Telegraminology - A Telegram Terminology Bot

A simple Telegram chat bot, that replies to messages containing (only) a SNOMED-CT concept id or an ICD-10 code.

Usage

1. Clone the repository: git clone https://github.com/haemka/telegraminology.git
2. Copy example.ini to config.ini and configure as needed:
   1. Get a Telegram bot API access: https://core.telegram.org/bots#3-how-do-i-create-a-bot
   2. Get a WHO ICD API access: https://icd.who.int/icdapi
3. Run via docker with docker run -v $(pwd)/config.ini:/app/config.ini . or docker-composei with docker compose up.
4. Invite the bot into any channel you like or messsge it directly and send a message containing a single SNOMED-CT concept ID or a single ICD-10 code.

Function

The bot (currently) needs admin access to a chat in order to read all messsages and reply by itself. Invocation by special commands (and thus making the admin permission for auto replies optional) is planned.
