Run predefined scripts and get output in telegram

Telegracommando

Run predefineed bash scripts and get output in telegram.

Running

Configuration resides in file called telegracommando.ini which you must edit.

Docker (recommended)

I prefer to use podman instead of docker, which I highly recommend:

podman run -d \
    --name telegracommando \
    -v PATH_TO_CONFIG:/config \
    -v PATH_TO_COMMANDS:/usr/src/app/commands.d \
    dolohow/telegracommando

PIP

You need Python 3 to run this program.

pip install -r requirements.txt

python telegracommando.py

Id does not at the time run as daemon, so you can run it in screen, tmux or create systemd service.

You can also use nohup

nohup python telegracommando.py &

Custom scripts

You can put your custom scripts in commands.d directory. There are few already created for you to see how that works. Command name in Telegram is the name of the script. You can also pass arguments to script, they would be available in bash as $1, $2 and so on... And don't forget to add executable permission like that:

chmod +x commands.d/custom_script

Security

You should probably not give access to this bot to people you don't trust. It was not designed with security in mind. However I implemented some mitigation that might help a bit.
