# **telme**
#### CLI inline telegram bot notifications
## TL;DR
1. Get a bot token ( [BotFather](https://telegram.me/botfather) )
2. `$ npm install -g node-telme`
3. `$ telme --init`
4. Do something :)
## How do i get a bot token?
- 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, copy it for later
## Configure `telme`
Simply run `$ telme --init` and follow the easy steps. You will need the bot token at this stage.
This will help you generate a `.telmeconfig` file in your home directory. You can always run `--init` again to override values or just edit the file yourself.
## Examples:
###### Simple message
```
$ telme --m "Message to send"
```
###### Task message
Task messages are a simple way to receive a message from your bot once a command has been finished. It will also let you know if you had any errors.
```
$ telme docker build . -t my-image/build/that/takes/for/ever
```
In this example, once the docker build has finished you will receive a message.
```
$ telme npm run test
```
```
$ telme do-a-long-task
```
