Minimal Telegram to Bale forwarder bot designed for "Melli Internet" situations where Bale servers still have access to the international network.

The bot fetches Telegram channels data through Bale using tg.i-c-a.su and sends new posts directly into a Bale channel/group.

Installation

First Steps on Bale

  1. If you don't have a channel/group in which you want the bot forward the messages, make one.
  2. Make a new channel/group in Bale. This channel/group is gonna be the tunnel for bot to receive messages data from API.
  3. Make a bot using BotFather bot in Bale. Save the Token somewhere safe.

NOTE: You'll need the UID of the two channels/groups you've made. In order to find the UID of a chat, open the chat in Bale Web version. In the URL of the page you'll see this format: web.bale.ai/chat?uid=<UID>. Copy the UID from here.
