tugitlabbot

A Telegrambot to notify about changes on the TU Wien GitLab repository.

Try it out: https://t.me/tuGitlabBot

Run the bot (native)

1. Install golang
2. Run go build
3. Run TELEGRAM_TOKEN=XXXX ./gitlabbot
   Where XXXX is the Token for the Telegrambot

Run the bot with docker

1. Install docker
2. Build and start the docker container

docker build -t tugitlabbot-template .
docker run -e TELEGRAM_TOKEN=XXXX --rm --name tugitlabbot-container tugitlabbot-template

Where XXXX is the Token for the Telegrambot

Note: Those commands will run the bot in a docker container, however all state will be lost, when you shut down the container. To prevent this you can use docker volumes:

docker volume create tugitlabbot-volume
docker build -t tugitlabbot-template .
docker run --env TELEGRAM_TOKEN=XXXX \
      --mount type=volume,source=tugitlabbot-volume,target=/app/data \
      --name tugitlabbot-container tugitlabbot-template \
