StarHub Telegram Bot (Python)

Why?

I created this bot back when the old StarHub app was horrible.

Navigating to the data usage page takes a few taps and every movement was being tracked (analytics).

Since I spend more time on Telegram, why not create a bot that simplifies the experience of retrieving that information?

The main tools used were:

How this project is deployed is through

docker build -t starhub-tg-bot .

docker run -d --name starhub-tg-bot -v `pwd`/config:/app/config:ro starhub-tg-bot

docker run -d --name starhub-tg-bot -v `pwd`/config:/app/config:ro starhub-tg-bot && docker logs -f starhub-bot

docker run -d --rm --name starhub-tg-bot -v `pwd`/config:/app/config:ro starhub-tg-bot && docker logs -f starhub-bot

I am currently using Pipenv to manage the packages required for this project.

Pipenv sets the Python version to 3.9.

Follow this guide to install Pipenv.

To install all the required packages from Pipfile:

pipenv install

To activate a shell with all the packages:

pipenv shell

To run the bot:

python3 /src/main.py
