How to deploy?

Deploying is pretty much straight forward and is divided into several steps as follows:

Installing requirements

• Clone this repo:

git clone https://github.com/jagrit007/python-Telegram-Mirror-Bot mirror-bot/
cd mirror-bot

• Install requirements For Debian based distros

sudo apt install python3

• For Arch and it's derivatives:

sudo pacman -S docker python

Setting up config file

cp config_sample.env config.env

_____REMOVE_THIS_LINE_____=True

Fill up rest of the fields. Meaning of each fields are discussed below:

• BOT_TOKEN : The telegram bot token that you get from @BotFather
• GDRIVE_FOLDER_ID : This is the folder ID of the Google Drive Folder to which you want to upload all the mirrors.
• DOWNLOAD_DIR : The path to the local folder where the downloads should be downloaded to
• DOWNLOAD_STATUS_UPDATE_INTERVAL : A short interval of time in seconds after which the Mirror progress message is updated. (I recommend to keep it 5 seconds at least)
• OWNER_ID : The Telegram user ID (not username) of the owner of the bot
• AUTO_DELETE_MESSAGE_DURATION : Interval of time (in seconds), after which the bot deletes it's message (and command message) which is expected to be viewed instantly. Note: Set to -1 to never automatically delete messages
• IS_TEAM_DRIVE : (Optional field) Set to True if GDRIVE_FOLDER_ID is from a Team Drive else False or Leave it empty.
• USE_SERVICE_ACCOUNTS: (Optional field) (Leave empty if unsure) Whether to use service accounts or not. For this to work see "Using service accounts" section below.
• INDEX_URL : (Optional field) Refer to https://github.com/maple3142/GDIndex/ The URL should not have any trailing '/'
• API_KEY : This is to authenticate to your telegram account for downloading Telegram files. You can get this from https://my.telegram.org DO NOT put this in quotes.
• API_HASH : This is to authenticate to your telegram account for downloading Telegram files. You can get this from https://my.telegram.org
• USER_SESSION_STRING : Session string generated by running:

python3 generate_string_session.py

Note: You can limit maximum concurrent downloads by changing the value of MAX_CONCURRENT_DOWNLOADS in aria.sh. By default, it's set to 2

Getting Google OAuth API credential file

• Visit the Google Cloud Console
• Go to the OAuth Consent tab, fill it, and save.
• Go to the Credentials tab and click Create Credentials -> OAuth Client ID
• Choose Other and Create.
• Use the download button to download your credentials.
• Move that file to the root of mirror-bot, and rename it to credentials.json
• Visit Google API page
• Search for Drive and enable it if it is disabled
• Finally, run the script to generate token file (token.pickle) for Google Drive:

pip install google-api-python-client google-auth-httplib2 google-auth-oauthlib
python3 generate_drive_token.py

Deploying

• Start docker daemon (skip if already running):

sudo dockerd

• Build Docker image:

sudo docker build . -t mirror-bot

• Run the image:

sudo docker run mirror-bot

Using service accounts for uploading to avoid user rate limit

For Service Account to work, you must set USE_SERVICE_ACCOUNTS=True in config file or environment variables Many thanks to AutoRClone for the scripts

Generating service accounts

Step 1. Generate service accounts What is service account

Let us create only the service accounts that we need. Warning: abuse of this feature is not the aim of autorclone and we do NOT recommend that you make a lot of projects, just one project and 100 sa allow you plenty of use, its also possible that overabuse might get your projects banned by google.

Note: 1 service account can copy around 750gb a day, 1 project makes 100 service accounts so thats 75tb a day, for most users this should easily suffice. 

python3 gen_sa_accounts.py --quick-setup 1 --new-only

A folder named accounts will be created which will contain keys for the service accounts created

NOTE: If you have created SAs in past from this script, you can also just re download the keys by running:

python3 gen_sa_accounts.py --download-keys project_id

Add all the service accounts to the Team Drive or folder

• Run:

python3 add_to_team_drive.py -d SharedTeamDriveSrcID

Youtube-dl authentication using .netrc file

For using your premium accounts in youtube-dl, edit the netrc file (in the root directory of this repository) according to following format:

machine host login username password my_youtube_password

where host is the name of extractor (eg. youtube, twitch). Multiple accounts of different hosts can be added each separated by a new line
