Is relocating of event listeners available?

Shortly:
Is it possible to move bot.onText and others bot.on event listeners to another JS file? Making some structure, when few related commands(even listeners) will be placed in one file, and another few - in another file, and finally include these commands into main script where bot initialized with something like mybot.useCommands(ModuleWithCommands1, Module2, Module3) ?

Problems with keyboards

I'm following your tutorial but I can't create keyboards, however I can see them in other bots (eg. TriviaBot). This is the code (copied from you tutorial), I have no idea what is wrong. When I send "/star" I only see "welcome".

const TelegramBot = require('node-telegram-bot-api');
const token = 'XXX:XXXXX';
const bot = new TelegramBot(token, {polling: true});

bot.onText(//start/, (msg) => {

bot.sendMessage(msg.chat.id, "Welcome", {
"reply_markup": {
    "keyboard": [["Sample text", "Second sample"],   ["Keyboard"], ["I'm robot"]]
    }
});

});

Thank you so much for your help.

response with Web app button on inline query

how can I reply with the web app button of the bot?

    const results = JSON.stringify([
      {
        type: "article",
        id: "1",
        title: "Echo: " + queryText,
        input_message_content: {
          message_text: "You said: " + queryText,
        },
      },
    ]);

    /* something like this????
    const results = JSON.stringify([
      {
        type: "article",
        id: "1",
        title: "Echo: " + queryText,
        input_message_content: {

              },
            ],
          ],
        },
      },
    ]);
*/
    try {
      /* await sendMessageWithWebAppButton(
        chatId, // you don't have chatID on inline only on message
        "Open Web App using the button below:",
        "https://testbot.github.io/TONBot?id=32",
      ); */

      await fetch(

How do I strike text?

Hi,
Im writing a code in node js, using the "node-telegram-bot-api" library version"^0.64.0".

Im using the sendPhoto method... to send a photo... and in the caption im trying to do some formatting.
I am able to do bold, but im not able to do strike.

I have tried parse_mode = MarkdownV2, but it breaks.
I have also tried using a single and double ~ character.

let message = "*bold text*\n\n~strike~\n\n~~Striked~~";
const imgStream = request.get(imageUrl).on('error', function(err) { console.log(err); });
bot.sendPhoto(process.env.telegram_group_id, imgStream, { parse_mode: 'Markdown', caption: message,  })
.then(() => {
    console.log('Message sent successfully');
})
.catch((error) => {
    console.error('Error sending message: ', error);
});
}

Any ideas?
Thanks

Hi,

My bot does work on bot chat when we send message to it perfectly, but here is the issue:

What I'm trying to do is:

When new user join to the channel my bot send message into channel such as

Welcome to {channel_name} channel {user_name}

How can I do that?

Firebase deploy and tokenRefresh in bots

Hello and thank you for you amazing work. I love this repo: it allowed me, even if I was new to NodeJS, to create a Telegram Bot that I successfully deployed on Firebase.

I soon realized though that, after some time the bot doesn't get HTTP requests, it stops working for good, until I re-deploy it. Googling around, I came to the conclusion that it's a matter of Firebase token refreshing. Nonetheless, I can't find a way to make the bot successfully refresh it, since all the documentation I can find refers on website's user logins IDs...

Can someone help me figuring out some JS code to keep my bot running even after Firebase catalogs my current token as expired?
I'm using the JSON form '**.key' file Firebase provides me here

Thank you so much

I've tried to use it like:
console.log(bot.getMe());

<ref *1> Promise [Object] {
  _bitField: 0,
  _fulfillmentHandler0: undefined,
  _rejectionHandler0: undefined,
  _promise0: undefined,
  _receiver0: undefined,
  _cancellationParent: <ref *2> Promise [Object] {
    _bitField: 1,
    _fulfillmentHandler0: undefined,
    _rejectionHandler0: [Function (anonymous)],
    _promise0: [Circular *1],
    _receiver0: undefined,
    _cancellationParent: Promise [Object] {
      _bitField: 1,
      _fulfillmentHandler0: [Function (anonymous)],
      _rejectionHandler0: undefined,
      _promise0: [Circular *2],
      _receiver0: undefined,
      _onCancelField: [Function (anonymous)],
      _branchesRemainingToCancel: 1
    },
    _branchesRemainingToCancel: 1
  }
}

Thank you for any reply.
