot
To set up your own Telegram bot, add it to a Telegram chat and get the chat_id. Add all necessary env variables in a .env file or otherwise. It gets all recent (the last 20) tweets and saves in local memory.
Twitter accounts and target chats can be input as comma separated values
