RE: New Project: Telegram Reply Steem Bot
Tried this but seems it isn't working for me. I will keep trying. Thanks and looking forward to the updates.
Tried this but seems it isn't working for me. I will keep trying. Thanks and looking forward to the updates.
Trying to use the service already out there or trying to run locally?
Not locally. Just following your instructions..
/start <accname> <wif>just sayswelcome <accname>!But nothing else.Thanks for bringing this to my attention. I realize now that there's a typo in the README.
Setup
You can run your own version of this bot via docker container. If you run locally instead of using the existing service, you need to register your bot with Botfather. It will give you an API key which you will use in this command.
I am confused still. Thank you for helping.. I have another question: do I use my steemit account here `r351574nc3/telegram-reply-steem-bot:latest`` instead of yours? and the whole command is run inside a conversation with botfather ?
Correct. You use your name.
When you run
/start <username> <wif>, that is the username/wif used when replies will be posted. It will post on your behalf.Thank you - I went through the process of naming a bot in botfather getting an API token - then I entered the docker command as you suggested. Went back to steem-replies did the
/start accountname wifand I have againWelcome mysteemitname!:-) Thanks but I will try now to delete my botfather bot because it is not working for me. And watch for an update
When you create a bot with botfather, you should have a name for your bot, you would not use
@steem-replies. You would use@yourbotnameYes i have a unique name there - the name i asked about was in the command
docker run --rm -e STEEM_NAME=$STEEM_NAME -e BOT_TOKEN=<token from the botfather> mysteemaccountname/telegram-reply-steem-bot:latesti used my steemit account nametrumanity`
