# Spigot <-> Telegram bridge plugin ### This plugin will send chat messages from Minecraft to Telegram, and from Telegram to Minecraft. ## How to use: 1. Download .jar file from [releases page](https://github.com/kraftwerk28/spigot-tg-bridge/releases), and put it in `plugins/` directory on your server **OR** clone this repo and run `gradle` inside repo's directory. 2. If you already have telegram bot, skip this step. Otherwise create it through [BotFather](https://t.me/BotFather). You'll go through step-by-step instructions, give a bot __username__ and most importantly, obtain a bot __token__. Save this token for future use. **Note:** in order to make your bot hear raw text messages (not commands), you must disable [privacy mode](https://core.telegram.org/bots#privacy-mode) option which is on by default. Go through bot's settings: **Bot Settings -> Group Privacy** and click **Turn Off**. 3. Next, you need to tell plugin about your new bot. You can either: - Run Spigot server, plugin will log `"No config file found! Saving default one."`. After that, stop server and proceed to 4th step. - Copy [config.yml](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/kraftwerk28/spigot-tg-bridge/master/src/main/resources/config.yml) to `plugins/SpigotTGBridge/` in your server directory. 4. A `config.yml` is just a [valid YAML](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/YAML) file, alternative for JSON, but more human-readable. Now, take bot's __token__ which you got in 2nd step and paste them into `config.yml`, so it looks like this: ```yaml botToken: abcdefghijklmnopq123123123 # other configuration values... ``` 5. Run spigot server. 6. Add you bot to chats, where you plan to use it. In each of them, run `/chat_id` command. The bot should respond and give special value - __chat id__. Now, open `config.yml` and paste this ID under `chats` section, so it will look like this: ```yaml botToken: abcdefghijklmnopq123123123 chats: # Note about doubling minus sign. This is not a mistake, first one means list element, the second one - actual minus - -123456789 - 987654321 # other chat id's... ``` 7. You can extend `config.yml` with more tweaks, which are described in the table below, but it's not nesessary, plugin will use default values instead, if they're missing. Also, check out the [example](src/main/resources/config.yml). 8. Re-run server or type `tgbridge_reload` into server's console. ## Plugin configuration: | Field | Description | Type | Required | Default | |:-----:|:------------|:----:|:--------:|:-------:| | enable | If plugin should be enabled | `boolean` | :x: | `true` | | botToken | Telegram bot token ([How to create bot](https://core.telegram.org/bots#3-how-do-i-create-a-bot)) | `string` | :heavy_check_mark: | - | | chats | Chats, where bot will work (to prevent using bot by unknown chats) | `number[] or string[]` | :heavy_check_mark: | `[]` | | serverStartMessage | What will be sent to chats when server starts | `string` | :x: | `'Server started.'` | | serverStopMessage | What will be sent to chats when server stops | `string` | :x: | `'Server stopped.'` | | logJoinLeave | If true, plugin will send corresponding messages to chats, when player joins or leaves server | `boolean` | :x: | `true` | | logFromMCtoTG | If true, plugin will send messages from players on server, to Telegram chats | `boolean` | :x: | `true` | | logFromTGtoMC | If true, plugin will send messages from chats, to Minecraft server | `boolean` | :x: | `true` | | logPlayerDeath | If true, plugin will send message to Telegram if player died | `boolean` | :x: | `false` | | logPlayerAsleep | If true, plugin will send message to Telegram if player fell asleep | `boolean` | :x: | `false` | | strings | Dictionary of tokens - strings for plugin i18n | `Map` | :x: | See default config | | commands | Dictionary of command text used in Telegram bot | `Map` | :heavy_check_mark: | See below | | telegramMessageFormat | Format string for TGtoMC chat message | `string` | :x: | See default config | | minecraftMessageFormat | Format string for MCtoTG chat message | `string` | :x: | See default config | ## Telegram bot commands: Commands are customizeable through config.
