OutFromViresBot

This code has been created to set up a Telegram channel to alert investors of new liquidations, repay or deposits in https://vires.finance/. It is based on a scraper of https://github.com/deemru/w8io.

The code is very hacky and it needs improvement. In the current state, an environment variable distinguishes the two modes of this bot:

• TELEGRAM_BOT_ON = false -> the transactions are sent to stdout. [DEFAULT]
• TELEGRAM_BOT_ON = true -> the transactions are sent to a Telegram channel by a bot.

Run bot

If the Telegram bot mode is enabled, two more variables are required:

• TELEGRAM_BOT_ID: get this from BotFather. (E.g. 123456:ABC-DEF1234ghIkl-zyx57W2v1u123ew11)
• TELEGRAM_CHAT_ID: get this from the getUpdates function of the telegram bot. (E.g. -1000123456789)

You can use export to have them in the current shell session only:

export TELEGRAM_BOT_ON=true
export TELEGRAM_BOT_ID=123456:ABC-DEF1234ghIkl-zyx57W2v1u123ew11
export TELEGRAM_CHAT_ID=-1000123456789
python bot.py

This will obviously run until you close the shell.

If you want to run the bot in docker and forget about it, you can run the following command after changing the IDs with yours:

docker run -e TELEGRAM_BOT_ID=123456:ABC-DEF1234ghIkl-zyx57W2v1u123ew11 -e TELEGRAM_CHAT_ID=-1000123456789 --restart unless-stopped -d andraghetti/vires-alerts

Development

In case you want to try the local mode without docker, you have to install the package and set the variables.

pip install --upgrade pip  # optional
pip install -e .
python bot.py

Known issues

• The datetime is wrong (+1)
• useless coloredlogs dependecy since this works on docker
