Configuration file

Create a config.json JSON file and set up the following parameters:

(sample)

{
	"telegram-token": "such:sicret-token",
	"telegram-botname": "DogeTip",
	"rpc-uri": "http://127.0.0.1:23505",
	"rpc-user": "ruxtip",
	"rpc-psw": "rxcpassword",
	"admins": [-0, 0],
	"spam_filter": [10, 2]
}
  • telegram-token: Your bot's unique and secret token.

    Create a new bot by talking with @BotFather to get one.

  • rpc-uri: Address and port for the daemon.

    We do not advice to expose the port to external network. Please, be cautious.

  • rpc-user, rpc-psw: Username and password for the daemon.

    You can set them in the bitcoin.conf file

  • admins: An array of administrators' Telegram UserID (as integers).

    You can send /user_id to @ContremaitreBot to know your UserID.

  • spam_filter: An array of two integers. The first value is the number of actions a user can perform in a period of time, the 2nd value defines that period of time in seconds.

    "spam_filter": [5, 60] means that users cannot perform more than 5 actions per minute.

RXC daemon configuration

A ruxcrypto.conf file is needed in data directory.

(sample)

server=1
daemon=1
rpcuser=dogetip
rpcpassword=suchpassword
pid=dogecoind.pid
rpcallowip=127.0.0.1
rpcconnect=127.0.0.1

  • Add service commands like /pause (pauses the bot for everyone), and maybe some commands to check the health of the daemon / wallet.
  • Populate strings.json
  • Add spam protection
  • Add some admin commands to check the health of the daemon / wallet
  • Per-user language
  • Show fiat equivalent for balance
  • Add /price and /marketcap commands
