A Telegram bot that allows users to play Secret Hitler.
There is an instance running under @SuperSecretHitlerBot, but be aware that the bot state currently doesn't survive reboots and I reboot my server regularly, so you might want to host yourself.
See commands.txt for a list of available commands and descriptions. Note that some commands are only available to certain players in certain game states.
If you host a bot instance, this files contents can be put into @BotFather so that Telegram shows these in the command menu.
- (P) indicates a current president/presidential candidate.
- (C) indicates a current chancellor/chancellor candidate.
- (TL) indicates a term-limited player (ineligible for any chancellor nominations).
- (CNH) indicates a player that is confirmed not to be hitler (by having been elected after 3 fascist policies).
- (RIP) indicates a dead player.
To get the bot working, you need to create the folder config and place these files there.
- API token: Stored in
config/keybut withheld with.gitignore. To replicate this project, make a Telegram bot by messaging@BotFatherand pasting the resulting API key there. - Username: Stored without the "@" in
config/username. - Devchat: Stored in
config/devchatthe chat id of a chat where the bot sends its maintenance messages.
Secret Hitler is designed by Max Temkin, Mike Boxleiter, Tommy Maranges and illustrated by Mackenzie Schubert.
