My kid wanted to save for a new bass so the app was a brilliant way to add chores worth of some money she could do and save.\n\nThe app uses Telegram API and YNAB API in a way my daughter is able to select a chore she has done simply by typing a Telegram command. Then the amount would be added to her savings budget accordingly.\n\n**Please note:** This bot is for personal use. It might not work for you and it has direct strings translated to Finnish language.\n\n\u003cimg src=\"https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/1534150/168444711-3146d91b-6acf-475e-a308-2a627acf5ba8.jpg\" width=\"320\" /\u003e\n\n### Requirements \n\n* Python 3.8\n* pipenv\n* Linux/WSL\n* [Python YNAB API](https://github.com/dmlerner/ynab-api)\n* [python-telegram-bot](https://github.com/python-telegram-bot/python-telegram-bot)\n\n### Installation\n\n1. Create your bot via [BotFather](https://t.me/botfather)\n2. Set up at least with `/newbot`, `/setdescription`, `/setname` and `/setuserpic`.\n3. Set up command options with `/setcommands`:\n\n```\nohje - Näytä ohje.\nkotihommat - Lisää tehty kotityö, näytä valinnat.\nperu - Peru/piilota valinnat.\nsaldo - Näytä paljonko tällä hetkellä on kertynyt säästöjä.\npoista - Poista haluttu summa, esim. /poista 0.50\n```\n\n4. Disable privacy mode with `/setprivacy`, if this is not set the bot cannot reply to a channel\n5. Rename .env-example to .env\n6. Add your personal bot `TOKEN` to .env file\n7. Run `pipenv install -r requirements.txt` (sudo might be needef or WSL)\n8. Add [YNAB API](https://api.youneedabudget.com/) credentials to .env (you can get your budget ID from address bar when going to [app.youneedabudget.com](https://app.youneedabudget.com/)):\n9. Run `pipenv run python bot.py`\n\n### Features\n\n* Add chores via command/bubbles\n* Update balance directly to YNAB budget\n* Get current savings amount from YNAB\n* List chore selection and amounts\n* Remove amounts directly from YNAB budget (if accidental taps or some money is used)\n\n### Resources that helped me\n\n* [How to create a Telegram Bot in Python in under 10 minutes](https://www.codementor.io/@karandeepbatra/part-1-how-to-create-a-telegram-bot-in-python-in-under-10-minutes-19yfdv4wrq)\n* [Making a Telegram bot using Python](https://pythonprogramming.org/making-a-telegram-bot-using-python/)\n","project_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Frollecode%2Fchores-telegram-bot","html_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/projects/github.com%2Frollecode%2Fchores-telegram-bot","lists_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Frollecode%2Fchores-telegram-bot/lists"}
