Memer

Telegram bot which you can send meme pictures to. All collected memes are gathered into the database and broadcast as a slideshow on a web page, thanks to the built-in web server.

Thus, you can easily and cheerfully exchange pictures in a single feed. Initially, I created this project for my office, where colleagues can anonymously drop their memes (or any other pictures) to the bot, and then everyone can watch a slideshow of memes on the office TV. Bot support voting for content - thumbs up/down and for deleting meme (need 3 votes from different people).

Features

Gather your shiny memes in one place;
Browser-based meme slideshow for any big screen (tv-compatibility);
Telegram bot inside: as easy as drop any meme right in chat, also vote and report features;

Deploy

How to start

Needs https certificate support for telegram bot webhook functionality.

Starts for the first time, then shutdown. Go to data volume and edit config.json:

-- "param":"bot_api_key","value":"place_your_telegram_bot_API_TOKEN_here"

-- "param":"web_host","value":"your_domain_here.com"

-- "param":"web_port","value":"80"

-- "param":"app_site_header","value":"Frontend header here"

-- "param":"app_site_title","value":"Your site title (top left corner)"

-- "param":"app_site_botname","value":"@your_telegram_bot"

Starts again. Now telegram bot should work. Try it with /start command.
Upload few memes via telegram bot (just drop memes in chat like any photo). Restart app.
Should fully works now.
