📭 Telegram notifications

The bot can send notifications to your phone on successful and unsuccessful commands (e.g. sendTeamsMining, reinforceDefense, reinforceAttack, etc).

Follow these instructions for setup:

1. Open Telegram.
2. Enter @Botfather in the search tab and choose this bot.
3. Choose or type the /start command and send it.
4. Choose or type the /newbot command and send it. And follow Botfather's instructions.
5. Take a note of your token value e.g. 11112222:AAASBBBSDASD. This is your TELEGRAM_API_KEY. And keep this private!
6. Enter @your-newly-created-bot-name in the search tab and choose this bot.
7. Choose or type the /start command and send it.
8. Enter @username_to_id_bot in the search tab and choose this bot.
9. Choose or type the /start command and send it.
10. Take a note of your ID e.g. P.S. Your ID: 1122334455. This is your TELEGRAM_CHAT_ID.

Then, set your .env file:

1. set NOTIFICATION_IM=1 and TELEGRAM_ENABLE=1
2. set TELEGRAM_API_KEY and TELEGRAM_CHAT_ID
3. run python3 -m src.tests.testSendIM

If everything worked fine, you should receive a Telegram message on your newly created bot.

Notify multiple users at once

To send Telegram notifications to more than one user, using same bot:

1. Create a group chat with the other person.
2. Add the bot to that chat group.
3. Configure the bot with the chat ID of the chat group.
