telegram_ros

CI Lint

Bridges between a Telegram conversation and ROS.

Only a single Telegram user can send and receive text, images and locations to/from the ROS bridge. A user must send the /start command to start a conversation. A new user can then /start as well and take over. Once connected, a user can type /stop to disconnect

Currently, there is no authentication (Issue #6)

Installation (from source)

Go to the src directory of your catkin workspace and clone the package from github:

git clone https://github.com/tue-robotics/telegram_ros.git

Install the required dependencies:

rosdep install --from-path -y -i telegram_ros

Compile your workspace

catkin build # or catkin_make (make sure to refresh your workspace env afterwards)
