Optimize Toolset

I’ve always been into building performant and accessible sites, but lately I’ve been taking it extremely seriously. So much so that I’ve been building a tool to help me optimize and monitor the sites that I build to make sure that I’m making an attempt to offer the best experience to those who visit them. If you’re into performant, accessible and SEO friendly sites, you might like it too! You can check it out at Optimize Toolset.

About

Hi, 👋, I’m Ryan Hefner  and I built this site for me, and you! The goal of this site was to provide an easy way for me to check the stats on my npm packages, both for prioritizing issues and updates, and to give me a little kick in the pants to keep up on stuff.

As I was building it, I realized that I was actually using the tool to build the tool, and figured I might as well put this out there and hopefully others will find it to be a fast and useful way to search and browse npm packages as I have.

If you’re interested in other things I’m working on, follow me on Twitter or check out the open source projects I’ve been publishing on GitHub.

I am also working on a Twitter bot for this site to tweet the most popular, newest, random packages from npm. Please follow that account now and it will start sending out packages soon–ish.

Open Software & Tools

This site wouldn’t be possible without the immense generosity and tireless efforts from the people who make contributions to the world and share their work via open source initiatives. Thank you 🙏

Simple Telegram Bot Dev Boilerplate Generator

Readme

create-bot-template

A simple package to create template files for a Telegram Bot.

Installation

  • You don't need to install this package locally. You can use npx to run it directly:

Usage

Case-1 ( both wrapper name and project name entered)

npx create-bot-template <name-of-wrapper> <name-of-bot>
  • The above command will create a new directory with the name <name-of-bot> and generate the necessary template files for a Telegram bot based on the wrapper chosen by the user. Please ensure the name of project is unique and does not conflict with existing directories.

Example: create-bot-template telegraf first-bot

  • This command creates a new folder named 'first-bot' with template files for coding with the Telegraf wrapper.

Case-2 (only name of the wrapper is entered )

npx create-bot-template <name-of-wrapper>
  • The above command will create a prompt for the user to specify the name of project, and generate the necessary template files for the bot. The <name-of-bot> argument is required and is used to specify the name of the directory that will be created. Please ensure the name is unique and does not conflict with existing directories.

Example create-bot-template grammy

Case-3 (with no entries)

npx create-bot-template 
  • The above command will create a prompt for the user to select the type of wrapper to use and specify the name of project, then it generates the necessary template files for the bot based on the inputs of the user. Please ensure the name is unique and does not conflict with existing directories.

After running one of the above commands, the package will create the necessary template files for your Telegram bot.

Next you should navigate to your newly created directory.

cd <name-of-bot>
  • After navigating to your bot's directory with cd <name-of-bot>, you should find a README file inside. This README contains specific instructions and information about the bot template that has been generated.

  • To read the README, you can use a text editor or a markdown viewer. If you're using Visual Studio Code, you can simply open the README file in it and use the built-in markdown preview feature.

  • Please make sure to read the README.md file carefully as it contains important information about how to configure and use the boilerplate code.
