7. Configure database and API:
1. Configure database:
1. Change database host and port in keys `"database.host"` and `"database.port"`. For default local installation those will be `127.0.0.1` and `27017` respectively;
2. Change database name to the one you like in `"database.name"`. It will be automatically created on start;

2. Change database name to the one you like in `"database.name"`. It will be automatically created on start
3. If you've changed user and password to access the db, you should also change `"database.user"` and `"database.password"` keys, otherwise leave them `null` (default).
2. Configure Photos API:
1. Change `"posting.api.address"` to the one your API servers uses;
2. Run your bot using `python ./poster.py --create-user --create-album` to configure its new user and album. You can also use manual user and album creation described [in the wiki](https://git.end-play.xyz/profitroll/TelegramPoster/wiki/Configuring-API). You can also change username, password and album in`"posting.api"` to the user and album you have if you already have Photos API album and user set up. In that case you don't need to create a new one.

7. Add bot to the channel:
8. Add bot to the channel:
To use your bot of course you need to have a channel or group otherwise makes no sense to have such a bot. [Here](https://stackoverflow.com/a/33497769) you can find a quick guide how to add your bot to a channel. After that simply set `"posting.channel"` to your channel's ID.
8. Configure posting time:
9. Configure posting time:
To make your bot post random content you need to configure `"posting.time"` with a list of "DD:MM" formatted strings or use `"posting.interval"` formatted as "XdXhXmXs". To use interval instead of selected time set `"posting.use_interval"` to `true`.

Make sure MongoDB and Photos API are running and use `python ./poster.py` to start it.

Or you can also use `.\start.bat` on Windows and `bash ./start.sh` on Linux.

Examples:
* `python ./poster.py --create-user`
* `python ./poster.py --create-user --create-album`
* `python poster.py --create-user`
* `python poster.py --create-user --create-album`
## Tips and improvements
* It's better to use virtual environments in most of production cases so there's also [a tutorial how to put your bot into venv](https://git.end-play.xyz/profitroll/TelegramPoster/wiki/Configuring-Virtual-Environment) and use it inside the virtual environment;
* You may also want to configure your bot to work as a systemd service instead. There's [a tutorial for that](https://git.end-play.xyz/profitroll/TelegramPoster/wiki/Configuring-Service) in the wiki.
