🛠 Configuration

1. Edit config.py file before use

• API_ID and API_HASH - Get those from my.telegram.org
• PHONE_NUMBER - Give phone number with country code (ex. +998901234567)
• NAME - Give any name what you want
• SOURCE_CHAT_ID and DESTINATION_CHAT_ID - Get those from @username_idbot

Example config.py:

class Config:
    API_ID = "12345678"            # Your API ID
    API_HASH = "your_api_hash"     # Your API Hash
    PHONE_NUMBER = "+998901234567" # Your phone number (with country code)
    NAME = "telegram-channel"      # Any name you choose
    SOURCE_CHAT_ID = -1001234567890 # Source channel/group ID
    DESTINATION_CHAT_ID = -1009876543210 # Destination channel/group ID

Note

Make sure to replace the placeholders with your actual credentials.

2. Create the config.py file

If it doesn't exist, create the configuration file:

touch config.py

🐍 Virtual Environment Setup

It's highly recommended to use a virtual environment to avoid dependency conflicts.

1. Create a Virtual Environment

• Windows

python -m venv myenv

• macOS and Linux

python3 -m venv myenv

Activate Virtual Environment

• Windows

.\myenv\Scripts\activate

• macOS and Linux

source myenv/bin/activate

Note

To deactivate the virtual environment at any time, simply run:

deactivate

📦 Install Dependencies

The script relies on the Telethon library to interact with Telegram.

Install telethon

• Windows

pip install telethon

• macOS and Linux

pip3 install telethon

🚀 Running the Script

To start copying content:

• Windows

python bot.py

• macOS and Linux

python3 bot.py

📋 Usage Instructions

Upon running the script, you'll be prompted to choose whether to load new messages or resend all messages from the source channel.

• Enter y to only copy new messages from the source channel to the destination.
• Enter n to copy all messages again from the source to the destination.

Note

If you interrupt the script and restart it, you can choose to continue from where you left off or start over.

🛠 Troubleshooting

• Make sure you have joined both the source and destination channels/groups before running the script.
• Double-check your API credentials if you encounter authentication errors. If the script stops unexpectedly, you can rerun it. Use the y/n prompt to control what content is copied.
