Telegram Bot

A Telegram bot for managing and tracking bounties in groups and DMs.

Setup

cd apps/telegram-bot

# Install uv (if not already installed)
curl -LsSf https://astral.sh/uv/install.sh | sh

# Copy and edit environment
cp .env.example .env
# Add your bot token to .env: JIGAIDO_BOT_TOKEN="your:token"

# Install dependencies and run
uv sync          # creates .venv/, installs deps
uv run python bot.py   # runs the bot

Running in Background

Option 1: tmux (quick, survives SSH disconnect)

tmux new -s jigaido
uv run python bot.py
# Press Ctrl+B, then D to detach (bot keeps running)

// Later:
tmux attach -t jigaido

Option 2: systemd (production, auto-restart, boot on startup)

# Edit the service file paths first
nano deploy/jigaido-bot.service
# Change /home/shoko/repositories/jigaido to your actual path

# Install
sudo cp deploy/jigaido-bot.service /etc/systemd/system/
sudo systemctl daemon-reload
sudo systemctl enable jigaido-bot
sudo systemctl start jigaido-bot

# Useful commands:
sudo systemctl status jigaido-bot
sudo systemctl restart jigaido-bot
sudo systemctl stop jigaido-bot
journalctl -u jigaido-bot -f    # tail logs

Or use the automated setup script:

export JIGAIDO_BOT_TOKEN="your:token"
bash deploy/setup.sh

# crontab -e — run at 9am daily
0 9 * * * cd /path/to/jigaido/apps/telegram-bot && JIGAIDO_BOT_TOKEN="your:token" uv run python cron.py
