I wrote TGVCBot , Telegram bot+userbot to play music from JioSaavn and YouTube in the group voice chats. Here I am gonna explain how to make it work in your own VPS.
Deploy TGVCBot
First SSH into your VPS and upgrade the packages
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get upgrade
Install NodeJS Latest
curl -fsSL https://deb.nodesource.com/setup_lts.x | sudo -E bash -
sudo apt-get install -y nodejs
Install Yarn and PM2
sudo npm i -g yarn pm2
Install FFMPEG & Git
sudo apt-get install git ffmpeg -y
Clone The Repo & Install Dependencies of TGVCBot
git clone https://github.com/ArnabXD/TGVCBot.git
cd TGVCBot
yarn
yarn build
Setup ENV Variables
Knowing the Variables
| Name | Description | Required |
| API_ID | Your telegram app's API_ID. Get it from my.telegram.org/apps | True |
| API_HASH | Your telegram app's API_HASH. Get it from my.telegram.org/apps | True |
| BOT_TOKEN | Bot Token from @BotFather | True |
| LOG_CHANNEL | Chat ID of Channel/Group to keep logs. (Make sure to add VC User and Bot to the group) | True |
| SESSION | GramJS/Telethon session string of the VC User. Session Gen | True |
| MAX_DURATION | Set maximum duration of the stream. Default: 36000 seconds | False |
| THUMBNAIL | Direct link for default thumbnail (used if audio has no thumbnails). | False |
Simply copy the .env.sample to .env
cp .env.sample .env
Now modify the .env with your values. Use your preferred text editor
Run The Bot
Once you followed all the previous, now it's time to run the bot. I will use pm2 to run the bot.
pm2 start npm --name "tgvc" -- run start --exp-backoff-restart-delay=1000
this will auto-restart bot on crashes.
With PM2 we can start the bot automatically on VPS reboot too.
# save the pm2 list
pm2 save
# get startup command
pm2 startup
this will return a command. Execute that to start bot on VPS startup
