tgbot

Launching bots

• The first startup will be slow!
• Make sure to mount volumes for persistence. Otherwise, after every restart, you will lose your caches and databases (including users and riot bots).
• Beforehand, you need to set up all credentials in the .env.light file. After setting them up, execute the following command in the Terminal:

docker compose --env-file .env.light up --force-recreate --build

Wait for the following line to be displayed in the logs:

light-tgbot-1  | INFO:statbox:{'action': 'started', 'mode': 'dynamic_bot', 'bot_name': '<bot_name>'}

Possible performance optimizations, from least to most complicated:

• Mount to tgbot to cache bot credentials:

  volumes:
  - /usr/lib/stc-tgbot:/usr/lib/stc-tgbot
  - /var/log/stc-tgbot:/var/log/stc-tgbot

• Mount to ipfs to cache the database and downloaded items:

  volumes:
  - /data/ipfs:/data/ipfs

• If you have mounted volumes to ipfs, pin the database to IPFS:

  docker compose --env-file .env.light exec ipfs ipfs pin add /ipns/libstc.cc --progress

• Host the database directly (requires development experience).
