Fenneco - Telegram Userbot

Fenneco is a Telegram userbot which uses proton, a very much WIP Telegram client API library built on top of tdlib.

Fenneco is still very much in development and will be undergoing many changes, so keep posted.

Dependencies

Fenneco makes use of proton for connecting with the telegram client API. Proton requires libtdjson 1.6.4 (the most recent version at the time of writing). It's advised to build it yourself. Proton is written in Crystal as well (in case that wasn't obvious), as is Fenneco, so you will need Crystal installed in order to build.

Proton also depends on libmagic for filetype detection. You should be able to find an installable version on most systems. Make sure you have the -dev or -devel version.

You will also need a postgresql database.

Installation

  1. Fork or clone this code. Alternatively you can also download a zipped version of it here.

  2. Inside of the fenneco directory, run shards install to install dependencies.

  3. Once dependencies are installed you'll need to copy .env.example to .env and modify the values inside. The most important things are API_ID, API_HASH, and DB_URI. You can find your api id and api hash at https://my.telegram.org. The DB_URI will need to be a URI for your postgres database using the format postgres://username:password@host/database. Also potentially important is TD_DATABASE_DIRECTORY which is the path at which the tdlib database will be stored.

  4. Now it's time to migrate the database. You can do that using micrate. Just run ./micrate up in the root of the project. If your database credentials were entered correctly into your .env file you should see success messages.

  5. Finally it's time to run fenneco. Use the command crystal run ./src/fenneco.cr. If everything was done correctly you should see some connection stats (output by tdlib) and it should ask for your phone number. You should only need to do this once (unless you change the TD_DATABASE_DIRECTORY value).

That should be about it. Go to Telegram, enter .stats, press enter, and you should see some statistics about your bot. If you want to enable multithreading (which is advised) run crystal run with the -Dpreview_mt flag.

Extras

There are some extra values that can be provided inside of your .env file, but aren't required. Here they are:
