This a simple telegram bot that automates the hustle of regestering orders manualy by showing available items and letting user register their orders by giving them a series of prompots. Even though the prompots are specific to the items that I was selling at the time I built this project you can tweak it a little to make it meat your needs. Don't hesatet to do so because it's well documented and organized. Checkout the dive deep into the inner working of the bot.
First Clone the repo using this command.
git clone https://github.com/mikias-abiy/order_receiver.git
Then, Navigate to the directory you cloned.
cd order_receiver
Then create a python virtual enviroment. It's recommended to use virtual enviroment to not mess with the version of other projects dependencies (but keep in mind this optional)
python3 -m venv .venv
Then activate the virtual enviroment by executing this command (assuming you are using linux) you can look the documentation for venv here.
. .venv/bin/activate
Then, install all the necessary third party libraries by executing the following command.
pip install -r requirements.txt
Then, set the your bot's token in the config.py file ot the BOT_API_TOKEN variable. If you don't have or don't know how to generate Telegram bot API token take a look at there documentation here
Then, run the bot by executing the following command
python3 main.py
