Building for local development

Prerequisites:

1. Linux
2. Git
3. Docker
4. (optional) BrewKit

Firstly, clone the repository into your $GOPATH:

mkdir -p $GOPATH/src/github.com/nightnoryu
cd $GOPATH/src/github.com/nightnoryu
git clone git@github.com:nightnoryu/anon3anon.git
cd anon3anon

Then build the project:

brewkit build

# Alternatively, if you don't want to use BrewKit, you can do it the old-fashioned way:
# go build -o ./bin/anon3anon ./cmd/anon3anon

After that, copy the docker-compose.override.example.yml to docker-compose.override.yml and set the environment variables:

services:
  anon3anon:
    environment:
      ANON3ANON_TELEGRAM_BOT_TOKEN: 123:ABC # The token for your bot, obtained from t.me/BotFather
      ANON3ANON_OWNER_CHAT_ID: 123 # ID of your chat with your bot

And you're set! Use docker compose to manage the application:

# Start
docker compose up -d

# Restart to apply changes
docker restart anon3anon

# Stop
docker compose down
