MasterBot

Control bots on your server. Easiest way to manage multiple bots. Works for any .py scripts/bots, not just telegram bots

Functions:

1. Pull the latest commit and restart the bot
2. Gets current statistics of the server
3. Notifies admins when a bot is either killed/stopped

How to deploy?

1. Clone the repo git clone https://github.com/GauthamramRavichandran/MasterBot

2. Change directory

   cd MasterBot

3. Create a new virtual environment

   virtualenv env

4. Activate the virtual environment by,

   source env/bin/activate

5. Install the requirements,

   pip3 install -r requirements.txt

6. Fill in the /const/CONFIG.py file

7. Place the cert.pem file if bot wants to use webhook method

8. Start the master bot, python main.py

Assumptions

1. All the bots should have a separate virtualenv (called env) within its folder
2. The last argument should be the alias (only alias will be used, not the name of the .py file)

⚠️ Known Issue

Once the masterbot restarts anyother program, the new program will be under the masterbot process tree. If masterbot killed for any reason, all the programs started via this bot will be terminated too.

One way to safe kill this bot is to send SIGTERM signal, which will terminate this bot while preserving its children to continue execution.

How to send SIGTERM signal?

1. Open htop
2. Locate this bot by searching (F3 key)
3. F9 to kill > select SIGTERM
