Configurable apps for running Telegram Bots that responds to photo Image Queries

## Bots using this framework

 * [@piselli_bot](https://telegram.me/piselli_bot) - A joke bot that sends images of beans

 * [@Robertpattinbot](https://telegram.me/Robertpattinbot) - A joke bot that sends images of Robert Pattinson

 * ... (open a PR to be featured here if you want to be featured here)

## Deveopment

 

 * Register your bot(s) using [@botfather](https://telegram.me/botfather).

 * Add a configuration file inside the project directory (use the one provided as an example)

 * Choose a prefix for your bot, it will be used to find the secure settings needed using environment variables

 * Add the environment variable `_TELEGRAM_KEY` and set its value to the configuration token given by @botfather

 * Choose an image provider and add it to your config (Bing at the moment does now work since the C# library of Bing is broken)

 * If needed you can override the config directory by passing it as a command-line parameter, i.e: `./image-search-bot.exe /opt/myconfigs`

## Usage

### Docker

Create a Dockerfile with the following contents:

```docker

FROM mattiascibien/image-search-bot

COPY *.botconfig.json ./

```

Run the conrainer with `docker run --env _TELEGRAM_KEY= --env BING_KEY=` where BOT_PREFIX is the value you have set in your `.botconfig.json` file
