Telegram Bot can perform following commands:
/switch - there are two available translation mods: synchronous translation (sync) and selective (selective). Selective mode translates messages if they are marked by MESSASAGE_MARKER in any place in the text. Synchronous translation translates all messages.
/status - show current state of variables
/help - show help message
MESSASAGE_MARKER - In selective mode marked message will be translated. List of markers can be provided with comma divider
DESTINATION_LANGUAGE - The 2 character language code into which the translation will be carried out. More in googletrans docs
TELEGRAM_TOKEN - Bot token which can be obtained from BotFather
CONFIDENCE_THRESHOLD - confidence level that the received message already translated to destination language. Messages with confidence higher than threshold won't be translated
Copy environment variables from example file and add TELEGRAM_TOKEN
cp .env.example .env
