**If you are new to Bot development read [Bots: An introduction for developers](https://core.telegram.org/bots)**
|
|
|
|
### Install from Github
|
|
|
|
As an alternative to download the zip files, you can clone the github repository to get the latest improvements/fixes.
|
|
|
|
1. Go to the directory you want to install bashbot, e.g.
|
|
* your $HOME directory (install and run with your user-ID)
|
|
* /usr/local if you want to run as service
|
|
2. Run ```git clone https://github.com/topkecleon/telegram-bot-bash.git```
|
|
3. Change into the directory ```telegram-bot-bash```
|
|
4. Run ``` test/ALL-tests.sh``` and if everthing finish OK ...
|
|
5. Run ```sudo ./bashbot.sh init``` to setup the environment and enter your Bots token given by botfather.
|
|
|
|
### Update bashbot
|
|
|
|
**Note: all files including 'mycommands.sh' may overwritten, make a backup!**
|
|
|
|
1. Go to the directory where you had installed bashbot, e.g.
|
|
* your $HOME directory
|
|
* /usr/local
|
|
2. [Download latest release zip from github](https://github.com/topkecleon/telegram-bot-bash/releases)
|
|
3. Stop all running instances of bashbot
|
|
4. Extract all files to your existing bashbot dir
|
|
5. Run ```sudo ./bashbot.sh init``` to setup your environment after the update
|
|
|
|
If you modified ```commands.sh``` move your changes to ```mycommands.sh```, this avoids overwrrite of you changes on updates.
|
|
|
|
Now you can restart your bashbot instances.
|
|
|
|
### Note for BSD and MacOS
|
|
|
|
**On MacOS** you must install a more recent version of bash, as the default bash is way to old,
|
|
see e.g. [Install Bash on Mac](http://macappstore.org/bash/)
|
|
|
|
**On BSD and MacOS** I recommend to install gnu coreutils and include them in front of your PATH
|
|
environment variable before running bashbot, e.g. the gnu versions of sed, grep, find ...
|
|
|
|
In adition you must adjust the shebang line of the scripts ```bashbot.sh``` and ```json.sh``` to point to to the correct bash
|
|
or use the example script: ```examples/bash2env *.sh */*.sh```
|
|
|
|
Bashbot will stay with /bin/bash shebang, as using a fixed path is more secure than the portable /usr/bin/env variant, see
|
|
[Security Considerations](../README.md#Security-Considerations)

|
### Notes on Updates
|
|
|
|
#### removal of TMUX
|
|
From version 0.80 on TMUX is no longer needed and the bachsbot command 'attach' is deleted. Old function 'inproc'
|
|
is replaced by 'send_interactive'. send_interactive does checks if an interactive job is running internaly.
|
|
Pls check if you make use of inproc and remove it including the old checks, e.g.
|
|
```bash
|
|
if tmux ls | grep -v send | grep -q "$copname"; then inproc; fi
|
|
# or
|
|
[ checkprog ] && inproc
|
|
```
|
|
must be replaced by ```send_interactive "${CHATD[ID]}" "${MESSAGE}"```
|
|
|
|
### Do not edit commands.sh
|
|
From version 0.60 on your commands must be placed in 'mycommands.sh'. If you update from a version with your commands
|
|
in 'commands.sh' move all your commands and functions to 'mycommands.sh'.
|
|
|
|
From version 0.80 on 'commands.sh' will be overwritten on update!
|
|
|
|
#### Location of var / tmp / data dirs
|
|
From version 0.70 on the tmp dir is renamed to 'data-bot-bash' to reflect the fact that not only temporary files are stored. an existing 'tmp-bot-bash' will be automatically renamed after update.
|
|
|
|
From version 0.50 on the temporary files are no more placed in '/tmp'. instead a dedicated tmp dir is used.
|
|
|
|
#### Changes to send_keyboard in v0.6
|
|
From Version 0.60 on keybord format for ```send_keyboard``` and ```send_message "mykeyboardstartshere ..."``` was changed.
|
|
Keybords are now defined in JSON Array notation e.g. "[ \\"yes\\" , \\"no\\" ]".
|
|
This has the advantage that you can create any type of keyboard supported by Telegram.
|
|
The old format is supported for backward compatibility, but may fail for corner cases.
|
|
|
|
*Example Keyboards*:
|
|
|
|
- yes no in two rows:
|
|
- OLD format: 'yes' 'no' *(two strings)*
|
|
- NEW format: '[ "yes" ] , [ "no" ]' *(two arrays with a string)*
|
|
- new layouts made easy with NEW format:
|
|
- Yes No in one row: '[ "yes" , "no" ]'
|
|
- Yes No plus Maybe in 2.row: '[ "yes" , "no" ] , [ "maybe" ]'
|
|
- numpad style keyboard: '[ "1" , "2" , "3" ] , [ "4" , "5" , "6" ] , [ "7" , "8" , "9" ] , [ "0" ]'
