telebagger

Simple Telegram to Discord one-way relay service. Uses the Discord-Webhooks and Telethon libraries.

Monitors a specified Telegram channel and relays any messages received in that channel to a Discord webhook. Designed to run as a human user for channels where bots are not permitted.

Installation

pip install telethon

Then copy config.example.json and set the fields accordingly.

  • discord.url - Should be set to a Discord webhook URL. Your Discord admin will need to create this.
  • telegram.api_id & api_hash - These can be obtained from Telegram
  • telegram.phone - Should be the phone number of the user you wish to connect as (remember to include country code)
  • telegram.channel_id - This is the ID of the channel you are monitoring. If you don't have this, you will be presented with a list of available channels on first run of the script.

Once config is set up, simply run:

python3 telelooper.py

For autorestarts, use pm2:

pm2 start telelooper.py --interpreter=python3

Telelooper vs Telebagger

Telelooper retrieves unread messages manually every few seconds, while Telebagger relies on Telethon's events. Telethon's events can be unreliable for supergroups, many missed messages can be expected. I would recommend using the telelooper.py script over the telebagger.py script unless you have a pressing need to use events.
