View the github repo on https://jugendhackt.github.io/fff-infopunkt-pythonbackend/⁠

⁠What does this service do?

• Collecting the data from telegram with a chatbot (called fffinfobot)
• Preparing the data for the dynalite backend (uses the dynamodb service) and pushing Data to server

⁠How to get this working

⁠1. Use python3

1. Clone Repository to your local disk
2. Install with pip install telepot pynamodb
3. Create config.json with your dynalite server and chatbot id (to use ours please use the docker version)
4. Run server with python3 bot.py
5. Format the messages as shown below and have fun

⁠2. Use docker (recommended)

1. Run on an x64 machine docker run -d pboehler/fffinfopythonbackendserver
2. Run on an arm machine like the Raspberry Pi docker run -d pboehler/fffinfopythonbackendserver:rpi

⁠Format the messages:

The messages need to be formated with the following pattern:

1. bot:
2. A title
3. A short description (need to be one line)
4. The organisation
5. The date
6. The start time
7. The meeting point / starting point
8. The end point
9. A website url

The 'bot:' statement is needed to let the bot know that the message is meant for him / her

If an element does not exists add 'None' / 'none' / 'NONE' to the line
