[TEOTB-1][Dev] Create simple buildable java project

[DonkeyRit]

Implement simple telegram bot:

• [x] Create java console application from maven archetype;
• [x] Make it buildable through maven;
• [x] Clean solution;
• [x] Use config for token and bot username.

Telegram API Bot API Key is a sensitive information which should be protected. The main intension of add configuration file is hiding api key from repository.

I've created a file named config.properties in resource folder with the following content

BOT_TOKEN = 8743b52063cd84097a65d1633f5c74f5

Then inside the function of a Java class you can use the following lines of code to read the config file.

String configFilePath = "src/config.properties";
FileInputStream propsInput = new FileInputStream(configFilePath);

Then we need to initialize java.util.Properties and load the input file into the properties object.

Properties prop = new Properties();
prop.load(propsInput);

Now, we can read the configs from our file as follows,

System.out.println(prop.getProperty("BOT_TOKEN"));
