Using MadelineProto for private server deployments

[AlessandroZanatta]

Hello,

I'm currently trying to make a client work with a custom telegram server for research purposes. I stumbled upon this client, which seems to provide everything I need (secret chats, basically), but the issue is that it looks like IP addresses and public key(s) of the servers are hard-coded. Is it really the case, or have I missed something in the documentation?

I've also attempted to modify the source to use my local server. In particular, I modified the following files:

• MTProto.php
  • Modified RSA_KEYS with my server's public key
  • Modified dclist to point to my server and port
• DataCenter.php
  • Modified the foreach at line 480 to use my server, instead of the default X.web.telegram.web

Unfortunately, this doesn't appear to be enough, as all requests appear to be going to Telegram servers (149.154.167.99). I've either missed something, or composer is doing some magic behind the scenes and caching the unmodified code somewhere.

Could someone please help me? Thanks!

Wait a second, did you deploy an MTProto server on your own server? If so, what software did you use?
