telegram-quiz

Telegram chatbot that allows users to pass a quiz and get some Bytes

Installation

• You need node and npm 8+ installed.
• Run npm install to install dependencies
• You need to install redis for bot sessions
• You need to have mail server to receive daily payments notifications (for example setup gmail smtp access). Although you can disable email usage altogether with useEmail option
• You can check most of the available options in conf.js. Check options in conf.js and make sure all is set right. To override these settings add options to conf.json in app data dir.
• Copy questions.sample.json from app root to questions.json in app data dir (It's sample questions, feel free to add or edit questions.json according to your needs, but keep original structure and field names, so that bot could use questions)
• Run npm start to start bot.
• If you don't see any errors in console try to write a message to your bot (/start)

Test payments on testnet

• You can get testnet client and claim some testnet bytes for testing here
• When you start the bot it starts headless-obyte
• To enable testnet, place an .env file with testnet=1 in the root folder

Transfer bytes to the bot

• To transfer bytes to headless wallet you could use these instructions
• If you have trouble with pairing with remote device you could try to use this code to get wallet address

   headlessWallet.readSingleWallet(wallet => {
   	console.log(`Quiz bot wallet: '${wallet}'`);
   	headlessWallet.readSingleAddress(address => {
   		console.log(`Quiz bot wallet address: '${address}'`);
   	});
   });
  

  Be careful because it will throw errors if there are more than one wallet or addresses

Run bow with pm2

When you start the bot with npm start you will be asked to provide a passphrase for the bot's wallet. You can check out testnet-index.js script in the app root where you can see example of how to start the bot with a passphrase read from a file.

WARNING! It is not recomended way of running the bot because of security concerns. Make sure you understand what you are doing before sending funds to such a setup.
