About


The notification plugin env_notify_telegram sends a Telegram message
via your bot to any chat as you wish.


For security reasons, its CLI uses environment variables
because they are invisible to other processes.


Build


Compile like any other Rust program: cargo build -r


Find the resulting binary directly under target/release/.


Usage


    

  1. Create a Telegram bot
and remember its authentication token, e.g. "4839574812:AAFD39kkdpWt3ywyRZergyOLMaJhac60qc"
    2. 

  2. Start a conversation with the bot via Telegram itself
using the account to be notified via this program in the future
    3. 

  3. Run (e.g.) ENTG_TOKEN=4839574812:AAFD39kkdpWt3ywyRZergyOLMaJhac60qc env_notify_telegram,
it should show something like this: [ENTG_CHAT=1424462536] 23h 57m 50s ago: al2klimov: /start
    4. 

  4. E.g. to notify "al2klimov", run the following command:
    5. 



ENTG_TOKEN=4839574812:AAFD39kkdpWt3ywyRZergyOLMaJhac60qc \
  ENTG_CHAT=1424462536 \
  ENTG_MESSAGE=test \
  env_notify_telegram


Finally, check your inbox:




One bot (ENTG_TOKEN) can notify any number of recipients (ENTG_CHAT).
But when multiple senders don't trust each other, each should have an own bot.
