Telebash

A modular Telegram wrapper/bot, written on Bash

This wrapper allows you to easily interact with Telegram bot APIs.

Sourcing telebash.sh will give you the command telegram, which you can use together with all available API methods (https://core.telegram.org/bots/api#available-methods).

You can also use this wrapper as a bot (the script will process every new update got with getUpdates method); a module manager and some modules are provided.

Usage

Setup

Launch setup.sh to install all the dependencies
Copy example_variables.sh to variables.sh
Put a bot token in variables.sh
Edit additional variables in variables.sh

Use as a wrapper (do stuff from CLI or other scripts)

Source all functions and variables with
```
source telebash.sh
```

Use as a bot:

Launch the bot by typing
```
./telebash.sh
```

Features

General

Easy to understand (after all, it's Bash, no?)

Wrapper

A wrapper with multiple functions is included to send and receive informations from Telegram

Bot

Module-based, so you can add and remove modules as you like

Modules included:

animated_emoji | Send an animated emoji
echo | Repeat what you say
info | Core module that provides basic functionalities that you would expect in a Telegram bot
weather | Get weather updates of a city

Note: Modules list is kept low since I'm more interested on using this as a wrapper
