   • RUN_AT_STARTUP - Start mining after bot script start
   • SUDO_PASS - Your sudo password. Needs for collect hdd's temperatures, or you can run bot with sudo, not necessary.
   • SLAVE_PC - If your farm consists of several nodes, you can make one node the master by setting the SLAVE_PC parameter to False, and the remaining nodes as slaves. Thus, one telegram bot will be enough to monitor all your nodes. Switching between farms by sending a message with the farm address number according to the list in the NODES. Can be removed if you only have one node.
   • NODES - List of IP's yours nodes. First address must be Master node. On slave nodes, the list can be limited only by the IP of the master node. I use exactly the same config, only with the SLAVE_PC parameter. Can be removed if you only have one node.
   • IP - Each node deploys a server to receive and send messages. The script will try to find its own IP, if this does not happen and the script is deployed on 127.0.0.1, this parameter can be specified explicitly.Can be removed if you only have one node.
   • NOT_SLEEP - If True, every 60 seconds bot will write on disks, with "usb" in mounpoint, simple file "sleep.txt" so that these drives do not go into power saving mode
   • SMARTDOG - If True, the bot will send a notification when critical SMART values of your disks change
