Telegram Bot

Description

The official TogetherCrew focused around data ingestion.

Installation

• Create a telegram bot using BotFather
• Add the bot token to your .env file
• Add your bot to your chat (NOTE: It must be an admin to capture reactions)
• Start docker compose (for mongodb + neo4j)

$ npm install

Running the app

# development
$ npm run start

# watch mode
$ npm run start:dev [service]

# production mode
$ npm run start:prod [service]

Note: There are 3 services:

• bot
• event-store (raw dump to mongo)
• graph-store (creates interactions in neo4j)

Test

# unit tests
$ npm run test

# e2e tests
$ npm run test:e2e

# test coverage

Features

• Listens to Telegram events
• Store raw events in mongo

NOTE: The telegram bot api doesn't support listening to delete events at this time.

Improvement opportunities

• Break the REACTED_TO edge into 3 cases. REACTED_TO, EDITED_REACTION, and REMOVED_REACTION.
