Food-ordering-bot: a Telegram bot to facilitate group food orders, written in Rust

Usage

Add food_ordering_bot to a group on Telegram, and use /help for a list of commands.

/start <order name> - starts an order. For example, /start waffles.
/view - shows active orders.

The following commands will ask for the order name, if there are multiple active orders.

/order [order name] <item> - adds an item to an order, or replaces the previously chosen one.
/cancel [order name] - removes your previously selected item from an order.
/end [order name] - stops an order.

Building from source

As usual for Cargo, build with cargo build, run with cargo run and run unit tests with cargo test.

The bot expects its telegram bot token to be provided using the TELEGRAM_BOT_TOKEN environment variable, and panicks if not found.

Running On Docker

docker build -t food-ordering-bot .
docker run -e TELEGRAM_BOT_TOKEN=<token> -it food-ordering-bot
