- Humanising chat bot for the Quaranteams system! And also better architecture for performance tuning
- Bypass the rate limit imposed by Telegram Bot API
- Decouple message handlers from messaging platform specific library
- Enable load balancing
- Improve horizontal scalability and elasticity
- No over-provisioning of hardware resources
- Stateless worker
- Deployment without downtime
- Serverless 🙌🏻
The cloud provider of choice is AWS, infrastructure is deployed using AWS Cloud Development Kit (CDK), refer here for getting started.
# deploy
pip install -r requirements.txt
cdk synth
cdk deploy
# clean up
cdk destroy
This deployment mode can be used when we are serving a small user group only and neither load balancing nor horizontal scaling are crucial, developers are expected to use this during development of the MX and Worker containers.
Create a .env file from .env.example and fill in with your own set of Telegram bot's credentials.
Feel free to modify the Dockerfile and docker-compose.yml files in the development branch to suit your own preferences, i.e. you might want to use bind mounts to reference your codes on host machine directly from Docker container. Refer here for more information.
# start up
docker-compose up
# stop and clean up
docker-compose down
# run this when your container has been updated
docker-compose build
Refer here for a list of docker-compose commands.
