## Getting Started
2019-05-16 14:43:44 +00:00
2020-12-29 09:18:41 +00:00
The Bots default commands are in `commands.sh`. Do not edit this file! Instead copy `mycommands.sh.clean` to `mycommands.sh` and place you commands there.
Have a look at `mycommands.sh.dist` for examples on how to write commands or overwrite existing ones. See [Best practices](5_practice.md) for more information.
2019-05-16 14:43:44 +00:00
2020-12-29 09:18:41 +00:00
Once you're done with editing run the Bot with `./bashbot.sh start`. To stop running the Bot use `./bashbot.sh stop`
2019-05-16 14:43:44 +00:00
2020-12-29 09:18:41 +00:00
If something doesn't work as expected, debug with `./bashbot.sh startbot DEBUG &`, where DEBUG can be 'debug', 'xdebug' or 'xdebugx'.
2019-05-16 14:43:44 +00:00
See [Bashbot Development](7_develop.md) for more information.
2020-12-29 09:18:41 +00:00
To use the functions provided in this script in other scripts simply source bashbot: `source bashbot.sh source`. see [Expert Use](8_expert.md#Expert-use)

THe message contatains all characters so far typed from the user.

## Usage of bashbot functions
#### sending messages
2021-02-02 19:33:22 +00:00
To send messages use the `send_xxx_message` functions.
To insert line brakes in a message place `\n` in the text.
2019-05-16 14:43:44 +00:00
To send regular text without any markdown use:
```bash
send_normal_message "${CHAT[ID]}" "lol"
2019-05-16 14:43:44 +00:00
```
To send text with markdown:
```bash
send_markdown_message "${CHAT[ID]}" "lol *bold*"
```
To send text with html:
```bash
send_html_message "${CHAT[ID]}" "lol <b>bold</b>"
```
2021-02-02 19:33:22 +00:00
To forward messages use the `forward` function:
2019-05-16 14:43:44 +00:00
```bash
forward "${CHAT[ID]}" "from_chat_id" "message_id"
```
If your Bot is Admin in a Chat you can delete every message, if not you can delete only your messages.
To delete a message with a known ${MESSAGE[ID]} you can simple use:
```bash
delete_message "${CHAT[ID]}" "${MESSAGE[ID]}"
```
#### send_message
In addition there is a universal send_massage function which can output any type of message.
This function is used to process output from external scrips like interactive chats or background jobs.
**For safety and performance reasons I recommend to use send_xxxx_message functions above for sending messages**
```bash
send_message "${CHAT[ID]}" "lol"
```
To send html or markdown put the following strings before the text, depending on the parsing mode you want to enable:
```bash
send_message "${CHAT[ID]}" "markdown_parse_mode lol *bold*"
```
```bash
send_message "${CHAT[ID]}" "html_parse_mode lol <b>bold</b>"
```
This function also allows a third parameter that disables additional function parsing (for safety use this when reprinting user input):
```bash
send_message "${CHAT[ID]}" "lol" "safe"
```
**See also [Interactive chats](3_advanced.md#Interactive-Chats)**
#### Send files, locations, keyboards.
2021-01-06 16:22:25 +00:00
To send local files or URL's (photo, video, voice, sticker, documents) use the `send_file` function.
2019-05-16 14:43:44 +00:00
```bash
2021-01-06 16:22:25 +00:00
send_file "${CHAT[ID]}" "/home/user/dog.jpg" "Lool" "photo"
send_file "${CHAT[ID]}" "https://images-na.ssl-images-amazon.com/images/I/81DQ0FpoSNL._AC_SL1500_.jpg"
2019-05-16 14:43:44 +00:00
```
2021-02-02 19:33:22 +00:00
To send custom keyboards use the `send_keyboard` function:
2019-05-16 14:43:44 +00:00
```bash
2020-06-23 14:35:50 +00:00
send_keyboard "${CHAT[ID]}" "Text that will appear in chat?" '[ "Yep" , "No" ]' # note the single quotes!
send_keyboard "${CHAT[ID]}" "Text that will appear in chat?" "[ \\"Yep\\" , \\"No\\" ]" # within double quotes you must escape the inside double quots
2019-05-16 14:43:44 +00:00
```
2021-02-02 19:33:22 +00:00
To send locations use the `send_location` function:
2019-05-16 14:43:44 +00:00
```bash
send_location "${CHAT[ID]}" "Latitude" "Longitude"
```
2021-02-02 19:33:22 +00:00
To send venues use the `send_venue` function:
2019-05-16 14:43:44 +00:00
```bash
send_venue "${CHAT[ID]}" "Latitude" "Longitude" "Title" "Address" "optional foursquare id"
```
2021-02-02 19:33:22 +00:00
To send a chat action use the `send_action` function.
2019-05-16 14:43:44 +00:00
