Telegram bot for the Saint P Rubyconf

Hi!

This is bot challenge. For our conference we need to have an awesome bot to help visitors during the event. It's super easy to add new commands or implement those, which have not been finished yet. You are free to use sequel

Here are some features you can help to implement:

• Schedule
• Speakers
• Nearby places (places of interest)
• Post your pic to feed
• Quiz

Or you can suggest any other feature, which in your opinion might be useful for the event.

How to run

0. VPN or live outside the Roskomnadzor-controlled area (otherwise it won't connect to the telegram servers)
1. Clone git clone https://github.com/saintprug/saintpruby_bot.git && cd saintpruby_bot
2. Get bot token(Instruction)
3. Copy cp .env.example .env and replace with obtained token
4. Run docker build -t saintpruby:bot . && docker run -it saintpruby:bot

How to contribute

1. Fork
2. Implement a feature
3. Make a pull request

5 tickets would be given at the end of the challenge: 3 for most voted by community PR's, and 2 — my personal subjective preference. There are no hard limitations, do it for fun and to contribute community!

saintpruby_bot's Issues

Add `jobs` command

I have 2 ways of implementation this feature:

• keep information about jobs in text files
  pros: easy to implement
  cons: hard to modify
  But if jobs won't be updated this is the best i think.
• store it in a db(hm, redis maybe??)
  pros: easy to edit, add new jobs;
  cons: add new abstraction layer, harder to implement

@IvanShamatov what do you think about all this stuff?
