How to deploy?

Deploying is pretty much straight forward and is divided into several steps as follows:

Installing requirements

git clone https://github.com/lzzy12/python-aria-mirror-bot mirror-bot/
cd mirror-bot

• Install requirements For Debian based distros

sudo apt install python3

Install Docker by following the official docker docs

• For Arch and it's derivatives:

sudo pacman -S docker python

• Install dependencies for running setup scripts:

pip3 install -r requirements-cli.txt

Setting up config file

cp config_sample.env config.env

• Remove the first line saying:

_____REMOVE_THIS_LINE_____=True

Fill up rest of the fields. Meaning of each fields are discussed below:

• BOT_TOKEN : The telegram bot token that you get from @BotFather
• GDRIVE_FOLDER_ID : This is the folder ID of the Google Drive Folder to which you want to upload all the mirrors.
• DOWNLOAD_DIR : The path to the local folder where the downloads should be downloaded to
• DOWNLOAD_STATUS_UPDATE_INTERVAL : A short interval of time in seconds after which the Mirror progress message is updated. (I recommend to keep it 5 seconds at least)
• OWNER_ID : The Telegram user ID (not username) of the owner of the bot
• AUTO_DELETE_MESSAGE_DURATION : Interval of time (in seconds), after which the bot deletes it's message (and command message) which is expected to be viewed instantly. Note: Set to -1 to never automatically delete messages
• IS_TEAM_DRIVE : (Optional field) Set to "True" if GDRIVE_FOLDER_ID is from a Team Drive else False or Leave it empty.
• USE_SERVICE_ACCOUNTS: (Optional field) (Leave empty if unsure) Whether to use service accounts or not. For this to work see "Using service accounts" section below.
• INDEX_URL : (Optional field) Refer to https://github.com/maple3142/GDIndex/ The URL should not have any trailing '/'
• TELEGRAM_API : This is to authenticate to your telegram account for downloading Telegram files. You can get this from https://my.telegram.org DO NOT put this in quotes.
• TELEGRAM_HASH : This is to authenticate to your telegram account for downloading Telegram files. You can get this from https://my.telegram.org
• USER_SESSION_STRING : Session string generated by running:

python3 generate_string_session.py

Note: You can limit maximum concurrent downloads by changing the value of MAX_CONCURRENT_DOWNLOADS in aria.sh. By default, it's set to 2

Getting Google OAuth API credential file

• Visit the Google Cloud Console
• Go to the OAuth Consent tab, fill it, and save.
• Go to the Credentials tab and click Create Credentials -> OAuth Client ID
• Choose Other and Create.
• Use the download button to download your credentials.
• Move that file to the root of mirror-bot, and rename it to credentials.json
• Visit Google API page
• Search for Drive and enable it if it is disabled
• Finally, run the script to generate token file (token.pickle) for Google Drive:

pip install google-api-python-client google-auth-httplib2 google-auth-oauthlib
python3 generate_drive_token.py

Deploying

• Start docker daemon (skip if already running):

sudo dockerd

• Build Docker image:

sudo docker build . -t mirror-bot

• Run the image:

sudo docker run mirror-bot

Using service accounts for uploading to avoid user rate limit

For Service Account to work, you must set USE_SERVICE_ACCOUNTS="True" in config file or environment variables Many thanks to AutoRClone for the scripts NOTE: Using service accounts is only recommended while uploading to a team drive.

Generating service accounts

Step 1. Generate service accounts What is service account

Let us create only the service accounts that we need. Warning: abuse of this feature is not the aim of this project and we do NOT recommend that you make a lot of projects, just one project and 100 sa allow you plenty of use, its also possible that over abuse might get your projects banned by google.

Note: 1 service account can copy around 750gb a day, 1 project can make 100 service accounts so that's 75tb a day, for most users this should easily suffice. 

python3 gen_sa_accounts.py --quick-setup 1 --new-only

A folder named accounts will be created which will contain keys for the service accounts

NOTE: If you have created SAs in past from this script, you can also just re download the keys by running:

python3 gen_sa_accounts.py --download-keys project_id

Add all the service accounts to the Team Drive

• Run:

python3 add_to_team_drive.py -d SharedTeamDriveSrcID

Youtube-dl authentication using .netrc file

For using your premium accounts in youtube-dl, edit the netrc file (in the root directory of this repository) according to following format:

machine host login username password my_youtube_password

where host is the name of extractor (eg. youtube, twitch). Multiple accounts of different hosts can be added each separated by a new line
