- Live forwarding and updating messages
- Source and target channels/chats/topics (one-to-one, many-to-one, many-to-many) mapping
- Incoming message filters: word replacing, forward formating, skipping by keyword and more

Obtain API_ID and API_HASH
-
Get SESSION_STRING
SESSION_STRING can be obtained by running login.py with provided API_ID and API_HASH environment variables. ❗ DON'T USE your own account.

Setup mirror forwarding config:
mirror.config.yml-example contains an example config: to set up a filter, specify the name of the filter (should be accessable from
./telemirror/messagefilters
) and pass named parameters with the same types but in yaml syntax. Example:- ForwardFormatFilter: # Filter name under telemirror/messagefilters # Filter string argument format: "{message_text}\n\nForwarded from [{channel_name}]({message_link})" - SkipUrlFilter: skip_mention: false # Filter bool argument - UrlMessageFilter: blacklist: !!set # Filter set argument ? t.me ? google.com
./.configs/mirror.config.yml
or.env
(limited) can be used to configure mirroring:./.configs/mirror.config.yml mirroring config overview
# (Optional) Global filters, will be applied in order filters: - ForwardFormatFilter: # Filter name under ./telemirror/messagefilters format: "" # Filters arguments - EmptyMessageFilter - UrlMessageFilter: blacklist: !!set ? t.me - SkipUrlFilter: skip_mention: false # (Optional) Global settings disable_edit: true disable_delete: true mode: copy # or forward # (Required) Mirror directions directions: - from: [-1001, -1002, -1003] to: [-100203] - from: [-1000#3] # forwards from topic to topic to: [-1001#4] - from: [-100226] to: [-1006, -1008] # Overwrite global settings disable_edit: false disable_delete: false mode: forward # Overwrite global filters filters: - UrlMessageFilter: blacklist: !!set ? t.me - KeywordReplaceFilter: keywords: "google.com": "bing.com" regex: false # treat keywords as plain text - SkipWithKeywordsFilter: keywords: !!set ?
