Hi to all, someone can point me how can i code a telegrambot for running shell scripts on rpi?
Tkanks in advanced

Are you sure you want that?
In my opinion there's no security in a bot.
A bot is excellent for notifications, not for actions.

I would consider a webpage with authentication and protection for execution of a script.

Hi thanks for the answer, but i mean preconfigured shell scripts by myself with defined commands, and only that scripts can be runned.
Thanks

Why do you state there is no security in DTGBOT?
It has the ability to whitelist only selected senders ID's, so should be pretty safe.

Why not simply do JSON call to operate Domoticz in a script?

TS mentioned telegram bot, didn't think of DTGBOT, sorry for the misunderstanding then.
