# Telegram Group Joiner
A web tool to automate joining groups, useful when you're entering a new research topic and have a start point of Telegram groups that are important to monitor. If you have private channel invites, those work too.
bellingcat.github.io/telegram-group-joiner/
example video here
You can preload a URL with links if you separate them by `;` in the URL using `links=` parameter:
```bash
# these 2 links
https://t.me/bellingcat
https://t.me/+privateInvite,123id
# should be put into the same line and separated by `;`
https://t.me/bellingcat;https://t.me/+privateInvite,123id
```
resulting in https://bellingcat.github.io/telegram-group-joiner/?links=https://t.me/bellingcat;https://t.me/+privateInvite,123id
### Development
The project uses tdlib for a full client-side telegram API experience, documentation of common methods is [here](https://core.telegram.org/tdlib/docs/classtd_1_1td__api_1_1_function.html).
```bash
# install dependencies
yarn
# run in development mode (hot reload)
yarn dev
# Compiles and minifies for production
yarn build
```
The project is auto-deployed to GitHub pages when changes to main are pushed.
