Telegram Raffle Bot

The purpose of this project is to create a Telegram bot for managing raffles, incorporating a referral system and ticket purchases linked to a banking API.

Project Benefits

This project provides a streamlined way to manage raffles on Telegram, allowing users to participate through a referral system and purchase tickets securely via a banking API.

How the Project Works

The project uses Node.js and Redis to create a Telegram bot that facilitates raffle management, tracks referrals, and processes ticket purchases using a banking API.

Project Workflow

1. Setup Project: Initialize the project structure and dependencies.

   npm init
   npm install

2. Create Telegram Bot: Set up the bot to connect to Telegram and handle raffle commands.

   const { Telegraf } = require('telegraf');
   const bot = new Telegraf('your-telegram-bot-token');
   
   bot.start((ctx) => ctx.reply('Welcome to the Raffle Bot!'));
   bot.launch();

3. Implement Raffle and Referral Features: Add functionalities for managing raffles, tracking referrals, and processing ticket purchases.

   bot.command('buyticket', (ctx) => {
       const ticketId = generateTicketId();
       const userId = ctx.from.id;
       // Process payment through banking API
       processPayment(userId, ticketId).then(() => {
           ctx.reply(`Ticket purchased successfully! Your ticket ID is ${ticketId}`);
       }).catch((err) => {
           ctx.reply('Payment failed. Please try again.');
       });
   });
   
   bot.command('referral', (ctx) => {
       const referralCode = generateReferralCode();
       ctx.reply(`Share this referral code with friends: ${referralCode}`);
   });
   
   function generateTicketId() {
       return Math.random().toString(36).substr(2, 9);
   }
   
   function generateReferralCode() {
       return Math.random().toString(36).substr(2, 6);
   }
   
   async function processPayment(userId, ticketId) {
       // Implement payment processing with the banking API
   }
