Telegram Rclone Backend

Telegram Backend for RClone (Still Under Development) Broken at the moment

Project is Dead

This is a backend for RClone that allows you to use Telegram as a remote storage service.

Installation

To use this backend, you need to have RClone installed. You can download the latest version of RClone from their official website.

To use this backend, you also need to have a Telegram bot and chat ID. You can create a bot and obtain the chat ID by following the instructions in Telegram's Bot API documentation.

Once you have RClone and a Telegram bot set up, you can install this backend by running the following command:

go install github.com/greengeckowizard/RcloneTelegram@latest

Configuration

To use this backend, you need to add it to your RClone configuration file. You can do this by running the following command:

rclone config

Then, follow the prompts to configure the backend. You will need to provide your Telegram bot token and chat ID.

Here's an example configuration:

[mytelegram]
type = telegram
token = <your-telegram-bot-token>
chat_id = <your-telegram-chat-id>

You can replace "mytelegram" with any name you like.

How to Test

Since this code is still in development, it is recommended that you test it thoroughly before using it for production purposes.

To test the backend, you can try running the following RClone commands:

rclone lsf mytelegram:/

This should list the contents of your Telegram chat.

rclone copy /path/to/local/file mytelegram:/remote/path

This should upload the local file to your Telegram chat.

rclone copy mytelegram:/remote/path /path/to/local/file

This should download the remote file from your Telegram chat to the local file system.

Note that the Telegram backend only supports files up to 2GB in size.

how to define telegram type in rclone?

Hi,
congrats for your work. I'm trying to understand how to add telegram as backend in rclone command https://github.com/rclone/rclone/blob/master/CONTRIBUTING.md#writing-a-new-backend

Do you have any reference from another backend implementation? If you don't have time doesn't matter i can read and try more or wait to production release.

does the current rclone already support "type = telegram" or need to use a dev version of rclone to support it?

As my understanding, the current rclone version doesn't understand the 'telegram' type?

installing the backend

I got this error when installing it .

https://pastebin.com/4E4AHa1g

Issue when Running "tsc telegram-backend.ts"

https://pastebin.com/pNKg6ra7

compile, Cannot find name 'rclone', express

 tsc --project tsconfig.json 
telegram-backend.ts:93:26 - error TS2304: Cannot find name 'rclone'.

93       const client = new rclone.Client();
                            ~~~~~~

telegram-backend.ts:115:26 - error TS2304: Cannot find name 'rclone'.

115       const client = new rclone.Client();
                             ~~~~~~


Found 2 errors in the same file, starting at: telegram-backend.ts:93

The compile command complains about can't find express, rclone.
Installing express with
npm install express
solves that part.
What package do I need for rclone? Tried
npm install rclone
and other similar named packages, does not work.
