PyDoxBot (alpha)

Your companion bot for referring the python documentation.

Usage

Requirements:

• Python 3.6+
• Telepot - framework for telegram bot api
• aiohttp - asynchronous HTTP Client/Server

Setup your enviroment:

$ pyenv virtualenv 3.6.0 pydoxbot
$ pyenv activate pydoxbot
(pydoxbot) $

Using pyenv and virtualenv is not a requirement, however, I highly recommend its usage for manage python and packages' versions.

Install dependencies:

$ pip install -r requirements.txt

Export environment variables:

$ export BOT_API_TOKEN=<your telegram bot token here>

For production only:

When running in production Telegram recommends that you use a webhook approach. It has some advantages over the long pooling one.

$ export BOT_SERVER_URL=<bot host public url>
$ export PORT=<port number>

Running the bot

$ python pydoxbot/core.py
