Discourse Telegram Notifications Plugin

This plugin allows users to receive their notifications via a Telegram bot, allowing them to turn off email notifications and still keep up-to-date. :success:

You can “like” posts, and respond to them via the bot.

Here’s a quick demo video:

Before Starting

  • Your forum must be using HTTPS, and have force_https turned on
  • Your forum must be accessible to the internet, not only an internal network (in development, give ngrok a try).

Getting the plugin setup

  1. Install the plugin using the instructions here: How to install a plugin
  2. Create a telegram bot by talking to the BotFather (instructions here)
  3. Paste the “token” into the site setting “telegram access token”
  4. Tick “telegram notifications enabled”

I strongly recommend you use the BotFather’s /setjoingroups command to disable the bot being used for group chats. It is not designed for it, and risks leaking information that users are not supposed to be able to access (e.g. you don’t want private messages being sent to a group chat).

You can set the name/picture/description of your bot using the instructions here

For users to receive notifications

  1. Send a message to the bot, you’ll receive a message back that looks like

To get notifications for Discourse, enter the ‘Chat ID’ 1234567 in your user preferences

  1. Visit your Discourse user preferences, and paste the number in the Telegram Notifications box
  2. You should now receive notifications by telegram message!

Find out who’s using telegram for notifications

Here’s a query for the data explorer plugin:

SELECT user_id, updated_at, value from user_custom_fields
WHERE name = 'telegram_chat_id'
This is still a work in progress. I think the next task would be to improve the setup flow for the user, so they don't have to copy/paste numbers between telegram and the forum.

As always, suggestions and comments are very welcome :slight_smile:

I don’t see anywhere in the docs that it says to create a group, and in fact I see a recommendation to disallow the bot from being added to a group. Send a message directly to the bot, not to a group that includes the bot.

According to the OP (it’s even in a shaded box at the top), they do different things:

From the OP:

I haven’t done it myself, but that appears to answer the question.

你好。此功能目前是否正常工作？

当我将此语句复制到新的数据探索器查询中时，我收到“内部服务器错误”。

如果我在数据库上直接尝试该语句，则可以正常工作。

奇怪。我尝试了其他一些可用的标准查询。有些可以工作，但其他一些查询也出现了相同的错误。

Discourse：3.0.0 stable 和 3.0.1 stable

这两个版本都破坏了 Telegram 通知，也破坏了通过 Telegram 回复主题的功能。重新生成 API 密钥没有帮助。回复无法正常工作，并且机器人不像以前那样确认回复已发送。

对此问题有什么解决方案吗？或者这个插件的支持已经结束了？ :frowning:

将“Telegram 通知”框从“个人资料”移至“通知”是不是更有意义？我没想到会在个人资料下找到它（在我的情况下是在用户签名下），所以我不得不搜索它。 :wink:
