My personal userbot

This project contains the source code of my (@ghnou's) userbot. It is based on Telethon, which you can install with pip3 install -U telethon --user as a regular user. It has no other dependencies.

In terms of functionality it will be not too dissimilar from Konata (bot, source). Currently it is still a work in progress.

Credentials

Visit my.telegram.org to get your API ID and API hash values. These should then be passed into the system as environment variables api_id and api_hash respectively. Provided that this bot runs in a container (such as LXC) as the only application in it, a good place to put these would be the system's /etc/environment file. Otherwise put them somewhere more specific to the bot (~/.profile for a dedicated bot user perhaps).
