[nodebb-plugin-telegram] Telegram Notifications on NodeBB

[ngsankar]

Working Gr8. Thanks for a gr8 plug in.

Following are may questions/clarification/feedback

1. It seems to be working in pull mode from telegram (ie. i hv to give /recent or /read topicid etc) to get info from forum.
2. Is it possible to make it work in push mode (when a topic gets new post, can it be pushed to telegram if i am subscribed to it ?

The plugin has a great potential to be a killer one, especially the more and more people are getting into telegram for obvious advantages of multi platform / multi phone.

it actually send all notifications from nodebb to telegram in push mode, command from the bot is just additional features
just have to follow the instructions on configuration of your bot and then congif it on your user profile

@exodo There's the NodeBB-Community org on NodeBB... typically a catch-all for plugins that need maintainers

No guarantees though.

Hi,

I recently have updated Nodebb to 1.12.2 and this plugin to ver 0.3.1. I did put the Telegram Token and the room Id but I don't receive new topics nor reply to the Telegram group.

I have tried this from the server:

curl -X POST "https://api.telegram.org/botMyToken/sendMessage" -d "chat_id=-My_Chat_id&text=testing"

This works fine. Furthermore, if I talk to the bot it reply nothing and If I put a command, I get this message:

UserID not found.. Put your TelegramID again in the telegram settings of the forum. :(

I was able to get my TelegramID by checking bot's status in:

https://api.telegram.org/botMyToken/getUpdates

It still gives me the "Uid not found" message furthermore I don't receive notifications like upvotes and so on.

I have two questions:

1. Why it is not sending messages to the group?
2. Why the bot is answering with an error message instead of my TelegramID. This is important since forum users should be able to configure it in a esay way.

Thanks!

EDIT: I noticed that if I enter the TelegramID into a user, when I create a new topic or reply to an existing topic, Nodebb restats with this error message:

2019-08-26T18:03:52.827Z [4567/14717] - error: uncaughtException: forumURL is not defined
ReferenceError: forumURL is not defined
    at /server/nodebb/node_modules/nodebb-plugin-telegram-notifications/library.js:380:55
[...]

Otherwise if I interact with a user without TelegramID, Nodebb doesn't restart. If I uninstall nodebb-plugin-telegram, all users works fine.

Probably, this plugin is very outdated. An error occurs during installation:
/admin/plugins/telegrambot Not Found
You seem to have stumbled upon a page that does not exist. Return to the home page.
