git clone https://github.com/EverythingSuckz/TG-FileStreamBot
cd TG-FileStreamBot
go build ./cmd/fsb/
Rename-Item -LiteralPath ".\fsb.sample.env" -NewName ".\fsb.env"
notepad fsb.env
# (add your environment variables, see the next section for more info)
.\fsb run

and to stop the program, do CTRL+C

Setting up things

If you're locally hosting, create a file named fsb.env in the root directory and add all the variables there. You may check the fsb.sample.env. An example of fsb.env file:

API_ID=452525
API_HASH=esx576f8738x883f3sfzx83
BOT_TOKEN=55838383:yourbottokenhere
LOG_CHANNEL=-10045145224562
PORT=8080
HOST=http://yourserverip
# (if you want to set up multiple bots)
MULTI_TOKEN1=55838373:yourworkerbottokenhere
MULTI_TOKEN2=55838355:yourworkerbottokenhere

Required Vars

Before running the bot, you will need to set up the following mandatory variables:

• API_ID : This is the API ID for your Telegram account, which can be obtained from my.telegram.org.

• API_HASH : This is the API hash for your Telegram account, which can also be obtained from my.telegram.org.

• BOT_TOKEN : This is the bot token for the Telegram Media Streamer Bot, which can be obtained from @BotFather.

• LOG_CHANNEL : This is the channel ID for the log channel where the bot will forward media messages and store these files to make the generated direct links work. To obtain a channel ID, create a new telegram channel (public or private), post something in the channel, forward the message to @missrose_bot and reply the forwarded message with the /id command. Copy the forwarded channel ID and paste it into the this field.

Optional Vars

In addition to the mandatory variables, you can also set the following optional variables:

• PORT : This sets the port that your webapp will listen to. The default value is 8080.

• HOST : A Fully Qualified Domain Name if present or use your server IP. (eg. https://example.com or http://14.1.154.2:8080)

• HASH_LENGTH : Custom hash length for generated URLs. The hash length must be greater than 5 and less than or equal to 32. The default value is 6.

• USE_SESSION_FILE : Use session files for worker client(s). This speeds up the worker bot startups. (default: false)

• USER_SESSION : A pyrogram session string for a user bot. Used for auto adding the bots to LOG_CHANNEL. (default: null)

• ALLOWED_USERS : A list of user IDs separated by comma (,). If this is set, only the users in this list will be able to use the bot. (default: null)

---

Use Multiple Bots to speed up

Note

What it multi-client feature and what it does?
This feature shares the Telegram API requests between worker bots to speed up download speed when many users are using the server and to avoid the flood limits that are set by Telegram.

Note

You can add up to 50 bots since 50 is the max amount of bot admins you can set in a Telegram Channel.

To enable multi-client, generate new bot tokens and add it as your fsb.env with the following key names.

MULTI_TOKEN1: Add your first bot token here.

MULTI_TOKEN2: Add your second bot token here.

you may also add as many as bots you want. (max limit is 50) MULTI_TOKEN3, MULTI_TOKEN4, etc.

Warning

Don't forget to add all these worker bots to the LOG_CHANNEL for the proper functioning

Using user session to auto add bots

Warning

This might sometimes result in your account getting resticted or banned. Only newly created accounts are prone to this.

To use this feature, you need to generate a pyrogram session string for the user account and add it to the USER_SESSION variable in the fsb.env file.

What it does?

This feature is used to auto add the worker bots to the LOG_CHANNEL when they are started. This is useful when you have a lot of worker bots and you don't want to add them manually to the LOG_CHANNEL.

How to generate a session string?

The easiest way to generate a session string is by running

./fsb session --api-id <your api id> --api-hash <your api hash>

This will generate a session string for your user account using QR code authentication. Authentication via phone number is not supported yet and will be added in the future.
