Install and run using docker

It is assumed that you are familiar with basic docker commands.

Make sure you have understood how telewater is run by passing certain variables via command-line options or by setting them as environment variables. Read Telewater CLI usage to learn about the telewater CLI.

Install

Docker should be properly installed and running in your system.

$ docker pull aahnik/telewater

Configure

Put all your environment variables as described in Telewater CLI usage, in a file. Let's say .env

The file looks somewhat like this:

API_ID=13.....1
API_HASH=49111111ed8...........b09fb7dd1
BOT_TOKEN=1452222220:AAG_...................tbssssQ8
BOT_USERNAME=yourAwesomeName_bot

Run

Now you can use the docker run command, and pass the .env file for the --env-file option.

$ docker run -it -d --env-file .env aahnik/telewater

Check

To see if your container is running,

$ docker ps

To see the logs produced by the container,

$ docker logs
