• Installing DB

  • MySQL:

    sudo apt-get install mysql-server
    

• Configuring DB

  • run DB:

    mysql -u root -p
    

  • Create new DB (etsiinfbot):

  CREATE DATABASE etsiinfbot;
  

  • Create new user (etsiinfbot:etsiinfbotpass):

  CREATE USER 'etsiinfbot'@'localhost' IDENTIFIED BY 'etsiinfbotpass';
  

  • Grant privs to user:

  GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON etsiinfbot . * TO 'etsiinfbot'@'localhost';
  

• Run migration (actually needed everytime a feature updates the DB)

./yii migrate

Running

In production environments it is recommended to use WebHook, but for testing you can use getupdates method.

• Using getUpdates()

./yii start/updates

TIPS

Add this alias to you ~/.aliases file:

• Start:

echo 'alias start_ETSIINFBot="~/REPOSITORIOS/ETSIINFbot/yii start/updates"' >> ~/.aliases

* and run:
```
start_ETSIINFBot
```

• Stop:
  • but if you run start_ETSIINFBot, instace of start_ETSIINFBot &, the better way to stop it is by ctrl+c in the same terminal.

echo 'alias stop_ETSIINFBot="~/REPOSITORIOS/ETSIINFbot/yii start/stop-hook"' >> ~/.aliases
