Telegram notifications for administrators
In order to integrate notifications about any comment on your sites with remark42 with telegram
- Set
NOTIFY_ADMINS=telegram - Make a channel and add it to remark42 configuration as
NOTIFY_TELEGRAM_CHAN - Get a token according to the instruction below and add it to the configuration as well
Getting token for Telegram
In order to get token "just talk to BotFather". All you need is to send /newbot command, and choose the name for your bot (it must end in bot). This is it, you got a token which you'll need to write down into remark42 configuration as TELEGRAM_TOKEN.
Example of such a "talk":
Umputun:
/newbot
BotFather:
Alright, a new bot. How are we going to call it? Please choose a name for your bot.
Umputun:
example_comments
BotFather:
Good. Now let's choose a username for your bot. It must end in `bot`. Like this, for example: TetrisBot or tetris_bot.
Umputun:
example_comments_bot
BotFather:
Done! Congratulations on your new bot. You will find it at t.me/example_comments_bot. You can now add a description, about section and profile picture for your bot, see /help for a list of commands. By the way, when you've finished creating your cool bot, ping our Bot Support if you want a better username for it. Just make sure the bot is fully operational before you do this.
Use this token to access the HTTP API:
