TLDR

  2. Install PostgreSQL if you didnt
  3. Create an empty database 'tgbooru' in PSQL owned to your user

  5. npm i tgbooru
  6. export TOKEN=<TOKEN_FROM_BOTFATHER>
  7. npx tgbooru
  8. To stop the bot type to console with it stop and press enter

Preparing

  1. Create your bot via @BotFather, it will guide you on that
  2. The bot uses DBMS PostgreSQL. Install if you dont have it
  3. Create a database in PSQL for you bot
  4. The bot works using node.js. Install it

Installation

npm i tgbooru

Launch

The bot requires some environment variables. Here is a list of them:
TOKEN – bot token from @BotFather
DBURI – URI-string for connection to PSQL in format postgres://<USER>:<PASSWORD>@<HOST>/<DATABASE>:<PORT>

Instead of the environment you can set launch parameters in a file config.toml.

After setup the environment run

npx tgbooru

If everything went well, you will see something like this in the console:

> tgbooru@1.0.0 start
> node index.js

Bot @myboorubot started.
> _

Control

After the launch, there are available commands stop & reload for safe stop and restart respectively.

Usage

To see how the bot works, you can refer to @myboorubot.
So far, the bot doesnt use any query language, just returning media with all given tags.

Support
