# SyncThru Telegram Bot
![Example](example.png)
Receive alerts on your ink, tray, and drum levels of SyncThru-enabled Samsung printers on Telegram, and check their status.
## Installation
Simply clone the repository or download the files, the install requirements with
```
pip install -r requirements.txt
```
## Usage
Create a bot with [@BotFather](https://t.me/BotFather) and copy its token into the config.
You need to run `main.py` for information polling and level messages
and `telegram.py` for the checking feature
A printer may be configured as a static-ip or a dynamic-ip printer, in which case the software will attempt to find its local ip given its serial number
Do not edit the `store.json` file if you do not know what you are doing, or you may crash the whole thing.
## Configuration
Here is an explainer
```json
{
"printers": [
{
"ip": "192.168.1.2", // initial (or static) iè
"serial_num": "08HRB8GJ5E01R8W", // serial number
"dynamic_ip": true, // whether the ip is dynamic
"toner": true, // enables toner alerts
"drum": true,// enables drum alerts
"tray": true, // enables tray alerts
"alert_levels": [50, 20, 5] // the critical levels to which the alerts must be dispatched
}
],
