# Telegram Bot that saves photos ## Things you will need to do to run it - Get a telegram bot token from the botFather - Just talk to [BotFather](https://telegram.me/botfather) and follow a few simple steps. Once you've created a bot and received your authorization token, copt and paste it into the config file. (botId) - Make sure you have NodeJS and npm installed - Install dependencies. - ``` $ npm install``` All done :) ## Configuration This bot can be configured via the config.js file. Keep the structure of this file as is, and change the values to your needs. ## Running the bot I would suggest to use [pm2](http://pm2.keymetrics.io) to manage this process. but its your call... Production Run: ``` $ node index.js ``` Debug Run: ``` $ node index.js --printMessage ``` > This will print out the firs message the bot receives and will exit.
So you can see user ID and other data attached to the message.
