Telegram Bot template

This is a template for a Telegram Bot written in Go. It uses a code-generated wrapper to interact with the Telegram Bot API.

Start coding

1. Talk to BotFather and create a bot. You will get a token, keep it safe.
2. For development purposes, we recommend running this with a tool such as ngrok. Simply install ngrok, copy ngrok.dist.yaml to ngrok.yaml, set your authtoken, and run ngrok start --config=ngrok.yaml bot_webhook web_app.
3. Use this template to create a repo for your bot, clone it to your local dev environment.
4. Copy config.dist.yaml to config.yaml, fill in your bot token and other parameters.
5. Run go run . to start the bot.
6. Then, simply send /start to your bot; if it replies, you've successfully set up your bot!
