1- First, clone the repository and enter the folder with your terminal. Then, install all dependencies with

npm install or yarn

Some of the bot's functionality depends on being connected to a MongoDB database. If you wish to use your own database, just set the MONGODB_URI environment variable in the .env.example file to your URI connection string and rename the .env.example file to .env or, alternatively, set MONGODB_URI as an environment variable of the system hosting the bot.

You'll be doing the same thing for the BOT_TOKEN environment variable. You can get your token/key with BotFather, the official way to create bots on Telegram.

With everything set, you can start the bot with (nodemon is optional for hot reloading):

nodemon index.js
