a bot to make an anonymous group chat on telegram, powered by coffea

Available as @secretloungebot on telegram. (BETA)

Setup

git clone https://github.com/6697/secretlounge
cd secretlounge
npm install
npm install [email protected]

(the last line is a workaround for an npm bug that makes it think beta9 is higher than beta18)

Config

Create a config.json file:

{
  "protocol": "telegram",
  "token": "PUT_YOUR_TELEGRAM_TOKEN_FROM_BOTFATHER_HERE"
}

Running

Use this for production use:

npm start

During development, you can also use:

npm run start:dev

To enable debug messages and run the code with on-the-fly compilation (via babel-node).

Or you can use:

npm run watch

To automatically restart the bot when the code changes.
