## Environment Variables

Required Variables

- `BOT_TOKEN`: Create a bot using [@BotFather](https://telegram.dog/BotFather), and get the Telegram API token.
- `APP_ID`: Get this value from [telegram.org](https://my.telegram.org/apps).
- `API_HASH`: Get this value from [telegram.org](https://my.telegram.org/apps).
- `DB_CHANNELS`: ID of database channel or group. Separate multiple IDs by space
- `OWNER_ID`: User ID of owner.
- `ADMINS`: User ID of Admins. Separate multiple Admins by space.
- `DB_URL`: Link to connect postgresql database (setup details given below).

## Database Setup

```bash
# Install postgresql:
sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install postgresql

# Change to the postgres user:
sudo su - postgres

# Create a new database user (change YOUR_USER appropriately):
createuser -P -s -e YOUR_USER
# This will be followed by you needing to input your password.

# create a new database table:
createdb -O YOUR_USER YOUR_DB_NAME
#Change YOUR_USER and YOUR_DB_NAME appropriately.

# finally:
psql -h YOUR_HOST -p YOUR_PORT -d YOUR_DB_NAME -U YOUR_USER

#This will allow you to connect to your database via your terminal.
By default, YOUR_HOST should be `localhost` & YOUR_PORT should be `5432`.

You should now be able to build your database URI. This will be:
sqldbtype://username:password@hostname:port/db_name

Replace your sqldbtype, username, password, hostname (localhost?), port (5432?), and db name in .env file.
```
