Instructions to create your own version of this bot

  • Clone the Repo.
  • Install the requirements.txt using pip.
  • Create a new Telegram Bot using BotFather in telegram.
  • Create a Firebase Realtime Database for handling subscribers and storing notifications cache.
  • Make a file named .env in the root folder and add the line TOKEN=XXXXXX (Your telegram bot token).
  • Also add the firebase credentials to the .env file.
  • Run bot.py in your system and you'll see that the bot starts responding to commands on Telegram.
  • Your bot should work as long as you have bot.py running.
  • You can host it to Heroku to run forever using instructions at https://github.com/michaelkrukov/heroku-python-script.
