TLExtractorBot

Extracts the Telegram TL scheme from the Android apk, TDesktop and TDLib, merges the three, and publishes the result to GitHub, Telegraph and Telegram.

Running

cp .env.sample .env          # fill in tokens and ids
mkdir -p secrets             # drop the GitHub App key in secrets/github.pem
docker compose up -d --build

Development, with hot reload through air:

docker compose -f docker-compose.yml -f docker-compose.dev.yml up --build

Importing an existing storage.json

Older releases kept everything in a single JSON file. To carry that state over:

docker compose run --rm -v /path/to/storage.json:/tmp/storage.json bot \
    importjson /tmp/storage.json

Database

Schema migrations live in internal/db/schema and are applied by goose at startup. Queries live in internal/db/query; cmd/sqlgen turns them into typed stores under internal/db — run it after touching either:

go run ./cmd/sqlgen

The generated *_gen.go files are not committed.

Admin commands

Sent from the chat configured as LOG_CHAT_ID:

Backup and restore

Every six hours the bot dumps the database with pg_dump -Fc and uploads it to BACKUP_CHAT_ID. /backup does the same on demand, into the log chat.

To restore, send one of those dumps back into the log chat as a document. Any .sql or .dump file posted there is fed to pg_restore --clean --if-exists, which replaces the current database. The restore is refused while an extraction is running.
