- UI: Based on Material You to create nice looking UI themes.
- Secure: Your data is secured using robust encryption.
- Flexible Deployment: Use Docker Compose or deploy without Docker.
-
Exceptional Speed: Teldrive stands out among similar tools, thanks to its implementation in Go, a language known for its efficiency. Its performance surpasses alternatives written in Python and other languages, with the exception of Rust.
-
Enhanced Management Capabilities: Teldrive not only excels in speed but also offers an intuitive user interface for efficient file interaction which other tool lacks. Its compatibility with Rclone further enhances file management.
Important
Teldrive functions as a wrapper over your Telegram account, simplifying file access. However, users must adhere to the limitations imposed by the Telegram API. Teldrive is not responsible for any consequences arising from non-compliance with these API limits.You will be banned instantly if you misuse telegram API.

Prepare Config File
- Create the
config.tomlfile with your values. See how to fill file below.
[db]
data-source = "postgres://<db username>:<db password>@<db host>/<db name>"
[jwt]
secret = "abcd"
[tg]
app-id =
app-hash = "fwfwfwf"- Only these values are mandatory however you can change or
tweak your config see more in advanced configurations below or
teldrive --help.
[db]
data-source = "postgres://teldrive:secret@postgres_db/postgres"- For Self Hosted DB use data source as above in config.toml file.Change user and password accordingly in postgres.yml
Generate JWT
$ openssl rand -hex 64You can generate secret from here.
docker network create postgres
touch session.db
docker compose -f postgres.yml up -d #Run this only if you want to use self-hosted db
docker compose -f teldrive.yml up -d
#Image Resize Service
docker compose -f image-resizer.yml up -d- Go to http://machine_ip:8080
- Change Image resizer Host to http://machine_ip:8000 in UI settings.
Warning
Image Resizer will not work if you are accessing teldrive on localhost so use machine ip to access teldrive and image resizer.Otherwise change compose files to use host network.
Follow Below Steps
- Run one line installer.
- Add same config file as above.
- Now, run the Teldrive executable binary directly.
- You can also set up without config file.
teldrive run --tg-app-id="" --tg-app-hash="" --jwt-secret="" --db-data-source=""Read more how to setup teldrive with rclone volume driver.

- Default Channel can be selected through UI. Make sure to set it from account settings on first login.
- Multi Bots Mode is recommended to avoid flood errors and enable maximum download speed, especially if you are using downloaders like IDM and aria2c, which use multiple connections for downloads.
- To enable multi bots, generate new bot tokens from BotFather and add them through UI on first login.
- Uploads from UI will be slower due to limitations of the browser. Use modified Rclone version for teldrive.
- Files are deleted at regular interval of one hour through cron job from tg channel after its deleted from teldrive this is done so that person can recover files if he/she accidently deletes them.

For example
tg-session-filewill becomeTELDRIVE_TG_SESSION_FILEsame for all possible flags. -
See
config.sample.tomlin repo if you want to setup advanced configurations through toml file.
Warning
Keep your Password safe once generated teldrive uses same encryption as of rclone internally so you don't need to enable crypt in rclone.Teldrive generates random salt for each file part and saves in database so its more secure than rclone crypt whereas in rclone same salt value is used for all files which can be compromised easily. Enabling crypt in rclone makes UI redundant so encrypting files in teldrive internally is better way to encrypt files and more secure encryption than rclone.To encrypt files see more about teldrive rclone config.
Warning
Bots will be auto added as admin in channel if you set them from UI if it fails somehow add it manually.For newly logged session you have to wait 20-30 min to add bots to telegram channel.FRESH_CHANGE_ADMINS_FORBIDDEN error will be thrown if you try to add bots before that time frame.

- Follow Limits: Adhere to the limits imposed by Telegram servers to avoid account bans and automatic deletion of your channel.Your files will be removed from telegram servers if you try to abuse the service as most people have zero brains they will still do so good luck.
- Responsible Storage: Be mindful of the content you store on Telegram. Utilize storage efficiently and only keep data that serves a purpose.
- Data Hoarding: Avoid excessive data hoarding, as it not only violates Telegram's terms.
