A config file for Heruko credentials and other configs needs to be created and handled in the code in a way that deploying on a local machine for testing purposes is available.

anvaari commented 3 years ago

You are right. Actually I totally forgot that. I will add those file as soon as possible. Thanks :)

anvaari commented 3 years ago

Finally, I Find out. Please follow these steps in order to deploy locally.

Install Heroku cli From Here. You should change your IP for sign up!
Download Ngrok and set it on port 5000 (./ngrok http 5000)
Clone Repository
Change variable in .env.sample in proper way
Rename .env.sample to .env
In Barnamekon.py :
- See line 197
- See line 204
cd path/to/barnamekon
heroku local web
open this address in your browser localhost:5000 . if ! appear it means it deployed successfully else, see terminal for log.
Go to telegram and interact with Barnamekon.

I will add this to README.md soon. It's best way I can find. If any problem occurred please write it here, so we will handle that. Thanks :)

Alright thanks. However, I found out that you don't really need flask cause telegram API provides HTTP server for deployment itself. The code would be so much simpler. I am currently working on a fork of the repository. Will do these steps if it was necessary.

anvaari commented 3 years ago

Actually, I didn't know anything about that. But If make code simpler, It's definitely better. I will read about that. Do you want to work on replacing Flask with that API ? If no, I will work on it.

HesamKorki commented 3 years ago

It would be great if you could make it simpler with that. I tried to host the bot using Ngrok and Heruko local as you mentioned but at the end it was not successful. All I need is a debugging environment so I could test the changes locally.

anvaari commented 3 years ago

I know, it is necessary for developing to run bot locally. I work on it and I hope, I can handle this soon. But until then, can you send me your edited version of Barnamekon.py and share screen shot of terminal after heroku local web? maybe I can help you with that

anvaari commented 3 years ago

I search for it, but can't find smth wich can make bot simpler. We should use webhook to interact with heroku. and here are some example which we can use to set up webhook. I think simplest is Flask. I try these steps, and bot run locally. please send me information which I mentioned in last comment to solve problem.
