vk to telegram forwarder

Powered by Telegraf

What is this?

It is a tool for express which using VK callback api forwards posts from group in channel or chat in Telegram!
Be careful, it doesn't sent audio and poll's(maybe fix soon).

Where I can see how it looks?

For example, this sending posts from Tavern of Heroes | Overwatch to Telegram channel Tavern of Overwatch | News,
Oleg Livanov - One man army trought Heroku to Telegram channel Oleg Livanov - One man army

Installation

npm install vk-to-telegram@latest --save

Example

const app = require('express')(),
    bodyParser = require('body-parser'),
    vkToTelegram = require('vk-to-telegram'),
    vkToTg = new vkToTelegram({
        botToken: token,
        chatName: chatName,
        ownerId: ownerId,
        vkConfirmation: vkConfirmation,
        vkToken: vkToken
    })
app.use(bodyParser.json()) // Must needed
app.post('/', vkToTg.send) // Now any data that comes here will be sent to Telegram

app.listen(80,()=>{ // For heroku users - process.env.PORT https://scotch.io/tutorials/how-to-deploy-a-node-js-app-to-heroku
  console.log('listening on port 80')
})

Why?

For example, because I had a lot of bot's and when fixing the bug is inconvenient to update the code in all bots.
Also, I have an idea to add discord channel support, but it's just idea. ᕦ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)ᕤ
