## Customize bashbots environment
This section describe how you can customize bashbot to your needs by setting environment variables.
### Change file locations
In standard setup bashbot is self containing, this means you can place 'telegram-bot-bash' any location
and run it from there. All files - programm, config, data etc - will reside in 'telegram-bot-bash'.
If you want to have other locations for config, data etc, define and export the following environment variables.
**Note: all specified directories and files must exist or running 'bashbot.sh' will fail.**
#### BASHBOT_ETC
Location of the config files 'token', 'botadmin', 'botacl' ...
```bash
unset BASHBOT_ETC # keep in telegram-bot-bash (default)
export BASHBOT_ETC "" # keep in telegram-bot-bash
export BASHBOT_ETC "/etc/bashbot" # unix like config location
export BASHBOT_ETC "/etc/bashbot/bot1" # multibot configuration bot 1
export BASHBOT_ETC "/etc/bashbot/bot2" # multibot configuration bot 2
```
e.g. /etc/bashbot
#### BASHBOT_VAR
Location of runtime data files 'data-bot-bash', 'count', downloaded files ...
```bash
unset BASHBOT_VAR # keep in telegram-bot-bash (default)
export BASHBOT_VAR "" # keep in telegram-bot-bash
export BASHBOT_VAR "/var/spool/bashbot" # unix like config location
export BASHBOT_VAR "/var/spool/bashbot/bot1" # multibot configuration bot 1
export BASHBOT_VAR "/var/spool/bashbot/bot2" # multibot configuration bot 2
```
#### BASHBOT_COMMANDS
Full path to bash script containing your commands, default: './commands.sh', must end with '.sh'
```bash
unset BASHBOT_COMMANDS # telegram-bot-bash/commands.sh (default)
export BASHBOT_COMMANDS "" # telegram-bot-bash/commands.sh
export BASHBOT_COMMANDS "/etc/bashbot/commands.sh" # unix like config location
export BASHBOT_COMMANDS "/etc/bashbot/bot1/commands.sh" # multibot configuration bot 1
export BASHBOT_COMMANDS "/etc/bashbot/bot2/commands.sh" # multibot configuration bot 2
```
#### BASHBOT_JSONSH
Full path to JSON.sh script, default: './JSON.sh/JSON.sh', must end with '/JSON.sh'.
```bash
unset BASHBOT_JSONSH # telegram-bot-bash/JSON.sh/JSON.sh (default)
export BASHBOT_JSONSH "" # telegram-bot-bash/JSON.sh/JSON.sh
export BASHBOT_JSONSH "/usr/local/bin/JSON.sh" # installed in /usr/local/bin
```
### Change config values
#### BASHBOT_DECODE
Bashbot offers two variants for decoding JSON UTF format to UTF-8. By default bashbot uses 'json.encode' if python is installed.
If 'BASHBOT_DECODE' is set to any value (not undefined or not empty) the bash only implementation will be used.
```bash
unset BASHBOT_DECODE # autodetect python (default)
export BASHBOT_DECODE "" # autodetect python
export BASHBOT_DECODE "yes" # force internal
export BASHBOT_DECODE "no" # also force internal!
```
#### BASHBOT_SLEEP
Instead of polling permanently or with a fixed delay, bashbot offers a simple adaptive polling.
If messages are recieved bashbot polls with no dealy. If no messages are availible bashbot add 100ms delay
for every poll until the maximum of BASHBOT_SLEEP ms.
```bash
unset BASHBOT_SLEEP # 5000ms (default)
export BASHBOT_SLEEP "" # 5000ms
export BASHBOT_SLEEP "1000" # 1s maximum sleep
export BASHBOT_SLEEP "10000" # 10s maximum sleep
export BASHBOT_SLEEP "1" # values < 1000 disables sleep (not recommended)
```
### Testet location configs
**Note: Environment variables are not stored, you must setup them before every call to bashbot.sh, e.g. from a script.**
#### simple Unix like config, mainly for one bot. bashbot is in '/usr/local/telegram-bot-bash'
```bash
# Note: all dirs and files must exist!
export BASHBOT_ETC "/etc/bashbot"
export BASHBOT_VAR "/var/spool/bashbot"
/usr/local/telegram-bot-bash/bashbot.sh start
```
#### Unix like config, mainly for one bot. bashbot.sh is in '/usr/bin'
```bash
# Note: all dirs and files must exist!
export BASHBOT_ETC "/etc/bashbot"
export BASHBOT_VAR "/var/spool/bashbot"
export BASHBOT_JSONSH "/var/spool/bashbot"
export BASHBOT_COMMANDS "/etc/bashbot/commands.sh
/usr/local/bin/bashbot.sh start
```
#### simple multibot config bashbot is in '/usr/local/telegram-bot-bash'
```bash
# config for running Bot 1
# Note: all dirs and files must exist!
export BASHBOT_ETC "./mybot1"
export BASHBOT_VAR "./mybot1"
export BASHBOT_COMMANDS "./mybot1/commands.sh
/usr/local/telegram-bot-bash/bashbot.sh start
```
```bash
# config for running Bot 2
# Note: all dirs and files must exist!
export BASHBOT_ETC "./mybot2"
export BASHBOT_VAR "./mybot2"
export BASHBOT_COMMANDS "./mybot2/commands.sh
/usr/local/telegram-bot-bash/bashbot.sh start
```
